I was trying to install Cyanogenmod 12 on my Note 3, I tried installing the zip through TWRP recovery, and it just booted to my old stock screen, so I downloaded the associated recovery, wiped and installed....and now I think I'm stuck.
Booting into recovery gives a blank screen, and the phone does not boot since I've wiped.
Any suggestions or fixes?
Thanks.
Maybe I'm in the wrong spot, but can anyone help me?

Fastboot doesn't seem to find a device. I was trying to flash there but I'm not getting any results.

Okay I was running the older Thunderstick rom and I wanted to try out the new version. I downloaded only the update though and flashed that without realizing thats what I had done. So I am now stuck at the splash screen and I can't do anything. I have wiped data, cache, done a recovery, and tried to pull the battery as well. What can I do to get it off of the splash screen?
I go into recovery via the adb port if anyone is wondering. But even going back to the old recovery I can't get past the splash screen. I even tried another backup as well but to no avail.
Fixed the issue. Rebooted into recovery mounted SD card and put a new radio file and new rom on the card and flashed both over. Working now.
I've been shuffling through threads for the past 2 days trying to find a fix a no luck yet so i'm making my own noob post.
yesterday after flashing CM7 to my atrix, I was trying to install the Gapps package and after that install my phone wont boot past the logo screen.
Im still able to access fastboot and get into android recovery. I've tried to wipe everything and reinstall cm7 but still nothing.
i read that some people were able to get this issue resolved using command prompt and fastboot commands, but im totally lost when it comes to command prompt and couldn't get working correctly.
any suggestions or fixes would be greatly appreciated

Just to be clear:
1. You successfully booted into CM7 after installing it? Then you went to install gapps and couldn't get past the boot logo?
2. Or were you trying to install gapps right after flashing CM7 (i.e. stayed in recovery and did not boot into OS)?
i Successfully booted into cm7 then went back into recovery to install the gapps package and after that install it wouldnt boot past the logo

Hmm, well that definitely rules out an outdated recovery, which is what usually causes people to get stuck at the bootlogo. If you can't even re-install after wiping, then I would just restore a backup and start over.
Maybe try getting a fresh download of the gapps package. You may have possibly had a corrupted download?
Are you running CWM recovery or Rom Racer's? I had a problem where I was stuck at the boot logo while using CWM (latest one) but when I switched to Rom Racer's recovery and flashed everything worked.
I ended up having to use an older CWM recovery and wiping the phone and SD card with a lot of help from a friend of mine whos knows more about this than i do

How did you prep for the CM7 and GAPPS flash? If you did not wipe correctly, there was a first indication you might have problems.
How long did you wait after the phone first booted into CM7? If you rebooted as soon as the OS was up, that's more than likely your issue. You need to wait 10 minutes to let the phone build system files after flashing.
Also, an older CWM would have, if anything, caused more problems. If you had the latest ROM Manager or Romracer CWM then that was definitely not your problem, so your friend using an "older" CWM wasn't helping any.

I have run into this issue before when flashing any apps that update an app that is already there. I have found that a Dalvik wipe is needed before the flash. It is good practice to wipe Dalvik at least when flashing anything that changes the System Files. I also wipe the cache Partition before any flashes just to help mitigate issues like this.
So, I was able to successfully unlock my bootloader, got TWRP 2.6 on it, and put a few different ROMs on my machine; however, I have yet been able to install a ROM and get it to move past the boot animation.
I have tried the latest nightly ROMs for CyanogenMod 10.1 and 10.2 for my TF201, both of which get stuck in CM's boot animation. I just tried the same with the newest Baked ROM, only to be stuck in its boot animation as well.
I'm trying to figure out if there was something I forgot to do. I have been able to revert to a backup of my stock Jellybean 4.1.1 that I stored using TWRP, but haven't been able to use anything else.
Are there any thoughts on this? Have I missed something? I was able to use the unlocker utility and each boot offers the confirmation in the top-left that my bootloader is unlocked. I am able to enter TWRP from the recovery mode. Shouldn't it be as simple as selecting a ROM's zip archive and installing it from TWRP?
Have you done a full wipe before installing, including cache and dalvik cache partitions?

Try installing twrp 2.5. AS I just read in another thread there are problems with 2.6..

Factory reset
After flashing CM 10.1 nightly last night i had the same issue. I booted into my recovery console (flatline cwm) and performed a factory reset. This seemed to clear whatever issue was bothering the tablet. Still sat there for about five minutes on the animation after the reset but then progressed into setup.
Doubt if it makes a difference but mine was connected to the dock too.
If you're still stuck the method that worked for me yesterday was:
Used Flatline CWM as the recovery, installed using fastboot
Used an external memory card to copy the relevant zip files to my sdcard, recovery couldnt find them otherwise using adb push
Installed from zip using Flatline CWM
Installed gapps using Flatline CWM
Booted, got the issue you had
Booted into recovery, performed a factory reset
Told recovery to restart the machine
Booted into setup screen after loading for a few minutes
Been using twrp since rooting note II. I wanted to try out 4.4 PA but they said to only use cwm. It was late so I decided to be lazy and since I used to use rom manager all the time I installed it to flash cwm recovery then booted into recovery to install touch version. It wasn't showing the touch version so selected to restart to check to see where I saved it to it would not boot past the first "note II" splash screen. Battery pull then back into recovery and went ahead and flashed PA 4.4 and now it will get past the splash screen then shows boot animation but then starts all over.
Is this a rom manager issue?
can I flash twrp from within cwm recovery?
will I have to basically reroot it?
Any suggestions on how to get back to twrp and to a usable phone?
thanks
If you download a .zip of twrp and flash it you will have twrp for your recovery.
As long as you flash a rooted rom, you will be rooted.
Not sure what happened with the boot loop, did you by chance wipe the system without flashing another before booting?

Nope did my standard wipe cache, wipe dalvik, and factory reset then flashed rom then gapps. Going to go back to twrp and wait for 4.4 to be more stable before I try it out again and maybe then I can use twrp to flash it.
thanks for the help

Have you wiped data at all? You need to wipe data / factory reset when switching roms, and it sounds like you havent.

As stated above, on both cwm and twrp I wiped caches and did factory reset and still having the issues. Once back on twrp I even formatted internal memory thinking maybe rom manager messed something up on it and still can't get passed the splash screen.

Copy a ROM to your SD card (external not internal)
Install cwm and format data (actually full format, where /data/media gets wiped) and system
Install rom
Reboot
TWRP has some issues randomly with corrupting /data, that's why I no longer use it.

Finally got it. Thought using odin to flash back to root 66 and start fresh would work but after that it was still going to the splash screen then black and a battery pull had to be done. TWRP back ups would fail when trying to restore, so I reverted back to an older version of twrp and it finally let a back up be installed and it booted up just fine!!
thanks for all the suggestions
Im having a similar problem to yours, I am using twrp and flashed PA 3.99 the phone works great, but if my battery dies or i restart the phone or shut it down it automatically wont get passed the samsung logo, or sometimes the PA logo, the only work arounds ive seen to it is to wipe the cache and dalvik to boot, but when that fails i have to install the whole rom over again. any ideas?
My phone recently have gone into a boot loop, so I booted it into recovery and wiped it in order to reflash. But then, when I updated the TWRP recovery to the latest version, the phone stopped bootin into it. Now only the fastboot mode works, and when I try to boot into recovery, it just reboots. I am trying the twrp-3.1.1-0-kenzo on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro. How do I make it work?
When u flashed new recovery did you try booting it using key combo before booting to system

Of course. That's when it just flashes the red light indicator and reboots. In fact, there is no "system" to boot into, as I wiped it clean before reflashing the recovery.

Why did you flash a newer version of TWRP, instead of a rom? Reflash the working twrp which was working before you wiped in order to reflash.

I don't remember which version it was. I think, it was something 2.x.x, and I can't find anything earlier than 3.0.2 anywhere. 3.0.2-0-kenzo also does not work for me.
bro,Install twrp by this method.

I just switched my phone on, and it booted into TWRP recovery that I installed eralier! But all the storage partitions were showing zero size, so I reformatted them and selected "reboot into recovery" option. But it did not boot into recovery, and now it is stuck on the "MI" logo and the "Volume Up + Power" key combo only makes it reboot, just like before. How do I boot into recovery?
I figured it out. The whole deal was about dead battery which caused the device to fail to boot even the recovery, even when charging. It charged up a bit, and I sucsessfully flashed the phone.
