I can't seem to boot to recovery and I cant go to OS bc it doesnt have one.
Here is full story:
I wiped /system and /data
Tried to install an updated rom
Phone denies the ROM
Decided to update the recovery as well
Rebooted to recovery
Nothing happened
Probably bc I flashed it via zip, not .tar
Went to Odin or download mode
Tried to install rom
Didn't work (dm-verity issue or something)
Tried to install recovery via odin
Rebooted itself
Boots to Samsung logo
Can't go to recovery
Can't go to os
Only way is odin
Also before it booted to logo
There's a charging symbol which won't go away
I was thinking maybe a custom rom that can be flashable using odin would work?
but i couldnt find any

Hi I have rooted my UK i9100 with odin and successfully installed resurrection remix previously. When trying to flash an updated version I stupidly forgot to factory wipe and now my phone wont boot, it gets stuck on the rom boot screen and i cant get into cwm.
I can get into download mode and from there have tried flashing another rom via odin (litening rom) to see if that would boot to get me into cwm but that freezes on the boot screen also. I tried to use Galaxys2recovery as shown on zedomax youtube channel but then realised that is done from gingerbread only. I tried reflashing "CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXX_LP6-v5.2-CWM5" via odin and then the litening rom again but that still hangs when trying to boot.
Is there something obvious I should be doing? ..I am (unsuprisingly) a noob
Thank you
you could have asked at the first time itself, before various yourown attempts ?
if you are able to get CWM now, try to install the ROM after data factory reset and all the wipes + system format from Mounts & storage.
if it didnt help again go to CWM do all the wipes and format system, and switch off and get into the download mod and flash a GB stock rom from ODIN

that's the thing, i cant get into cwm, or at least i don't know how to. Is there a file I can install from odin that will put me straight into cwm without having a working rom?
why do you wait to boot the phone to get into the CWM,
didnt you try Vol-up+Home+Power while phone is off
I rooted my phone last night and installed Cyanogenmod 10. I had it working fine, but my contacts weren't loading. I tried to restore data from the recovery I had in CWM, but when I restarted my phone it's stuck at the splash screen now. When I try to boot into recovery, it goes directly into the samsung recovery instead of CWM.
I'm not really sure what I should try next, as I can't get into Cyanogenmod or CWM. Any ideas?
Use Odin and flash CWM recovery again. If necessary re-flash CM as well. Should work.
this is the i9300 forum
So recently i tried to update my twrp recovery and i used goomanager on my phone and i think i used the wrong file because after that file was flashed i can no longer get into recovery mode. Every time i get in to recovery mode it show in the top left recovery mode and then goes into a bootloop and repeats that even taking the battery out cant fix this because when you turn it on it does the same thing...i fixed this by going into odin and flashing cwm recovery md5 file which i assumed would replace the recovery on my phone...but it didnt and i no longer go into recovery mode or flash roms. I would appreciate any help on this if I can fix this problem somehow or if there are other ways to flash roms...i have been looking for ways to flash roms using odin.....Thank You
lol does anyone know what to do?

First mention your device name and ROM flashing methods differ with devices and you cannot flash any custom ROM with odin
just got same issue. note 3 sprint variant
i flashed twrp through odin and seems fine now.
Hey guys i was on a stock rom from a company that has loads of useless so attempted to install a rom this is not my first time and did that on my previous galaxy s2 a lot of times nothing new to me (this one is my mom's) the installation went completely fine but
the device wont boot stuck on the galaxy sII gt-i9100 screen
tried flashing all sorts of firmware through odin to no avail
tried flashing kernels still no avail
tried wipe data factory reset through recovery mode (tried CWM Philz TWRP) and it gets stuck at formatting /data
i am completely frustrated i have encountered boot loops and some sorts of problems but never seen this one
is there anything to do in this situation?
P.S. i do have access to download mode and recovery mode even though recovery mode doesnt do anything tried flashing says cant mount emmc
tried wiping and gets stuck
thanks everyone for answers
conect phone to PC odin and flash an rom from there. Put phone in download mode, conect it to odin and flash the rom.
Example original or neatrom rom
im on stock root and i wanted to hopefully flash a rom, but first i needed a custom recovery. On my phone, i downloaded Rom manager and it asked me to install cwm. it found my device and it downloaded and said installed successfully. i rebooted into recovery and from there it loops and boots into recovery non stop. i remove the battery and put it back in and it still tries to boot into recovery with the loop. (Semi-fix) when i remove my battery and boot into download mode. i can cancel it and it will skip trying to boot into recovery and load just fine. i can then shut down or restart as needed. but booting back into recovery will start the issue over again. i just want to know a safe way to have cwm on my note 3, or how to revert it back to normal. any help please?

Pull battery let it sit for two minutes. Push menu button, volume down button, and power button at the same time boot into download mode. once there flash a fresh copy of your OS which ever version of KitKat your running. You lose all your personal data, but your beyond that now. Then here is link to my thread should answer all your questions http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint/general/samsung-note-3-rom-flashin-basics-t2896440 enjoy !!!

Yeah ive said it a few times this should not be used
If youve bricked your phone you can get back into your phone by holding volume down menu botton and power botton at the same time when it pops up the warning screen to enter download mode hit cancel your phone will then boot up after your phone is on if you do not have a computer the way you fix the phone so you dont have to do this every time your phone is off you need mobile odin and a kitkat cwm.img.tar for our phone flash it and problem solved you can now boot into cwm recovery then if you want you can flash a twrp img zip through cwm or just keep cwm hope this helps
Ps if you Google mobile odin the dev gives it away on his xda mobile odin page

hi i am new to all this..i managed to get my sprint note 3 4.4.4 NK4 rooted and i read that i also needed a custom recovery so i used odin to install "philz_touch_6.08.7-hltespr.tar.md5" and it said success but when i tried to get into it it just says recovery is not seandroid enforcing i also used rom manager to get into it automatically but it just keeps looping saying same thing. is there a way out of this mess?

First, pull the battery for a minute then reinstall hold the power, menu, and volume down buttons at the same time and boot into download mode. The version of Phil'z CWM you flashed is to old for 4.4.4 NK4. Now download to your desktop the right Philz CWM recovery file (Phil'z_Touch_6.48.4-hlte.tar.md5 ) here is the link https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/hlte/ there are two listed use the second one. Flash with odin and you should be good to go. Go to my thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint/general/samsung-note-3-rom-flashin-basics-t2896440 for more info.
done exactly as you said and the same screen came up saying recovery is not seandroid enforcing and then it jumps to Philz Touch 6 so im assuming everything is right now...i really appreciate the help! tyvm
different rom
ok..i installed cyanogen rom..i also used titanium backup..i want to go back to where i was but i dont see titanium backup on there anymore..how do i revert back?
