I had to restart my phone for some reason and on restarting, the phone got stuck in a boot-loop ( Samsung galaxy S3 i9300 ) text logo. I thought I'd reboot into CWM (Philz touch) and wipe to make things better. But the phone won't boot into CWM either, it showed the soft navigation keys and rebooted again, and kept running in a bootloop of trying to get into the recovery and restarting again.
So I tried to ODIN the recovery just to refresh if something is broken. It didnt work. Odin was success but the boot into recovery wasn't. I tried several times but no luck.
Then I flashed TWRP using ODIN, and voilah! i could boot into TWRP . I flashed CWM using TWRP and voilah again, i could reboot into CWM again . After thatI had to flash the ROM again though.
I do not know why it happened, but I thought I'd share the details just in case someone tries to google it.

You have to remember what exactly you have done before rebooting. Some times it happened with me mainly changing boot screen, battery screen etc.
I have been gone for about 9 months and I was satisfied with my Note 3 being rooted and using a stock ROM. So today I thought I would see what is new in ROMs. First thing was to load the latest custom recovery so I tried updating Goo Manager only to find a new program in the play store called TWRP Manager. I installed it along with a new version of busy box which was required and then installed the latest version of the custom recovery after following the instructions for using Sprint, Note 3, etc. Think it was 2.8.5
Well when I booted into recovery, it loops (stuck) with the message at the top saying:
Recovery Booting....
Recovery is not Seandroid Enforcing
Set Warranty Bit: recovery
Tried pulling out the battery but instead of rebooting into phone, it goes right back into booting into recovery and then i get the dreaded endless loop.
Any thoughts? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you can boot into download mode, just flash the recovery again with odin. Something may have been corrupted, you should be ok.
Hello,
I have been trying to flash TWRP to my SM-G925F and whenever I boot it says: "Recovery is not SEAndroid enforcing." (If this happens I just flash the stock recovery back and it works)
Is there a way to turn off "SEAndroid" or am I flashing the wrong version of TWRP onto my phone?
Please reply quickly because I would really like TWRP!

As far as I remember, flashing a custom recovery gives you that message. It's been like that for years which points me to the fact you're either new to Samsung or new to flashing a custom recovery on a Samsung

normal..which version you tried..
here is the guide

Hello, I am using the 2.8.7.1-zeroflte TWRP recovery for the normal S6 not the S6 edge, would that be the problem?
not if it work..that sentence is normal..as it's because of the system write protection / security from 5.1.1 you have to live with that
It's not as intrusive as In past devices eg note series that I have rooted. And it sure doesn't effect functionality. You'll be looking more at the home screen than a reboot screen (unless your a dev lol )
I am having the issue with my phone.... I rooted phone with a 5.0.1 recovery on 5.1.1 rom. Now its stuck in a loop at SAMSUNG Galaxy S6 Edge
Logo. With Recovery is not SEANDROID ENFORCING. Any one please help.
having the same problem! trying to install twrp 2.8.7.1 on my s6 flat g920I, with 5.1.1 stock! installing through odin, when i enter twrp get this message, and after reboot im stucked on a loop

How I can repair my smartphone if I already made it or it isn't solved? Please help
Hi All
Need an urgent help. While trying to root my S6 edge,India version! I think, I have bricked my phone. Its stuck on 'recovery is not seandroid enforcing'. Its only getting into the Download mode. But I have tried everything so far on the internet and no luck in fixing it. My variant version is - SM-G925I and the firmware was G925IDVU3DOK9.
Can anyone please help me with the steps to fix this issue!
Appreciate the help.
PS: Attaching the screenshot with the 'About the phone' details. Please let me know, if you need anything from my side.
Regards
Deeptiman
im trying to get my bricked s6 edge back to stock and just up an running again sm-g925f
was given to me in bricked state by my 16 year old cousin whom im trying to fix it for...
not sure if its rooted or what firmware it has on it now...
tried allsorts last 6 days, all new stock firmwares from sammmobile etc.
tried twrp etc
not sure what to do or where im going wrong.
odin wont flash any firmware file?? just gives fail after passing md5 part
This is the first time I do something to my phone using root access so had my own little adventure which I won't write about here but it ended with me installing CM13 but not having gapps installed because PhilZ didn't let me do that and just threw out some kind of error at me. I switched to twrp to try install gapps and booted into recovery mode, and waited, and waited. It just gets stuck on the RECOVERY BOOTING. . . . screen. If i try to turn it off and start it again it just keeps trying to boot into recovery.
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini - GT-I9195
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
