Thanks!
I installed Goo manager and chose "boot into recovery" and it worked like a charm. TWRP was right there. I don't know why I couldn't with the 3 finger salute.......

The easiest thing to try would be reflashing the recovery. You can easily do this using Rom manager. If you were on clockwork, just select flash clockworkmod recovery. If you were using Amon, select flash alternate recovery. After that completes, try booting to recovery again. See if that takes care of it for you.
Use ROM Manager to reflash your recovery.
Ok i got it now, i really appreciate ur help guys i was getting nervous for a sec lol

I have the same issue, can I just flash twrp without unrooting first and just flash using odin on top of my existing root.
I am not sure how a root on an existing root will work. Thanks
I have rooted N1705 and have same problem. I really would like to know what's this all about since this is my first phone with this kind of a problem. Only workaround for me was that i installed ROM Manager, updated CWM and flashed into it via the manager. The key shortcut did not work on either CWM or TWRP.

Flash the stock recovery, or PhilZ, or TWRP, your choice.

I never said you need to unroot.
Just flash the twrp file.

You may have selected the option to just flash the insecure boot image + root + install busybox. You can go back and flash just the recovery or flash it using Goomanager from the Play Store

I don't suppose you would care to elaborate?
Okay, i went through the toolkit and tried the all in one. It went through for the root and everything seemed good. Then it said to do the recovery through ODIN which I did but everytime i boot into recovery, it's the stock recovery.
Oh. Go into recovery before the phone has a chance to reboot.
I got it finally. I restored the phone then tried it again and it worked fine. Thank you all.

I used goo manager to download and install the latest recovery. Every time I go to boot into recovery it gets to the load screen where the blue letters are at the top but then it vibrates two or three times then reboots the phone like normal. My phone is rooted but not sure why it's doing this....help would be appreciated.

Have you tried flashing TWRP via Odin?
Have you tried to install twrp again?
Try installing cwm (you can use the ROM manager app) and see if that boots. Then try using too to install twrp again.
Sent from your phone. You should be careful where you leave that thing.
I haven't tried using Odin yet. I will give that a try. I was hoping I could do it without having to use a computer. I have tried reinstalling twrp using goo manager without success.

Switch to cwm to make sure the recovery partition of the storage is okay. Install cwm via the ROM manager app and make sure you can get into SOME recovery. Then try to install twrp again from too. Switching to another recovery was an important step in that process.

Finally got twrp installed! Goo manager and Rom manager did not work for me....they both would not boot into recovery. I had to use Odin mobile and install the recovery then it would boot. Thank everyone that helped out. Hope this can help someone else.

This is a little late here, but I an others have had trouble booting into recovery after flashing ROMs like the leaked 4.3.
It behaved just like the above when I was trying to get into recovery to restore a nandriod - even after a battery pull for 1 minute. I put in into Download mode, then did a battery pull. After that, it went into recovery with no problem.
Note - if Goo Manager installed 2.5.0.3 - that could be part of the problem, as there are issues with it. I went back to 2.5.0.2.
I think some 4.3 roms make you loose root also read their op.

Omega 1.0 was the first one to indicate it was rooted - but it unrooted me. It was when I initially tried to restore a nandriod when I could not get into recovery. I had read about others not being able to get into recovery after flashing 4.3 also.
Is it possible to flash twrp or cwm without odin? I know you can download Rom manager and use it to flash cwm but it wouldn't boot into recovery afterwards just went into a boot loop

I guess I'll go with no which I assumed would be the answer

You can flash TWRP without ODIN if your phone is rooted.
Go to the playstore and download "goomanager" a free app
and click the menu softkey on left side of phone then select
"flash open recovery script".
Then wait til it gets done and when it's done just reboot the phone.
That's the easiest way to do it and TWRP is way better than cwm.
Good luck!
Awesome thank you so much you da best
