So I was playing around with Kitchen and bricked my phone. Used Odin to flash back to factory and it didnt work. I can get into Download mode but when I try to go into Recovery it just constantly restarts. Any suggestions?

Odin the cwm or stock recovery again? Check your md5 before doing it. I goofed in a triangle away and recovery wouldn't load and would get stuck at the boot animation. I pushed recovery and everything started to work fine. YMMV.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
SO here is where Im at now. Got phone to boot and can get into stock recovery. Phone has no baseband and acts very sluggish and weird. Used odin to flash stock image again and it succeeds and goes like it is supposed to, but it doesnt do anything. Phone boots up into the exact same state as before flashing. Tried flashing TWRP via odin and same thing. Odin says success but no TWRP. I have tried 3 versions of odin and no luck.

So two days ago I thought about installing Vision X rom on my Note 3 (T Mobile).
I downloaded the ROM and then backed up my current ROM (nandroid). I had Phillz touch recovery then.
Then I thought about going to TWRP and thus I downloaded the latest zip for my phone and flashed it via Phillz upon trying to reboot into recovery it got stuck in the screen "Rebooting Recovery...".
When I restarted it would still try to reboot into recovery and get stuck. I got out of that by going into download mode and then selecting "Restart Phone".
After that I looked for solutions and upon failing to find any I thought about going back to stock and starting from ground zero. I managed to flash the latest stock using Odin however I forgot to do a factory reset before hand.
When I tried to do a factory reset in my, now stock, phone it failed and then got stuck trying to get into recovery. It would flash "Rebooting Recovery..." then restart and flash that in a loop.
I have lost my root as well in the process and trying to root using Odin and CF-Root just get's me back in the recovery boot loop. I can use the phone OK however this is not a stable situation.
I'm sure I've made some serious errors in the tinkering and would like to get my recovery back. I really love Custom Roms. Any kind and knowledgeable souls out there to help me in my cause?

Go to the Playstore and download TWRP Coordinator and then
use it to install the latest TWRP recovery for your phone.
Once you can get back into TWRP recovery you need to flash
the cf-autoroot for your phone. Be sure you flash the CORRECT
version of cf-autoroot for your phone's model.
Good luck!

The app is constantly crashing!
It would start for a second then close. I tried the TWRP manager as well with the same result.
I've lost root access when I Odined back to stock, won't I need root access to install new recoveries?
Sounds like you flashed the stock 4.4 firmware and now need recovery to root. Flash this TWRP file using Odin http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/hltetmo/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.1-hltetmo-4.4.img.tar
Once you flash it, you need to boot into recovery to install supersu to root.
Switch off the Galaxy Note 3 (remove the battery and reinsert if needed)
Next, press and hold simultaneously Volume Up, Home and Power.Release the buttons when the screen flickers and wait for the TWRP menu.
Select Reboot, then System and install Supersu for root.
Once booted, open Supersu to update it and grant permission.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
I attempted to flash a custom ROM, which I've done on this phone a couple times, but something went wrong this time. If I can get to the recovery, I'll be able to restore an back up. When I reboot into recovery, the TeamWin screen comes up like normal, but then the phone goes into a boot loop and it never goes into recovery. I can get into downloader. Can anyone help me get into recovery?

Reflash TWRP recovery using Odin and try again. If that doesn't work, flash the root66 firmware, then make sure it boots normally as well as into stock recovery. If it does, flash TWRP from Odin (or use the Goo Manager app) and try again.

It worked! Thank you very much! :good:
OK, I was playing with Flashify and tried to install a different recovery. Everything went well but the recovery [TWRP 2.1.8] was just acting funny, so I flashed a different version and since then the recovery mode just bootloops.
Phone boots up just fine except if I go to recovery then I have to battery pull and start my phone from Download Mode.
Any ideas on what I can do to resolve this issue? Possibly an Odin solution I'm assuming.

I would flash a new recovery with odin.
Yeah, I tried that last night and ended up fixing it.
No O/S - can only boot into download mode
I've got an interesting one. I was prepping my phone for selling, decided to clear out all the memory. Somehow I must have deleted more than I meant to b/c when I restarted the phone, it just hangs on the Samsung screen. I can get into download mode, but not into recovery and nothing ever loads. I tried at least one version of installing CWM but it doesnt look like I can boot into recovery even after the Odin install appears ok. Before the crash, I was running a modded 4.4.2 rom with the bootloader and other things that come with it. Is there anything I can do to get this thing up and running again?
Thanks!
I suggest you flash a custom recovery and CM10.2 to at least get the phone up and running so you can confirm the bootloader and modem on the phone before flashing anything. Flashing the wrong bootloader, modem, or bootloader/modem combintaion could hard brick the phone.

Thanks. I'm positive I was running 4.4.2 on the phone before I decided to turn it into a paperweight
Flashing a custom recovery would be the goal, problem is that I can't find a recovery that I can flash. I've tried the latest version of PhilZ Touch recovery and that doesnt seem to work. ODIN shows it as a good install but when I restart the phone, I can't get into recovery. So was hoping for some direction on a different way of going about it. Basically, had 4.4.2, now I can only get into Download mode...
Download the latest tar.md5 file from here: https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/d2lte/
Open Odin, connect phone, uncheck everything except f.reset time. Flash Philz. When you see reset in the status windows, remove USB cable, pull battery, replace battery, boot into recovery, flash ROM.
There are different versions of the 4..4.2 so it is best to determine the exact bootloader.
Odin success on each version NB4,NE6 and OB6
Everything goes through smoothly, but it gets stuck on "rebooting to recovery" and never actually gets to recovery
I've flashed twrp,stock recovery img,chainfire, phils, none will actually boot
got this device from a person who said they tried to flash a custom rom and got it into this boot
all I can think of is to repartition the device, but cannot find a pit file that works
odin mode says write protection: enabled
if that is of importance
also tried the unbrick images on sd card, no luck
is there a way to make a bootable recovery.img sdcard? like how nooks can
made a pit from a working note 3 tmo, repartitioned, no go
What you are saying is that you odin successful, and it will not go into recovery, even if you force it to? After the rom image flash, are you in download mode and trying to flash a working recovery?

yes odin completely finishes, I tried forcing into recovery mode
loaded twrp,philz recovery, cwm, older versions of recovery, the current version etc.
no longer have the phone but still wonder why it was a no go
