Have you tried resetting with this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923956
With this you can flash the stock boot image back, and hopefully after that you'll be able to flash everything else you want.
Alternatively you could flash stock Rom and Kernel with Odin.
If you have Kies installed, make sure that it is not running while Odin is running. They don't like each other.
You said you wanted to flash a Rom, what exactly were you trying to flash? Are you sure it was the right Rom for your device?

[Q] Bootloop

Hi guys,
My N7100 was rooted and has been working fine for almost a month now. I have flashed several custom ROMs and have had no issues.
Today I restarted the phone to recovery and the phone shows the initial blue TWRP screen and then goes back to show Samsung logo and this keeps on repeating over and over.. meaning, can't enter into the recovery mode.
I am able to enter in download mode though. Downloading 4.1.2 stock ROM for my country so I can hopefully flash it through ODIN.
If possible I would wish to retain the ROM that's on the phone and use it as before. Any idea as to why the phone can't enter into TWRP? Will it help if I flash CWM via ODIN and reboot the phone after entering CWM?
Flashed CWM via ODIN and rebooted. Back into my custom ROM.
Not sure why TWRP stopped working all of a sudden. Anyway, all is well now.
For anyone who may go through the same, here is the topic to download CWM from.

[Q] Won't boot rom or cwm recovery - only download mode

Hi! I have encountered a problem, and really hope someone can help me!
Two days ago i flashed Omnirom Nightly on my n7105 to get Android 4.4. I was running cmw recovery but couldnt get the ota updates to work, so i was trying to flash open recovery instead. I used an apk that was supposed to install a script.
When i rebootet my phone, all i could get was the Note 2 boot image. It wont boot into recovery mode, or the rom. I am however able to boot into download mode.
Custom Binary download: Yes (4 counts).
Current binary: Custom
System Status: Custom.
How should i proceed? I've already tried to reflash cwm recovery, which did work, but didnt solve the problem. I am currently downloading stock firmware, but the file is 1.2 GB so it will take i while. Figured i should ask here in the meanwhile.
I'm not an expert at Android at all, im just a guy enjoying having custom roms and playing around a little. I do know that there are a lot of very talented people in this forum, and i really hope someone can help me find a solution. I've been googling for hours, but cant find anything that seems to work for me / or i dont fully understand and wont risk try before someone approves it.
Thank you, Vetle
EDIT: Is it correct that i cant flash any custom rom trough Odin? Or could i just flash omnirom again trough Odin?
If i manage to flash the stock rom and the bootloop goes away, will everything go back to normal, so i can flash cmw again and then a custom rom again?
No custom rom can be flashed through odin, as most of them are zip cwm/twrp base.
When u can only go to download mode, an official firmware only can help u through odin.

Thanks for the answer!
Yup, i have flashed a stock rom now and i got the stock recovery. Everything was working fine.
Then i proceeded to do a factory reset in the stock recovery and flashed cwm trough Odin. When it was done, it wouldnt let me into recovery again! I can still boot up the phone tough.
I've also tried Open recovery. CWM via Rom manager. Open Recovery trough Goo Manager... Still cant get recovery to work, the stock rom works tough.
Any ideas?
Okay, i tried to flash the stock rom again and installed Rom Manger.
It still showes TWRP and CWM under installed recovery and i guess these its these two who makes the problem.
My plan now is to figure out how to completely remove them. I've never done anything related to adb before, so i hope it possible to remove them in another way?
This is so weird. Somehow i managed to install CWM Touch via Rom Manager and it booted. When i choose reboot /pull battery it will only boot straight into CWM again. I tried to flash TWRP via Odin, wich sucseeds, but then it reboots into CWM again!
I am soo lost its almost funny!
EDIT: Since i could get into cwm now, i tried to flash omnirom, but it aborts and all i get is status 7...?
EDIT2: Latest now is that i suddenly managed to install TWRP via Odin, but i still cant install the latest omnirom, all it says is "updating partition details".

I had recovery problems in the last few days also.
Installed DN3 rom using philz recovery, because its capable of prepare the phone to a new rom in a easy way.
It all went fine until first reboot.
I had a recovery boot loop. All I could see were some buttons and then reboot again.
Like you I had download access and flashed philz with Odin, but no luck.
Installed twrp via Odin and all was fine, and flashed philz new version.
Then I had to flash a new kernel (to be able to access wifi) and it all started again. Now I'm back on twrp.
Let's see what happens on my next flash.
My suggestion is to flash the recovery, and if that's OK flash the rom and use it
Next time you need recovery get Odin to help, but not all the way from an original rom. Just the custom recovery.
But if you want to get rid of your strange recovery configuration, and you are not already on new 4.3 recovery(which in your case could explain some of the problems you had) , with knox, install an older original rom, 4.1, and make all the steps, root it, install a custom recovery, and from there the room you want.
Reading your path sorting this problem, that was what would do next
Best regards

My s4mini needs assistance.please help

ok this is quite the story, so grab some popcorn. ok so i rooted my s4 mini(SCH-r970) and i wanted to install a custom boot. so i used flash gordon, flashed the zip from rom manager (app) the boot animation enabler for samsung, but when i rebooted the s4 mini logo booted then the screen went off in a loop on, off, on, off so then i decided to use odin to instal cwm recovery then i flashed the samsung qmg enabler from rom manager (app), didnt work. then i went to s4archives and insalled their custom boot file to get by. didnt work. i tried all these other methods like"wipe dalvik cache then wipe cache" nothing works. and now im tring to find a way to fix it.
help?
Try flashing the stock kernel from sammobile.com
Try flashing the stock kernel from sammobile.com. i have duos varient and worked pretty hard to root it (Even bricked once), but then installed stock firmware from sammobile.com and did everything more sophisticatedly.....if your phone isn't hard bricked...keep trying every method you find.

sgh-t999v won't root

Hi,
I've an SGH-T999V, on stock 4.4.2 samsung touchwizz firmware. I'Ve try many things to root it, whit cf-auto-root, gehot exploit, and too whit cyanogen auto-installer, all the things works fine, in sense odin said all was passed. Same thing on the phone, example whit cf-auto-root i see the red android and the line said was in root process. Same thing whit gehot, saisd all is ok. Same thing whit cyanogen do congratulation was installed. When the phone reboot, ALWAYS on the stock firmware, same if i factory reset whit clockwork mod recovery that i've succesfully installed on the phone, too if i do a Know removal whit a tool found on the forum, alway on stock firmware. The phone wan't install any custom room, or rooting, but all the tools used said all was done fine.
Anyone else have idea of how to succefully install cyanogen? Thank very much!
Do you get a successful message when flashing cm with clockwork mod? Try twrp if you haven't
yes clockworkmod said success. I've tried to flash TWRP, odin said success,but when booting recovery, it like have never flash it, so stay whit the old recovery!
Unchecked auto reboot and flash again. When done, unplug and pull battery. Put it back in and boot recovery. When you flash SuperSU it'll stop this from happening.

config screen crashes after upgrade

hi i have a sgh-t999 and i just upload this tomhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2407883 the rom tusn on right but after i chose my language the phone crashes, and i cant even put the phone on recovery, somehow the phone just starts normal,
i believe that my mistake was, not flashing a 4.4 kernel with the rom but im not so sure if that the problem, now i cant flash anything via recovery odin mode works fine, buy im not so sure about flashing a new room and a kernel via odin
Flash custom recovery again with Odin and try to reflash the ROM.. Also make sure you are using the latest recovery version
