That works, TWRP works, but CWM just wont. I'm using a n7105 international variant, any possible reasons?
another weird thing, i can only flash TW based roms, like cleanrom etc. All CM and aokp roms will go through the flicker thingy and blank screen.
Help please! the reason i root is to do away with tw!
I'm having this exact problem and have no idea what the issue is. If I wait a while after the screen goes black I see the buttons light up and when I press them I get hapic feedback. So I'm assuming it's disabling the screen or something?
Yeah you are correct.
As long as capacitive buttons turn on and the phone vibrates, it means it has booted which generally means a successful boot but failure in screen.
Secondly make sure you do not flash N7100 roms on N7105.
They are too very different phones.
Additionally try cleaning cache dalvik data and system.
Also make sure recovery is for n7105.

I also had this flickering recovery bug. I was flashing CWM with Toolkit v3.0.0 and i think, the problem is in recovery version it uses 6.0.1.7). I reflashed it 3x but every time the same flickering. So i found 6.0.1.5 somewhere, and it is working like a charm.
Hope it helps
Same problem here. Would you mind if i ask for a copy of the 6.0.1.5? I would like so much to root my phone but cant go to CWM or the android system recovery.

How did you flash the 6.0.1.5 Tuxxperia? did you still use the toolkit or just odin?

I have a Koodo Samsung Galaxy 2x sgh-t989d. running ICS 404 .I have been attempting to root and run a custom mod.CM9
I installed cwm recovery and was able to root, but made a mistake and I dont believe cwm recovery was installed correctly as I was not properly in download mode when I ran odin.
Was able to achieve root, but phone had odd quirk that it would hang on shut down. Had to remove battery.
I installed cm9 but it hung on boot screen animation so i restored but the hang on shut off remained. I then attempted to reinstall CWM recovery again using odin. thinking it didnt install correctly the first time....bad idea
Result: now when I try to access CWM recovery the lines are double spaced and I cant do anything but reboot.
Is there a way to repair the cwm recovery or flash my phone back to stock?
I am a total noob and hope this is the right place for this and would very much appreciate any help I can get.
If you're rooted you can download ROM Manager from Play, it will flash CWM for you.

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately No I had tried to restore to factory because of the hanging on shutdown so I am stuck with the phone unrooted. I can access the CWM recovery folders via the sd card, so its really a matter of fixing the CWM install without root.
I have noticed that there is a koodo stock signed zip for my phone on this site which i have downloaded. Is there a way to flash that onto the phone bypassing CWM.
My phone is still operational and so I am a little afraid of making it worse.
If you can get your phone in download mode and connect to odin the you should be able to restore back to stock rom/recovery and perhaps try the process again..

Yes, I can still get into download mode and hook to odin.
Oddly I installed CWM the first time with odin, in recovery mode I believe, and it installed with an error but it worked.
Reinstalling CWM using odin in download mode is what messed up CWM in the first place, so I was a little afraid to try it again..
I clicked pda and pointed towards recovery.tar.md5 as per instructions that I cant link to yet.
so your saying I should try it again?

this is for soft bricked, but it's exactly the same process.

Side note: make sure you run odin as admin, less likely to get errors. And i don't know much about koodo but i would assume that you would need their stock tar file for all this to work

I don't know if there is an odin flashable stock koodo rom in the development thread yet. You could need that to do it..
However if you are having problems with cwm there is an odin flashable twrp in the dev thread.. Once you install that you can flash superuser and root your phone.. Or even go back to cwm if you choose to

It doesn't use .tar files and neither does cwm I think what you are referring too is .zip files..
Unless specified you can flash anything in this forum with twrp. Some roms require cwm but once you have a working recovery on your phone you will easily be able to switch from one to the other

Yes you need download mode to connect to odin..
Before you go further I just wanna clarify one thing.. Is it cwm on your device that is causing problems or are you just unrooted?.. Because if you are just unrooted then flashing a rooted rom will fix that

CWM is the problem if I boot into recovery mode the menu displays, but is double spaced and unresponsive as if its not loading correctly.

You must be in download mode to use odin.. Otherwise it won't detect your phone...Open odin then Hold Vol down + power the release power once your phone vibrates then connect it to your computer with usb.. Then you should be connected

Ok so I installed TWRP in odin mode as suggested and it worked. Now if I enter bootloader or recovery mode TWRP runs first hurdle cleared. so I will try and flash the new rom now.

Yeah i rooted my phone with tool kit than i flashed cwm touch zip since than its not doing anything. Now when i connect device the tool kit doesnt recognize any device.

Well... your last resort will be the jig. I will do a research to see if I can find a work around. I may be wrong but the recovery is on the same partition as the boot so flashing the wrong cwm recovery can brick your phone you can always try to send it back to Samsung they will fix it for you

I use the s3 qcom tool kit to root the phone ( i did exactly shown in video )
Than i downloaded the touch cwm , put it on ext-sd card
Reboot to recovery and install the zip
Installed successfully
So i choose reboot to recovery from cwm and than it never came back to life again.
If you downloaded the cwm touch from clockworkmod.com it should be an .IMG file not .zip and you can't flash it it's for manual installation.
I didnt downloaded it from clockworkmod , i got the file from xda , it was flashable zip file.
So two days ago I rooted + installed cm10, I was having some issues so I did a dark side wipe and re-installed cm10 after that I didn't not think I had wiped my phone properly so I went back and did the factory rest wipe... Well oops... Now my phone won't do a darkside wipe or install cm10. It just sits on the installing text. I was able to use my back up which also seems very bugged, when I try to restart it just sits on the goodbye screen (just one of the big things I've noticed). What do I need to do to fix this, please explain in laymen terms so I can fix this, thank you and sorry for my ignorance....

Hey guys, just got a brand new Note 2.
But when i flash a non-stock rom like CM the screen flashes and moves to the side and scrolls down (pictures in the attachment)
Even when i try to flash TWRP 2.2.3 (i think thats the version or 2.3) and CWM shows the same thing.
But when i Flash a Stock-Based rom like Android Revolution HD everything works fine, also TWRP 2.4.1.0 works.
So PLEASE help me!
EDIT : Although the weird stripes appear and the screen goes aside, after giving it a while to boot, it eventually booted to PAC ROM!
Had the same problem. Reason is uknown. I solved it by installing Thor kernel 0.15 LSI. First install cm10.1 and gapps then install thor kernel 0.15 lsi and reboot.

I always download Stock ROMS from Sammobile . Hope its ROMs contain all necessary files. So I do not think that bootloader is a reason for screen flickering after cm10.1 install. On my phone cm10.1 works perfect with bootanimation and without any issue with Thor Kernle 0.15 LSI. But without that kernel screen flickers after cm10.1 install.

I have tried both recently.... fladhing bootloader is a waste of time and will not fix . But flashing thor kernel fixes screen flickering issue. Flash thor 0.15 lsi . There is new thor 0.16 lsi ... have not tried that yet but 0.15 lsi works perfect.

This is a known issue for international Note 2 flashing non TW rom.

You can still use the AOSP rom, it will boot, regargless that horrific flashing boot animation.

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.

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.
