Well I tried installing a rom with twrp and for some reason it didn't work .....kept sending me back to twrp....and I had to odin stock and reroot....so I flashed rem ics and come to find out that twrp comes pre installed with the rom.......fuuuu.......the twrp I got doesn't even read my backup for some reason....so is there any way I can get cwm 5 mtd on my phone again or should I just try with twrp....I just don't trust twrp enough to try and flash with it....help? What should I do..

Marcus has linked in his Nyan Colonel thread the flash able to get back to CWM. Just make sure to uncheck inject twrp.

how you planning to flash this CWM zip without CWM already on your phone....are you using TWRP?
If your already rooted go to the play store and get goo.im app and from there install TWRP. In goo reboot to recovery and do a backup, then install the rom of your choice following there instructions. If your not sure do a search on rooting and installing roms.

Hello All,
Was trying to revert back to stock from GB27 rooted because my USB wouldn't connect to the computer (would charge only). I was on GB27 rooted. I couldn't use a one-click because the USB port wouldn't work. I had AGATs recovery 0.3.2 and hit wipe data and now I'm stuck in a boot loop.
I can still access download mode (but can't connect the USB) I tried reinstalling samsung drivers, multiple ports, multiple cables, different computers, etc. No luck.
I can still access AGATs recovery. Any thought on where I should go from here?
Thanks in advance!
-Tim
You can use Mobile ODIN.

Grab a stock Rom zip (like a deodexed for example but do not flash an aosp rom with that recovery) and dump to your external sd via computer or use adb push while in recovery. Then flash from recovery.
That should get you to the point of functionality.
Where you go from there will be your call.

This would only work if his phone booted. Pretty sure mobile odin doesn't work from recovery:silly:

Mind sharing what it is that you did so that others who may have this issue could benefit?

Of course. I know it was mentioned not to use AOSP but I had CM10.1 already on my SD card.
From recovery I flashed Wild for the night, booted and installed Mobile Odin and then flashed stock rooted odexed GB27 with a full restore / wipe data. I also updated Agats recovery to 0.3.5 which I understand fixed the boot loop with wipe data in 0.3.2.
Hope that helps someone.

I just got a Note 2 and downloaded Odin and a TWRP recovery and tried to flash it but it doesn't say succeed until two minutes later after the phone completely reboots. When I reboot into recovery its still the stock recovery.

Did u root it before you flashed recovery? You didn't mention it. That needs to be done first

Didn't need to. I got it to work. I unchecked auto-reboot and it worked. All I did was flash the TWRP .tar and flash a rom. Rooting first was not needed.
Agreed...
Root is not needed if a user wishes to:
Make a pure stock backup....or current rom backup...
Flash another rom that already contains root...
Recovery is generally only needed for those functions anyway...(that's 90% of my time spent there)...
Everything else is a bonus....courtesy of our generous development team....g
Anyone know where I can get the most recent stock system and stock recovery tars to flash in Odin or what they're called? I have to go back to full stock.
I cant flash a rom and have it work. I have tried several ROMS like aokp, jedi, smooth, jellybeans, etc and they almost always brick. Jedi worked but google services crashed back to back to back to the point where i couldnt even use the phone. does anyone know of a 4.3 rom that works on att sgh-i317?? i basically went down the list on galaxynote2root.com and tried them all but no success.
I have root, have TWRP installed and flash the rom and it bricks. i factory reset first, then install and nothing.
any ideas?
All of the roms on this forum work.. What are your exact steps?

Have they been tried on sgh-i317?
I did these exact steps:
Rooted phone and installed TWRP recovery
put AOKP Rom on SD card and booted into recovery mode
Wiped/Factory reset through recovery
rebooted into recovery
installed AOKP ROM
booted and bricked- hangs at "X" aokp bootup screen
Have you installed gapps after flashing an aosp rom? I am running carbon rom right now... Earlier today I was on aokp. I have used them all and I have a I317. An att note 2

does not having the gapps installed prevent the phone from booting? ive booted a rom before without gapps and it booted.
was there something wrong with my steps? did you use the aokp milestone or nightlies? where did you get the carbon rom? its all good?
I used the latest aokp nightly. And right now I'm running the newest carbon nightly. I got it from the op of the carbon thread.

What were your steps? what recovery were you using? im just so confused why my phone bricks every time
I'm using the latest version of twrp recovery. Try updating it?

Download your rom and gapps again using a PC...
Then place the files to your SD using a card adapter if no USB connection is possible...
Then fully wipe the device again from within the latest version of TWRP recovery and flash the new downloads ...
You may have a bad flash ...and you are not bricked...g

I did those exact steps and it did not work. i tried flashing pac man rom the last time and it got stuck in a boot loop too. I think there are some files that are corrupt or some temp files somewhere that are preventing a successful flash. my binary flash count was 9. and that was just on this run, ive tried flashing several times before. each time the only way to recover it is hooking the phone up to a pc and using kies to flash back to stock firmware. this sucks.
What version of twrp are you using? I have never had this issue you are having and I have flashed every rom on this forum for our device.

9 counts ??
Uh....yeh...not right ...
Have you messed with device partitions in ODIN ??
If so...something is definitely wrong ...
At this point ...you may want to consider a full return to stock and allow the PIT to properly restore your partitions..
Just follow the return to stock guide (sticky )...in the general section ..
Once restored to stock with a corrected flash counter you can begin again using CF auto root as your root method..
It sounds as if you have root issues and possible partition damage...
One other step you can try first is to boot into download mode and re-root using CF...
That may help....but certainly won't hurt anything...then attempt a clean flash again..
If it fails ...then the return to stock and rooting again seems prudent ...g

Ok ill try that. When I do the sticky method is that different than using kies to flash to stock? Kies is supposed to wipe everything and reload stock firmware. I agree the partitions are corrupt somewhere

Are u wiping data and system as well in recovery. If you're running TW and u switch to AOSP without wiping everything.....the results most likely wouldn't b pretty

I'm doing a factory reset--> "swipe to wipe". Do I need to do something else?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
Kies is not the method I use in returning to stock...as I don't trust it..
Odin is my first choice ...
Using Odin to flash a factory rom will wipe everything as well ...and is far more reliable ...IMHO...g

OK, so i followed these steps perfectly and it did not work. GOt Stuck in a boot loop again. something is corrupt. i used the latest version of clockwork mod and tried to install the latest AOKP nightlies. :crying:
Alright ...
Do you mean that you returned to stock ??
And have rooted again ...??
If yes ..we can dig deeper ...and if not ...proceed with full unroot...g
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I used the sticky on turning your phone back to stock which used odin. I followed that list perfectly which said to flash stock using odin, root using cf then using triangle away, then super user to fully unroot. Then I installed clockword mod recovery, booted to recovery mode, cleared all cache and davlik and factory reset again, then installed the aokp and it got stuck in a boot loop

Here's what I do with twrp when flashing a rom.
Go to wipe menu and then advanced wipe and select dalvik, cache, data, system and internal(optional). I do it three times to make sure. then flash your rom with gapps (if aosp)
