Yes its the 7105. And we are sure that we used the correct roms and cwm files from the correct section. rom manager also says that cwm is up to date but reboot to recovery doesnt work. it just shuts itself of. even with "adb reboot recovery"

Flash cwm via odin.

Try to connect it to your computer and see if Odin detects it. I don't think cwm recovery touch work on the i747

I tried odin but it doesnt detect. If i put in charge i dont see it charging but when i remove the battery and connect usb to pc there is red light , i dont if that means anything or not. I tried kies , odin . If u can give some idea that will be really helpful.

Have you tried this toolkit? If not give it a try. If it still doesn't work you may try a jig to force your phone into download mode
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
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.
IS this jig really works . I have seen videos on youtube but i wasnt sure if that works or not.
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

With this it will fierce your phone to enter download mode so you may be able to fix your phone via Odin, if it works . It is worth a try for 3.75

If it doesn't work with the jig return your phone on warranty usually they won't check if you rooted it and will fix it or give you another phone! Can you show me what you flashed?

CWM touch recovery work on att, I use the att version on my i747m. It's version 6.0.1.4
I checked on clockworkmod.com first to see what latest cwm is available for gs3 ..
If you press the power button for about 10sec does the phone vibrate?
Nope it doesnt vibrate. It doesnt even charge ...

I didn't know this thanks for the info ! so now that we know touch recovery works on the i747 you must have done something else while flashing it? Can you explain everything you did?

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.

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.

I guess its for N7100 model, right? I just dont want to mess it up again.
Also in odin - no checkboxes should be ticked except "auto-reboot"?

Just click the link and download page will have file description, and I am sure you will find model number of device for which this recovery is.
For Odin
Option remains same as you flashing stock rom
You can find instructions in details on 1st post of 'all in one n7100' on my signature.

Cant flash new recovery

Hi. Im trying install a new recover with odin. But every try its a fake sucess because when i went into recovery its the samsung recovery and not cmw, but with issues. None of option on recovery work.l, even restart. Ive try it to put a new stock build but it fails :/

Turn off auto reboot in odin ..
Press thanks if you like my work/advice
I was facing the same issue at first when I started fooling around with my phone.
What I did was, flashed cwm recovery 2-3 times and after a couple of times I got my cwm recovery to show up on the phone. Make sure u are following the guide correctly and correct options are tick marked in Odin.
Then you need to flash a fix through cwm recovery that removes the files and prevents stock recovery from overwriting cwm. After flashing this fix, stock recovery doesn't overwrite cwm anymore.
You can find the fix in the forums.

Clockwork Mod not staying

So just picked up a new Galaxy S3 AT&T as my old one had a cracked LCD. I rooted using Odin, boot into recovery Clockwork Recovery, installed superuser and rebooted. Afterwards I tried to go back into the clockwork mod recovery to install roms but instead of CWM I was greeted with the factory android recovery screen instead.. I tried rooting a few times, each time shows clockwork mod recovery but after a reboot it reverted. This use to work on my previous galaxy but this new one isnt taking it..
version 4.1.2 Just got it yesterday.. Any idea?

This is not the AT&T galaxy s3 forum. This is the GT-i9300 (international) forum. Top of teh screen is a "type to find your device" box, which you can use to locate the correct forum.
Or better yet, use the /!\ report button to the top right of your post to report it for a moderator to move it to the correct location.
Lol I did not read your post right :silly:
I do apologize I thought this was the US carrier.

Thread moved to AT&T Q&A.
Check for a file named /system/etc/install-recovery.sh on your system partition. That will try to replace the recovery when the phone starts in case it has been corrupted.
Try booting to recovery with Rom manager.

I've tried doing it this way. I have both clockworkmod recovery and Team Win Recovery Project just now.. clockworkmod works via rom manager but TWRP does not.. hmm booting into TWRP takes me back to the default android recovery
Root phone, install super user, restart phone, download rom manager, install latest cwm recovery, reboot in recovery, press reboot phone, disable flash of stock recovery, problem solved.
