No recovery. Cwm - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, new to Samsung but not rooting flashing etc.
Owned flashed on HTC onex/ desire. Xperias etc.
I rooted and flashed using the tool kit. Made first cwm back up using tool kit.
I can see cwm files on sdcard but cannot open them. Try to get into recovery with keys. Get reboot the weird screen flickering up in lines but no recovery. Turns of or reboots. Same if I try to flash recovery img. From apps. Rom toolbox. Rom manager etc.
I have a new rom on phone to flash. Alliance I think. AM I right in thinking that it flashes a new recovery with it twrp?. Problem is I don't ever flash without nand back up. Any help appreciated. P's I don't have external sd to put recovery on do I need one
Cheers all

just brought mobile odin.
try to flash recovery. freezes almost straight away then powers off.

Mobile Odin is useful to have anyway. I had a similar problem when trying to flash CWM and decided to go with TWRP instead as I was looking to flash Alliance, like yourself. It works but sometimes fails to respond to the Vol Up + Home + Power button combination and you have to release the buttons momentarily 5 or 10 seconds after booting and then press that combination again. You could try that trick with CWM too.

Download latest twrp in tar format.
Flash via pc odin and phone in download mode.

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.

[Q] HELP, I Soft Bricked my SIII (I747M)

Hey guys i'm new to the forums and looking for some help.
I've rooted my S3 succesfully and installed CWM as well as flashed the updates for it, but after flashing the CM 10.1 ROM i cant't seem to get passed the CM logo, the screen just stays black. I've been looking through the forums and managed to find some stock ROMs but for some reason Odin(3.0.7) keeps giving me a fail message every time I try to do it.
Please help me I would just like to start from scratch and give it another go, is there any sort of guide to just reset everything either using Odin or from recovery?
Thanks

I've tried flashing a few stock roms and they all fail using odin, am I doing something wrong? And i can't flash from recovery because ic ant access internal storage while its stuck at logo.
To use Odin:
Usb in the back of computer (#1 on a laptop)
Reboot computer
Phone in download mode (volume down+ home+ power)
Run Odin as administrator
Use a known good cable
After flashing back to stock, when you get hung up on boot:
Pull battery, wait 2 minutes, reinsert
Boot into recovery with button combo, factory reset, reboot.

When I try this it just reboots back into CM logo and again at the black screen, I am wiping all caches and formatting every directory.
I made some major edits, check those out

Are they in the .tar format ? You can't flash .zip ones in Odin. You can get them from the no tripping flash counter root method

I've restarted and ran as admin, tried multiple ports and still getting the fail message when I click start on Odin with my md5 file under the PDA slot, could it be a bad file?
And you have to extract the file one time after downloaded.
Maybe try using Odin v1.85?

Okay have you tried putting a rom in an ext SD card sand flashing from there ?
Sounds like you are using Odin fine, maybe a bad download ?

Yes I loaded some stocks onto an external SD, but couldent figure out how to flash from them, can only seem to access the internal storage using recovery?
With twrp I know how but I haven't used cwm in forever.
I think its install zip from school card and then choose zip from ext SD card

Yea I can't find it, not sure what to do next.
I tried using Odin 1.8.5 but still no luck.
Does anyone have any links for the canadian stock ROMs? Maybe I could try a few and see if any work?

No problem at all. I find twrp a bit more intuitive to use and that odd cwm didn't find ext card. Glad it worked.

[Q] Fail to boot after installing TWRP via GooManager

Hi,
as in the title - I tried to flash TWRP via GooManager. When I tried to get into recovery, it stacked at the samsung logo... i cant boot into recovery nor system. Download mode is the only option that works.
How to fix it?
phone: N7105
On download mode try to flash stock Samsung firmware using odin.
Damn... stock roms are uploaded mostly on hotfile.com, which is shut down...
I can't find any other mirror for Polish stock rom... Does anyone have it on the hard drive and could upload it? I would be greatfull...
Ok, I found stock rom. But now, I have bootloop... I'm downloading another stock rom and will see.
Any other ideas how to bring him life again?
Phils revovery has a tar file you can flash with odin I'd try that then flash anything you want

[Q] unable to install any type custom recovery

I was able to install custom recovery the first time i rooted my new tmobile 4.1.2 device, now after trying dn3 rom and reflashing between different FACTORY firmware flashes from 4.1.1 back to 4.1.2 several times i am unable to install any custom recovery through odin. Also tried using goo manager method for twrp.
Triangle away does not work for me.
I used stock recovery wipe /delete /wipe cache after every single time, with no luck to fix. Every time I try installing cwm or twrp(goo manager) it reboots as if everything is fine but still goes back to stock recovery. My binary count is around 12 now.
Am i doing something wrong?
This is the first time i encountered this. I have a usa t-mobile t889 but hoping the procedure to any fix is the same.
posting in here as this place is more active than tmob note 2 help.
thanks
