Crap..I did a stupid booboo..I did a factory wipe through TWRP and forgot to install the new ROM. I let the system boot up after the wipe and now I can't access the phone or get into recovery mode. I try holding down all the buttons and it keep on booting me into the phone, but it in safe mode. The launcher keep on FC on me.
How do I access the phone so I can use Odin on it?

Pull battery and press down, hone and power button again til screen shows download mode. When you get to download mode flash stock rom of your choice.

I recently flashed calkulin rom 292 now this is were my phone screens only goto. Please help I also included pictures.
That doesn't look bricked. Bricked would be if you had nothing show up on the screen. If you try to go to boot loader can you? It should be power + vol down or power + vol up as u start up.
Go into recovery and wipe data then phone should boot also cache and delvik cache

Power + vol down should be recovery right cause if so it no longer goes there just to the Odin screen an say downloading

Power + volume up is recovery power + volume down is download mode. You are definitely not bricked though. If for some reason you cannot get into recovery just flash back to stock through odin.
Been there done that. Download a stock romm or the one click and instal with Odin.
You aren't bricked.
Good luck
If you cannot get into recovery just follow this video and you should be good to go. Make SURE and follow all instructions to a T or I cannot help you with any problems you may have.

I initially flashed the CM10 JB stable ROM successfully. The only problem I had was that I was unable to transfer files via USB to my computer, so I tried using the toolkit to flash the stock rom, but when it was flashing I got an error message that my phone disconnected.
When I turn my phone on I can only get into download mode. If i just press the power button, I receive a black screen.
I have tried using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1771687 to flash the stock ROM using ODIN but the phone freezes at the Samsung logo screen after the T-Mobile "4G Android" screen.
Any help is truly appreciated

can you get into recovery mode? if you can, try installing a rom from an external micro sd card (that you know previously worked)

If you got this far, then you need to do a factory reset.

I can not get into recovery mode. I can only get into Download mode for some reason.

How would I be able to do a factory reset only using Download Mode?

you cant. You need to boot into recovery. Trust me you can get in it, might take a few tries. Try to boot into recovery without the usb cable plugged in.With the phone completely off, and unplugged do the vol-up, home +power combo til it flashes that first screen, it can be a ***** but youll get in
Try turning the device off, remove the battery and leave it there for 60 secs. Make sure the phone is unplug from computer and the hit vol up, home, power until the phone vibrate then release. This should get the phone into the stock recovery.

I really do not think I will be able to get in. I have tried it so many times and even previously could only get into CWM recovery through the app on my phone to boot into recovery. I could never actually get in holding the vol-up+home+power.
Is it possible to flash CWM recovery through ODIN and download mode?
I'm not sure why this stock rom is freezing after I flash it through odin.

i would suggest trying a different cable and if ur gonna use odin again, wipe everything (especially /system!) in recovery before booting into download mode for the odin flash. would also reccomend tryin the legit stock rom in odin (unrooted) if its still freezing on you.
Flash with Odin again, then after it is successfully completed power down phone you have to hold vol up home and power until you see some blue text appear in the top left corner then factory reset from recovery

Yea getting into recovery is tricky if you don't hold the buttons long enough (let go too soon). These guys really gave you great advice.

If you couldn't get into CWM recovery before you screwed the rom then you just aren't doing it right.with phone off, hold up and home, then hold powered button for like 3 sec then let go of only power... but i think you are right the download mode skips the Samsung logo.the recovery puts up Samsung logo before booting recovery. Why can't you Odin a recovery partition ?

That they have, I took the battery out and let it sit for a little and tried it to get into recovery and it worked! I'm was able to boot up regularly after and I truly thank you all for the help because I was having a heart attack.
I have attempted to install CWM Recovery on the Samsung i747 (Bell Mobility). At first, I flashed the Recovery using Odin and could only access the stock recovery. I soon found out after searching the forums that the phone writes over the recovery on next boot with the stock recovery.
I then read that I should turn off auto-reboot in Odin and after installing the recovery, pull the battery and reboot directly into recovery. Upon doing this (holding volume up, home and power), I get a quick flash of the Samsung boot screen with the blue text at the top and then a blank screen for a few seconds, the phone vibrates and reboots normally. It seems like the recovery is corrupted and no matter how many times I re-flash the recovery in Odin, I can't boot into it.
Download mode works normally and the phone boots normally. I need to be able to fix the recovery, even if that means recovering the stock recovery.
Does anyone have any idea how I could do this?
Thanks!
Are y ou rooted?

Follow the proper directions for adb push of clockwork. Two methods easy as it gets. No need for odin past acquiring root.
Yes, rooted.
I am rooted now, yes.

As soon as you see that Samsung logo with the blue at the top, let go of the power button but continue to hold the volume up plus the home button until it reaches the recovery screen. If u don't let off of the power button at that point it will boot normally.
Hi guys, I know this question might sound stupid, but how do I enter the CMW recovery menu?
I tried the Home, Vol Up, and power button, but that gets me into Stock Recovery.
I tried, Home, Vol Down, and power, but that gets me to the upgrade menu.
I have flashed the CMW recovery, and only been able to get into right after the flash by holding down the Vol Up, Home, and power. The phone is rooted with the stock ROM.
Do I have to upload the CMW everytime i want to access it?
You are doing it right with volume up home and power but for some reason your flash is not staying. Try flashing twrp with goo.im and see if that stays.

Download Rom manager from play store an use it to flash recovery. Then do the vol+ menu + power or use the Rom manager to reboot to recovery.

Are you shure you are rooting right? Did you use odin to root, make shure that when rooting you dont let odin reboot your s3 after root remove battery put back, then press vol up vol down and power, after it vivrated let go, now u should be in cwr, now flash super su. If you let odin reboot ur s3, then you will not have root. And b back to stock recovery.

cwm not staying
If you have the stock ICS version, it erases and overwrites the CWM recovery every time you reboot.
Might be a good time to check Triangle Away at the same time. I believe each time you install the CWM Recovery it ticks the change counter too.
You will need to rename or delete these two files.
/system/recovery-from-boot.p
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh
use root explorer to rename them
Hey guys, I really need help here
i am trying to boot into recovery to perform a wipe. what i did was shut down, then power button+volume up+home to try to boot into recovery.
but i cant. It stops at the usual samsung boot screen(black background with samsung galaxy note 2).
what is wrong with my recovery?
oh and previously, i did a full unroot from superSU app.
Does your device boots normally?
Try releasing power menu while you see Samsung text on screen and keep pressing rest two.
If still it having same then flash recovery with odin.
