Good afternoon everyone, I was at work today and I went to reset my phone and when it was booting everything looked normal and then my phone went straight to TWRP. I tried rebooting and it kept on going to TWRP. I tried to flash my backup and that didn't resove the issue either. When I power on the phone I get "Secure boot error" in the upper left corner. I have been using this phone with out any issues for the past month and now all of a sudden I can't do anything. I need some guidance on what I can do to get this phone just back to working order. thank you in advance.
You'll have to flash stock

Have you been ignoring the OTA update? Funny how after a certain number of times it will just run.
From where you are, flashing back to stock is your only option. Then grab the OTA update, install tarp & root.

I rooted my friend's Note-2 using ODIN awhile back, then installed TWRP recovery. He's been getting the message to update, it will go through the entire process, but when booting to recovery, it obviously goes to TWRP. After rebooting from that, he gets the message that the update didn't install. I've tried flashing an update.zip from a fellow member and it fails. So, what's the best way to get his to update? If I need to remove TWRP, how do I do that? If I need to unroot, how do I do that to and have stock recovery? All help is appreciated.

I have had my GS4 for a few days now. Its rooted and running DarthStalker. When I reboot the phone esp from TWRP it just gets stuck on the GS4 screen. Its most of the time sometimes when I reboot from the screen it fixes it self, Or do a full wipe. Do I have to odin stock again? I got it working by full wiping DarthStalker and reinstalling again.
I had this issue too, i even tried to use cwm and see if that fixed the problem but it wouldnt even boot doing a full wipe, i odined back to stock and rerooted , installed twrp and i have no problems now.

Issue has been experienced here as well. I may reinstall twrp if it continues and re-root if it continues after that. Good to hear its not just me

I dont think it would do any good, after installing cwm i couldnt do anything just boot into recovery. So to get it running i pushed twrp .tar file thru odin but still had to fully wipe everytime i reboot it. So i just odined to stock. I was a little scared as a week before i had hard bricked an S3.

Next time you have problems booting up normally or have bootloops for whatever reason, do a "factory reset"
in either cwm or twrp and nine out of ten times after doing that the phone will boot normally.

it didnt work for me, you even replied to my thread suggesting the same method.
I can't say I've ever been stuck on the Samsung logo, but I can't count how many times I've gotten hung up on the TWRP splash screen. :\

flash the zip in recovery.
I got the notification last night for the update to 4.4 and proceeded with the install, it rebooted in TWRP recovery started installing and then after 5 minutes or so it dropped back to the TWRP menu.
I tried a reboot but whatever I try and do it always boots into recovery which I take to mean the upgrade failed and something is wrong with the boot loader.
I've tried to sideload the full firmware but it just sits there saying waiting for ADB mode and does nothing.
How can I go about rescuing my N7?
Thanks for any help.

I dont know the fix actually. but its not safe to do an OTA update when you're not in stock(recovery)!
I had the same problem. Apparently TWRP isn't working with 4.4.
It seems to be a rule never to OTA if you're not on full stock.
Anyway, here's a solution to get you back to a working 4.3 without loosing data. I just followed the steps and they work fine:
Flashing stock factory image
Afterwards use one of the guides to manually upgrade to 4.4

Thanks for this worked a treat, never to be repeated.
Hello.
I have an AT&T SGH-I317. The OTA upgrade is being pushed, but my phone will not upgrade.
After the download, a Teamwin screen comes up, and after an error message that the "MD5 file not found", the TWRP screen appears, with no indication of how to proceed with the upgrade. I have just tried several different choices, including a factory reset, all to no avail. Before exiting TWRP, it advises that the phone doesn't appear to be rooted, and do I want to install SuperSU (which I've declined).
Can anyone advise as to how to go about the OTA upgrade? Using TWRP, or uninstalling TWRP?
Thanks.

From what I understand and my experience, you can't get OTA updates with a custom recovery installed. You need to have stock recovery.
There's a great post on going back to stock on these forums that has saved me a couple of times when I thought I bricked my phone. Roll it back and then give it a shot.

Just follow those instructions exactly and you should be back to stock in no time. Odin 3.09 cuts the flash time down to 3-4 minutes but 3.07 works just as good.

You shouldn't have fixed permissions, I'm not sure that works properly on LP yet. You will have to try a few things. Try going into twrp and doing a factory reset. Reboot and test. If still bootlooping, you will have to odin stock NK2 tar, then take the ota (and redownload) it again. Basically start from scratch LP.

Fortunately I can safely say you can go back. I have done it 6 times already, testing things Matter of fact I did it at 3pm EST and just re-OTA'd for the 7th time. Just pulling tars/files and just tried to make my first flashable zip. We will see results later soon I hope. If not we will have to wait for an official tar.
Thanks will try
Thanks, I 'm gonna odin KK... I really don't like stock LL... I need to learn to wait it out
