Having same issue with SGH-T889. Any help? Heard of similar issue with Nexus 4. They have revert recovery disabler. Not tried on my Note 2. Is similar solution available for T889?

After flashing recovery in Odin are you booting up the phone (or is odin - i.e. auto reboot is checked)? There is a file (/system/etc/install-recovery.sh) that you need to disable to have recovery "stick". There are a few ways to do this, but my preference has been to do it within cwm/twrp recovery via adb after flashing in odin but prior to first bootup of phone.
Hope that helps!

Ive had luck un-checking auto-reboot in odin, flashing recovery, wait for it to say pass, unplug USB, pull battery, and boot straight into recovery by holding home + vol up when powering on.
This can be dangerous so make sure odin is completely done before unplugging.

I have the same problem :/ i tried going back to odin and unchecking auto root as suggested, but whenever i clicked start it just stayed stuck at "Setup Connection" or whatever... i'm trying to install a custom rom and i just cant access CMW! I have the AT&T model by the way.

I know you can't access CWM Recovery..
Allot of us use TWRP Recovery and it works great. I think it is safe to say it is a Superior Recovery now. I suggest you use that Recovery.
You can get it installed easily by downloading GooManager from the play store, opening the app, hit your menu button and tap Install Open Recovery Script. That's it. Quick and easy!

For the people having a hard time, are you rooted? If you are just download goomanager and use it to install twrp

Finally got fixed
I tried by un ticking the "Reboot" in Odni and manually pulled out battery and cable and tried Recovery mode... it went smoothly as expected... thanks dude

This works when everything else fails!

Prevention Information ERROR

Hi i have the following error :
When i try to click on WI-FI button comes up the following
prevention information
the device has detected an application attempting unppermitted actions and has stopped loading.To protect your device it is recomended you reboot.
I have rooted my phone using the topic here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2258633
i had to load the
http://k0nane.info/rom/SGH-M919-UVUAMDB-k0nane.7z
file first cos i was getting an failure when installing the superuser using odin 3.0.7
my recovery is TWRP 2.5.0.0 and i am on wicked v1
Anyone else have this issue?

I had the same issue if you check the build number and the baseband version they are not the same. If you re-odin the MDL build http://k0nane.info/rom/M919UVUAMDL_M919TMBAMDL_TMB.zip again then WIFI should work again. I got it rooted after that by doing the following:
1. Load the OUDHS CWM-Based Recovery 1.0.3.3 for T-Mo GS4, via odin uncheck auto reboot and goto to recovery http://k0nane.info/rom/OUDHS-Recovery-jfltetmo-1.0.3.3.tar
2. Install Chainfire's SuperSU http://www.shabbypenguin.com/Android/Scripts/Nexus-Files/Root/SuperSU-v1.25+.zip then
3 Install [KERNEL] Stock Touchwiz MDB - SetUID Restriction Removed http://d-h.st/GcM
Between installs make sure you wipe the cache and davik cache
then you reboot you should be rooted with the newest update MDL minus the kernel lock

yes its not same the build and the baseband
Is it possible to be done using the twrp?
other recovery was little difficult?
can u send me the links i need please i just don't want to mess around and brick my phone
Thanks a lot

Check my post again, I couldn't get TWRP to work at first but it maybe i did not uncheck the the auto reboot box when I did that. Once the the recovery is loaded via odin you need to pull the battery then do the home-up volume-power to get into the recovery. I notice TWRP was a bit too sensitive and could not scroll down the list of folders to get to the zip files

I've tried installing all three recoveries using Odin, but for some reason none are working and now when I try and boot into recovery it just restarts the phone. Anyone know what I should do?

You need to uncheck the auto reboot box in odin, after the recovery transfer is complete pull the battery and unplug from your computer then do a boot into recover by holding the volume up-home-power button. If not rooted follow the instructions in my post above at the very least you need to load the kernel file

So I did that with all 3 recoveries like 2 or 3 times each, nothing was working I unchecked reboot then would just pull battery after reboot and hold vol up and power to try and get into recovery. Sometimes the litlte blue would appear in the top left corner saying "recovery booting" and would just stay there forever other times that would appear and then the phone would just reboot itself.
Anyway finally found instructions that allowed said to try checking auto reboot and f time reset so did that with a TWRP recovery tar and then it finished and rebooted. I then shut the phone off and held power and vol up to get into recovery and it loaded fine. I was then able to flash the chainfire superuser and kernel you posted. So Thanks a bunch man!

Have you tried any other recoveries like twrp or the regular cwm?

I found out the solution. After flashing done in Odin, just force into recovery mode without letting it boot to android, then we will see the CWM recovery, select reboot phone now then select Yes to disable from stock recovery on next boot.
Hope this help other user too.

No. Once you're in PhilzTouchReco you have to select reboot now. Then a question will appear, select yes. And try to boot in recovery again. You should be in PhilzTouchReco...

Which partition did you use to flash it??
Try this method
Go to play store .. Then
download rom manager from clockwork mod
and follow the steps.. That should give you cwm. Now flash philz recovery zip using cwm..
or if you are rooted
download goo.im app
click on menu and tap on open source recovery .. it will give you a notification for twrp.. click on ok and it will download and flash it..

you are doing something wrong...
4.1.2 should not have any issues with Philz recovery...
just flash the latest philz..using ODIN and use the pda tab to flash it..
use .tar file..!
if you still have issues rename the file.. remove .md5 and just make it .tar.. it works..!

Flash through phone if possible (not through recovery mode but from ROM toolbox or something.) It's more reliable.

I flash recovery, root and roms by odin for different devices I don't face this problem

I flash CWM into my device last time also had the same problem. Mine is N7105.
And I rooted + flashed CWM few of N7105 (belongs to my friends), also had the same problem.
But, I managed to succeed finally.
What I did was very simple. After ODIN pass, device will reboot.
When it reboot, don't let it pass the 1st screen. I mean by the time your device showing "Galaxy Note II bla bla bla", don't let it pass it into the 2nd screen.
Once it reboots, you have to as quickly as pressing vol up + power + home, in order to get into recovery, a.s.a.p.
after that, you can see that CWM is installed on your device instead of stock recovery.

Hello Vatsalbh9, follow the steps in video to root your phone.
1. Yes you need to root your device to use custom recovery.
2 & 3. You need to use odin first to get cwm recovery installed in your phone. Follow video steps.
4. When you have installed cwm recovery mode with odin, just go to recovery mode (keep holding vol up+power+home button until samsung galaxy grand gt i9082 logo appears on screen). Der you will see backup option. So make a nandroid backup in your external sd card and transfer that backup (clockworkmod folder in your ext sd card) in your laptop or pc for future use.
Download the files given in the description of the video.

Follow these steps for nandroid backup :-
1. Enter into recovery mode(vol up+power+home button)
2. U will see many options like - reboot system, install from zip, wipe data... Bla bla bla... And BACKUP AND RESTORE
3. Select Backup & Restore option.
4. Once u select it, again many options will come but choose backup on ext sd card/sdcard01
5. Nandroid backup will take around 5-10 mins depending upon your data size.
6. Once the process is complete, you will see a text written on bottom of screen 'Backup is complete'.... Go back to previous menu and reboot your phone.
7. You will find "clockworkmode" folder in your ext sd card. This folder contains your nandroid backup. Transfer this folder to another safe location like pc or laptop.
Note.. While in cwm recovery mode, use vol up and down key for navigation and power key for selecting any particular option.
Also dont increase comments for saying thanks, just press the thanks button
For installing any custom rom, download and save the rom, GApps in your ext sd card and flash them in cwm recovery mode.
Steps for installing rom will be given in respective rom threads but generally these steps are to be performed :-
1. Wipe data/factory reset
2. Wipe cache partition
3. Wipe dalvik cache
4. Install rom(zip)
Once installation is complete, install GApps
5. Wipe cache partition
6. Wipe delvik cache
7. Reboot your phone.
First boot of every custom rom will take a longer time to boot.. Varying from 3-10 mins, so dont panic.
Also some custom roms require latest version of cwm recovery, so before installing custom rom, download the recovery and flash it..
1. In cwm( if it is a zip file)
Or
2. In odin( if it is a. Img or. Tar file)

Redo the process.... I think cwm is not installed on ur phone yet. When you see pass in odin.. Just remove the battery manually... Wait for 5-6 seconds.. Den reboot your phone.. Once a normal reboot is completed... Den go to recovery mode....
Hope u get it this time.

Is the CWM provided in the YouTube link is latest ?
Cz if I want to install latest rom will it support ?
And is it necessary to flash supersu via CWM for installing custom rom ? Or only CWM is enough ?

No it isnt the latest version, but it will help you to proceed further. Once you get this cwm recovery mode, you can easily flash latest version as well.. And there will be a link given for recommend recovery in rom thread.
No it isnt necessary to flash super su as all cm11 based roms have inbuilt super su with them.

Seems like you dont have usb drivers installed properly in your pc. Does the ID:Com turns into blue color when you connect your phone to pc? If not then install samsung kies first on ur pc.
See d screenshot... The portion circled should be blue... Before hitting start.

1. Use this recovery by pawitp
2. Untick Auto reboot checkbox in Odin.
3. Once Odin shows pass, remove battery, wait 10-15 secs, re-insert and enter Recovery mode (by pressing Vol up +. Power button + Home keys at once until u see boot loader screen and release immediately).

Before you start odin kill kies at background using task manager else it will fail

I didnt immediately took off the battery... I let the fon boot after flashing... I think im making a mistake there... cz I had checked auto reboot in my attempts...

Now im gonna try by unchecking auto reboot option...
When Odin will display Pass, I will disconnect fon from usb and then take off the battery...
Will wait for 15 secs and then will try to boot into recovery mode...
Hope its all done... Fingers crossed...
And I have to release all three buttons(up+home+power)when galaxy grand logo appears... is it right ?
