I think those are for the original build LE6 though.
Use odin to get your recovery installed but uncheck auto reboot.
When done unplug and hold power untill the screen turns off. Immediately let go of power and then press and hold Power + Volume up + Home. (Be quick)
When you see blue text flash on top of screen release power but keep holding other two until you get into recovery. (You may not have to keep holding home and vol, but its always wirked for me)
Now flash your SuperSU/Superuser and reboot.
Once booted delete/rename these files:
/system/recovery-from-boot.p
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh
This will stop stock recovery from being rewritten.
Now using goo or rom manager reinstall recovery again if you so choose.
Hope that helps.

I'm sure you're right, but while I have you does the toolkit work?

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.

Flash the stock recovery, or PhilZ, or TWRP, your choice.

I never said you need to unroot.
Just flash the twrp file.

CMW not booting up, after installing with Odin.

In Odin, the status is Pass and completed but for some reason when I try to do a restart to recovery, cmw doesn't boot up, only a black screen shows up. I'm on twrp because that's been working.
Any ideas on why cmw doesn't boot up?
Thanks.

CWM really isn't worth even worrying about; in my opinion, Philz Touch recovery trumps both TWRP and CWM, even though it is based off of CWM. It is more like CWM on steroids, with some TWRP compatibility thrown into the mix. Try it, you won't be disappointed, and you will soon forget about using any other recovery.

help!!! No OS

T-Mobile Galaxy 3 N900T
No OS. TWRP was installed and I thought I had ROM on SD card no. So now I have no OS. I tried the Volume up home on button but just says Galaxy Note 3 and that's yet.
I read some other posts but where do I get recovery image and how do I get to bootloader? via Odin?
How do I recover?

Where did the os go that you was running.you know it is power home and vol up at same time to get into recovery.

If all else fails download the factory image from samobile and flash it in Odin. Will lose everything but phone will be working again.

If you have to ask questions like that it really would be worth reading up on how to do this stuff. Unsure if you can truly brick it but better to be safe than sorry.

You can't really brick this way, although I'd consider it a soft brick. No os is simply that, no os. Uninstall your pc os and everything is still there, all your data is fine (given you keep your os and data separate. I.e partitions, which is android.)
Flash an os and you're fine

CWM nor TWRP will install
I succeeded in getting back to stock. I put the TWRP & CWM installed via Odin (Odin passed) but when I 3 button turn on it boots to the screen that says up volume to install OS and I go into Odin screen.
What gives?

3 button boot is for download mode...

For realizing I'm a moron! Somehow I missed the Vol up part! LOL

Seeing as how I haven't flashed a recovery, I've no reason to attempt recovery. Thought it was still Vol - and power like the s3.
No need to feel like a moron. If anybody should it's me lol

[Q] Bricked note 2 sgh-i317

Okay so i bought a samsung Galaxy note 2 on craigslist(not a good idea) and what the seller told me is that it was unlocked. well i got the phone and put my Tmobile sim card and it worked. i tried to do a system update which i kept getting a reminder for and my phone is now stuck on the opening samsung galaxy note 2 sign. well i took it to the cell phone repair places we have around here and none of them could fix it. apparently the guy rooted the phone to unlock it but the phone doesnt have a custom recovery. it can boot to download mode but thats about it. if anyone knows how to fix this i would greatly appreciate your help.

Not bricked. ..
Boot to recovery using the 3 button combination and factory reset the phone. ..then reboot. .
If the device sticks on the splash screen again. ..you'll need to push a new image via Odin. .
But the phone is far from bricked. ..it's just mad...g

Is the phone stolen? Might have been SIM locked.
I would try flashing a stock ROM onto it via Odin. If that fails you probably bought a HOT phone. Or it has hardware damage.
Sent from my SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app

It was unlocked when I got it... it had a custom rom on it and when I tried to do the update it made the phone do what's it doing now.. so what option am I left with? I already tried stock rom and nothing :/
Sent from my LG-P659 using xda app-developers app

So you have flashed a custom recovery? I can see that you said it did not have a custom recovery on it (but had a custom ROM?). If you haven't flashed the recovery and have not followed the flash to stock instructions (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2275844), then do so (be as specific as possible on the steps you've taken since it seems you might be a beginner at this by trying to update OTA a rooted device).

happened to me too. pull the battery. hold vol up and power and home and then insert battery. Keep holding till the 2nd time it reboots and you see the logo then let go of the buttons. This should put you into recovery. Wipe cache and wipe phone then reboot.
This worked for me, hope it works for you.

Trying to get into recovery mode doesn't work... I am a begginer at this. I tried pulling the battery out and doing the up home and power combo but that does not work.
