Hi all,
So I just did a mega wipe for my phone as i'm about to install a new rom and I flash TWRP 2.7 with Odin, but my phone doesn't get into recovery mode..it keeps staying on the logo.
It works when I flash philz recovery though...not sure what's wrong here !!
Any help would be appreciated..thanks

why don't you try twrp 2.6.3.2?there's not a big difference between 2.6.3.2 or 2.7 which will affect the ROM flashing so if one recovery doesn't work for you go back to the previous working version

Yeah singhpratik87..you are right, I was just going to say that 2.6.3.2 is the one that worked with me..just flashed it now and it worked. One thing happened to me now though is after flashing the ROM I got stuck at the Samsung logo..rebooted into recovery and did a wipe cache + wipe dalvik and still it's stuck...not sure what is wrong here

Hey guys,
So I just rooted my rogers galaxy s3 and I'm trying to install CWM recovery. My phone isnt on the ROM manager list so I tried flashing it through odin. I've tried about 7 times each with different versions of cwm recovery and odin keeps saying it was a success but whenever I try to go into recovery mode I just go to android system recovery and not CWM recovery. I have no clue why this is happening.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Zach

Btw i dunno why its not working it worked for me.. but i switched cuz CWM SUCKS get twrp bruh its touch and everything and it tells you how much battery you have while flashing...
Download goomanager off playstore... download some random rom (you dont need to flash the rom its only so it gives u the link to the open recovery) you will be asked if you have a recovery installed say no install open recovery they install TWRP on your phone done.. happy flashing

Had the same problems, follow this guide use the latest versions of everything (Odin, etc.). The key is the pulling of the battery after flashing and before you boot. Once I did that I got into CWM no problem.

This is probably the same issue i was having where the stock recovery kept coming back. You will need to rename or delete these two files.
/system/recovery-from-boot.p
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh

xD the thanks button is there for a reason
Hey guys,
So I've been trying to get back to a stock rom because I am trying to sell my phone now, but everytime I flash a firmware from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949687 using Odin, it gets stuck at boot screen no matter which one i flash even if it's pre-rooted or not. So is there any other way to flash stock rom without Odin or is there something I am doing wrong that is getting me stuck on this boot screen?
Thanks.
enter recovery mode and wipe data / factory reset.

I've tried that multiple times and make sure to do it everytime before reflashing the stock firmware, but everytime is still no good for some reason.

Before you tried using Odin to flash the stock or stock rooted firmware which
custom rom did you flash, and was the custom rom you flashed working properly
before you tried to flash back to stock or stock rooted?
Okay well after flashing this over so many times, the stock rom finally went through. Not sure what was holding it up, but no need to help anymore guys. Thanks.

Go to stock recovery by pressing volume up and power until it says booting recovery in blue letters at the top of the screen.
Wipe cache, then wipe/format data 3x or 4x and then try reflashing the stock rom.
Stock Rom provided by Jamison Download Here
Odin zip with All Versions provided by Jamison Download Here
Thank you Jamison and thank you to the one who said to wipe data/format, that was the right answer!!!
You are supposed to do it before you flash using Odin, DOH! :silly:
How long did the first boot take because ive done wipe data and stuff before and after and still stuck on logo screen
Booting can take up to 15 minutes after wiping data and cache.
If the phone still won't boot to the ROM, flash a stock ROM via Odin and perform a factory wipe using stock recovery before booting the ROM for the firs time.

since you already flash the GB via ODIN and got bootloop its OK
remove the battery/put the battery back/power on the phone/and boot to CWM recovery/choose factory reset/and reboot the phone
thats all
thats what im doing when i got bootloop using ODIN because of GB,,,.

Before you flash Stock ROM make a full wipe include /system ... you will not get bootloop , trust me
use prestine instead :good:

What is your recovery?
You can not come in?
If so, make a backup of what is without creating MD5 checksums then upload the rom again and restore only the data.

Here is my problem
My friend gave me his note 2 to fix WiFi it was already rooted
I downloaded slimkat and flashed it it worked good
And WiFi worked but he wanted a touchwiz look
So I downloaded jellykat ROM but didn't read the instructions and flashed with cwm
Got into bootloop then I flashed twrp recovery using Odin and reflashed the ROM but I got the fix root error and I swiped to fix
Then also bootloop ..I downloaded Dr.ketan stock ROM
And flashed philz recovery through twrp recovery and then flashed ROM also backed up efs
The phone also didn't boot stuck at bootscreen
Then I got frustrated and didn't know what to do I flashed the nd3 bl through Odin
And rebooted but nothing changed ..I read in Dr.ketan thread about flashing stock recovery and the bl
So I did all through odin and I rebooted but I had no recovery I tried flashing both twrp and cwm through Odin but also nothing
Now I have no recovery but I have download mode
I can Odin flash stock but I can't loose the data inside I really need the data
i think the problem is with the boot loader since i flashed nd3 bootloader and when device booted it didnt finish
so any ideas???
Why not any 4.4.2 stock firmware through Odin? Seems to be the easiest way to get the device started again.

Both won't work.
Download 4.4.2 stock firmware from sammobile and flash with Odin.
Data (if it is still there) won't be touched. Only system partition will be wiped.

Look, flashing with Odin is like getting an update by Samsung. Users would turn crazy if such an update would wipe their data.
Firmware is always installed in system partition and never somewhere out.
Besides: Photos and vids are mostly saved on external SD. Where are yours?

No, it is not the only thing, but you have messed around such a long time and to finish the suffering I suggest to do.
It is up to you to trust or go on searching for alternatives.

Well, two things you might do: Search for the truth about wipe data when using Odin or try to install any custom recovery to be able to flash a custom rom.

I KNOW that nothing of your data will be wiped, I have done it three times since 4.4.2 came out on 25.4.2014
First ND3, then NE1 and lately NE2.
This is my last post here. Good luck!

Any other suggestions before I flash 4.4.2 with Odin (currently 4.1.2) ?
As the title says i am trying to install the Saberkat 1.5 rom on my SGH-I317. I am using Philz recovery and i am on the 4.4.2 bootloader. I was running DN3 previously and attempted to do a clean flash to Saberkat 1.5. The installation of the rom goes fine, but when i reboot the phone gets stuck at the Samsung screen for 15+ mintues. I have gone through the Saberkat 1.5 forum post, but i can not find anyone who is having the same issue as myself.
Thank you for any help you may be able to provide me.

That is what i always do. I format everything except for the sd card, and wipe both caches. I selected no at the root screen, and it gets to the samsung screen and just sits there.

I had a similar problem when I first tried to flash DN3 v5 4.4.2 (from Skynote Air 4.3 w/4.1.2 bootloader). The problem was that I was using an old version of Philz (5.5) and it would always stick at the "Samsung" screen after the flash. I switched to Philz 6.41 and it worked fine after that. The only problem is that the backups are not compatible (6.41 can't restore 5.5 and 5.5 can't restore 6.41).
I will attempt this when I get home, will advise on the outcome.

4.4.2 is the only I had problems with not booting but Philz is the only one I can get every rom to boot
Funny thing, I tried to flash Saberkat 1.0 and it worked fine. Must be something with 1.5 that isn't working
