Can't boot into custom recovery.

Hi all,
I have flashed my GN2 with CVM and when I reboot into recovery, the screen goes all jumbled up and then then it reboots and does the same thing and then shuts down. With stock recovery it was fine.
Tried it with TWRP and get the same thing. I've used Toolkit v3 as well to see if that worked but I can't get a custom recovery to work... re flashing stock recovery from Toolkit is fine and it works no problem. Anyone else had this issue? All I want to do is root and try CM 10.1 nightly but can't even get to recovery to flash the ROM. Is there another way to install a ROM? Odin? But then need a .tar of the ROM which I can't find, any help appreciated.
Thanks.
Are you on dll7?
If yes, new bootloader could be a issue

chenglu recovery link http://d-h.st/beT
do the recovery with mobile odin
He is for sure in DLL7. I had the same. Twrp 2.3.2.3 works great in dll7 but not the latest one.
Cwm does not work.

DLL7 is a reference to kernel version? What about the ROMs then do they have to be DLL7 compatible? Also where can I get the CM kernel and is that needed for CM 10.1?

[SOLVED] SCH-I605 Stuck on Boot Screen. Help?

Hey guy,
I was using CleanROM for the longest time. I've actually been using it for so long I can't quite remember how I got the phone unlocked in the first place. I want to say I used a combination of the Note 2 Toolkit and CASUAL to get there. I've been trying to get back to stock and now I'm stuck at the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 boot screen. I can get into Download Mode but I can't access Recovery at all. I've been using Odin(Which is where I messed up at). Things I've tried so far:
All of these will say they pass, but when the phone reboots, it still gets stuck at the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 boot screen.
Tried flashing the VRALJ from stockroms.net
Tried flashing philz touch recovery
Tried flashing both stock firmwares from sammobile.com for the SCH-I605.
I'm currently at a loss as to what to do now.
Any help is much appreciated. Thank you.
UPDATE: Ok, now when I try with one of the stock firmwares Odin gets to where it says Nand Write Start!! and it fails. Fails when flashing the Philz Touch Recovery as well.
UPDATE 2: Tried a different version of Odin. This time using Odin v3.09 and tried the VRALJB stock rom, it got to flashing the recovery.img then went to sboot.bin and failed.
UPDATE 3: Ok, using Odin v3.09 flashed philz touch recovery with Nand Erase All selected and T Flash selected. It went through successfully and am now able to boot to recovery. Seems that I was just using the wrong version of Odin3...I think...I hope...lol
UPDATE 4: Ok, so that didn't work. I was able to get into the stock recovery. But was unable to boot into android itself. Figured it's because there was nothing on it, attempted to flash a stock rom, and it still failed at sboot.bin. Attempted to reflash philz touch recovery, still fails. I'll keep trying different things, but I'm running out of things to try until I hit that insane moment where I try everything again expecting different results.
UPDATE 5: Ok, so I'm blind...or somehow didn't come across this thread before. But it helped me to fix the issue...so yeah. Thread link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2120726

In my case, when I install CWM recovery using odin, it installs sucessfully, but when my phone reboots after the download, and then I try going to the recovery, I still get the official Stock recovery.
Same

Not only you, many other users like us got the same problem.
When we install CWM using Odin with Auto-Reboot turned on, it says pass and reboots the phone. But when we go to the recovery mode, the Stock recovery is still present there.
Secondly, when we try installing CWM using Odin with Auto-Reboot unchecked, the phone freezes on the downloading screen after downloading it, so we have to remove the battery, put it back inside, and go to the recovery. At that time we can see CWM recovery, but when we reboots system and then later when we have to come back to recovery more, the stock recovery pops up again.
This kind of problems are being faced by many Samsung Galaxy Grand duos GT-19082 users.
It would be really appreciated if someone knows the solution and could help us.
Thanks!

[Q] Softbricked my Tab 3 7

Hello there, I was trying to update my Tab's firmware to 4.2.2 following the instructions listed on a website I can't link to because I'm a new member. I found it by googling "update sm-t210 to 2.4.4". It's on a website called techbeasts.
I was using CWM recovery 6.0.4.7. I installed the first file, listed at the bottom of the page, the "Kernel.zip file". It installed using CWM just fine, it's a small file only about 6MB. The second file I tried to install, the "T110 on T210/210R.zip" file failed. It gave me something about 5 out 4 expected args and didn't work.
After this my tablet would not boot, it would show the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 (not the animation) and then go black.
Next I tried to reflash using the 4.1.2 firmware from SamMobile using ODIN. This failed on the modem.bin. After this I couldn't boot in in recovery mode or ODIN mode. All I get is the, "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue...". ODIN still recognizes my tablet.
So I'm stuck. I've spent all night googling to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.
So I managed to use ODIN to get CWM reworking. But I've hit another brick wall. Now that I've got something to work with anyone have any ideas?

Install the latest CWM (6.0.4.8) and it you should be able to flash the rom correctly.
Thanks gr8note,
So I did what you suggested, I installed 6.0.4.9 and then lo and behold, the error went away! The ROM installed with no errors. One issue is the device no longer registers with adb, but fortunately the ROM was already on my device. The device is still discoverable with ODIN on my PC.
My new problem is now I can't get it to boot in to anything but recovery or ODIN. Even if I just use the power button it boots to recovery. I just got home from work and will be searching for a solution, but any more help would be appreciated!
Thanks again.

Flash the kernel again.
Sent from my SCH-I605
Hi gr8nole, thank you for getting back to me. I've seen your name all over these forums searching for a solution.
So I have reflashed the kernel I had originally downloaded, and also tried the blackhawk kernel I found on these forums for the sm-t210. It still will only boot to recovery. I have flashed several different recoveries to my tablet. I have tried two different ROMs - one from the website I mentioned above and the stock ROM from SamMobile - and it still will only boot to recovery or ODIN.
If you had a different kernel in mind a link would be greatly appreciated. Beyond that, any other advice you can give me?

j,
a while back i read a warning about sammobile images being screwy and to avoid them.
this was the image i used when i first got my tab http://d-h.st/users/Jamison904?fld_id=21912 the 1.13 gb img not the dump
hope this helps

Hey thanks for replying.
I ended up doing a huge facepalm when I figured out my problem. I was attempting to install the stock ROM like the other ROMs...through a recovery. You can imagine my frustration when I finally realized it was not a normal ZIP but instead had to be extracted and ODIN'D.
Duh.

[Q] stuck on the att logo screen

Okay so i received a new motherboard (NE2 firmware on 4.4.2) today and was rooting and installing a ROM when I got stuck on the att screen. I rooted using towelroot and installed CWM via ROM manger. Made a backup using CWM, then cause Im not used to the buttons to navigate I flashed phils touch. When i tried to flash another ROM i was getting status 7 errors, yes I did a full wipe, tried to toggle the signature but that didnt work either. My backup seems to hang on the att screen which i thought was odd since the CM screen was there after I installed CWM. Any help would be greatly appreciated. What can i do to fix this issue?
Factory reset and it should boot up fine. Need recovery.log for the status 7 error, but most likely either the recovery or the rom is old and won't flash.

fixed
it appears that phils touch was outdated and causing the issue. Doing a factory reset from recovery didnt help but I used ODIN to flash a current twrp and its all good now. thanks
