OK, I was playing with Flashify and tried to install a different recovery. Everything went well but the recovery [TWRP 2.1.8] was just acting funny, so I flashed a different version and since then the recovery mode just bootloops.
Phone boots up just fine except if I go to recovery then I have to battery pull and start my phone from Download Mode.
Any ideas on what I can do to resolve this issue? Possibly an Odin solution I'm assuming.

I would flash a new recovery with odin.
Yeah, I tried that last night and ended up fixing it.

Hi guys,
My N7100 was rooted and has been working fine for almost a month now. I have flashed several custom ROMs and have had no issues.
Today I restarted the phone to recovery and the phone shows the initial blue TWRP screen and then goes back to show Samsung logo and this keeps on repeating over and over.. meaning, can't enter into the recovery mode.
I am able to enter in download mode though. Downloading 4.1.2 stock ROM for my country so I can hopefully flash it through ODIN.
If possible I would wish to retain the ROM that's on the phone and use it as before. Any idea as to why the phone can't enter into TWRP? Will it help if I flash CWM via ODIN and reboot the phone after entering CWM?
Flashed CWM via ODIN and rebooted. Back into my custom ROM.
Not sure why TWRP stopped working all of a sudden. Anyway, all is well now.
For anyone who may go through the same, here is the topic to download CWM from.
So I was playing around with Kitchen and bricked my phone. Used Odin to flash back to factory and it didnt work. I can get into Download mode but when I try to go into Recovery it just constantly restarts. Any suggestions?

Odin the cwm or stock recovery again? Check your md5 before doing it. I goofed in a triangle away and recovery wouldn't load and would get stuck at the boot animation. I pushed recovery and everything started to work fine. YMMV.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
SO here is where Im at now. Got phone to boot and can get into stock recovery. Phone has no baseband and acts very sluggish and weird. Used odin to flash stock image again and it succeeds and goes like it is supposed to, but it doesnt do anything. Phone boots up into the exact same state as before flashing. Tried flashing TWRP via odin and same thing. Odin says success but no TWRP. I have tried 3 versions of odin and no luck.
My I747M started acting strange and failing on installs from the play store. It had twrp 2.6.0.0 and cm10.2 on it.
I ran a nand restore and it didnt fix the issue, so I rebooted into twrp recovery mode and went to wipe everything except external sd since thats where my downloads are. It started then the phone rebooted instantly.
Now all i can get is it will boot to download mode, but oden never shows that its writing anything to the phone, the % stays at zero, if i unhook the usb cable it just says it couldn't detect the phone no matter how long I wait. kies does the exact same thing.
If I try to boot back into recovery mode in twrp it just shows the twrp screen then resets. If I try a normal boot it resets at the cm boot screen just before the animation screen.
is it bricked for good?
Update: I downloaded twrp and flashed using odin. thats the only thing that will flash in download mode, from twrp I can flash a rom and it boots up and the phone works.
In download mode kies see's but cant connect to my phone for a factory restore. odin see's and can flash but flashing anything other than the recovery just hangs.
In twrp when I try to restore a nandroid backup of rooted 4.1.2 touchwiz it just crashes and reboots the phone and I start with the original post issues.
So two days ago I thought about installing Vision X rom on my Note 3 (T Mobile).
I downloaded the ROM and then backed up my current ROM (nandroid). I had Phillz touch recovery then.
Then I thought about going to TWRP and thus I downloaded the latest zip for my phone and flashed it via Phillz upon trying to reboot into recovery it got stuck in the screen "Rebooting Recovery...".
When I restarted it would still try to reboot into recovery and get stuck. I got out of that by going into download mode and then selecting "Restart Phone".
After that I looked for solutions and upon failing to find any I thought about going back to stock and starting from ground zero. I managed to flash the latest stock using Odin however I forgot to do a factory reset before hand.
When I tried to do a factory reset in my, now stock, phone it failed and then got stuck trying to get into recovery. It would flash "Rebooting Recovery..." then restart and flash that in a loop.
I have lost my root as well in the process and trying to root using Odin and CF-Root just get's me back in the recovery boot loop. I can use the phone OK however this is not a stable situation.
I'm sure I've made some serious errors in the tinkering and would like to get my recovery back. I really love Custom Roms. Any kind and knowledgeable souls out there to help me in my cause?

Go to the Playstore and download TWRP Coordinator and then
use it to install the latest TWRP recovery for your phone.
Once you can get back into TWRP recovery you need to flash
the cf-autoroot for your phone. Be sure you flash the CORRECT
version of cf-autoroot for your phone's model.
Good luck!

The app is constantly crashing!
It would start for a second then close. I tried the TWRP manager as well with the same result.
I've lost root access when I Odined back to stock, won't I need root access to install new recoveries?
Sounds like you flashed the stock 4.4 firmware and now need recovery to root. Flash this TWRP file using Odin http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/hltetmo/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.1-hltetmo-4.4.img.tar
Once you flash it, you need to boot into recovery to install supersu to root.
Switch off the Galaxy Note 3 (remove the battery and reinsert if needed)
Next, press and hold simultaneously Volume Up, Home and Power.Release the buttons when the screen flickers and wait for the TWRP menu.
Select Reboot, then System and install Supersu for root.
Once booted, open Supersu to update it and grant permission.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
Hello,
I was trying to flash the newest version of TWRP on my Note 4 by flashing the image within TWRP(as the instructions suggested). What I did not notice was that I had an older version of TWRP installed than the one recommended in the instructions. After flashing the image and reboots the phone enters the download mode, and I am not able to proceed into recovery mode.
I downloaded the newest version of odin and flashed TWRP using the AP mode. By utilizing the auto-reboot setting I was able to boot into the OS, and everything seems to work fine. However when trying to reboot into recovery I still get the download mode. Is there any way to fix this?
All answers are greatly appreciated.
Sorry for bump.
Anyone?

Are you Rooted, or are you trying to root using this method? If you're rooted download flashify and download TWRP, or CWM, or Philz for the device and it should be successful. If it's not, please reply back and i can see what's going on.
Thank you for the reply. Yes, I am indeed rooted. I tried flashing TWRP through flashify, but my phone still enters download mode when rebooting after flash. "Could not do normal boot" in the top-left corner. To make the phone boot into the OS I have to flash TWRP through Odin. This solves the "booting into the OS"- part,but when I try to boot into recovery I get the download mode aswell. I am thinking that I might have to wipe everything and re-install TWRP and the custom ROM(emotion rom MM). What is the best way of doing this?
