[Q] Clockworkmod recovery won't boot up - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

I recently installed clockworkmod recovery on my friends Note 3 and when I tried going into the recovery to install a ROM the recovery doesn't boot up them goes to a black screen and boots up normally as if I just restarted the phone. Any help?

You may have installed the wrong recovery.
Check your download. If it's correct try odin again.
Pp.

I would ask for a little more information to help you figure this out.
What ROM is the device running? Stock? If so, that is the issue. In order for it to stick, you'll need to flash it via odin, after the flash, pull the battery, and manually boot into recovery mode and flash a custom ROM.
You'll need the "ROM".zip pre-loaded on the device before you do all of this.
Good luck.

Installed CMW, but only accessing <3e> Manual Recovery?

Hey guys, so I was installing CMW on my uncles phone, used odin , everything went fine, but when I went to go into recovery mode, it sent me to the <3e> Manual Mode recovery settings. Not entirely sure what happened, nor do I know what to do to get CMW/TWRP on his phone. Any ideas?
Used Odin 3.4, tried on my aunts phone, same thing. In download mode it says that the binary is custom, so IDK what's going on. I used this

method. Please help!
Bump? I really need help here!
Custom recovery is being overwritten by stock recovery on reboot. The answer is in this forum somewhere.
Turn off auto reboot in odin before flashing then after go straight into recovery then reboot into phone os
Download goo manager and hit the menu button and install twrp

[Q] Xposed, TWRP, Bootloop, Help!?!?!?!

Hello, this will be my first post here at XDA, and i will be asking for your help guys...
I am experiencing bootloop on my phone.
The thing is I tried to install Xposed Installer using the Automatic method that flashes to the recovery.
It reboots them...
It passed the Galaxy Note II N7100 black screen...
It shows the TWRP logo (The blue one)
AND THEN IT JUST REPEAT AND REPEAT the TWRP logo.
I can boot to Download Mode.
Tried removing the battery and tried to enter recovery again using hardware keys, same thing happens.
What can I do now? Please Help.
Thank You!
P.S. I am running DN3 4.3 Stable using it's stock kernel.

Well something was messed up when you flashed xposed installer( i don't know what you mean by automatic method) but do a clean install,since you can get into download mode,grab the twrp img.tar and flash it using pc odin ,then you can access recovery, do all the wipes again by going under "advanced" and reflash your rom.Now to install xposed go to xda thread for it and grab the apk from there (i think it's available on play store as well).You should have no more issues
Twrp
Like the previous post said I'm not sure what you've done. When xposed framework is installed there is usually an unistall zip created on the internal so card. If you can get recovery find it and flash it

The device is now fixed.
So okay, I followed the above instruction to flash a fresh TWRP. It does not work that way, it still has bootloop on the blue teamwin screen, what i've done is flash a .tar Philz specified for my device and then try to boot it. It boot and then it then flashes the pending Xposed script/flashable that I think TWRP can't execute that's why it bootloop. When it CWM successfully flashed it, I boot and wen't to homescreen. Then I now flashed TWRP via odin.
Thanks everyone, my Note 2 has come back to life.

Boot into Download mode and flash philsz touch recovery 6 and reboot device .. Everything will be ok>
Old thread may be old, but it's still relevant.
I just tried to install XPosed as well on my Note II and it did the same thing (mine's AT&T)
Info
Device: Note II
XPosed Version: 2.6.1
Install Method: "Recovery (flash zip automatically)"
Recovery Image: TWRP
Mine exhibited the same behavior as OP's, however after leaving it alone for a while to bootloop recovery as much as it wanted to, I came to my laptop, found this post, grabbed as USB cable, and I was just about to start the process of reflashing recovery when all of a sudden I saw my lock screen.
It took roughly five minutes of bootloop to get it there, but it successfully installed XPosed and my device is running fine.
So, for all the other Googler's out there that landed on this post, leave it alone for a while! See what happens. If it's still bootlooping, like, 30 minutes later, then try reflashing TWRP using ODIN. If that still doesn't work, reflash a new ROM using TWRP.

Recovery Fail!

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.

[Q] Phone won't boot into recovery.

I have been messing with my S3 lately and just tonight I tried flashing the newest compatible TWRP recovery so that I could run SlimBean on it, which is recommended, but after I flashed it, the TWRP recovery, my phone would no longer boot into recovery. It will boot into download and will boot normally. When I try to boot into recovery it shows the "Recovery booting...." text in blue but then goes to a black screen where I can't go any further. I have tried booting into recovery while completely turned off with Volume up + Home + power, with ROM manager and with goomanager. No matter what I try it refuses to boot into recovery. Any help would be very, very, very appreciated!
Where did you get the recovery? Get twrp from my sig and flash via Odin. Should get it going again.

I originally got twrp from their site the first time I attempted to flash it and also tried flashing it directly from goomanager.
Thank you, I'll try it right quick.
*EDIT* I tried the twrp you said to and it crashed my odinv3.07. I'm going to download Odinv3.09 provided by you and attempt it again. Any tips on changing the twrp file from a .zip to a .tar file?
There should be a .tar.md5 fir each version. Use that with Odin. The .zip files are for flashing in recovery, which wont work for you atm.
Sorry about the late reply but after I flashed the twrp from you with Odin v3.09 it booted right into recovery! Thank you so much!

HELP! my phone won't boot, no custom recovery!

I tried to flash stock rom for my sgh i747. in the process i flashed the recovery also in hopes that it would make my phone boot. now my phone still doesnt boot, stock recovery doesnt work, and i tried installing philz but that didnt work either. i really need some help here! my phone is on UCUFNJ1.
We will need more detailed info if you don't mind.
What were you on before?
What "stock rom" and what recovery exactly did you flash.
How did you flash?
You said it "still doesn't boot" but we're able to flash it, do you mean it just won't boot android?
Can you boot download mode?
What was wrong that made you need to flash the rom and recovery to make it boot, and how did it get to that point to begin with?
