trying to root device cant get into TWRP recovery - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl

So I ran the cf-autoroot thru odin, ran successfully and it rebooted. I then went and clicked on superuser and get the message There is no SU Binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem. So I went and downloaded TWRP 2.6.3.3. Went back into odin clicked my file in downloads and it looks like it installed it. I power off device then I hold down power and up volume and instead of going into any kind of recovery, of course I was hoping for TWRP so I can reinstall superuser from zip file. I have used TWRP on other devices all it does is reboot into my device and never opens up any recovery. If I hold down the down volume of course it correctly goes into odin after then holding the up volume. Does anyone know what im doing wrong...cant figure this one out. thanks

Figured it it *** can can thread, thx

flash twrp through odin.
1. odin flash cf autoroot
2.reboots
3.back to odin flash twrp
4. then go to twrp to flash the super user file or flash a custom rom which already has it.

[Solved + open question] Flashed to Stock 4.3, no data, custom recovery wont stick

So I had android 4.1.2 with root, keep getting the updates, so I went and found the 4.3 rooted rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541900). I have stock recovery, but I was able to get rom manager to install it (since I had supersu). Flash it last night, then flashed the wif fix. After I installed the 4.3 rom, my phone was telling me to still update, not sure why.
So now my phone is stuck in this weird state.
No root access
4.3 installed (MK3)
Looks like the previous stock recovery (doesnt say KNOX or whatever for 4.3, just QUALCOM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE)
I cant flash any custom recovery's (CWM or twrp) through odin (3.07) they dont stick.
Factory Reset
In Rom Manager under Recovery Setup
Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 6.0.2.8
Latest Recovery: ClockworkMod 6.0.4.5
Idealy I would like to keep root access, but at this point, I REALLY want mobile data. This morning I found a few post that suggested the ##72786#, because I had no phone number it was (000-000-96??) or something. So now it shows my phone number, I could and can still make calls and send text.
Help!
Thanks!
[EDIT] Solved
So, I roughly followed this guide. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2538991
1) Did the Auto Root through Odin
2) Installed superSu
3) got root
4) flashed twrp via odin
5) Used Rom manager to get into recovery
6) flashed the MK3 modem and knox app remover
7) wiped delvik and cache
8) rebooted and got mobile data again!
Open Question: So when I press down vol + home button + power, I only get the stock recovery (green android guy), how do I get it to go to custom recovery without rom manager?
Thanks again!

Sounds like your in download mode, power off phone, try volume up, home, power button together, as soon as you see booting recovery in top left corner, let go.

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] CWM recovery bootloop and can't get out

The events that transpired:
1. Installed stock NF9 via Effortless guide.
2. Booted into stock & all aspects where upgraded to NF9
3. Installed CF-Auto-Root via Odin
4. Installed philz touch 6.12.8
5. Attempted to boot into Recovery and it rebooted itself
6. Installed TWRP included in Effortless guide
7. Booted into TWRP. The recovery was behaving oddly and it took about 10 minutes just to get to the next step.
8. Installed HyperDrive RLS4
9. Booted into HyperDrive
10. Installed ROM Manager and installed the latest CWM Touch
11. SuperSU updated it binaries and I accidentally told it to do it in TWRP/CWM.
Now I am in an eternal bootloop. I have tried to boot into download mode with no success. I have removed the batteries and waited hours (not an exaggeration) and it still attempts to boot into recovery on its own over and over again. Can any give me some more ideas to try to fix this? Thanks!!!

Here is a sure way to solve the issue you are having with bootlooping and root.
#1: Odin flash cf-autoroot, here is the direct download link:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45687485/openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.1-hltetmo-4.4.img.tar
#2: Odin flash twrp recovery, here is the direct download link:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45687485/openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.1-hltetmo-4.4.img.tar
Odin flash the cf-autoroot first.
You were not using the latest official version of twrp recovery, and
you must have used either an old version or a pre-release beta.
Once you are done doing the above you will no longer have bootloop and root issues.
Don't use rom manager for anything in the future if you want to avoid
these kinds of issues. The latest firmwares and custom roms do not play
nicely with rom manager.
Also philz touch recovery is not fully compatible with these newer firmwares and roms.
Good luck!

Here is the problem: I cannot get into download mode. I have held volume up+home+power and any combination of buttons and it just keeps trying to boot into a broken recovery. I have also plugged it into my computer and it doesnt communicate to it at all (makes sense, since it never boots into anything). I need to be able to reset my bootloader or force the bootloader into download mode.
Try removing the battery and while holding down the three button combo insert battery. With luck it'll go into D/L mode.

Unable to install/ boot into recovery after CF Auto Root.

I recently made the decision to root my Note 3. I used the CF auto Root process with was wonderfully painless. I was pleased to see my Note was rooted and confirmed within minutes. I then (like I always do) attempted to reboot into whatever recovery I then had. I sadly ran into a recovery boot loop similar to this screenshot in the attached file.
I reinstalled the .md5 via Odin and launched back into Android. Once there I installed ROM Manager to verify what Recovery I had. It said I have CWM. So I attempted to update it and the update failed. (Re-attempted more than 5 times) I tried to install TWRP and I fell into another recovery boot loop.
I reinstalled the .md5 via Odin and launched back into Android. I tried to update CWM using ROM toolbox. (Allegedly successful) I attempted to reboot into recovery & ran into a recovery boot loop.
I reinstalled the .md5 via Odin and launched back into Android. I need a more solid way to update CWM. Better yet, I wonder why am I having so much difficulty updating it in the 1st place. Any thoughts?

Here is what you can do to solve the recovery problem.
Here is a direct download link to TWRP recovery which you need to odin flash,
once you have odin flashed it you will no longer have any difficulties going into
the custom twrp recovery:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45687485/openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.1-hltetmo-4.4.img.tar
p.s. for best results forget about cwm and rom manager they are not needed for anything.
Good luck!

Root sgh-i747 with 4.4.2 Android

All of the threads I've been able to find to root this device seem to be out of date. I've tried several but each time I seem to wind up on a page saying the file is no longer available. Can anyone give me a link or method to root that is current?
Preferred method used to be:
1) store a supersu.zip on the phone.
2) flash TWRP with Odin, be sure to uncheck auto-reboot, pull battery on success
3) boot straight into TWRP with vol up + home + power (if you boot into unrooted system it will overwrite TWRP with stock recovery)
4) make a TWRP backup, just in case something goes wrong
5) flash supersu with TWRP then reboot to system
I haven't rooted stock on this phone in ages, but unless something has changed with newer versions of supersu this should work fine. Magisk might work too, but I haven't tried it on anything but custom roms with the i747.

Thanks. Also solved my problem with TWRP getting over-written.
