Hello crew, I've recently gotten a Note 4 through sprint. I've been rooting devices since the HTC Magic and have had no bricks. I rooted my Note 4 via Odin 1.85. I flashed the latest twrp and It worked great. This morning my phone was frozen and when I pulled the battery, it boot looped. Figured it was a stock kernel issue with xposed installer. I went back into twrp and it refused to mount the system partition. I can't flash a rom, I can't recover from any of the images I created. I went through the unroot process and flashed the stock recovery back with odin. Now it boots but hangs up at the samsung splash screen for a while then loops. Any ideas? Thank you in advance.
Flash twrp again.

Thank you for the fast response. I did. I tried an older version too just in case it was a bug. No luck. When I used Odin to flash the stock recovery and rom back it starts to boot past the black and white Note 4 screen then gets to the samsung splash screen and it just hangs there. I cleared the cache and did a factory reset in the stock recovery.

OEL? I don't understand why It won't mount the system partition in twrp. I had no initial issues at all. I even flashed a Cyanogenmod nightly. It's still early and wasn't very stable so I went back to a backup I made. worked fine. I was back to rooted stock. Then the next day it froze and here I am.

Yep... OE1... Samsung's latest bit of terrorist activity.
Read through the general and help threads... You'll see.
Try notarized rom (search) and then wait for the next official release (5.1.1?) .

Flash CF Auto Root through Odin and it will put you back on your last rom that booted.

Yes, also noticed OP's Odin 1.85 is old.
To OP: CF Auto Root comes bundled with the recommended Odin. I think we're using 3.07 or 3.09 but 3.07 is recommended to uncheck the auto-boot so user can pull USB and battery after flashing custom recovery over OE1 so it sticks.
I also recommend flashing root tar and rebooting as chain fire recommends. "If you don't get to the red Android logo, boot into recovery manually ("adb reboot recovery", or boot while holding Power+VolUp+Home)."
Once booted, see what build you have.

Your bootloop is an easy fix if you have not started odin flashing yet.
Just reboot into recovery and select "Factory Reset" then reboot the phone
and most of the time this fixes the problem, I should say at least 8 out 10
booloops can be fixed with a "Factory Reset" then reboot.
Good luck!

You can download the MDL tar from the Odin thread. Yes, you can flash TWRP through Odin. You can get the tar file here.

Because you can not let the phone boot after the flash. You have to pull the battery once it completes. Then put it back in and boot into recovery. Then you have to flash teamepic.zip to root. If not once you boot up it will overwrite the recovery with stock.
Whatever method your doing will tell you to not let the phone boot up. Your missing that step. Make sure reboot is not checked on odin.

I think, even after that you might end up in the stock recovery after one or two reboots. Check this link that talks about removing a couple of files that cause this issue "What to do if Phone Boots into Stock Recovery (Android Recovery) instead of CWM".
Only follow the steps under the section "What to do if Phone Boots into Stock Recovery (Android Recovery) instead of CWM". Rest of the guide is not applicable to SPH L710 Galaxy S3 Sprint. (@edfunkycold suggested to remove the link, but this link was really useful when I first installed the CWM on my phone and kept getting the stock recovery back).
@gndlgisdbna
That's talking about i9300 that's the international S3 anything that has to do with that device will brick a US variant S3 please edit and remove that link before a noob follows that link and messes up their phone.

Hello,
My unrooted At&T galaxy s3 will not go past the Samsung Galaxy SIII splash screen. When I enter recovery it just gives me a dead android guy.
I had this problem before and to fix it, I used odin to flash the stock 4.0.4, then I flashed 4.1.1 (I think these are the correct versions, I followed instructions here), then my phone wouldn't OTA update to touchwiz 4.3 so I flashed it using recovery mode using instructions and files I found here. The phone worked fine for a few weeks after that, but then started to reboot randomly and delete apps. Eventually it just stopped working all together which is where I am now.
I tried to install TWRP using odin which odin says worked but when I try to go to recovery mode I still just see the dead android guy. The phone did not have USB debugging mode turned on so I am not sure if I could install a custom recovery at all.
I tried the CF-auto root that I found here which got partway through and then failed.
Do you guys have any suggestions? Is there a stock touchwiz 4.3 rom that I could flash using odin??
Thank you very much, please let me know if you require any more information, I really want to get my phone working again.

It almost sounds like you're dealing with a situation I'm having on my galaxy tab. It has the internal SD chip going bad. I had to use a rom specially made to boot from a partitioned external sd card. Sorry, I can't help more, but the symptoms seem similar.

Try flashing the TWRP again with Odin, but make sure the auto reboot option on the left is unchecked in Odin. After flashing, unplug the phone and then hold volume up + menu + power buttons at the same time until it reboots.

Yes it did, the first time that this started happening. But I was unable to do that again, I thought since I flashed all the way to 4.3 and I read that once you go to 4.3 you can't go back. Is that correct?
Thank you for your help. I was hoping to try an odin flashable touchwiz 4.3 but I can't seem to find one.
So you had 4.04 on your phone and you used OTA updates to get to 4.3? If this is correct, then you can't flash a stock AT&T 4.3 ROM because it has never been made available to the public; therefore, the only 4.3 ROMs that may work are based on the leaked AT&T 4.3 ROM or compiled from an OTA update.
Once of these ROMs may get your phone going again: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2498233

Did you try installing Philz Touch from Odin? As was suggested earlier, don't use auto reboot. Once Philz has been installed and you see Reset in the window, disconnect the USB cable, remove the battery, replace the battery, boot into recovery, wipe and flash a custom ROM. This may help you get your phone working for now.

Nope, USB debugging will not make a difference.
The latest Philz Touch is based on the latest CWM. After your flash Philz, are you letting the phone auto reboot on its own after flashing in Odin?
I know of no way to convert a custom ROM so it can be flashed in Odin.

I used the ROM Installer app and downloaded the Pac-Man Rom + Gapps, booted into recovery (using twrp.) I then wiped the data, cache, dalvik, and then tried installing the zip files i had downloaded. It would at first just reboot my phone normally and so I downloaded the a aokp Rom off the internet and onto my flash drive, then used a cable to attach both the phone and drive and tried installing the Aokp ROM. That then put my into a loop, I was able to get out of it by using Odin and flashing the openrecoverytwrp.2.6.3.0.img which got me booting back to normal. Sooo I then tried again and then lost the option of getting into recovery.
Their ROM is 4.4. What boot loader do you have. Did you update to kit Kat?

OK do this go to sammiemobile get the factory stock. Flash thru Odin. Then reboot make sure it stock. Download to your PC the ROM you want. Cf auto root and the recovery you like for kit Kat. Don't use any app to download anything. Once you set. Then do the cfautoroot. Let that cycle. Then flash recovery thru Odin. Then reboot. Then power down and reboot into recovery . it works .good. Boot up then add ROM to SD reboot recovery and flash. Done.
Factory wipe before going stock.

You don't keep holding those buttons when the red and blue and yellow words pop up do you? Our phone allows us to hold the power button for about 6 seconds and it will reboot.
Let up off those buttons you're holding when trying to boot into recovery as soon as you see the blue and red and yellow writing.
The blue writing states that you're already booting Into recovery.
Tl;dr You're holding the buttons too long after it reboots. Let off them.
Eek, I just read the steps you tried to resolve this. Sorry you had to go through that. I don't think that was your issue, but I just thought I'd throw my 2cents in

Yup that is the right cf auto root. I have flashed both recovery thru Odin. Work great both times. I used cwm up until 3 days ago. Switched because one of my friends was having issues and wanted to make sure it was not a recovery thing. Been on twrp and it good. Glad I could help you. Enjoy the greatness of this phone.

Dam it i got the same problem but i really can't boot into recovery or download mode. Anyone know how i can adb into download mode?
Edit: Figured it out... thank god.
Just a heads up. Next time to save time of a huge file download. Just download another Recovery for your device. You flashed a corrupt recovery which caused your phone to not go into recovery at all. Always ensure the model # matches yours also.

Also flashing CF-Auto Root does not help a bad recovery fix, it just roots your phone, so you flashing CF AutoRoot was of no use at that point.

Just a heads up. Next time to save time of a huge file download. Just download another Recovery for your device. You flashed a corrupt recovery which caused your phone to not go into recovery at all. Always ensure the model # matches yours also.

The reason he got the bootloop was cause cf root does it. That is why he needed to download the cf auto root euro version.

I don't think its that. If it is their post should be in the International Note 3 9005 thread, not T-Mobiles thread, and seeing that they have been rooted before ( i know because thats the only way they could reboot to recovery with rom manager) they must have used the n900t CF AutoRoot which is correct if the person have the T-Mobile version. Reading through and seeing that they never confirmed or have been asked for their phone model, just the second post person suggesting stuff for the 9005 without questions, since he/she said they haven't rooted yet after successfully booting up from the stock flash, he/she haven't used the 9005 Auto Root as yet which I think they shouldn't as they might brick their phone. His recovery went bad after he flashed the wrong recovery to their phone.

Let's agree to disagree. But if you check chainfires tweet he even said to use the cf euro version because it plays right with the TMOBILE. I have helped may bootloopers with just changing the root method. Just ask the op. He tried just the recovery with bootloops. And it was the right one cause he used the one I used.

You shouldn't have fixed permissions, I'm not sure that works properly on LP yet. You will have to try a few things. Try going into twrp and doing a factory reset. Reboot and test. If still bootlooping, you will have to odin stock NK2 tar, then take the ota (and redownload) it again. Basically start from scratch LP.

Fortunately I can safely say you can go back. I have done it 6 times already, testing things Matter of fact I did it at 3pm EST and just re-OTA'd for the 7th time. Just pulling tars/files and just tried to make my first flashable zip. We will see results later soon I hope. If not we will have to wait for an official tar.
Thanks will try
Thanks, I 'm gonna odin KK... I really don't like stock LL... I need to learn to wait it out
