Hi,
So I installed the new oxygenos 3.5.3, and therefore I had to flash a certain recovery of twrp.
However, when I wanted to install an other custom rom, i knew i had to flash the original twrp, but when i did that, and the recovery would start i got an black screen.
The only recovery that's working is the one for the communitybuild. I tried almost anything, i completely wiped my phone and I tried to unroot it but nothing helped.
Please is there someone with the answer so I can flash my other custom roms again. It would be appriciated.
Stan
(Sorry for my bad english, i'm doing my best )
There's a custom TWRP for the community build floating around somewhere I don't remember where but do a quick search and you should find it!

Received my zenforce 2 (ZOOA) yesterday and succeeded after various attempts to get bootloader unlocked and TWRP installed.
The problem is my device only boots in TWRP when it's power off and I start it, or if I restart it from TWRP. Besides I tried to install cyanogen and other roms on it, but no matter what it keeps booting into TWRP....
Hoping to get some help
flash stock recovery flash stock rom boot into it do all settings then flash custom recovery again then wipe and then flash your custom rom that happened to me thats how i solved it i also flashed stock droidboot.img

Had to move to a custom ROM based on stock anyway, as the other ones based on CM gave me freezes and random reboot (even without xposed installed)
Hi all,
I am new here and I am having trouble with my Galaxy 3 SGH-I747 from at&t
I rooted the phone using KingoRoot and everything was fine.
I used the phone for about a week and decided to update from kitkat 4.4.2 to lolipop 5.0.
I have a micromax phone that is rooted and I didnt have any trouble updating it while it was rooted, so i figured it wouldnt be a problem but when I updated the s3 it said update failed at 94% and started rebooting and got stuck in an update loop.
I searched and searched and tried finding recovery options using odin but I cant find a 4.4.2 stock firmware, and cant find much information on recovering my device.
I am unable to boot in to recovery. I cant find a link for the SGH-I747 to philz recovery, the links all seem to be dead.
I can boot in to download mode.
I want to install a custom recovery via ODIN but i cant find one for my phone.
After I install the custom recovery, how will i know which stock OS my phone is currently at
I appreciate any advice you can give me, thanks.
Use TWRP for custom recovery. CWM and Philz haven't been updated in quite a while. You can get odin flashable tars from here.
Flashing TWRP should get you to working recovery, and you can find the rom zips you need to get back up and running in the development section here.
Unrooted stock will overwrite TWRP with stock recovery upon boot. Depending on how far your phone is getting into the booting process that might happen if you let odin auto-reboot. Your best bet is to uncheck auto-reboot in odin, so it won't restart on you automatically. Upon success remove the USB cable and pull battery. Replace battery and boot straight to recovery by holding home+vol up+power until you see tiny blue text in the upper left corner then releasing.
Thankyou! i was able to install the recovery by TWRP.
I just need to figure out what firmware to install and where I can get it... I was on kitkat, I tried to update to lollipop but it didnt work. My phone is bricked so I dont know how i would see the firmware version on it.
I really just want any kind of stable firmware that is rooted. Any ideas where I could find one? I'm trying to sift through the forums
Lots of ROMs are available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-att/development

I appreciate all the help - It seemed really hard because I was finding roms and flashing with ODIN but it always failed TWRP is giving me results. I flashed slimkat and got my phone working again! the only problem is my sound is a bit junky, idk why.
I plan on trying out Octos - M, because I heard marshmallow OS has a lot better battery life among other things
If i upgrade to a custom marshmallow OS, is there any coming back to a former custom OS like 4.4.2? or is it a permanent upgrade?
Do you guys recommend any custom OS? I need something stable, that uses the resources efficiently.
Before flashing additional ROMs, make sure the phone is running the latest bootloader and modem.
To verify the installed bootloader and modem, install the Samsung Phone Info app from the Play store.
With a custom ROM, you can flash from one to another, usually without any issues as long as you perform a complete wipe (system, data, cache) before flashing a new ROM. If you are upgrading an existing custom ROM with a newer custom ROM (e.g. CM12.1 2016-01-01 nightly to CM12.1 2016-01-02 nightly), you can just flash the updated ROM over the existing ROM.
I owned this phone a while ago, gained root access on it, and after a year or so I gave it to a friend. My friend has given it back but before doing so she did a factory reset on it. Now it is stuck on a TWRP bootloop. To be clear, when I turn it on I get the TWRP boot screen, then it flicks off and back on again. Basically a loop. I cannot get INTO TWRP to do anything.
I cannot recall what version of TWRP it has, but I know 3.0.0.0 was troublesome for a lot of people (they reported this TWRP bootloop, or something similar).
There are a couple threads similar to this, but no solutions.
This post (http://androidforums.com/threads/how-to-fix-twrp-bootloop-easy-method.1026682/) seems like a good solution, but so far it is not working for me.
I know this device is old now, so hope is low for getting it working again... but if anyone knows what I need to do I would be really grateful if you could suggest something for me to try! I don't have much to loose, so happy to try nearly anything.
I would start over by flashing a stock rom from sammobile.com, then twrp, and a custom rom is required. Remember, flashing a stock rom will wipe all data.
If you need the data, try flashing twrp 2.87 or the latest twrp with Odin.

Thanks! Am I able to flash this when phone is in TWRP bootloop? The link I posted in my last message implies it ought to be fine to do so...
Yes, you can just flash a stock rom when you are in a twrp boot loop as long as the phone can enter download mode.
Ok cool, thanks! Will give it a shot ASAP.
Hello there,
I am sure that my question has been answered numerous times but I can not find a thread which would help me or at least fits my problem.
I currently have LineageOS for MicroG installed (LOS 15.1, latest build). The device runs good so far, but I want to try out MIUI10 and go back to stock or use the xiaomi.eu ROM.
My problem is, if I try to flash the xiaomi.eu ROM in the TWRP (I have 3.2.3 installed), I get stuck in the boot logo (I waited about 30 minutes, so I am pretty sure that it will not boot).
So I thought, maybe I have to flash the official global first and then flash the .eu ROM in TWRP again. But I can not even flash the official global ROM via the Mi flash tool, because I get stuck at the boot screen again.
Flashtool displays only a succesful message, after this the device tries to reboot. Can somebody help me here? I tried it with the official fastboot ROM, downloaded directly from Xiaomi.
Thank you!
Edit: and of course I made a factory reset before I tried to flash something in TWRP.
Have you tried to format?
Just flash the ROM via Mi Flash Tool instead of TWRP, worked fine for me
Help

Hey everyone! I'm sort of new to the whole custom recovery thing and while I know that there is a whole post concerning TWRP and Pixel 2XL, I would love if someone could take the time to explain, and maybe help me get it working on my phone.
BTW the reason I want to get a custom recovery is so I can flash a custom rom as Pixel OS just isn't cutting it for me anymore.
Here's what I know:
I am currently on an unlocked phone that is rooted on android 10. I heard that android 10 totally screwed up TWRP and makes it impossible to install after updating. Is that true? If so, is it possible for me to factory reset my phone to android 9 and then install TWRP after the fact? Or, have I totally screwed myself by updating to android 10? I know that I could just ask these questions on the other thread but it confuses me a lot and it would help if I could just get some clear answers.
TWRP works fine on Android 10. I would update to the latest update of Android(which is the August update for right now). Then copy any files( TWRP.zip and what ever Rom.zip) to your phone. Boot into bootloader and run the fastboot commands to boot into TWRP. Wipe data on your phone within TWRP and then proceed to flash the rim followed by TWRP.
Make sure you add the installer zip to the flashing queue when flashing a ROM or you'll get stock recovery again.
