i unlocked my bootloader and installed magisk and confirmed i have root i tried installing the twrp in odin but it just hangs at processing flashed it with flashify bu then it gets like 90% into twrp but never fully loads in had to redo the rom again
Pack it as tar with 7zip or any other compression tool you prefer.
Try to backup boot partition first before flash, and restore boot if phone doesn't boot.

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:

p.s. for best results forget about cwm and rom manager they are not needed for anything.
Good luck!
I've had AOKP & TWRP installed for nearly 3 years. The phone started rebooting occasionally when I would go to manage apps and kill an app. It finally got hosed really good on the last reboot and it got stuck in a TWRP boot loop. I was able to use odin to reflash TWRP and after the initial flash I could get into TWRP recovery. Unfortunately I don't have any of the necessary image files on the sdcard. I then tried to flash a converted AOKP zip (now a tar converted with toolkit). I am not able to get either the toolkit or adb detect the device although I am able to flash with odin. I flashed the AOKP tar image with odin but now when it boot it stays on the Galaxy Note 2 screen and goes no further.
Now I can only get in download mode and since odin seems to be the only thing that is working for me my question is can I use it to flash AOKP and GAPPS (both of which I have on computer)? If so, what format does the AOKP file need to be? img, tar or what? Also can I convert the gapps zip file to a tar and use odin to flash it?
Much thanks in advance. I plan to purchase a new device soon but would like to get this working again as a backup.

Use a stock/rooted .tar image to restore the device partition structure.
It contains the PIT for remapping...
Once a stock rooted rom is flashed and running...flash TWRP 2.8.6.0 via Odin...
Then create a nandroid backup to SD CARD..
You can then flash AOKP and GAPPS as .zip files...in TWRP
It's a bit more work....but you'll have a clean backup and a way back if trouble hits...along with fresh partitions...g
I recommend flashing back to stock, get the phone set up using stock, install TWRP, take a nandroid backup, and then flash a custom ROM.
Hi everyone. So i have an lg g3 d850 version, I had rooted it installed cyanogenmod 12 and twrp recovery, everything was fine. Problem came up when i tried to upgrade twrp recovery to v3.0.0.0 (latest version). I downloaded the twrp.img into my sd card, I used Flashify and erroneously chose FLASH BOOT IMAGE instead of RECOVERY IMAGE. Since they are both .img files flashify flashed it. I tried to reboot my phone it would not boot, just kept displaying on and off the lg logo, i guess it couldn't find the correct boot image. I thing flashify flashed a recovery .img into the boot partion (what a bummer!). So I tried to restore phone to stock, it booted into download mode (vol up+usb cable), used the lg flash tool and installed the stock .tot file with its dll, went well to completion. Tried to boot again, but it would not boot. I guess the boot partion is still unflashed. Someone please assist me on this problem, is there a way i can get and flash the original boot .img into my LG G3 D850?
Flash Boot from CyanogenMod
Hello and thank you for using Q/A,
you can download the CyanogenMod 12 ZIP and extract the boot.img from Cyanogen. Now flash the extracted Boot.img via Fastboot.
Kind regards

Do you have a step by step guide on how to do that? Remember the tot method completed, so i guess its back to stock.

On computer -> open the rom zip via winrar or any archive utility, find boot.img, copy over to phone (connect while in twrp), tap on IMG in twrp (there are 2 options - zip and img, currently it´s zip mode), then find the boot.img, choose to flash and select "boot" or "kernel" (it asks you if it´s recovery or kernel)
Don´t panic , you have twrp at lease
I don't have twrp
Well doesn't make sense.
-you had older twrp
-you wanted new one
-you flashed it to boot partition?
It means you can't boot Android but you still have twrp
volume down and power,wait for lg logo. Release and hold again..confirm twice

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 with Android 5.0 (Lollipop) and Rooted.
I've been trying to flash CWM and also TWRP without success.
I've used all sorts of methods, Odin, ROM Manager, Nandroid Mgr, Flashify, ADB, ... with the same results:
The flashing always seems to be successful but when rebooting into the custom recovery mode, the custom interface doesn't appear but instead, the system tries to boot into what it appears to be the stock recovery's three first colored text lines for a few seconds and it reboots into a loop until I remove the battery.
Then the only way to get back to the system is boot in download mode, flash either CWM or TWRP with Odin (although I know they won't actually work) and it then reboots into system.
Then I restore a backup of the stock recovery that I luckily made with Flashify and at least the stock recovery works.
(BTW, when the stock recovery has been restored, if I go to ROM Manager both CWM and TWRP are listed as "Already Installed" ... I thought that when you flash the stock recovery, any previous custom recovery is removed )
Any help would be appreciated
So I tried to flash SuperSU and Magisk and somehow I messed up in a way that doesn't let my device boot regularly and only to fastboot. I can still access recovery but I can't flash OxygenOS 5, which I already had, unless I do a full hardbrick reinstallation with the unbrick tool (editing the script file for the error 7 method did not work). Is my nandroid corrupt? Is there a way to salvage my apps and other data in the nandroid file?
