[Q] Can't access recovery - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone !
I've a critical problem on my S4 I9505... it stuck on first Samsung s4 screen with a blue message : recovery booting...

Show us your entire window as a screenshot, then we could try to eliminate possibilities. Text is very ambiguous.

Flash a Stock ROM from Sammobile dot com with ODIN 3.09 or above
thanks for reply
but i tried lolipop from sammobile and odin 3.9 ,3.10 still stuk at nand write start
Try the Kies recovery Option. You need the modelnumber and the imei. They are located under the battery i think. Maybe it restores the KitKat 4.4.4 Version. Good luck

"Recovery booting" bootloop

Hi all,
I need your help since I'm stuck with a frustrating issue.
Original issue
I have a N910F (France || Carrier : Free) with originally a bootloop problem. The phone would:
- Boot into the system for a few seconds then bootloop
- When I tried to boot into recovery, it got stuck on "Recovery booting".
What I tried
I have access to download mode. I have tried flashing the phone with different stock ROMs
N910FXXS1DPE6_N910FOXX1DPE1_XEF --Latest stock
N910FXXU1DPE1_N910FOXX1DPE1_XEF -- Latest stock also (one is for Snapdragon models, not too sure if my phone is Snapdragon or not)
N910FXXU1COH4_4FICHIERS_CSC_OXA_PIT INTEGRE_TARDIS -- Android 5.1.1 in 4 files for Odin
Also tried flashing with pit file at some point N910F_TRLTE_EUR_OPEN.pit
I used Odin 3.10.6 and 3.11.1
Also tried Nand erase all and Re-partition Odin options at some point.
Present issue
The problem is now worse, since the phone won't boot into system for a few seconds. It now only boots with a "Recovery booting..." message on top of the screen freezes for a while, then bootloops into "Recovery booting".
I still have access to Download mode though.
Can you guys suggest me something? I don't know what I can do to properly flash this stubborn Note 4.
Thanks in advance for your help

Try to use Samsung Smart Switch to get the original firmware directly downloaded and installed on the phone.
