Are there any methods on how to load any recovery rom onto my galaxy tab if I can only boot into stock recovery mode or download mode? Preferably without losing data...
Any ideas?

After attempting to install custom ROM (goldeneye) onto my phone through safestrap my phone has bricked.
It also won't boot into recovery or download mode so I'm unable to try and flash stock with Odin.
Is there anything I can do at this point or am I stuck with a really expensive paperweight??
How exactly did you flash the ROM. Was it the corr3ct safestrap version and ROM for your phone? If it wont turn on, try JTAG repair.
I just flashed CM 12 beta on my i9500 (proper flash) but I found some bugs and lags hence I decided to reflash it when I found out I couldn't reboot into recovery mode. The device just restarts. I tried the 3 button combo, rebooting through recovery mode through the phone, even downloaded ROM Manager and tried booting into recovery but didn't help. How can I get my recovery back again? Is it because I used CWM instead of TWRP? I was using CWM v6.0.4.1 Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
It seems your recovery is broken. Try reflashing recovery by Odin Mode.

try rebooting and just hold volume up.
Dear all,
I have sasmsung s4 i9500 model with 5.0.1
I am flashing many custom recoveries like cwm,twrp,philz touch....but none of the recovery is opening.....when i flash the recovery it gets installed and passed...but when i go into recovery mode it always go in default recovery and not in custom recovery
Please help!!
Then try rooting your phone first and flash recovery using an app called Flashify.
Do not check auto reboot in Odin. Flash Twp, remove battery, remove USB cable, replace battery, boot into recovery.

I think i need flashable zip? how do I create this?
Just hold Home+Vol down+Power until Your phone boots into Download mode.
What rom did You try to flash?(link) No matter what rom You flash, Download Mode won't ever disappear. I've broke my device with odin couple of times (literally flashed everything. Even broken kernels) and I always could go into Download Mode.
And You use adb sideload like this:
adb sideload your_rom.zip
And it should first push the rom to Your device and then flash it. But with stock recovery I think that You'll get signature error.
Edit: G925W8 is a S6 Edge. Not S7 Edge btw.

I tried holding them down so many times! won't let me and I am flashing the G935W8VLU2API1_G935W8OYA2API1_TLS.zip
I renamed it to update.zip too but it's not letting me the contents look like this

It's G935W8 Sorry for the typo
Ahahahah :laugh: It's not a recovery flashable package lol. You can only flash those files with ODIN.
Try that:
Download this rom: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424964461
Flash it with sideload, hopefully It will work.

What recovery do You use btw?
Is there a way to copy the data from the internal memory. My phone won't start (out of the blue), it's stuck on the Samsung logo. I tried Safe mode, Wipe cache partition but it didn't help.
I know I should have taken some backups but I didn't. Samsung authorized service didn't help me either.
Phone is not rooted and it's running Samsung ROM.
Search question posted multiple times.But if Samsung failed then its a waste .
Personally I would flash custom recovery and custom rom without wipe .

What I read I need to have USB debugging enabled. I'm not sure whether it is enabled and if not how to proceed.
If you can boot to download mode, flash TWRP custom recovery using odin (pc). After that boot to TWRP and from there you can copy your files to memory card using twrp file manager.
I think I'm able to boot to download mode. I'm little bit worried not to mess anything up (such as delete the internal memory). Is there any step-by-step manual on how to do that? What about that USB debugging?

Does the installation process wipe internal memory? I don't want to loose photos/videos that I didn't backup.
Flashing twrp should not wipe data.
I succesfully flashed TWRP but note 3 still boots in the "regular" recovery mode. What I read Samsung ROM's replace custom recovery with the stock one. How can I fix it?
Do I need to flash TWRP again?
This worked for me:
Before you flash the recovery, untick the Auto Reboot option in ODIN. Then flash the recovery. After flashing in done, reboot your device directly to recovery mode from download mode by pressing Vol up + Power + Home button together. Now you will see the TWRP recovery is booted in your device. Now you can reboot normally and your TWRP will be installed.
