Does Odin say pass! when you flash the recovery? If not, redownload the file and try different versions on yuor tablet.

If you have ics 4.0.4 not 4.0.3 so your problem might be that a script rewrites the stock recovery again so flash cwm via odin in download mode when pass then go to recovery manual after disconnection of computer via volume up+power then flash root in cwm

Please use the proper punctuation. For a couple weeks now I've been trying to understand what you post. Its hard for people to read it when sentence runs into sentence.
Periods and comma's man! They're needed!

Odin DOES say Pass! and my tablet reboots but when I enter recovery it doesn't go to CWM instead it goes to stock recovery which is Android Recovery <3e>, I'm running official 4.0.4 ICS and no I have not tried different models because I don't want to mess up my device.. any help?

you need flash proper version . some official version bootloader been locked .that why you not flash cwm

I had the same problem, because I had already taken the 4.0.4 update. The problem I (and I suspect the others) were having is the reboot after Odin installs the CWM. It happens so fast, there's no time to unplug the tablet and do the button dance to boot into recovery. As a result, the normal boot goes through, and runs the install-recovery.sh that Ryan79 mentioned in system/etc, restoring stock recovery.
Here's how I solved it: On Odin, uncheck "Auto Reboot". Install CWM6. When it goes green, unplug the tablet (still in "download" screen). Reboot manually into recovery (hold power + Vol. left, release power, hold vol. left until CWM screen comes up). I did this straight from the "download" screen. The tablet powered off after a few seconds of holding the power button, then came up to the samsung screen, then I released the power button and continued to hold the volume button until CWM6 loaded. I installed the cwm-root-gtab2.zip file. I selected YES
when the "Stock Reboot Fix" question appeared. Rebooted from recovery, Successful root! Looks to me like the "fix" simply renames the install-recovery.sh, removing the ".sh" at the end. I have now rebooted a couple of times normally, and can still access CWM6 through the buttons.

I think you could try doing a factory reset from the recovery. If that doesn't work, try flashing the factory image using fastboot

Ok, this happened to me too. First, download the factory image for android 4.4.2 for mako here. Then flash it via fastboot. Then, instead of using a rootkit, unlock your bootloader using fastboot. Finally, download either TWRP or CWM and flash it via fastboot. I think you might want to reboot before flashing the custom recovery though.

Did you select recovery from fastboot menu, get the dead android, hold power button, press volume up button and you don't get any options? If this is the case, maybe you need to flash back to stock recovery too.
I would forget about rooting until you can boot into the ROM.

Try using fastboot to push the stock 4.4.2 image to your phone. Flash all 6 img files, either separately or via script.

EDIT: How to use ODIN -> HERE

Tryvthis first:
Boot to recovery by pressing VOLUME UP + POWER.
when you see blue writing in top left corner release the power button but keep holding volume up until you're in recovery.
P.S The Home button is not needed on i9505 to boot to recovery or download modes.

This worked, and phone booted in recovery mode (not touch that was previously installed), wiped data/factor reset however phone is still not booting. I think phone has no rom manager installed, how can I proceed to install rom manager and flash stock rom or root it again?

Knox problem (I9505)

Hi,
I went into download mode and saw the "knox warranty void 0x1" ..
I still tried to burn RECOVERY and it looked fine, but it did not work at the end ..
I want to make NANDROID then burn Rom PARANDROID .. how can you do it?
Thanks!

What did not work at the end?

Recovery I have is now and from beginning is a regular stock,
Burning recovery did not work at the end .. (burning in odin passed, and I got recovery and I saw the recovery stock)

No, when you flash recovery, don't check the auto reboot box.
Some stock firmware may overwrite the other recovery into stock.
So if you reboot into system after you flashed via odin, you did nothing.
Flash via odin, pull out battery, pull back in, 3-key combo to recovery

Yes because it gives recovery permission to the root of the phone hence you need root to use custom recovery ?

[Q] Cant seem to install CWM / TWRP on note 3

I have the galaxy note 3 n900 exynos model.
my baseband version is : n900ddudna1
kernel version : 3.4.39-679903 / SWDD5518 #1
build number : UDNB2
every time I try flashing with odin ( 3.09 / 3.07 ), odin resets my device after 2 seconds saying PASS, but when i go to recovery , it is still appears to be official samsung recovery. doesnt matter if i flashed the latest CWM or TWRP....
when i try installing CWM from zip file over the external SD card. it starts to install the recovery, and then suddenly i get the following messege : "footer is wrong signature verification failed" . and it reboots the phone and nothing has changed...
I had installed CWM recovery in the past with some roms, but this entire hell trip started after i install new hong kong official NBD4 rom...
the only thing i can do right now, is flash original verified samsung roms from sammobile website...
any idea what could be causing this / a solution... ?
thanks in advance..

what happens is, there is a blue line that shows the progress of the CWM flash in downloading mode... once the blue line gets to the end it just stays this way and Odin says : "pass". i turn off the phone , take out the battery , replacing the battery back to its place. then i press volume up + power button + home button and a red android symbol appears. then its doing something and says " rebooting in 10 seconds" . when it finishes to reboot , i still have the original stock recovery and i still cant install any Roms on my device while getting an error saying " signature verification failed"...
im starting to get really despearate here...

You could always try TWRP if you still can't get it to work or Phil's touch recovery.
Note:
Goo doesn't install TWRP for the note 3 the binary to install maually is on their site
