[Q] Any type of Recovery goes to Download/Odin Mode?

Hi everyone!
Today I attempted to install a ROM for the first time using ROM Manager. I flashed Clockwork Mod Recovery and then downloaded CyanogenMod and tried to install it (pressed Reboot / Install in ROM Manager). My phone then went into Download/Odin mode. It then didn't do anything for ~10 minutes, and after taking out the battery, the phone still went into Download mode. I got it to boot normally by pressing Home + Power + Volume Down and then pressing cancel when it prompted me to enter download mode. However, every time I attempt to boot into recovery, normally or ClockWork, the phone just goes to download mode. I even tried to do a factory reset, and the phone booted again into Download Mode.
Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Thanks!

[Q] Unable to access recovery

So i rooted my Samsung Galaxy s4 today, and i was told by my friend to use clockworkmods recovery before i start using custom roms. Since there was no option for a gt-i905 on there, i went to the internet and i found a .tar file that had gt-i905 compatibility. SO, through the amazing power of odin, i went into download mode and "installed" clockworkmods. According to odin, it was successful. According to my phone it was not. IT couldnt boot in to recovery and it always went back into download mode saying that it could not boot properly and that it was in odin mode. So pulled the battery out and went back in to download mode and instead of volume up, i pressed volume down to restart the phone. The turned back on normally.BUT, everytime i attempt to go back into recovery, it shoves me back into download mode. I have no idea what i did and i would like to know if there was anyway of fixing such problem?
Thanks

Very easy to Fix it...
If you are rooted install Mobile odin, search on XDA not on Google in S4 I9505 section For a Recovery...
Download it (Make sure it is the right file)
Put it in Odin and just press flash...
Enjoy...
If there is a Problem check your device and flash the stock firmware from Samsung and then Flash again the recovery....
Hit thanks if i helped...

You need to use a resistor JIG 301k for put your phone into download mode.
Then you can flash the stock firmware via Odin.

I did what @jdomadia said and reinstalled the firmware, now everything is working just fine, I don't know why it did like this but when I tried to flash the Compulsion kernel with mobile odin it has bricked my phone, but after when I tried it with odin from pc it worked fine so just go ahead and flash the right kernel for your phone.

Take the battery out and restart in recovery mode
Power up + Home + Power
Try to factory reset if you cannot boot into recover restart in download mode and flash the official firmware via Odin

then try flashing the recovery thru Odin, it will work, cheers

If you're stuck in download mode then just flash a new firmware and re root. Make sure you use the right firmware. Its not bricked just doesn't have an OS. Use recovery to flash recoveries. If not then use Odin. Apps fail at times and this is the repercussion

Help me fix my bricked S5

Hi. I seem to be having alot of problems trying to get my S5 to work again. The phone is stuck in a boot loop and won't go into recovery mode or download mode. When I press volume down + home and power button i can get to the warning message asking to press up to go to download mode. Pressing volume up does nothing
I have bought a download mode jig that forced it to download mode and in successfully flashed a stock ROM using Odin. After flashing the phone reboots and hangs on booting recovery mode. Have tried many different versions of stock ROM and it still doesn't boot up. I even flashed a custom recovery and it won't boot to recovery
I have managed to fix alot of phones over the years that have software problems but this has really got me stumped.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
