Hey there how are you, I recently bought a I9505 version Galaxy s4 and have rooted it.
I just flashed a custom recovery through odin... apparently.... But I cannot actually boot into a recovery? Is there something wrong?
Also when I try some blue writing comes up..... Thanks
When you have powered off your phone, hold in the power button + home button + volume up button until you see the blue text in the top right corner that says 'booting recovery...' then let go of all the buttons and it should boot into your recovery. I remember when I first got the device I kept holding in the buttons for either too long or too little (I was used to the Galaxy S2). Hope this helps.

I had a similar problem, sofbrick, could not get into recovery, i need to flash a stock Rom to recover your recovery, after that install a custom recovery again if you want..attention not to use the last MH8, advise one stock rom before.
So I got it working thanks guys also ive flashed a rom but its stuck at the google dota... the 4 coloured ones and it just keeps doing that.... for like 15 mins.. whats going on?

If you want to try aosp then you must flash an aosp kernel... I guess it will be included in the rom zip... But good luck with it

Easiest method would be to dirty flash whatever rom you're running.
Edit: also, only need power + volume down to boot into bootloader. Holding the power button for 10 seconds will hard reboot your phone.
Truth be told, I just hold power for 10 seconds, then just hold volume down before it gets to the Google logo.

That's for 4.2.2, so if you're on 4.3 it may not help. Failing that, try reflashing Franco's kernel?

I'm sorry if it has been posted before, but I truly need some help! I don't know where to turn to.
I'm not an avid android user and only got my Nexus 4 on Friday. I decided to root it today, and everything was fine until I decided to download Franco's kernal on the play store. It crashed my Nexus, and ever since it's been stuck on the Google Screen!
I've tried everything in the Nexus Root Toolkit but nothing has worked! Please offer me some simple suggestions!
Recovery mode gives me nothing but a dead android wit a red exclamation mark!

edit: tried again and **** yea bro i got into the recovery mode that had an accessible menu
thank you! thank sweet baby lord jesus! thank life u saved my day with the usb 3 to 2 switch bro
edit again: got stoked for nothing, even with the recovery menu im stuck at the google screen, what else can i do?
edit: i figured if i could boot the recovery.img i could boot the boot.img too. booted the boot.img and it worked ! thanks for the help and your inputs cheers!~!
So I could not get the phone to root (super user binary issue) and I installed that SetUID kernal and now my phone will not boot. Can someone please guide me to a fix. Thanks

Crap I just realized that it is a T-mobile thing. Am I completely screwed now?...should have following my rule and read twice downloaded once.
If you did flash a kernel with that name, it would explain your boot problems.
Flash one for the Sprint S4 and all will be good.

Any of the appropriate kernels from the original development section will get you up and running. You'll just have to pick one for whatever rom you were one (4.3, 4.4, tw, aosp, etc)

How do I get into stock recovery? Tried up, mid, power. Just flashes the galaxy screen and turns off.
Ok so found out that I can get into recov with power plugged in. So battery is low. But now did fact reset and still galaxy screen the now just blue led black screen
ok so I am back running. installed mk2_stock02 from Dev page. Was able to get CWM booting and loaded the ROM from there. My next question, probably has been answered but this is where my problem started before. When I go to open the SuperSU I get an error saying there is no SU Binary installed....and then closes.

Hello all Xda members, I think I need some help with rooting Galaxy Note 3 [N9005XXUDMJ7[ because I am having some problems which makes me very very sick While everybody with this phone root easily I am stuck at the start screen and it does not boot.In this screen It says
RECOVERY BOOTING...
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Set Warranty Bit: recovery
I've used Odin 1.85 to CF Auto Root this device. It says "PASS" on the program , but after the device stucks on the screen I mentioned above .It does not boot after that ; nothing loads too.
I really need someone to save me from this .
Goodluck

Use this older file on odin.
It's said pass so it's complete. Either use the older version hey_joe has posted and untick auto reboot. Or try this way >
Once it's rooted and said pass. Turn the phone off, and try and go into recovery then reboot the device. It should boot into Android.

Just redid all the steps with the older file, and I have a phone again, a more sweaty brow too...
I wasn't sure if I had signed up before and it took me a while to figure out that I hadn't, and some of them captcha's are ****ing difficult to read!!
But I was determined to get on here and say a thank you to you guys for your most excellent advice.
Although now that I've done that I see I need to enter more captchas just to post, I could be here a while at this rate.

Also if anyone else comes across this problem all I did was follow the advice in hey_joe's thread and got my phone back...

When you use a custom recovery or a custom kernel you will get that, it's normal, means you aren't using a Samsung signed recovery/kernel. - the custom kernel comes permissive by default.

Like a couple other guys on this thread, I also became a member here purely to say thanks for the fix provided by hey_joe.
If anyone else with the same problem is reading this, just get the Odin version hey_joe posted on the first page.
Remember that you need to go into download mode (Volume Down + Power + Home) again to escape that 3-color, 3-line SEANDROID screen-lockup before you can interface with the older/better version of Odin.
Just adding this comment as it took me a few minutes to understand why Odin couldn't see the phone again. (Why yes, I *am* new to this whole rooting business) ...
All is good now and I confirmed the phone is now rooted with Root Check from Google Play.
Now to delete all this bloatware, specifically the pesky CloudAgent app that kept screwing up my ability to work with the Gallery. The popup "CloudAgent has stopped" has been the bane of my Note 3 existence for the last few days ...

I had exactly same problem on the same device, and you guys saved me !! Thanks a lot!!
I have the same thing but my phone works. It only tells me that it's not enforcing seandroid when I go into recovery. Is that normal or did my recovery not install correctly? I can use it to flash files, do backups and such so I think it's working normally. The only issue is that I coulnd't get TWRP to work, I had to find the apk on my Note 2 and flash CWM Touch to have custom recovery and every time I go to reboot from there it says that it needs to fix my root. I haven't seen anything on it, so if I am in the wrong location please direct me to where I need to go. Rooting and all isn't new to me, been doing it since I got my EVO 4G when it was released, but I am by far no expert. This KNOX crap has me kinda flustered. The root appears to stick, I can use ROM Toolbox and do what I want it to do, root checker says I have root and all, just curious about the seandroid stuff and saw this post.
So I'll start by saying I made a boo boo and this is 100% my fault.
I rooted my stock D800 and flashed TWRP. I flashed Cyanogenmod but where I messed is up when I flashed the D802 ROM and not the D800. I figured I'd just boot into recovery again using the hardware buttons, but all that happens is the screen turns on but nothing actually displays.
After that, I figured I'd just flash a stock ROM and basically start over using Download Mode and FlashTool. Unfortunately, I can't flash the stock firmware because the phone is NOT identifying itself as a D800, it's identifying as a D802, so FlashTool will not allow me to flash the proper files.
What I don't understand is why was I able to get into TWRP that one instance and flash the ROM but now whenever I attempt to get into recovery again the screen just turns on but recovery doesn't show. Makes no sense to me. I've tried getting into recovery using the hardware buttons a million times after but no dice.
I know it's not much, but I'm willing to throw in 10 bucks via PayPal for whoever can help me fix this.

So it doesn't need to be in FAQ somewhere?Lol it would've helped me out dramatically! It's not my fault that there are recoveries that mess up your phone. Coming from Samsung phones I didn't think that someone would release faulty software that would render your phone unusable.
