So whenever I wipe and install a new rom, my recovery tells me I lost root. Whether I tell it to install root or not, my phone always hangs on the Samsung custom logo when I reboot. Still able to restore though.
I have tried to get past it using TWRP (USING "wipe") and Philz (using "clean to install new rom") , and even Odin'ed back to stock. I still get stuck. I'm on AT&T US, and I've even tried flashing different modems (MDB, MDL, MF3).
Ideas?

If you have CWM , go to wipe data/factroy reset, wipe cache & dalvik & reboot.
Tried that samething happens. I hear boot sound but screen is black. I can flask recovery through Odin but won't let me flash any firmware.

try to flash back ICS rom, if not search far a 3 parts rom to flash it through odin PDA, PHONE & CSC .
What I don't get is that I can't flash stock roms through Odin but everything else can be flashed stock recovery, custom recovery, stock kernel just not stock roms very strange.

If you can flash stock recovery , boot into it & wipe data & reboot.

Had the same problem over the past 24hrs
(I have a GT-N8013 with stock ICS firmware root injected installed, when I went to check if a JB update had come out it didn't recognize the stock root injected firmware as stock and proceeded to try and install ICS without root through TWRP and continued to loop through recovery and installation.. unsuccessfully)
I am now posting this from the GT-N8013 so here's how to do it:
1) Use ODIN to flash CWM (Google them if you don't know what they are. I am new and cant post links yet)
2) Boot Your Note 10.1 into recovery by holding down Volume Up and Power, wait until the samsung logo shows up twice, then release the power button and you should end up in recovery.
3) Wipe Data/Factory Reset
4) Clear Cache
5) Advanced/Wipe Dalvik Cache
-Repeat Steps 3-5 twice (three times total)
6) Reboot and voila! You are back to your original rom all nice and neat.
Tried that as well no go still goes to black screen after the screen that says Samsung galaxy note 10.1. I hear boot sound but Samsung doesn't show up just blank screen.

Was wondering if there is a fix for my problem or am I missing something. Just rooted and installed cm10.1.3 on my 3113. After I flashed the ROM I couldn't get into recovery it would just reboot. I had to use "recovery tools" from the play store to reflash 6023 cwm. Is there a fix or way to keep it from going away after I flash a ROM?

OK. Tried to install CM11 on my phone today. Stupidly tried with ROM manager. The flash failed. I tried to go back to recovery but each time I boot to recovery CWM tries to flash the same ROM. So I couldn't get back into cwm to nandroid restore. Tried re-flashed cwm with Odin but still would try to install the ROM at recovery. Had to flash twrp clear everything re-flash my original ROM and titanium backup restore. Any ideas how I can stop cwm from trying to re-flash the problem ROM if I go back to cwm recovery??

Hi,
What phone variant do you have?
i9505 or i9505G?
Maybe you can find where the recovery script is located that CWM is trying to open? Then delete that file so CWM won't be able to take orders from it.

It's the i9505 but with the Google version of 4.4.2

That's what I was guessing but have no idea where this is stored. It's pretty low level so I'd be surprised if it was file based.

HI,
Do you have the knox bootloader?
Install question
Hiya
Does installing a rom from CWM take ages?
I have tried to install a couple now and they seem to stop at the GT-I9505 screen?
I am installing from ext sd-card

Hi,
Did you wipe your phone clean before flashing?

Hi
Yes - used the wipe option inside CWM
It may have been a problem with the download file - will retry
Have you deleted the ROM or any files that CWM can reference?

The recovery script that it maybe opening as to why it keeps installing things.

A file location would be quite useful at this point??
I have TWRP recovery, and stock rom.
Thing is, I sold to phone to a guy, he tried to install the update and now the phone reboots to recovery. I told him to restore the backup, he did so, but he says it still reboots to recovery everytime he tries. He doesn't boot to bootloader or recovery, but presses power off and then manually turn the phone on - still to recovery. I can't really help him because I can't see what's the problem.
What should we do?
If you have custom recovery you shouldn't take ota search for g2 ota twrp and you will find some helpful threads

Ok but my question is why when I restore it still boots to recovery? If I restored it then it should reboot regularly.
Hello everyone! Think that I did something kinda stupid today..but not sure. I have installed cwm recovery (philz version, latest) but today I was transfering over a backup to my pc (I removed it from phone to pc), well that was what I thought..(the file was TWRP, since it was a twrp nandroid backup and I had twrp before cwm) so later, when I tried to go to recovery, I couldn't, I tried with FreeGee, but nothing happened...so does this mean that I have lost my recovery? I tried to put the files back on phone where they was but it doesn't seem like that have helped...
So any other methods to get into recovery mode? And have I lost it by deleting a twrp file containing a backup and a twrps. file on 2kb?
P.s when I look into the TWRP folder, I don't have the twrps file....is that the problem, and what is that file? Is it loki or something?
P.S 2: My phone is working fine..
Anyone?
If you're still rooted, you could install Goo Manager, which will allow you to install a recovery.

I do have root, and I am running cloudystock 1.2 (kitkat), but can I just install a recovery since I am on a stock kitkat rom? Think I have done it now.....
What ROM did you have when you first installed cwm?
Sent from my VS980 4G using xda app-developers app
I had stock 4.2.2 rom when I first installed recovery, but I overwrited my twrp recovery and installed cwm (that too on stock 4.2.2 rom
Try installing Quick Boot (free in the Play Store.) It provides an easy way to boot into recovery. This should show whether CWM or TWRP are still on your phone.
