Hi Guys
I'm on a note 3 n9005 a d have installed the lollipop firmware by the method shown here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/guide-t2983873
but now since I have flashed CWM recovery all it tells me is Could not boot normal and goes back to download mode. Normal booting of the phone works fine.
Can anyone help with this ?
Thanks
Richie
Flash the latest version of TWRP (2.8.5).
how did you install cwm? Try using twrp flash it using pc odin.
Thanks for getting back to my guys.
I eventually flashed TW on and it worked then tried using ROM manager to put CWM on. All this got me was a recovery loop.
The problem I have is I have a CWM backup of my phone and want to restore it but cant using TW.
Any thoughts on how to get CWM working on the phone ?
is there any 2.8.5 TWRP for SM 9005?
I cant find any...

Live demo units are so limited and so far from being a real phones, your phone model is i9505X, so it's not i9505 and so, you won't be able to flash custom ROM on it.

I read your message very well, just "i9505 demo" seems complicating, as the live demo version of the i9505 is the i9505X that's all what i was saying, so if you're sure you have a i9505 phone, then it's not demo.
Back to your problem:
1-what recovery are you using? If TWRP then what version?
2-what rom did you try to flash? And what did you wipe before flashing?

Ok, what TWRP are you using? you should flash android 6 or 7 with the latest TWRP 3, not with an older version, also for stock rom you should download it from a trusted site like sammobile.com, or samsung-firmware.org, other than those i wouldn't recommend, and use Odin 3.07 or 3.09, those versions works for everyone.

OK, did you format system partition as ext4 in TWRP?, f2fs may have problems with system partition.

In advanced wipe menu, Mark the system partition, then press the button at the bottom that says "repair or change file system", and choose EXT4 then format the system, and see if that works, if it didn't work, try doing the same for /data and /cache partitions.

OK, last suggestion is, download the most latest firmware for your phone from sammobile.com and flash it with Odin, and then try the twrp flashing thing again.
Maybe you have an old bootloader.

Check phone model by booting to download mode first .

In certain cases, custom recovery won't stick after reboot. The stock firmware will replace it.
Best procedure is to untick "Auto-reboot" in odin and flash TWRP or Phil'z, then manually reboot directly to recovery.
<I use rom manager to flash my Cwm>
Thats your problem . Dont use rom manager at all .Multiple identical posts on the forum .
TWRP is better than CWM, in my opinion. More custom ROMs seem to be more compatible for some reason with TWRP.
2.8.7 to be on the safe side
