So I am not to NOOB but I sure acted like it last night when I was way tired and tried to flash a ROM. Here is what I did...
I didn't catch that I didn't have the CWM but that I had booted into the stock recovery tool... Well I didn't before it was to late that is...
I clicked WIPE DATA
I clicked WIPE CACHE
Then noticed there was no "install from SD"
So it seems like whatever I find to install from ODIN I can't get the CWM to install so I can then flash a ROM!
I need my phone up for work, I am in HOT SH!T!
How can I either flash a rom via stock recovery "update format" OR install CMW via ODIN?
PLEASE HELP ASAP!!
Thank you
why don't you just flash again via odin and then root your phone via odin as well?
Don't quite understand whats your problem. So what if you wiped data and cache the rom is still there. Reboot normally and flash cfroot according to your firmware and then you should have cwm up and running. After that flash desired rom and the end.

Flash one of the CF-Root kernels through Odin, whichever one matches the firmware you're running. They have CWM baked in, along with root so you can flash a ROM afterwards.
If you can't get into download mode, turn your phone off, plug it in and hold down + power + home and it should boot into download mode. Then you can flash with Odin.
I thought the same thing, that so what that I wiped them... but when I rebooted the phone it just sits at the "Rethink possible screen"
I can get into download mode and I did find the "cf" post but I dunno what kernel I am running as I can't boot to go into settings to seek.
if you in recovery mod choose reboot, and it will be ok, than read: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399,
or put in download mod: turn your phone off, hold down + power + home. Then flash with Odin.
I know you probably don't want to, but you can try doing a factory reset, that should allow you to get your phone up and running. If you have gmail installed it should put all your contacts back, as long as you backed up to gmail.
If you have an old copy of titanium backup you won't loose ALL your apps, this is why I tend to back up every weekend, I'm only a week behind with everything if problems arise....

Flash stock rom... Download cwm and flash with odin.... Then instal rom u want with cwm...
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
like I said, I am not a noob, just made a mistake...
I found the cf-kernel page, but I dunno what kernel I am running and so I dunno what kernel to flash (It seems vital)
"just rebooting" don't work lol I wish... it hangs at the "rethink possible" boot screen...
I was rooted but running the stock rom, if I can get CWM installed I think I will be golden, but whatever I seem to flash from ODIN don't work :-( no matter what nothing will flash as "PDA" but when I flash using "phone" it seems to install "zimage" which is the embedded file and succeeds and phone reboots... but still only to the rethink possible point.
flash any stock firmware then flash supercore 2.0 and do whatever you want from there
Think i know what the problem is,i have same issue sometimes,try flashing anogher rooted Kernel through odin,make sure its like if the rom is a kj3 that it has a kj3 kernel.see if that works

Be glad to but it isn't an option in the recovery?
My options are as follows...
Reboot system now
Apply update from SD
Wipe/reset
Wipe/cache
been in similar, if not same situation, things were missing from cwm recovery, like you wrote...if memory serves me fine,
flash stock fw with pit, repartition and everything...
then some rootec kernel with recovery...
Oh sh!t... just flashed the pit file here... http://www.darkyrom.com/community/i...-with-odin/#download-a-pit-file-for-the-i9100
and odin said success... and screen went black.
Not responding at all now :-(
let's go in a safe way...as long as you have download mode, you're OK.
Go to samfirmware or somewhere on XDA and find FULL STOCK FIRMWARE with proper .pit file and flash it with odin. Not kernel, not anything that is not full rom.
since you state that you are not noob, you know what from there.

What on earth are you doing?
It clearly states:
I9000 & I897 owners (not I91000!!!) may also need a PIT file (also included in RE ROM ZIP files). I will explain further what it's for.
Why didn't you follow a tutorial on xda? Can you boot in download mode?

Hello guys
I tried to flash a wifi fix modem in Odin and now I cannot boot my phone and cannot flash a stock ROM.
I was on Omega7 (which has wifi problems)
Bought Phone Odin, chose to flash firmware (found the modem files I had downloaded)
Phone reboot to download mode, so I thought it had not worked, and tried to flash it in Odin PC version... but it got stuck at boot.img
So I unplugged, restarted Odin/Phone and tried again and again, but no luck.
So I tried flashing a Stock rom (I9505XXUBMEA_I9505OXABMEA_I9505XXUBMEA_HOME.tar.md5) but that gets stuck at boot.img too.
What can I do?
When I try to boot the phone, it says something about going to Kies and doing recovery there... but that assumes I have got some backup file to recover from, besides, Kies does not find my phone, it recognises it is plugged in, but continues searching for it.
Any bright ideas?

Hi,
I've tried several times flashing Clockworkmod 6.0.3.3 and other versions of Clockworkmod for S4 I9505, but after flashing it using Odin 1.85, Odin says ok, and reboot my phone, but after I turn the phone off, and try to start phone into recovery mode using power, volume up and home button at the same time, my phone doesn't find anything to use, so it starts in regular recovery mode (Default as from Samsung).
Anyone have an idea why Clockworkmod won't work on the phone, even when Odin says ok on flashing?
I've made sure that I downloaded the correct file for my phone.
My phone is a euro version, that shouldn't matter?

Download the attached link. You find a folder of s4 root. Odin 1.85 and Cwm file and a rooting file(only if you need root)
An odin 1.85 specialy for gti 9505. Big thanks to chainfire.
Turn your phone in downloadmode. Connect your Phone to your pc. Open odin and select pda and select the file i9505-cwm-recovery -6.0.3.2-4
Start.
After the phone is rebooting, turn your phone off.
Then volume up,home button and powerbutton at the same time. When you see on top a blue text" recovery booting" let go of the 3 buttons and it boots in cwm. This should do the trick.

Thanks for trying to help me out, but still I got no luck with this,
After the flashing, when I try to go into recovery mode I can see that the phone tries to install or update something, but a sec after I get some sort of fail message and I'm back to default recovery mode.
I can't understand what seems to be the problem.
Could it be that my phone might be locked to a carrier?

after that turn off your phone . phone in downloadmode, open odin, select pda, select cwm 6.0.3.2-4, hit start
Your phone is rooted with cwm.
What rubbish!
You DO NOT need to root your phone to install a custom recovery. Are you sure you have i9505??
Download the latest Philz CWM recovery in .tar format and flash this in Odin 1.85.
I've done this on 6 different S4s and NEVER had an issue.
Seems strange that your having problems dude.

Do you have a proper USB connection between Odin PC and your phone?
Try another USB cable or/and another USB port ...
Did you remember to kill all KIES processes running in background?

in some stock firmwares, when you boot the phone, the stock recovery is re-writing over the flashed custom one:
root your phone, and with a root explorer go to system, delete "recovery-from-boot.p" or rename it to "recovery-from-boot.p.bak"
then go to system/etc, delete this file: "install-recovery.sh" or rename it to "install-recovery.sh.bak.
now you can flash your custom recovery.

I'm using an Samsung retail cable from the S2, but I did try with the S4 retail cable aswell, but still no luck. The flashing goes ok in Odin, so I doubt the cable is the problem. And Kies isn't running in the background at all. Even changed USB port just to be sure testing all the options.

Ok, so I might have to root my phone and try this out then.. I was hoping to avoid rooting for now.
And the way to root is done using Odin as described in an earlier post?
Will it be possible to reset the counter later on if I need to go back to stock ROM if the phone should need to sendt to service etc? I know it is possible to reset the counter on S3.

if you want to be sure, flash custom recovery, do not check "auto-reboot" or when it says "pass" unplug and take off the battery, then reinsert it, boot straight to recovery so you should see the custom recovery. but once you reboot the phone the stock recovery will be back .
any way, you can root in any method you want.
why you want to flash custom recovery without rooting??
once you flashed anything unofficial with odin, the counter is triggered.
yes you can reset it with triangle away.

Ok I tried to flash the clockworkmod without checking the auto-reboot and it worked like you said.
The reason I don't want to root the phone is, because I actually don't need it, never had any use of it on other phones.
Ok then I have to root it like you said to make i work properly.

hmmm, so why you need cwm?
EDIT: usually these 2 files (that reflash stock recovery) come with some OTA update. So if you dont want to root, you can flash a stock firmware with odin (those 2 files are not included) in order to flash custom recovery without rooting.
any way, when you flashed custom recovery, your binary counter is triggered. so you need triangle away to reset it for warranty ====> you need root access!

Hi there. I think I soft-bricked my phone. I am running mf3 firmware on my i337 galaxy s4 and i tried to flash Graviton. I was using safestrap and I, like an idiot, didn't use a romslot and did it over my stock. Seemed to work fine until I actually booted the phone. It can't access wifi and therefore wont go past the find wifi screen. I try to enter recovery but it just keeps going to the download screen. After trying every way I could find I still cant either wipe my phone or flash the stock firmware. I have tried kies and odin but nothing works. Can anyone help me out or am I royally screwed?

as long as the phone can go into download mode, you can use odin to reflash the stock firmware (and factory recovery). Check samsungupdates for your model/region and stock/official firmware. You'd have to re-root after. I did the same thing a while back, lost my recovery and this is the method I used to bring my phone back to life, was just sitting at the samsung logo and had no recovery (but had download mode).

Does Odin recognize the phone? Also, when you say it won't go past the "find wifi" screen, does that mean it booted to the "Welcome" screen?

Sorry should have edited the first post. I actually fixed my original problem and am now having a different one. I got all the way through nd did a restore of my stock rom. I then tried to flash the graviton one to a different rom-slot in safestrap. So now there is a completely different partition in the storage and the flash didnt work so I'm now completely stuck in download mode. I have tried to flash the tar files in odin and it fails every time. I should have all of the necessary files for mf3.

If you have the 16GB Galaxy, try flashing this file in the PIT slot in Odin.. Don't put any other files in the PDA slot, etc. It's worked many times when phone would only boot to download..
https://www.dropbox.com/s/fptxnxsqevjhnt9/SGS-I337_16GB.pit
Hey Nerdyblonde, what does this pit file do?
I softbricked my phone when trying to flip from CWM to TWRP. (Thought I could just wipe phone and odin flash on top of CWM... VERY WRONG). Now I can't get into recovery and my phone is telling me to use kies recovery *shudder*. So I tried kies when I couldn't Odin flash to stock rom and still nothing.

Sorry it took a few days to answer.. The Kies screen was the same thing that happened to me... I have the MF3 version, so I can't install custom recovery, but I couldn't boot into recovery period. I flashed that pit file in the pit box on Odin, it restored my recovery.
Do you have MDL or MF3? If you have MDL, I would be really careful not to flash MF3 unless you want to stick with basically stock until one of the geniuses here figures out how to unlock the bootloader.
I just upgraded to the 4.4.2 by baja. The system would not reboot when I clicked reboot and the Bluetooth would not work. I opened rom manager fixed my permissions then like a dummy clicked reboot in to recovery. now it shows the custom screen when booting up then 1 second later it says recovery booting and just does this over and over again. I have tryed to get this into odin mode and it wont work. on rom manager I had set my system to twrp.
If anybody can help please do its my only phone. thanks!

Only thing I can suggest is to do a battery pull. Wait about 10 seconds then replace the battery and put the phone in download mode. You should then be able to Odin back to stock and start over.
Hope this helps.

I did something similar. I wanted to try the new Rick Rom and without thinking clicked reboot to recovery from the power menu enabled thru Wanam. Pulling the SD didn't work for me.
What should I flash in ODIN to fix this? I still have the rooted 4.4.2 build and firmware tar, or do I need to go all the way back to 4.3?
Never mind, I flashed the 4.4.2 firmware and all is good.
4.4.2

You should be able to follow the instructions from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2726558 just from the Odin part. That's what I would do. Anybody else have any other advice? I would stay with 4.4.2 can you get into Odin mode?
