Hi to all.
When i restore factory settings with the original recovery on the Android menu (Settings--Acount...), the S4 never enter the recovery menu and do the restore without problems.
Now, i have a CMW and when i try to restore on the Android menu, the S4 reset itself and enter the new recovery mode, and ask this :""Root access possibily lost. Fix?" I am root, so i don't know why asks this.
Is there any way to avoid enter the recovery menu? I know that i can restore on the recovery menu, but i want to do it on the android menu without entering the recovery menu.
I have an i9506 with 4.3 Android
Thanks and cheers!!!!!!!

Hi there,
I wanted to install latest CM10.1 coming from 0526 yesterday on my Defy+.
Did a backup with TWRP first.
Then the flashing failed, so I wanted to recover from backup.
Phone now is stuck at Motorola M not booting anymore.
When I enter bootloader (vol down) and want to enter "custom recover" he just jumps back to the same menu. TWRP is not starting.
Choosing "stock recovery" is possible, but if I choose a CM10.1 zip file it's not accepted.
RSD Lite does not recognize the phone when it's in the bootloader menu or in the stock recover menu.
Help is very much appreciated, what can I do?
Thanks and best regards.

Okay, I found out why I couldn't enter flash mode by using Vol+ when starting.
The phone powered already up when I put in the battery, so I always pushed Vol+ too late.
Pressing Vol+ WHILE inserting the battery did the trick, phone went into flash mode and I could re-flash 2.3.6 sbf using RSD lite.

Still not sure why TWRP was messed up just by recovering from a TWRP-made backup...
Best regards
Same situation to me.
I opened Terminal Emulator, gained root access
then type below command to get recovery mode
# reboot recovery
Custom recovery not running
I have a similar issue.
I rooted my stock S4 and installed the proper TWRP.
Heres where my situation is a bit different from anything I have seen on the forum threads. All attempts—both hard and soft—to reboot into recovery, all direct the reboot to Odin Mode. Just to clarify I have not flashed any rom custom or stock, the only thing I have flashed has been TWRP and CWM recovery. And I only flashed CWM AFTER the Failings of TWRP.
When I attempt to boot into recovery, it flashes the blue characters then sends me into a Odin Mode loop until I hard-key the "download mode" and select restart to boot the os normally.
my phone works fine other than not being able to flash custom roms, which is a pain in the arse especially with all the s4 Bloatware.
Here's what I have done so far to help myself:
• install CWM recovery
• tried hard-key reboot recovery (power off/ press home/volume up/power)
• soft reboot recovery through both Goo, CWM and ROM Toolbox pro
• removed my sd card and tried reboot recovery
• removed battery and reboot recovery
• emulator reboot recovery
• reboot recovery both with and without usb cable
I looked into flashing stock with Odin but all tutorials i could find were of an older version and I didnt want to guess what I needed to get that to work,
Please let me know if theres anything I can do.

for some reason, I cant enter recovery. I managed to enter in the Download menu and installed a new ROM (Odin) all went well, the phone rebooted, and guess what ? The phone was exactly the same , lik eI didnt do anything...
Im so glad its my last Samsung...
Do you have a custom recovery installed? Twrp or cwm?
after odin flash, did you try rebooting to recovery and resetting from there?
so here is the problem...!
i was going to flash my lg g2 d800 with custom rom which is marshmallow i rooted my mobile than install autorec after that i boot into recovery than wipe the cache data and system but not the internal storage and after that i update the twrp and then select the option boot into recovery but unfortunately my mobile stucked in bootloop whenever i tried power button + volume down button it goes into factory reset instead of recovery ....!anyone please help and i apologize for my English
When you're at "factory reset" just press yes until TWRP appears. It will not reset the phone.
Hi. Having a issue with my girlfriends phone. Don't know what happened, but it got stuck in bootloop. So I did a Odin flash, phone had custom Rom before this.
Now it's stuck on bootloop, and some times ends up like pictured.
Can enter download mode, but not recovery. I guess this has something to do with it having twrp before I flash stock on Odin?
That no command screen is shown first when recovery is booted. You either have to wait a bit for it to show or need to play around with a combination of keys to unhide the recovery menu.
Also when you go back to stock firmware from custom Rom firmware you have to factory reset your phone to boot it up again.
Finally, after about 3 hours I finally got access to recovery menu. First time I could not make any selection, 2nd time I got to factory reset and wipe clean. Now it's booting normally!
Key combination
Hi, which key combination did you use to get access into recovery menu?
