[Q] Set Warranty Bit : recovery

Hello, I am MrGovernor.
I have recently purchased a Galaxy Note 3 N9005 and decided to root it earlier today. The device is running on 4.3 because my carrier decide to delay their releases (O2).
About 2 hours ago I then decided to put a custom recovery on it before installing Omega ROM...
Now, me being a newb, I was following about 3 different tutorials at once; I managed to get to the final stage of using ODIN to flash CWM onto the phone (n9005-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.7-kk). Now, I did this and when my phone rebooted it got the initial loading screen and this message appeared:
RECOVERY BOOTING....

This happens when I go into Recovery Mode and when I boot normally. I can still go into download mode.
I am a newb, have I bricked my new phone or is there any way to salvage it?
Thanks a load!

Now... Another issue...
I installed PhilZ Touch Recovery and that has worked fine...
However, I went full retard and 'Wiped System for a New ROM' before I made a backup...
I then tried to flash FoxHound ROM, I managed to get through the install process flawlessly, BUT, when the device rebooted it stays on the boot screen...
What can be done to fix this? As I failed to make a backup of my original 4.3 firmware...
Thanks Again!

oh man...
You are running 4.3, but you flash cwm for KK (4.4.2) ?
You should flash cwm for 4.3 instead.
Try to find the stock firmware, and reflash it.
Cheers!

if you have installed the ROM flawlessly and stuck at the boot screen, try go into recovery again and make a full wipe (but not the wipe for new rom). Then reboot.
But the custom ROM you are flashing is 4.3 also right ?
Because very simple, if you were on stock 4.3, and you flash custom ROM 4.4.2 without update your bootloader first to 4.4.2, the custom ROM won't run.

if your device N9005, you may use any other firmware so long as for N9005.
You can try to flash 4.4.2, but you have to tick "update bootloader" at ODIN. Please note, once you are on 4.4.2, you are not able to go back to 4.3, due to different bootloader.

That's cleared a load up! I'll install the 4.3 firmware and get back to you (Samsung's Firmware Download Servers are incredibly slow <,<)

yeah. good luck

Thanks for all the help!
I used ODIN to flash this file:
N9005XXUENB4_N9005O2UENB1_N9005XXUENB1_HOME.tar.md5
From SamMobile's Firmware.
It's all working now, and it on the 4.4.2 KitKat Built.
Does this mean the bootload has updated and I can install the 4.4 Omega ROM?
This time I will make a restore point on PhilZ Custom Recovery!

when you flash it, u did tick the update bootloader right ?
If yes, means you are now on the 4.4.2 bootloader, and you can install the 4.4 custom ROM (but please read the respective thread on how to flash that custom ROM of your choice)
And when you want to flash Philz CWM, do choose the one for 4.4.2. Try to use the latest one.
Good luck!

But... On last problem...
I've downloaded and used ODIN to install PhillZ Recovery ("philz_touch_6.08.9-hltexx.tar.md5").
It passes in ODIN, and boots straight to android.
However, when I try to boot into recovery mode, I get the normal 3 lines of text, but after a few seconds it reboots back to android...
What do?
P.S: I tried holding down all 3 buttons through the whole process (that just reboots), holding down only the Home and Volume + buttons once the text appears (still reboots)... I've also tried to Re-Flash the same version twice.
I just want to make a backup for this ROM in-case I f*ck up with other ROMs. Sorry for being such a scrub!
------NOTE----------
Installed Latest Version of PhillZ, all works A-OK!

Cuz I asked a question and no one answered me. What would be causing the bootloop on my phone? With stock and custom ROMs, it is bootlooping in and out of recovery and saying set warranty bit recovery ...

But no user has to answer you .
Post and if somebody sees it and has the answer they will .
But on the Q&A board as very few read it now and a day is not long enough.

Yes it is always checked when I use the pit file for flashing

I think with repartitioning with pit file the wipe is unnecessary, but I made it.

How can I use again CWM or TWRP?

Which recovery do you want
Sent from my GT-I9500 using Tapatalk

The main question is how...
I am using TWRP and CWN on my Galaxy S I9000 from 2011, and for a half year on I9505. I installed them several times and no problem.
Now I routed the stock I9505 4.3 ROM and flashing the CWM made it almost brick. I cannot reinstall the same 4.3, only a 4.4.2.
I have read it is "normal", so I am searching for another method.

For sure you can flash your stock 4.3. Because while rooting and flashing a recovery, you didn't upgrade the bootloader. So you can flash your stock 4.3 firmware and try to flash the recovery again. If you want, you could also Odin flash a stock kitkat firmware, but that means: no going back to 4.3.

Yes, you are right...I know it is no downgrade, but my phone did not know. Really, I could not flash anything in that phase, even the original stock 4.3 ROM which was on the phone. I had no phone for 3 days, I tried to flash many times many images: oiginal stock ROM, modified 4.3 bootloader.
But I got in Odin everything is failed. No system, no recovery...
The only successful one was the 4.4.2 stock ROM, I tried it after 3 days. Now I have this version.
So I don't know how can I flash the CWM without bricking my phone.

Note 4 910C Boot loop only with stock rom

I was playing around trying to install CM 12.1 for 910C and I did sucessfully using TWRP 2.8.1.2 and every thing went fine till i wanted to go back to stock rom (N910CXXU1COI4_N910COJV1COH1_N910CXXU1COI4) but after flashing with odin it starts with "installing system updates" but after like 25% it stops and writes "Erasing" then fall into a boot loop stuck on Samsung logo (and recovery shows KNOX: 1)
When I tried to install the custom recovery and rom the phone boots normally
Tried back and forth and tried CWM recovery but every time i go back to stock i get stuck

Did you do a SWM recovery before flashing CM12? Hopefully...
If so restore that. If not, lesson learned.
What were you running before you tried CM12?
Looks like it was older than COI4 and it knows it.
Knox is 1 because it knows you flashed something other than an official stock rom.

I use stock. Flash twrp and wide and flash cm 13. After odin stock and bootlook
Please help me. I speek englis not good. Sorry

1. before that I was using Stock (XSG-N910CXXU1COI4-20150925140936) 5.1.1 flashed through odin and Knox was 0
2. I then installed TWRP 2.8.2.1 then installed (cm-13.0-20151215-UNOFFICIAL-treltexx) then (cm-12.1-20151202-UNOFFICIAL-treltexx)
3. then I flashed the COI4 again and it did the problem
I did not install any radios bootloaders or kernels
the weird thing is that now all roms i download other that CM gives me zip verification error and cannot install
so is there any solution ?
Thanks

Not sure how I can state it any clearer than this
Knox is 1 because it knows you flashed something other than an official stock rom.
You will never be able to fix/clear it. You have tripped the Knox security.
Perhaps you should do more reading before you attempt things on your phone.

Flash a stock ROM. The COI4 is good, it's working. What you are missing is after you get stuck on the logo, try pulling the battery. Boot into the stock recovery and do a factory reset. That should fix it.

Download and flash stock firmware from sammobile.com

I flashed with stock firmware version 5.1..1 from sammobile still same problem, I want to hard reset but can't go into recovery mode, any ideas?

Do you have the correct samsung drivers on your pc? Does odin say added when you plug in your phone?
Did you extract the zip file you downloaded from sammobile? You should flash the tar. Md5 file.

I'm using ODIN v3.10.7 on Windows 10, could that be the problem?

Thats very odd. Usually if you flash new firmware everything would work fine.

Did you do a clean flash? Wipe system, data, cache, dalvik cache?

What rom did you flash?
Downloading over wifi shouldnt be a problem. You can alway double check the md5 to see if it matches.

I flashed custom rom: CM-12.1-20151004-UNOFFICIAL-a53gxx

Stock recovery

Hi all. I'm in need of the stock recovery file for N910H on stock 6.0.1. Preferably in .tar format. Thanks

I believe that sammobile would have the stock rom, which if i remember correctly will automaticly flash stock recovery on flash.
But what problem do you have or why do you need a stock recovery, if i may ask ?

Flashed TWRP on my unrooted phone via Odin. Worked the first time round, and I was able to clear cache. Rebooted, and I've not been able to boot into recovery since. I can boot into download mode, but not recovery mode. Pressing the right buttons just boots up the phone normally. Haven't got root, so I can't use an app to boot into recovery.

Are you absolutely sure that you flashed the right version? I did the wrong version once since the website van be a bit confusing for some phones, a reflash with the right one with Odin saved me

I want to root my phone but it needs to install a custom recovery, if ever I want to get back the stock recovery...
Does flashing the stock rom replace the custom recovery with the stock recovery?
Sorry I'm a noob

Hi there
I didn't got everything but I'll try to help.
Get latest Odin : https://samsungodin.com/download/Odin3_v3.12.3.zip
Get a stock ROM: chose the right one for you

or
https://samsung-firmware.org/model/SM-N910H/
or
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note4/SM-N910H/
Get TWRP: https://eu.dl.twrp.me/treltexx/twrp-3.1.1-0-treltexx.img.tar.html
Get Magisk:

Flash stock ROM.

Thanks sir barlu
Another question, does flashing the stock rom ALONE make my phone stable and usable like a new one?
My phone is Note Edge SC-01G btw
I really wanted this phone to be rooted

Take care to get the right ROM or you could brick your phone! All I said above apply to N910H ONLY!
For your device: www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note-edge/SC-01G/
Maybe another ROM would fit but you have to find out in the other threads...
Sorry if I can't help you more but there are too many differents versions
