[Q] Accidently closed TWRP

Hi guys, I will try and explain this as simple as possible.
I as trying to install cyanogenmod 11 on my phone, and everything seemed to go alright until I made a mistake. I used TWRP to first backup my stock rom on the phone, and then when I was supposed to reboot into the app, I accidently rebooted the phone.
Now the problem is that the phone does not have any OS installed, so what is happening is that it's trying to boot into an OS that's not there, and instead ends up being stuck on the Samsung logo. I can enter Odin mode just fine, but for the love of god I cannot seem to figure how to get back into the TWRP application, or if it is even possible.
I do have the backup of the ROM stored on my SD card, and I've now moved it over to my PC, but it still does not seem to help me in any way. I've trid to launch the Odin3 program on my pc, in an attempt to to try and launch in TWRP through that, but it has all been without any success, so now I come to this board of guinesses, asking for help!
As an added bit of information, this was my first time trying to install a custom rom, so yeah.. Puff..
- The lost Dane.
- Edit -
I tried to "flash" by doing what this link said, in the hopes that my phone would boot into the program, but alas, it only booted back to the logan saying "samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005" :/

-- Edit Edit --
To make it super clear ... If I could get back into TWRP, I would be able to run my backup. I know how that app works, I just simply cannot get back into, and I do not know if it is even possible. I've searched and tried various guides to "flash TWRP through Odin" but it has all been without any success... :/

Did you hold volume up+home+power button to get into recovery mode?
In case your twrp get corrupted due to flashing failure previously
1. Download twrp from the following. 2.6.3.7 if you were running 4.3 or 2.6.3.8 if you were running 4.4.2(not sure if 2
6.3.8 is 4.3 compatible). For odin flashable use the one with .tar
http://www.techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/hlte
2. Get into download mode(vol down+home+power)
3. Link the downloaded .tar to pda in odin. Odin log should show 'added' once you connect phone to pc
4. Start the process. Once finish phone should boot into recovery automatically but it'll try to boot back into OS. Just hold vol up+home+power button to get back into recovery

When I do that, I get an ultra short blue text appearing on the screen, before it goes into downloading mode, with a red text saying "Could not do normal boot." So it basically goes right into odin mode.

I edited my post. You need to reflash twrp

You are an absolute god. I wish I could show my appreciation, but I fear words isn't even enough to even begin.. I managed to get into TWRP now, though my backup rom doesn't show up anymore, but I suppose that's because I run a different version of TWRP than I did first? Idk, but really appreciate that you were able to get me back into TWRP.

I really do appreciate the help you've given, but I have one final request, and I really do hope it isn't too much to ask. Say I am unable to find the same version of TWRP, I will have to actually flash cyanogenmod onto my device. I don't think it should be too tough now that I've managed to launch into TWRP, because now I should be able to just put the rom on my SD card, and then install the files, no?
if it helps you, my device is SM-N9005, and I had 4.3 when I started this whole thing. Cheers!
- Edit.
I tried to download the Nighty build from CyanogenMod's own homepage, but when I try and install it, it says failed, giving me an erro that says "This package is for "hlexx" devices: This is a." That's all it says ... Hmfh. Sooooooooo... Yes! I'm in recovery mode now, but without any rom. :/

Yes you can flash any cm based rom.
You can also flash any stock rom such as SweetRom/X-Note/BobCat as most developers still keeping 4.3 rom in their thread.

Will that work on the international version of the Note 3 ? I'm starting to believe that's the whole culprint of why I can't get it to work. :/

Believe so. It's because of updater script i guess as described in the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600648&page=2
Try flashing chenglu's 6.0.4.5 recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2454079
Just the same as you did for twrp. I think i read somewhere that changing recovery helped some people.
The worst just download sweetrom/x-note/bobcatrom or any stock 4.3 based rom if you deperately need the phone to boot up

So after having spent the better half of the night, I actually managed to get my phone to boot into cyanogenmod 11 ! But that joy was shortlived when I came to realize that wi-fi wasn't working, and I couldn't get it to work. I tried to factory reset as I had read would help, but alas it did no good. I figured I should try and run back a stock 4.4.2 rom and just be done with it, but that was when I realized I had lost my root (?!) so that wasn't really a possibility either, next I set out to try and find a way to root my phone now running cyanogenmod 11. I found a file here on XDA called "CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.tar" but whenever I try and flash that onto my phone, my phone just stays stuck saying "trying to enter into recovery mode" and does not really go anywhere from there. I can get back into recovery mode if I flash "n9005-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.5(1116)" onto the phone, like you said, but that still leaves me without root access, which I need to throw a rom onto my device?! Arrrgh, this is getting silly, I just wish I could go back to my backup/ default rom on the device, but I can't.

About the cf auto root make sure you flash the one for 4.3. I believe you flashed the one for 4.4.2.
Doesn't really matter whether you have root access or not as long as you can boot into custom recovery. Just flash any custom rom. It'll give you root anyway.
Still if you need root just make sure you flash cf auto root then flash twrp or chenglu recovery. Flash the one for 4.3 that's the most important

But when I have cyanogenmod 11 installed, is that then not 4.4.2 ? I suppose that's what's giving me trouble... I'll try and see if I can find the cf auto root for 4.3 and return back if I was successful or not. Again, thank you for being so patient..

This seems to be the only one I can find; http://download.chainfire.eu/352/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.zip
And I've already tried that one 3 times, but every time I flash it, the phone reboots and keeps trying to enter into recovery mode, and is unable to do so before I've flashed n9005-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.5(1116) again
this is what it says;

You flashed 4.4.2 cm rom but you're on 4.3 booloader. So you need to use cf auto root for 4.3 which is available here

Just enter download mode and reflash twtp. I saw there are 4 different versions for 4.3(2.6.3.0/2 6.3.5/2.6.3.6/2.3.6.7). Flash 1 by 1 and see if it can restore your backup

You really are a boss with a heart of gold! I used the file you linked me, ran it, and sure enough it installed and gave me root access. Believe it or not, but I am learning from this! The whole thing about bootloader being different from the rom version was new to me. But I am up and running with root access now, so now I hope it shouldn't be too hard to get a stock rom thrown in. I've kinda given up on my backup. I no longer care for the files I had before, now I just want the phone up and running with wifi.. X_ X
- Edit
Or do you have any clue as to what is causing wifi to not work? I really don't mind the rom at all, I quite like it, but where I live wifi is mandatory as it's a lowered area with mountains around me, meaning LTE really isn't viable while at home.

Not sure about the wifi problem but yes you're good to go with a new rom. Make sure to choose only for 4.3 bootloader else you will run into problem later

Download the one for 4.3 bootloader, once download I place the zip folder on my SD card
- Then boot into Recovery mode, wipe phone clean, and then install the rom directly from inside of Recovery mode?

[Q] LG G2 bricked and can't flash stock firmware!

So I'm really into Android developing, I'm always flashing and installing etc, but I got a problem now.
Phone information​
LG G2 D802
Rooted
TWRP Recovery 2.7.0.0
Was running 4.4.2, found a kdz file on the internet and flashed it (no regular update from my phone)
What happened​I actually did something stupid, I received an application update from the LG Download Center (or whatever it's called) on my phone and clicked on it. I was planning on flashing Android 4.4.2 again because my firmware was not stable, and I thought this update could help me.
But no, after it finished downloading, I automatically booted into recovery.
What I did​So I tried to reboot and enter my OS, but unfortunately, I was stuck in recovery.
I did everything I could, wiping (Dalvik) cache, factory reset, flashed a new rom, restored Nandroid backup, but no, every time I booted, I got back into recovery again.
I only saw 1 option left, booting into download mode and flashing a new firmware.
I found the Netherlands 16GB kdz file for Android 4.4.2 (because I had a French one first), the one I was looking for.
Looked all over the internet, and all guides pointed me to this guide.
Tried it, but I got multiple errors, one of them was that my phone was not connected while I was at 15% of the flash process.
What happened​After that first flashing process, I booted up, but got a Security Error. After the Security Error was showing for 5 seconds, my phone shut down. This is happening every time I try to boot up.
I couldn't access my recovery anymore, nothing. Edit: I can access my recovery right now, and I tried this, but when I boot up I get the Security Error again.
The big problem right now is the Security Error! How do I bypass that?
So can someone please help me out!
Several phones/tablets of mine bricked and I always found a way to get out of it, but not this time, unfortunately...

Have you tried this

Yes, I actually have. Didn't mention it, but after I did that I booted and got an LG logo and below it was a text that said 'Security Error' After like 5 seconds the security error goes away and my phone shuts down. I can only enter download mode right now.
I'll edit my first post with this info.
Thanks for the help though!
Edit: I find a way to access my recovery again because at first I couldn't but I figured out that the code in the thread you linked was a bit different than the code I entered at first.
So I used the code you gave me, but now I get the Security Error again!

Hi mate, just like you i downloaded that damn OTA today and messed up my phone, but in my case was because i had totally forgotten it was rooted and had custom recovery installed :silly::silly::silly::silly:
I followed this tutorial to fix the boot secure error http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142 and it worked like a charm except for download mode wasn't working at all.
After doing some research i found this post http://forums.androidcentral.com/ge...ricked-lg-g2-stuck-twrp-no-download-mode.html and got download mode (apparently) working again but Windows didn't recognize it at all so i couldn't use it to flash the .kdz stock firmware.
In the end i just flashed a custom aosp rom and got my phone back to life but the download mode issue it's still there and it's bothering me quite a lot.
Any suggestion is welcome.
EDIT: Don't download the recovery from the post, instead look for the latest version (2.7.0.0) because the one posted there (2.6.3.2) might corrupt your partitions

Thanks! But does my internal storage get whiped? Will all my pictures etc. be gone?
And the first thred removes the security error right? And after that I can just boot into recovery mode (I can boot in recovery btw) and flash a new rom? Just wanted to know this so I don't go through all that trouble for nothing
Edit: You know I can enter both download and recovery mode right?

Nope internal SD remains intact, basically what you'll be doing is pushing the right files into the system partitions and yes, in theory you should be able to flash a new rom.
Even if you can boot into recovery you should do it if you're getting that error, and after that you can just push a ROM file to flash (i'll assume you know how to do it) and btw let me know if you decide to flash a stock based rom instead of an aosp like i did.
Good luck with that :good:

We now have LOLLIPOP for F400K!! Yayyy! Download link in thread

Here, guys. Linking to a thread from a Chinese forum.
And it's not a troll thread! I decided to be brave and flash it! Yayyy! I now have Lollipop on my G3 F400K version but WiFi doesn't turn on as of now. And no root.
Shall use it for the better part of the day and post here.

I cannot understand how to use that... can u help me?

It's pretty straightforward.. Download the three files in the link provided above and flash them from your custom recovery.
Use Google translate for every link.
I've got this on my phone since the last 5 hours and I haven't used it much for bug testing. But the phone works perfectly and the software is a daily driver for sure!

Did you flash modem? Is WiFi working well?

Didn't flash any extra modem. Wifi not turning on. See the first post.
That's only bug I see as of now.

I think modem can help that problem... I ll try. I hope this file won't wreck my recovery partition as 19c did...
And sorry for my bad English

you will see the modem and mods in the info translate it theirs a link there for modems ,patches and mods sorry for my bad english ehehe

is it really for F400K ? I dont think that, it look like a ported from D855
I also saw a ported package from F400S at http://www.fshare.vn/file/1CMRFVXM4A/ (I flashed and it worked - 1 week ago - I back to stock 4.4.2 to wait for OTA)

where did you get that link can u share the forums?

i lost root. And now I can't flash a new ROM. Any heads up?

I think you're screwed since you're running the new bootloader (or kernel, not sure) you can't downgrade, and since there isn't lollipop for f400k you need to wait

Have you tried a "adb reboot recovery"? My f400k on cloudy won't enter bump recovery with any of the usual start up sequences I have found. The only way I can do it is with reboot to recovery on the restart menu or "adb reboot recovery" maybe yours is the same?

Mine boots into stock recovery.
I don't even have root.
Kdz method doesn't work because Flash toll recognizes the phone has a d855.
Flashing a d855 dll is suicide.

Have you had a look at the return to stock guide? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
I haven't done it from Lollypop nor do I know much about this kind of thing so make sure you do some research first.

Heyy mine is like yours, I can't enter recovery when on boot. But can enter with a app or menu (tweakbox).
How do I fix this? I am afraid of bootloops and want to get into recovery when I get one.

Please let me know if you find out.
I asked the super helpful guys in the bump IRC chat room but no luck. I am going to be super careful about what I flash until a method is found.

The root method does work. I'm not sure about the recovery part though.
**edit**
I went to this website and downloaded TWRP version 2.8.5.0 and it works. As for the functionality, i'm not sure. I tried doing the backup and it was working but then the screen shut off but the back and home buttons were still lit up and the screen would not turn back on with the power button so i just pulled the battery. Also of note, there are two strips of bright blue on either side of the main UI. There was an error that said the UI could not load properly, but like i said, it was starting to backup. I'm more of a CWM kind of person so i am going to try the T-Mobile version of that and see what happens. http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/trltetmo/openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-trltetmo.img.tar
Good luck.
**edit2**
I turned off the screen timeout feature and the backup went fine. I'm going to test to see if I can restore from that backup tonight.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot. Just to make sure I'm not misunderstanding, this recovery is what will grant me root, correct? It's my first time messing with CWM so I'm a bit worried.

Whoa wait. First you need to follow the root method by flashing the sc-01g recovery. Boot the phone and install/update busy box and SuperSU. Then you can reflash to twrp or cwm.

Thank you!

when i get into Recovery Mode it allways error "recovery seandroid enforcing".how can i fix it?:crying:

Tried FlashFire twice , no good...

I have a S4, I337 AT&T device and I think I bricked it by trying to install TWRP, it didn't work... I was trying Muniz_ri's "Update to i337 ok2 5.0.1 and keep root", I couldn't get the Flashfire to load, lots of stuff about rooting and no Supersu something... Any help..?

If you i337 is not on mdl or mdb bootloader you can not install TWRP.
If you phone is brick how could you install the flash fire?
Flashfire works well with stock rom. Are you on custom rom?
In note section of the muniz_is post , the #4 stated that "4. If you are not already rooted (or to unbrick) you must first flash the I337UCUFNB1_Rootable_Full_Odin.tar (use Odin's PDA slot (AP in Odin v3.09+), root with Towelroot, then proceed with the above process." . Did you follow that step?

I'm on 5.0.1 Lollipop, the second one From Aug 11 OTA by the seller I bought it from.... I was new to android and didn't know there was a download mode....
The baseband version is: I think it is called I337OCOG0C4... It is the stock rom that came on the phone.... I can't find the stock ROM to redo it( try to at least...) It's on 0C4... I AM rooted , by Kingroot... Verification says so.... Two different versifiers... When I go to flash..., it comes up with that message... I tried removing Busy box and reinstalling it... it was ok... I reinstalled Safestrap .... It loaded fine...
When I got to NC1 flash..., it says it can't see busy box or safestrap, either one might have a problem... They both loaded fine..... I tried flashing the Tar from above... Odin just sat there and finally said fail... twice.... I think the corruption is hurting the ability to enter recovery on the phone.... I can't enter "Recovery Mode" on the phone... It is damaged.... I thought flashing could do it...

If you followed Muniz_is instruction step by step I don't think you should have a problem.
I used SS (safestrap) when I was in kit-kat alot but not anymore. It is tricky to use SS in lollipop. So I can not give you any comment on using SS. I use flashfire app instead.
So every time I want to install the custom rom, I followed Muniz_is instructions. Odin the NB1, use towelroot to root, install flashfire and flash the rooted OC4, install flashfire again and then flash the custom rom.
Muniz_is post is updated to OK2 but I am still using the OC4 files that posted previously. If you want to stay on OC4 do let me know.
What do you mean you can not enter recovery mode? I am sure you know the key sequence (press power+home+volume up) for recovery mode. If your phone is bricked, then you need to press the same keys for at least 10 sec and then let the power button go but keep pressing the home+volume-up until you felt the phone vibrate and see the small blue label at the top of the screen.
To use the odin you have to be in the download mode. To get to the download mode you need to press power+home+volume-down.

Your recovery mode probably works fine.... Mine is corrupt... You must use Recovery mode in Odin... I tried... Failed twice... Tried 4 other .tar's.... No good... A FAIL for each... I guess you have to have Recovery Mode just to allow the device to do anything... I DO appreciate you guys and ALL of your efforts ...... Maybe we could put my device on Android Studio and look at what is hurting it... I'd love that....

I had got myself into same mess in early January 2016 but I got out and all is working perfectly fine with me. Can you successfully get your i337 into download mode? if YES contact me via PM and I can tell you exact steps I performed to get myself back into fully working condition. Believe me it's simple steps not rocket science - just that one needs to perform very carefully.

If someone knew how to view the devices program on Android Studio..., MAYBE something could be done with the programming.... I'm not sure if a "Cut and Paste " would work on there... I guess I need to get a book on Android Studio... I already have it ( Android Studio SDK ) on my computer....

It froze up.... It stopped moving foward to the lower potion of the Recovery program.... At the bottom..., you can choose the different ways to manipulate the program... Mine, both phone stop at the processing sign in....
It will require something more than a few buttons being pressed.... I'll have to learn to use the Android Studio and either rebuild the program from within or to reprogram it from outside..., like with a .tar flash....

I reflashed an At&t .pit file ( using Odin) and it rebuilt my file ( partition) for Recovery mode... Not sure how it did it... Now when I CAN get into recovery mode..., it doesn't recognize the SD card so I can't use the tools in Recovery mode to change the rom to something earlier, like Muniz_ri did in one of his wonderful fixes... (Double thanks Muniz_ri..)
Once Odin sees my device..., I set it up yo start a Muniz_ri renewing rom ( I337UCUFNB1_TWROOTABLE_FULL_ODIN.tar.md5 ) and it gets to "system.img.ext4" about 10% into it and then it freezes up....
Anyone have any ideas..?

If u are able to get to download mode - I strongly recommend first you flash ONLY Stock Partition file.
Then again reboot in download mode and then try the FNB1 file....this may work...but before all this flash proper pit file - refer to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2496517
stock partition file(s) are available on xda - search and download....
