TWRP and Philz Recovery don't work

I tried TWRP and it's fine other than it doesn't flash any ROMs that I've tried.
Decided that I should try Philz Recovery ery and that booted fine the first time, tried to do a backup but gave me an error and told me to reboot. It wouldn't boot back into the recovery.
Should I flash stock firmware and try again? Or is there a problem with the phone?
Thanks

Just check the root status if that's ok Or re root
Else flash stock rom reset the device root using Cf root and flash philz recovery all should be ok

Broken recovery (NOT MF3)

Hello
I just tried switching my recovery. I had an autoloki recovery and didnt think id have to reflash lokidoki but i clicked reboot recovery and now everytime i try to boot into recovery, it says unauthorized software and at the top it says secure boot kernel. What should i do? I have tired reflashing cwm but it didnt fix it and goomanager says that there is no recovery for me.
thanks guys

[Q] Recovery Error

I flased CWM and it was fine, then I needed PhilZ for a rom and flashed it.
Since then I cant get into recovery, just black screen then boots normally.
What can I do besides flashing the original firmware?
Try reflashing recovery again?

ODIN flash TWRP custom recovery for your i9505 phone & black screens will be the thing of the past.
Here is the direct download link for the twrp recovery version 2.6.3.1 for the i9505 phone:

Good luck!

Try reflash CWM recovery if cant try other recovery
Install again or install another cwm with carefully...(use the different version of odin).

Maybe I would flash a stock ROM via Odin. And this is a new start and flash new CWM
I think you should flash a different recovery then CWM. Like TWRP or Philz. I think that CWM isn't updated anymore.

[Q] I have both TWRP and CWM recovery on S4

I have stock ROM Android version 4.4.2 and have rooted my device using CF-autoroot, I flashed the img file of CWM 6.0.3.2 using the app Flashify and was then asked "ROM may flash stock recovery on boot. Fix?" when rebooting to system and answered with "Yes - Disable recovery flash". When the device rebooted I was returned to CWM and everytime I reboot I return to CWM so I flashed TWRP using ODIN, yet when I reboot I return to CWM and can only reach TWRP if I click on Advanced>reboot to recovery.
What should I do?
Flash the whole stock firmware and start from beginning. When you have rooted again, flash cwm or twrp via odin.
^ What he said.
I think you messed up your bootloader. Had a similar issue on an Galaxy S Advance. Flashing a bootloader solved the issue
