You can flash TWRP recovery from Terminal Emulator.

Download the .img
In Terminal Emulator type:
su
dd if=/sdcard/recoveryfilename.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21
Make sure to do it correct.

Hey there. I'm having the same problem. Followed Max's guide on galaxynote3root.com. I receive the successful and passed message in Odin each time but it appears to go into stock recovery I've used cwm and twrp before and know what it looks like, however, no joy. I messaged Max to get his thoughts my Note is the Sprint version. So close I know it.

[Q] [HELP] root Knox

hi i have a samsung galaxy s4 gt-i9505 xxuemj7 with android 4.3 and knox, how can i root and install CWM?
If your root and flash recovery note you will loose KNOX capabilities and trigger the KNOX counter and you can not downgrade to any lower firmware version after that.
If your happy with the above:
Flash CF-Root as PDA in Odin:

Then download any recovery you want to use, and flash again with Odin. Most here recommend TWRP or Philz Recovery.

Cf auto root to CWM?

I used the cf auto root to root my s5 so I don't have any custom recovery.
How do I go about getting a custom recovery? Do I need to unroot via SuperSU then flash cwm through Odin then root through recovery?

Install custom recovery without a computer?

My Motherboard on my I9505 messed up and every few min. I would get no sim card and have to reboot.
I got it replaced and i used kingroot to root my phone. I used one click to root and install cwm last time. I have no computer to install a custom recovery. Is there a way to install custom recovery with flashify or rashr or maybe moble odin pro? I don't want a brick but I need a custom recovery. Please help.....

Flashify should work fine. Use TWRP recovery though. CWM and Philz are outdated and not maintained anymore.
Yes! Flashing worked! First had to flash a custom kernel. Then I flashed a custom recovery. And it worked..... thanks. Rash wouldn't work. It kept flashing stock recovery over my custom recovery.

Solved. Root, Custom Kernel, & Custom Recovery. All with out a Computer. Thanks @Lennyz1988!

Need TWRP and SuperSU beta 2.71 for rooting Marshmallow correctly
You've already tripped KNOX by flashing CF AR, TWRP is a very powerful, and necessary recovery when you're doing things like rooting
Flash TWRP 3.0.0.0 and then that SuperSU zip

"Correctly" are other users having problems with flashing cf-root through pc odin?
If i flash TWRP, will i need to clear data\factory reset my device?
Could you give me link to the required files please, thank you.

No, nothing gets wiped
MM requires newer SuperSU, as you found out older versions have problems
TWRP 3.0.0.0
Code:

ODIN 3.10.7
Code:

SuperSU in the link I posted yesterday
