My phone was running CM 11 M12 with TWRP 2.7.1.0 recovery. I used ROM Tools from JRummy to flash the TWRP 2.8.3.0 image, and it flashed successfully. I rebooted into recovery to verify, but my phone ended up stuck in download mode. I couldn't reboot to system or recovery, it kept coming back to download mode. I attempted to unbrick via ODIN by flashing an old 4.2.2 stock tar file (using Qbking77's "How to Unroot and Unbrick the Samsung Galaxy S4" YouTube video), but now it is stuck in a bootloop at the AT&T logo. When I try to reboot into recovery, the Samsung Custom screen appears, "recovery booting" appears on top, and the phone reboots again back to system and proceeds to get stuck at the AT&T logo once more. This has all has to be related with my recovery getting screwed up, but I have no idea how to fix that issue.
I really don't want to be without a working phone any longer than I need to, any help would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: Before CM 11, I was running Danvdh's GS4 4.4.4 GPE ROM, which changed my phone's model number to i9505. Should I redo the unbrick with an i9505 tar file? Again, any help will be appreciated.
Do not flash a 9505 file. Go to sammobile.com and download the 4.2.2 file for the i337. Try that in Odin

I upgraded my Note 3 (N9005 LTE) to ofiicial kitkat 4.4.2 with Odin. I'm also rooted and everything working flawlessly, except I can't install neither TWRP, or CMW recovery, i tried both but geting bootloop with following messages:
Kernel is not seandroid enforcing
set warranty bit: kernel
And it just getting bootloop over and over. I can force download mode, and restart phone, and everything works great, except recovery.
I flashed recovery trough Odin, it's note first time I'm doing it, I followed instructions carefully, so doubt it was my error.
NOTE: After flashing CMW, after couple of bootlops,ODIN actually said PASS, still can't acess recovery, though...
Hope someone have a solution for this?
Thanks in forward
Make sure you are using the most recent recovery version:
[CWM] Kitkat compatible version by Chenglu
[TWRP] Kitkat compatible test version by the twrp maintainer
[TWRP] My (unofficial) kitkat compatible version
I am not getting bootloop but..
I do not have bootloop, but when I try to enter recovery mode the phone it says: Secure Fail Recovery. Then below the yellow triangle it says, System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has not been found on your phone. Please turn off your phone and go to the nearest store for help. I was installing CWM for the Note 3. Anyone know how to fix this and install a custom recovery? I cannot enter recovery at all.
Hi,
I just received my galaxy s4 i337 today. I was already installed rom Deadly Venom on this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2503692 (4.4.2)
Then I want to flash to this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2349077
But I found that I can't enter Recovery so I downloaded Recovery ClockworldMod from Play Store, install then install CWM. Then I boot into recovery then TWRP shown up. I wipe everything (system, data, cache, ... exclude usb-ota and one thing I don't remember). Then I flashed new rom.
After reboot, the phone stuck at Samsung Galaxy S4 logo, blue led blinking. Then I restart to recovery mode, flash this rom again, and wipe cache/davik. Now the phone still stuck at logo, no led light blinking anymore and I can't enter recovery mode anymore (
I've searched all night to find how to solve my problem but it seem that I've to know my firmware version (mdl, mf2, mk3,....) to flash stock but I have no idea how to know that
I'm downloading I337UCUAMDB_I337ATTAMDB_ATT to try to flash by odin but I still very scare that it not work because I was totally lost.
Please help!!! Thank you!!!!!!
@BigShix
If u used TWRP or CWM recovery then MDB or MDL odin should fix your phone. If u use SafeStrap Recovery then u need either MF3 MK2 NB1 or NC1 odin, as long as that u are able to go to download mode/ODIN mode on your phone.

@ted77usa
Thank you for your advice. I will try MDL and MDB rom first and let you know if I have any problem.
Sorry missed the responses to the op.
If you were able to boot into twrp you're probably on mdl firmware. Start with that in Odin

EDIT: Sorted it, flashed TWRP in odin and it worked this time.
I have rooted my i9505 (5.0.1 stock Baseband i9505XXUHOD5) using CF-auto and Odin but I cant install a custom recovery. When I try in odin it says pass but then gets stuck in a loop at reboot. When i go to recovery its still stock and the only way out of the loop is to factory reset abd then try again. It looks like a Vodaphone Germany rom thats been unlocked installed. Any ideas please? I want a custom rom to get rid of the Samsung crap in the background.
Thread can be closed
As you have solved it,like this you open this thread for nothing
And also, CWM and Philz are outdated and out of support(only for this device), always use TWRP[emoji6]

I have Note 4 model N910H firmware 5.1.1 and I rooted it using chainfire method. I checked using root checker and it says my phone was rooted properly. So I install TWRP latest recovery using flashify. The phone rebooted to recovery mode fine but it says that my phone not rooted so I'm confused and I let TWRP rooted it again. After that I reboot to system and I can't enter it instead it was stuck looping samsung and android logo.
So, what can I do? I can enter TWRP recovery and download mode. I know I can flash it to stock 5.1.1 but I dont know what version to use from SamMobile (XID/XSE, I'm from Indonesia) and there's different PDA/CSC version. So if I just pick one of them and flash it to my phone will it be okay? I want to avoid flashing to be honest because the rom size is so big so is there's a way to fix it without flashing?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
My N9005 is unable to boot into recovery, whenever i try it will start to boot and then just restart itself.
When trying to reboot normally the cyanogenmod loading screen is very laggy and it just reboots after a while.
occasionally it will start normally (1/20 tries).
I tried to reflash twrp with odin but it makes no difference.
Cyanogenmod version 12.1-20161016-NIGHTLY-hlte.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Flash stock rom via Odin to get a working phone.
Or restore your Nandroid.
Reflashed stock rom and phone was working perfectly. stock recovery was also working.
Then rooted with CF-autoroot and it went well.
Then i tried to install TWRP custom recovery and it still won't let me boot to recovery.
Android version is 5.0 if that matters?
Edit: Managed to make it work with another version
Did you find a solution? I have thee same issue
Thanks

good evening everyone,
I come back to this forum because I have this beautiful phone that I can not update the android version 9.
On the recovery I can not go beyond the version 2.8.7.0, if I try to put a more recent version it remains in bootloop even if I restart manually.
To know that I have the HTLE model, the only thing is that I replaced the screen with a Chinese model.
then I put the original version back via odin and it goes back to version 5.
I am completely desapointed, I do not know what to do to put it under android 8+ !!!!
PLEASE HELP
