I have a SM-N9005 (on 4.4.2) which is facing boot loops (doesn't pass the animated Samsung logo). Tried to enter recovery mode but it reboots after a few seconds after seeing the blue recovery booting wordings.
I am able to enter to download mode and managed to successfully flash the stock firmware (from samfirmware.com) using ODIN 3.09. Phone reboots after ODIN finishes flashing and tries to enter recovery mode but it fails as per before.
Tried to root using CF-Auto-Root and tried to use TWRP or CWM recovery modules but unable to boot up to these modules as well.
Any other ideas guys?

After flashing some ROM, I am having trouble because the phone is stuck in Samsung Galaxy IV logo.
First couple times I was able to boot to twrp and do a format, wipe, flash, then davik wipe. The problem is that I was able to restart and set up and update etc but if i restart the phone, it would stuck at boot logo.
So I flashed it again and installed GooManager and installed twrp again, tried to restart and it would just stuck at Samsung boot logo, I can't even get into recovery mode.
I tried using Odin and flash cwm but it would not boot into recovery mode.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
I'll try to flash it with stock ROM with ODIN going into download mode, but somehow I don't think that will work.
I'm using Canadian Rogers Galaxy S4 SGH-I337M
Please let me know if there is anything I can do
Boot to download mode (volume down+ home during boot) and Odin to stock MDJ firmware would be my suggestion. Give it a boot and then factory reset. If hangs on first boot, go into recovery (volume up+ home during boot) and factory reset via recovery. After phone boots install triangle away, reset counter, and then do the OTA update.
Finally got around to updating to the MG1 firmware last night and found that Odin directly to MG1 did not update the modem (baseband) and also left me with no Wi-Fi. The above steps applied the new modem and did not cause any Wi-Fi issues.
After update, to root just use the CF auto root for Canadian models with Odin then goo manager for custom recovery (twrp).

Somehow I've messed up my recovery and it won't boot anymore. The phone boots up just fine, but not into recovery mode. When I try and go into recovery mode, the blue text "Recovery Booting" shows, sits for about 5-10 seconds, then boots up the regular system (currently the latest cyanogenmod M6 release).
I've tried flashing different recoveries using Odin 3.09 and 1.85, but both of them fail with "Odin Fail (auth)". On the screen it says "odin secure check recovery failed". I've also tried flashing different recoveries through ROM Manager and GooManager, both of which claim they flashed successfully, but still won't boot into recovery. The phone is still rooted, is there any way I can get a working recovery back??
I have a SM-900I (Taiwan version) with the Samsung version of Lollipop 5.0. I'm trying to install a custom recovery for backup purposes. I'm flashing the TWRP2.8.0.1 image using Odin 3.07. It seems I can have the custom recovery installed, but when I restart the phone it goes back to the stock recovery.
In Odin I'm checking only "Reset F. Time", I'm loading the tarball of the recovery as PDA, I start the process and it stops once it has reached "RES OK!!", I unplug the phone and shut it off, start it in recovery mode and the custom recovery is there, but after I launch Android and try to access recovery again I load up the stock recovery.
Solved by using a more up to date recovery image.
Tick off the auto reboot on odin
Then
Flash your recovery
Wait until it's done abt 2 min
Remove your battry and put it back
Go straightly in to the recovery mode by pressing volume up+power and home
U will see your custom recovery
Ps: flash the compatible twrp or phiztouch to your device
Hi,
Problem:
When I try to enter recovery mode, my Note 4 starts immediately into download mode. In the first line it says "Could not do normal boot". It doesn't matter how I try to enter the recovery mode: Neither via cyanogenmod reboot menu, nor via Power+Up+Home.
What I did before:
I've started cyanogenmod update via CyanDelta app. But I think, it didn't started the flashing and already failed to start TWRP...
What I've tried to fix:
Flash TWRP again via ODIN: Does not help
Can anybody help?
Solved it: I've installed the wrong version of TWRP. In my case, I've used the "treltexx"-version instead of "trltexx".

Home-Volume Down-Power = Download Mode
Home-Volume Up - Power = Recovery Mode
You'll need to flash the Bootloader and Recovery. It may start up at this point. If not, then flash the Singapore ROM. You can extract the bootloader and recovery and then make them a .tar .md5 file for Odin. Read about it HERE. I've used it to recover my Canadian SM-N900W8 Note 3. All it would do was vibrate and boot loop. Now I'm 100% back up and running in Lollipop. Only use files for your version of the Note 3.

Singapore has 4 cell providers to choose from.
Or
you can try using Samsung Kies . Tools > Emergency Firmware Recovery. You'll need the serial # under your battery.
Or you just flash this one https://idlekernel.com/twrp/3.0.0-0/twrp-3.0.0-0-hlte.tar.md5 by Odin on the AP slot. If you really have a SM-N9005 like me (No other strange SM-N900* one!) this will work and fix your loop by updating the bricked recovery to the most recent TWRP one. Here is more information I'd recommend to at least read a bit of to at least understand a bit what you are installing by that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2467001
