flashing stock recovery on custom rom - help required - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i want to flash stock recovery on custom ROM, cloudy stock to be exact.
i pulled the stock recovery of D800 latest ROM, than flashed cloudy, but after i flash stock recovery, doing a wipe either from power button or from phone menu [backup/reset] it stuck at lg logo or white reset screen when you do recovery from power button.
though the wipe finishes, but phone doesn't get rebooted as normally it should.
[for people who are wondering why]
i want my phone to wipe everything when i do hard reset either manually or remote,
or if you know a way for twrp to do that let me know.
thanks

[Q] Please help! Stuck on boot screen!

I attempted to flash a Liquid Smooth rom yesterday. I rebooted into the bootloader, and chose recovery mode. I wiped all cache, then installed the zip. I followed this by installing the gapps zip immediately, which I think I shouldn't have done.
When I rebooted it, it was stuck on the liquid smooth screen for a while, I know this is normal, but when it sat there for an hour and fifteen minutes I knew something was wrong. If I hold down both volume keys and the power button I can reboot into the bootloader again, but when I now choose recovery mode, it gets stuck on the google load screen.
Can anybody help me out?

Plug the N7 into your PC before you boot into the bootloader.
You were correct to flash gapps immediately after flashing the ROM. Maybe the ROM didn't flash correctly because you only wiped caches. If you are coming from a different ROM you will need to do a factory reset. If you didn't back up your apps and don't have a nandroid, then you might want to wipe caches, format system, and reflash the previous ROM and try to boot in and backup your apps. Might not work but worth a shot if you got stuck where you are now with no app backups.

Wow, that didn't even cross my mind, I did this and I've got the rom up and running now. Thanks a lot.

Soft bricked my phone, tried stock fw and it's still stuck

I was on a coolboyz GE4.3 rom and flashed faux kernel and the device wouldnt boot even to recovery. I flashed a stock samsung firmware via odin and now it boots all the way to the samsung logo including boot animation but will not boot from there. I think I may have flashed a TW kernel on a 4.3 GE base..
I can't boot to my recovery, should I flash one via odin?
Is there anything I can do?

well a strange issue here may be you can try rooting the device if it goes to download mode and then flash philz recovery and see if it goes to recovery from there you can wipe cache / dalvik and reset the device

MF3 CWM not overwriting TWRP

I have a rooted MF3 to which I flashed CWM, but in seeing that it wouldn't let me do anything besides wipe data/factory reset I flashed TWRP. When I booted into recovery on TWRP I would get stuck with it saying "DOWNLOADING" and would bootloop back into TWRP recovery unless I restarted by hitting vol down + power + home button, then hitting cancel. Once I was able to get it to boot normal I figured I would reflash CWM, but once I flashed CWM and attempted to boot into recovery it would always boot into the stuck TWRP recovery. I am under the impression that since there is no stock rom I can flash, if I even had a means to flash, to get back to the stock recovery.
So my question is does anybody have an idea of how I might get CWM to properly flash over TWRP, since flashing with rom manager doesn't seem to work.
You shouldn't be trying to flash any recoveries what so ever considering you have a stock mf3 firmware. You definitely don't want to cause more damage.

A best buy Samsung experience booth would be your best bet if you need to go to stock, they can reflash mf3 firmware

As said, the samsung booth at best buy is your only choice right now. mf3 phones are bootlocked.. flashing recovies = killed phone (unless the before mentioned booth can help you out).

i9505 doens´t boot after flashing stock firmware

Hello
I was trying to update my friend´s i9505 to the latest AntaresOne CM12 build, but forgot to flash gapps, and since i coulnd´t for some reason enter CWM (the phone just reboots), i had to flash stock firmware over again so i could start over.
But now the phone isn´t booting even on stock firmware. That usually did the trick.
The wierd thing is that Phils Touch Recovery was working before, but ever since i used Triangle Away to reset binary counter, the recovery won´t boot up anymore.
The only way that i could get into Phils Recovery was to install the TWRP recovery installer, and throught the app i would tell it to flash, and it would reboot into Phils Recovery
Now since system isn´t booting, i can´t install and use the TWRP installer to reboot into recovery mode for me.
Tried to flash stock recovery, the same thing happens: the phone just black screens, vibrates and reboots.
Any ideas of why this might be happening?
Go to stock recovery if you can and wipe data/factory reset. Install stock ROM then.
@guguts
As clearly wrote in 1st post of my thread, you need to do "format /system" before installing ROM's builds starting from 26/11 one and latest ones, including 3/12 and the ones that will come in the future.
I strongly suggest you to take a look again at installation instructions, but this time carefully.
If you need anything else, write directly in its Q&A thread (you can find it in this section) where surely you can be helped more and better

Flash a custom recovery with Odin. Uncheck auto-reboot before flashing.
Then boot into the recovery using the botton combo. Keep holding it as long as it takes to enter recovery.
Hey guys, i managed to work it out.
It was probably a loose vol up or home button, because i didn´t do anything but a few moments later i tried to enter stock recovery and it went fine.
The issue was not with the custom rom (which by the way is great, my friend says its running smooth).
The issue happened because i forgot to do i data wipe after installing the rom and prior to installing the stock rom.
So the stock ROM was trying to load using lollipop data and cache, and thats why it got stuck in the samsung logo.
As soon as i managed to enter stock recovery again, and made a data wipe, the stock room booted fine.
So i tried again, but this time didn´t forget to flash gapps, and even better, now Phils Recovery is booting up normally (go figure...)
So i formated /system and /data, flashed AntaresOne ROM and gapps, and everything went fine.
Just posting here in case anyone in the future goes througyht the same hassle.
Thank you so much for your work Antares.
Its people like you, quarx and pawtip (and many others top developers) that makes this community great.

Before dload method, you need to flash stock boot img and stock recovery img. Then use dload method. (Use that same stock ROM)
After that you will in bootloop. When booting, press and hold vol up 3 seconds. On e-recovery, press shutdown.
Then press power and vol up for stock recovery. Do factory reset. If need do the factory reset 2/3 times.
Now you will be on stock.
Then you need to unlock bootloader, flash miticulus twrp v4. Dump stock boot+ system img. Do factory reset. Flash custom ROM lineage 13/14 miticulus. Reboot recovery, format data.
