I had the same exact problem. Flashing CWM Recovery got me out of that nasty screen. You don't need to use the recovery - the mere act of installing it seems to have done the trick for me.
In the end I couldn't root but I am glad my phone works.

Andy Ibanez, I love you man! I thought i was in deep muck when i came across your solution. Thank you once again!
It sounds like you had a failed i.e. partial write and /or partition corruption.
Flashing a custom recovery is an expedient fix, but you may still have corrupt partitions that can cause you problems later. You should find the appropriate PIT (partition information) file to match your current firmware and flash that to assure a stable system.
Hey there
I had the same problem. The screen showed the ' firmware issue' message.
I used the odin 3.09 to flash the CF Root again and this time it worked properly.
i didn't loose any files and the root works perfectly

Phone still stuck on android boot logo after flashing stock Rom.
Same here problem is still there, ive tried different region stock roms but same thing i can only boot to download mode Only. Also after odin finish flashing the firmware and it says pass, the phone only reboot to the android logo, no recovery option come up showing clearing cache or anything.
Did you try using odin to load a custom recovery like TWRP?

as i mentioned the subject flashing stock rom or flashing any other recovery won't work at alll, it is a rare case. flashing stock rom or flasing recovery using odin are completely working fine as success rate of 100%, but the phone doesn't boot. flashing process happens working fine , while i searched regarding the issue i found out that's an issue with EMMC some times the chip needs to be replaced by warranty but in my case knox tripped into 1. in order to get the warranty i need to i should reset the knox into 0. I've find a thread to reset knox into 0 unfortunately on exynos variant SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 3 only .
needs
1.please let me know if some one knows the thread to fix emmc bug without replacing the chip
2.please let me know if some one knows the thread to fix the knox back into 0 using odin or any other method other than triangle away because the phone doesn't boot up and it doesn't boot into recovery mode only goes to download mode
please help pleas please pleaase
tons of thanx in advance :victory:

There is no way as of now to reset knox counter on note 4....maybe in future.
Extremely unlucky you got that rare bug. I thought it didn't exist anymore
PS: at some places they still offer hardware warranty despite tripping knox..you might wanna try your luck.
gotta try for that

Refer to the 2 posts above this one.
Try taking it to the service center and hope that they fix it under warranty. That's your best bet if nothing else is working.
Solved: Note 4 not entering Recovery mode.

Remove Battery and simcard and memory card then insert battery and PRESS VOLUME UP BUTTON THEN HOME BUTTON THEN POWER UNTIL LOGO APPEARS AND LET GO. THIS WORKED FOR ME TODAY.

I think you wrong with Recovery of wrong android version.
Try to fix with correct android version recovery. For example. ,if your phone is Android 4.3, if you used Android version 4.4.2 or something else, your device can not boot to recovery mode. Or may be wrong with Model Number
i have exactly the same issue flash with odin and pass but still bootloop cant boot to recovery either
my bootloader is n916k but sticker model at the back n910c i flash both n910c and n916k and pass odin flash still bootloopp
I recently rooted my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Smn910H
using ODIN. and I installed Chainfire 3d (I didn't know that it wasn't meant for later android version)
And I`m trying to fixing it
I tried using the `adb and cmd` thing but when I typed `adb shell` it says, there are no device or something
Yes i have all of the necessary usb drivers
No I think i don't remember ever turning my usb debugging on
Yes I know how to turn it on, but I can't because i'm stuck in booting loop
So I tried to downloading note 4 firmware from Sammobile And i'm planing to put it using odin. just like when i rooted my phone
And my questions are "
1. Am i doing it right ?
2. If not, what should I really do ?
Please, i need to get it done right away
And i'm sorry if i not respond to your help because i have to get back to my school. which has dormitories.
the internet in dorms are very slow.
Same happened with me
Just flash custom recovery with odin this flash supers zip with it and the phone will be rooted
Hey Guys,
I hardbricked my phone by flashing 5.0 with flashfire...
Can someone help me, and give me a clear instruction what to do?
I can´t boot it; Recovery/Download Mode doesnt work.
In my device manager it only shows " QHSUSB_BULK ".
The firmware i flashed: usp-forum.de/downloads.php?do=file&id=2431
Thank you

Just lol. Definitely not Samsung's fault. The 9005 is hard to brick, only user error is the culprit.

User needs to post information if any progress is to be made.
Download mode ??
Recovery mode ??
Nandroid backup ??
NO roms on here say use Flashfire do they ??
i've flashed devices before, htc, lg and other brand, but samsung are the hardest one to understand lol...
btw no download mode, there is no recovery, no backups..just dead phone..my windows 7 reads the phone in device manager like: qhsusb_bulk...cant find any drivers for that...cant pass in odin too..i tried debrick.img method, nothing worked so far..last i was using twrp with 5.0.wont..i think its eMMC...
If the following approach works, un-brickable Note3 can be claimed.

Long story short,I tried to download grade my brothers s7 edge from stock nougat to stock marshmellow. Used odin to flash the bl,ap,cplease and csc but it was just failed attempt after failed attempt. Yes drivers were installed and reinstalled multiple times
Then I read try flashing without bl and here I am...recovery won't boot ip
I have been out of the xda for awhile ever since the galaxy s2.
I tried googling "recovery booting flashing" but couldn't find any info, but my best guess is that the it's gone somehow.
Any ideas on how to fix before I get a replacement? Yes I can get into download mode.

I'm no expert but I would try the latest nougat to see if it boots and go from there.
