Hi there,
I have just tried to flash cyanogenmod onto my note 3 and must have done something incorrectly. Now whenever I power on the phone it goes straigt to recovery mode after a 3 line message about seandroid not enforcing. I can also boot the phone into download mode. I am using twrp recovery and whenever I try to flash the cyanogen zip file it fails saying e: unable to mount '/usbstorage'. before I orignally tryed to put cm on I created a backup with twrp and I have restored this, and this is the stage I am at now.
I am really stuck now and need some help please.
Thank you
You installing ROM from an external device, like a OTG drive or something?

Hi everyone,
I've managed to install DangerSPL on my 32B Magic via Clockwork Recovery - however, Clockwork Recovery keeps vanishing after each reboot and the standard recovery takes its place... what's with that?
It is suppose to do this? I thought it was suppose to replace the stock Android one permanently?
How do I go about making the install stick?
Thanks!
(My first time rooting, updating etc Android)
Cheers for all the support and help!
Nate.
PS>
When it boots back into Android System Recovery <2e>
It says at the bottom :
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/command
In /system/recovery.img there is a full copy of everything that is loaded on the recovery partition. This file is automatically flashed onto the recovery partition every time you shut down. That means two things: 1. Any changes you make directly to the recovery partition gets blown away on reboot and 2. If you want to change the recovery partition you're probably better off just sticking the image in /system/recovery.img and rebooting.
So to fix this problem you have to rename the custom recovery file to:
recovery.img
then make sure it's on /system/recovery.img.
This will make sure that you have the custom recovery on every boot.
NB: The info is borrowed and modified a little.

Hi,
I've flashed a kernel for multi boot. It says it was successfully.
After I hit reboot, my SGS 4 turned off. When I try to boot, it stocks at the Samsung logo.
I can't even go to recovery or download mode.
'Kernel is not seandroid enforcing'
I got a Nandroid back-up on the external SD and on my PC.
Is there a way to go to recovery or download mode?
Then I can install STOCK or restore the back-up.
okay so after rooting my n9005 i decided to flash twrp using odin . i then used rom manager to reboot to recovery . my phone is now stuck in a constant boot loop it atempts to boot into recovery then displays the samsung note 3 flash screen and displays the text
recovery booting...
recovery is not seandroid enforcing
set warranty bit: recovery
this fails then attempts to do it again.
i cant access download mode using home+vol down+power or boot the phone normally. pc doesnt seem to recognise anything
i tried everything without the micro sd inserted with the same results
ive pulled the battery to save what power i have left but im out of ideas

Pull the battery out then put back in the hold power down home that will get you into download mode again then install philz recovery cmw make sure it's jb or kk what ever firmware you have
You need to keep trying to access dl mode. It will eventually work. Theres no way you could have erased that feature. Hold vol down and home. Then push and hold power. Make sure the device is off when you do so. I imagine you flashed the wrong recovery which would be why your device is not booting into recovery. Which version of android are you on and which recovery version you flash

Thanks guys I've been away for a while but pulling the battery then trying to access dl mode worked after a few trys so I re-flashed the 4.4.2 stock UK firmware and it solved my issue. I'm now going to try and find the correct recovery.
Thanks for your help guys I really thought I had got myself stuck there
Hi guys
I have a big problem with my note 3 hlte that i have never heard off... I run cyanogenmod 12 and i noticed when i flashed it that cwm recovery went back to stock recovery so i used app called Flashify and i "flashed" cwm that flashfy offerd me.
Afther that it offerd me to reboot into recovery witch i selected and now my phone is stuck in recovery boot loop....
It doesnt want to boot into recovery and i cant boot it normaly or download mode because its stuck in loop..
i tried removeing battery, draining power, leaving it for some time but every time when i return the battery and try to turn it on, its stuck..
very hard to explain, if you want i can record and upload it
(i would usualy flash a cwm via odin but i was to lazy to turn on my pc )
sorry for some gramatical mistakes
found solution
Volume down + home and pluging in usb automaticly boots into download mode
Find the correct cwn/twrp for your phone model & bootloader(4.3/4.4). Flash with odin.
The recovery corrupted, no big deal.

Hi,
I was flashing twrp with flashify when I just rebooted in recovery and since that moment my phone is stuch on an infinite bootloop showing me the:
"Recovery booting (recovery is not seandroid enforcing...)"
I'm plugging off the battery for some hours, but when plugged in nothing changed.
My phone has the usb port broken, so I can use it only to charge the battery, but no pc will recognize it.
Since the fact that I can't access download mode, or recovery mode to restore a nandroid backup, It's insane to buy a usb port to change it on the phone and try to link to a pc?
I mean, is there a way to access download mode?
Does JIG usb work in this situation of hard brick?
Any advice?
Thanks for answering.

You need a working usb to flash a custom recovery or an offical fw. I thought flashify needs root access to work?. Or if you already have root, you could adb to flash twrp but it's too late now.
Try getting into download mode. When it asks to proceed or cancel, choose cancel. Some people are lucky that the phone boot into system again but they need to fix the broken recovery later.

After 2 months of battery out, finally I got download mode to work, and pressing cancel my phone started.
Thanks.
But now it seems that there is no custom recovery installed, so when i go in custom recovery, the loop starts again.
How may I install again a custom recovery, knowing that:
1) I can't connect to pc, cm 12.1 has a bug, no pc recognizes my phone;
2) rom manager doesn't install any custom recovery on my phone;
3) flashify made my phone in boot loop, and I can't understand what I was wrong 2 months ago.
Thank you, man.
See your other post man .
Flash the tar version of TWRP using Odin. If there is no tar version, you can use Cygwin to convert an img file to a tar file.
