Did you follow a guide, or just decide to flash a file blindly?

I loosely followed a guide but I have done this before on my old s5 and it worked fine.

[Q] How can I flash Cyanogen?

I have an S4 running 4.2.2 and it's currently rooted. But the root does not allow me to have a custom recovery. I want to be able to flash Cyanogen, but I'm not able to at the current time. What is your best idea of what I should do?

Then reread the OP and make sure you do exactly what it states.
Take your time and just make sure to follow each step.
MF3 can be rooted and de bloated but has no real custom recovery.
Safe strap only allows one on 4.3 to flash 4.2 2 roms.

I'm on 4.2.2 and I followed all the instructions very carefully, but whenever I try to load my slot with the Google edition ROM (4.2.2) the phone goes into a continuous boot loop. I have no idea what is wrong and I can't find a solution anywhere.

make sure you partition your slot big enough...try 2 and 1.5 for data...
I did this and it still didn't work. Where is the best guide on how to exactly flash a ROM? I've been following a video guide on it, but it doesn't work.

You are probably using the wrong GE ROM... Only certain ones work. Check the OP of the SS QA thread.

Pick a smaller rom to start...gpe 280 mb...make sure you flash the mf3 module zip after the rom flashes...look in deadly venom 8.2 he has all the links. .his rom is awesome too..its 1.1 gb try that too

I know its hard to guide you since you dont see too many guides for your specific phone. All i know is that I have an AT&T phone on Aio.
I follow this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52289782
I Odin full nb1 since i was stuck on download mode.
Then I downgraded to mk2
Once you are on mk2 you saferoot
Then install safestrap.
Unfortunally we can not flash custom roms since the bootloader is locked. We can only flash TW roms.

You can't have KitKat on your version until the official one is released because you can't flash our bootloader

He's already on the same boat, his doesn't work with Loki so he only gets Safestrap and doesn't even get 4.4.2 or anything.

There is no direct root method for 4.4. So, you have to follow Deadly Venom Kitkat Magic Tool.
Using the tool, you would first partial downgrade to MK2, root using saferoot and install safestrap 3.72 (the only working recovery for us). Using the remain steps in the tool, you should be able to flash any ROM of your choice from All things ATT thread

Need help installing recovery

Hi guys,
I'm trying to install Philz on my Canadian Note 3 but I'm having problems. I used the instructions on this thread and everything went ok, however when I rebooted I got "recovery is not seandroid enforcing".
So I tried using Odin3 v3.09 and "philz_touch_6.08.9-hltecan.tar.md5", it went ok. But when I reboot into recovery the same thing happen.
So I tried philz_touch_6.12.8 and Odin 1.85, but they all do the same. Also installed Kies for the canadian version to update the drivers and still the same.
Any ideas?
Fix is here. You need the right version for the version of Android that you are running.

Correct me if I am wrong, but due to the locked bootloader on the N900A, you cannot have TWRP. You only have Safestrap.
