Hi everyone!
Today I attempted to install a ROM for the first time using ROM Manager. I flashed Clockwork Mod Recovery and then downloaded CyanogenMod and tried to install it (pressed Reboot / Install in ROM Manager). My phone then went into Download/Odin mode. It then didn't do anything for ~10 minutes, and after taking out the battery, the phone still went into Download mode. I got it to boot normally by pressing Home + Power + Volume Down and then pressing cancel when it prompted me to enter download mode. However, every time I attempt to boot into recovery, normally or ClockWork, the phone just goes to download mode. I even tried to do a factory reset, and the phone booted again into Download Mode.
Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Thanks!

Hi, Im having trouble getting my Note III into recovery mode. I just flashed a twrp custom recovery using odin, and now the phone is on auto rebooting non-stop. It shows the following lines, then reboots after a few seconds:
Recovery Booting
Recovering is not Seandriod Enforing
Set Warrant Bit: Recovery
After showing this, the phone restarts and does this again... endlessly...
Ive read about people flashing other custom recovery to fix the problem but i cant seem to get it into downloading mode so i can use odin again.
To get it to stop remove the battery put back in, don't turn on then stick it in download mode.
Check you are using the correct recovery. IE: if jelly bean you have jb recovery, if KitKat you have kk recovery.

Hello,
I´ve got a problem with my Samsung Galaxy S5
The History:
I bought a Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900f from Ebay with a Software Problem. The seller said, he try to flash a Custom Room like Cyanogenmod, he don´t know which)
The flash failed (i don´t know why). Now the S5 have a brick.
I tried so much, but i can´t repair it, pls help me.
The Problem is:
I can not start the Recovery Menü to flash a new Custom room. Always i tried to start the Menü, there is just a text "recovery Booting", then the phone restarts after round about 10 sec.
So even if i tried to start the S5 normally without recovery Menü, it´s just the Samsung Galaxy S5 Logo power by Android, then the phone restarts all the time.
The only thing i can do is start the download mode.
Things i tried:
- Firmware installation about Kies (pass, but still the Same Problem)
-Firmware Installation about Odin (pass, but still the same Problem)
- CF-Autoroot flashing (pass) then i tried to flash a recovery like PhilZ but then when i tried to open the recovery it`s "Recovery is not seandroid enforcing" Set Warranty bit
I tried so many firmwares but still the same Problem. Now it is installed Lollipop 5.0 G900FXXU1BOI3_G900FDBT1BOI1_G900FXXU1BOI3_HOME
There is no chance to repair it over ADB oder Fastboot, cause USB-debugging is disabled
Maybe you can help me and help me to stop spend all my time for this phone, cause im interested to know how i can repair it.

With some of the newer LP based firmwares, twrp 2.8.7.0 klte is the only version that works.....
Other than that, you might find it necessary to odin back to KitKat (flashing a pit file too) and try 'towelrooting' your device.......
BE WARNED.......If you *do* flash a pit file, make sure it's the CORRECT pit for your device.....In some cases, flashing the wrong pit will permanently kill a device.
http://i.imgur.com/rVnFwJM.jpg
So i had try it.
1.)hold on ( volume up and home) then do not release until recovery mode boot
--> The phone always restart no recovery is possible
2.) I try to install on LP the TWRP 2.8.7.0 Still the Same error "recovery is not seandroid enforce" Set Warranty bit: recovery
Before i root the device with CF-Autoroot and it´s pass
3.) I downgrade to 4.4.2 with a full package of Firmware with CSC,BL,AP,CP and a pit file.
The downgrade pass, when the phone starts it says recovery booting in blue script, then the phone restarts. I can´t intstall towelroot, cause the system is not booting, so i´d tried to install CF-Autoroot (pass) and then also the TWRP 2.7.0.0 pass but not booting and then 2.8.0.0.
But still the same "recovery is not seandroid enforce" Set Warranty bit: recovery
If you got a pass on your KK flash, you have a stock recovery......
Have you tried booting into that recovery and wiping cache and factory resetting? It is necessary to do this when downgrading......
http://i.imgur.com/rVnFwJM.jpg
Yes it was a KK stock recovery.
I tried to boot in this recovery, but when the phone starts it says recovery booting in blue script, then the phone restarts after a few seconds.
It´s not possible to wipe cache or make a factory reset, cause the recovery is not booting. That´s my problem. Also when i have flash the stock firmware i tried to go into the recovery but when the phone starts it says recovery booting in blue script, then the phone restarts after a few seconds. ( 4.4.2 and 5.0)
I´can´t flash a custom rom cause the recovery is not booting. I´ve no idea
Are you attempting the 3 button combination from powered off to get into recovery?........
@'detection' does the OP's situation sound familiar?.....
http://i.imgur.com/rVnFwJM.jpg
Very familiar -
https://dl.twrp.me/klte/
Flash TWRP 2.8.7.0 .TAR (Do not unzip) with ODIN 3.10.7 - in Download mode (Volume Down & Home & Power)
It will say "recovery is not seandroid enforce" Set Warranty bit" at the top when you boot into recovery, give it a few seconds and you should see the TWRP blue splash screen, and then recovery should load up
Then flash a custom ROM from TWRP
--
If that all still fails, try flashing the PIT file for the G900F along with a Stock ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2721101&d=1399024091
Extract this one so it is .PIT, and add it to ODINs PIT section
If that still fails, try flashing just the PIT file with ODIN, and then the TWRP 2.8.7.0 with ODIN and see if you can get in that way
Or PIT and TWRP together
Try a combination until you get back in
Also try different versions of TWRP from 3.07 up to 3.10.7

What do you mean with "@'detection' does the OP's situation sound familiar?....."

It sounds familiar because it's happened to many other people recently too, although TWRP usually fixes it
Follow my instructions above
No chance guys,
i´d tried to install all TWRP which i found once in 5.0 and also i tried to install on 4.4.2. But always the same mistake. (recovery is not se.....)
Now i´ve tried to install CWM-Recovery and now there is no mistake like upside. Now in blue "recovery booting" and in yellow set warranty bit: recovery
But the recovery is not booting, the phone always make a restart. I´d also tried to install the recovery without auto-reboot in odin. But no help.
I don´t understand, cause when i flash a Stock Firmware, the recovery menu ,in my opinion, it have to start, but it doesn´t. Maybe i have anexpensive paper weight now
I search the internet to install a Custom room over Odin, but i don´t find any results, so i think it is not possible.
Do you have more ideas? Pls help. Thanks
I have the exact same problem, some are calling it the Black Screen of Death (with the blue led flicker). This is what happened to me:
0) had TWRP + latest 12.1 Cyanogenmod
1) installed the alpha 13 Cyanogenmod, which worked, more-or-less...
2) lost access to TWRP recovery, did not lose access to download
3) tried every single type of black magic from XDA (Kies, pit files, bootloader files, etc)
4) now it turns on, the LED turns blue and slowly, slowly flickers, but the screen is blank. At some point it plays the Samsung boot sound
Any help will be enormously appreciated.
check PM

Ithink you should try re instal original firmware using odin and get ur warranty back then fix it on samsung
I found a trick that seems to help slightly, until an actual solution is published. During a misbehave episode, assuming that something shows up (which is not always the case):
1) press <power + home + vol-down> until the download thing shows up
2) press <up-arrow> so that it actually gets into download mode
3) press <power> until the screen turns off and immediately release (otherwise it will try to reboot); this makes it stay off
4) let it "rest" for a certain period of time (could be 5 minutes or more)
5) back to normal
Did u root your device vai CF auto root? Did it work?

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.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N9005/
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
ODIN 3.09 for ya: http://androidhost.org/PVAIv (using old crap 1.85 is NOT NEEDED)
Hi All,
Got a S5 G900I here that's doing my head in! Stuck in the infamous bootloop at the Samsung logo.
I have been a long time reader of these forums and have prior experience from flashing Samsung phones but this one is driving me mad!
I can put the phone into Download mode without an issue, phone is detected in Odin and I can flash any firmware I try to it (Have tried original 4.4.2 , 5.0 and latest 6.0.1 firmwares from SamMobile). Odin goes through the entire process, reports as "Pass" but then the device goes straight back into the reboot loop and will never fully boot up.
I can also use Odin to push TWRP / CWM / PhilzTouch recoveries, however the device will never boot into the recovery partition. I get the blue "Recovery Booting" message briefly, then the device bootloops again.
Does anyone have any further suggestions to try and get this phone operational again?
I have tried multiple versions of Odin, multiple firmware versions, different computers, different USB cables, different USB ports etc.
I look forward to hearing back from you
Try this :
1. Make sure flash latest recovery with latest ODIN version. Check the official website.
2. Do not let your phone restart after flash recovery with ODIN. Un-check auto reboot on option tab in ODIN. After PASS flash recovery disconnect USB cable then ummm ... I do not know what about your phone .. Mine G900D, I just just pull the battery then I plug it again lol ..: D
3. It should be able to get into recovery after that. If not, it means the recovery type does not match your phone.

Have tried latest stock recovery and latest TWRP recovery using latest ODIN v3.13.1 as well as ODIN v3.09 and v3.10 - No difference whether I uncheck or check auto reboot either
Phone still stuck in a constant reboot loop and never gets to recovery

It is important to turn off the phone right after flash recovery on the download screen. I mean really off rather than reboot. unplug the battery do not turn off with the power button. Because when rebooted, recovery will automatically return to stock .. so the recovery you just installed will be erased again. if stock recovery inside is broken you will get bootloop. if it is done and still can not enter recovery .. huum .. I am afraid if it's a hardware problem .. because it's easier to find a suitable recovery than its firmware. if recovery can not be in flash .... it's a long way to go ..
By the way, sorry for ask .. you release the power button when it says "recovery booting" with blue text.. right ..? while continuing to hold the volume up..?

Thanks for the quick reply.
Yes when I am booting into recovery mode and can see the blue text "Recovery Booting" in the corner of the screen I let go of the power button - device still boot loops.
Have flashed recovery then removed battery - still cannot get it into recovery.
I have seen some Samsungs have hardware issues with their NAND chips but in these cases there are a lot of errors relating to NAND displayed on the screen when I've seen it be a hardware issue. None of these appear on this phone - convinced it has something to do with software.
I found these threads - exactly the same issue as me, and at the end it says they fixed it by flashing a specific bootloader however I have a G900I and the phone in this thread was a G900F
