did you enable usb debugging ? and maybe try to uncheck the auto reboot at odin and after you flash and pass , just removed your battery a while then plug it again then turn it on...
i use the same file for root but it's work and for some user it's cause bootloop....
You don't need USB debugging enabled for CF AR

OP - Try this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/help/root-sm-g900h-android-5-0-t3291620
I enable usb debugging. I also tried to flash with auto reboot unchecked, but whenever i boot it to recovery mode i always end up stuck in samsung logo with powered by android under it.
USB Debugging is only for when you are booted into Android, not for download mode
I'll try the link that you sent me. Thanks for the reply ?

Before I started rooting, I tried flashing cwm custom recovery but no luck. I can't boot to stock recovery. I waited for 30sec but it just stay in samsung logo with powered by android under it. Please help..
Why you trying to boot into stock recovery?
Flash a stock ROM again, then follow the instructions on the link I posted

I disable USB debugging then tried flashing TWRP recovery via Odin. After flashing, I remove the battery then boot into the recovery and waited for 30 seconds but the phone is still stuck with the samsung logo. I will try to clean flash stock recovery and try flashing again the custom recovery.

I successfully flashed CWM recovery but the problem is, the recovery can't detect my storage. Internal nor external. What seems to be the problem this time? :crying:
You flashed CWM instead of TWRP like the link I posted told you to do

Somehow, i've managed to root it using CWM recovery. What's the difference though?
TWRP is much more powerful

after I had succesfully rooted my phone, I wanted to install a custom rom.
I am sure I did something wrong ofcource otherwise I wouldn't be here.
#1 Battery in
#2 power on
#3 vibrate
#4 screen on RECOVERY BOOTING
Recovery is NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Set Warrenty Bit : recovery
Samsung
GALAXY Note3
SM-N9005
#5 screen off--> reboot -->goto #3
how to brake in the loop so I can use odin ( or whatever ) to install (at least) a normal boot again?
Which custom recovery did you flashed Twrp or Cwm?

You installed a 4.3 recovery on a 4.4 phone.
Most likely you downloaded the TWRP on the main page and did not download the latest 4.4 compatible one.
Please flash this in Download Mode: http://techerrata.com/bigbiff/hlte-recovery.img.tar
To get into Download Mode, remove the battery, wait a few minutes then put it back, Hold the Download Mode Combination then it would boot directly into Download Mode.
hey nicho, thank you very much
so that was the trick. REMOVE THE BATTERY --> PRESS THE DOWNLOAD KEYS AND HOLD THEM --> THEN ENTER THE BATTERY BACK.
it costed me the whole day yesterday searching for a solution.
at least now I can continue to install a new rom
Thanks man
TWRP
during twrp it told me, there was a newer one. 2.x.x.9
so stupid me, if I had sticked to the plan, nothing would happend.
I used twrp b4 some days ago, for my samsung note 10.1 (2014) without trubbles,
I guess, I overread something
but I'm happy it is all fixed now.
thx for show ur interest

Solution To Loop SM-N900P
I am new to XDA and have only been with android for 6 months but i figure this will help new comers to this issue. Power+Volume Down+Home at the same time to enter download mode. Flash CWM via ODIN. This should work to fix the loop. I found out the hard way but it only took me an hour. I am not sure if this will work if you have not already rooted your phone but it should (since this is the major step in rooting). I believe i deleted my CWM file (accidentally) when i was trying to clear space for my recovery with ROM Manager. Be sure to download the Samsung drivers if you had not already done so during the rooting process.
Hope this helps.
Gives me same error message
But after that it boots into recovery.
Should I proceed installing custom rom or is there anything else to be taken care of
Thanks!
Thank you very much,you save me a lot of trouble.

Based on my experience, using rom manager to flash recovery always results in a problem. I suggest you use odin to flash this in download mode.
Btw, 4.4.2 is Kitkat

should I root my phone first using cf-root. Then flash the cwm recovery. What happens if I get stuck in a bootloop after flashing the recovery

The way I did this is, first install the cwm recovery then flash cf-root after. You can always use odin to flash back the original firmware.

Just make sure reactivation lock is off.
When you first start odin, F.Reset Time and Auto Reboot are ticked off so let them be and make sure only those are checked and nothing else.
You probably know this but just to make sure, load the recovery on the AP slot before hitting start.

Hi XDA,
Today I wanted to flash a new rom, but it didn't work, it just do the boot animation until infinite and nothing happens..
I tried flashing two roms by recovery: Carbon for Galaxy S4 and Dirty Unicorns Rom for Galaxy S4.
Both are stuck at boot animation screen.
What can I do? Please help me
My Phone: Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505 Black Edition (from Romania)
Thanks.
Have a nice day.
I am using GT-I9500, but i think your recovery may have some things wrong.
Have you tried to flash the TWRP again through Odin ? May be that will work.

That's the reason it's failing.
Only use the latest TWRP recovery. The rest is outdated.
99% of Odin errors are resolved by the following:
- Different usb port
- Different usb cable.

I thought rooting was mandatory in order to flash custom recovery?....

Recovery comes after rooting IIRC (I rooted mine ~1 year ago so it's a bit fuzzy) so if your rooting was successful then a custom recovery flash should be possible (TWRP recommended)

Stock ROM via Odin would be the safest route IMO, make sure you use the correct stock ROM for your device (there are numerous variations)

You have to flash the uninstaller. But for that you need a custom recovery.

No. You need to put your phone into download mode and use Odin to flash it. You can either flash a custom recovery with Odin and use said recovery to flash the xposed uninstaller zip or you can flash a new ROM altogether.
There's no other way to recover from this since your phone doesn't boot.

sorry man, I tried all yesterday but I didn't have success, can you please link a YouTube video that explains how to do it? or do you know how to do it?
please man, I want that phone back.. thanks..
I suggest starting over by flashing the stock rom with Odin, then use Odin to flash twrp, and then use twrp to flash the zip files.
