Hi guys,
some weeks ago I upgraded my recovery from 3.0.1 to last version (3.0.2-0).
I made the upgrade by the official App (downloaded from Play store). No problem at the first look. But some day ago I tried to made an upgrade to my custom rom AryaMod 8.1 to 8.3) and during the flash the device has been rebooted and the upgrade of the rom has failed. The device is ok and all functional. I have thought at an error. Not important in this case.
But to day I have made a good backup of all my data and (after a full wipe of Dalvik, Cache, Data and System) I re tried an change of custom rom with a new one Rom (DarkWolf_FW Galaxy S7 Edge Port][V2]) on my device.
The some result as the previous upgrade. The device has been rebooted after some second during the flash of the rom. At the device restart no OS or Data (locked on "Note 3" startup logo) but this is normal after a full wipe.
Furtunaly I restored my backup (made by recovery) and everything is back to normal situation before the wipe.
My question is... Some guy have found a similar problem with the new release of the recovery TWRP 3.0.2-0?
My device is a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (Qualcom international)
I have had the same issue with some roms.
Touchwiz roms often fail to update and the recovery boots into recovery again.
No errors, just random reboot at initiating the installation.
CM13 and latest AOSP roms seem to flash without any issue.
Try going back to 2.8.7.X it will work.
Too bad you will loose the theme and glossiness of TWRP3

Also please backup your data on your computer if your partitions are f2fs while downgrading.
You cannot use twrp 3 for aroma zip.

hi!
yesterday i followed these instructions to flash philz touch 5 (cwm base version: v6.0.3.7) onto a fresh galaxy s4 using odin and then rooted it by installing the two zip files in recovery mode. this worked really well. after using my phone for a while, i really missed the pure android experience and wanted to flash a custom rom from aokp. so i made these steps
download custom rom for i9506 (unified version)
make a nandroid backup of the original rom
wipe data/factory reset -> clean to install a new rom
install zip from sdcard -> select the previously downloaded custom rom
unfortunately i immediately got an error that my phone is not supported by this rom, since it is the ks01lte and not a jflte or jflte***. first i thought that's unpleasant but not a real problem since i have a nandroid backup. so i made a normal factory reset and restored the backup i made before. after it was successfully finished, i rebootet the phone. but since then i don't get passed the white samsung lettering after the blueish circle animation.
thanks for any help or tiny hint.
hi!
fixed it by my self. in case some one runs into the same problem:
i flashed the correct original firmware from here with odin. after that it took a while for the first boot and i had constant force closes. after a full wipe in the original recovery everything was fine again. then i rootet it again. now i've to find another custom rom which actually supports my model and delivers the pure android experience without that touchwiz cr...
thanks, kopi
So I've tried installing a custom lollipop rom for my Samsung Galaxy Note 3, the v23 of the Echoe rom. I followed the instructions, but at the end of the process I couldn't reboot, the phone stays in boot for 30 minutes (as longs as I could stand watching it) and showing the Galaxy Note 3 logo.
Thankfully I made a backup so I can get my old version back any time, but I would still like to flash this rom. Back then I could install echoe kit kat version without a problem and loved it.
So my process:
- I use TWRP recovery
- Boot into recovery, wipe cache, dalvik cache, system, data
- Install echoe rom downloaded here: echoerom.com/echoe-roms/n3-n9005/
- Reboot into system
- Samsung logo stays, nothing happens
I tried a lot of things, rebooting, recovering the earlier version, or only its EFS data, but to be honest I'm not an expert when it comes to troubleshooting a faulty flashing, I've done it a lot of times and never had a problem like this before. Ofcourse I've swept through the net, but couldn't find an answer (that would've worked).
Hello all.
I have a Galaxy S5 running cyanogen 13 ( cm-13.0-20161013-SNAPSHOT-ZNH5YAO21L-klte.zip ). Last night I updated it with the cyanogen tool, as usual, thinking that I was just getting a more updated version of cyanogen 13, but apparently I got it working with android 7.1.
As gapps were not working, I downloaded both 7.1 gapps, and cm-13 to try to install gapps or comeback to cm-13 if it did not work.
The problem is that I had no chance to test it. I rebooted the phone with the option "recovery reboot" and after it turned off it showed something like "no command", then it got to the first screen (recovey booting... in blue, samsung galaxy s5 white logo...) and freezed there.
I've tried every key combination and it does change nothing. I've read in another forum an user having the same issue so I advice you to not install this update. At least not from CM13. I will update when I get more details from the other users or if one of us success while trying to unbrick.
I suggest you to install twrp with Odin so you are sure that you have working recovery. Then backup what left of this not working ROM and download cm 13 and gapps for it. Then wipe system partition and install those two. By some chance you will end up with working ROM. If it works, I suggest you to backup all data with titanium backup and clean flash cm 13 to be sure that you got rid of all the issues... If cm 13 doesn't boot also wipe data and start on new.
I hope it helps you

Hello!
Thank you very much, as I found the problem was the recovery I've re installed TRWP. CM14 was replacing it each time I installed it by ODIN so i had to start it just directly after flashing it (without letting the phone boot) and i've installed last CM14 klte file and 7.1 GAPPs
Now all is working , I hope it can help others with the same problem
Thank you!
I have a systemless-rooted SM950FD model with AQDG firmware/baseband, with TWRP.
Before anything took place I backed up with TWRP 3.1.0 the essentials: boot, recovery, system, data, baseband & efs.
Wanting to update to the latest AQH3 firmware without losing any data, I used the 'TWRP-flashable' firmware provided by Renovate here http://www.renovate-themes.de/firmware.html
This zip claims to update bootloader, modem and TWRP.
The update seemed to go well, but when I rebooted I the phone was stuck on Galaxy S8 logo. TWRP disappeared, as did any other recovery, so I had to flash TWRP from ODIN (at which point I updated to latest TWRP version, 3.1.1-2)
Now back on TWRP, I am trying to restore a bootable system from my backup, but no combination has worked for me so far. I always do a quasi-full wipe (system, caches, data) and restore boot/system/data/baseband/efs (with minor variations between the 5). So far nothing has succeeded in booting the phone, it always gets stuck at the Galaxy S8 screen.
At this point I could totally install a stock-like rom which will fast-forward me to the latest version, but since my goal was to keep my original stock rom without losing sms/apps, I would at least need to boot up once in my original backed up state.
Any ideas?
Thank you very much,
Batman Rom Is very close to stock.
I would say flash that one. In fact it's better than stock.
