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
greetz, fred

thank you

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.

so there is nothing else I have to do before flashing the recovery?
what boxes should be checkmarked in odin

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.

[Q] Note 3 could not do normal boot error

Hi,
My Note 3 is not able to reboot properly after i flashed the file n900s-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.7-kk(0125) using ODIN.
An hour back i had successfully used CF Auto root and all was working well. Wanting to flash a custom ROM i tried putting in CWM and now have this issue.
I have taken out the battery and tried rebooting but stuck at the same Download mode. The screen reads like this
Please advise what needs to be done.
Thanks
Resolution: I resolved this by manually going into download mode and using cancel option. Then it started fine. But does that mean i did not successfully install CWM? Tried going into recovery but it goes back to download mode.

Recovery is up volume, home and power. You shouldn't get dl mode if you hold these buttons...
If you have no recovery installed then it will just try to boot....
Make sure you are using the correct recovery and then try flashing again...

Yes happened to me a while back You cannot go into recovery just download mode and when you restart from dl mode then it works. Only thing you can do to fix that is flash recovery.tar again through odin to get your recovery working again. it doesnt effect your system though. System will keep working.
Edit : Use TWRP this and i just read the title of recovery N900s do you have a different device not n9005 ???
Because for N9005 international version it should say hlte, hltexx or n9005

I fixed the issue by flashing Philz CWM recovery. After that i flashed a X Note ROM and all good now. Thanks for the help guys.

[Q] SM-T537R4 Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 will not load! Only has download and stock recovery

Rooted the device with Odin. But couldn't for the life of me find a recovery for it. Flash a ton through Odin then final got a TWRP recovery to work.. When I wiped everything I was instructed to I tried to flash the rom I found (Bliss) I got a could not mount preload error.. And another error I can't recall. Then it just kept looping. So I ran the root file through Odin again.. And it now just boots straight to the Samsun logo and sits there until you hold power vol down (or up) and home till it switches to download or recovery. The TWRP is gone somehow and its stock again.
Hope this isn't confusing... I'll answer any questions and try any suggestion... PLEASE HELP

As far as I know there aren't any custom recoveries or roms working for your model number, so that's why nothing is working properly. Your only solution would appear to be to download the stock firmware and flash back to stock with Odin.

Can't boot TWRP/CWM (g530h)

Hello,
First of all, I'm pretty new to all of these, even new to smartphone itself, so please pardon any of my misunderstanding.
Recently I've rooted my G530h, baseband number: G530HXCU1AOA2 using Kingo ROOT. The root went well I assumed since I can use SuperU and access root-only apps.
Then I proceeded to install a custom recovery for my phone, first I tried using TWRP (v2.8.7.0), flashing with Odin through download mode. After it was done, Odin showed that it was success, my phone restarted and went into a normal boot. I then turned off my phone and try to get into recovery mode (Vol Up, Home and Power), but instead my phone went into Download mode but this time straight into the Downloading scene without going through the warning one. I couldn't turn off my phone, I had to hold down Vol Down, Home and Power, the phone went into the warning scene for Download mode again, only by pressing cancel would I be able to boot normally again.
The same thing happened when I tried installing CWM.
Please help, if there is something I'm doing wrong... I can't get into the recovery mode which I tend to use for installing a custom ROM. I've also tried flashing my original stock, the stock recovery came back and worked fine, but the custom ones still have the same problem.
Thank you for your time.

I've had trouble finding the same issue I have, If there is a thread can you link it to me?

Post the Odin log so XDA members can see the Odin error?
What ROM are you trying to flash?
Have you tried using different USB cables and USB ports?
