Hi,
I have S4 SGH-I337 (AT&T) Today I did power off my mobile then when I was power on it again it automatically boots into recovery mode.
It's not even booting in download mode or bypassing recovery mode. I have also tried to update manually by applying update from external storage but it also not worked.
All Is I can go into stock recovery mode.
My phone is currently on 5.0.1 OC4
Looking forward for help.
Thanks.

After flashing some ROM, I am having trouble because the phone is stuck in Samsung Galaxy IV logo.
First couple times I was able to boot to twrp and do a format, wipe, flash, then davik wipe. The problem is that I was able to restart and set up and update etc but if i restart the phone, it would stuck at boot logo.
So I flashed it again and installed GooManager and installed twrp again, tried to restart and it would just stuck at Samsung boot logo, I can't even get into recovery mode.
I tried using Odin and flash cwm but it would not boot into recovery mode.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
I'll try to flash it with stock ROM with ODIN going into download mode, but somehow I don't think that will work.
I'm using Canadian Rogers Galaxy S4 SGH-I337M
Please let me know if there is anything I can do
Boot to download mode (volume down+ home during boot) and Odin to stock MDJ firmware would be my suggestion. Give it a boot and then factory reset. If hangs on first boot, go into recovery (volume up+ home during boot) and factory reset via recovery. After phone boots install triangle away, reset counter, and then do the OTA update.
Finally got around to updating to the MG1 firmware last night and found that Odin directly to MG1 did not update the modem (baseband) and also left me with no Wi-Fi. The above steps applied the new modem and did not cause any Wi-Fi issues.
After update, to root just use the CF auto root for Canadian models with Odin then goo manager for custom recovery (twrp).

So i rooted my Samsung Galaxy s4 today, and i was told by my friend to use clockworkmods recovery before i start using custom roms. Since there was no option for a gt-i905 on there, i went to the internet and i found a .tar file that had gt-i905 compatibility. SO, through the amazing power of odin, i went into download mode and "installed" clockworkmods. According to odin, it was successful. According to my phone it was not. IT couldnt boot in to recovery and it always went back into download mode saying that it could not boot properly and that it was in odin mode. So pulled the battery out and went back in to download mode and instead of volume up, i pressed volume down to restart the phone. The turned back on normally.BUT, everytime i attempt to go back into recovery, it shoves me back into download mode. I have no idea what i did and i would like to know if there was anyway of fixing such problem?
Thanks

Very easy to Fix it...
If you are rooted install Mobile odin, search on XDA not on Google in S4 I9505 section For a Recovery...
Download it (Make sure it is the right file)
Put it in Odin and just press flash...
Enjoy...
If there is a Problem check your device and flash the stock firmware from Samsung and then Flash again the recovery....
Hit thanks if i helped...

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)
I just installed cwm recovery on my note 3 that had stock root android 5.0. I used recovery tools from the app store and selected reboot into recovery after it flashed it. Now all it does is try to reboot into recovery fails and restarts the process over again.
I can't get into download mode and removing the battery does not help.
Any ideas?
Shouldn't be that severe. Are you sure you're pressing the right buttons to get into download mode?

A client brought in her phone (S4-i337) that was in recovery mode, at first i thought it was something simple but not really. At first i did a wipe data but it couldn't boot up instead after rebooting, it went back to recovery mode. Surprisingly, this phone boots up normally when you try to boot to download mode. As in, when i press Volume down + Home + Power, instead of it going to download mode, it boots up fully then i happen to use it for until when I restart it. I've updated it to Android 5 using some file that i found on some forum, thought it would help but same case. Members, am out of ideas on what i should do. I've flashed it with Z3X box, but i also get an error, same as Odin. Any help is highly appreciated
What are you flashing to the phone? If it was running a stock 4.4.2 ROM or newer, the bootloader would be locked and AT&T never released a complete Odin firmware flash after 4.1.2.
