[Q] Can't get into CWM Recovery

Hy Guys,
I've got a curious problem.
My GS4 have currently CM 11-20140125-NIGHTLY and i just want to flash the newest nightly.
But if I 'Reboot to Recovery'
It Reboots and shows the "Starting Recovery" logo on the top left ... stuck for 10 sec. or so
And then just Boots normally into CM
If I try the VolUP+Power or VolUP+Menu+Power it happens the same.
Any clous?
[EDIT]
Could be marked as Solved
I Just reflashed PhilZ Recovery via Odin ... Two Reboots later ... I'm in the Recovery Mode
Flash recovery again via Odin or mobile odin see how that goes

[Q] Recovery Won't Boot

Somehow I've messed up my recovery and it won't boot anymore. The phone boots up just fine, but not into recovery mode. When I try and go into recovery mode, the blue text "Recovery Booting" shows, sits for about 5-10 seconds, then boots up the regular system (currently the latest cyanogenmod M6 release).
I've tried flashing different recoveries using Odin 3.09 and 1.85, but both of them fail with "Odin Fail (auth)". On the screen it says "odin secure check recovery failed". I've also tried flashing different recoveries through ROM Manager and GooManager, both of which claim they flashed successfully, but still won't boot into recovery. The phone is still rooted, is there any way I can get a working recovery back??

Cannot access recovery also flash stock rom via odin

Hi everybody. First of all sorry for my bad english. I just got a new i9500 galaxy S4 and I would like to flash a cyanogenmod rom. So i flashed twrp recovery via odin v3.09 with the "PASS" success message. But when when i tried to boot the phone in recovery mode it gets stuck on black screen samsung start up logo with the message "recovery booting..." in the top left corner of the screen. I've decided to flash a stock rom thinking it will solve it. But when i tried to flash with odin i got a fail message in odin and a "unsupport dev_type" red message on the phone screen. Now I cannot access the recovery but normal boot and download mode work with no problem. And I also cannot flash a stock rom via odin.

Rooted my SM-N900V, tried to install recovery now "system software not authorized"
So I used the Arabic program to root my SM-N900V. I downloaded the twrp manager to and tried to install twrp custom recovery but now I'm stuck. top of screen in red "secure fail: recovery". Mid screen exclamation point in yellow triangle. Bottom of screen "system software not authorized by verizon wireless".
I can get to the download screen and tried to use odin to install a different custom recovery but it fails every time.
Please help me! Im afraid I bricked it.
Restore with odin...Your bootloader is locked
With a locked bootloader, you can't install a custom recovery or custom ROMs that are not based on a stock tw ROM.
