Hi Guys
I'm on a note 3 n9005 a d have installed the lollipop firmware by the method shown here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/guide-t2983873
but now since I have flashed CWM recovery all it tells me is Could not boot normal and goes back to download mode. Normal booting of the phone works fine.
Can anyone help with this ?
Thanks

Flash the latest version of TWRP (2.8.5).

how did you install cwm? Try using twrp flash it using pc odin.

Thanks for getting back to my guys.
I eventually flashed TW on and it worked then tried using ROM manager to put CWM on. All this got me was a recovery loop.
The problem I have is I have a CWM backup of my phone and want to restore it but cant using TW.
Any thoughts on how to get CWM working on the phone ?

is there any 2.8.5 TWRP for SM 9005?
I cant find any...

Did you flashed twrp on Ur device?
for install cfautoroot you must install twrp.tar on your PC (download from here https://dl.twrp.me/klte/twrp-3.0.2-2-klte.img.tar). then you must flash it via odin.
to flash it make sure you installed your device drivers on PC and enabled USB debugging in developer options.
then boot your phone in downloading mode by pressing power+home+volume down button. then connect your phone to the PC. open odin app and choose the recovery.tar you install from the link i gave you. flash it and wait until finish(maybe 2 or 3 min) and then reboot your device to recovery by pressing power+home+volume up button. flash your cfautoroot and enjoy [emoji5] .

I get the same exact thing on a sm-g900t3 (Galaxy S5 - tmobile, north America) Oddly enough I can get https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxys5qualcomm.html installed no problem, but whenever I try to install root, either the supersu.zip via twrp or chainfire's autoroot directly from his site, it just bootloops into recovery.

I actually got it working, by installing a different version of supersu. The one I had was an update-supersu. I then found the full version and it worked. It did reboot itself a couple of times. The cf autoroot did not work for me at all. I opened it up in 7-zip and only saw cache and recovery, nothing related to supersu. I would like to tell anyone that the roms from sammobile did work, but I had to try a couple of them before i found the one which would flash properly.

If you extract the boot.IMG (or recovery.IMG I don't remember but not cach.ext4) and flash it via TWRP it does the trick. That's what worked for me.

Red screen after flashing TWRP

so i have a s7 edge , rooted, custom ROM etc.
yesterday i decided to reset it , so i restored the firmware through Smart Switch.

Twrp recovery for Samsung Grand Prime

There are soo many variants of samsung galaxy grand prime and therefore I'm confused to find twrp recovery for my phone.
My phone details.
Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime
SM G530H
Baseband version : G530HXCU1BPB1
Someone please help me to find stable twrp recovery for my device.
Also tell me what happens if I installs twrp recovery of other variat of samsung grand prime.
Regards

Hi
You have Fortunve3g , you have to flash Fortuna3g's Twrp because there isn't any Twrp for fortunve3g.
https://dl.twrp.me/fortuna3g/twrp-3.4.0-0-fortuna3g.img.tar
But after flashing this with Odin or whatever , you should flash this one with Twrp ( pitch black recovery for fortunve3g ):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/grand-prime/development/unofficial-pbrp-grand-prime-t4048881/amp/
If you install the wrong recovery, when you boot the phone into recovery, your phone will go into download mode. Of course, this does not happen in some close models, but some errors will happen during the installation of custom roms .

Thanks for replying...but!
If I install twrp fortuna3g recovery will it run stable and why should i need to flash black pitch recovery using twrp fortuna3g recovery.
BTW I've downloaded this file
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=962157660013068307
Will it work or I should try your method?

Can't seem to install custom recovery

I can't seem to install a custom recovery. I've rooted my note 3. I don't know if my bootloader is already unlocked. I have the international exynos version. When I try to flash twrp or cwm it says the flash is successful. But when I try to boot into recovery I get a crashing android sign for less than a second, and then goes into the regular android recovery.
Like I said, I don't know if the bootloader is unlocked. When I try to unlock the bootloader through adb it says that command is not recognized: fastboot unlock oem.
I hope someone can give me some advice, thanks!
