Brother, I'm not exactly a expert in this case, but I cam suggest you a few hit n trials.
Boot into recovery, go to mount and click on system, data, cache, dalvik, etc.
If you've tried doing so, then go to advanced, then to terminal and type in "mount /system" and others. If still this doesn't work. Then better try the cwm recovery. The unable to mount system has happened to me, and that time CWM came to my rescue.

Bro, I did some research but couldn't find anything useful.
Have you tried booting into download mode by pressing VOL UP + POWER KEY and releasing power key once the logo shows up.
And, which recovery (with version) are you using.

Bro I'll suggest you to get a twrp backup from somewhere and then restore it. I don't have bandwidth left, so you should ask some other user for this.
Also, you never told, how this all even started.

get the adb tools this link:

Glad to hear that.
I hope you are following THIS GUIDE at boycracked. All the drivers and other softwares are listed there along with the download links.
Do note, that you have to flash the ROW Firmware (after extracting) and not the Stock ROM. The ROW firmware is available for A6000 only (and not A6000 plus), so you have to use that only, FROM THIS LINK. You can choose any of the ROW firmware. Flashing A6000s firmware won't affect anything except that your recent app cleaner will show 1GB of total RAM (only for display...actually the whole 2GB is used).
Later. after you recover your phone, you can flash the stock ROM or any other custom ROM or maybe leave it like that...

Did you followed each and every step as in the tutorial I mentioned...??
The key point is that you should have correct drivers installed and your device in download mode should be detected in device manager on PC as Qualcomm Preloader Diagnostic Mode whatever...
And keep im mind that you have to extract the 7z ROW Firmware file.

Still Im facing same issue

Which recovery are you using ? The one from Nick Verse won't work with the secure bootloader of the latest Mashmallow updates , when I tried i could not boot into recovery using that one ...
The one from this thread is working perfectly for me at the moment :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/development/recovery-samsung-galaxy-j500f-t3416960

Try the twrp made by ganesh varma.

1-in odin Untick Auto reboot option.
2-After flushing twrp by Odin, remove the battery and insert it again .
3- press volume up+ home+power button to go to twrt.
4- install supersu.zip
I had this issue on j5h but after doing that i could root my phone.

Thanks Guys for your help..

Recovery is not seandroid enforcing, Set Warranty Bit : recovery (0) [G532M][6.0.2]

So, I tried flashing the recovery mode with the files from a tutorial, supposedly for this exact model
Aaaand it totally didn't work, my device didn't brick but I cannot enter recovery mode, it just says:
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Set Warranty Bit : recovery (0)
Aside of that, I can use it normally, but I can't seem to be able to root it without flashing.
What happens?

If you dont find twrp you can use flashfire after root :good:

Bricked S8, have tried multiple solutions

I successfully rooted my phone but it got stuck in a bootloop when I restarted it.
I can't enter recovery mode or turn it off, all I can do is enter odin mode.
I have tried:
1. The AGQ5 fix (https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...g-aqg5-fix-t3636857/post73032395#post73032395) it doesn't work.
2. Smart switch, it says my device is unsupported
Please help!

1- flash twrp again
2- flash stock rom with odin ( download mode )
you can reboot just with vol - + shut down B

you maybe installed the wrong version of twrp the latest one is for the new bootloader if you have the older bootloader install the last version

It doesn't boot into TWRP even after I flash it again

Sorry if I'm asking a question but how do I check my bootloader version? I just used the latest version (twrp-3.1.1-0-herolte.img.tar) from a site but I can't link it.

Flash full stock in odin. Then you can try twrp again if you wish.

It worked, thanks so much for all your help. Words cannot describe how grateful I am.

TWRP custom recovery installs but shows "cannot boot normally" on recovery mode boot

TWRP custom recovery installs but shows "cannot boot normally" on recovery mode boot
Hi, my device is Samsung Galaxy Note 3 sm-n900k (korean). I tried to flash custom recovery (twrp). These are the steps I followed:
-> Went into developers mode and checked USB debugging.
-> Went to security and disabled reactivation lock.
-> Downloaded latest Odin (v3.13.1).
-> Downloaded latest TWRP (twrp-3.2.3-0-hlte.img.tar).
-> Flashed TWRP with odin and Odin showed Pass.(I put my device into download mode did everything suggested in a thread )
-> then I tried to boot in recovery mode but , a message at the top of the screen was displayed in red color : "cannot boot normally".
Please help. Did I do something wrong? Thanks in advance.

Yes. I downloaded it from twrp site. I am not allowed to post a link so the page I downladed it from goes like this:
twrp site -> Searched Samsunge Galaxy Note 3 -> Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (Americas, China, Europe & Korea) (hlte)

Try older twrp
Or read the identical threads .
https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxynote3qualcomm.html

Actually I have already tried about 8 older versions. Upto " twrp-2.8.7.0-hlte-4.4.img.tar " because the official site mentioned they update to support newer devices, I even tried using older version of Odin, also hit many similar threads. But there is very little thread for sm-n900k and reagrding this problem of TWRP not booting even with successful installation. But thanks anyways.

Try Philz Recovery or CWM if installs you can flash twrp zip
