I've flashed twrp 3.2.2 for trlte version for my sm-n190s but when i go into recovery it goes into the normal stock recovery pls help
Try flashing like this: Untick auto-reboot, flash TWRP. Once done, force power off by pulling the battery, then put it back in and boot into download mode again. Flash TWRP one more time, and this time it's guaranteed to stick.
i had an issue with flashing it 2
u need to un cheek the auto restart from odin and restart it on your own by either taking the battery out or just keep pressing power and vol down and home .

I am trying to install PhilZ recovery using ODIN, and its not taking. Was wondering if someone would throw a quick lifeline to me.
In ODIN, loaded philz_touch_6.26.6-klte.tar.md5 (MD5: 7C12BE66039B60731CA20DDECFF71A92) into the PDA slot
Only checked reboot and f.reset time
S5 into download mode by vol down+home+power
COM port shows up in ODIN
Start
Xfer's fine, and phone reboots normally
Shut down, and booted into the stock recovery instead of PhilZ
Repeated above but no check of reboot
At end of xfer, three-fingered again per instructions if you reboot into normal recovery, but once again, stock recovery.
Anything special about Sprint S5's?

EDIT: Figured it out. Its vol UP, not vol DOWN to get into recovery.
I tried mobile odin to re flash my already rooted and cyanogen'd note 3 back to a root ed stock rom,
After hitting the go button it reset and now will only reset into reboot recovery mode.
I have since tried odin connected to a pc and this shows it as added so I think it is connected ok, I have a rom and that shows up as fine and when I click start it reports the SetuConnection message and just sits there.
The problem I have is that it won't reboot into download mode no matter what i try.
Additionally, when I boot I see the recovery reboot message for a second and the Samsung logo and then the screen goes black and stays that way. Bth the capacitive buttons vibrate when you touch them but do nothing else and the volume seems to change the volume up and down. Still with the black screen though
Anyone come across this or have any ideas.

it could be your recovery image is broken somehow. make sure your phone is off. try download latest custom recovery. i recommend either twrp or philz touch cwm. while phone is off, press home + power + volume down. when you see a warning screen, press volume up. this will go to download mode. flash new recovery via odin.
i had issues before with custom recovery causing recovery boot loop. the only confirm working recovery for me is cwm philz touch and twrp.
I have a SM-900I (Taiwan version) with the Samsung version of Lollipop 5.0. I'm trying to install a custom recovery for backup purposes. I'm flashing the TWRP2.8.0.1 image using Odin 3.07. It seems I can have the custom recovery installed, but when I restart the phone it goes back to the stock recovery.
In Odin I'm checking only "Reset F. Time", I'm loading the tarball of the recovery as PDA, I start the process and it stops once it has reached "RES OK!!", I unplug the phone and shut it off, start it in recovery mode and the custom recovery is there, but after I launch Android and try to access recovery again I load up the stock recovery.
Solved by using a more up to date recovery image.
Tick off the auto reboot on odin
Then
Flash your recovery
Wait until it's done abt 2 min
Remove your battry and put it back
Go straightly in to the recovery mode by pressing volume up+power and home
U will see your custom recovery
Ps: flash the compatible twrp or phiztouch to your device
Hi, I hope that someone can help me revive my S5. I was on resurrectionremix rom but decided to see what pure N5 rom was like. I asked up my rom then done the normal procedures & installed the N5 rom which booted up fine, after playing around with it for a Shor while I decided that I prefer resurrectionremix so I booted into twrp recovery, factory wiped as i have done many times in the past, when it had finished I rebooted but I stead of booting into life I was confronted with 'Downloading,... Do not turn off target' see attached picture & now I am unable to boot up. I have removed the battery and sim for 5 mins but nothing. If this has been posted before please could you direct me to it. Thankyou in advance
Did you restore your backup?
Flash TWRP again
Yes, tried flashing twrp recovery with Odin but still goes to the same. Trying to download the stock firmware from Samsonite but it keeps failing

Use samfirm tool
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647
Just enter SM-G900F and BTU in the top left panels, and tick automatic for the rest
Then check the "Automatically decrypt" on the right, and hit download
When you flash TWRP with ODIN, flash TWRP 3.0.0.0, and uncheck "Auto reboot" in ODIN
Once it completes the flash, disconnect USB and pull the battery to power off, then replace battery and immediately boot into recovery with Volume Up & Home & Power
Thanks for your help, appreciated
I followed the forum instructions to flash TWRP onto my N910F Note 4 according to instructions: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55277852&postcount=3
All works fine. But when I reboot into the bootloader I still get the original bootloaded with the "Downloading Do not turn off target" notice.
On that tutorial it does say at the end that if the recovery hasn't changed then to uncheck the auto-reboot option. Did that, but same again.
What could I do?
Download mode is nothing to do with recovery.
You flashed a custom recovery, therefore you'll need to boot into recovery, not bootloader (download mode in Samsung phones). Power off your phone, then hold power, home and vol up to access the recovery you just flashed.
Sometimes the phone indeed overwrites the newly flashed custom recovery with the stock one, in such cases it usually helps to disable auto reboot in Odin (as you did), holding power+home+both volume buttons to force a reboot, then booting back to download mode and flashing the recovery one more time. Happy flashing!
