Hello,
A few months ago my younger brothers SM-G900I had the classic problem of receiving an update that resulted in the device booting the displaying "Set Warranty Bit:Kernel."
Recently my brother asked me to try fix it. When I tried to boot to recovery mode to fix this I saw the normal "Booting recovery mode" but below that I also saw "Set Warranty Bit: Recovery," This then results in recovery mode not booting and going back to the normal black screen and nothing happening ordeal.
At the time of this happening I have been told by my farther that he booted into recovery mode and did a full system wipe
After doing that wipe the phone hasn't since booted into Recovery mode, I believe that there's nothing I can do to fix the phone due to Recovery mode not booting which means I can't use ODIN to fix the "Set Warranty Bit:Kernel" as I can't go into download mode.
If there is anything I can do please let me know many thanks, Xavier1501
ODIN is separate from recovery, and you don't need to launch it from recovery.
Vol up + Home + Power = Recovery
Vol down + Home + Power = ODIN

Ok, heres some info
Android version 4.3
(tried to install) TRWP recovery (through an app)
SM-N9005
I tried to use the TRWP manager from the google play store to change the recovery. I wanted to make a backup then, and I let it reboot.
Now, my phone says
Recovery booting....
recovery is not seandroid enforcing
set warranty bit : recovery
whether i boot it normally or with vol-up, home and power button it comes to this screen. nothing else shows up and pressing any buttons don't do anything. plugging it in neither.
is there still hope?

Try Vol-down home and power and see if you can get into download mode, if so install your original rom with odin.
Vol down+power+home. Then vol down to cancel.
If it doesn't boot up flash twrp with odin, correct version for 4.3
Hi,
Just tried to flash CWM recovery to the phone. It restarted and the following happens:
Start and shows the following message:
RECOVERY BOOTING...
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Set Warranty Bit: recovery
After this it reboots and repeats. I cant get into recovery (volume down + power + main button)
Any ideas how to solve this.
Thanks

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.

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 had just rooted the phone using Odin. I then tried restarting the phone, that's when it showed the message "Set Warranty Bit - Recovery" in yellow at the top of the screen. When I press and hold the volume down, power button and home button at the same time, it shows a white screen with scrambled pixels. How can I fix this?
Which root method did you use?
Which year A3 is this?
"set warranty bit: recovery" is simply there to tell you that you're not on stock recovery anymore, but it only says that if it is trying to enter into recovery. So...
- Are you booting the phone with vol up + home + power?
- Does it actually enter recovery?
If you are trying to boot normally it should say "set warranty bit: kernel" which is to say your kernel is not stock anymore. This usually happens after rooting, but it should not prevent the phone from booting
The vol down + home + power combination should boot you into download mode, which in my experience is unbreakable. Is it definately this button combination that causes a white screen?
The fix is to get the stock kernel and recovery back on there and the least risky method to do so is to try getting into odin again and flash a stock firmware specific for your device.
To get root after that, flash twrpfirst via odin and then install the supersu zip via twrp
I was flashed TWRP Recovery in my A5 SM-500G and root my phone with Supersu2.82. when i power on my Phone it shows set warranty bit : kernel on top left on the bootscreen with yellow colored text and phone bootup normally but when i restart my phone to recovery mode and reboot phone from recovery mode to normal mode text changed ( Set warranty bit : kernel to Set warranty bit : Recovery ) and phone bootup in recovery mode everytim. And when i flash twrp with Odin then Phone bootup in normal mode. Why this happens everytime when i reboot into recovery mode ?
