Hi all. Could use some help. Not sure which step I am missing. I followed the Philz Touch instructions below and flashed the MD5 recovery package with Odin. First with the "Auto Reboot" option ticked, then without. Odin says successful but I can't seem to get it to boot into recovery. Am I using the wrong three buttons? When I tried it just came up the battery charging logo.
Should I not have "F. Reset Time" ticked?
boot into download mode
start odin3 and configure it as in picture below
connect phone in download mode to PC via USB
press start to flash the tar.md5 package
normally, phone should auto-reboot into recovery.
If it reboots into main system and your recovery remains stock, repeat above steps and untick "autoreboot" in odin. Once flash is done, keep pressing the 3 buttons combo to for a reboot into recovery.You should see the new CWM
when in recovery, if you choose option "reboot system now" and you get "yes - disable flash recovery", select that option to avoid stock recovery overwriting cwm
Anyone? Can someone simply verify the 3-button reboot sequence?
I have a newly rooted Sprint GS4 which I updated to MF9 before rooting. I used Odin 1.85 to root it. I am now looking to install a custom recovery and kernel and eventually experiment with some different ROMs. I decided to go with the PHILZ Touch CWM based recovery and flashed the correct tar.md5 file based on his instructions listed here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39433857&postcount=4. However, I am running into the issues that he addresses regarding the phone auto-rebooting back into the main system and not into the newly installed recovery. I did as he said and un-checked the "auto reboot" option and tried again a couple times. Once it seemed to get stuck on the downloading screen when i unplugged the device after successful install via Odin, then I tried the same leaving the phone plugged into the computer and it seemed to get stuck on the battery charging logo. I am deftly afraid of bricking this thing so I was hoping someone who's done this can explain exactly which step I am missing. Thanks very much and thanks for the noob thread.

With the phone powered off, press and hold the power and volume up buttons, and when the phone vibrates, release the power button but not the volume button. You should get a screen saying booting recovery, followed by the recovery ROM.

Geez, I thought I had tried that multiple times but it just worked finally!!! Thanks angie! Finally into the recovery and performing a nandroid backup as we speak.
hi, i'm unable to boot into recovery by choosing the recovery option from the bootloader mode. i can get into recovery by using 'adb reboot recovery' when it's booted into android. i have tried multiple recovery images of twrp also philz cwm, it just doesn't work from the bootloader mode. anyone has experienced this issue or have an idea?
thanks in advance

Hi, I flashed this monday the leak of Lollipop for Samsung Galaxy S4 (9500) and after I followed all the steps one by one I'm the only one in earth that isn't able to start the phone in the recovery mode. For this reason I can't flash gapps. I am not able to downgrade even because for the KNOX.
Someone has the same problem? Can anyone figured out how to enter in recovery mode?
P.D: I have attempted to do it with the buttons (vol down + pow + home) and with adb and the usb connected to the phone. Anyone was the solution.

after flashing Rom with Odin you have to flash openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-klte.tar
Installing Recovery and rooting steps :
1- download twrp from here
2- go to flash mode
3- run Odin load file as AP then click start
4- go to recovery by powering off your device and hold volume up + home + power button
5- when you want to reboot to system Twrp will ask you to install SuperSU (rooting your device)
6- swipe to confirm

I did all of this, still can't to initiate in recovery mode.
i had the same problem, try downloading philz (philz_touch_6.48.4-i9500) or twrp recovery (openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-i9500) and install via odin (AP box)
I didn't try the above i just installed the rom again, doing this:
- only the AP file
- uncheck "auto reboot"
- After the process finishes dont reboot the phone to tw, just go to the recovery mode and the wipe cache/data
- Install philz or twrp via odin

So, flash the ROM again with nothing more than the AP box fullfiled and then, when it finishes hold (vol up + power + home). Wipe cache, restart and flash custom recovery.
Am I right?

It can not, because in the first flash has deleted the modem, bootloader, csc and others, so if flashing only AP will not operate the phone, only the PDA.
And masicen these questions have to do in the same thread firmware also behold the solution.
Flashes the firmware again, to start turn it off and go into Recovery by: Volume Up + Home + Power in this order and holding down until you see the Samsung logo there S4 loose and enter the stock recovery, do wipes and restart it, then download Philz Touch in its latest version and flash it with Odin and restart turn it off and try to enter the recovery now.-

p.d: thanks for your help.
hey guys! first post but I have been lurking here and there before registering.
Sorry if this is the wrong section to post this in. I am trying to root my note 4 and I installed TWRP using Odin. Now when I go into recovery mode to flash SuperSu, it says "no command" with the android guy laying on the floor. I tried the factory reset option and I installed TWRP again but still same problem. I can still load my phone and use it as usual but now I can't go into recovery mode with TWRP and flash supersu to root it. Anyone know how I can fix this problem? Any help would be appreciated.
No one knows?

What is the model number of your Note 4? When you are at the "no command" screen, try holding the volume up button and then press the power button to take you to recovery. I'd that doesn't work try holding the power button and tapping the volume up button quickly and release all buttons and see if it allows yoj to access recovery. I'd these do not work keep trying different button combinations. I'd you still cannot access the recovery menu you may have to Odin the factory firmware and start over. Let me know what happens.

none of those button combinations work. I will install stock firmware on it again and see if that fixes the recovery.
I had this problem in the past, I think the problem was that when I was installing TWRP via Odin that I had not powered off the phone so it looked like it installed but actually didn't, try taking out the battery and then boot into recovery or download mode whatever it is that is used for Odin and install again

If you cannot get into recovery with any button combination boot to download mode and use Odin to flash all 4 files of the factory firmware. That will give you a fresh start. Let me know how it goes.

Use the VOLUME UP/DOWN BUTTONS to scroll to WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET and let it do its thing. When it's done select REBOOT SYSTEM NOW.
Tell me what that does.

Yes it will but it is the most likely way out of your bootloop. Before you wipe, connect your device to your PC and boot to recovery. Once your PC recognizes your device internal storage, transfer everything that you can think of.

I should expect a menu with install option so I can flash the SuperSUfile in the device internal memory, instead this is happening:

That looks like TWRP didn't stick when you flashed it using Odin. Try a different version of Odin and flash TWRP.

So idk if you've gotten it fixed, but what worked for me was: I had been turning on the phone after odin did its thing, and that caused the oem recovery to reinstall itself. So instead of letting odin auto boot be ready to push the volume up button to put it into twrp recovery. I had to remove my battery to keep it from booting fully.
We need to try another time flash. Conditions - old Odin 3.06, configured to remove reboot.

In ODIN go to 'options' and uncheck 'auto-reboot', then flash TWRP. When it's done, it won't reboot, just pull the battery for several seconds, reinsert it and boot into TWRP Recovery.
Enjoy!
When I try to flash any thing it gets stuck on boot.img
Hi everyone,
I am trying to root my device but I have had no luck!
I flash the TWRP with Odin and get a pass, but when I boot my phone into recovery mode to install SuperSu I am faced with the normal Android recovery mode.
I am running 5.1.1 Lollipop and have made no changes to the device.
Can anyone help?
Bump
Do not restart on the rom after the flash but on the recovery.

Hi there,
Sorry im quite new to all of this.
Do you mean untick auto-reboot on odin?
At reboot, after the recovery flash, you need to press "volume up+home+power" to reboot on the recovery.
If you uncheck auto-reboot you can reboot with "volume down+home+power" and when the screen goes off press "volume up+home+power".
So for my problem the solution is not to tick auto-reboot on odin right? I am highly confused
Disable auto reboot or you need to be faster to press buttons when the screen goes off ^^
If the stock rom boots it'll replace the recovery by the original, you need to accept a popup in the twrp recovery to lock this function.
I forgot to say, supersu is not the best software at the moment magisk is maybe a little better :

Untick auto reboot, after flashing twrp pass then remove your battery from phone.
Plug in your battery and press power+volume up+home together to go to twrp and flash supersu or magisk
