When I was trying to flash a new ROM last night somehow the Activation lock is checked and now I'm locked out of recovery mode. Installed TWRP - Odin said "Failed". Do I have to start over and re-load the Lollipop through odin? My phone works and boots up just can't get into recovery. Need help.
This happened to someone else over the weekend.

Thank you very much for your answer but i've got another problem that appears is that i cannot open recovery mode i tried. to give you a specific screen of the problem from the moment that i uninstall cyanogenmod10 and tried to install original firmware that i download it from sammobile.com then the problem appeared. when i am swiching on the phone it loads vodaphone screen and just repating vibrating phone doesn't do anything else.
Recovery combination is vol down+vol up+home+power. Hold until samsung logo
You must install recovery again, wipe data and cache and then flash stock firmware via odin.

Can you be a little more specific? It would really help others trying to help you. If that makes sense.
What happened? Did you flash TWRP over CWM, or vice-versa? Can you not access any sort of recovery?
I would try installing TWRP through this guide
Also, did you install a ROM before this? Did you flash an incorrect modem?
If you did, and don't have a recovery, I recommend checking the link above.
Thank you,
Stephen

We figured it out.
We followed the guide found here: VERIZON ONLY Revert to stock GUIDE [UPDATED] - xda-developers
I hope that anyone who comes across this thread will be able to resolve this issue with having access to only fastboot.
(Restoring access to download mode via this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2681089)
I had a similar encounter playing around with my G2....If you know how to restore to 100% stock VZW VS-980 firmware its a whole lot easier to get things back n moving. their are a couple methods but this is the one I approve of to be the best one

Hi Guys,
I have s3 GT-I9305, android version 4.1.2, baseband version I9305XXBLL5. Australian model for Optus.
I successfully rooted and installed Philz_Touch_6.19.3 _ After that I could do Nandroid online backup and confirm it is rooted.
When I tried to flash custom ROM today - I found I can't boot in CWM/Philz recovery mode. Then I tried to different version of Philz/CWM and TWRP but none worked. It keeps booting in stock recovery mode- I get message as shown in attached image.
PS: I have USB diagnosis checked but haven't unlocked boot loader?
to be specific: my phone works fine - boots fine - It is just I want to load custom rom and it won't go to custom recovery and I can't load custom ROM.
Thanks.
HELP!
can anyone please help me out here!
I kept searching and found some solution but none worked.
I used triangle away. - didn't work
Installed custom recovery without checking auto reset and started after pulling battery out. - didn't work
It still boot in odin mode and I can't go to custom recovery
i have the same problem too when i got my phone flashed 3rd recovery last year,
the stock recovery can automaticly restore itself after reboot~
but i found the solution here in xda,just flash a zip to unlock the self-protection of the stock recovery~
i will tell you the link and the attachment several hours later after my work,if you cannt wait, you can search it here,maybe you can find it yourself.

I had a quick search but couldn't find it. Will greatly appreciate if you can post link.
Thanks
even after you flash a custom recovery...your phone will automatically flash stock recovery every time it reboots...so that's why you will get into stock even if you flash CWM/TWRP or what you like.....
here is the solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-cf-root-cwm-recovery-ported-supersu-t1914394

i used myself and worked....

the guy offered the post which included the solution.
try to flash the "Remove-boot-recovery.p.zip",it will work..
good luck
:fingers-crossed:
Done
Thanks guys.
Above solution didn't work for me but I got it working through rom manager App. I reboot to recovery through ROM Manager and it worked.
How ever After I installed Pacman rom, I couldn't use App as there were no Gapps and wouldn't boot to recovery. The workaround here was to press home, volume up and lock button simultaneously and release it after few second and it will go to custom recovery.
In the end, I am on Pacman Nightly 06/04/2014 with Philz touch recovery.
Sooo, I got a problem with my Galaxy Mini 2.
First, I wanted to flash Cm11 (by TheWhisp), but something went wrong during flashing process, and my device bootlooped.
I tried to go into recovery, but it didn't work.
Than I thought it might be a good idea to flash stock ROM via odin. I did it once in the past, with a succesful outcomes, so I fought it will work again.
This ended with a bootloop, only change was the logo during boot process. Than I tried to flash recovery but it didn't change anything.
So my phone is in bootloop, stock ROM flashing doesn't help, and I can't run recovery.
Any ideas how can I fix it?

Hi there,
I want to give my S2 away as a present to a family member. So I downloaded the latest version (T813XXS2BRF2_T813XAR2BRF2_XAR) and flashed it with Odin. Everything got an OK and PASS, but when I start it up it gets to the Samsung logo and that's it.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
I recommand you to install last TWRP recovery 3.3.0-0 and follow "How to return to full stock" in my thread : Thread
If you never used Samsung Find My Mobile you are fine (If you used it need to remove all settings in it). Hope it will help.
Cheers.

I'll give it a try. Thanks!
Edit: Your TWRP 3.3.0 link doesn't show a T813 version. What version do you want me to use?
I had a similar issue after you flash the stock ROM and it hangs, turn it off and boot back into recovery, most likely it will be stock. From there do a wipe/reset and reboot & let it sit for a while, hopefully, it will bring up the startup screen.

I just get a blue screen with Error on it, like there is nothing installed.
I just try to reflash or reflash TWRP and install a costume ROM again.
