Hey, I just tried rooting my Galaxy Note 5 from Bell, model SM-N920W8, and was unable to boot into recovery when using arter's Philz recovery (though odin reported the flash successful). I tried TWRP afterwards which works as a recovery, however afterrwards my OS stopped booting, resulting in a bootloop before the boot animation. even when trying to flash a new ROM (VIPER 1.4) it bootloops and trying to flash Philz through a zip file also breaks recovery. Is there anything I am doing wrong?
Im going to try another rom, but any suggestions or knowledge as to why i can't get CWM or my System to boot.
Edit: Tried the SpaceX kernel and it seems to be working. Guess arter's kernel and recovery just wont play nice.

I had installed LiquidSmooth ROM on my Samsung Galaxy Note GTN7000 a while ago. I run Philz Touch recovery version 6.0.0.1 .
When I tried flashing CM11 , I got an error something like set_metadata_recursive .. .
I googled it up, and found that I need to update my recovery. SO, i downloaded the latest version of CWM from their website and tried flashing it through the recovery. And it is resulting in a sudden shut down and then in a bootloop when switching on .
What wrong am I doing? How can I rectify this?
Flash Raw Kernek r5:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397000
On our device the recovery is incorporated into the kernel, never flash a recovery or kernel that isn't meant for our device.
Once you have flashed that, reboot to recovery and perform a full wipe. Then proceed with the installation of CM.
Trying to flash my Note 4 (Canadian version - N910W8) with either the AllianceROM 1.1 or TEKXodus 3.6 ROMs. Can't seem to get it done and I'm so incredibly frustrated.
Chronologically-speaking, here's what I did.
1. Rooted with appropriate Auto-Root file with Odin 3.09
2. Used Flashify to flash the latest TWRP files (2.8.7)
Most of the time, I just reboot onto "dm-verity verification failed." I've tried everything I can think of.
Sometimes, I get lucky and boot into TWRP. When I flash using TEKXodus 3.6 ROM, it proceeds to do everything but then, the screen goes black and I can never boot. I've read it can take 15 min for it to boot. I've waited 30 min with nothing. Only thing I could do is boot back into Download mode to reflash it with a stock ROM through Odin.
I don't understand why this doesn't work and I've flashed a bunch of phones before without any issue! Help? Anybody? UGH!
need help

So i see your posting about your flashing but what about your wipes..
Nandroid backup ext sd.
Then reboot twrp.
Wipe sys/dal/cache/data..
Include the internal if after what i posted above doesnt work.
Check the md5 sum of your downloaded rom..
Nav to your ext sd were you should have the rom stored..
And flash the rom..
Curious as to why you used flashify to get twrp.. it comes in a tar and flashes easy in odin..
You might wanna try that as well twrp may not be installed 100% corectlly.
Ok..[emoji41] [emoji106]
Last but not least you need to use bishock kern in your flash after the Rom flash, in the same session before reboot.
Or it will never work.
You booting problem more than likely kernel related..

Galaxy Note 3 AT&T. Can't boot to ROM-Safestrap boots straight to stock recovery mode
Hello guys, for some reason I'm not able to boot to my rooted stock 5.0 ROM (Galaxy NOTE 3, AT&T, Lollipop 5.0). Everything was working fine, then I booted to safestrap to backup my stock ROM (which went succesfully) as I wanted to tweak some things in my phone afterwards. I dont really know what happened but since then I cant boot normally to the ROM, but my phone goes straight to the stock recovery mode. I've tried everything to my knowledge already, from the stock recovery the boot option just sends me back again to the same recovery mode. If I press the "continue" button on safestrap initial screen it also sends me to the stock recovery mode, same If I just wait 10 seconds, same if I try rebooting from within the safestrap options. I can't get pass the recovery mode to the normal ROM booting. Not sure what's going on here as I just performed a backup, didnt install nor restore any ROM before having this problem...The backup seems to be there in my external card so I guess I could restore it to the stock slot hoping this could send me to boot normally to the ROM.....Is there anything I'm missing here???...Does any body know what may be happening??....any advise is greatly appreciated!!...Many thanks!!

Safestrap does not work with the lollipop oc1 kernel... in order to use safestrap with lollipop, you have to flash the nc2 kit kat kernel first, then boot into safestrap. There is a tool called the nc2 flasher you can use use - you should read the following thread for tips and tricks.

Kernel Flasher
What you would have needed to do after backing up your rom... before you left safestrap you would have needed to flash the recovery flashable oc1 kernel, then reboot. There is a recovery flash able oc1 kernel around here on the forums in several places... here is a link I found
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934551552
But since it seems like you didn't reflash the oc1 kernel before leaving safestrap you will need to use odin to reflash the oc1 kernel...
If you go to this thread, you can download the odin flashable oc1 kernel and then use odin to flash the kernel to your device. Then you should be able to reboot your phone normally.

*** disclaimer... I'm not a developer, but I flashed numerous roms on this n900a and this is the struggle we currently face with our locked bootloader. Things can go wrong, but if I we're having the issue you described, this is how I would try to get my device back up and running.
I tried to flash TWRP recovery with odin, everything went fine. But when I try to boot into recovery, my device (G800F) boots into Samsung recovery. I flashed recovery image 3 times but it doesn't work anyway. Any idea to fix it?
Back to 4.4

I used Android 5.1.1 too but wanted Cyanogenmod on my phone. So I flashed twrp in Odin and it boots in Samsung recovery.
I had to return back to 4.4 and root my phone. Downlaod the pit file from sammobile, flash it with odin and after that I rooted it. In supersu I had to deactivcate knocks. Only then I could install twrp and then it work fine!!!
Thanks a lot
Hello, just bought an used i8190. Since last friday i have been trying to flash a custom recovery on this phone via Odin, but after i flash it returns to the default recovery on next boot.
Yes, i have unchecked the "Auto-reboot" option on Odin. I turn off the phone and then manually enter recovery but with no results. I rooted the phone pretty easily and installed both TWRP and CWM apps to flash from android, but they don't work either (twrp crashes always and CWM just gives me an error.
Mi baseband model is XXAll2
kernel is 3.0.31 [email protected] (root name seems weird)
I searched the forum and found similar cases with the baseband, but even so i haven't found a concrete solution.
I even flashed a new pre-rooted rom from this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2030282
Mi compilation number has changed to XXAMG1 but the baseband remains the same. I can't flash a recovery whatever i try.
I hope someone can give me an answer, cause i really want to use this phone feautures to it's fullest
Update:
Somehow, i managed to flash CWM via it's app successfully. However, when i tried to flash the TWRP via zip all i got was a blank screen and the phone booted directly to Android. I had to reflash the cwm with the app. However, i tried flashing via odin the Lineage os 14 from novafusion and i got a bootloop, reflashed the old stock firmware and now my device works but the recovery doesn't, and can't even flash this time via the app.
I tried flashing via ODIN stock recovery and other recoverys and i still get the same result. I have downloaded some stock roms, but im afraid to flash them in case i end up in a bootloop and unable to access recovery still
Any clues?

Flash the stock rom as it will fix bootloops and bricked devices. Make sure to have the right ROM and flash it with Odin. The os may take longer on first boot and make sure to factory reset it as data may cause bootloops, then try flashing the recovery.
I flashed twrp 3.1.1 through Odin
