Can't flash Custom Recoveries. All got stuck in first splashscreen. - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm having a bit of trouble trying to get a Custom recovery working in my phone. It's a SM-N920C International (UAE) version. If I flash Arther's Philz Recovery or TWRP both of them get stuck in "Samsung Galaxy Note 5, Recovery is not SEandroid enforcing". Usually it should start right away but even waiting like 10 minutes it doesn't start. I can use the phone normally and even flash stock roms with ODIN. It just doesn't want to start any Custom Recover I throw into it. Any thoughts?

Oops, I've forgot that! I'm on Marshmallow
Btw I realized that I was installing LP recoveries in MM so I flashed the lastest TWRP build and now it works. The new problem is that I managed to root it but even if SuperSU works I can't manage to modify system files and busybox doesn't work either. I've flashed Dr.Ketan experimental MM root over Supersu 2.67 (Systemless root) because it didn't worked.. so maybe there's a conflict there. I'll report tomorrow.

Fixed with a beta of twrp

I go into odin and flash, says successful and phone boot up just fine. but when I power phone off and try to launch twrp it just stays on the samsung galaxy note 4 powered by android screen, then shuts off the goes back to screen and does this it wont boot to twrp or boot back to normal start up. i have to go back to download mode and start the process all over again reflashing dok2 and root, Every time i try to install twrp same thing. Any ideas?
Latest twrp is like 2.8.7.6 or something not 3.0.0 make sure your flashing the correct twrp or philz recovery for your phone model.

Have TWRP installed on Note 5 DUOS SM-N9208 but phone only boots to android recovery?

I was trying to install TWRP on my Note 5 using odin and everything worked perfectly. I even got the green "PASS" icon. But when it rebooted, I turned off the phone to boot into TWRP using Home+Power+Vol Up, and I got a installing system updates icon, then a fallen android bot with a yellow cross sign on top, and then it loaded into default android recovery, not TWRP. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thank you very much!!
This happend to me too. What you need to do is to flash a custom kernel for your device because you installed a custom recovery and what happens is that that the stock kernel stops working or it gets erased, but the fix for the problem is flashing a custom kernel.

Thank you for the reply. I'm new to the rooting scene so by kernel you mean one of those auto root kernels you can flash through Odin?

I can't flash it through custom recovery because I can't get to it
But before you flash the TWRP again to your device and the kernel you need to download the official firmware for your Note 5 because it seems that you messed up real bad with you phone.
Just google official firmware N9208 and download it to then flash it through ODIN in download mode, then after installing the Firmware boot up the phone and set it up, after that you go to Developers Mode and enable OEM and USB Debugging, after that you download the kernel i provided above for your N9208 IN YOUR PHONE. Afterwards, go to Download Mode and flash TWRP through ODIN in your phone and then boot up the recovery and flash the kernel that is in thr internal storage of your phone in the Download folder. Now the phone should br rooted. If you still didn't understand the instructions then look up this video https://youtu.be/We6OUJvzve0
hope it works for you ?

Thank you SO much for that detailed reply. I understand the instructions but is it alright if instead of flashing a stock firmware I just factory reset my phone?

Using an N910t3 I flashed emotion MM rc25 , confirmed wifi didn't work, tried the data fix it put me in a bootloop, luckily I had made a complete backup in TWRP and restored it already, just want to warn anyone else before they try it.
You should keep A backup of the original the "boot" partition in twrp. In TWRP>Backup>select "boot" only. That keeps the stock kernel.
I haven't tested any alternative kernels personally.
I feel that the stock MM kernel is doing great.
MM works fine. I'm waiting for MM kernel
I had a few problems with Marshmallow but finally installed the latest PG2. My phone N910T boot looped and caused some problems but eventually I finally had a working 6.0.1 stock. I installed TWRP and SuperSU SYSTEMLESS and used the phone for 2 days.
I tried flashing Beastmode and Emotion kernels but neither worked and I was stuck in a boot loop. Eventually I tried to reinstall stock without a wipe as this always works and keeps my apps etc.
The stock said the md5 checksum was invalid even though it was the same file from 2 days earlier. To fix this I removed the file extension, preventing it from doing the MD5 check and attempted to install. It bricked my phone as the process appeared to stop at halfway and I aborted. I found modem and bootloader files for PG2 and took a shot at installing them. I got to another bootloop.
I tried the stock tarfile again and was a little more patient this time. The previous delay was only a few minutes long. It installed succesfully. I Installed TWRP with ODIN, followed by a systemless root in recovery mode.
I'm currently waiting for MM kernels. I hope my little adventure helps somebody else on their journey.

I don't know. I've upgraded bootloader in the past without issues. There seems to be issues surrounding mismatched modems and bootloader recently.

How to Install Korean 6.0.1 Samsung touchwiz Marshmallow to T700

Ok what you need to do is download the tool SAMFIRM in the general thread. fill in the model and region which will be SM-T700 and KOO in region section . wait for it to download once it says decrypt finished extract tar from zip with winrar then flash tar in Odin. Once odin has flashed it then tab reboots put it into stock recovery, hold home button volume up and power button together and hold for 4/5 seconds then let go. wipe data factory reset then let it boot. Enjoy
Why the need to wipe data/reset? Samsung stock upgrades are always compatible with the previous data.
It was bootlooping

Most likely just needed dalvik wiping.
I would dirty flash, boot then wipe data only if necessary.
Factory reset was the first option I seen in stock recovery. Not used to being in stock recovery normally twrp
I am trying to flash it with Flashfire due to keep rooted.
Had to to wipe factory reset from recovery.
Good Lock works fine, but appears a little thin
Just reroot after flashing via Odin if flash fire don't work
Guys,sorry for the noobish question,
do you confirm I can eventually get back to my lollipop ROM with a full TWRP backup after flashing MM?
If you've backed it up on a external device then yes sure. You will need to reroot after flashing this though.

Sorry but what root do you use, the old chainfire root for Lollipop?
Yes I'm sure cf auto root works. I haven't tried it but t805 users have so it should work.

TWRP,Supersu and Xposed working :good:.
(got the following message whenever I enter the recovery: "recovery is not seandroid enforcig"..still it doens't seems to affect anything )
Here is what I did in case some newcomer like me is asking:
1) flashed the rom with odin and booted in
2)flashed twrp with odin (the one kindly provided by Ashyx here TWRP)
3)flashed supersu with twrp (SuperSU)
4)flashed xposed 86.0 sdk23 arm from wanam's thread with twrp (here)
Any idea about the "recovery is not seandroid enforcig" thing?
Does anyone know if its possible to enable adoptive storage in this?

It means nothing. The Tab S didn't support this warning until MM, so nothing was required to remove it.
It's trivial for me to remove it, but more hassle than its worth considering it means nothing.
I actually prefer to have it as it clearly indicates Iam booting into recovery.
