Okay so i did something dumb and I'm wondering if there is a way out. I just got my second Note 5 because I dropped my first one and the screen went black. It was gonna be cheaper and easier to just buy a new device than actually repairing all the damage.
I installed TWRP through Odin. Stupidly, I did a complete wipe, including internal storage, and now I can't get the device to see the USB/OTG. I have a new cable on the way that's going to get here tomorrow. I can't think of what else it could be? Any ideas would be much appreciated. It doesn't have an OS so I'm thinking I may have wasted 250$.
It's not turbo charging either so could It be the charging port that's causing it to not be picking up the OTG?
Does Odin recognize it at least in download mode?
Have you tried mount on as usb in twrp?
press install>select storage then there will be two option
Internal storage and USB storage. Click on USB and the value will change from 0 to the amount of gb your otg have,then you can flash via otg

I tried to mount it in TWRP but the box is uncheckable. That is my problem. I go to install and under the select storage I cant select USB OTG and it says (0MB). I'm kinda perplexed. Thanks for the advice though!

Step 3 from the other guy's post above you. That's what I was gonna help you with because you wiped the internal storage. Odin will still recognize it but in Download mode and she won't work again unless you flash the stock firmware specifically for your phone from the link above.
Fixed
I reOdined and same problem so I went back and looked at the instructions. I saw that you had to have MM flashed onto the device so I tried that and it worked. I just figured updating the phone would give me enough but it didn't. Thanks for all the help guys!

Hi there,
I had my old phone Micromax E313 which comes with MT6592M Chipset.
So, I decided to PORT TWRP Recovery for this phone. I have successfully made it.
So sharing this Recovery with you, you can easily flash
FOR KITKAT Ver. only, Not sure about Lolipop Version, so try at your risk, I'm not responsible for any kind of damage to your phone.
Steps to Install :
1. Download SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1604_Win through search in Google.
2. Extract and Open flashtool.exe using Run as Administrator.
3. Now Select the scatter file and Click on Download Button.
4. Remove phone battery and connect to your PC/Laptop using MicroUSB cable and wait till it flashed. (Will take 20 Seconds).
5. Boom! Now you can boot to recovery using Volume Up and Power Button.
