actually there was no problem when flashing with odin... i already used the latest odin.. and im already root my sgs2 nicely and my sgs4 (using adam kernel) with odin..
odin last message was successful and no problem..
my device I9500XXUAMDL and i know it already listed there as working device..
so im still confused why my phone cant get CWM installed right T__T while already rooted by adam kernel too..
+another not really important question... im already in this forum since my sgs2 (almost 2year ago) but now im listed as new member -__- hmm what happened here?

According to XDA your join date is May 2013

Disable Auto Reboot in Odin and flash the CWM, then boot manually into the recovery. Its a known security feature which flashes the stock recovery after reboot.

problem solved

You installed a 4.3 recovery on a 4.4 phone.
Most likely you downloaded the TWRP on the main page and did not download the latest 4.4 compatible one.
Please flash this in Download Mode: http://techerrata.com/bigbiff/hlte-recovery.img.tar
To get into Download Mode, remove the battery, wait a few minutes then put it back, Hold the Download Mode Combination then it would boot directly into Download Mode.
hey nicho, thank you very much
so that was the trick. REMOVE THE BATTERY --> PRESS THE DOWNLOAD KEYS AND HOLD THEM --> THEN ENTER THE BATTERY BACK.
it costed me the whole day yesterday searching for a solution.
at least now I can continue to install a new rom
Thanks man
TWRP
during twrp it told me, there was a newer one. 2.x.x.9
so stupid me, if I had sticked to the plan, nothing would happend.
I used twrp b4 some days ago, for my samsung note 10.1 (2014) without trubbles,
I guess, I overread something
but I'm happy it is all fixed now.
thx for show ur interest
greetz, fred
thank you

Solution To Loop SM-N900P
I am new to XDA and have only been with android for 6 months but i figure this will help new comers to this issue. Power+Volume Down+Home at the same time to enter download mode. Flash CWM via ODIN. This should work to fix the loop. I found out the hard way but it only took me an hour. I am not sure if this will work if you have not already rooted your phone but it should (since this is the major step in rooting). I believe i deleted my CWM file (accidentally) when i was trying to clear space for my recovery with ROM Manager. Be sure to download the Samsung drivers if you had not already done so during the rooting process.
Hope this helps.
Gives me same error message
But after that it boots into recovery.
Should I proceed installing custom rom or is there anything else to be taken care of
Thanks!
Thank you very much,you save me a lot of trouble.

Based on my experience, using rom manager to flash recovery always results in a problem. I suggest you use odin to flash this in download mode.
Btw, 4.4.2 is Kitkat

should I root my phone first using cf-root. Then flash the cwm recovery. What happens if I get stuck in a bootloop after flashing the recovery

The way I did this is, first install the cwm recovery then flash cf-root after. You can always use odin to flash back the original firmware.

Just make sure reactivation lock is off.
When you first start odin, F.Reset Time and Auto Reboot are ticked off so let them be and make sure only those are checked and nothing else.
You probably know this but just to make sure, load the recovery on the AP slot before hitting start.

Cant access CWM anymore.

Tried to install CWM from rom manager 6.0.4.6 but i had 6.0.4.7.
This cus i have problem installing CM updates directly by pressing restart and install.
Efter this i was in a boot loop an could not access CWM only the DL mode. So i installed CWM from the original source i did the first time and then the boot was ok all the way but then tried PWR VOL+ HOME but then i gut in to the boot loop again untli i reinstalled the CWM tried once more but same result.
So now i have CWM installed and i can boot up but i cant access CWM to make backup or restore the previus one.
Any ideas of what could be wrong?
Wrong section

6.0.4.7 is for KK bootloader. If you haven't that's why
go back to 4.6
I have kitkat cm11
maybe thats why it does not work now?

I upgraded to samsung stock kikat before and its non reversible as i got it does that matter?
to be frank, I never try to flash anything from ROM manager.
This tools I've left it very very long time ago.
Have you tried to reflash the KK stock firmware, since you said you are on KK already (to get your stock recovery first), make sure everything is ok. Then reflash the CWM through ODIN. Don't use ROM manager.

[Q] lost root and can't get it back

Hi all,
I rooted my smg900f two days ago and flashed a recovery, everything went fine, I tried a couple of custom rom and at some point I noticed that I didn't have root access anymore (checked with root checker). I launched towelroot again, and now it says that my device is not supported yet. Does anybody encountered the same issue ?

I have clockwork recovery, I had Omega ROM running on my phone (maybe at this moment I already lost root but I only noticed it after), I tried to flash this mod, it didn't work so after a few tries I full wiped my phone and insalled Omega 8.0 again. Then I noticed I lost root access when trying to open some apps.
I also flashed the bootloader for SMG900F featured in the Omega rom thread
That's about it

Then i suggest you flash a stock rom, factory reset and root/flash custom recovery from scratch. Its seems some files are messed up that prevents you to root. Backup important files to the pc/sdcard first. That is what i would do at least

There should be a folder on the sdcard named Clockworkmod with the backup, save it to the sdcard before you factory reset. No a backup can`t be flashed with Odin, only in recovery

Did you flash a stock rom with Odin or flash a custom rom in 3rd recovery? Just do a data factory reset in recovery, pull the battery and wait 20 seconds and flash a stock rom with Odin.

SM-G900F trying to install cm 12.1

Hi Guys i have some Problem to install CM 12.1 on my sgs 5 (SM-G900F).
After much trying i think i have root access to my phone.
no i trying to install cm via the recovery mode from my sd.
But there cames the error = failed to verify whole-file signature
I read that there must a button to change that the signature check turn off, but in my recovery mode there is no point for that.
So i looked how i can update the recovery section but i dont know and i dont find something working for me.
Also my problem with rooting my device dont work with the 4.4.2 rom. I Found a rom called G900FXXU1BOB7_G900FDBT1BOB1_G900FXXU1BOB7_HOME.tar and with that the cf-auto-root-klte works on my phone.
My knox counter is now 0x1 but thats not so bad for me. I have no problem with that.
I Hope you can help me thanks.

If you were on stock rom and just rooted with cf autoroot it sounds like you are still on stock recovery. I don't think its possible to flash cm via stock recovery.

In certain cases, custom recovery won't stick after reboot. The stock firmware will replace it.
Best procedure is to untick "Auto-reboot" in odin and flash TWRP or Phil'z, then manually reboot directly to recovery.
<I use rom manager to flash my Cwm>
Thats your problem . Dont use rom manager at all .Multiple identical posts on the forum .
TWRP is better than CWM, in my opinion. More custom ROMs seem to be more compatible for some reason with TWRP.
2.8.7 to be on the safe side
