Here is what you need to do:
1: setup odin in it's options so it will not reboot the phone
2: odin flash the twrp recovery TAR file using odin
3: when it's done flashing disconnect usb cable.
4: use the method I described to boot directly from the download screen into recovery.
5: in recovery you MUST flash @arter97;s v4.1 custom rooted kernel and supersu in recovery
6: after flashing the custom kernel POWER DOWN the phone.
7: after powerdown reboot into recovery mode, it will be twrp
unless you are doing something wrong. (users fault).
Don't allow the phone to boot or reboot.
The phone must go into recovery mode directly from the "downloading" odin mode screen.
When you are in the "downloading" screen you can also use the 4 finger option to get into
recovery mode.
Volume Up, Volume Down, Home Key and Power Button all at the same time (20 secs or so)
until you see recovery mode. Once you are in recovery use the power off option in it.
If you let the phone bootup by itself you will need to start all over again before you get root.
Doing all the above will root your phone.
Once you are in recovery use it's options to shut the phone down.

I'm confused I did steps 1 through 3 and then try to go into recovery mode with the 4 fingers and it goes into samsung recovery. Is that where I'm supposed to go or have I done something wrong? I know that it did the flash Odin says passed and phone shows knox tripped.

It's supposed to trip knox, that means the you have done a successful odin flash.
Yes when it gets into samsung recovery then you need to select the option to "power down".
After the phone is turned off then boot into recovery and you will have twrp.
Once in twrp flash the arter97 v4.1 kernel and flash supersu in the same twrp session.
No need to reboot into twrp twice.
Good luck!

I figured out how to get it working thanks for your help.

Hi Misterjunky, Will this work on the T-mo latest OTA update (BOH6)? Thanks.

Yes, be sure you get the 4.1, 4.3 or the newer 5.0 version.
Any of those will work just fine.
Good luck!
Have a great evening.

Have you tried any other recoveries like twrp or the regular cwm?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
I found out the solution. After flashing done in Odin, just force into recovery mode without letting it boot to android, then we will see the CWM recovery, select reboot phone now then select Yes to disable from stock recovery on next boot.
Hope this help other user too.

Maybe this will help...
1. Download PhilzTouchRecovery 6.26
2. Put device into Download Mode
3. Run Odin
4. Connect device
5. Load PhilzTouchRecovery.tar.md5 to PDA Tab/Button
6. Uncheck Auto Reboot from Odin
7. Click start. Once Pass! Disconnect device.
8. Hold Power Button, DON'T RELEASE till you boot into your new recovery.
9. Once booted to PhilzRecovery, select reboot system now, select yes. to make sure not to overwrite with stock recovery or else you're PhilzRecovery will be reverted back to your stock recovery and you have to flash again your PhilzRecovery.
10. Once successfully flashed PhilzRecovery. Make all necessary backups.
11. Once fully backed up. Copy backup files to your PC.

[Q] Can't acces recovery mode after succesful rooting.

Hello. I have successfully rooted my sgh-899v and I have have used this method.
galaxynote2root.com/galaxy-note-2-root/how-to-root-galaxy-note-2-easiest-method[Can't link it properly because I do not have 10 posts yet]
Now whenever I try to go into recovery mode, I have the samsung logo which breaks down. After a while it will boot and I can use it. It's not bricked. It just won't go into recovery. I have installed Titaniumbackup and ROM manager and I don't know what to do. The cwm that I flashed through Odin said cmw6 but when I choose the version on ROM manager for recovery setup, I chose ClockworkMod 3.x+ and my phone says current recovery at cwm 5.x.x.x and I still can't acces recovery mode! Please help it is very frustrating for me. Thank you for reading.

my phone is doing the same thing. i rooted it and then i tried to boot into recovery to install a ROM. the logo comes up and then shakes all over the place and then goes to a black screen. then nothing. i have to press the power button and it boots up normally to the regular phone. i downloaded goo manager and tried to install a recover but it loads for a second and then says no recovery found.
is there a way to install a custom rom using odin? i can bypass recovery using odin right? or does that not work?

You can install a custom recovery using Odin (twrp being one of them). Very few roms are installed using Odin.

Open Odin, uncheck everything except f reset time. Flash TWRP. When you see the word "reset" in the status window, remove USB cable from the phone, remove battery, replace battery, use buttons to boot into recovery.
Thnx for reply.before I saw your reply,I tried the rashr app from playstore.it worked first try.i had tried goomanager,quick boot and some of the other apps with no luck.
Thnx again.now I can flash a more current rom.

Stuck on Samsung logo and no recovery

Hi,
My friend's note 2 got stuck on Samsung logo boot screen and whenever I access the recovery, it loads that android robot logo for a second and then restarts. I still have access to download mode, I have tried flashing a stock 4.3 rom, CWM and Philz recoveries with Odin but still same problem exists. I flashing using PDA button, should I try the bootloader or something?
The phone was on stock rom but she doesn't know the exact version and I assume it was on a 4.1.x rom.
Any help?
Thanks

Here is what you do,go into ODIN mode and get the .tar.md5 of philz touch 6.19 or twrp 2.6.3.2 flash it via odin and uncheck "auto reboot" that you see on the left side of the ODIN app,let the recovery be flashed in ODIN and once you see in GREEN saying RECOVERY PASS exit odin and using the vol down +home + power button keep it pressed until you samsung note screen let go of all buttons as soon as you see it and you're recovery will load within 5-10 seconds (twrp loads faster than philz) if you keep the buttons even after seeing the samsung note 2 message then it won't go into recovery,btw your friend's phone has she upgraded to official 4.3? or still on 4.1.2?

I tried twrp now with unchecking "auto reboot" and still same problem, I think you meant volume up not down as down will get me into download mode again.
It loads till the android robot recovery logo with the moving hollow cube , it keeps moving for a second or something "loading" and then phone restarts by itself and gets stuck on samsung boot logo again.
She doesn't know which android version she was on, she in not that much into phones so probably with factory rom "4.1.2".
After all these successful flashes, Odin still says:
Custom binary download: No
Current binary: Samsung official
System binary: Official

I had this problem too after i clicked on factory reset in my rooted 4.3 n7100. Found the solution from a thread but i forgot where it was.
What I did was boot into recovery and perform "wipe data and cache". After wiping data, my note 2 are able to boot again...

Hope this work for you too
If there's a bootloop, you may have to reflash the firmware. Hopefully you have the file on the external SD.
Try to reinstall twrp or PhilZ, wipe data, cache and dalvik cache and reflash the Rom anew.
Also check before whether you have the correct bootloader for the Rom you want to install! (e.g. MJ5 or else).
Greets and good luck!

Try mskips toolkit from skipsoft.net. There is a thread on here for it but it's closed because of Microsoft signatures. It has a recovery package. You may lose your data but it will fix the phone.

U said u flashed 4.3 in her phone isnt....
Just give it a try these steps..(warraty may void)..
1.Flash stock 4.3 rom once again into phone.. After reeboting remove battery.. Then put it back.. go into download mode
2.flash CF-Autoroot with odin (dont forgot to chek reeboot on odin). .
after reboot cf-autoroot autimatically starts its rooting process...(if it starts u won half the way)
If u have luck it will reboot into system..(wait for 5 mins in boot screen)
3.If it doesnt... try flash philz touch using odin into phone..
In most cases philz touch flashed after cf autroot fites the custom recovery... .
sometimes knox enabled bootloader wont fire custom recoveries instead it fires stock recoveries

RECOVERY BOOTING....
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Set Warranty Bit : recovery
Can anyone please help me?
Phone was on 4.3
I can also still go to Download mode but cannot boot into android or into a recovery it just boots to those 3 lines above.

The same thing happen to me when I tried installing clockwork mod recovery and twrp recovery. I had to go to the website sammobile.com and download the original firmware MD5 file (2,218,421kb) put the phone in download mode and re flash the whole thing and start over. I still can't get a custom recovery to work. Can anyone shed light on this? Thanks
Reflash the recovery.
Mine shows the same, pauses and then boots into the recovery (TWRP in my case).

I downloaded the auto-root files, open Odin, put the CF-Auto root.tar.md5 in the PDA section of Odin and clicked start.
when it was done my phone rebooted into a screen with 3 lines on top saying

RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Set Warranty Bit : recovery

Download philz recovery and flash with ODIN. The warning about recovery is normal once you have a custom recovery installed.
This thread should help you. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2672393

Thanks for putting on the right path.
Thanks to everyone who helped me out
I would highly suggest twrp 2.7. Less compatibility issues. Its more than just a personal preference thing.

Today a miracle occurred.
I have a n900-p Sprint that was rooted months ago and today I stupidly was messing with ROM manager and hit "reboot into recovery"
My phone went in to a boot loop with this "recovery is not seandroid enforcing" message right before bed time and I was in boot loop hell.
Some quick googling brought me here and gratefully I used some of your info to save myself on first try.
Step-by-step for any Googlers passing through:
1. Download Odin and your stock android rom (by pure dumb luck I remembered the last three letters from when I was screwing around on the settings screen earlier in the day.
2. Run As Administrator Odin and put your phone in download mode (pull battery, wait ten seconds, hold down VOL down + Power + front key)
3. Plug in your busted phone
4. Hit AP button in Odin and find your stock android rom you d/l earlier
5. after you get a blue box under ID:COM in Odin, hit start
6. pray
7. boom, when its done everything is back to normal.
If a monkey as dumb as me can pull it off, so can you. Good luck internet strangers.

My phone on bootloop, and Odin is not working.

Hello. I'm not a developer or anything, but I do think that I know some things about technology. I have been trying to fix my GN2, AT&T. I have rooted it, and I did something bad, and now I don't even have access to recovery. Sorry if this question was posted some where else, but trust me. I've searched everywhere to find a way to fix my phone. Oh, and I do have access to download mode. Well, I did saw on a other post that you have to flash a ROM, via Odin to fix this. It did not work. It's my first time using Odin, but I put the .tar file in to the PDA section, and clicked start. (Of course with my phone plugged in to my laptop on download mode). After like 30 minutes, it failed. I tried some other USB ports, but it did not help. Please help me. I don't know what to do.

Ok, so I tried it. It successfully flashed the recovery. But when I went into the recovery, (Or tried to) it only showed some home, back, etc. buttons at the bottom of the screen. After that, it went back to the boot loop. Now I'm trying to flash a rom, see what happens. Please tell me if I did something wrong, or any tips would be appreciated.

So what version of firmware was your phone on before you whorked it up?
Need more if to figure out how to fix it.
If you were on 4.3 you should be able to do this

No worries. Did you take a 4.3 backup before flashing 4.4.2 ?
If not, just ODIN back to 4.1.1 LJ2 like in Post #1. Then flash a custom recovery and you can then flash one of the 4.3 ROMS.
Oh look here's one ...:laugh:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2704375
Flash the 1.75 version then scroll down and do the 2.0 Update.
You can do that after completing Post #2 and following these steps under Option #2 in Post #3
OPTION 2:
You will need to flash a custom recovery. I'm detailing a TeamWin Recovery Project (TWRP) install
Here is an explanation of TWRP and how to use it to flash the [ROM][4.3][Dec-2013] AT&T I317-UCUBMK6/MJ4 *Stock* Rooted

Here are other ways to install a custom recovery on your Android phone
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/...-phone-device/
Also by Haroon Q Raja
INSTALLING TWRP 2.6.3.1
- Run Odin3 v3.07.exe
Download Link http://www.mediafire.com/download/772dlmuaxfgm0x2/Odin307.zip
- Put your Note 2 in Download Mode
Entering download mode is very simple. First you will need to turn off your device. Once it’s off, you need to press this button combination: volume down, power button and home button. Keep them pressed until the download mode shows up. Once you’re there, you will be required to press volume up to enter the download mode or volume down to cancel and reboot the device.
Plug into a RELIABLE usb port and a RELIABLE usb cable (preferably the white Samsung cable) and wait for it to show up in Odin (COM5 or something like that)
- Click the PDA slot in Odin and locate the openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-t0lteatt.img.tar that you downloaded.
The filename that goes into the PDA Slot is openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-t0lteatt.img.tar
MAKE SURE IN THE OPTION AREA ONLY AUTO REBOOT AND F.RESET TIME ARE CHECKED!!!
- Click START and wait. It will complete and reboot.
