Issues with TWRP, blinking TeamWin screen, no recovery??? - Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I went to flash a different ROM today and attempted to go in to TRWP Recovery, and all I get is a blinking TeamWin screen, it never actually goes in to recovery. So weird?? I tried to ODIN the TWRP tar, and still same crap, blinking TeamWin screen. Has anyone experienced this? I really don't want to start from scratch again. Thanks in advance for any help.

Wiped system, cant get to recovery

Hey all, i wiped my system in TWRP recovery and when i hold power, home, and vol down, i get to the TWRP splash screen but then i reboot. Any suggestions?
bump please help
So it will not boot into TWRP fully? How many times have you tried cuz if you rebooted accidentally after wiping system (I've done this), it takes a few tries.
Alternatively, you could Odin flash TWRP (file is in Open1your1eyes0 root thread) and try booting into TWRP then. This increments your flash counter.

No problem. You're saying its booting to the TWRP logo or booting to the Samsung logo? Just wanted to clarify.
Also, hold: power, home, and volume then once it boots release the power button. That seems to be the only way I can cold boot into recovery.

Yeah i hold home, power, and vol down, then it goes Samsung screen > Samsung Galaxy SIII screen > blue TWRP splash screen > reboot to system and freezes. And another thing, if i odin flash this TWRP, will it wipe internal storage by any chance? Its happened one too many times to me

Hmm, weird. What were you doing before which led to this?
Nope, it doesn't wipe internal storage. Just overwrites your recovery partition. When Odin reboots your phone, pull the battery then try booting straight to TWRP. If you still can't boot into recovery try the same steps but flash CWM, flash a rom, and then reinstall TWRP via GooManager.

Just flashed it and it still wouldn't fully boot TWRP. I'm about to try CWM now. What happened was i came from LiquidSmooth AOSP and I was ready to flash Hyperdrive Touchwiz so I wiped all the partitions and flashed the zip. The Aroma Installer froze before it started so i battery pulled and figured I'd retry. It wouldn't boot and now I'm where I am now.

twrp
You could look up twrp and see if its available for your phone. its much better than cwm . flashing that may solve your problem.
similar problem
I just flashed TPR with KT747 kernel (on Sprint GS3), ran into the issue a couple others had where it shuts off after boot animation and won't finish booting. I saw that the solution is wiping, clearing cache, reinstalling, clear cache again, boot. However, when I try to boot in recovery, it takes me to odin mode instead of cwm and the screen stays on "Downloading... Do not turn off target!!" So my 2 boot options at this point either freeze my phone or turn off before completing boot.
So I am unsure how to continue. Help would be greatly appreciated =)
EDIT: Ok, I think I solved my own problem. Sorry for the unnecessary post!

Constantly boots into bootloader

Hey guys, I think I made a fatal mistake. My battery was at 3%, and I attempted to flash Franco Kernel r25. The phone rebooted into a black screen. I did a hard reset, and it sent me to the bootloader. From there, I attempted to start, but it gets me a black screen again. I went into TWRP recovery to reboot and shutoff, but still doesn't work. Every hard reset brought up the bootloader, every start gives me a black screen.
Thanks
Flash Google factory images.

I had this problem once, the only way was to get into recovery mode then install the ROM again (better wipe before install)
it worked for me.
Wow, just flashed the r25 img, i guess the install didnt finish earlier. THANKS!!!!
You can also flash a backup

I can only access ODIN(Download) mode and even tried to flash different custom recovery files and it says Passed but still again getting the same TeamWin screen loading in recovery mode and crashes in the middle and then bootloop happens.

I was having issues at first.
Maybe give this a try and see if it works for you.
I had to install CWM via odin, and wait a good while for the "pass."
Then I had to make sure not to let it reboot on its own.
I powered off manually, and then booted into recovery like this:
1. Volume down and power on at the same time.
2. Immediate release power when you see anything pop up, but continue holding volume down.
3. Release vol down when you see the teamwin logo.
That got me passed the part where it would automatically bypass TWRP.
I then used the toolbox to do the rest including the "fix."
I had to manually boot into TWRP at first, even with the toolbox, but that was the issue I had, and how I got around it.
Philz Recovery works.

Probably, but that doesn't mean the issue was ever solved.
I'm having the EXACT same issue as OP... All of a sudden I got bootloop when starting the tablet normally, going to recovery only shows TeamWin logo briefly and tablet reboots, and download mode works (Odin detects the tablet) but it always says "DOWNLOADING... Do not turn off target.".
Already tried installing stock rom, Philz recovery, CWM Recovery, EFS Repair... Nothing worked.

If the TWRP screen is still there after you've flashed for example the stock ROM, than it's clear that your eMMC is locked.
In this case it need's to get replaced, I'm doing this weekly, so this problem is to solve.
