I take it you fixed this



TWEAKED 2.0 ELEMENT V3.0 NOTE 3

THOUGHT I DID BUT NO.. I am able to some times get into the downloading mode by shorting a couple of pins in the phone with the back cover off.. i think it was hit and miss and im not 2 sure of what i was doing..
I followed the sdcard pin short method but it doesnt work every time..

but now im stuck with this constant rebooting..

I think you have the wrong recovery. Your screen shows you have custom. You need to Odin flash either twrp or cwm philzs version

well i would give that ago if i could get to the downloading screen.. what you see in the(crappy) image is all i get.. it flashes that for a second or two and shuts off and does it again and it never just goes into recovery or downloading..

the blue words say - Recovery booting
the red words say- recovery is not seandroid enforcing
the yellow words say- set warranty bit: recovery

Pull the battery for a min. Then install. Hold power home and volume down at same time and ur in download mode

Also how did you root. All the steps. What ROM did you flash what was you using before. What boot loader ?
