crisis avoided after small panic of having to start all over again after all my setup work :)

i will leave this up incase it happens to someone else

1. pull sd card
2. hold vol down, home power to enter "download mode"
3. hit cancel and it should fire up

i tried so many combinations until that worked

wish I'd known a few days ago....did the full ODIN wipe and restore method.

I hear the NC2/NC4 hybrid fixes this loop as well, if you installed it prior to pressing recovery....

Well good news is that if you stay up to date with stuff on here and have flashed the NC4 modem stuff in ODIN it fixes this issue and reboot to recovery works.

It is a frustrating moment though if it happens

I was stuck Boot Looping after using the safestrap "Reboot Recovery" option, it obviously does not work with my Note 3.....
Thanks for this solution!!!
