READ the instructions word for word and you will use ODIN a couple times to achieve this.I don't understand installing safe strap . k its on my phone I install it. But how do you install the recovery ? Its a root app and I have no root yet. I've flashed and rooted every phone I've ever had so? Am I supposed just install the app and move on to the next step ( stuck at install recovery ) ? Do I just insall the app then move on the the next step ? Thank you .

It sounds like you left out the "togetbooting" Odin portion. OR swapped the "togetbooting" with "togetsafestrap" files/steps by mistake. I did it the first time long ago (didn't finish basically) and it would boot with dark screen but wasn't bricked per se. I restored it back to stock and re-did the entire process and was up and running in an hour.I had problems yesterday. I had my Note 3 replaced under warranty 2 months ago and hadn't bothered to root the new one until now. So I went from JB straight to this rom. I have rooted and flashed at least 500 times and I followed every instruction to the letter and my phone still soft bricked. So I went back to square one and downloaded everything again after getting back to stock jb. This time it worked great So far I'm really happy with this rom.
