I have been running AOKP on my Fascinate for a while now, but something wierd is going on with the device. After about a week of running AOKP (I tried the Hacksung ICS builds as well), the Fascinate begins to bootloop, so I have to go through and ODIN (cannot wipe and reflash because it continues to bootloop after wipe and reflash) then flash AOKP again. The process repeats itself after roughly a week of use.
I went back and Odin'ed to 2.3.5, but ever since then, I have been unable to install a working recovery on my device. I can flash the recovery fine (Voodoo, and CWM fixed for CM7), but when it boots up, and I try to flash a file, the screen goes black for a minute, then goes back to the recovery menu, like it is rebooting recovery. I've tried Heimdall and Odin.
Anyone got any tips? Am I just forgetting something?

in odin did you use the atlas.pit repartition file when you flashed back to stock?
if not then try that. also, which CWM are you trying to flash?
I know my fassy had problems with certain versions, but a 2.5.x version always worked for me no matter what happened to my phone.
This guide always worked for me.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1238070
Alright... where to begin? Lets start at what happened around yesterday. Prior to the whole weekend, I had CyanogenMod 10.1 installed on my rooted S4. Come Friday, I start to miss some of the stock Samsung features such as Air Gestures, Smart Stay, the stock Samsung camera, and all that. So, I install WanamLite (a custom rom) on my phone. It's good and all but for some reason, the Smart Stay isn't working. To fix this, I go online and start digging; I find people saying "yo, revert back to the original firmware and re-install the Rom, that should fix your LTE problem." I think to myself, "maybe this could help me too." And that's exactly what I do. I go online to SamMobile and download this ROM (http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/?page=1&model=SGH-M919V&pcode=0#firmware). It installs with Odin and I was able to get back to the Stock Samsung firmware. I then proceed with my plan and install WanamLite; that also worked. So I'm all happy and stuff 'cause Smart Stay finally works but, shortly after fiddling with the re-stocked device, I get bored again. So, I start searching the forums for another rom to replace WanamLite (it was a good rom, but I wanted to try something else before settling down on it).
I find this ROM in the XDA-Developers S4 forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2303239. I try installing it; it works fine. But then, I notice that half my SD card is used up. So, I go into TWRP and click on Format Data (I'm not too sure about the name, I had CWM prior to the re-installation of Samsung stock firmware). After resetting the Data, I boot back into the phone and notice that the default layout is Easy Mode. (On the bright side, I freed 4 GB from my SD card). Easy Mode's incredibly annoying, so I wrestle with the phone for a while to change the launcher to Nova launcher, but to no avail. In the end, I decide to reflash the FoxHound ROM. I place the rom on my phone and boot into TWRP. That's where the problem comes. I selected: wipe cache, wipe delvic cache, wipe data. Then I wiped the cache and data, flashed the rom and, after that is when the phone started refusing boot up. From then on, it just displayed Samsung Galaxy S4 logo on the screen whenever I tried to start it.
What I tried to fix the issue: Re-installing the stock samsung firmware. (I think I ended up screwing up the phone even more with this. Before, I had TWRP installed but I couldn't boot into it, now I don't have any custom recovery installed and I still can't boot into the phone).
I can access the Download Mode and use Odin. I cannot boot into the recovery. When I hold Volume Up + Power + Home, it just says recovery in blue above the logo, and then, the phone reboots.
So, any ideas on how to fix it?
TL;DR: Tried installing FoxHound Rom. I wiped Delvic Cache, Cache, and Data, and after flashing the rom, the phone refused to boot up; it gets stuck on the Samsung logo. Before flashing, I did Format Data. After being unable to boot into the phone, I tried to flash the Stock Samsung Firmware on my S4. Nothing worked. Any ideas on how I should proceed?

Try using Odin mode to install Stock Samsung Firmware...
If it doesn't work,
Install Samsung Kies, put Phone into Odin mode, connect the USB and let KIES reinstall the whole firmware... Go to "Tools" -> "Emergency Firmware Recovery"

I've already tried flashing the Stock Samsung Firmware using Odin, it didn't work. Also, I'm having no luck with Kies; it won't connect. Any other suggestions? :/
EDIT 1: Okay, so here's the deal right now: I was able to flash TWRP using ODIN. This granted me access to my recovery, somehow. So right now, I have the FoxHound_GearEngine0.2 ROM installation files on my SD card and I am booted into the recovery. What should I do? Should I try flashing again? For now, I'll just wait for a response.
EDIT 2: Out of curiosity and impatience, I tried flashing FoxHound but got an error:
Updating Partition Details
E: unable to mount data
E: unable to mount internal storage
TWRP v. 2.5.0.3
Go into the advanced menu in TWRP and try to mount data / internal storage. If you can't, then you're back to odin unless someone can find out something else

I tried to; it didn't work. I also tried clockworkmod recovery. That recovery said it said that the data was already mounted. For some reason, now the phone is stuck in a bootloop. On the bright side, I can freely access my recovery (although I can't do much in it). Should I try flashing other stock roms?
EDIT: Flashing the stock rom brought it back to the state it was in earlier. So now, it just hangs on the Samsung Galaxy S4 screen and no longer reboots continuously. I'm thinking of downloading other stock roms and flashing those.
UNBRICKED

Alright, after struggling around with the device, I was able to unbrick it. I downloaded the stock ROM from samfirmware and flashed it using odin. After flashing it, it would stay on the Samsung Galaxy S4 logo and that's it and I wasn't able to boot into the recovery either. So, I flashed TWRP using odin and download mode, and found I was able to boot into recovery again. Screwing around with the recovery, I couldn't manage to do much so I decided to re-flash the stock firmware. After re-flashing, I had the same problem. This time, I tried accessing the stock recovery. I got access, which was something I couldn't get before. After getting access, I did Factory Reset/Data (it was something along those lines) and did a wipe cache. After wiping cache, the phone rebooted and, much to my delight, it was unbricked. After going through this, I think I might just like chill for like a month, or a year now with stock... .__.
Hahah nice job

Next time don't wipe data in custom recovery because it will corrupt your data which would most probably end with not booting past the Samsung logo, if you want to wipe in a custom recovery for now you have to manually wipe system, cache and dalvik cache located in mounts in cwm recovery (not sure where to find it in twrp).
You should read a little before messing with things in recovery.
Ahahah that's funny because something similar happened to me. And I was going to suggest doing a factory reset via recovery because that's how I resolved my problem, then I see you did just that! (Y)

I dunno what went wrong here...
1) I have GT-I9505 (SSN: -I9505GSMH). I installed Galaxy S4 toolkit
2) Reboot into download mode. Used toolkit/Odin to root phone. Boots up. See SU.
3) Reboot into download mode. Used toolkit/Odin. Flashed TWRP Recovery
4) Phone boots up normal. Reboot into TWRP recovery. Did a factory Reset. Format.
5) Installed Zip (Latest Omega 9.0 ROM), unchecked the things I didn't want to install. Completed install, no errors reported. Rebooted.
6) Phone stuck on Samsung boot screen. I left it overnight thinking sometimes it may take 15 mins to boot system after new install.
7) Woke up, battery dead. Tried to charge phone. No charging indicators when plugged in. With whatever juice I had left I booted into TWRP recovery, it starts to charge again as I see the % batter increase after 5 mins.
-=-=-=-=- Did the Following to try to repair
a) Reinstalled Omega, this time leaving alll options on. Rebooted, stuck in Samsung boot
b) Flashed Phil CWM touch recovery, did complete wipe to install new ROM. Rebooted into Phil recovery. Flashed OMEGA. Reboot, stuck in Samsung boot.
c) Rebooted into Phil recovery, installed echo ROM, rebooted. Black screen. Rebooted into Phil. This time cannot get into recovery.
d) Started panicking, used Odin flashed TWRP. Would not flash. Something displayed about PIT error. Flashed Phil again. Reboot into recovery, WORKS! (recovery only). Went back into Download mode flashed TWRP. Rebooted, also WORKS!. Did a factory wipe. During wipe there was an error. Format, factory reset, error during wipe. Flashed OMEGA. Reboot. Stuck on samsung boot loop.
e) Downloaded official Samsung kernal for i9505 thinking it was the full flash rom. Flashed with ODIN (hoping to put everything back to factory). Completed flash, phone boots. I get OMEGA ANIMATION!!! Waited for 15 mins. Stuck on Animation. Reflashed TWRP. Rebooted, installed OMEGA...again. Stuck on samsung boot screen.
-=-=-= Kinda frustrated. What did I do wrong in the beginning?
There are so many official roms for the S4 based on region. What can I do to put it back to factory again? I purchased phone in Australia @ Samsung store. I figured download the Australia ROM but there are like 5 of them 4 being network branded roms I think. THe other one XSA is unbranded?
I tried searching for help but so far nothing works.
omega ROM or any other custom ROM uses single CSC so before booting into system you must boot into stock recovery to apply CSC of that ROM, download stock recovery of that firmware the ROM was built from
after applying CSC it will work if not flash Omega 9.0 again , it will work :good::good:

Thanks for responding
So I take it when I did the full factory wipe and FORMAT the formatting part erased the CSC?
The steps are:
1) Find stock recovery of the original ROM OMEGA was built on. Use odin, flash that specific recovery. ( I might as well do a complete flash of the original stock firmware)
2) Use odin, replace recovery with TWRP, flash Omega this time no formatting
Reboot should be ok?

first use CWM or TWRP or whatever you want and format everthing
flash a fresh firmware(latest i prefer)
then flash stock recovery via odin of the built version what v9 was used, simply reboot to recovery and it will say MULTI CSC APPLIED from fresh frimware you used
then flash TWRP/CWM and flash v9
again simply reboot to recovery and it will say MULTI CSC APPLIED from V9
it will reboot, you must need to apply CSC to boot your phone
I can confirm this!
I was trying to flash Omega 9 on top of jamal's 4.3 and my phone always booted to recovery. So I restored my stock touchwiz (no custom recovery or even root) nandroid backup and applied Omega 9: it worked!

problem
I need help. I am on stock build i9505XXUBMG5. then I rooted it using CF-autoroot. and i used the 1.85 version of ODIN. (Does the version of ODIN affect how the phone is rooted?) Anyways, After that, it is rooted. then after some time, my Wifi is not working or not turning on. I checked google and found the *#0011# method and turned off the Wifi power saving. Then, at first, it worked. After a while, the problem insists. but randomly turns on. I observed that in the *#0011# -> wifi window, the state is power off. but when it is completely not turning on, the state is now disconnected. How can I fix this?
I tried flashing Omega ROM, because there was a wifi fix on that ROM. But when I finished flashing it and continue to reboot, it's stuck on the boot animation. It is not even the Omega robot animation, just the original animation. (Another problem) i tried wiping cache, delvik cache and data but nothing happens.

Do you have an IMEI showing on your phone? What recovery did you use to flash Omega?
It matters, because some recoveries will screw it up.
Do you try to install with Philz recovery?

At this point I think it is the CSC issue arnob-xperia mentioned.
This is how I corrected my issue.
1) Omega v10 uses newer base FW. In their description it tells u. (ex: ver 9 uses XUBMG5). Search on the i9505 forums here. I can't link for some reason I can't see any of the stickied threads, especially the one listing all avail stock firmwares.
Flash into Philz or TWRP do a complete wipe of everything including data. etc.
You MUST download the full firmware, Not just the smaller kernel and recovery or csc. The full stock fw is usually over 1.6 GB. Anything around that range and u got the right one for Odin flash with the md5. Use Odin to flash. I used 1.85 and it was fine.
2) Once done it will reboot and in theory you are stock everything. At this point, for me somehow the phone got stuck in fricken boot loop. I pulled out battery, reboot into stock recovery and made sure I saw the multicsc. Rebooted. Still boot loop.
After hours of doing all sorts of things and putting the phone aside for a day. Came back, flashed the stock fw again using Odin. Reboot into recovery. Check the multi csc. Reboot. Stuck in boot loop. Reboot to download mode. Then I decided to ROOT the phone for ****s and giggles. This worked!
Phone booted.
3) Now you have stock (for that specific OMEGA fw) w/ the matching CSC. From here on follow OMEGA flash instructions for the specific things it tells u to wipe. DO NOT DO A FULL WIPE/FORMAT like I did (what got me in the mess to begin with).
** For Galaxy S3s, S4s, for some reason I've always had problems with TWRP. I had better luck using Philz. Everyone's personal experience varies on this one.
** I think the problem has to do with the CSC which handles specific region phone and carrier modes. This doesn't mean that it won't work if you use a diff region CSC. Just that it has to match the FW base you are using otherwise you have all sorts of problems. After that you can go in android and setup your APNs etc if you have probs with data. I didn't have this problem and was testing using the UK fw base on AU network sim.
*** Why does Samsung make things so damn complicated. I remember way back in 2k3 using fricken ODIN (samsung flashing utitility) to flash **** and it was the same setup as now. This whole crap about CSC pairing is a bit annoying. It is bad enough there are 6+ variations of S4s lol...
Hope this helps.

I did flash the Omega v9.1 and applied the wifi fix but the wifi is still broken. I tried unrooting it by flashing the original rom and formatting the data but the wifi is still broken. I can't turn it on. Thanks for the instructions anyways. ))
no pit partition
also, when i tried to root it again, it fails and says there is no PIT partition..
Where is the csc in TWRP so I can so what ones on the phone..??
What stock firmware can I use for a Orange Network in the UK.
GT-i9505 stuck on boot when upgraded from omega v16 to v21
Hello guys,
Well, I followed all the instructions and flashed new bootloader and new modem and after that I installed omega v21 with Full swipe. After that I ended up stuck in boot animation. :s What to do? I already tried to re-flash modem and bootloader, updated CWM and tried to re-install that v21 and after that I flashed twrp over cwm and tried to re-install v21 but always I ended up stuck in that boot animation. :S All installs were successful, but it just wont boot.
What to do?
Hopefully you understand my problem.
Cheers from Finland!

EDIT:
Ok, I flashed omega rom v19 with full wipe and tried to boot. Didnt work, but then I installed Kies to my computer, opened Kies, Plugged USB in and started my phone and then Kaboom! It booted. What exactly happened there?

Hi, I am having the same problem. First I installed the new firmware (NA5) and modem, tested it with the Omega ROM v21 and boot caught on so now tested the rom Fox Hound 4.1 and am having the same problem.
Kies tested this option but have not had the same luck as you. = /
Anyone know the reason? The rom Google Edition Jamal runs on my phone.

I have a i9000 and i would like to install twrp so i can install a 7.0 rom but i dont know how to install twrp can someone tell me how?
I would also like to know this as well. I've tried CWM through odn but it's a zip so wont flash. I've tried it in stock recovery but obviously get the signature fail msg.
TWRP comes with the kernel and hence the ROM.
It gets automatically installed if you're on older BML/MTD device..
In which case you should have rebooted after acceptign wipe..
Ahh right, so I flash a new kernel to it and that comes with the recovery built in.
Do I flash the kernel from odin or stock recovery. Got the stuff to unbrick the phone if that happens, just wanted to know the right way before flashing stock rom back and starting again.

The kernel is flashed by the ROM zip... I dont remember if it automatically reboots to recovery or not..
However it does create a file in cache that makes it boot to recovery.. Since the /system is not yet installed.
You should flash the ROM after it boots to new recovery.. then install the zip file again..
All this is described in https://github.com/xc-racer99/android_device_samsung_aries-common/blob/aosp-7.1/updater.sh
I got there in the end.
I flashed CF-Root-XX_OXA_JW4-v4.4-CWM3RFS.tar with odin, then installed cm-10.2.0-galaxysmtd.zip which also updated my older CWM. It had a spam, so I wiped/factory/dalvik etc from the updated CWM and then reinstalled cm-10.2.0-galaxysmtd.zip - now running the rom just fine.
Will be trying out some more over next few days now I have a nandroid of CM10.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Thanks for suggestion. I am trying to format it. Hope it could be ok.
I flashed firmware with pit option to reformat all nand partitions to correct errors if it were there, but still not successes. The processes stay the same, flash then the phone restart to stock recovery then flashing something then crashed in the middle and finally went off.
I tried flash twrp and try to restore the phone by my stock rom backed up but the problem still there, the restoring breaked in the middle then turn off.
I guest i have some errors in the middle of the emmc so if the rom could be smaller then i can pass the problem.
Finally I unbricked the phone by flashing a smaller rom (an unoffical pie for trltedous) which only around 1gb zip. This time everything was passed then The phone boot in to the pie os.
After boot success, I tried to fullfil my phone by some data and magically pie full os can write full of my storage. I turn it of then use odin to flash stock firmware. This time everything ok.
From this case, I thing we should have a tiny flashable os to correct problem in emmc. As tiny as posible.
