Hi Guys!
I got a classic Samsung Galaxy S i9000 and i used to mess with the roms and Kernel, however ... I've recently upgraded to Samsung Galaxy SIII and i decided to be a good brother and pass my old i9000 to my sister ... However, before i can , i need to fix this !
Is there a way to make the i9000 completely stock again? at this point the CWM is still installed even after factory resetting the device..
It's been quite a long time since i messed with it and i dont trust my own knowledge anymore so i figured i'd post a message.
If there is a quickfix for the Wifi, that will do too :highfive:
Thanks guys !
- Patrick

Hi guys,
I have installed Cyanogenmod but now I don't really like it on my s4 and I was wondering if there is anyway for me to get back the stock rom when I first got the device. I have been searching everywhere online for a solution but I can't seem to find anything.
Thanks

Hi XDAians.
Guys i own a Samsung galaxy S4-I9505 and few months ago i tried root it and some how i did it successfully and later i unrooted it again i am using back the same stupid touchwiz but the problem i am facing is,
1.My phone doesnt gets automatic updates.(i have to do it manually by downloading firmware from samfirmware and then installing it through Odin)
2.Knox cant be installed.
3.The camera app sucks to the coreeeee auto focus sucks every time i get a blued image. out of 5 i only get one clear image
3.After my 4.4.2 update, i cant hide apps. And the touchwiz is so much bad compared to 4.3 .
So my question is is there any way i can fix those above problems?
Now i am willing to root it back again hence i wanted to know which custom rom comes with all the system apps and software(such as wifi direct etc etc) pre installed as touchwiz and which lets me free do play with it!!!
last time i installed CM i didnt have wifi at all and it was really a mess to get that (actually i didnt ) so unfortunately had to get back to touchwiz .
Guys please link me to full root tutorials and how to install custom rom too.

If Samsung did make an update for your phone(since it isn't rooted) it would've come via OTA to you. So it seems that Samsung didn't care to update your phone so I'm sorry but your out of luck. There is no way to update your phone officially.So the final option is to flash a custom ROM for your device which is based on a higher android version than yours preferably 4.4 or more as you stated, try googling around the internet I'm sure you'll find a solution. But be advised it comes with risks. I rooted my device but I have never flashed a custom ROM for it. But if your phone is rooted, you'll find numerous ways to customize and theme your device to match your desired android version. I was able to theme one of my Samsung devices running 4.4.2 to nearly match android marshmallow 6.0.1.......Don't give up!! There's a lot you can do to make your outdated android look totally awesome and unique

Is your watch using Bluetooth for the connection? Our group has created a CM11 (4.4.4 kitkat) build, but it doesn't have working bluetooth yet.
Be sure to check it. We will fix the bluetooth.
Thanks to you,
Ok, but my watch use Bluetooth and also for my car.
Juste to know, where can I find the post to download CM1 when there will be one update?

The red exclamation mark is always there. What recovery did you flash? Because if it stays on that screen, but you hold the button combination, that probably means that you flashed a incompatible recovery.
Hi all,
I've recently been gifted the note 3 n900 and rooted it. I also installed TWRP and CWM as well, and when i go to install a ROM, it does say successfully and then at reboot, it shows the samsung galaxy note 3 screen, after that it goes blank. I've to do a battery pull to get it back and then restore a backup. I've tried many ROMs and also did rooting again, still nothing.
I've been using the galaxy s4 i9500 for about 2 years now and that is rooted and i've been flashing roms on it all year long with no problem. I'm just not sure what's going with this.
I'm currently on 4.4.2 official stock as I can't do much. Lollipop has not yet come to my region i think.
Any help would be widely appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Same Issue here but I am even not getting a samsung logo or a custom rom logo.

Hi
I had this problem for a couple of days, I found out that I flashed a incompatible rom via Odin. Can you can go into fast boot mode and tell me what it says at the top? Mine said " Couldn't do normal boot " which means the rom I flashed was not supported for my device. I went to the Samsung website to download a rom that was compatible with my device, I flashed it via Odin and it worked.
Thanks
I Just got my error fixed. U need to flash your bootloader via odin

I found that flashing the Stock Lollipop Rom worked, just as mentioned above by the above post. Yes, just by updating the bootloader i think it works. I've done it by getting the Russian stock rom from sammobile (even though i'm not in Russia), works like a charm. Really love the new feel to the note 3 n900. Just need to find a way to get permissive kernel now and ites perfect.
wassup guys i recently joined because my s4 took a dump. I need help reinstalling the original OS for my s4 because its stuck on the boot. ive done research but theres wayyy to much things going on to mod this download that and its leading me nowhere. I just want my phone to work properly again, with 4.4.2 or the newest version there is.

You can find all the info you need in this post.
Don't know what your firmware is but the oldest base you can go is NB1 (4.4.2).
Root the phone with towel root.
Install either flash fire or safestrap and flash the desire lollipop rom.
Hello! I don't want to start a new thread just yet, but I'm also stuck in a bootloop after a mishap during a manual update. Is it possible to recover any of the internal files when recovering the phone, or is it impossible? Honestly, I just want the files off of my phone more than anything else. There are a lot of memories there that I would love to save...I know, I know, I should have backed up those files, but that chance is gone now. :crying:
