[Q] No Rom - Help! - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
First of all I must say that I am a complete noob at dealing woth custom roms and all that.
A while ago I rooted my Samsung Galaxy Nexus, I don`t remember exactly how I did it, and I did not take any backups. Yesterday I managed to delete my rom on the phone, so now I cant get past the samsung logo on startup. I have tried to go into recovery mode, but the problem is that I dont have a rom or backup on my phone so I cant do anything. I have tried to plug my phone into my computer to transfer a rom over as a .zip file, but my computer cant access my phone. I am very frustrated since I cant use my phone now .__. Does anyone know how to fix this? I am sorry if my description is poorly, but I cant think of any other way to put it.
Thanks in advanced for any help!

1. You're in the wrong forum!!!! This is for the Galaxy SIV, not the Galaxy Nexus
2. Try to mount your sd/internal memory in recovery to transfer a new rom

First thing, wrong section to be posting this. Second, you should read up long and hard before trying stuff you don't know about. Third, it's almost impossible to brick your nexus 7 because you can usually recover any android device through fastboot.

first off use this toolkit to fix your tablet. This toolkit has everything you need.
With the above program you can insure that your rooted and unlocked. And use TRWP not CWM as your recovery.
P.S. do you know how to get into fastboot mode?
hold volume down and power it on, when it comes up you'll know. use the volume to select which mode.
i Try it
Good lord. Please stop modding your device.
Hey guys, I'm having the same problem with OP, my problem now is it return to the stage before it flash after it flashed. Which means that it shows that it is successfully flashing the stock rom, but when it reboots, it didn't. It goes back to the stage where the rom was before it was flashed. Anybody help please?
I know it can be irritating, but I wish the indignation could be dialed back around here.
I have seen the spam from this poster, yes he should quit the over posting. But to tell someone just to go away and stop, well, I feel differently.
Stay, learn. But research first, you know? And post once then wait for a reply.
As you can see, your current tactics are just making the natives restless.
Being an ESL noob isn't a crime, maybe this person will end up developing the ROM you run next year.
I thought Linux was some sort of specialized hardware earlier in this calender year.

How to do a proper EFS (imei) backup on the 9505?

Hey fellas, I just bought my S4 yesterday and rooted it as soon as I got home. I want to flash another ROM to it, but I am afraid the imei might disappear etc.
I have searched the forum but not found a really good answer. Some people claim you only have to copy the EFS folder in root explorer and save it on your SD-card. Some people say you have to do this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41559366&postcount=2
That didn't work on my i9505 (rooted with CF-auto-root).
So, how do I properly take a backup of the EFS and IMEI stuff before I start playing around with ROMs etc?

2nd hand phone - almost blank screen after booting & selecting language

Apparently the owner ran into an issue after trying to update to kit Kat with Odin. I presume he tried to flash the stock firmware since be doesnt know what root means. He says it boots up fine and you manage to get into the select language screen. But afterwards you get a sparse black screen.

Sounds fixable. I should be able Odin another rom and flash cwm, root it and custom rom etc right?

Looks like it's running acustom ROM at the moment.
If the owner knows how to flash firmware on a phone, why hasn't he fixed it himself?

Um. The screenshot is of my phone showing his screenshot on gumtree.
This is his screenshot
I get what you mean though. Isn't Odin only used by users who know? Since normal users would perhaps use kies? Lol
Sent from my Galaxy S3
Sigh. Bought the phone, for 200 though. I flashed a stock firmware via Odin. Still same screen as above. Sigh. I tried rooting it and getting Philz touch on it. Touch input does not seem to work. Loaded aosp roms and kernels onto the phone. Flashed it via Philz recovery. Gives me bootloops.
Ideas?
Sent from my Galaxy S3
Managed to somehow install a aosp rom. Touch input doesn't work? Wtf? How do I fix it? Screen lights up fine so what's the issue?
Managed to get it linked to adb somehow. Any way I can fix the touch issue?

same problem!!
bro any solution u found?? cuz i am having same problem..stuck after selecting language..

I know, i have done that but wont work
Anyone?
I used my computer to unzip then I put it on the sd card without any problem with the given password... Maybe it's just the phone software that is glitchy ? or just the file that is indeed corrupted ? Also really use a computer, because you will have to move the files and the folders anyway...

Apologies for the late reply. There's a specific forum for your your device so I requested this thread to be moved there. All Galaxy Grand Prime queries belong there. Good luck :good:

Turn your phone off
Hold Volume Down + Home and Power, does the device boot into download mode?
If so you can reflash your stock rom with ODIN or KEIS, that should solve the bootloop issue and allow you to accesss your developer settings.
If you need help or instructions with flashing, leave a reply and I'll write them up for you.
