first of all sorry for my english im not native english
Hi after few search on both google and xda forum im a bit lost.
I have currently and s4 from Bell (sgh-i337m version) and i flash few custom rom and now i trying to get back to factory default.
and i mean for warrenty check.
- i have used lasted bell i337m firmware from sammobile and flashed it with odin
- Did a ch-autoroot for jfltecan from chainfire to root it
- Downloaded triangleway app to reset flash counter
but when i run triangle away app from app store it reboot to download mode instead of recovery as it should do.
so when i reboot the phone manualy it but in recovery with triangle away splash screen saying no triangle away reset data.
i press volume up anyway and it say reset sucessfull.
then i reboot and use full unroot from superSU and i use phone factory reset but phome still say from menu - status: Device status: Custom
Any idea of this ?
Used to own a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 for 5 month and did this procedure lot of time (like 30 time) and it alway worked like a charm but doesnt work now
I'm not sure triangle away works on this device... Lemme do some research.

yes just fresh downloaded from play store
Once triangle away sends you into download mode you have to hold the power button for 10 full seconds. Are you doing that?

Hello, at&t has pulled the update due to glitches. Some people reported that their phones wouldn't even turn on. Also you can't update your at&t galaxy s4 on Kies because at&t put a block on that... The reason they did that is so they can add all of their NSA crapware to your phone and lock it so you can't modify it as easy. If you really want 4.3 I would install a custom ROM. I'm still on 4.2.2 rooted. 4.3 isn't all that good anyway. Nothing new.

I did the same thing as you set it to 2015 and it let me look for updates, but it says update interrupted. Idk why but yeah. Maybe because I'm rooted idk. I wasn't updating anyway until a root method came out for mk2. Hopefully you can get it. If not take it to Best Buy and they can hook you up.

Hmm... That's weird. Have you tried clearing the cache?

i just checked mine and it still says i have to wait over 24hrs, so even tho my time and date are back to normal the update software still picks up when i fast forwarded my time/date. just a thought here, but i think the only way to reset that could be to flash back to stock with odin, but you would lose all data doing this. so its either probably doing that or keep trying to fast forward your time and checking.

Hi.
I was looking into the Safestrap method for Flashing a ROM on my ATT Galaxy S4 SGHI337. But my question is if that Safestrap method is only for the S4 active... If it is, is there any other method for safely flashing ROM to my MF3 basebamd version S4? PLEASE HELP
Have you even read the OP of ANY of the safestrap threads...and...do you even know which forum you are in?
Also, is your PC broke? Why is your font so large?

Figured it out. Thanks for the warm welcome.

Hello All,
So, I successfully installed safestrap on my rooted gs4 with MK2. I was able to install hyperdrive rls12 and was able to text and make calls. I tried fixing the wifi by flashing some modules and now I don't have any cellular data when booting back into the stock rom. baseband shows empty, no calls, texts etc.
I have no clue what to do and how I can fix it, nor how I managed to mess up the stock rom slot.
Please help.
Thanks

Do I have to do this from safestrap or can I do it while having the phone booted into a rom?
Use a root Explorer in the ROM to do it. It may or may not work. Some phones are iffy.

Hello, I know for a fact that there are other "help me! I bricked my note 3" threads out there, but I have concluded that I find myself in quite a specially convoluted situation.
All the following occurred with me coming from a stock 4.3 rooted rom.
My story begins when I attempted to flash Fre3 4.4.2 ROM using TWRP. The rom included the"beastmode" kernel. Well, after flashing I ended up stuck in the bootloader screen with a "Set warranty bit: kernel" error. Being such a huge noob as I am, I googled for a solution to this, and I ended up with a flashable .zip that was supposed to fix such kernel issue, upon inspection of the zip file I found a clean_efs.sh script. Then again, being such a noob I had no Idea what "efs" meant, and against my better judgement, I had flashed it anyway..
Long story short the previous made me end up with a bootloop, which prompted me to restore my nandroid from my stock 4.3 rom... At first It would give me an error regarding the MD5 checksums, it prompted me to disable md5 verification, which WAS disabled, yet the same error persisted..
As a last resort I tried to use ODIN 3.07 with the stock 4.3 release, it was flashed successfully, but as soon as it got to the "Sprint" bootlogo, it would reboot itself into an infinite loop.. Afterwards I tried to do a data/wipe/factory reset form the stock recovery which was done successfully. Afterwards the phone booted past the sprint logo and all i could see was: The status bar with the signal bars with a red cross, a completely black screen, and a dreaded "Process system is not responding" dialog. Tapping on "wait" or "stop" just closed the dialog and the phone rebooted regardless.
I am pretty much stuck at this point... Please I beseech whoever has solved such an issue to help me, I am not really able to afford another note 3, but I can afford to reward anyone that can help me solve this(that desperate I am:fingers-crossed...
And to make matters worse, I am getting the galaxy gear for Xmas....go figure..
P.S. I still have a NANDroid of my beloved 4.3 and it does have an EFS backup, I have no way of knowing if it is corrupted or not... Also I'll attach the "clean_efs" zip so you can tell me how a huge noob I am(not really just for reference)...
Are you on the 4.4 bootloader? It's needed to boot Touchwiz 4.4.
Flash a TW 4.4 ROM via Odin, wipe data and restore EFS.

The last (successful) ROM flash since this mess was literally years ago with my HTC supersonic, so sorry if i sound like a total noob but, can you elaborate? How do i find out what version of boot loader I am on? With flash a TW 4.4 ROM do you mean a recovery? I already odin'd the 4.4.2 stock wonder if the recovery would make a difference? Also since its a stock ROM need i not to be rooted for everything to work properly?
Sorry for the total noobness but i think that's the best way to approach it so not to get anything wrong..

It won't boot at all, i stopped and sought help after i flashed 4.4.2 with Odin since then it just stays at "booting recovery".. The phone WAS rooted on the stock 4.3 but now i posit it is not. It is the SPRINT variant (SM-900P). I made sure to flash the proper ROMs for the carrier but still ran into this mess..

Sounds good! Comforting to know that there ate folks out there willing to lend a hand.. I'll get Odin 3.09. That was also one of my major concerns, Odin. Since there are a whole bunch of contradictory threads that state that version x doesn't play well with my phone and vice versa.. Hope that it works..
Also i find that kies stuff weird, both kies 2 and 3 asked me for a serial number, i just do not know what is the exact version i need, but maybe I'll try again with a clear mind..with such a brick scare i couldn't think straight..

I understand your concern i bricked my vibrant long ago and i bricked another note 2 long ago so i learned when to be scared and when to be relaxed about it if the keys doesnt work now its probably since your phone wont boot normaly so it can't detect it properly thats why we gona use odin and flash the firmware on it and that will get you booted back up so then kies will see the phone and it will boot it to download mode on its own and do the update ,once thats done you can root it install custom recovery and such .

I really do not mind, whichever might render less issues is OK..as long as it can be rooted safely and supports xposed.. But is kies going to fix the efs? How will it do that? I thought imei/data in efs is unique..
It fixed mine i lost my whole efs folder and i went from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 via kies and when i rooted my phone i checked and there it was efs folder with everything in it.Im running 4.4.4 with xposed and blu x 2 theme made for this rom and i have zero issues ( knock on wood) lol

TWRP fail..
Funny, in the past I turned my SL101 into an expensive brick by using CWM...and now its the abslute opposite...I have Odin flashed every recovery herehttps://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/hltespr/and none detect the efs partiton on my phone....whenever I yap on "Restore" and choose my backup the log reads" E: Unable to locate partition by backup name: 'efs'
Its because it got corrupted ...how i got no clue mine did the same once u get phone up and running we will use keies to flash original unrooted to get you efs back than root etc
