Please help.
I'm stuck on bootloop after flashing stock XXUAME2 rom with Odin.
The reason is - I checked/enabled the "Nand Erase All" before flashing. I know, stupid. But what should I do now to unbrick it?
Well, firstly I successfully flashed stock ME2 over my MDM with Odin. But all my stuff was still there (apps, huge files and so on - which I already backed up on my pc) and my memory was almost full. So I wanted to clean everything before flashing TWRP and a custom rom. And then I checked the freaking Nand Erase.
Now, I tried to flash TWRP and do a factory reset/full wipe, but couldn't even enter into recovery mode (vol up+home+power) - it shows "GT-I9505 logo" with small blue text "recovery mode" on top of the screen and then it quickly returns to power off state (with battery charging animation).
The Download/Odin mode is working, thank God. But flashing a stock rom from Odin doesn't solve the problem of bootloop.
I've read that after a nand erase it is needed to flash a PIT file to fix it. Any suggestions where to download it? What version of a PIT file should i look for?
Thank you, guys in advance.
I dont think it will do the job.
I think that nand erase has wiped partitions data.
Any way try with pit. It is in my signature. (Choose right pit file)

Thank you, but flashing PIT didn't work - I made everything according your instructions. Still bootloop.
Maybe I need to reflash Bootloader/Phone/CSC?

U need someone to extract partitions for you to flash, except what is included in the stock firmware. Do you have a backup for efs partitions?
I have param partition fir i9505 to flash. I will attach it soon

go into recovery, if it is possible, wipe data and cache, then flash with odin the stock firmware in pda with the pit file in pit window. just check auto reboot, f.reset and re-partition. when it say "pass" remove battery, re-insert it, go to recovery, wipe data and cache reboot.
im afraid that ticking "nand erase all" in odin, usually lead to a hard brick!

if it didnt work, unzip attached file and flash "param_I9505.tar" in pda. (without pit file)(dont tick re-partition)

Duuude! It worked!!!!
Even without flashing param partition. Just the first step:
go into recovery (I flashed CWM with Odin), if it is possible, wipe data and cache, then flash with odin the stock firmware in pda with the pit file in pit window. just check auto reboot, f.reset and re-partition. (then it went into bootloop as usual and after a moment Odin said "pass") when it say "pass" remove battery, re-insert it, go to recovery (the recovery at that moment returned to stock), wipe data and cache reboot.

glad to hear that....
Never and Ever tick "NAND ERASE ALL" in odin
next time, if you want to erase data, do it from recovery.

Sure! And for the next time what exactly should I pick from recovery to erase everything? apart from wipe data/cashe/factory reset? There are also some format options in advanced menu (format system, data, cashe, dalvik cashe and so on). Or I should not touch anything there anymore? )))

no need for format system..
if you format system, then it must be a ready custom rom in your sd card to flash via cwm. or you must flash stock via odin.
wiping data and cache and dalvik is enough
Thanks very much everyone who partisipated in this thread! You saved me a lot of time and a lot of effort! I was stuck in the boot screen because i formated the whole system. I tried that solution and worked for me! Thanks very very much!

you dont need param file just redo this:
go into recovery, if it is possible, wipe data and cache, then flash with odin the stock firmware in pda with the pit file in pit window. just check auto reboot, f.reset and re-partition. when it says "pass" remove battery, re-insert it, go to recovery, wipe data and cache reboot.

if stock recovery didnt work at first, flash any custom recovery and make the wipe.
it is important to use pit file with the firmware.

I used the DI01 restore files from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=782204
and the .pit file from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878620
1. I first flashed the System partition with the Re-Partition option checked and the .pit file.
2. The I flashed the kernel (no pit or re-partition)
3. Finally I flashed the modem (again, no pit or re-partition)
Odin reports all three completed sucessfully, but when I power the phone on, I get and endless loop into Stock Recovery.
HALP?
first off, why did you check the re-partition? Odin is to be used without touchiong anything except pda and start (at least for fascinate)
Try using Odin for DL09 full package and you wont have to flash anything but one thing.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=911677
I used the re-partition option because I was having issues with DBDATA partition corruption and flashing back to DI01 didn't fix it.
Flashing DL09 now....
DL09 flashed successfully, still goes straight to Stock Recovery.

That's the one I'm using.
you try a different sd card yet?
I have not tried a different SD card. from what I'm seeing it doesn't seem to be the culprit. Looks like the fact it can't mount the DBDATA partition is holding things up.
I'm restoring using Andrenalyn's DI01 package.
EDIT: Full DI01 package failed at movinand.bin
It's Alive!!
I was able to flash the full DI01 package using Heimdall, excluding the movinand.bin portion.
try eb01 heres a link.

awesome! hope your done sweating bullets...
Fingers crossed. We'll see if the original DBDATA partition corruption is still there. That's what cause this whole mess.
Just out of curiosity, why is the movinand.bin the only part that fails when I flash the DI01 package?
thanks everyone for your help!

try flashing jvu from samfirmware with odin3 v1.82 and pit512 with repartition
after you get PASS, restart the phone and wait until some processes will complete, the phone will automatically reboot, then take out & insert back the battery.
after that continue as usual with the flashing of custom kernel like semaphore 2.5.0.
now you'll be able to install custom roms

Guys, I was about to flash a new rom (Omega v2 for i9500) then I wiped the whole thing in CWM. But in addition to that I have formatted the system (mounts and format > format system), now device won't boot. I can get in Download Mode and Recovery mode but it just won't boot...
Now I am downloading a stock ROM from SamMobile; would it fix it if i flash it via Odin? And any suggestions?
Please tell me something because I am feeling really bad =/.

did you flash the rom after formatting system?

Hi, I am new on android world, and dont know if i did crap with my phone:
I had FoxHound rom with Adam Kernel and CWM. So, I decided to flash the "4.3" google version. Until there, its ok.
But, i downloaded a version of pre-rooted 4.2.2 google version, and wanted to flash it. And i had the stupid idea of formating ALL things on CWM Mount and Storage menu.
Then, my phone didnt started on custom recovery... so, i flashed Philz Touch. The phone now start on custom recovery, but i flashed 2 different roms, and it no boot... well, he boots, but keep on bootscreen and dont pass. What can i do, please? (Sorry for the english...)

I just tried this and it worked. You have to find stock firmware for your device
(1) Put into download mode then Odin stock firmware (uncheck everything)
(2) Unplug USB cable & pull battery
(3) Boot into Samsung recovery
(4) Factory Reset & wipe data
Before I tried to factory reset with TWRP or CWM and it didn't work. Try to factory reset with Samsung recovery instead

Hi XDA sorry to bother you but I really really really need your help because I am desperate ...
I am French but I speak a little English and I am your community for a long time!
Here I have a note 4 (N910F) and I was officially NK4. I wanted to install a custom rom but I had beug on official NK4, so I decide to make a clean reinstall before putting a custom rom!
The problem is that in order to do I put my note 4 in download mode and I opened odin then I checked auto reboot, re partition, f reset time and nand erase all. I put the PIT, BL, AP, CP and the SCC in the right boxes then I clicked on START and then restarts the mobile was stuck on the samsung logo and waited 15min .. Always blocked after 15 minutes so I extinguishes.
I tried other manipulation: I try to flash the rom 4 files with the pit but check the nand erase all but still stuck on the Samsung logo.
I try to flash the rom 4 file without the pit but still stuck on the Samsung logo.
I installed philz and restore a backup but always the same.
And I try to do a factory reset before installing the official NK4 and always the same.
I also found that when I do a factory reset I have two errors:
the first E: Error mouting / data!
the second E: Error mouting / sdcard / .android_secure!
Voila so I really need your help because no one can solve my problem: '(
Thank you in advance ..
Download new rom from sammobile, use odin and restart everything from scratch! Dont un-check or change Anything in odin, just start when you have chosen right file..!
Try To change file system of data And sdcard, like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=56956070
Maybe you can try this: http://www.phonandroid.com/forum/reinstallation-propre-du-note-4-sm-n910f-t110393.html
First I wanted to thank you for your help!
I finally managed to solve my problem!
I spent more than 7 hours on this problem to finally succeed!
I did a nand erase all with odin then directly flash the cfroot without turning it on after nand erase all. Then I was in the recovery then wipe and factory reset wipe Cache and then I restart my phone and it worked!
For without the flash cfroot it did not work!
it was really long to find this a bit weird solution!
Thank you for your help!
For future reference:
Wipe /data from stock recovery after flashing a PIT and ROM.
Flashing a PIT wipes all partitions on the phone, and Odin only flashes /system, leaving /data unformatted. Wiping /data from stock recovery fixes that.
