what did you do? im trying to use KIES but i dont have the serial.. can you msg me your serial so i can atleast get KIES to download the software? msg me
Kies won't work if u updated to 4.3. Kies 3 won't work either. If u soft bricked ur phone flash the cf auto root tar. It will fix ur error. We're just stuck with 4.3 for now.

kies wont do anything. After 4.3 update we can not downgrade. My issue is i cant boot into stock 4.3. I can only flash octos or other roms but with phone not working and problems as such.
ok somehow i fixed this. I followed the instructions using twrp recover. Only difference is that after i recovered modem and radio through custom twrp method, i used cf autoroot to get stock recovery back then used the update.zip posted in another forum, to update through sideload and it worked. Back in stock 4.3.

the 4.3 update.zip that got pulled out of someones phone before he fully updated from 4.2.2 to 4.3. You can find the zip file in the General section i think.
I was on stock 4.2.2 got the update and went to 4.3. Then i flashed a 4.3 tw kernel and everything got screwed. After that i went followed the instructions found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47113608#post47113608. First i recovered boot , then system , then modem then radio through twrp using the files found there. After that i booted used the cf auto root to go back to stock recovery. Phone was still doing the boot loop up to this point. Then i figured out that the backup was probably a 4.2.2 backup so i used adb sideload to install update.zip. After that i wipe data/factory reset and it booted just fine. Ok lost everything but phone works now like new.
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S4 ATT I337UCUAMDL
Model Number in settings on 4.4 ROM = GT-I9505G
As the title says, I installed dandroid's newest 4.4 ROM from WICKED v5 4.2.2 and lost root. So I attempted to update my CWM Recovery from Odus 1x to the newest using Odin which failed do to write protected I suppose all though others says that doesnt effect their installs.
Where I'm at:
Cannot boot into recovery, says booting recovery the just reboots and enters Dandroid's ROM w/o root.
I'm now lost and have been reading the forums for hours. Currently downloading STOCK Samsung firmware for my device I337UCUAMDL_I337ATTAMDL_ATT.zip
CASUAL failed.
What do I need to do to get back to WORKING custom recovery w/ rooted dandriod 4.4 kitkat rom. Should I use Odin and flash stock rom then motochopper to root and try to reinstall working CWM recovery?
Please advise best course of action. My phone had been working properly with every ROM I tried before update to 4.4 ROM and attempted CWM recovery update (thinking that would fix my root issue). Thanks all!
If you have a nandroid, and I hope you do, just restore that in your custom recovery. If you don't, then you're going to have to return to stock with odin
Tried motochopper on the phone as it sits and it fails as well.
I have a stock backup but the problem is I no longer have access to any recovery. Guess I'm just gonna have to flash the stock firmware with Odin when its finished downloading and start over.
Just finished Odin flash back to samsung factory firmware. Phone stuck at att world logo on bootup, still can't access recovery. Any ideas?

If you flashed Odin successfully you can get into recovery.
Finally got into recovery it rebooted 3 times but just holding the req. buttons finally got me in.
Back on factory firmware and rooted w/ cwm recovery all back in place properly worrking.
I would like to use the Dandroid 4.4 ROM with this device. When I install am I going to lose root again and if so, how I do I get it back on this device since the model in the settings is going to change from I337 to I9505G after installing this ROM?
Figured it all out last night, re-flashed Dandroid's latest ROM which still caused me to loose root, then flashed SuperSU 1.51 instead of 1.80 and regained root. All is right in the world now.

Hey, if you dont mind me asking where did you get the 1.51 zip to flash? I'm having a similar issues with same ROM where i lost root but have recovery access.
Thanks
Update: Found the file. Flashed it. Root is back. Have you let market update it automatically? If so did you lose root afterwords?
Hi everyone,
I hope someone can help me with this problem. Basically I was updating my phone to mk2 BTU via kies and it failed. Kies stopped recognising the phone and it kept going in to stock recovery.
I tried manually flashing stock mk2 via odin but I kept getting the same result.
Then I got fed up and I rooted (cf auto root) and installed TWRP and my phone booted in to a rooted mk2. My knox is now triggered which is a bit annoying but at least it works now.
The problem is if I try to flash stock rom via odin it still does the same thing boots in to stock recovery and then I have to root and install twrp again. I blame all this on KIES!
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks
Any ideas anyone?

Not clear here - by stock rom do you mean stock MK2 ROM (unrooted, same CSC as the rooted one that works)?
Have you also tried in Kies the special "emergency recovery mode" (under tools)?

Hi,
Yes thats right MK2 stock unrooted and same CSC. I tried KIES the first time with emergency recovery but it kept saying device unsupported, that's when i rooted it and installed TWRP and it worked. I don't understand it.
Hello guys, I'm trying to unlock my sprint S4 to use with metroPCS....I got the phone from a friend of mine because he switched to iphone. The phone is currently running the cm11 archerom rom with NAE baseband
What I've done so far was
- followed the international sim unlock guide and was able to downgrade my modem from NAE to MDC via odin running cm11.
- I couldn't get the phone to go into Diag mode to use the s4 unlocker program...I tried using scripts (Aosp script for diag mode) but the phone would not get recognized on my computer ( running windows 8) so the S4 unlock flasher couldn't detect the device.
- I tried to odin the phone back to stock samsung twz so that I could get into diag mode easier. I flashed stock MF9 rooted touchwiz rom via odin but it failed everytime. I was trying to flash the mdc baseband after so that I could use to unlocker program.
- The phone soft-bricked after that but I was able to fix it by flashing a custom recovery but my phone audio went out with DSPmanager crashing and music, audio not playing.
-I resolved that problem by flashing back the NAE modem, now everything is back to where I started from, I'm not sure where to go from now
What I might do next is, try to use cwm to flash back to stock samsung twz rom but I'm not sure which rom to flash in order for me to unlock my S4....
What do you guys think? Thanks for reading!
Odin full NAE. You cannot downgrade the bootloaders thus why you were not able to successfully Odin MF9 because you have a Knox boot loader.
I tried flashing the full NAE ROM via Odin....it almost went pass "system.IMG.ext4" in Odin and then it failed on write nand...
I flashed recorevry and now /data is not mounting. I flashed the achrom c11 ROM again but its not booting now, its stuck on the android screen (soft-bricked.)
What should I do next? Thanks for your help BTW
all.
I have an i9505 on 3 UK that has been rooted for over 6 months. I've been running the excellent TW based Echo Rom but wanted to try an ASOP rom but quickly wanted to revert.
I tried to restore my Nandroid but this failed and screwed up the phone (dont ask)so back to ODIN and i flashed back to stock 4.4.2 firmware for the UK via Sammobile (NG8)
Now back to square 1 so attempted to reroot with CF Autoroot again via ODIN. all show pass and i get the black screen on the phone with the red android logo and line stating stock recovery restored. I then used ODIN to flash Philz recovery again shown as Pass, however when i try to get into recovery i get some small white text on the bkack background that is there too briefly to read before the phone reboots as normal.
The Su superuser app is there but states the Su binary is outdated and the phone has no root access.
Ive read a few methods to get round this but they all seem to follow the same process ive tried a few times now.
The Rom for Echoe is auto root so id have thought if i could get to recovery somehow i could just flash this ?
Any one any views or have i screwed up for good ? .
You will be fine.
If you want to flash a custom rom anyway the shortest way would be to just flash the custom recovery. You don't need root for that.
Uncheck auto-reboot before you flash the recovery and it should work.

so i reflashed Philz recovery and unchecked auto reboot. This then gives me PASS in ODIN. I guess then i unplug and try and activate recovery - but still nothing...it just boots up normally ?

What is the model descriped when you are in download mode?
What is the exact version of Philz you are trying to flash?

GTI9505...(Bootloader i9505xxegng8)
Originally I tried philz_touch_5.15.8-i9505.tar.md5
and then updated to philz_touch_6.23.9-i9505.tar.md5 with no avail.
Try redownloading it. If you say that if passes, then it should just work.
If it still fails then try TWRP. Uncheck auto-reboot before flashing.
Could it be connected to me flashing a generic unlocked UK firmware on a 3 UK handset ?
That's sorted it ! Flashed CWM recovery and am now running Echoes v28.
Thanks for the help. I was really panicking for a while.
I wont be changing roms for a while but I guess if I did I won't lose root ?
