Hiya guys need some help
I have a galaxy s4 gt-i9505 that I had running the Google play edition ROM
Then my wife ordered a galaxy gear for my birthday (early January)
I tried to put the latest carrier ROM on through Odin and it flashed OK but kept coming up with procces.android.acore has stopped
I did some googleing and then re-flashed the ROM but clicked the wipe button and it flashed OK
But when it restarted it got stuck in a bootloop and wouldn't get past the Samsung logo
I then flashed twrp recovery and managed to get 4.4 ROM on there (but it seems really laggy and drops calls everytime)
I have tried to recover my backup but twrp can't see it and the cwm recovery won't flash on
So how do I either get stock back on my phone or a ROM that will accept the gear and isn't laggy or buggy
Thanks in advance for the help guys

Download the triangle away app. (search google or xda)
Download the latest Samsung ROM from Sammobile.com
Enter in recovery mode and WIPE all data,
Flash the ROM via ODIN.
When its done, enter in recover again and make another wipe.
If u get a successful boot, and if u have a new bootloader(knox) u wont be able to use WIFI, u'll need to use Triangle away to wipe the binary counter. SO then u will need to REFLASH the ROM.
After all of this, u should get the phone working fine.
Sorry for the text. ;o
IF U DONT HAVE THE NEW BOOTLOADER (KNOX), JUST WIPE THE SYSTEM BEFORE AND AFTER FLASHING.
Good luck, bro.

Correct ROM for ur UK branded to Vodafone is this ONE
ok so i admit i'm an idiot,
what i forgot was that i needed to use adb to get into cwm recovery
when i realised that i could recover back to my stable version
so in order to use the gear (when it arrives) do i need to go back to stock or can i use the google play edition rom i like ???

also have to admit i was freaked out that you knew i was on voda ..... till i realised it was in my profile lol
ok so i did all of the above with the correct firmware and again it just keeps saying acore ?? process stopped ..so i had to flash back through to the 4.4 rom then flash cwm on and restore my old 4.3 rom
i tried a wipe through odin and that just caused a bootloop again
any other ideas on how to get back to stock ??

Mate, try this steps:
1. Flash stock recovery
2. Flash stock rom from sammobile
3. wipe
The gear only works with stock rom 4.3
ok so i tried everything nothing worked and i got stuck in a constant bootloop
then i tried flashing it with odin 3.09 .......all was going well till it failed and left me with nothing on the phone at all
i re-tried with through 3.07 and this time it worked
i now have stock on my phone thankfully
thanks for all the help guys

Hi! I just installed foxhound ground zeroes rom to my samsung galaxy s4 i9505 and yeah it got stuck to the bootloader and there's a blinking blue led on the corner. I could go to my old rom but it was foxhound 2.0 and the 4.2.2 would be nice. I didn't wipe all the data because of so many apps and stuff i need. And what about the modem and the other thing that was supposed to flash on odin, what do they do? Any suggestions?
Edit: New thing popped up, i can't go to recovery for an unknown reason.

Hmm, this has happened to me before too.
If you cannot get into recovery, can you get into download mode?
When it happened to me I used Odin to flash the stock firmware to get the phone working again. Hope this helps
OK, so I was preparing to flash a new ROM to my Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4. I backed up my original/stock ROM using TWRP Recovery and everything went well. I then flashed CWM to my phone and it was a bad ROM, so when I went to restore my original ROM, it installed great, however the boot process didn't backup. So now every time I turn on my phone, the Samsung Galaxy S4 logo shows up, but then blank screen with blue LED on. It would stay like this until I took my battery out. I need to know how I can restore my original ROM. Can I install a stock ROM, then restore my backup, or what?? Please guys I really need help.
Hi All,
I was on some Lollipop rom for a few weeks and decided to try something new so downloaded one jackaway rom l2 and did the usual backup, factory reset and flashed the rom. All good but after say 30mins i decided to go back and restore my previous rom. Went to recover did a cleanup to install new rom and then started restoring the backup previously made however after sometime in the restore process the screen dimmed and then just blacked out without any warning.
Now my phone does boot up into recovery after removing the battery and putting it back again but any thing like flashing a new rom or restoring causes it sometimes suddenly blackout or goes through the screen dimming and blackout.
I have never experienced this before so can someone pls advise if they know as to whats happening and if Odin flashing is the only way left for me. Thanks
Forgot to mention, mine is a N9005.
bump.
Can someone help me pull the cwm backup from internal memory using adb. Thanks
What recovery are you using?
