I was going to try out the 4.3 alpha for Pac-Rom. I was on TWRP and I wiped and flashed and rebooted, and it continued to bootloop for some reason. I then tried to go to recovery, which wouldn't boot, so it was stuck on the teamwin logo indefinitely. I flashed CWM via Odin, and now I can access recovery. I tried wiping and flashing the previous ROM I had (the latest release version of Pac-Rom), still bootlooping. I tried using a wipe all zip, flashed a different ROM, same issue. Please help.

Will this wipe data/media? I have stuff on there I'd like to save. If it does, how can I get it to my computer? Mounting through CWM doesn't do anything for some reason.

No luck.
I'll try a full wipe Odin flash. I discovered I had already backed up the files I needed from the internal SD.
Edit: I got it working! I flashed stock MDC. Not sure why that worked but not MF9. Now I can flash MF9 I guess.

Alright ive kinda hit a wall im not sure what i can do i can't seem to get my s4 to flash to any custom roms. just picked it up it came with the latest MF9, ive followed the instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2257101 to get root access and to install twrp. i can get it all to install just fine and have verified that i have root access. but once i flash a custom rom ie. CM 10.1 or even Slim mod either through goomanager it will say it installs successfully but once it reboots the new rom splash screen shows up and just sits there forever spinning and it never goes any further.
ive even restored my device to factory and unrooted the device and im still unable to get any roms to load up. am i missing anything that someone might be able to point out
heres the steps ive tried or gone thru
1. CF-autoroot via odin
2. install Twrp or CWM either thru odin or their manager aps
3. copy rom and gapps to sd card
4. boot to recovery and try to install
5. get stuck at splash screen!!!!
You probably need to install a compatible kernel. If the Rom doesn't include one that's the problem.

S4 rebooting as soon as I boot it!?
Hi!
So I followed Djembeys guide to root my s4 back when ME2/MF2(or smthn in that matter)was the newest firmware avable. But now I wanted to go back to stock and update my phone and as stated in the guide that would be no problem, well OTA didn't work so i did it via Kies. It worked as expected for a while before my phone started freezing and rebooting itself forever, like as soon as i get into the launcher.
Things I've tryed to do:
*Checking in download mode that everything is official, it is, and the phone doesn't seem to reboot while in download mode, should I flash a stock rom, I mean, what if the phone shuts off in the middle of the process?
*Doing a factory data reset via stock recovery, the "android" in recovery falls down and a triangle at his stomach. However the data reset worked, but it didn't solve the problem, still reboots but now when the phone is trying to set itself up.
What can i do guys? You think i can send it back to the store seeing everything is official in download mode?
[ROM]New Deadly Venom v8.1.0 Jelly Bean 4.2.2|AT&T[MF3][9/21/2013][Themed can be install this rom to my galaxy s4 i337m telus canada version

Update guessing is the ota? You can use flashify app from play store to flash either TWRP recovery 2.6.3.2 that is a IMG. Or 2.6.3.3. That's a zip file .....
