Try to factory reset, and cahce reset, sometimes the rom can't start properly after some modifications, you will loose all your data but that could recover your phone.
Do a backup with a custom recovery before doing that and you can check if that works and after that recover your data.

Hi
Please can someone help I flashed my Galaxy s with fyro 2.2 using odin. Since i done this it wont get past the screen that has the "S" on it gets to that then switches off.
I have tried flashing it with other firmware still get the same issue.
What am i doing wrong?
cheers
Try factory resetting through recovery. That fixed the S hang for me.
Did you have any lagfixes enabled before flashing?
I dont think i had any lagfixes enabled.
How do i reset it through recovery mode?
cheers

Using the factory reset phone option in Recovery Mode. If that doesn't work, flash a fresh stock ROM that contains DBDATA, such as XXJPU.

I just got a GT-i9500 GS4 and I wanted to install miui on it but didn't noticed the release was for i9505, after the installation finished my phone didn't boot up and I think it's bricked. I tried a few unbricking methods like factory reset and cache wipe but nothing helped.
Any1 can help me please, also is it possible to get it to the store and get it fixed because I did a factory reset on it so it's not rooted ?

Thx for the reply but It didn't help.
After trying a few more things I installed CWD instead of Philz touch recovery and it had a restore point so that fixed the problem for me
Hey All,
I flashed Jamal's Google Edition ROM, but now i wanted to go back to stock touchwiz rom.
So i downloaded official firmware from sammobile and flashed it trough odin.
It succeeded and started to boot
But then every app started crashing and the phone kept telling me this and that ended.
So i Flashed it again, only this time it got stuck on system.img.ext4
it wouldn't go passed it...
So after 10-15mins waiting i just unplugged and tried to flash again, but it keeps getting stuck on system.img.ext4
Any help is much appreciated!!!

You should have done a data factory reset after the first flash bro, that would have solved it. Can you still get into recovery and wipe the caches and do a data factory reset?

ugh (-_-)
now i can't even get into recovery anymore
"Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
EDIT:
I flashed a stock kernel and it booted, but now the device driver installer said the MTP USB-Device has failed to install
>> i'll try to get into recovery now
EDIT 2:
I succesfully did a data/factory reset
but the cache partition fails...
the phone reboots and gets stuck on the Samsung GALAXY S4 GT-I9505 screen

Do you have a jig to get into downloadmode? If not, pull the battery and try after a few minutes (5-10) reinserting the battery and you might try again.

Noooooo, not during the flash
Is it done and does it boot? If yes do a data factory reset in settings/accounts/Backup and restore/ data factory reset.

So i tried my best to install cyanogen mod 12 and it eventually worked but it was so buggy, i flashed my original ROM using ODIN and now the phone just shuts off every now and then and gets stuck in a boot loop until i connect a charger, it is not the battery though as it is always around 50% when it does it, i tried Re-installing my original rom but it still continues to do it. I tried to install philz touch to be able to reset the phone for a new ROM but when i press the buttons to boot it up it just turns on, does the stuff it usually does before going into philz touch but then shuts off, can someone please help? Im going to austria in a few days and need my phone fixed for then

Hi mate
What S4 model do you have , what rom are you installing?
Do a factory reset and flash rom again
Check your power button...just in case
if you root a stock rom you have to remove all knox related files , did you?
