[Q] Stuck up on custom rom. - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm using Samsung Galaxy S4 I9500. My original Stock OS was not working fine. Stucks up when I get a phone call and some times applications stuck up. I was irritated and I loaded a custom rom i.e. JellyBam 10.2.0 Even this Rom has some reboot problems. I tried to update to JellyBam 10.3.0 but after installation through CWM, my phone didn't boot. I've waited for 5 mins and then I rolled back to 10.2.0 I've also tried Omega Rom v10.0 but even that stuck up at boot logo (logo was still animating). So, I've waited for 5 mins and I've rolled back to JellyBam 10.2.0 I have found a link to go back to STOCK ROM i.e. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265477
but this requires my PDA and CSC number. Now I'm on JellyBam 10.2.0 custom rom. I'm unable to find out my PDA and CSC on this custom rom. Please let me know a procedure to find out these numbers or just let me know of a stable custom rom which works on my phone (preferably touchwiz or cyanogenmod).

Permanantly stuck at CM Animation

Hi,
I was using a CM11 4.4.2 Rom for a few months now, and this morning I found it stuck at the CM boot animation loop.
So I went ahead and downloaded latest version of CM11 20140717, I wiped cache/dalvik/data and flashed new rom. And it was still stuck in Animation bootloop.
Then I used safewipe to wipe then flashed 20140717 rom a few times and the same thing kept happening. (I waitad for good more than 15mins for it to boot up).
Later I also tried flashing with 20140616 CM11 build, it also had the same result.
Only difference was 20140616 build has the circular boot animation while for 20140717 build I noticed the Android text flashing as it ised to be in the stock rom.
Can you guys help me, what do I need to do, Flashing stock ROM (sbf) would be the last thing I want to do, Do I need to do that ?
solved

Unrooted S4 to 5.0 Lollipopm cant connect to wifi at all

Hi I need desperate help
two days ago I went from CM11 to S4I9505 Google Play Edition ROM 5.0.1 and everything was running perfectly. Today I used an app known as "ROM Installer" to flash TWRP easily which it did but I couldnt go back to normal menus and it kept on booting back to Recovery. So I wiped everything and installed the same ROM as it is in my External SD. It was successful but it still would boot to recovery and nothing would work. So I thought my option was to unroot the phone. I used the XDA Unroot/Unbrick guide and used an Android 5.0. Lollipop firmware to flash the stock firmware (second time every using Odin, the first was disastrous and I hated it). I flashed the official stock and it is running but cannot activate WiFi what so ever. It just refuses to toggle. So I reflashed the stock firmware again and it still doesn't work. I was thinking of somehow downgrading to KitKat, use CM Installer which is how I initially rooted the phone and revert to a CWM backup that I made before I flashed the S4 GPE ROM and start over. However I tried using that CM Installer and since im on Lollipop it would refuse to work and I really wanna get back to how everything was before :'( I really dont know what to do (No warranty or anything on this S4) All I can do is make calls and texts. Please help!
fixed!
I've fixed it! Its all back on stock with the all that bloatware and useless features only problem now is whether there is a way to deleted this thread

Galaxy s5 (g900v) wont start after safestrap prompts

i have been trying to install a good rom on my s5. i know that since i have an 11' toshiba chip, i cant do any major custom roms only stock touchwiz roms. i have 3 or 4 that i have found that actually work on my phone and when i tried a new rom today, it didn't work. so i flashed 4.4.2 again to start from scratch and i went back to my usual stock deodexed rom that is always a for sure rom that works. today when i flashed it, twrp (safestrap) prompts me to either boot normally or to continue. i have had this problem in the past, and whenever it shows that screen, it will never boot up, after the prompt it will just have a black screen for about 5 min. before booting stock recovery. if i boot it up again, safestrap will still prompt me if i want to boot recovery or continue and keep repeating this cycle. last time, it had resolved itself and didnt show up after wiping and reflashing my rom. this time it wont go away and my phone wont boot anything. thanks in advance

Note 4 won't boot any rom except Stock 5.1.1

So I have Note 4 910F and literally only rom it boots is stock 5.1.1. It won't even boot stock 6.0.1 with updated bootloader and modem. When I install stock 6.0.1 rom all it does is works for 5 minutes at most and restarts and again 5 minutes of completely normal work and poof... And when I install any custom ROM like Ressurection Remix it again has those 5 mins but then the screen just goes black, it vibrates for a sec and nothing. It won't even boot again until i pull out the battery and put it in again. I have tried EVERYTHING. Every possible combination, every possible rom but no. That's it. It only works on Stock 5.1.1. and it won;t even root it properly... I do have latest TWRP recovery on it. Anyone knows what the problem may be?

I already have done that. Could you maybe provide me latest BL and CP if mine aren't?
P.S. I know it's been a few months since you replyed but I left it with stock for a few months because of some things I had to do with it.

Note 4 UK - Tmobile/EE variant Boot Loop

Hi all, I have been at it with this phone for the last 3 days.
Boot looping. I have tried reflashing with what I believe is the stock rom from sammobile.
Is there a way to check the exact rom i need? No matter what rom I have flashed i cannot get it to turn on fully. Even after a successful flash it reboots in recovery mode and then the android alien comes on and eventually freezes and I have to battery pull.
I have tried factory wiping after flash, cache.
Even tried the Pit method.
Dead end now. Maybe its just that I dnt have the right rom i dont know. I got the latest 6.01 from sam mobile uk EVR rom.
Any help would be great. :crying:
