I've got a Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505. So I tried to flash CWM 6.0.3.2 to my phone, and I've managed to **** it up somehow. I used Odin to flash it, I even followed a tutorial. When I try to boot up to the recovery it get stuck loading or something. It stays stuck when it says Recovery loading in the left upper corner. So, any ideas? I've tried to flash it again, no result.

Hi guys, tried to boot into twrp this morning and it wont boot. It simply loops the "teamwin" screen. Ive tried reflashing twrp and it didnt fix it. Also i tried CWM and it just got stuck on Samsung with the blue booting recovery in the top left. Any ideas?
It boots into my stock rooted BTU rom and download mode by the way.

So I rooted, and installed SS. And on ROM slot 1 I installed GE Rom. Once finished I rebooted and now its stuck on the Samsung Boot logo.
Doesnt go anywhere else.
I have let it sit here. I am able to get into the stock recovery mode. I already tried to factory wipe.
Any ideas?

What is your recovery? CWM or TWRP?
If you did wipe data on TWRP, it'll cause you to hang at the Samsung boot logo, you have to reflash via odin back to stock. Check GE FAQ section (post #2)

Oh shoot. Totally ignored safestrap. I heard you could only flash 4.2.2 ROMs and not 4.3
Hi, need a stock MJ5 kernel flashable with odin to save my GT-I9505, stuck at splash screen with no recovery. Been flashing with odin and Kies for the last 4 days without any luck. I ve downloaded one which says MJ5 stock kernel but when i unzip it its MJ3. Thanks
Why not just flash a rom with MJ5 in it?
Or just flash a recovery and do a wipe. Then flash the rom you want.

Thanks, Been flashing last 4 days, stock with odin both rom n recovery n also using kies firmware upgrading, both done successfully but phone just reboot into "recovery booting"n stays there, saw a lot of post here in xda n elsewhere but no one seems to ve found any solution, btw my phone is not rooted. took it out of my pocket last week saw phone was off where i powered it just stays on splash screen will go to download mode but not recovery. Also have a galaxy w same condition. Everybody seems to think that if phone is able to boot to download mode phone is not bricked, i beg to differ. I ve a few HTC phone never have so much problem as Samsung, my Note 2 suffered SDS:crying:. No more Samsung phones. Thanks guys
Flash the kernel still no help.

If I were in this situation I would flash a custom recovery (Philz) and if you can boot into that recovery, I would format System, Data, Cache and SD card.
Now you have a totally clean slate to flash Stock ROM in Odin. The thing is Odin flashing is a no wipe procedure, so if you have something corrupt or causing issues on your phone it'll still be there after Odin flash regardless of firmware.
You can find the .Tar file of Philz recovery in his thread, flash that in PDA of Odin and try to boot to recovery again. Make sure auto reboot is NOT ticked and your phone is totally powered off. Then using Volume up+Power try again to boot to recovery, as soon as you see the blue writing "recovery booting" release power button but keep holding down Volume UP.
So what you are saying:
- You can't boot, it stays at the Samsung logo.
- You can't enter recovery, it just boots again.
- You can enter download mode.
- Flashing is succesfull.
Am I correct? Then my first guess would be that you have a faulty battery. Look if its more swollen than normal.

Thought of it but i don't wanna trigger the flag (Knox) as my phone is still under warranty.
Tested with my Galaxy W (same condition with S4) everything i flash with odin is successful but phone boot up in same condition. That's why i just wanna try with stock for S4.

My phone is only 2 months also tried different battery, I ve 2 original. When i plug into wall charger only shows grey battery icon with static circle, but the funny thing is i suspect the battery is being charged.
When i boot into recovery it just stays at "recovery booting"ve left it for 30mins and when i turn on normally it stays on the splash screen.
I have a Canadian galaxy note 3 currently with Telus. I had it rooted with a custom rom once before but then Un rooted it and put it back to the stock rom that I got off sammobile.com. The problem is that I rooted it again and every time I try to install a custom recovery nothing will work. I've tried through Odin, goo manager, rom manager... but every time I boot into recovery it loads the stock recovery. The stock recovery also has the tipped over android with the red triangle. Please help! I love custom roms to much to give up on this

Did you uncheck auto reboot in odin before you flashed? After the flash pull the battery and reinsert it after 5 seconds. Hold volume up + menu + power and you should get in to the custom recovery.
reply
I have tried that but when it starts to boot the recovery it gets stuck in a loop where it vibrates, shows the words recovery booting and then the screen goes black and it repeats over and over.

What recovery are you trying to flash?

I had anthem ioap rom before but now I am just running the stock samsung firmware. I've tried to install cwm and twrp but it is not working. I don't get stuck in the recovery booting loop anymore though. Instead Odin gets stuck on the recovery.img process.
Hello everyone, I wanted to flash a ROM to my Galaxy S4 i9505. I first rooted it like described in this tutorial. That went all ok.
After that I downloaded this and tried to flash using Odin Mobile. It rebooted to some sort of recovery, wiped data, cache etc. and then it wrote some error.
After that, I am stuck at the Samsung logo and can't boot into android. I can't also enter recovery, when i hold the buttons, it boots and there is written BOOTING RECOVERY (in the left top corner) but after that it goes to the Samsung logo again.
I can still get into Download mode. If anyone could help with this I would be really grateful.

Hi mate,
Why you flashed a custom rom with Odin mobile???
Go into recovery and do a factory reset try to reboot and see if it works if not....
Go to recovery do a factory reset ...and flash rom from there ( did you installed a custom recovery?)
If no working ..go to recovery do a factory reset ...download a stock rom ( sammobile) download Odin ( not odin mobile) flash stock rom...
Then you can root , install custom recovery and flash custom rom from there...
I did try to install the recovery using odin (this one), but when i rebooted there was the default recovery So after that i decided to flash the rom using odin mobile (and that got me here).
Can i install custom recovery with firmware ending with GNG8? I had 4.4.2 stock before this.

Hi
What odin did you use to flash the custom recovery? it should work, you can also try TWRP recovery
http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/182
Do not use odin mobile go with the pc type
You can install a custom rom...but you need a custom recovery

Thanks for the tip, I installed it through Odin 3.09, first I got stuck on booting into recovery, but on the second try I kept holding the volume up only after phone logo appeared and now I am in the TWRP.
Reseting the phone now and I will install the rom after that. Thanks again, hope it will succeed now.
