Turn off the phone and try to go back to recovery mode again by pressing volume button up and power button. Reinstall the ROM by doing a full wipe.

Bricked Galaxy S4

This is extremely frustrating.
I successfully rooted my galaxy s4.
I then downloaded CMW and touch, and downloaded this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341376
I then booted into recovery, and wiped etc and then installed the rom. I read on the later part of that page that there wasn't a need for loki so I did not download loki.
I then rebooted, and got the yellow triangle sign saying that the software is not approved by ATT.
This is where I am stuck. I have a mac and am running vmware windows 8.
I tried downloading kies on the mac, and it does not recognize the phone. I did not try kies for windows yet, nor do I know what to do after if I am able to get kies to recognize the s4.
I also downloaded odin, and the firmware, but odin is not recognizing the phone under windows even when I select to use the phone under windows.
I tried the stock usb cable, and a different usb cable, and 2 different usb ports. I do not have a regular windows computer. Is there a way to do this with a mac?
Guess I should have downloaded the loki, is not downloading the loki the whole reason this is happening?
I appreciate everyones help! I just wanted stock android! :good:

I do not have a s4 but have a s2 but its like the same.
1. Why would you not already have Odin installed and kies?! Just in case
2. No backup made?...
3. Can you still get into recovery and download mode if so then you have hope.. wait for someone to give you steps to get out of this
4. If you can't get into either... well :banghead:

Thanks,
1. I have odin and kies installed, they are just not recognizing the phone.
2. I made a backup using titanium backup but not really sure how it works... I've never restored from a backup using titanium
3.Yes I am able to get into download mode by holding the volume, home and power key...

Mmm alright... Go into download mode and take out your SD card and download the Loki file in the ROM thread then transfer to sdcard on PC. Then place back in phone.. Then go intro recovery and flash the file and it should work.
But wait before anything can you get into recovery? If so then you go to mounts and storage and mount sdcard and transfer the Loki file from your PC right there.

I have installed kies on the windows version and it notices the phone is connected, but it just keeps saying "connecting..." and a little thing spinning. Not sure how long it should take to connect...

why not download the loki zip to sd card, then put back on phone, reboot to recovery and install from sd card...

Yes I can boot into recovery.
Wow I didn't even think of that... Sorry I am a noob.
Okay I fixed it (you fixed it thank you so much!) I booted into recovery, and then into the zip file and installed loki, and all is well.

the OP of that ROM lists these specific installation instructions:
HOW TO INSTALL:
* Download the ROM (NO NEED FOR GAPPS)
* Reboot to Recovery
* Wipe data/factory reset
* Flash the ROM
* U.S. MODELS - Flash Loki Patch - http://tau.shadowchild.nl/files/loki-doki.zip (CANADIAN USERS DO NOT INSTALL)
* Reboot your Galaxy S4
* Enjoy
remember to read everything first and understand what you are doing before proceeding. cheers

And only 5 simple steps. One sec of reading. And it matters. Or kaboom.

You need to connect your phone to your computer in the pink screen and then change the boot.img file.
To do so - switch off your phone, then hold the volume up and down keys and power on your phone.
You'll get the pink screen. Connect it to your computer and change the image file.

If you are getting the pink screen, then you should get the image folder as well.
Try using another computer.

There are different versions depending on where you live, but that shouldn't matter.
My version was U8800 V100R001C00B136SP03CUSTC151D002.
Anyway, try the pink screen method again.
You have the drivers installed, right? If not, then make sure you install them.
Get into the pink screen and then connect your phone to your PC.

I think i have the drivers installed. But could you please walk me through the install process. As rooting 2.3.5 with the pink screen has never worked.
When i plug usb in, and phone is in pink screen, usb sounds three times, not twice like it normally would.....

I rooted my u8800 (2.3.5) with super OneClick.

Did you turn your USB debugging on?
If not, turn it on and then give it a try.
Else use super one click.

i've had the same problem as you, when i used the pink screen, the Internal memory didn't show up and SuperOneClick didn't work for me neither, i just went with Doomlord worked like a charm.
here's the link and i hope you find this helpful ^_^
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1321582
PS: installing CWM isn't rooting its something you can only do after rooting and you'll need something like "remount" to make the img file RW(re-writable) and then use the ES explorer to over-write the old recovery file with CWM

Well for phones without external SD card like my Nexus 4 and Moto G, the memory for use to the user or connecting your phone to PC and modifying files like a USB drive is called a SD card here on XDA (I think), so don't worry about the terms. Hope its clear and hope this helps.

Loss of Vendor

Hi
Hope someone can help. I was running MIUI 9 (Android 7) and unlocked the phone and then installed TWRP 3.2.1.0 when I rebooted the phone stuck on the MI screen with the unlocked indicator at the bottom. I went back into TWRP and found that the OS had disappeared. I then downloaded MIUI 9 GLOBAL zip and I could not transfer it to the phone (kept saying it was not connected) although I was able to access the internal SD on my Laptop. I then downloaded MiNote2 Global V8.2.3.0 MADMIDL and was able to send it to the phone and install it but during the install I got (Vendor not mounted, invalid argument). Can anyone advise how I can get my MI Note 2 up and running again?
TIA

Sorry to respond to you this late , i'm not using XDA that often nowadays...
You may want to try restoring all back to normal with Mi Flash Tool...
Download the fastboot ROM and flash it. Be careful to not be selected the clean all+ lock option on the bottom left.

The simple steps are:
To make sure the drivers are ok, install "Minimal fast oot and adb drivers"
Unpack the fastboot rom, open MiFlash and select the folder that has been unpacked (it normally has the same name as the zip)
Press Refresh in MiFlash if your device does not appear in the list (you need to have it plugged in and in fastboot mode at this point)
When your device is seen, and it will be if you have the drivers fine, click on Flash.
Hope this helps
The phone will reboot when the flash is done

Hi
Thanks for your reply. Did all as you have indicated but still get error (not found flash_all.bat) when I start the flash process in.MiFlash tool.
