S4 9505 stuck in bootloop - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Earlier today I was trying to install the 4.3 omega rom (GE), so I went into recovery and accidently wiped the data before I installed the rom. I am not sure what caused the issue my phone is just stuck on the S4 boot screen.
I tried reinstalling the previous rom (Omega 4.2.2) and it made no difference. I have TWRP recovery and I can get into recovery fine. I noticed that I cannot factory reset from TWRP and it says E/data cannot be mount, reset failed.
I am not sure what to do and how to fix my phone I tried to look for e/data issue but I cannot find much on that issue and I am noobie to this so I cannot understand some processes that are mentioned. I tried not to mess around too much after I realised its stuck.
Please help!

Thanks I will try that now, takes long to download the stock rom. I will report back if success.

I just did a stock firmware install through odin, now my phone is stuck on logo! Help!
Edit: I did some research and rebooted the phone on stock recovery, did a factory reset and restarted. It solved the issue and mine is back to life and working! Thank you for all your help!

Device Stuck at Boot Screen

Hey guys this has been very frustrating for me , I do not know what I am doing wrong
I unrooted my phone using Odin
I then install CWM from the App itself
I have an unlocked 1337m
I just cant seem to get any rom to work , I know how to flash them properly they all just hang at the boot screen. I tried SHOstock and that hung , I also tried OMEGA from the i9505 section and that hung at the same spot. The only successfully flashes were MIUI and some other random stock based rom. Did i miss a step ?
Thanks alot
Go back into recovery and do a factory reset, after odin you must do a factory reset.
Thank you

You need to wipe data, system, and the caches before you flash the rom.

After you flash/install a stock fw or a custom rom, you should do a factory reset and ur bootloop will go away.

hello, i have done this also. still there
it still gets stuck at Samsung screen

Well, I'm not positive about that variant but if the bootloader is locked you would need a rom or kernel with loki or you would need a custom recovery with auto-loki. If you look at the kernel you flash instead of boot.img in the zip it will be boot.lok. Not sure if this is the case for your phone but you should look into it if you haven't already.
You probably also have a bad download..please check your download rom md5 make sure they're matching ..if not re-download ..

Dear XDA Members
I have a Galaxy s4 GT-I9505 i had an old version of Omega Rom on my galaxy and everything was workin smooth. But i decided to flash a new rom and do a factory reset and delete all data then i flashed A modifyed stockrom with TWRP it was working fine until i restarted the phone and it stuck on the galaxy s4 Boot logo so i went to recovery and flashed it again with wipe/dalvik etc. I saw in TWRM the system was unmounted so i mounted it again. and flashed the same rom again. it was booting and after i was able to us the rom again until i restarted the phone and it stuck again

Hi,
I think you can use Odin and flash your ROM via USB.
Do you have a backup ROM?

Samsung galaxy S5 SM-G900V 6.0.1 bootloop

Hi i tried to root my Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900V 6.0.1 but made a fatal mistake. I put kernel file for lollipop 5.0 in odin and now its stuck in an infinite bootloop. I tried factory data reset and wipe cache partition but it didnt work. Need help!
Hi. I did the same mistake like a week ago. and the only fix is installing android 6.0.1 again is the only sollution.
Use Odin to reflash kernel or stock rom. If you have twrp flash another rom.

Hi, I have a 900T. I don't know if I have the same problem. I have 6.0.1, and got the boot loop. I reflashed it off of rapidgator, and it worked, but after I powered the phone down, it is stuck in the loop again, and reflashing doesn't work. Well, it sort of works, but when it loads onto the phone after success with Odin, it says "erasin" half way through and goes back to loop. I am a noob, so I am not sure what kernel or stock rom or twrp are. Thanks!

I tried 5.0 and it does the same thing. Success on Odin, phone restarts and starts to load the firmware, then it stops in the middle and resets to the boot loop. Is my phone hard bricked?
