Are you sure the bootloader flashed?
Because you didn't say about flashing a KK Recovery. As the JB ones dont work on the new bootloader

Just try a data factory reset after you flashed a custom rom next time, that should fix the boot issue.

Have you tried clearing the caches after the flash? Did you do a full wipe before flashing the rom? Flashed the correct rom for the N9005?

The fix:
Download the kernel from here and flash it, http://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=12055

[Q] How to find a custom kernel for my note?

Hi, I flashed countless kernels for my european SM-N9005 but I can't find one that let me pass through the boot of the phone. Every time I get stuck after the samsung logo ina black screen, forcing me to reboot on recovery and do a recovery of the boot from a backup I made earlier.
I'm running the latest android kitekat aokp rom, with the latest CW bootloader.
Please help me I would like to overlcock and downclock my device.

Like I said, nothing change. Black screen and I have to recovery the boot partition.
PS seems that the phone can get through the boot process, but I can see nothing cause the screen is totally black. In fact, if I try to unlock the phone, I can hear the sound of the unlock process.
Why? How I can solve this?

Some1 help please ;_;

No you don't. It has no effect on kernel flashing whatsoever.

Does the stock kernel still work fine?
I mean, flashing the stock kernel will pass the boot process?

Yep, with the stock kernel of the rom all is fine, just updated to the last nightly yesterday, I will try again this weekend with other kernels

I know this is off topic and I apologise, but I dont want to make a new thread...
I'm a first time rooter and have TWRP installed ...
I don't know much about kernels but I'm interested in one that works well with stock ROM, is fully stable, improved performance, improves battery and perhaps also has double tap to wake...
If anyone could recommend one, or a few options, that would be great... Thanks

Hey,
I made a thread the other day about getting a good ROM because the others seem to die after 3 days. Does anyone have an idea of why this happens? I have tried 6 different ROMS in 4 days and they all the do the same thing; Apps won't open, phone constantly on boot logo, apps crash, phone freezes up, phone won't boot up.
The phone is around 4 weeks old with minimal wear.
I would appreciate all feedback.

That's my problem. When I did flash a custom ROM, they all froze, crashed, non responsive etc etc. So this has made me not want to flash a custom ROM, but I want to because of all the perks that come with flashing /:

You have maybe to update bootloader or modem or recovery before flashing. .
Give some details about your actual configuration and the rom you flash...

I had CWM 6.0.4.7 flashed and I tried Gooh S5+N4 ROM, S5 stock by Jamal, XNote, Omega and N9005 Dev Base (RC tea I think) and a couple others. When flashing, I did all the normal step, wiping cache, wiping data, dalvik when told and leaving the phone for 10 minutes after it boots.
Do you want any information about the actual phone?

You have N9005 international? ???you have flashed stock KK one time???your bootloader and modem version....
You have to factory reset during flash.......

Yes, I have the SM-N9005 LTE. I am now running Kitkat Official 4.4.2. Sorry, but I don't know how to see my bootloader/modem version.
I m running with stock recovery if that helps.

1. Reflash the stock ROM.
2. Root with CF Auto Root.
3. Flash this custom recovery: TWRP (better than CWM).
4. You can remove the bloatware (HERE) and enjoy the stock ROM.

Sorry but I don't like the custom Roms. It's coz they are constantly updating and fixing things, no coz they are bad. Every device don't answer in same way with same ROM either. It's only my opinion . Last choice is always yours.

Stucked At SAMSUNG LOGO S4 I9500

I'm just new to rooting and installing ROM. I know that installing CROSS ROM can break my Galaxy S4 I9500.
Then too mistakenly i installed Imperium 16.0 on S4 I9500 which was for I9505.
Then i looked for S4 I9500 another ROM and after that i installed ROVOSOFT ROM.
Since then i'm stucked at Samsung logo screen.
Even i tried CWM recovery of my backup ROM but still same No result.
Help is needed as fast as possible,just to start my phone back.
Suggest any ROM which can solve my problem.

the kernel you used earlier might be incompatible that's why it was stuck on the samsung logo. i used to have this on my Xperia S when i mess up sometimes i just flash a kernel. then it's working fine again. read the instruction first before flashing a rom mate.
