Not sure, but i would start with the basics--
1. Don't use Factory Reset. Do it manually thru Advanced. Wipe System/Data/Caches 3
2. Flash 4.3 rom for your phone before flashing a 4.4.
3. If you continue to have issues back up your internal sdcard to pc and format it then reinstall the data.
2.5.0.2 has been rock solid for me
I am not familiar with European phones. You could try a differnet kernel for you phone.
Did you Google your problem to see if anyone else has the issue.
Good luck--

OK thx i will try #1 and #2
How can i do real clean instal? . like it was when i bought it
Because when in flash 4.3 stock ROM some stuff like wall wallpaper and the greenify setting stay the same.
If i wipe the data will everything be back like when i first bought the phone?

Not sure on going back to original. Maybe Odin with a stock tar file for your version. Not familiar with that though. I have the wallpaper issue also. Not uncommon. Going of you wipe as suggested and redo internal card, you will be OK. Sometimes files are left there from previous roms and can effect new rom. Calling it a nite.

[HELP] I think I have bricked it.

Guys, I was about to flash a new rom (Omega v2 for i9500) then I wiped the whole thing in CWM. But in addition to that I have formatted the system (mounts and format > format system), now device won't boot. I can get in Download Mode and Recovery mode but it just won't boot...
Now I am downloading a stock ROM from SamMobile; would it fix it if i flash it via Odin? And any suggestions?
Please tell me something because I am feeling really bad =/.

always do a backup via cwm for your rooted stock rom after rooting!
did you flash the rom after formatting system?
any way, Odin should fix it

wipe data and cache and dalvik, reflash the rom, rewipe data and cache and dalvik, reboot.
if not, you have odin.

Flash Philz Touch recovery with Odin 3.04 in downloadmode, that should solve your problem.Link http://d-h.st/wSF. TWRP and CWM are buggy atm. After that you can flash Fox Hound Rom again.

did odin says "pass"?
bootloop fix:
-wipe cache and data from recovery, if not,
-restore nandroid backuo if present. if not,
-flash stock firmware with odin, make wipe after flashing, if not,
-flash pit file with the firmware in odin, make wipe after flashing.

looks like it is working now. I don't know why. i left it on the desk for about an hour... and there it is... unfortunately only stock rom. i guess i will leave it that way never change a running system.

nope tried all that

odin pc doesn't erase everything??

hey guys i was under the impression that if i flashed stock firmware using the pc version of odin it was supposed to format my phone to clean without having to use recovery to delete everything.
this isn't the case with me, odin pc (ver 1.85) seems to be dirty flashing these stock roms on my phone if i don't wipe in recovery.
is this right or is something wrong here?
I've seen the same thing. It doesn't necessarily wipe the internal sd card

That's the way all the version of Odin PC work.
That's why it's always best to go into recovery and do a clean wipe including data,
system, cache, dalvik cache and last but not least do a "Factory Reset" in recovery.
Doing it that way always gives the best results. (it does not wipe the sdcard)
Good luck!

[Q] Flashing various TW Lollipop fw over existing CM12 fails

Hello,
actually I'm using a SGS4 I9505 with cm-12-20150304-NIGHTLY-jfltexx and CWM 6.0.5.1.
I've tried to flash several TW Lollipop firmware wich i found in the I9505 forum:
1. Kushan+Touchwiz+Lollipop+Lite+Rom+v.1.2
2. S4_Echoev42_EchoePop2_020315
3. OA7-2.1F
4. XXUHA07-v2.01
Before flashing any oft this firmwares i made a factory reset, wiped both caches and installed the modem Firmware via Odin.
After flashing firmware # 1 and 2 my phone was stuc in a bootloop (only Samsung Galaxy S4 Logo appears).
Flashing firmware #3 and 4 fails and cwm reports error 7.
Flashing cm12 afterwards isn't a problem and runs fine.
I think the wipe fails or doesn't work properly. Is it enougth to select factory reset in cwm and wipe the dalvik cache manualy?
What can I do?
With besteht regard
Mirko (NemesisMF)
What if it is a recovery problem?
Thought about that too.
Should i try twrp or philz?
I switched to Philz Recovery and flashed S4 Echoe Rom v42 without any Problems.
CWM seems to have a problem to falsh TW Lollipop images ower an existing CM12 an the I9505.
You need to do full wipe not just cache.

As I wrote above I did a factory reset before flashing and wiped the caches with cwm. If that is not enougth it would be nice to explain what else I have to wipe or post a link.
While using philz recovery the factory reset for clean system is enougth and the new System is working fine.
Factory wipe is not full wipe, you need to do a full wipe as in format to install new rom, phillz recovery has this feature can't remember exactly where, I think its under advanced.
Just have a look in the sub menus.
Just to explain it better when you do a full wipe it deletes every part of the existing
Rom including the system, data and cache and some other stuff completely removing the android operating system, so unless the rom you install does a wipe before install parts of the existing system will remain and can cause boot issues. For example as you've already discovered you are trying to install a tw rom over an existing cyanogenmod 12 installation which Will cause it to hang on boot.

Do you mean a factory reset from within Android itself? If so, then that's a complete obsolete step. When before flashing a rom you should perform a factory reset, then they always mean a full wipe from the recovery. You need to do a full wipe from the recovery. That means the /system partition is being wiped. You will see it in the screen during the wipe if it wipes /system.
But it also could have been a problem of CWM. I don't think it is being updated anymore, so better use TWRP or Philz.
