[Q] My Note 3 went %&$&$% - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been using the CM11 rom from Temasek until I decided to have a go at the Omega Rom. After installing through recovery, my note cannot get out of the Samsung Logo. It just refused to start. Tried installing latest stock rom through odin, same issue. Saw three lines of messages on the top left hand corner and the Samsung logo and that's it. Can only get it working if I revert back to Temasek's rom.
Help anyone...

which versions of omega and stock rom did you flash ? i read you said the newest, just asking to be sure.
if its the newest omega rom, you must flash 4.4.2 stock rom first.
when you upgrade to 4.4.2, you can no more use cm11 and you cant go back to any 4.3 based rom.

I tried the 7.1 Omega Rom and then the 4.4.2 version of the stock rom.

You have to flash the stock 4.4.2 via Odin. Is that what you did?

Yes I did.

Try to boot into recovery after flashing the stock 4.4.2 and factory reset. Maybe that will work.

Flash stock 4.3 with odin, then 4.4.2 stock with odin. Then install recovery, and Omega after.

that shouldnt be possible if you done everything right.
as soon as you are on the new bootloader that you get when you flash 4.4.2, you can definatley not revert to temasek, it wont boot.
i think you are still on the old bootloader and that is why your kitkat based roms dont boot.

Thanks all... Its done. Went back to stock rom 4.3, then the 4.4.2, then followed by the usual rooting process for 4.4.2. Phone's working fine now. Doing update to Omega 7.2 as I am writing now... Thanks again all...

If you are going to flash custom ROM; use a toolkit to Root it; flash custom recovery of your choice. Then copy custom ROM to ur phone; go to recovery and flash it. You don't need to downgrade your boot loader.

Does this mean we can downgrade from 4.3 to 4.2.2 custom ROM?
I'm not having a good time with 4.3 stock rooted and custom kernel and thinking about going back to CM 10.1.2. All I need to do is flashing the custom ROM in recovery?

Yes you will be fine. Before PA 4.3 rom was released, I was using Latest 4.3 bootloader with 4.2.2. I am going to revert to 4.2 as well. I noticed 4.3 battery is really good but sometime touchscreen doesnt response / volume buttons doesnt work.

for unresponsive screen go to 'developer options', 'hardware accelerated options', 'disable HW overlays' and select 'always use gpu for screen compositing'. Works for me but setting doesn't seem to stick on reboots.
^^ oh okay thanks but I am already back to the good old 4.2.2 .

Hi I´m quite new to this and did recently flash my second custom rom. I went from CM10.1 (4.2.2) back to stock image, and flashed
[AOSP]Official 4.3- S4 Google Edition- Finaly v2.0 - Feel the Experience of Nexus. The phone is running hot and I´m kind of dissapointed with the
lack of tweaks in Google Edition. So I´d like to go back to CM
So if I understand you right I can from 4.3 flash my stock image (from TWRP) which was on 4.2.2? Without worrying.
Did you make a nandroid backup when you were stock? That should be the easiest way to get back to stock. If you didn't then you will need to use odin to flash back to stock.

Returning to stock australian 9505

Hey guys was hoping to get a little help. I am currently running foxhound 4.1 on my S4. The baseband version is I9505XXUFNA5. Its OS 4.4.2. In the process of flashing this rom according to the instructions on the dev thread said i had to flash a different bootloader and modem before flashing the rom. This process worked fine and i have been running without issue. Work has now decided that they want everyone on Android 4.3 so we can use apps they made to make our job easier so i need to go back to 4.3. I attempted this last night and when i try to flash a 4.3 rom via cwm it returns an error saying that the bootloader is the incorrect one and fails and i have to reinstall foxhound again to make the phone usable. Any one know how i go about getting back to 4.3 or where to get the correct bootloader and modem so i can flash them via odin and then install Androind 4.3? Any help would be very much appreciated.
Cheers Jeff
Nobody can downgrade from 4.4.2
WTF really?? Cant i flash 4.3 bootloader and modem and then go back to 4.3?

Nope not at this stage cannot downgrade to older bootloader, sorry.
The best you can do is install a 4.3 custom rom. Try an echoe rom, version 12.1 the final bean I think should do.

[Q] Help!!! Flashed my S4 to Danvdh GE 4.4.2 and it keeps rebooting!!!

First of all, thanks for reading this...
Here goes the story. I have a Galaxy S4 SGH-I337 AT&T. Yesterday I updated to 4.4.2 OTA. The idea of flashing to google edition ROM came into my mind so I did some research. I found 4.4.2 with NB1 baseband cannot be rooted and it has to downgrade to 4.3 first. So I followed this link:
[NB1►DOWNGRADE★UPDATE◄MK2] ★ [NB1 FULL ODIN] ★ [100% SS ROOTED STOCK] ★ [Mar.23.2014]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2663545
to do so. Everything worked fine. I installed Safestrap-v3.71. Then, I downloaded GOOGLE EDITION 4.4.2 BY Danvdh from (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2537495) and followed this link:
http://www.teamandroid.com/2014/01/...42-kitkat-danvdh-google-edition-custom-rom/2/
to install Danvdh GE 4.4.2. The post said it needs CWM however I was unable to install CWM on my phone so I assume Safestrap should work the same. I used Safestrap to install the zip and got a successful message.
HOWEVER, when I reboot the phone, it just keeps rebooting (i.e., power on, Samsung logo, black, vibrate and reboot again)!!
Please help!!
Oh, I did not flash Loki doki. Is that causing the problem???
I don't think that rom will work with ss. If you have an i337 I think you need a mdl firmware.
Edit, looking at the rom I know it won't work with ss.

Yes, safestrap. You can not install cwm on your device. You can only use ss and touch wiz based roms. You might have to Odin back to mk2 and start over

Actually, I am able to get into download mode.
I'm downloading the full odin tar files file however... I still could not understand what it is. Is it the MK2 ROM?
nvm. Got it. It'll turn my device back to stock image.
If that works, there is a way I can flash a pure 4.4.2 KitKat on my phone? Or "I337UCUFNB1 100% Stock Rooted ROM" is my best bet?

There is a guide below with all the answers you seek young Android flashing apprentice. Please slow down & read it thoroughly before flashing anything. Reading saves phones! If the method or rom you want isn't posted in the guide, it can't be done on your MK2 S4. All the roms that will work on MK2 firmware are listed as well as the way to flash the listed Kit Kat roms too. I recommend you try the At&t roms 1st instead of the international versions. Please thank the op in the threads that help you. Good luck. :fingers-crossed:

You can't flash any AOSP roms with safestrap, only Touchwiz based ones. Your bootloader is locked so it's impossible for you to flash any vanilla android or google edition roms.
The "I337UCUFNB1 100% Stock Rooted ROM" is basically stock GS4 Touchwiz firmware that is rooted.

CM to Stock Problems :(

Now i decided to get back to Stock ROM , but the Problem is that i have CyanogenMod 10.2 and before CM 10.2 i habe Stock ROM 4.4.2.
So now i searched in SamMobiles, SamDownload ... For Android 4.3.1 But i found nothing i'm only See 4.4.2 , 4.3....

Hey,
your latest stock rom was 4.4.2, right?
Then it doesn't make sense to flash a 4.3 firmware because that isn't really possible. And a 4.3.1 firmware doesn't exists I think but I'm quite not sure. But that isn't important, because your have to FG lash 4.4.2

[REQUEST]I9505 4.2.2 custom rom bootloader modified for downgrade from 4.4.2

Hii all, i have a I9505 where i must go back from 4.4.2 to 4.2.2. I know this is no simple cause bootloader is locked but i listen someone have modified the stock rom for fix the bootloader problem. Someone have this rom allredy cooked? I hope you can solve this
I would need this hack too. There is a mayor sound problem with bluetototh on 4.3 and 4.4.2.
On 4.2.2 there was no problem, so will be very good to possible downgrade

maybe if we are more people asking the same thing someone will care us
This will never happen. No developer is interested in downgrading their firmware to 4.2.2.
What you could try is to find an old custom 4.2.2. rom and flash that on your phone. Maybe it works and maybe it doesn't.
I found old 4.2.2 but the wifi isnt working. I am noob in modem versions

right but modem-firmware version will remain that of 4.4 the same when downgrade to 4.2
Hi.
Finally managed to test. I installed prerooted stock 4.2.2 via custom recovery. Then installed mobile odin and via this installed official stock 4.2.2. After that installed kernel link from upper posts and wifi (and everything else) works perfect. The only thing i need to do is reset counter with triangle away. It does not restart counter. It goes ok with reboot and confirm resetting, but when i check the counter still persist custom binary. If anyone can suggest me what to it would be perfect.
Later tonight i will post links which firmwares i installed.
