Hey guys, I bricked the s4. I can boot into recovery and download mode but even if I install any rom through recovery I go into a bootloop. I'm using the rom switcher recovery. Please help me.
And when I try to use Heimdall it detects the device but then it gives the above error.
I'm on Mac 10.9.1

First I am not s4 user but I faced sane issue with my s3.
I flashed stock rom via odin and everything is back to normal.
Be sure to clear data and cache after odin flash or else you will get bootloop.

Hi everyone, so my nexus 10 was working great about an hour ago. I'm rooted, I have CWM Recovery, I was running CM 10.2 and I wanted to try out CM 11.... So I downloaded the zip file, wiped my data, wiped cache and dalvik cache, went to install the update and got an error 7 and install aborted. So then I went to install my backup that I had just created and.... Md5 mismatch. I can't boot past the Google except for into CWM. I'm at a loss, what should I do?! I only have a mac computer and when I plugged it in, the computer wouldn't recognize it. Please help!!!!! Thanks.

Best advice I can give is to find a friend who has a Windoze system and use the Wugfresh toolkit to re-flash factory stock from fastboot:

I found a toolkit for Mac, got her up and running. Just installed CWM again and going to root now. Thanks everyone.

If it fails just download cm11 on the computer and adb sideload the ROM.

Everytime I try to install a rom or any zip file in cwm, it could all files and everything but towards the end it says error loky-fying or something like that. Thanks to this my device was stuck in a boot loop for a while. It installs like 1/4 of the rom. Enough to see the boot logo and then it reboots.
I also got this error installing the white display and see through notification panel. Although it is working fully.

Yes go back to stock and download freegee app in the market.. One click twrp install with the Loki bypass.. Easy as cake..cwm is poop
Cwm is poop, I agree lol
Will this delete app/user data? Flashing CWM did not
If so is there any known workaround at all?

Hi guys goodnight,
I need some help on this, I did a nandroid image backup using CWM recovery and I backed it up on my external card before I flashed a rom. I flash cm11 rom on my s4 and now want to go back to stock, so I reboot into Cwm recovery and went to restore backup. After the restore had finish I reboot the phone and it came on without no problems but when I unlock the phone a pop-up keep coming up every 5 seconds saying ........ "unfortunately.the.com.google.process.gapps.has stop working". Please I need some help I can't do nothing on my phone because of these popups
Do I need to wipe anything first before I restore?

First just flash newer gapps (search on google to get a download link)
If that doesn't work then wipe and restore

Gapps are google applications. So flashing the latest version of gapps will make sure that all the google applications are fine.
I consider data precious so wipe and reset is the last option I prefer as making and restoring backup takes hell lot of time

First fully charge your device.
Second flash a new fresh rom.
Or you just go in recovery and do a factory reset (whipe data, cache,)

What version of TWRP do you use? It sounds like your EFS could potentially be FUBAR'd........TWRP has the option to back up the EFS and if you have a TWRP backup it should have the EFS backup in it...check your backups to see if you have this. Give this a shot, it should fix the issue!!
If not, as he's recommending for the 'hard reset' it's under wipe and then advanced........just make sure that you have EVERYTHING backed up on a computer as this will erase all the data on your phone.
Try this:
Go to /efs/FactoryApp/
Open a file called factory mode.
It will probably say OFF. Edit to ON, save and reboot.
None of my back ups have EFS I forgot to click box it.

You don't have any efs folder in your phone now?
Go back to recovery and mount efs, then use twrp's built in file manager and browse to efs and see if it's empty. I don't think it is.

Hi .
Start all over again. Install your first (native) firmware via Odin . And then everything in order (root , recovery etc.)
