So first off im gonna start off and say that I dont really care about being rooted in the first place. I thought id be flashing a lot more stuff but It turns out that I never flashed anything. So on my phone as of now I just have root and I have twrp installed onto it. I did that process to take off the custom recovery status from using motochopper as well. Now my problem is that every time i try to take the ota I get booted right into twrp and then i am unable to take the update. I even downloaded the zip file and tried flashing it and I just get a failed message. Can anyone tell me whats going on? Or point me into the right direction so i can uninstall twrp so I can take the update?
Odin back to stock, then do a factory reset in settings.

Well actually I have one more question. Arent I already stock? I havent even flashed another rom. I literally just got root status and put twrp recovery on it. Do I still need to use odin?

You say you are rooted, then do a factory reset, and un-root, then you will be able to get the update.

Like axman said, flashing with Odin to stock nothing gets deleted. If you do a factory wipe, everything gets deleted.
You could also try to update with kies instead of ota. Maybe that will work.
The problem is not that you removed root you still are using a custom recovery you need to get back to full stock use odin to get the phone back to full stockso you'll have a stock recovery

So I have been trying to get multiple roms to work and it seems as only the TouchWiz roms worked for me (getting LTE) Jellybean wouldn't let me connect to any LTE but gave me data.
So I tried to do a few wipes, I deleted my backups (like an idiot) and now I'm stuck with just being able to get into TWRP.
I get into TWRP factory reset and wipe everything then do a internal wipe and install a rom the rom installs but when i go to reboot the rom it gets stuck at the Samsung Galaxy s4 screen and won't move.
What do I do?
I just want to have a jellybean rom...
I can get into TWRP
How long have you let it boot? The first boot can take a long time.

You need to read about TWRP before using it. You should not be wiping "everything" with it.

Can you get into download mode? If so you might want to odin the stock firmware.

yeah i can i never used odin before.
if i do this will i be able to re-root? or will it update me to mf3?
EDIT: i just let it sit there and got my old recovery back. im on tw 4.2.2 goldeneye. let me check if i can reboot it without it getting stuck.
EDIT2: ok i just let it reboot and it now reboots fine..
I have read 3 of your posts, you really need to start reading before you go any further...if your phone boots on 4.2.2 GoldenEye, stop there until you find more information on what you are trying to do. If you don't you will for sure be using Odin soon, may want to read up on that also...
Good luck.
BTW, you do not need to make a different thread for every question, go back to one of the threads you started, and ask ALL of your questions there...
My phone used to have Arrow rom installed. Now I am trying to flash the stock rom 4.2.2 back through odin, now stuck on Samsung Logo, does anyone how to fix that? There are many 4.2.2 roms for download from different country, I don't know which one will work.

did you wipe data and cache after flashing?
no, right after flash with odin, now it is stuck on Samsung screen. Should I goto recovery mode and wipe data and cache? Then see if it boots up ?

Why dont you flash a 4.2.2 from your country then ? Try this first . Remove ur battery for 10 sec and put it back . Then press and hold power+volumeup in order to reach recovery . Then wipe cache/factory reset then reboot. Have a nice day.

I have the same issue but my phone refuses to go into Recovery. I'm attempting to flash stock UK ROM via Odin. I didn't do a full factory wipe beforehand, didn't think I had to but wondering now whether I should have?.......have I bricked my S4? I can get into Download mode if I press Vol Up quickly or it reboots instantly, very strange.
Anyone got any thoughts how I might fix this?
Hello, i'm here for helping my friend. My friend's HH is Galaxy 4, bought at Guang Zhou China. Official Samsung China. After went to Mt.Bromo,may that's too cold, the problems are :
HH suddenly can't booting. Just appear until logo samsung and then suddenly off.
Can't launch stock recovery mode (vol up+home+power)
but CAN launch download mode (vol down+home+power).
HH can't appear status of charging when it's charge but maybe the battery is charging. Maybe.
All are still official. Maybe Android 4.2.2, but can't sure.
Anyone can help me fix this phone? Step by step please help...Thanks all
Please i alredy post on another room, but didnt get help
i tried flashing the stock firmware using odin but it gives me bootloop
I am using I9505XXUHOD7/I9505EVRHOD1/I9505XXUHOD7/I9505XXUHOD7
Samsung galaxy s4 5.0.1 EE
Obviously you did something wrong.
Custom roms don't count as official software updates/upgrade. Meaning that it won't lock your phone to that particular android version.
Remember to wipe before flashing.
i forgot to do this before but I just wiped and tried again and still get bootloops
EDIT: thank you bro im just not patient and it worked
What did you do? I have the same problem. I'm on a bootloop. please give me step by step instructions. Thanks. I have i9505 from Philippines on globe telecom network.
Thanks in advance.

Yeah, whenever I install Custom ROMs I get nervous during the initial boot (hoping its not going to be a bootloop) hahaha.
Nowadays I literally get a timer out and countdown 15 minutes (15 minutes out of personal experience is ample.....)
If I don't get that "optimizing app x of xxx" message by then, thats when I retrace my steps to look for errors.
I guess all I can say for all you guys above is..... don't forget to do a nandroid backup!!
