My phone S4 sprint
newest cyanogenmod 11 nightlies
So heres the problem
phone started off not making or receiving calls which was weird because i still go data 4g LTE... so i read somewhere that i have to go back to stock and update my PRL or something...im not sure whats its called but i would know what to do once I'm on the stock rom... but anyway thats not the main problem anymore. my main problem is when i tried to go back to stock with mobile odin my device did go to the last step that odin need to do it , which was to boot back up in stock recovery... so now my phone doesn't not boot at all.. I'm only able to get in in download mode i really need phone i tried taking it to to the sprint they are trying to say its water damaged which i know its not
Maybe its because i was on android 4.4. and i was try to go down to stock 4.2 or what it is
If you can get into download mode, go to a PC download the tar file and Odin it through your computer.

Depends on what you were on before, mf9, mja, or mk2?
Do you have knox?,

I have no clue, all i know is that i was running cyanogenmod 11
Boot your phone into download mode, look at the lines of text in the top left corner. If you see anything that mentions knox warranty then you were on MJA or MK2 and need to download either of those tar files, If you don't see anything that mentions knox warranty then you were on MF9 or older and you can download the MF9 tar to avoid the knox bootloader. If you do need the MK2 tar, here is the best download of the tar: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2601443

My galaxy s4 is rooted on 4.3 MK2 for the Sprint SPH-L720, the phone will no longer boot up because i flashed a wrong file. The phone will go into stock recovery, and download mode. Any ideas on what to do to fix?
Doesn't seem like you searched. If you can get into recovery try and flash a ROM if you have one in your memory, or wipe data and see I'd that boots your phone. If none of those two work you can Odin MK2 tar and that will bring your phone back to life.

Odin should not be failing unless its a bad download, your computer doesnt detect your phone , or there is the chance the phone itself is done.

What does odin say when you try to start the flashing of MK2 tar?

Odin detects my phone and goes all the way through till system image. than fails.
So i am downloading a different mk2 file but its taking forever and hopefully that works.
You need to use the newest Odin which is 3.09 if you are on MK2, also make sure you are running Odin as administrator. With 3.09 you put the tar file in the AP slot. Also, here is where you can find a fast download of MK2 that is known as good: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2601443
Here is a copy of Odin 3.09:

I would try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50667360
Go to the second post in the thread. Start with step 7. You'll want to side load the update.zip through adb. To do that you'll boot into recovery and side load the update.zip file. Follow the instructions to side load only.
Edit, if that doesn't work I would Odin the mk2 files again and attempt the ota again.

during the sideload i got an error message that read signature verification failed. I never thought it'd be so hard just to update my phone

It shouldn't be this hard. You have something funny with your phone. Why don't you try to Odin the mk2 files again.

Yes, that's the right file. And if odin didn't give you any errors then it flashed correctly. I'm kind of stumped right now. The nb1 update.zip you downloaded has an md5, did you check that to make sure the download was good?
EDIT, What a minute I see the problem. you need to use all 4 of the files. Put the AP file in PDA, BL in bootlaoder, CP in phone and CSC in CSC of odin.

the nb1 update zip has multiple folder including META INF, patch, recovery, and system. I cant find an md5, does that mean i have the wrong update zip?

No I ment the md5 check sum it's unique to the file and can be used to verify the file integrity. But see my edit above. That's the problem.

Tried to flash twrp recovery from rom toolbox pro and when I tried to boot into recovery, it boots into odin mode. Says could not do normal boot at the top. Won't boot to home screen and won't boot to recovery. How do I get my phone to boot back or do a factory reset and flash the stock firmware?
What firmware version are you on. If you're higher than mdl twrp won't work. You'll need to Odin back to what version you're on

I was on the latest firmware. Not sure what that was. How can I find the latest firmware to download? I saw a samsung link while I was searching for other threads but I can't seem to find it now.

Did you extract it? Use win rar or 7-zip. You need to end up with a .tar.md5 file

Safestrap is the only recovery you can use. Since you are on NB1 / NC1, you'll want v3.72.
More info can be found here...

I have been using a custom rom via safestrap for a long time with no problem. Recently, I went to upgrade my rom and in safe strap, I foolishly did not back up. I did a factory wipe, but then I went into advanced wipe where I would normally check dalvik cache and a couple others, but this time I inadvertently checked ALL the boxes, including microsd card. So, I deleted EVERYTHING.
I took my external sd card out and put it in the computer, then copied my rom .zip file over to it. When I rebooted the phone though, I just get to the SAMSUNG screen with the little padlock on it and the word "custom" underneath. I can't seem to access safestrap to flash the rom over again.
What are my options?
Thanks!
You wiped the os you so you have nothing to boot to. You'll need to use Odin to flash the stock firmware. Look for the nb1 tar file. Guut13 has a guide in the general forum to return to stock.

Here is place to get file. It is simple with Odin. Then you can take the OTA update to 4.4.4 if you want.

Hey, wouldn't I just want the NJ4 since it's the latest? Figured I'd ask since you must have a reason for suggesting what you did. Any info is appreciated!
