Brick S4 I9505, really NO SOLUTION??? €10 via Paypal to solve - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

€10 via Paypal to who really help me to solve this problem!
It's a promise!!!​
Hi, I've a serious problem with my S4 and I hope you can help me to solve it:good:...
I had a samsung stock 4.3 with frequent crash and soft reboot, so i decided to do a wipe (in setting menu), but nothing change.
Then I've flash the KK fw I9505XXUFNB8_I9505BTUFNB3_I9505XXUFNB8_HOME.tar.md5 without pit and re-partition, the process was complete without error but the phone wasn't started and remain stuck on Samsung Galaxy s4. In recovery there are these errors:
Recovery 3e
Philz Touch Recovery
I've retry many many many time to do a wipe data and cache in recovery, try to flash many other firmware with and without pit file, change recovery, flash in odin only pda and with 4 files with/without pit, but i can't find a solution...every time i've the same errors and the phone doesn't start...
If I poll out the battery for a long time (at least 5-6 hours), sometimes start with animated Samsung logo and music and with the control of the installed application, but during the progress it crashes and I must reboot :crying:
Thank you!!!
[sorry for my bad english]

You need to flash a 4.3 UNA4 for this device Links, You cannot flash a GT-i9505 since the product code for this device is GT-I9505DKYSER

Ok, because s4 black mist and s4 black edition are 2 different devices....when download is finished, finally i'll try...

i dont understand where the problem is ?
first of all you need to know your Model Number, for example : i9505, after that you search for an Odin Rom, like I9505XXUFNB8_I9505BTUFNB3_I9505XXUFNB8_HOME.tar.md5. Then you reboot your device in "DOWNLOAD mode", flash the Odin Rom via Odin and everything is fine...
Your problem is, you dont even know what device you got and you try to flash something you have found in here... thats really not that intelligent...

Yeah, you right. @Repulsa was pasting u this link, but Im not sure about coz I was reading this:
"This firmware build has the same changelist to the later update of the original Galaxy S4 LTE GT-I9505 with has the firmware build numbers I9505XXUEMKF. So again, those who got the dark-blue Black Mist and off-white White Frost Galaxy S4 I9505 variants should refrain from installing this firmware build for this is not for your LTE GT-I9505 devices. If you read somewhere else that this is an update for your device you may already have seen it on Kies or OTA. Kies will only tells you that you have the latest software update if you currently runs on Android 4.3 I9505XXUEMKF. Again, those who got the original GT-I9505 LTE, this update is only rolled out in Nordic regions for now, but let’s wait and see this coming few days if we may also have this update arrive in our areas."

Eyy, you dont get it, arent you ? I got the same device like you, an international S4 Black mist model number : i9505. Noone is talking about a black or red or yellow edition .... whats your model number ? remove your battery and look it up..
If you flashed this rom :

then you should be fine, cause i did it myself and everything was working correctly, so my next thought is that you dont even got the i9505, because this rom should work just like every other rom.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9500 Screen

Hi guys, Ive just bought a new Samsung Galaxy S4
I had the s3 and loved it but thought id get the S4, (I'm on the Three network UK If this helps)
Anyway with the s3 i rooted it, Installed CF Root, and siyah kernel and worked a treat
So when i had my S4 today i thought id root it, So i followed this video: youtube.com/watch?v=vlsO5o_-CI8 did everything and everything worked fine, then i thought oh ill put the siyah kernel on from here d-h.st/users/siyah/s3 and was completely in a daze didn't even read where it said s3 or anything (Yes i know im thick as two short blanks but i do apologize in advance) and when i flashed the siyah kernal it got stuck on the booting screen where it says Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9500 and nothing is budging it, nothing at all.
Anyway so i looked at troubleshooting things and here's what i have tried
*Taking Battery out
* Recovery mode (Power, Home and Volume Up button) clicked factory reset wipe data etc
So im out of options and in desperate need of help as i dont know what else to do so im desperate, i know im a dope for installing something but as i said i was in a daze and just doing it automatically which i know is no excuse but i am sorry.
So can anyone help as i do hope so,
Thanks in advance
Sorry Guys Its the Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-i9505 not the i9500, Its the i9505,
Apologies

it should, because you flashed wrong kernel,
if not, you have to flash the whole stock firmware
Nope the kernal didnt work, So gonna have to try the stock firmware,
that would should 100% work is it?

yes.
maybe you have a corrupted partition due to the wrong flash so you need a pit file with the firmware, see my signature for tutorial
Im reading it now you know where it says: Step 4) unzip the downlowded file (from second or third post), u will get a Home.tar file.
Where do i get that file from what second or third post?

in the same thread, see second post for official stock i9500 download and third post for I9505 stock firmware download

first flash the firmware as pda in odin, if odin gives you "no pit file" when flashing, so you must put I9505 pit file in odin as pit with the firmware as pda and flash. (all explanations are mentioned in my thread :good
Ok downloading the stock fw now ok, ill keep ya updated
thank you thank you thank you, ur a legend it works!!!

you can always just flash the stock rom again with odin as long as you can get into download mode but you loose your data.
are you on 4.4.2 kitkat ? because if so, you need a new version of twrp (or use cwm). there is an unoffical version that supports kk and also the original twrp will get an update soon. theres currently a test build, look at the official thread.
dont use it if you are still on 4.3 !
I really really wish people would search and read before messing with their devices... this is the 800th thread on this again.
Take your battery out, and wait for 60seconds, put back in and try to boot into recovery mode, wipe cache and boot up - OR reflash Stock again.
PS: If you have a Hong Kong Note, you need to go off and read... cause you've made a massive mistake playing.

[Q] 9505 No signal at all after flashing stock rom ..HELP

Hi I am from Israel, I have a Galaxy S 4 Model 9505 ..
Recently I downloaded version from sammobile .. and flashed it on the device , problems occur simply no reception and I have listed the top status bar just a circle with a diagonal line ..
For the avoidance of doubt the IMEI is ok, the device detects the SIM card and network.
Things I tried to do:
Flash modem according to the guide.
Flash the rom again
Change APN settings
Checked the sim on another device .. the sim is work fine.
What do I do next? Nothing I do is not helping!!!

Download latest KIES 3 from Samsungs website. Install it, restart PC. Plug in your S4 let install all drivers then click on Tools and choose Emergency recovery.
When I had issues in the past with my Samsung smartphones whis always helped me out.
After instalation finish, turn On your phone and let it boot up. DO NOT set it up, just do hard reset. You should be ok then.

Have you tried sammobile? If you want official firmware better check that site. Instructions are there too. Better find and match the proper Note 3 variant with what you have to what you are going to flash.

You're on 4.3 bootloader right, just so we clear. Try going to Android Dev thread and check Temasek CM11 build. His rom works on any bootloader, and since you're looking for an AOSP alternative.

i dont have any specific answer for your WHY.. i just know it works .. if i try flashing zzg1 only it gives random reboot with online video playback with youtube and other . i am going to try the efs partition fix and will tell you if it solve the reboot problem.. i think its due to Crupted efs will reply if it worked ..

Printed model is : SM-N9005
In about info phone model is : SM-N900S
The real model # can be found by putting the phone into download mode.

In that case SM-N900S
I recommend flashing the latest stock ROM for the sm-n900s with Odin.
The printed model # sm-n9005 is on the label under the battery?

yes ..
these are the ones i found
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note3/SM-N900S/
and only one works on it ..which is the one on the phone right now and it keeps rebooting .. i would like any nougat installed on this now.
Thanx
If the label under the battery says sm-n9005 and download mode says sm-n900s, it appears that you have a "frankenphone" whereby the phone is put together with different parts from different models of the Note 3.
Is this the ROM you tried to flash: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note3/SM-N900S/SKT/download/N900SKSU0GPI1/98062/ ?
Did you perform a factory reset after flashing the phone but before booting the phone for the first time?

Read and learn is next .
If everything works on a stock ROM, you try flashing TWRP using Odin. This will allow you to backup the existing ROM and flash a custom ROM.
