Galaxy S4 - No AUDIO

Hi there,
I have a Galaxy s4 i9505 4.4.2
I installed a google edition version and after that:
No audio at all, cannot play video, Audio cannot play, cannot make phonecalls. The screen freezes when I try to call someone. When someone calls me, I can't answer. The screen freezes...
I have tried a lots of roms but nothing seemed to solve the problem.
Any idea? :crying:
Thanks.

[Q] Galaxy S4 (i9505) bricked

Hi all,
I tried to update firmware of my GS4 using Odin (3.09) and an official Samsung S4 firmware 4.4.2 downloaded from SamMobiles. I've never had problem with this procedure... till today! The phone was on 4.3 Stock without any rooting or modification...
The flash procedure failed during flashing of system.ext4.gz file.
If I reboot the phone it says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again". Kies is unable to do anything: "GT-I9505 does not support initialisation".
If I put the phone in download mode I see:
ODIN MODE (in RED)
PRODUCT NAME: GT-I9505
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
KNOX KERNEL LOCK: 0x0
KNOX WARRANTY VOiD: 0x0
CSB-CONFIG-LSB:0x30
WRITE PROTECTION: Enable (in GRAY)
eMMC BURST MODE enabled (in GRAY)
No further flash is possible... I mean that Odin repeatedly fail at the same point.
I please ask someone to help me providing some procedure to recover my phone or a pointer to a web page explaining it... :crying:
thank you
Alvise

1. Take a look if u have the correct drivers installed
2. Tell me if your phone is locked or unlocked
3. Attach one screenshot of the ODIN error pls

Do you mean the USB driver in Windows ? I've Windows 8 x64, and I've installed Kies 3. I supposed that Kies installed the correct drivers, in fact Odin could correctly recognize the phone.

I'm from Italy, but I think it is not an "italian" device. the CSC was marked as (SMI) before the brick... Now unfortunately I can't boot it anymore and can't tell you further info about hardware and software...
Do you think I can get more info from serial number or other text written under the battery ?

keep retrying
Odin troubleshooting: If Odin accidentally gives you "fail" try the following:
- Repeat procedure.
- Make sure that all actions of Kies are disabled from task manager.
- Change usb port.
- Try another usb cable (make sure it is the original).
- Try another Odin version.
- Uninstall and re-install driver.
- Use pit file.
- Try another computer.

Dude, try to flash it with odin and this one-file stock ROM:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23622183712462437
After you flash, you will get boot loop. Then remove the battery for few seconds and put it again and go to stock recovery and do wipe data/factory reset.
If I did it, so you can too.

I want to go back, too. Will this trigger Knox?
