[Q] Help rogers Galaxy S4 stock roms

I tried to unroot and put a stock rom on my sgh i337m but the one I flashed does not allow me to use wifi and I cant restore from kies. It should be a rogers rom with 4.3.

I didn't really explain my situation well sorry. I went through all the steps to unroot my s4 but I ended up with slightly different firmware than what I originally had so wifi wont even turn on and kies does not detect the device at all. Right now I am reflashing to see if that helps.

The flash came up as fail on odin 3 times and I seem to be in the same place with no wifi. I found out the rom I got was not the correct rom because this one comes with alot more bloatware and some of the icons are different but it was the only one I could find that didnt fail when I downloaded it (I got suckered into trying to get a different one from the sites that have you pay for download speed).

Help! Brick?

K, I'm trying to fix my friends verizon note 3, it's stuck in dl mode with the error "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please use software Repair assistant & try again". Phone will NOT connect to kies, I get an error saying "This phone is not supported". My version of kies does see my att n3 just fine though. I can connect to odin it looks like. Cannot boot into recovery, it just boots into dl mode with the error message. Unknown how the phone got in this state.

If your in download mode and can get odin to recognize the phone then get the mje tar and Odin back to stock.

Is the phone on 4.3 or 4.4.2 right now? If 4.4.2 which one? The full odin sxtp leak or the rooted leaked build by Beanstown?
Edit. I see your not sure what's on the phone now.

No idea. Installed the pit file and can get into recovery and download now but wont boot. Phone hasn't booted since I got it. Here's what I have...

If it works then you can root and do the build by Beans and flash the firmware to get on rooted 4.4.2

downloading mj7 from here, I'm just in the dark about what I have on the phone, it just needs to be stock non-rooted. Didn't know if flashing the .tar would break it if I have a different firmware. I don't know how to find out if the phone won"t boot.

Cool let me know. It should work fine. The only reason it wouldn't is if it was on the unrooted 4.4.2 build.

Whut? Could it be? Ha ha, back from the dead. Only took about 6 hours total. Messed with kies for almost 3 hours before I gave up. Downloaded 2 versions of kies twice, drivers multiple times, 2 .tar files, tried 6 different usb cords...
Thanks for your help @Harleydroid, much appreciated.

firmware upgrade encountered an issue! Please help

I know I know there's been quiet a few threads about people screwing up and I'm one of them with a little different problem.
So I really appreciate your help
I have a second I9505 running great on XXUEND1 (almost instant GPS lock) and tried very hard to find this modem to flash on my second I9505 but couldn't find it.
So I thought "lets download the stock which will change the modem, and then restore nandroid" Yes I have a TWRP nandroid I made just before this screw up
So I downloaded this stock from sammobile http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/28734/I9505XXUEND1_I9505TELENC1_TEL
I was on:
GPE 4.4.4
Modem: I9505XXUGNK4
Baseband: I9505XXUGNK4
Loaded the stock firmware in PDA/AP and flashed. FAIL!
Now I can get into download more only (no twrp)
I've attached the screen of Odin 3.09

Any help guys? I'm getting nervous here...

The cable should be the stock one and should not be on a hub. Try a different port on the computer, and do not panic. The fact you can get into download mode still means all hope isn't lost.
EDIT: You posted this question twice, with the second location being a development thread, where it really doesn't belong. You received a response there as well: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59386461&postcount=18244 . In the future don't cross post, no matter how desparate you are.

Thank you, it's directly connected to a port that I've flashed with many times.
I even tried other ports but still same thing.
Did I do wrong by trying to flash the 4.3 from 4.4.4? Or is that asking for trouble?
What else can I do?

not sure but it might be partitions (.pit file) - for example one was too short and write failed due to no space left
try flashing the one you were using before (or at least 4.4.2).

Yes I'm sorry about that. I was really starting to freak out.
Anyhow, I've managed to flash a 4.4.2 with modem and baseband XXUGNH6. I've also flash the latest twrp. But I would still very much love to complete what I wanted to do in the first place. Which is flashing XXUEND1.
I couldn't find it anywhere as a flashable and I couldn't downgrade to 4.3 which is where it is.
Could you guys please help me get this done?
Cheers

not sure if you have .pit file included in package downloaded form sammobile (the one for 4.3) but if so - add .pit and tick re-partition, while flashing 4.3 as you tried before.
re-partition, if it will include data partition will erease all your data - backup your movies, photos, etc before proceeding.

Thanks mate,
Just managed to get it back to normal bu flashing 4.2.2, then downgraded to 4.3 XXUEND1.
Now the build is showing as XXUEND1. However the bootloader and baseband stayed at XXUGNH6!
IS it possible to flash XXUEND1 modem/baseband on this now?
I've tried compiling the modem flashable but aren't savvy enough! So here are the files if it's possible to flash
Modem: https://mega.co.nz/#!HRNHQZob!WLfbPp...ZHF7pAd5HmC00U
NON-HLOS: https://mega.co.nz/#!iVFjWCZI!jcUyjN...WP8kfnQZbIxDi0

Those links ask for password - not sure what would that be
You can always extract modem and non-hlos form your XXUEND1 package downloaded from sammobile and flash them separately via Odin as in here:

sprint l720t OD2 rom
I am trying to find a OD2 odin flashable rom to fix my s4 and can only find the .zip files for flashing in recovery or the odin for the l720 and i need to l720t flash.
The recovery on the device is gone and i cannot get it to come up in kies to do a emergency flash.

I attempted to flash this firmware to my SPH-L720 and Odin 3.07/3.09 both gave me a PIT error message and the flash failed. I attempted to use a PIT file I found, used the repartition option in Odin but even after using that the OD2 flash still fails. Could someone point me in the correct direction to the proper PIT file for OD2 or upload one for me? Or, point me in the right direction on how to get this flash to complete with Odin?
Thank you very much!

I tried doing this.
Instructions:
1. Download and Extract tar above and download Odin
2. Put phone into download mode (power off, then power button + Volume Down, then volume up when prompted)
3. Open Odin (right click > open as administrator)
4. Load stock tar into the PDA slot
5. Start flashing
6. Grab some popcorn because it will take a while
7. Profit
I downloaded the odin file. After extracting I got two files - an MD5 and an extension file. My phone is plugged in to my laptop. My phone is showing the android logo and says "downloading... Do not turn off target!!"
When I try and follow the instructions given, at #3 I get stuck. I can't "open as administrator" - there is no option. I'm running windows 7.
I did not change the file name or anything. Am I doing something wrong? Missing a step? I am a bit of a noob but I can read and follow instructions.

I figured out what the issue was. Even though I was using a brand new Samsung cable... I changed both the cable and the computer(9 years old) I was using. Doing so allowed me to bring the phone back to life and flash this along with the modem after the reboot using Odin. Thanks for putting this up on the site!

How long should this tar take to flash? I saw in the other thread a line about it taking awhile but its been on writing system for a good 45 minutes. I've never flashed anything in Odin that took longer than 5 minutes so just curious if I should abort or let it keep rolling along.

Is the OP still fresh? I just got this Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4 SPH-L720T yesterday and good ol' Sprint aint what she use to be? Are the golden days of the SPH-D700 & 710 behind us? I'm not new to flashing but, it has been a while.. I saw someone post they flashed this and a modem. Then I seen some other posts talking about bootloaders? Do we have to play Legos with getting stock firmware now? I remember having multiple nandroid backups of CM, PacManROM,SlimBean, AOKP.. Things sure have changed a lot..
But, back to my original question, is the OP good for stock firmware or do we need to piece together bootloaders and such? I really want to root and flash some custom ROMs but, the beauty of the Epic 4G was that you could just go back to a fresh slate in a matter of seconds. Seems like a lot of the "stock" ROMs here are pre-rooted and pre this and pre that..

I just flashed the L720T and everything went perfectly. Nothing seems out of place..

just got my edge and ya.... i brokeded it

so i followed the instructions here on how to flash 935U to my verizon variant and i cant get the ODIN process to work. keis and smart switch tell me my phone isnt supported because i tried to restore the phone.. help please. i followed the instructions which are simple to follow. i put my phone in download mode. started odin and loaded all the files and it failed. what can i do now.. waiting for the stock firmare to dowload now but its taking forever

oh and just incase this is why. im on a mac running windows 10 bootcamp. maybe i dont have some drivers needed ?

Head to sammobile and get the official 935v firmware again, or download through samfirm. Make sure you have ODIN 3.12 and leave the phone unplugged and in dl mode. Unzip the fw files and place them in the appropriate boxes (bl, ap, cl, csc) and once they are all in Odin plug your phone in. If the box goes blue as recognized you are hits to press start. Tart will get you back to original asks try again.
And get a pc, lol

thanks for the reply
i have a pc but i am at school for 2 months without it.. i booted windows just to get by for now.
i downloaded the firmware from sammobile and it may have been currupt becasue it didnt work as well. i am worried but i dont think its hardbricked. i just cant seem to figure out why i cant flash the 935U FW

I wouldnt worry about U. Get V back up and then there is whole separate U thread here with a lot of tweaks. If anything else, look at the PH1 firmware thread (may be under beta thread) and try flashing that, then update to PI3.

are there steps i am not informed on like do certain files need to be in folders together or do i need to run something that was left out in the instructions? i have rooted and flashed with odin before and it always seems to be an interesting experience to say the least. but seriously im getting soooo pissed off right now

yeah tried odin 3. 12 with stock firmware.. put the home file in and the other 3 files in the right places.. still failed.. any other advice?

putting all these files on a flash drive and taking them over to a regular pc to see if this helps.. im really at a loss. this should be EASY right now seriously easy. how am i screwing this up!

tried another computer... didnt work. tried different files and methods.. nothing works.. tried verizon repair tool...joke..... tried everything.

It sounds like Odin/PC is not seeing the phone when it's plugged in. Do you have the Samsung drivers loaded?

it was seeing it when i plugged in.. and it would say so in the log.
suprisingly the verizon repair tool brought it back to life. it restored it to factory settings and firmware.. i want to root but im worried it wont take again
