Hi! I'm newly registered to these forums and i'm posting my problem here because I hope you guys can help me out i've tried everything!
I'm on Bell Canada provider LTE on a Samsung I337 Galaxy S4 and updated to KitKat 4.4.2. Since the update my apps are getting closed saying my phone overheats and I can only use Phone and Contacts. I figured this happens only when going on LTE. I stay on the internet for about 10-15 seconds then it happens and im locked for a good 30 seconds and its stays like that until I get back to Wifi. Being on wifi doesn't trigger the alert.
I've tried wiping my data , doing a system recovery. I even tried rolling back to 4.3 but that didn't work too well. I need to desactivate this security feature or remove it. You guys are my last hope!

I've been using the s4 since it came out and ive never seen it heard of anything like that. I'm on an att version and have been on 4.4.2 for awhile. Did you do the official ota or is it a custom rom?
Sounds like a kernel issue to me. Are you using any apps that are hard on the CPU at the time like heavy gaming? Which shouldn't even cause that but it does warm up a bit.
I would look into rooting and flashing a custom rom if it was the official update. But that will trigger the new knoxed boot loader and void your warranty. So there is that option which will most likely fix the issue. Or if your still under warranty and don't want to void it contact Samsung or your contract carrier and see if they will fix or replace your phone which could take some time.

If you haven't rooted the phone and it's either less than a year old or you have extended warrenty, I would take it back to Bell. If the phone is rooted then I would say you have a bad flash of the rom (only guessing because you don't say if you did the OTA stock update or you flashed it) I flashed one rom that made my phone hot but I quickly did recovery back to the older rom.

Hi thanks for the answer, I did put the original official OTA 4.4.2 provided by my carrier and my cell warranty/knox warranty is gone. I'm only using chrome to navigate on the web when its happening so my only option is to try custom kernels not too sure which to pick I wanna have a stable like official one. I've never used any custom kernels before. Any idea what causes that force close?

There is definitely an issue with your install... see my post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51448767#post51448767 it is number 3, suggest you read up a bit before diving head first into this... unless you have installed a custom recovery, rooted and installed a rom before. Mapleleaf is as close to stock as you can get.... if you choose twrp, don't use 2.7 see if you can get 2.6 I have seen a few people have problems with that version.... twrp is device specific so make sure you install the right one..... read up on the too.....

I've tried different roms and kernels and its still doing it. I need to basicly desactivate or remove the security feature of the phone but I can't find whats controlling it, If anyone has an idea let me know. Until then no mobile data for me. My phone is rooted so i'm open to any ideas but customizing my phone still triggers the alert. 4.3 was not doing it at all. So something is new since the update.

Thanks for providing the link to here. We should take your issue out of the other thread which deals with nb1 down grade. Your issue is that a lot is not working when you flash the stock firmware? What exactly is the problem?

As seen on the screenshot, whenever i'm on an app. Android system just closes every apps im using and locks the phone for a good 30 seconds saying it overheats. I can only use Phone and apps whil this occurs. That all started when upgrading to Android 4.4. Before that phone was very stable. Its all on stock firmware too. I've tried different roms too, still the force closing occurs. Back to 4.3 i had never seen this thing happen.

Boy, this is a tough one. Using Odin to go back to 4.3 should have fixed the problem unless its a coincidence that the overheating started when you upgraded to 4.4. Even when you Odin back to 4.3 or earlier you still have the overheating problem? Just want to confirm that

No I don't, But LTE is gone. so I cannot verify that 100%. i've used the phone for several months before the update and was working like a charm. The second the OTA 4.4 was installed it showed and my problems started.

Ok, for the lte issue have you checked that the apn is set up correctly? You can Google your carrier's apn settings to see what they should be.

You need to check which bootloader your on before you try going backwards..... NC1 is 4.4, MK6 is 4.3 ..... there are instructions on here somewhere on how to check your bootloader version through terminal.... I think it was either in trouble shooting or developement.... just do a search. If your bootloader is hogher than the version you are trying to go to .... I think your out of luck..... although you could Google it and see..... something like downgrade NC1 bootloader to MK6....... maybe
Or download phone info from play store... it tells you the bootloader version.....

Unfortunately you are stuck on 4.4.2 or higher..... most of what I have read says you can't downgrade the bootloader unless you can check with some of the devs. I did a Google search but all that I found was it isn't reversable.

hello! can someone please help me with my galaxy s4 GT-i9505. I really need your help on this!
this is what happened,
a few days ago, I Got my phone unlocked from its carrier GLOBE here in Philippines.
the tech flashed it with older firmware before unlocking my phone. all went well after that.. but my phone was running an older firmware since the tech flashed it with older firmware before unlocking it.
the next day, I decided to flash it and upgrade with the firmware I9505XXUDMH8 from this website http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/504394/20130907/galaxys4-gti9505-official-android422-xxudmh8-jellybean-update.htm
all went well after that. but I encountered problems on rooting and flashing with custom kernel. I've learned that the firmware I flashed from this http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/504394/20130907/galaxys4-gti9505-official-android422-xxudmh8-jellybean-update.htm website includes Samsung KNOX which they say can cause rooting problems and etc.
knowing all that stuff, I decided again to revert to an earlier version of android 4.2.2 for gt-i9505 which is the I9505XXUBMG5 which I got from sammobile.com. hoping to stay clear of the KNOX rooting issues.
when I tried to flash the I9505XXUBMG5 firmware with odin 3.07, it said FAILED and now I can't basically use my phone. I'm stuck on "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
I tried flashing back the I9505XXUDMH8 which I got from here http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/504394/20130907/galaxys4-gti9505-official-android422-xxudmh8-jellybean-update.htm but it still fails!! why???
I've read somewhere that the latest firmware I9505XXUDMH8 that contains KNOX can cause issues when you would try to downgrade to an earlier firmware.
I've just read that thing after I flashed to an earler version. hohohoh. has anyone been in this situation?
please help! I hope someone could help me on this. all insights will be greatly appreciated. thank you in advance!
Go to recovery and factory reset, should fix it.
If not Just flash MH8 again in Odin and then factory reset.

1, Make sure u have no Kies programme running in the background kill all that and try flashing the firmware using odin
2 , if that does not wrk try flashing with "pit" file along and see the result make sure to use the correct pit file or use the link Here
Also try some different latest stock firmware u have it available
One suggestion don't panic all will be fine I have been to this situation more then 6 times using different galaxy devices all were recovered
U can also use the help thread link on my sign

UPDATE! problem SOLVED
thank you for all your responses. I've figured out the problem and found the culprit.
It was the USB ports of the PC I was using to flash the phone.
FIX: I tried flashing the phone from my gf's laptop with the MH8 firmware and wallah!! odin did not show any fail and I was able to use my phone back..
after everything went fine, I tried flashing back the UBMG5 firmware just for the heck of it. then ODIN showed failed. so I flashed back again to MH8 firmware and everything went OK again..
FOLLOW up Questions:
1. can't we really go back to an older firmware version?
2. I wonder what was causing my phone to constantly disconnect from the USB port. but in my gf's laptop seems to be ok and working
(I have tried it from two PC's.. it disconnects on my pc at home and my work pc)

You are stuck with MH8 firmware, worse you have KNOX and can't use all those neat little apps that require system access to run.... Even if rooted...
The new bootloader that Samsung released is REALLY going to kill Samsung support in this community. Bit stupid really as most of the latest features on their new phones started out as an idea on this site by people who wanted more out of their phones and worked out how to do it....

damn. we'll i'm still hoping some developer would find a work around about this knox issue.
Same thing happened to me with MH6 (Singapore)
So here's the thing - I have a mild vision impairment and having bold fonts throughout the entire OS helps a lot. I've always used "MyFont" to change the UI font to Akzidenz Grotesk Bold (gorgeous font, really)
So anyway the MH6 update broke MyFont - something KNOX related I suppose - it couldn't apply the font changes anymore, even though it worked perfectly fine on stock unrooted MG5 firmware
So I dug up my old XXMEA firmware, Odined my phone... then I had the worst "bricking" experience I ever had
a. Couldn't make calls (black screen)
b. No sound output from speakers whatsoever (no boot sound, no touch tones, the phone doesn't "beep" when adjusting the volume, etc)
c. Erratic connectivity to H+
d. WiFi unable to turn on
e. Very unresponsive UI
So I updated to MH6 through Kies (on another PC), wiped data, and then it refused to get past the "Samsung Galaxy S4" screen - it just hung there. I flashed broodplank's vanilla 4.3 over it, and managed to at least boot up (albeit with the same issues). THEN I noticed that the baseband was still MEA - which meant that Kies kinda failed as it upgraded ONLY the main firmware but not the modem - perhaps that's why it wouldn't boot up?
After many hours of trial and error - I managed to get my phone back in working order.
1. Flashed XXUDMH6 modem
2. Downloaded XXUDMH6 (MM1, my telco) from samsung-updates.com, Odined it
3. Success
But it's kinda disheartening that Samsung "locked down" the phone with these latest updates.. what a shame. Definitely getting a Nexus when my contract is up.. even though here in Singapore they're overpriced
Hope this helps anybody stuck in the same scenario - the gist of it is.. if you want your phone to work properly, you can't downgrade your firmware. Kinda like Apple.

Thank you adrian - I had exactly the same problems after I tried to re-install an older stock rom after the Knox install.
I had no wifi, the phone dialler would show a black screen and would crash the phone, plus i no longer had any system sounds.
This was down to an incorrect baseband and firmware combination that needed to be reflashed via Odin in the order that you mention in your post.
I have a German Telekom.de SGS4 and now have the following config:
Baseband I9505XXUDMH9
Kernel 3.4.0- 1220396 [email protected] #1
Build number JDQ39.I9505XXUDMH9
SELinux status: Enforcing
Thank you!

THEN I noticed that the baseband was still MEA - which meant that Kies kinda failed as it upgraded ONLY the main firmware but not the modem - perhaps that's why it wouldn't boot up?
After many hours of trial and error - I managed to get my phone back in working order.
1. Flashed XXUDMH6 modem
2. Downloaded XXUDMH6 (MM1, my telco) from samsung-updates.com, Odined it
3. Success
But it's kinda disheartening that Samsung "locked down" the phone with these latest updates.. what a shame. Definitely getting a Nexus when my contract is up.. even though here in Singapore they're overpriced
Hope this helps anybody stuck in the same scenario - the gist of it is.. if you want your phone to work properly, you can't downgrade your firmware. Kinda like Apple.

Means u cant downgrade no more bro. Once you have updated to a newer firmware, it also means that ur bootloader has also been changed.
So when u try to downgrade, u are only downgrading the firmware. But the bootloader still stays the same which only works for the latest firmware u've flashed. This might explain why some things i ur fone doesnt work after the downgrade.
Hope this answered ur question
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA mobile app
Well first off i'm going to have to make some apologies, i am a noob and i have made some very noobish mistakes i hope you will be kind forgive my stupidity and possibly even fix my mistakes.
I will try and provide as much information as i can hopefully that will help.
I have a S4 GT-I9505 which has been rooted with custom roms pretty much since the day i had it, very stupidly i didn't make a backup of my my phone while it was on stock (yup stupid i know). after going through many roms i settled on Omega 4.3 after some time i noticed apps like PVZ 2 wouldn't run on the device so i decided i would return to stock 4.3 and see if they worked then.
I looked in to a few guides for how to unroot the S4 and after following them i failed, each firmware i tried failed (possibly i tried the wrong ones) firmwares i have tried
BTU-I9505XXUDMH8-20130904171444
XEF-I9505XXUEMKF-20131130113349
GT-I9505-BTU-I9505XXUAMDM
I9505XXUEMK8_I9505O2UEMK1_O2U
One firmware i tried that did take then wouldn't turn on the wifi it remained grey. after some time i decided just to restore my backup of omega 4.3 since then my phone crashes when i try to make calls the screen turns black vibrates and remains black until it crashes to desktop or i turn the phone off. deciding i must have messed up quite badly i have spent the last 3 days reading XDA topics and posts trying to find a fix but nothing seems to work. i found this topic which seems to resolve the issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2443020 after downloading a firmware ending in "H8" (BTU-I9505XXUDMH8-20130904171444) and trying to use it in odin (3.09 3.07 and 1.3) i get this error

<ID:0/004> aboot.mbn

i have checked kies is disabled via task manger, run odin in admin mode and tried multiple versions of odin i am at a loss
i have also noticed that my phone says this on boot.
"kernel is not seandroid enforcing"
"set warranty bit kernel"
i looked in to it to find out it doesn't seem to be a linked issue but hey the more information the better right.
I am very much at your mercy any help you can offer would be much appreciated
Ur latest firmware available is HERE
U need flash it with Odin 3.09 and I think all will go ok. Anyway if u have problems with ur WIFI is maybe u still having wrong MODEM. U will have to flash "new" modem then. How?
1. The correct modem for the new firmware is HERE
2. Steps for flash it
- Use Odin v3.09
- Untick Autoreboot
- Flash modem
- Reboot manually into Download Mode using (Vol Down plus Home button combi)
- Flash Modem once more
- Once done, unplug then reboot device manually.
- If this doesn't work, try repeating the flash process again while rebooting manually and with auto-reboot option turned off.
3. If u still without wifi, try this wifi fix
- Open in Odin as PHONE!!
- WiFi FIX: HERE
thanks
thank you very much
I had to install the firmware twice and wipe a few times but it worked you are my personal hero.
thank you for your time and help have a great day
Hey guys!
This is my very first post here. I have been an active "guest" on this website over several years as I was always able to find answers to any questions I had here. But today I have finally reached a dead end road so I had to resort to finally creating an account to ask a question.
Phone info:
Canadian Samsung Galaxy S4 (Rogers) SGH-I337M
CM 11-20151004-NIGHTLY-jflte
Android 4.4.4
Baseband I337MVLUAMG1
Kernel 3.4.104-cyanogenmod-g8b03f0c [email protected] #1
Problem #1:
I haven't had any phone service in over a year now, I've just been on wifi. Over this time, I've been updating CM every now and then. I now have gotten a contract with my phone provider again, they gave me a sim card I put it in, it works... kind of. Connection to the network stays only until I lock the phone (or it locks it self due to inactivity), swipe to unlock and service is gone, I get an icon saying "no service (rogers wireless) unavailable". It sometimes comes back on its own, and goes again. I have tried every possible solution I could find online and nothing seems to work. APNs are fine, ive double checked that they are correct. I've seen some posts suggesting that CM11 couldve screwed up my modem somehow but no other information I could find on that.
Problem #2:
So 2 days later (so much for my weekend) I have decided that maybe I should just dump CM and go back to original firmware. I found several tutorials and read them before doing anything, seeing what potential problems I can run into. Everything seemed straight forward. So I have downloaded the right firmware (5.0.1 for my phone from SamMobile) and decided to give it a go. I've tried it twice now and Odin keeps saying;
<ID:0/025> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<ID:0/025> Added!!
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

Luckly I haven't completely bricked my phone, it still boots into damn indestructible (buggy) CM! But I am just a bit out of luck I guess, I am really frustrated as I am paying for phone contract now but cannot use it to call or text. This might be a rookie question, but I no "flashing stock firmware tutorials" have provided many guidelines on whether I have to format anything though recovery mode before flashing stock firmware, just gets straight to it. Maybe its common sense? But I really dont know any better. So its a bit of a two way road now, a solution to either of the problems would be greatly appreciated. I hope I have provided enough information, please don't judge this is my first post here and I have looked for answers before posting.
In advance, huge thanks!
Use the original cable, and move it to another port. Sometimes Odin is picky about these things.
Good day everyone. I joined this forum with the hope of finding solution to my seemingly unfixable S4 GT-i9500. I initially had a stock lollipop 5.0.1 China version flashed on it using odin because I was not patient for my region's to be released. Eventually when my region's version was released I tried flashing it using odin and my phone got bricked. I've tried almost all methods posted online in order to solve the problem but I'm yet to make a head way. Whenever I'm flashing the firmware it will get stuck at "system.img" then fail. I've tried doing it several times even with different firmwares but the same problem persists. I've tried connecting to kies (different versions) to complete the upgrade but it wouldn't connect.
Whenever I take it to download mode this is what shows on my screen
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME - GT-I9500CHN
CURRENT BINARY- Samsung official
SYSTEM STATUS- Custom
Secure download- Enabled
KNOX WARRANTY VOID- 1

Whenever I flash the ROM using odin I get the following log

Thanks for your swift responses and your immeasurable help, if I can hook you up I will buy you a drink, you don't know how happy you made me. I still have some questions though. I initially downloaded a china version 5.0.1 (I9500ZCUIOH2_I9500CHNIOH2_CHN) which I flashed several times after my region's failed but it didn't work while the one you posted (I9500ZCUJOH2_I9500CHNJOH2_CHN) worked. What is the difference between the 2 firmwares? Also if I want to flash my region's how can I go about it? Because most of the functionality of the phone is Chinese so I can't utilize it's function 100%.
Please indulge my inquisitiveness. Thanks.

I've installed the apps there is nothing under "available CSC codes". Does that mean I can't flash other firmware aside the current one? If I can how will I go about it?
Also since the return of my phone from the land of the dead the google play store have not worked. It's keep crashing and whenever I open it always shows "check your connection and try again". I've tried phone data and wifi, clear cache, force stop, uninstall and re-installed it but its still the same story. Please what do you suggest? Thanks for your immeasurable help. :good:

I've got a bigger problem Joku!
Aside the fact that Google Play service still won't work on my phone another problem had ensued. It started with frequent crashing of few applications on my phone and now graduated to frequent restarting and restarting. Whenever it restarts the battery will go from whatever percentage it was to 0%. I tried factory reset, cleared cache, uninstall updates, disable auto sync among other things but the situation keeps getting worse. Now the phone barely stays on, it is always rebooting/restarting and it is becoming almost useless. Please your help is urgently needed.

I've done that as instructed but there is neither a pre-installed google play services nor a google play store on my phone. I went online to try and download some google play services apk files but I keep getting the error message 'there is a problem parsing the package' which I'm sure it's because it is incompatible with my phone because I already allowed 'install from unknown sources'. please can you give me an apk link that will surely be compatible with my phone?

Dear XDA-Developers members,
I have an issie with my Galaxy S5 900f. I have installed XtreStolite Rom for this device. But i was getting process stop errors of every applications on the phone. I though i can use wipe data option in the TWRP Recovery mode to solve this problem, but i got there an error that reactivation lock on the phone was enabled. Then i have downloaded the latest firmware on Sammobile the original one. I have flashed my device using Odin but then the phone asks me to enter the samsung account which i dont have. I havent added this phone to any samsung account. I went to Samsung Experince store to solve this problem but they said that an illegal software was installed on this phone therefore they cant solve this problem. They saw this on the Knox warranty void 0x1 (2) text which you can find in the download mode of this phone. Now i cant use my phone anymore bcz, i cant bypass the samsung account screen.
Can anyone help me with this issiue?
regards,

You're going to have to flash a Stock KitKat ROM with ODIN, from sammobile .com
Log into all accounts, and then disable reactivation lock
I've PM'd a mod about getting a warning added to that ROMs thread, as this is getting ridiculous now
I have also tiried to install the kit kat rom but when i enter download mode of the phone i see Reactivation Lock : ON and after installation the phone doesnt start anymore. It hangs on the Samsung logo but dont boot.

Sure you were in Download Mode and not Recovery?
Yes, it will say reactivation lock is enabled, because it is, and this is how to disable it
This is a tried and proven method to disable reactivation lock, keep trying, and make sure you are in the correct mode, with correct drivers, and ODINs latest version
Unless you are one of the unlucky few who can not flash stock ROMs.... which is why this custom ROM is a disgrace and should be removed
Another member had luck flashing that Xtre.... ROM again from TWRP, and disabling reactivation lock during setup of that ROM before it reaches the homescreen

Just a quick check, the phone says G900F in Download Mode?
As long as it does, flash this PIT file at the same time as the ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2721101&d=1399024091
Extract the PIT file to .PIT, and add to the PIT section
Flash PIT and ROM together in ODIN

If it still won't boot, try booting to recovery, and factory reset / clear caches

Great, OK, well try creating a new account, and log in with that
Make sure you're logged in with your Google account too, and update everything, maybe something the samsung account needs is out of date
Do not update the ROM yet though, it needs to stay on KK until you disable reactivation

Found this, give it a shot:
- Go to Samsung web (account.samsung.com) to login if you have an account.
- Click profile and then on the unsubscribe button after login. This will remove your login details from Samsung.
- Come back to the Galaxy settings and click accounts and sync.
-Click add account. Then click Samsung and signup again as a new user.

Thats just the problem. I cant go to settings bcz the phone is still on the first configuration screen when you install a new rom or unpack it. I cant finish the first configuration without entering a samsung account. And if I enter a samsung account i only get Processing Failed error.

Great
That ROM has been removed and closed, so hopefully it doesn't happen to anyone else
How did you manage to get KitKat to flash in the end? (Just for anyone else who finds this thread)
After installing the stock firmware i have wiped data using recovery. Then it goes on So if someone else hangs on the Samsung Logo, you can just wipe data and factory reset in the recovery menu, en it will work..

Thanks, Good stuff
Hi,
i have bypassed SM-G903F Google Account !!! I think its works on others too!!
you need a USB-OTG Cable , than the oldest Firmware you can found ,i used G903FXXU1AOH4_DBT1AOG4_Germany_5.1.1 this!!!
Flash it with Odin!!!!
Now Search 4 the "samsung bypass google verify.apk or Bypass any Samsung Google Account Lock.apk" its both the same!!!
now copy the apk to the USB/SD/... and when the Phone shows the Google Activation Login, plug in your USB-OTG Cable!!
Now its open the File-Explorer and you can install the apk!!!
Now you can activate the oem-unlock,...... and so you can reboot Odin and flash Root or Recovery and now its no Problem to remove the Google Activation Login via Recovery!!
PS i have tested it on newer Firmwares and its NOT Working!!!
MFG
