I've softbricked my phone just following this guide over here: http://nasirtech.blogspot.com/2014/05/n9005vjuend1-android-442-kitkat.html
After following that, just after trying to root the phone bricked and would restart anymore. So far i have followed different guides like:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2627291
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2628435&page=8
But it seems to happen the same thing over and over. The flash just fails every time even if i flash only the pit, only the AP and so on. I've used odin 3.06 and 3.07 and the stock firmware that used to come with the phone (N9005VJUEND1), the phone is unlocked and is the one that has written 4G at the back.
The info behind the battery is:
Model: SM-N9005
FCC ID: A3LSMN9005
SSN: -N9005GSMH
And says that is made in korea. Also is a 32GB version.
What is important to mention is that i'm doing all of this in VMWare at a macbook. Don't know if this actually hurts the process but it shouldn't.
Does anybody has been through something similar?, please all help is needed
Good you mentioned u r using vm in mac, otherwise sort out your problem will be longer, bro use windows pc or partition in your mac threw bootcamp will do the job.

Or parallels. The problem is the usb drivers in vmware. Parallels works perfectly.

I will try with parallels.. if that doesn't work i will try with a windows pc.
Confirmed,
VMWare have issues with samsung driver, if you have a mac you can flash your international n9005 with parallels. DON'T USE VMWARE.
Ok, flashed successfully, but now the phone has no sound, the camera doesn't works and the dial panel doesn't work either. I'm trying to do a flash and then open it in recovery mode so i can do a full wipe. But even after doing the full wipe doesn't have any sound or camera. Any pointers with this?, i'm flashing it with aN9005VJUEND1_N9005UUBENC1_N9005VJUENC1 from Chile.
any help with this could be amazing. I've installed now CWM 6.0.4.7. With it i've installed bobcat 9.0 and same thing. Only a little faster. But still laggy, no sound, no camera and no dialer. Now i'm installing HAWKISH elite serie version N9005ZHUENE6. I will tell you later how i'm going with it.
---- edit ----
Nope, still the same, no sound. It's kind of desperating to still don't have nothing working. Please give me some pointers. Almost tryed everything.
New info, the 4g works, wifi works, is just the camera and the sound. Also it reboot's sometimes. Very anoying.
Finally i delivered it to the samsung service. It seems that i damaged the bootloader for what they are telling me and that's the reason why i had trouble with the keyboard, sound and dial.
So no more playing with the phone for now . Or use a windows to make the flashes. Any comments on this?
So, is working now??

I'm running a totally stock Sprint Galaxy S4. I recently updated my firmware and I'm now unable to connect to Odin or use MTP for file transfer. My phone will mount as a camera. I have used various cables to rule that out. I also went to the Samsung website to get the latest usb drivers. I went so far as to wipe my phone too. Does anyone know how to fix this? I would like to root my phone. I have a stock recovery so I'm limited on what I can flash. I also downloaded official firmware but had signature issues. Please help Lord Vader. I must destroy Jedi Scum.

You need to flash the newest kernel for your device, this has been fixed.

Hi guys, first of all let me share al my specs in order to place my question properly:
PHONE MODEL: Galaxy S4 SGH-I337M (the original stock kernel was: Build Date: 30.05.2013 -> Region: TCE (Mexico) PDA: I337MUMUAMDL Changelist: 518267 Android: 4.2.2)
Actual Rom: CyanogenMod -version: 10.2 10.2-20130923-nightly -jftlecan
Compilation number: cm_jfltecan-userdebug 4.3 JLS36G eng.jenkins.20130923.022829 test-keys
Recovery Mode: CWM via Rom Manager Pro app
So saying that I will say this: I came from stock to CM wiping Factory Reset and data/cache only and I used Odin for rootint the device....no problems at all, runs like a charm...
MY ISSUE #1: A couple of auto-updates ago (via Rom Manager), I start to notice that the radio bars (telephony signal, mobile internet signal bars) were from 1 to 2 bars in places I always get full bars (I live on a 7th floor with excelent signal at Mexico City). I searched on the forums (XDA developers and here) and it seems that ROOTED DEVICES SHOW THE REAL SIGNAL PROVIDED BY THE CAREER---->can someone confirm this? Is my phone showing the real signal strenght?, eventhough, keep reading to see that low signal bars are only the beginning...
So as i said, I didnt worry pretty much, because if the bars are little low, but i have a good quality service, who cares? but the REAL PROBLEM appears when another update came and when Im trying to use my mobile internet (4g or 3G, doesnt matter) the signal cuts exactly at the moment of loading a page or any info....it as happened with almost all apps (specially Facebook, Waze and Google Maps)
It happens as follows:
1.- Open any app, like Dolphin browser or Firefox
2.- Page starts to load info (LTE showing download and upload state)
3.- LTE-3G or whatever, shuts down (I see only the telephony signal bars and there is no internet signal)
4.- Wait few seconds, LTE-3G whatever is back...have to try again and agin until LTE remains steady (sometimes it wont until I reboot)
ISUE #2- DURING CALLS:
- Sometimes people cant hear me, but I can hear them...restart the phone and the issue fixes it self...buts is very annoying to restart my phone every single time somebody calls me and they cant hear me
I dont know what to do guys? Shall I wait until final CM10.2 comes to light? Somebody has this bug also? Is this bug part of CM? or there is another app making this rare behaivour...(do you recommend me another ROM for this model of GS4??)
EDIT: I tried to flash the original modem.bin (via ODIN) which is used by my carreer (TELCEL, son of Slim AKA "The richest man on Babylon :silly: is the company´s name). So until now, I can tell that in my first attempts of opening pages or facebook, the randomly LTE turning off-on continues...I will keep testing with this "orginal" flashed modem....

It's defiinitely a modem issue. You can flash new modems and try. (backup efs before doing so, actually if you dont already have one - do it before now and save yourself some grief)
If that's not fixing the issues...
I'd backup what you need and start fresh. It would be the easiest way to resolve all your issues. Maybe even try a different kernel set for your region and phone.
Kies has a useful firmware recovery option that sets you back to stock.
The Kies will use your model number and serial to get you your stock firmware and reset you back. Id wipe all data under settings then do it. After its done, do another factory reset in recovery.

Thanks for that advice, i guess Im going to do all that if a new kernel doesnt fix the issue (I havent found any kernel for my region which supports Android 4.3, only 4.2.2, and someone told me is not correct to install such a kernel). Good day to you!

So after done all the "back to stock" steps, I still get this questions:
1.- Would I still be ROOT but with stock firmware (Touchwiz) and cool features originally made for Samsung GS4? (such as air gestures, etc etc)
2.- If im "unrooted" by the steps described in your link, can I upgrade to 4.3???
Thanks you are so kind!
Check out GoldenEye ROM or MDOB ROM in the development forum. They are extremely stable, super fast, tw and excellent battery life. CM is awesome, but is seriously way to flawed for our S4's right now to use for day to day life.

Thanks. I successfully installed stock Rom (Touch Wiz) and the signal has been impecable (full vars and excellent internet speed). I have to say that stock Rom is faster than CM in its current state I'm having a better experience right now ( and didn't had the time to explore all the Samsung apps in their depth) thanks again for your kind help!!!

Well I just went back to original stock firm ware via Kies, and now the radio signal issues are gone!! CM 10.2 didn't work well for me as the stock rom is now working in my phone. Something tells me that some times it's better to just rooting (for enjoying cool apps as Greenify) and not installing custom Roms (because all this kernel carnival is just to much, and appart of all we have to install radio firmware? Just no!)

I have a brand new Galaxy S4 for AT&T and nothing will work to root this phone. Tried motochopper. When I run adb file as administrator the black box pops up for about 2 seconds and then its gone. Doesn't install SuperUser.
Also tried Odin 3.09 and the ID box says ):[COM4] and is always blue instead of yellow. Tried reinstalling the drivers restarting etc and its the same. When I hit "Start" it always fails.
Also tried the Kingo ROOT, it gets the phone into download mode and at the Recovery step, it fails.
Even Tried Terminal Emulator and once again, it would fail saying it couldn't find files even though they were on the SD card and it was formated correctly
I'm really stuck here and ready to give up. Please help!

Since you just purchase the s4 you must be on build NB1 which there is no single method to root developed. To root your phone you need to downgrade to MK2.

And which recovery are you using?
You can try to flash the standard Galaxy S4 rom (non-branded) via Odin, and then try to root that rom
Did you try to flash a pre-rooted custom rom? This might also help, and you might get a better rom (performance/battery-life)

Its not about root the latest phones comes with a version that the bootloader its locked. This phones are limited to Touch wiz roms due to the new decision of AT&T to lock the bootloader. There is nothing we can do until some body find a way to do it.

Now why would AT&T make it so hard / impossible to modify your device? They don't gain any advantage of it do they?
Sent from my unknown using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
The main advantage is you can't use custom rooms to get around some of the blocked features. That way they can charge for those features.
It also allows them to go after the corporate contracts that want a more locked down device. The Government has been looking for a successor to the BlackBerry.

my suggestions?
flash a stock ROM, and do a clean up (factory reset & clear cache) from stock recovery. This is the simple way.
my guess (if I'm wrong, correct me), you come back from CM/AOSP to TW, and it start to be like this.
Well im not sure if I had rooted it properly but I did all that I downloaded the stock hk rom to try see if thag will get it from booting in recover I know thats the easy fix. My big issue are all the other problems I had before I even tried to root the phone

Is your device is N9005 HK/Taiwan version ?
if not, you can't just use the HK/Taiwan firmware onto your N9005.

if yours is the international model of 32GB N9005, it is strongly suggested not to flash HK/Taiwan firmware.
This 2 firmware is basically only for HK/TW N9005, which is earlier was came in 16GB. Means the partition is different from the 32GB.
after that, they come up with 32GB, but... I might be wrong (correct me if I do), I read somewhere the partitioning also different.
So, Why don't u flash other international firmware ?
Have you tried other than HK/Taiwan firmware ?
I believe so as well. Regardless either 16 or 32gb HK fw doesn't play well with other regions n9005

If you haven't flash stock rom then just flash it first to see if the issue persists. Factory reset and wipe cache from stock recovery after done odin flashing.
If issues persist, root you phone again, install custom recovery sych as TWRP, use DrKetan's imei backup tool here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2698639,
make a nandroid backup if your current rom, wipe system/data/cache(don't wipe internal or external storage if you save your nandroid backup and imei backup in any of them else you will lost it. You will never know when they would be handy if you lost your imei in any way). Then flash again stock with odin.
My friend's note3 has terrible lag after upgrade to KitKat. It took a few minutes after reboot just to get unlocked so I helped him to reflash using odin but after 3 different firmwares flashed still not get resolved. I did the same. No more issue after that.

Every flash I try with Odin is not working. I have tried 4 different stock .tar files all of which ****ing fail through Odin. I'm getting extremely pissed off right now as I need my phone to not be ****ed up.
What Happened:
Installed a rom on my Samsung Galaxy S4 AT&T SHG-I337 that had issues with the WiFi. Actually, it was THIS rom. When I flashed it using SafeStrap I figured if there were problems then I would just revert back to stock rooted rom and try to find a different rom. Nope. Hyperdrive is ****ing gay and removed SafeStrap so when I went to boot into it, SafeStrap wasn't there anymore. So I attempted to flash using Odin and it failed. So since I removed my battery while in download mode my phone will no longer boot normally or into recovery.
I have tried to flash all sorts of stock firmwares and all just FAIL through Odin.
I Have Tried:
NB1
MDB
MDL
And I think there were 2 more but hell if I can remember what they were.
So how the hell do I unbrick this piece of crap?
You removed the battery while downloading in download mode? That's a problem. But use the nb1 tar and try different usb ports. Odin can be finicky. Good luck

That would not make any sense seeing that I was able to flash fine with Odin 2 days ago using the same port and cord.

It probably got hosed when you too the battery out while it was downloading. My last suggestion is jtag. See mobiletechvideos.com

When I'm in Download Mode I just noticed something that says "WRITE PROTECTION: ENABLED" so do you have any idea what that is?
Yea, so no one has a fix for this?
Fantastic...

Gonna quote myself and say that its fixed now.
All I did was take out batter overnight and changed the USB port to the one directly from my motherboard. I then just flashed the stock NB1.tar.md5 file and everything went smoothly from there. Though that has never worked for me in the past (different USB Ports) but for some reason it did today.
Would me pulling my batter out overnight have had something to do with it as well?
