Odin Failure to flash CWM Galaxy S4 ATT - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I'm having a little trouble getting custom roms installed on my Galaxy S4. Here is a little information about the phone
Carrier: ATT
Model: Galaxy SGH - 1337
Android version 4.2.2
After spending a few hours here on XDA both searching the site and posting on the help thread, I've come to no solution.
So yesterday due to a level of frustration with the amount of bloat that comes pre-installed on the Samsung devices, I decided I would try to set up a custom rom. I've used the Towelroot site to root the device (enable superuser access and disable Knox,) But wasn't able to install CWM. I've downloaded and installed the CWM Rom Manager and inside that app is an option to install CWM manually. Of course it isn't that easy, because although it says it's installed the recovery, when I boot into recover mode, it is still the stock android recovery mode.
So I turned to Odin. Specifically Odin 3.09. This is where the problems start. I start my phone and enable download mode. The phone is recognized by Odin and I choose the CWM file I have (recover-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.4-jflteatt.tar.) I press start and the process begins, but before long I see FAIL! in red at the top
The message box reads as follows:
<ID:0/003> Added!!

<ID:0/003>
<ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
<ID:0/003> Removed!!
I've tried using three different usb cables (including the stock s4 cable included in the packaging) and several different ports of course to no avail.
What exactly does FAIL! (Auth) mean? That seems to be the point where it goes south. I've tried other Odin versions and gotten more or less the same result.
Could I be flashing a bad file? Is the CWM.tar not the correct file to flash?
Anyways if anyone has a fix to this particular solution then let me know. Otherwise I'll take really any other viable solution to enabling custom roms on the Galaxy S4 for ATT. I'd like this to be a thread that people see when they google search it, so I won't give up and I'll be sure to post with the best process that I can find!

I think u maybe flashing a bad file or maybe ur choosing wrong option in Odin to flash the recovery, what option did u choose? and also check in the att s4 section as this is not the right forum for ur phone model

Odin PDA loader and then start. Very simple it seems. I didn't see any particular ATT s4 section but maybe a mod could move me over?

Alright stop what you are doing. Want to kill your phone? Keep going like this.
The stuff you try to flash is NOT for you phone. You don't have an i9505 or an i9500. You have an at&t phone. That's a completely different section on xda.
You need to be in this section.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-att/general
You probably need to look for unlocking your bootloader. But I would suggest reading and understanding everything before you do anything like this again. If you want to kill your phone this is the way to do it.

[Q] Issues installing ANY custom recovery on

NOTE: I'M STILL ON 4.2.2
So I've already rooted my device using motochopper and had no issues, but now I'm trying to install a custom recovery to no luck. I prefer TWRP but every time I try to install via Odin it fails with this message:
<ID:0/004> File analysis..
<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/004> Initialzation..
<ID:0/004> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/004> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/004> recovery.img
<ID:0/004> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/004>
<ID:0/004> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
I've installed the latest drivers and ran ODIN as admin. I tried an older version of TWRP and even ODIN but end with the same result.
When I try via GooManager, it finds the correct version and takes me to the download page, but after the countdown it never downloads and eventually times out.
So then I decided to go CWM via RomManager. It found the correct CWM recovery image and said the install was successful, but when I try to boot into recovery I get the standard Android recover screen with "reboot system" etc.. with the little Android robot with a red triangle coming out of him.
Every method I've tried is failing and I can't figure out why

I'm assuming you are AT&T SGH-i337?
If so, are you using the LOKI'd versions?
If you don't know what that means, I suggest you do a search and some reading.
If you know what it means and have used the correct version, may be someone else can help.
Sounds like nothing is able to write to the recovery partition. You might consider flashing the stock firmware with odin and starting over.

so is there something wrong I may have done to cause this? I wish GooManager would just download and install as I've had luck using it in the past but it won't for some reason.

I'm not sure how much damage you have already done to your recovery partition so you made need to ODIN AMDL stock onto your phone before anything will work. However, here is the TWRP page for this device that also gives instructions on how to install via ADB or Terminal Emulator. Make sure you read EVERYTHING!
http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/174
Once you get TWRP working, you can flash a compatible version of CWM if you want to.
For future reference NEVER do anything to your phone that you don't read about here on XDA or at least see that people on XDA have tried it and verified it to work. Most sites (I'm not positive about the one you linked) just copy the information from XDA and claim it is there own. Usually, screwing it up some how. So never trust anything outside of XDA or that isn't directly linked to XDA. An example of something to trust is with the TWRP site. You can trust it as long as you make sure you have the correct information and version for your phone. That is your responsibility.
Also, make sure you search and read before asking questions or advice. Most information is already posted and you need to read about everything you are trying to do to your phone. If you follow these guidelines, you should do OK. If you try to cut corners or not search and read, you will end up in a mess. Good luck.

[HELP] Trying to root,can't turn on wifi...

So basically,got phone last night,tried regular rooting,didn't work,read up some more,tried the whole "Root AT&T Galaxy S4 SGH-I337 on I337UCUFNJ4 Firmware" even though my firmware is I337UCUFNJ5 and not 4,anyway,thread told me to flash I337_NC1_Stock_Kernel using the Odin firmware flashing tool.
I did....used towelroot app 3.0,didn't work,needed internet access (yes I got it straight from their site) fond a 2.0 version,used it,says "you should have root,no reboot required" so since I didn't have wifi on the phone,I went right back into odin and tried to use I337_NJ4_Stock_Kernel and flash it using the Odin tool to get back to the stock NJ4 kernel. Didn't work,failed,now I'm STUCK on nc1 kernel with no wifi access... help? please? this is my first rooting and I am legit clueless to most of this.. also how do I even find my boot loader etc?

Try with different version of odin (the latest is 3.10 I think), use different usb port, use different usb cable.
Did you load your file in the AP (auto partition) slot?

Not knowing WHAT you are flashing, makes it a little harder to determine what is going wrong.
Go HERE and flash this in Download Mode. This is the latest Stock 935A ROM, This will wipe Everything on the device, and it'll be like it came brand new

When you try to get the device into Recovery, it will appear like it isn't doing it or looks like an "No Command" error and it can take a couple of min to actually get into Recovery.
I would boot into Recovery again, let it sit for a few min. My bet is that it will eventually get into Recovery. Once it does, do a Factory reset, and then reboot into Download Mode, open Odin connect the device to your PC and install all 4 of the items from the Stock ROM thread, don't mess with any of the settings in Odin, just populate the slots with the BL, AP, CP and CSC

OK you got bootloader v2. Try to flash some older version of MM in download mode using odin
Like from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=67601581
From Edge of Galaxy Seven
You need to start by using the latest Odin, 3.12.3 for installing the original ROM. If you try to unlock, you need to go get the PrinceComsy version. PrinceComsy won't work for in-bricking a device, and if you have any of the stock versions of the ROM, you need the 3.12.3 version.

Any help?
It's possibly because the bootloader you are trying to flash is not compatible with your S4 model.
If you can't flash the bootloader separately, flashing a stock ROM package may work. Also, try a different Odin version and also another Windows.
Yeah I tried to flash the stock rom but the same thing happened. I have tried 3 different odin versions and 2 windows.
Could this be because I've changed my usb port? Odin seems to always disconnect my phone after failing and then reconnects again.
Google and download PIT file GT-I9505
Flash bootloader with pit file selected
@4shared: Nice advertising. PIT files are a weapon of last resort, thus we want to make sure there is no alternative before recommending it.
@varvainenkalas: Return to download mode and read the model number in the upper left corner. We need to make sure you don't have a Frankenphone before continuing.

It says Product name: GT-I9505
Good. The USB port on the device could cause this if it's damaged or defective. You want to check its connections in the device and also clean the port with a bit of rubbing alcohol to be safe.
Yes I got it solved. I don't know how but I think that the problem was that both usb cables I tried were damaged though they worked before. I tried third usb cable and the same error came up then I tried again and it flashed the stock succesfully. How can I mark this solved?
Go to your first post and change the title. If you can't do that, add a line to the post noting that the problem was resolved.

Unable to flash anything on Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9515

Evening fellas!
I hope i can get some help over because i am freaking out!
Let me start with what i wanted to achieve. I wanted to go and use Stuff on my phone which wasnt usable due to the SafetyNet API, because i got a custom firmware and root Access. I tried to flash Magisk but it doesnt worked, neither did my SuperSU proberly.
My idea was to unroot and then simply flash the stock firmware via Odin on my phone. 1st couple of tries it didnt work. However, it also didnt affect my phone at all. So i then went into my recovery (TWRP) and did factory reset. Just to clean things up. I tried again to flash and yeah, he actually did it! Just with the minor exception that the flasing failed like 3% before its completion and now i got basiclly a white brick. I ve tried numerous times to flash that firmware again, get some other firmware running - I also tried to flash the Stock Rom completly (which also was able to start the flashing just before it failed in the middle).
I dont find any help on the internet, or at least not help that helps me in my specific situation. I honestly dont know what to do else... I do appreciate any help!
Please help me xda-users, you re my last hope!

Yes, i just did. I ve used several USB Ports of my Computer (Haven't tried another computer yet, but that will come too). I also used two different cables. One Original and one third-party cable from amazon, which worked just fine for normal file copying and moving, on the S4 before its brick and the Samsung Grand Prime as well (as i use that in the mean time).
As from yesterday at some random points i was still able to get to flash something for just a second or so, the only messages i get from odin today are these:
<ID:0/003> Odin engine v(ID:3.1203)..
<ID:0/003> File analysis..
<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/003> Initialzation..
<ID:0/003> FAIL! (DeviceInfo)
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
I dont find any helpful information on that error message either, which is the worst part of it all.
Is Odin assigning a COM port to the phone?

Yes, everything is detected. Odin is detecting the Samsung Grand Prime just as well as the Galaxy S4. I've also tried different version of Odin. v3.12.3 and v3.13.1. They both give me the same output.
During the initalization phase, Odin is trying to communicate with the phone and is not able to do so.
What about Odin 3.07 with Win7?

I ve been using Windows 7 all the time, but now i also tried it with Odin v3.07 and look there: It actually worked! I was able to flash the Stock Firmware, i downloaded days ago, on the phone.
But i still have some problems. As i had the stock firmware running everything seemed to work just fine. At first some google processes repeatedly stopped all the time, but i got that fixed after a factory reset. But i wasnt able to get any google Service running even though i was logged in successfully. It seemed like it was working, but i got fooled. So i tried to flash the whole stock rom and thats where the fun begins all over again.
With using Odin v3.07 i set the files for the Bootlader(BL), PDA(AP),Phone(CP) and CSC but it wont work. Here's the Odin log:
<ID:0/007> Odin v.3 engine (ID:7)..
<ID:0/007> File analysis..
<ID:0/007> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/007> Initialzation..
<ID:0/007> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/007> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
<ID:0/007> Complete(Write) operation failed.

Okay, i don't know whats wrong now - but now i cant even flash back the stock firmware that worked before with odin v3.07. Odin now says:
<ID:0/007> Odin v.3 engine (ID:7)..
<ID:0/007> File analysis..
<ID:0/007> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/007> Initialzation..
<ID:0/007> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/007> There is no PIT partition.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
EDIT: Its not even being detected anymore.
There is no need to split the tar.md5 into 4 parts. In Odin 3.07, you can flash it as a single file in PDA.
You're flashing the latest stock ROM? Is it possible the USB port on the phone is damaged?
