In according @_alexndr information about immposibility come back to XXUEND3 stock rom if you have XXUFN modem i have a question.
If i have a bootloop I have option to flash stock rom but i don't want beacuse i will loose opportunity to root again with towelroot.
So i can go to stock recovery and wipe data and cache and do factory reset, my question is: will this always help with every bootloops?
Is sometimes happen bootloop that help only flash stock rom?

not all the times AFAIK.
tried before when testing to downgrade from ND3 to NC2, bootloop, factory reset. go through boot... but all freeze and FC
hehehe.
if you have updated the bootloader, there's no way to go back to any older firmware than your bootloader.
But I didn't upgrade bootloader, only modem and now I don't have come back to old base...

Hey,
Today in between flashing a new ROM i went back to 4.2.2 cm10.1.2, just to check some things out before flashing a 4.3 ROM that i was intending to do in the first place.
However after having reverted to 4.2.2 when i went and install the 4.3 ROM i noticed i had no signal, since then i've tried flashing the radio and boot from 4.3 Factory Image via fastboot, tried installing a different 4.3 ROM, all with no success.
What can I do?
Btw i still get signal in 4.2.2
Thanks.

Check APN settings?
How do I do that?
Also the phone app just crashes totally when I try to do anything with it, even entering airplane mode triggers that.

You should do a clean wipe before you flash 4.3 from an older version, do a factory reset and wipe the system partition, then flash 4.3 rom.
via xda app
It might have to do with TWRP.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45323439
Try flashing TWRP 2.6.0.0 then proceed from there to flash your rom.
I guess i forgot to mention, i did a clean install, i factory reset before reverting.
And i have TWRP installed, I've tried several ROMs and in all of 4.3 ROMs i dont have signal and the Phone app FCs when i try to use it.
On that note, does TWRP Factory Reset wipes System Partition?
Factory reset does wipe system partition except /data/media.
Flash TWRP 2.6.0.0 (this version)
Factory reset
Flash Rom
Flash Gapps
Flash Modem
Flash Kernel
Flash Supersu
Wipe caches
Reboot
Btw, here is some insight on what to wipe in TWRP:
http://teamw.in/whattowipe
Oh I just saw your previous post, didn't understand it at first but now that I think about it I do actually have 2.6.1.0.
Ill try what you said and report back.
Thanks.

HELP
So I was flashing the MOAR ROM and think I messed up. I was on Optimal Lollipop and used NI2 flasher to get to safestrap...Then instead of just wiping or doing advanced wipe I also did "format data" or whatever the bottom right option is when you are in the wipe section of safestrap... Anyways I then flashed this ROM and then the OC4 kernel and now I am in a bootloop. Samsung screen for a few seconds then reboots
I need to get this fix within the next hour. I have my PC with odin if someone can give me some guidance without linking to a thread about restoring.. I am hoping I don't have to go all the way back to Nk2 or whatver it was and then root all over again...please let me know how I can get back up and running quick!

Try flashing a kitkat kernel and see if safestrap will come up.

ah good idea..didn't whatever I formatted like completely wipe everything..including safestrap and root access and EVERYTHING
If this doesn't work I know I can go the long way and start back at Kitkat and root again but that will take some time...could I just flash the OC4 or OD5 FULL firmware? One flash in odin just to get a usable phone for the night...and then tomorrow flash back to kit kat and start from scratch

I am more trying to figure out what went wrong...I just flashed the NK2 kernel via odin and I am now back in safestrap...
Previously the order I did everything was.
-Boot to safestrap
-Factory reset
-Format Data
-Flash ROM
-Flash MOAR ROM
Then the boot loops started
what should I do differently now that I am back in safestrap? I thought formatting data wiped EVERYTHING including safestrap and all that
**EDIT**
Tried a simple wipe data and getting
E:UnMount unable to find partition for path '/'
Updating partition details..
E: Unable to mount '/ss'
Full SELinux support is present
and then it repeats
ugh
do you know where there is a full Lollipop firmware I can flash..like all in one

Just do what you should have done. Don't format data. I don't know what you we're coming from as far as firmware but Factory reset, flash Moar, not knowing everything, it might not hurt to reboot to download mode after flashing Moar (through safestrap) and flash the firmware Moar is on. You have down that you flashed two roms. You can only flash one.

Sorry just in a rush so I was typing quick. Here is everything
I was on Optimal ROM (OC4)
I used NK2 Flasher to get to safestrap
Did a factory reset and accidentally formatted data
Flashed MOAR and then the OC4 kernel then started bootlooping
Taking your advice I quick flashed the NK2 kernel via Odin and got back into safestrap
Now after I factory reset it looks like it worked but there is also an error mentioning something about "E/ blah blah something not found"
I ignored it and flashed the MOAR ROM
Flashed OC4 Kernel
Rebooted
Now it's showing a tornado in the ocean and has been for 10 minutes...possibly a boot animation?
do you know what exactly happened? what does format data delete? I thought it would wipe the entire file structure of the phone removing safestrap and root which it somehow didn't?
last thing..if this doesn't boot. Do you have the link for the OC4 or OD5 FULL retail file to flash in odin? Isn;t there one file to get it back up and running for now

Just OC4

But if you are going to do that you might as well go to NCG so you can root
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952607139
your not in a bootloop
Deodexed ROMs like MOAR and Optimal take 15+ minutes on first boot.
Give it some time!

You absolutely can't downgrade from BOE1 or later.
If the issue was only that you were downgrading from BOD5 or earlier and simply flashed the wrong kernel, flashing the correct kernel will allow you to boot.
If the issue was that you had BOE1 or later and tried to flash kitkat, you need to try using Odin to flash a Lollipop recovery image.
Hello,
I did have CM13 installed on sm-a500fu and wanted to go back to stock rom. Downloaded right version (TWO-A500FUXXU1BOJ6-20151119145810 - 5.02. )) and flash process was without problem (ODIN) .Then i wanted twrp back and i cant do this no matter which version of twrp i use(twrp2.8.7.0-a5ultexx-19082015.tar,twrp-2.8.7.0-a5ultexx-20082015.tar). Recovery flash goes ok but cannot enter recovery.
Phone is always on Samsung logo
My suggestion is to flash again stock ROM, boot in stock recovery and wipe data/factory reset. Reboot to stock ROM normaly and after that you have to follow the steps to root and install twrp as mentioned in the other thread dedicated to it (I assumed you did that once when you flashed CM13).
In fact that's what I did on my phone...
Flash full stock and once done do a factory reset in stock recovery, do this 3 times, then flash twrp.
From the giver of stock roms
Hi guys,
I'm getting bootloop when I try to flash Stock Rom, I tried 2 roms for my country from samfirmware, tried robot rom from here (im n910c), tried miui v8 beta version also, cant flash 4file repair firmware since there are only available for 4.4 / 5.0, and I'm at 6.0.1
also repartition didnt help
all of these roms get me bootlooped, I can only flash CM rom and its fully functional
what to do?
After flashing your official stock rom via odin, go to Recovery and wipe cache and data/factory reset.
