hello guys
i have i9505 here when it boots it shows in top left corner this massage in red and yello and it just stuck at that massage with galaxy s4 logo
(red) boot screen kernel is not seandroid enforcing
(yello ) set warranty bit kernel
TBH with you guys i Don't know what happened with this phone beside someone tried to flash it with a rom and it went wrong
and what do you think about this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2594483 did anyone try it and what happened to phone ??
how do i know phone region ?? CSC_config_LSB
a friend of me said i need Z3x samsung tool box to fix it is that a box or a program that i can download ??
I'm sorry to bother you
That method should work
Edit: and no you don't need any toolbox
thank you another question how do i know My Phone CSC or region or any firmware will be ok ??
I honestly don't know, for my model I just download the firmware for it and flash it but it may be different for the i9505.. I would think you download the firmware for your country/carrier if available from sammobile.com and flash it through Odin.. There may be a guide for this try searching the forums
on which model you tried this ?? and how did it go , did work ??
I didn't have the same problem but I know this solution works, it fixes many problems.. I have M919 USA model
ok i will try it nothing to lose and About Z3x do you really think I don't need it , because my friend said its only solution for this problem !
Yeah I'm pretty sure you don't, as long as it turns on you shouldn't need it for the most part
i tried that on 1st attempt it failed however in 2nd attempt odin doesn't detect phone ??
i did try it 3 times i only got a firmware upgrade enncoutered an issue please select recovery mode in kies and try again !! AND kies is not connecting the Phone.
Uninstall kies, reboot and try again
did that nothing changed
Try changing usb ports and try every last available port, if that doesn't work try reinstalling drivers
did it all and nothing changed
will downgrading help ??

Nope.. Can you try a different computer?
Edit: what version of Odin are you using? Try a different version, or newest if you don't already have it
It's just a normal message when you use a custom kernel. A custom kernel is always included in a custom rom. So nothing to worry about.
You can do 2 things:
1. Flash a custom recovery (if you don't already have on), flash the custom rom you want.
2. Flash one of the latest stock roms. The rom from the thread you posted is outdated and can't be flashed to your phone if you have the latest bootloader.
They are right, I actually thought about suggesting that but for some reason I thought you didn't have custom recovery, if you do you can just flash a ROM without having to worry about connecting to Odin
sorry for late respond i will try to flash recovery and see if i can boot to into it

hi all. need help
i've been playing with different roms for couple of years now on different phones and did not have any problems.
till now that is ....
i have installed Omega 21.1, but from time to time phone would lose gsm data connection so i decided to flash something else.
installed [ROM]KOT49H【4.4.2】AOSP official Google Edition and it was good.
for some, God knows what reason, wanted to try Omega19 (4.3). installed fine but sound was broken. when ever phone used any kind of sound it would start flashing or would freeze or something. Flasing any other rom did not help. and for some reason it does not let me change modem with odin.
Last modem i have installed is XXUEMJ5.
tried to do restore using [GUIDE] Unroot/Unbrick, Flash official stock firmware on Galaxy S4 GT-I9500 & I9505 but Odin would fail with Auth error
tried with Odin 3.47, and 3.07
now i still can install rom but stops in logo loop. tried both Omega and google edition.
pls help

Hi,
Once you have installed a TW 4.4.2 ROM , it installs the latest knox bootloader.
At that point , you cannot downgrade your firmware.
You said you installed [ROM]KOT49H【4.4.2】AOSP official Google Edition and it was good.
Your best bet is to re-install that.
As for the modem , there is a technique which you have to try:
Look HERE
That should help.
BTW , I edited your title
thx. will try that and report back.
nope, still stuck @ logo loop
not sure what more combination to test
tried Omega 21.1 with
Bootloader -> BL_I9505XXUFNA5_373648_REV06_user_low_ship_MULTI_C ERT.tar.md5 and
Modems -> CP_I9505XXUFNA5_373648_REV06_user_low_ship_MULTI_C ERT.tar.md5
but now it does not get to the logo. shows samsung logo and than screen goes blank.

Hi,
You said you tried the [ROM]KOT49H【4.4.2】AOSP official Google Edition ,and it worked .
So I figured to try and re-install that one.
The other thing you must do between flashing different ROMS is a full wipe (Cache and data)
yes. that was first thing i tested. at best i get the logo loop.
and yes, i do full data wipe before and after reinstallation of the new rom.
cache wipe only whe requested but in this case done that to.
is there a way to see a boot log or something to see where and why booting stops?

The best thing you can do is flash the entire 4.4.2 stock rom via odin.And start from scratch(Recovery/Custom rom) Since you already flashed the newestbootloader (from OMEGA file) .This mean your knox is now triggered and your warranty is now void 0x01.

Hi,
Perhaps you should try to find the latest test stock 4.4.2 firmware ( I9505XXUFNA1) and flash it in odin.
Wipe data and cache before and after flashing.
And then wait for the official update.
At least you should have a phone you can use.
following http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265477
i've found that there is 4.3 stock image I9505XXUEMKF. downloaded it and tried to install but that did not work.
now this is a noob question but is there a speciffic bootloader, modem or something else i need to flash before flashing this image?
or should i search for 4.4.2 version?
thx
flashing stock 4.3 on current bootloader/modem combination gives me Fail from Odin and Sw. Rev. Check Fail error on the phone.

I believe malybru already answer that for you .Thread and Stop experimenting with your Phone because there's a chance that you might bricked your Device or end up with no IMEI.. and Your asking for help/Solution mate so follow their instruction . If not feel free to send your Phone to customer Service for repair.( and Be aware that your warranty is already voided unless your Country is part of EU so Rooting and Flashing don't void your warranty)

Click the link on EU mate . And start reading even my provider said that if the knox is already triggered, My phone still have warranty for 2 years as long its a hardware/system problem. But if i break the glass on my phone and such then i dont have any warranty for that..and must pay them for a repair.

ah, my bad. for some reason i was reading 4.4.2 as 4.2.2
i did follow all other instructions, and i thank you all for them, but still not sure where to go from here.
i know i should stick to 4.4.2 firmware but need to check somehow if bootloader/modem combination that i've install is actually installed.

If you already flash the Bootloader from Omega then you can no longer downgrade to 4.3 stock , that's why your Getting Fail (Auth) in Odin Flash the 4.4.2 stock Leak rom for now then if you consider flashing a Custom Rom then ,flash the philz recovery 6.09.2 or TWRP (Dont forget to Nandroid backup EFS and such and then DO A CLEAN WIPE by Wiping cache, dalvik cache data and system) and From recovery flash any Custom rom you like. (no need to root your phone, Your phone will be rooted after flashing any custom rom . So goodluck
Hi,
Currently there is not much on the phone, at least nothing to start up. I had CM, but had to go back so I tried the guide posted on this forum. With little success. So now im not sure where I stand as the phone is in a state without a ROM. When I try to start up normally i get "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
Anyone can help me with installing fresh stock Samsung ROM?
Thanks in advance!
Sincerely,
Tho_kva2
Which was your last stock rom bevor you installed cm?
And which stock rom did you try to flash after cm?
Did they had the same product key?
Was the flashing process successful or did odin say "fail"?
And how is your current knox status? 0x1?
Send from my Galaxy S4 using Tapatalk
Not sure, but my phone was up to date with the latest update from Samsung.
I first tried to use "Norway (telenor)" first as, and when that failed I tried "Norway 4.4.2" Both found in the second post of the Guide.
Product key?
Odin said Fail. I tried multiple times with different odin versions and with PIT file.
Is it the "Knox warranty void" is so 0x1
And the latest original firmware running on your phone was it a Norway (telenor) firmware?
With product key i meant the csc.
The old firmware and the one you want to flash now have to have the same csc, i guess.
You can also flash a custom recovery and try to wipe and then flash again.
Send from my Galaxy S4 using Tapatalk
I'm not sure what the original firmware was, but it was the stock firmware i got with the phone when i bought it + updates.
CSC is TEN (Norway)
I do not know how to do a custom recovery, im a total noob on this subject of flashing and modding phones. Got any kind of guide or directrions to point me in? Sorry for not knowing squat, but hope you or someone else here can help me!
Hi,
okay, before you flash a recovery, you can try to flash another firmware but it have to be android 4.4.2 norway TEN
Did you also follow this note here?
"Odin troubleshooting:*If Odin accidentally gives you "fail" try the following:
- Repeat procedure.
- Make sure that all actions of Kies are disabled from task manager.
- Change usb port.
- Try another usb cable (make sure it is the original).
- Try another Odin version.
- Uninstall and re-install driver.
- Use pit file.
- Try another computer."
When odin will continue failing then try this.
http://www.usp-forum.de/downloads.php?do=file&id=1531
This is a 4 part open Europe firmware. Try to flash it...First time without pit,when odin failed try with pit...
If nothing helped, then you can install a custom recovery.
You once installed a recovery, before you flashed CM, remember?
But I will look for a guide and the right files.
Send from my Galaxy S4 using Tapatalk
It worked with the European version! Cheers mate Oh, it was without the pit.
Atleast android is installed hehe. but keyboard keeps crashing so cant type anything, and I cant turn on wifi; I get "Security notice, your device's security has blocked an action that is not permitted. No further action is required" -Knox Notification Manager.?
Oh and I got no SIM card to try at the phone atm. will get it later
So waht should be the next step?
Did you rooted this firmware already?
Try to fullwipe again. I thought this message only pops up, when the devise is rooted and Knox still not deleted... mysterious
Send from my Galaxy S4 using Tapatalk
I did not root it. I will try to wipe
Edit:
****ed up. Tried flashing the same again, and it failed lol.. so now im back to where I was before the phone "worked" again.
So I think I should get a recovery. Any thought?
Lol that's crazy. Also tried 4 part with pit?
And when you flash a Norway firmware again? Maybe it will work now, i don't know what's going on there
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397108
This is CWM recovery for i9505, you have to flash the .tar file with odin in PDA or AP. It's your choice, whether you install the touch or non touch version.
Edit: anything new?

That shouldn't have failed, CSC mismatch is not a cause of flash failure. Can you provide more details?
Hm...
Hi guys,
I had an issue similar to this and have no recollection what I did to fix it. I don't even think that I fixed it, ever. Meaning - no stock ROM install for me for months and months now.
I just downloaded some AOSP/TW ROM and flashed. Are you able to get to the custom recovery? Please confirm - I've read somewhere that you can flash stock from custom recovery. I did try a few "PIT" files, with no help.
P.S. I remembered a bit now. I was finally able to flash it through Odin, but entered boot loop. So, no go!
My eyes are on this thread.
Good luck,
Sonny B.

Please can anyone help? "Kernel is not seandroid enforcing" N910C Apologies in advanc
Hi,
I realise that this is a common problem and that the usual response is "go read"
Here's the short version:
Bought the phone secondhand ROM installed is some varient of 5.1.1 afaik, tried to back up the ROM before trying otrher ROMS, CWM didn't work - read some threads - tried TWRP which seems to be installed, got into a boot loop, read some more threads - tried to install glamour S6 from TWRP, nothing happened now getting "Kernel is not seandroid enforcing"
Absolutely no idea where to start - I've had android phones before and always successfully rooted and installed ROMS before.
If anyone could help I would be very grateful as I don't want to make it even worse.
TIA....

Yes, possibly...
However, what I did was try to back up the supplied ROM first.
So that I would be less likely to bugger it up

Hi,
I don't think I can flash anything at the moment ?
All I'm getting is "Kernel is not seandroid enforcing" in a loop.
Not sure where or how to start
V+ & home & power does go to Team Win Recovery Project v2.8.7.0
Can I do anything useful from there ?
TIA...
well, by flashing i meant downloading a frimware from sammobile or... and using odin to install the stock rom , dont let that "kernel not seandroid enforcing" get on you nerve that one doesnt really matter , only way to solve your prob is to install a stock frimware...
about the slow download speed try searching the latest frimware name on google and a direct link from another download site might probably come up...

i bought the phone when i was in india and i flashed the ROM which was released in some other country. Now im in saudi. Its working for me perfectly.
I guess the only solution for your problem is to download a stock version and flash using Odin. Then you can start trying other ROMs and so.
It will work 100% for sure.

Download this. This is the latest Lollipop ROM for SM-N910C. Download and flash this using Odin.
Vol down + Home Button + Power Button, Then connect the phone to the Pc and flash with odin.
If its confusing for you then READ THIS tutorial. Read completely and follow the instructions . . . this will work because i used the same method.

Hi,
Thanks that's what I've been trying to do, downloaded 3 ROMs before you suggested that one. Finally worked out that unzipping them in windows was causing errors (reason unknown) switched to a different zip program and the ROMs are ok now. Still wouldn't install in Odin, switched to a different PC - same problem - bought a new quality USB lead and I've now installed the ROM suggested by you, I don't know whether the other ROMs would have installed as I didn't try with the new USB cable.
All the operations in Odin carried out successfully, I've now got a slightly different problem - when Odin finished, the phone booted:
"Samsung Galaxy Note 4" "powered by Android" then just SAMSUNG logo in the middle of the screen with some music - then back to the "Samsung Galaxy Note 4" "powered by Android"
I've had to take the battery out to stop the bootloop - I have looked for answers to this: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358554645
I'm a bit reluctant to randomly try fixes in case I make it worse ?
If anyone can help me out of the boot loop ?

Maybe the version that your phone was running was "coj5" Build of 5.1.1. this is the latest build of 5.1.1 and it basically locks down your phones bootloader you can't flash any old 5.1.1, 5.0.1 or 4.4.4 firmwares just go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N910C/PAK/ and download the top firmware which is coj5. flash it and it might take you out of the bootloop (do a factory reset first) it will lock your bootloader to run only 5.1.1 or newer builds but since you have already tried other roms i think its worth it atleast you will have a working phone. (don't worry about csc being PAK it does not have any additional bloat)
Just in case it's of any help to anyone in the future.....
The unzipping problem was down to unzipping inside windows - as soon as I used winrar, no more corrupt files.
The install from Odin problem was down to a knackered USB cable.
Many thanks to Captain Droid and everyone else.
I got out of the last bootloop by repeatedly wiping the caches, after about 3 wipes it booted and seems to be running ok...
I'm very pleased to have it working again
Is there's a safe/best way to try other ROMs or is it a case of best leave alone ?
Less bloatware would be nice - or is there a way to properly remove some of it ?
I have N910CXXU2COL2_N910COLB2COL1_THL installed atm
What's the best currently available custom ROM for the N910C ?
Do not be afraid to ask dumb questions; they are easier to handle than dumb mistakes
Is there any obvious reason why Rom Manager can't install a custom recovery with this Rom ?

Hi,
I've installed this and am grateful to have a working ROM. I thought that after installing this, I would be able to install other ROMs ?
I would like to back up EFS and the current install before trying to install another ROM, ROM Manager won't work, so I have tried to back up EFS from Philz Touch Recovery, that hasn't worked either. It couldn't write to SD1 but claimed to have written to the phone, but hadn't.
I've also tried to install Sixperience from Philz, without any success - another bootloop. I eventually managed to reinstall the THL ROM via Odin.
Is it possible to back up EFS from the THL ROM ?
Can I install sixperience from Odin ?
Is sixperience the best ROM to try ?
TIA.....

Hi,
I realise that this is a common problem and that the usual response is "go read"
Here's the short version:
Bought the phone secondhand ROM installed is some varient of 5.1.1 afaik, tried to back up the ROM before trying otrher ROMS, CWM didn't work - read some threads - tried TWRP which seems to be installed, got into a boot loop, read some more threads - tried to install glamour S6 from TWRP, nothing happened now getting "Kernel is not seandroid enforcing"
Absolutely no idea where to start - I've had android phones before and always successfully rooted and installed ROMS before.
If anyone could help I would be very grateful as I don't want to make it even worse.
TIA....

If you're still able to get into Download Mode, the device is soft-bricked. As to firmware, are you using Optimus, Vodafone, or a smaller carrier?

tmn , its the most used in portugal but the roms didnt work as I said
Nevertheless, you asked for a ROM. Your ROM is here. Assuming you can get into download mode, make sure you're using the original cable and the cable is directly connected to the PC (i.e. not using a hub). Post any error messages Odin generates.
Awnser #2
So the first rom the 9505XXUHOJ5_I9505TMNHOJ1_TMN , i've already tried , and the error that odin gave was, nand writ and the fail.
Ill try to install the 4.2.2 version to see if it works .
I've tried the I9505XXUBMF8_I9505TMNBMF1_TMN/ rom , 4.2.2 version from the site that u give to me, and nand writ and fail again... (((
Humor me.
Enter Download Mode and read off the model number given there. I want to confirm you don't have a Frankenphone before recommending you bring the phone to a Samsung service center to have it looked at.

Thx for your help m8
Take it in for service. If none of the stock ROMs will install you have a hardware issue.
When flashing a stock ROM, you should flash the same or newer firmware to the phone.
Are you using the original Samsung cable to flash the ROM? What errors are you getting in Odin?

whats is the diference between a rom or a firmware?
No, im using a regular cable... the pc detects it so there's no problem I guess...
Sorry about the confusion. Firmware and rom and pretty much the same thing.
Even though my s4 and s3 were detected with any old sub cable I had on hand, I could only flash the stock rom in Odin with an original Samsung cable. I would always get put errors without the Samsung cable.
@RubenPimenta: Sometimes yes, sometimes no. You should be using the original cable, rather than an aftermarket one.
oK ill try with the original cable and I'll post the result ...
but until now the error its always the same... nand writ fail
Same results...
help guys
STILL NEED HELP! Im using windows xp there is some problem with dat?
You should be on Windows 7 at least. Try another computer, but if that doesn't work, follow my advice in post #9.
