Hello, everyone!
I recently have run into some trouble with my (ATT) Galaxy S4 (SGH-I337). I flashed a custom rom and (idiotically) didn't make a backup. Long story short, things didn't quite work out with the new rom. I didn't like it, and I wanted to go back to the old stock firmware. So I decided I would try to do it. I tried flashing with odin, using recovery, etc. Nothing worked so far. I've been researching for about 12 hours now. I think I know what I need. I need a TWRP backup, so that I can move it to the sd, and trick twrp into thinking I backed up my system so I can restore it. Below, I will link a post to what I want. The reason I can't use the below is because it's for a different carrier. If someone would be kind enough to link me something, that would be great. Again, my phone is a ATT Galaxy S4 (SGH-I337). Please help me out!

Before I help you I want to be absolutely sure.
Are you sure you have an i9505? Because you keep saying ATT. That's a completely different phone. That's the SGH-I337. You can't flash stuff for the i9505 on the SGH-I337.
So what model do you have? Do you have an i9505 or the SGH-I337. My guess would be that you have the SGH-I337.
ps I have no idea what the thread is what you posted. Don't use that thread because its outdated.

Since I did in fact flash the wrong ROM, could I just reflash a new ROM that's compatible with my phone?

Yes. You can flash a stock rom for your device.

Alright, but for some reason I get an error in Odin. It says "SECURE CHECK FAIL". Do you have any idea what might cause this?

Its probably because you are flashing an old firmware on your new bootloader. What version where you previously on? 4.4.2? Then you can't flash a 4.2.2 rom.
ps stop opening new threads for this. You already got this thread.

after i try flashing stock 4.3 firmware phone says SW Check fails Binary:1
How can i fix this and install my region firmware please help.
Or i cannot downgrade to 4.3 because of bootloader update please let me know. thanks
Your last sentence has the answer....
you can try restoring the backup (if you did) of boot; i think.

For now I think there is no way to downgrade as because of bootloader

You tried root made for N9007 ??? Maybe a curropt dowload .try flashing again.
Btw to get back your device to work flash your official firmware through odin.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
yep, it was a direct download from chainfire... IDK, hope the reflash will work... I am going to hang myself if it wont.
There are different files for 4.3 and 4.4
but not for 9007 bcs there is just Jelly Bean, no KitKat yet...
ok update, I am stuck with writing error... tried to flash official JB but still got the same error... anyone could help?
Used Odin 1.85? And right instructions.
Wipe cache and data reset

I'm guessing you have the Australian Optus device. If so I have the same one and successfully rooted mine (SM-N9007) last night without a problem! (Been running root apps ie. Titanium Backup and xposed framework)
I jumped on 'AndroidXDA.com' and downloaded CF-Auto-Root File from their guide. If your phone is bricked then download official firmware for SM-N9007 from sammobile and install using ODIN 3.09. Hopefully you'll be able to get it working.
Thanks, I managed to reinstall the stock rom and root it - the problem was with the usb connection, my pc has got problems with usb ports from time to time. So I switched to another pc and got it working
So, I was trying to flash my custom rom to my SCH-i545 (Verizon S4) and now it's stuck in download mode!
It's an NC5 and android 4.4.2 (I think) . Pretty much every forum i visited said to use TWRP and Safestrap, but after flashing the custom recovery and rebooting, it would not leave download mode. Tried flashing a custom recovery with odin, and it fails.
Phone output:

First off, the Odin method isn't working because CF-Auto-Root is designed for the I337M not the I337. We need more information about your device... head to Settings then About Device. Post the Baseband, the Build Number, Kernel Version,etc. or take a screenshot of it and post it here. Towelroot should work *if* you are on a current version of Android, and if your on MK2 you can use Saferoot.
I have a SM-N910C and downloaded the 4.4.4 firmware from sammobile.com, I actually tried 2 different firmwares from my country and both fail when I try to flash them via Odin.
Any help is appreciated.:crying:

I did that and the error went away (deleted sboot.bin and modem.bin and repacked with 7zip as Tar) however i'm stuck on a boot loop now...
I tried doing factory reset but that doesn't fix the boot loop, any ideas?
Thanks

I deleted sboot.bin and modem.bin and after flashing I'm on a boot loop and ODIN fails to install 5.1.1 with the same error.
Any help is much appreciated!!!
Phone says now in boot loop:
Code:
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
Fixed by downloading stock 5.1.1, deleting modem.bin and sboot.bin from the tar, packing again and flashing via ODIN.

All coj5 and above bootloaders are locked you can not downgrade from them to 4.4.4 or even to an earlier version of 5.1.1.

Can z3x box pro help us for downgrade ????
Any tutorial how to remove everything on note 4 include bootloader and reinstall bootloader through z3x box ???
There is a way is to buy international model of mobile and you cant down or up if u have locked boot-loader..
Like example the "G" version from SEA can downgrade and upgrade as long you have the firmwares..
Till now there is still no stable way to bypass the locked BL, unless you change the chipset from locked note 4 to other note 4..

As of now , noone has successfully downgraded bootloader from coj5 or above. No way of doing this. Samsung is trying to copy apple by locking bootloaders on international variants.:good:

It's only the Exynos and US model variants that have this issue. If you buy the F model you can downgrade to 5.0.1 or 4.4.4
