Your mistake was not doing a search of the forum. There you'd find dozens, if not hundreds of existing threads that ask and answer the same question.
You didn't give us much information to go on but if you wrote the correct stock firmware without errors and wiped the system cache, then a factory data reset will correct your issue. If you have ongoing issues, then provide us with a lot more information so that we can effectively help you. For a start, a detailed, step by step description of exactly what you tried, your phone model, firmware versions, verbatim error messages and anything else germane.

ive looked for threads that could help me. i was not able to find any that can. my model number is SM-G900A and the firmware version G900AUCU1ANCE i think i updated it to the 3rd but i dont remember what the name of that frimware was. i rooted a few times with towelroot
i covered amost every option i could think of flashed the stock rom with odin still it would get to the samsung logo and stop and reboot i wiped the cache partition and tryed a reboot still the same thing then did a factory reset and still notthing. i have no idea what i could of done its possible i delete a system file but when flashing the stock rom should of fixed that issue if it was the deleted file. thank you for any help. and sorry for the lack of this is my first thread

Hi guys,
I can install any ROM in my S4 and the phone makes the first boot, enter in OP and i can configure anything with normal function.
But the problem appears when i make the first boot after this, stucks in Samsung Galaxy S4 LOGO and dont exit. I already made a wipe cache/dalvik but nothing happens.
What can i do?
when you are flashing a new rom are you wiping system? if not do so
if you are wiping system you may have a root thats not sticking after a cache wipe. if this is the case then you will need to flash su.zip found here-->http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=22964708692722463 before you flash a new rom. if you find that this is the case and that your root is not sticking i would suggest downloading twrp 2.5.0.2 from goo.im. after flashing this latest version it fixed this exact problem for me. NOTE: i am on MDC not MDL so if you are on MDL be careful what you do....this may not work for you.
also if when you are restoring your apps and whatnot make sure you are not restoring system data cause this can cause that issue as well.....
What rom did you flash?
Hello Everyone. I flashed the 4.3 Google Edition Rom and after about a day of use it crashed. I booted into TWRP and attempted to boot into the system to find that It would say the typical 'Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505 bla bla.' I then went back to TWRP and attempted to flash the backups of Stock TouchWiz via my 32gb SD Card (note my s4 is 16gb) and it would come up with failed and prompted me to wipe dalvic cache ect. Stressing out I went on to odin and flashed an Optus Carrier Stock Touchwiz Firmware. This did not work either making me still boot loop. I was however unrooted and did not have a custom recovery. And here we are now, I re-flashed root and TWRP attempting again to flash my backups and once again they fail on me.
Please. Any help would be highly appreciated. I currently have a phone with stock touchwiz (which doesnt boot), TWRP and Root flashed aswell. Thats It. Once again please. Ive checked plenty of other threads however they were all fixed some way or another.
Thanks for your Help Everyone..!:laugh:

just flash any original firmware via odin!
for example I9505XXUBMF8_I9505OXABMF8_I9505XXUBMF8
after that boot into stock recovery and wipe/delete data.
this should help.
also i wouldn't use any ge firmware until it's official released.
there are some bugs like you can't enter sim code or very heavy battery usage
good luck
if you've already tried standard ROM for i9505 and it did not helped - your bootloader was changed during the flash of Google ROM.
What do you need now: full ROM which would include bootloader, pit etc., and flash it with repartition.
P.S. ask any mod to move this thread to Q&A section, where it shall be...
DONE!
Guys, thanks for all your replies! I found a solution. I used an older version of odin and did a factory reset with the stock recovery. thx for all ur help again. I was just really stressed at the time so..! haha
Have the same problem with my Galaxy S4 Google Edition
I just bought a Google Ediion Galaxy S4 from the play store, and I followed the instructions in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341162). And my phone is screwed, it is stuck with the black screen and the Google Logo in the background. I can get into download and recovery mode, but only when I take the battery out first then reboot it in either mode. Can anyone help me please?

Go in recovery mode and clear the caches and optionaly do a data factory reset.
Please search the forums first for a solution to your problem ,there is plenty of bootloop threads.

I already did that, and it did not work, also I did search through the boot loop sections in the forum and I could not find good solutions, if any of you can direct me to a certain thread I would highly appreciate it.
•Please take time to read•
So first, I changed into cyanogenmod, it was successful though my sister didn't liked its "style" so I had to restore the stock firmware of jellybean 4.3 (XXUEMJ5_I9505OLBEMJ5_I9505XXUEMJ5_HOME.tar.md5) so i did a factory reset from the cyanogenmod settings and then flashed(it said my root access was lost after factory reset) using ODIN, everything went fine in the process in flashing, after my s4 reset 1st time a droid with a spinning thing on its tummy appears with the loading bar on its bottom and then resets once again I thought it was already good but my s4 was stuck on the SAMSUNG logo the blinking one. And then I downloaded a new stockrom the 4.2.2 (I9505XXUBMG5_I9505OLBBMG1_I9505DXUBMG5_HOME.tar and which was my original firmware the XXUBMG5), tried to flash using ODIN but it failed during the process, I'm about to download a new copy of the 4.2.2 version from the same site i downloaded from maybe it was corrupt?. Please help, me and my friend have done all things like using KIES that doesn't recognize my phone anymore, downloading stock recovery and such non works and so does my recovery mode after I access it, my s4 i9505 immediately restarts by itself after releasing my fingers and a lot of battery pulls. No luck please help me. I'm from the Philippines with an unlocked phone, International so I downloaded the XTE Region correct me if I'm wrong .
Please provide instructions if you have time .
After installation you have done this in the recovery mode wipe data factory reset and wipe cache partition
(can try with custom recovery - wipe and flash again)

Thank you very much ))))))) now it's working again, I forgot that entering recovery mode takes a while now my depression is lot ahahha
Let me start by saying I've never modded a phone before so I'm extremely new. I followed a few how-to's on these forums (by rovo89) as well as videos on how to enable xposed installer on my Galaxy s5 G900i. I rooted it successfully, installed TWRP without any problems all using Odin, but then flashed the incorrect arm file, and when I restarted my phone it was stuck on the Samsung bootloop. I didnt download the uninstaller and my phone wasn't able to connect to Odin at that point. I did have a backup file however. I restored to my latest backup however my phone was still unable to boot, even after wiping cache and data files. In a mad rush, i did a complete factory reset and wiped off all of the files including the system, and obviously now when I try and boot i get the warning "No OS installed! are you sure you want to reboot?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, is there any way to remedy this situation or have I screwed up too bad. Apologies for my stupidity.
Edit: I should note that when my phone is in bootloop, it is recognised by Odin (Added!), however while it is in TWRP, it is not recognised (Removed!).
Download official rom for your device and flash it via odin
The first issue I started to notice after rooting via Odin & TWRP was when trying to flash the iOS and WP ROMs from this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/3oss-project-samsung-galaxy-tab-4-7inch-t3081478 , it would fail. I was able to successfully flash the Google ROM from same post. I believe it was with one of the other ones that it even said successful yet when i went to reboot said no OS installed. So, I figured update my TWRP to newest version, maybe that was the problem. Well after updating, now when i go to wipe/factory reset it either says unable to mount or it doesnt even make it that far and reboots system. I tried flashing PIT file with Odin and issue persists. Everything still works smoothly but any help fixing this issue would be much appreciated as I do not want to dirty flash anything. Thanks in advance.
So now...after flashing stock firmware, it boots all the way to nook screen (right after samsung logo) and stops. I can boot into TWRP but it still says unable to mount data. Also, in TWRP when i click mount, the only one already checked is cache. I can manually select all others except data. When i go to install, the internal sd has absolutely nothing on it...really hope i didn's completely mess it up, sometimes my eagerness to learn gets the better of me. Thanks again for any help!
I have the same issue, im stuck
