[Help] Soft Bricked Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-i9507 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I've recently bricked my Samsung Galaxy S4. After countless hours, nights of searching I couldn't find a way to remove out of the softbrick state. So the only thing I'd do is post here. Okay, so here how I soft bricked my S4.
I've rooted my S4 using odin, and then when I rooted I installed a 4.4.4 rom. My original rom was TouchWiz 4.4.2. Now I'm tyring to get back to touchwiz, but each time I do so through I get an error message saying:
<ID:0/005> Added!!

I don't know what to do. I've tried using other usb ports, and I used this file (downloaded from sam-mobile) to flash
I9507XXUENB5_I9507OPSENB5_I9507XXUENB5_HOME
Edit:
Forgot to add that I can't access CWM or any other recovery menu or boot into the OS.. Any help is appreciated greatly.

Anyone? /cryyy

THE firmware you are trying is 4.3, you won't be able do dowgrade to 4.3
this is the correct version
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/43154/I9507XXUFOA1_I9507OPSFOA1_OPS.zip

Can you get in download mode? Is the device booting? If you can get in download mode you can flash the firmware in the link from post 3. with Odin

My phone is not working at all. I put hyperdrive rom on my phone but it had some issues so I needed to go back to stock. But when I tried to use kies to get me to stock, it gave me an error and now I have a "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue." It is stuck at download mode. Can someone help with this?

Im not trying to flash a rom. The rom I was on was the newest one. I'm trying to flash stock. The problem is that I tried to use Kies and it did not work. Now I am stuck on the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue." When I try to use odin to flash stock it gives me the same error code.
The newest stock rom is an update. Flash the stock NB1 first you can find it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2616221 then flash the newest update NC1

Stuck in bootloop from trying to downgrade from 5.0 to 4.2

As the title says, I tried to downgrade from lollipop 5.0 to 4.2 because I've had several issues and I also wanted to get root. I think part of my mistake was I wiped data/factory reset before I flashed AP. Any help would be much appreciated, as I have been at this for the past five hours. I added some info below that might help below. Thanks
- I cannot boot into recovery and get the message (Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again)
- CP is the only thing that will flash and CSC also fails
- model number is g900a AT&T
- I have used Odin 3.10.7 and 3.09, but no luck

Hey I have also experienced the same thing before, I was panicking that time, so I fixed it by flashing the old zip file, if that does not work try following the instructions your phone gave eg. Go to kies

Kies and kies3 are both not recognizing my device. I heard it could be because of usb debugging, but I can't boot into my phone to check.

Flashing stock firmware to 5.1.1 SM-G925W8 (Canadian/Telus) problems. HELP!

Hello I recently rooted my phone on 5.1.1 (Lollipop) and everything went well no issues till last night when I tried to install xposed installer and ended up soft bricking (I think) my phone, where it will turn on to the samsung s6 edge + logo and just sit there and won't go any further. I found out how to flash to the original firmware using Odin 3.10.7 and with the stock firmware file.
now I put my phone into download mode and connect it to Odin, put the firmware file into the AP section and hit start.
Once I hit start I get a fail message and this :
<ID:0/003> Odin engine v(ID:3.1100)..

I've tried different firmwares from different sites, different odin verions, USB ports please help
I tried uploading pictures and links to the firmware I used but apparently I need 10 posts before that so if you want to know anything else in order to help please ask.
am non rooted trying to flash a different firmware and I get the same. I remove the OEM lock but cannot flash anything
odin 3.10.7 works
You write SM-G925W8 that´s S6 Edge, not S6 Edge+!!! Try firmware for SM-G928W8!

kies is useless. your drivers are properly installed if Odin recognizes your device.
Download Odin 3.13.1 and try it again
Thanks I'll try when I am back home. I Cann only access download mode BTW. Else I stuck in a boot loop with this blue installing update screen.

as long as you can get to download mode, youre in good shape. From there, its merely a try-and-fail process of different Odin and firmware versions
Ty I was getting pretty despred after hours of fails and disappointment

it can get that way especially if youre downloading your firmwares from sammobile.com/firmwares directly. Takes FOREVAAAAAAR and then when it fails it gets SUPER irritating. Get the Frija firmware download tool here and the speed difference will blow you away. There is another firmware download tool out there too and i have it on my computer at home, but i cant remember what its called and the Frija tool is as good as that other tool anyways.
