I have a Rogers i337m that was running gpe lollipop with nc1 modem, crashed while listening to a podcast and infinite bootlooped so i downloaded the original rogers tar and flashed it in odin. Upon reboot the samsung logo flashes then the screen goes blank and the led starts flashing blue. I've tried flashing a modem from the original mdj in odin as it still can enter download mode fine but it fails out everytime and I'm at a loss for what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.
The only thing I can suggest is to flash the tar again using different cable and port. But I think you have a hardware issue.

Latest firmware info from SamMobile
GT-I9505 Galaxy S 4 LTE

CSC: I9505OXXBMG3
MODEM: I9505XXUBMGA
Previous set up:
Custom Recovery. Philz Touch
ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2352258
I has also attempted to update the base band when on this rom to MGA to the About device Baseband version stayed at XXUBMEA
Situation: I was getting lots of force closureswouldn'tentually it just wouldnt reboot, thenre-flashedvery failed. I reflashed the recovery and restored from wouldn'thowever it still wouldnt boot. (About 90% of the way through the bSamsungmation the audio samsung logo sound died. The Samsunghen went to the "samsung" static image with the blue LED light on and just stayed there... for about 30 mins before I force shutdown the phone.
I the attempted to flash stock ROM (listed in Goal above) downloaded from SamMobile. The same thing happened again. Boot gets stuck. I got into stock recovery and wre-flashedactory reset and reflashed. The ROM installed but I had no wifi. I then flashed the I9505XXUBMGA modem. Reboot and I had wifi. However About device still shows XXUBMEA baseband.
I wanted to see if I was able to get OTA updates from Samsung however Samsung update app is saying that the device is modified... so something isnt quite right yet. Im guessing it might be to do with the modem / baseband but to be honest I am a bit lost.
Screen shot of my current About Device Information. Also Device Status is showing as custom..
Thinking outloud here... would a Root->TriangleAway->reset counter etc->flash philz touch->full wipe for new ROM->boot to download->Odin flash stock fix it? Or could that do any further damage?
First install chainfires triangle away to reset your flash counter. For this you need root.
Then do a factory reset in recovery and flash stock with odin.
You wont get ota when flash counter >0 so give it a try.
Hopefully this helps
EDIT: If the new modem wont appear after a odin flash then uncheck the auto reboot option in odin and flash the modem twice, that helped for me.
Device Status is showing as custom, because you had flashed non-stock rom...
so the wifi not working, but can you make call??
The first time I flashed OMEGA ROM, wifi did not work, but flashed Adam kernel fixing the issue.
Look at his attachment, mobile connection seems working
@polcup please report back if it worked.

Wifi is now working after I flashedlashed the I9505XXUBMGA modem. Rebooted and I had wifi. However About device still shows XXUBMEA baseband.
Calls and mobile date is fine.

Yep, I will try that over lunch and see if it works. Not sure that will get me to the XXUBMGA modem though but its certainly a step in the right direction.
I really appreciate both your replys. Thanks.
Look at my edit in first post.
Uncheck auto reboot in odin and flash only the modem twice (manual reboot to download mode after first flash) after second flash reboot device.
That worked for me

Superb! I will try that as well. Thanks!!
Update
I was unable to root I9505XXUBMGA. CF-Autoroot didnt stick. I tried a couple of installs. One through Odin and one through CWM. Neither took.
I flashed an older pre-rooted stock rom I had XXUBMEA and then ran Triangle away. It returned the counter to '0' and brought the status back to official.
So now im back to stock MEA and to be honest I am happy to stay here for a bit. I will maybe move up to MGA if I find a pre-rooted version.
Thanks for your help.
Sorted!

I just installed Mobile ODIN from the Play store and used it to flash MF9 Modem and Modem #2
It rebooted into the Green download mode, I held the power off... it rebooted into the Mobile ODIN Blue android mode and said it flashed the Modem and Modem #2 then it got stuck on the Samsung screen for over 2 mins. I held the power button it rebooted and whent to the Samsung screen and now will never get past the Samsung screen.
I tried booting in to the recovery, wiping everything and then reinstalling CM 10.1 no luck..... I only have Linux computers.... is there any way for me to fix this?
I plan on installing Win 7 on a spair hdd and then use Odin3 to flash the whole device to MF9. Dose that sound like a good plan to you?

You have a good plan, just remember in the future not to flash modem with mobile Odin. It doesn't flash modem. I found that out the hard way also.

Wow, that took me about 10 hours to fix my phone
After installing Win 7 on a spar hdd I reinstalled the MF9 firmware with Odin 3.07... still bootloop with newest CM 10.1
Then I tried 3 times to download the compete deodexed rooted stock MF9 download keep failing or the md5 was wrong, arg.
Then I downloaded the One Click Rooted Stock MDC. That took 2hr's to download becuase it would not go faster then about 220KBs, arg.
Installed the full rooted MDC using the One Click Odin program, and my phone booted However Baseband was still saying MF9, strange. Wifi would not work, probably because of the firmware miss-match.
I then downloaded the Tri Force ROM and 3.1 update. That's all MF9 TW and now everything works as it should
I think I'll just stick with this Tri Force rom for awhile now... I've had my fill of Odin
Hello, so i was using the AICP rom for the s4 i9500 and it wasnt working very well so i thought i change to cyanogen mod 11 4.4.4 .I used TWRP to do a factory reset on my phone and i cleared the cache. Although i accidentally deleted the files i had on my sd aswell and as i didnt have a sd card adapter i thought i would go to the stock and just stay at that. I downloaded the correct file from sam mobile for the i9500 and used odin 3.09 to flash it using the PA. During the flash odin encountered an error and whenever i try to startup my phone it gives me a kies error and then it turns off. after it turns of it wont go back to the error for at least 1h. What Do I Doooo? :crying::crying:
Odin
Try using another odin version: Odin 3.07 if the 3.07 didn't work try with Odin 1.85

Download a 4.4.2 rom for your phone. REMEMBER IF YOU ARE FLASHING ANYTHING BELOW 4.4.2 IT WONT ALLOW YOU TO.
4.4.2 is a must (if you were already on 4.4.2)
Put the phone in download mode
Flash the stock rom via odin 3.09

I have been having a sporadic signal drop issue, it happens when my device toggles to LTE and lasts a couple minutes every time. I just flashed my native bootloader stock firmware (MDL) via ODIN, and still having the same drop signal issue.
Is there a more thorough way to flash back to a stock version? i want to try everything i can at this point to get rid of this pesky signal drop issue, although i am starting to worry my problem could possibly be hardware related...
If you flashed the stock mdl from sammobile.com that's the best you're going to be able to do

Via Odin? I forget, but I thought there was another way to flash a firmware...an exe file that completely wipes and restores? When I flashed stock with Odin I am pretty sure I still had recovery. I thought there was a more complete way to install stock.
Is doing a kies flash much different? I have forgotten how to do that
Since you're on the MDL firmware and can flash the MDL tar file in ODIN, flash it again but this time right after it's done flashing and you disconnect the phone from the PC, do a data factory reset in stock recovery. That might fix your issue.
I have lost the phone that has been working for ages. I am broke atm. Please help I need to use my phone. I was trying to get my radio to work again because I lost data a couple weeks back. So I have spent more time than I even should have for this trying to fix it.
I have run Odin 3.07 with
lineage-15.1-20190210-UNOFFICIAL-jfltexx
lineage-14.1-20190212-nightly-jfltexx-signed
and
open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20190209
I have wiped everything and tried 2 different system boards ;
from download mode I have
used I337MVLSGQB1_I337MOYAGQB1_I337MVLSGQB1_HOME.tar
to reload with nothing checked but F. Reset Time.
pulled out the cable then the battery.
went straght to recovery (system was going there already) to do first stage unpack with android and progress bar.
It said BAR and END
I went in back in after restart, and a full wipe.
And after a long wait .. the system very glitchy, slow like something was running in the background (modem ?) if I open the phone app it wont close and calls are silent. then resets over and over..
I have tried custom roms, and flashing latest modem and original ? Whats up ? anyone
PLEAESSEEE help soon .. I am going crazy cuz this is literally my only phone and I need to use it !!!!
Had an old system board and tried to replace it and ended up in the same place with the second board ?!?! what is going on !

I know your post was a while ago but you cannot use Odin to flash a custom ROM.
Are you flashing the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com or updato.com?

I ended up using the pixel experience rom. I am sure I have the wrong bootloader and modem for i337m though. It works with data when I reset network settings and re-enable. Data each reboot. For the longest time lineage 9505 ROMs worked until like Feb 5th I saw the data just fall use just fall off. I couldn't get chatr to work anymore. It was a nightmare I went to stock and , pitted the phone and it would only function until I added TWRP and tried a nougat rom or even with latest modem. Wifi was evn a problem. Now I am using like a lollipop bootloader with the green battery charging and modem isn't right. When I flash a different modem and bootloader in Odin and rip the battery and then cableit doesn't even change .
Wtf?

I'm not sure how you could flash the wrong bootloader unless it was flashed using TWRP or CWM. To confirm, boot into download mode to see the model # listed on the screen.
Are the modem and bootloader matched; i.e. the phone is running a 5.0 bootloader and modem? To easily ensure that both are matched, you can flash the latest stock ROM using Odin.
If the modem version is not changing after being flashed, it is possible that the internal memory is faulty.
