All caps is rude. We understand you're having an issue but there's no need to shout.
Now then, try changing which USB port you're using and flash again through Odin.

Hello folks,
Yesterday I followed this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679563) and root my phone. But after using one day I didn't feel good using jelly bean on my galaxy so I decided to unroot my phone and revert it back to my previous version that was android 2.3.6 gingerbread. I unroot my phone and did factory reset from recovery mode but now my phone is not working and even recovery mode is not opening. It is just showing starting logo. Please someone help me to fix this problem so i can get back my phone.
Thanks

Pull the battery, wait 30 sconds. If you have a Jig insert it in the phone`s usb port to get into download mode. If not press volume down and the power button and you will get into downloadmode and then flash a stock rom with Odin. See item 1 and 2 of my signature.
It's Not Working !

Did this happen after using Kies? If it did (and you weren't rooted), you could either take it back to the store where you purchased it or get in touch with Samsung for a warranty repair.
pull of battery -->plug usb jig --> pull battery --> download mode --> unplug usbjig --> odin flash stock firmware

...sounds like an OTA bricked your phone. If that's the case (and you don't have a jig), you've definitely need to take it back to where you got it.
A totally legit brick by the sounds of it.
Take it to service for fix or replace. Easy

Seeking help for identifying suitable ROM for my S4 I9500

I have purchased S4 I9500 from a local shop. I am not sure about the country of origin of the Phone. There is SU app available in phone which means the phone is rooted. Please have a look at the attached screenshots and advise me about the phone. Is it on some custom ROM? I want to install S5 kind of ROM on it. Where I can find suitable ROM for my phone.

The build number makes me think yes, it is on some kind of custom rom. Since it's a I9500 then all ROMs in this I9500 threads should be working on your device. If you are looking for S5 kind of ROM then I suggests OzcanRom by @citymen34 :angel: it works great on my device and contains most of the S5 apps and features. Make sure you make a full backup in recovery first then flash the new rom in case it's not working :victory::victory::victory:

You need to download Odin and flash TWRP through Odin.
Click the Odin3 v3.07 file to start Odin. Auto Reboot should be selected by default. If not, select it and only select Auto Reboot and also make sure re-partition is not selected.
Power off your phone. Then hold the power button and volume down until you see the warning screen then press volume up button to get to download mode
Now connect your phone to the computer. You will see the com port light up when Odin recognizes your phone. Press the PDA button, browse to the TWRP .tar file and select it.
Finally press start :victory:
Press thank if I help you :angel:

your phone is #CHINA CLONE. sorry but you ain't lucky dude, am sure even when booting it doesn't display I9500, just Galaxy S4.
P.S. Wrong section for such questions.
Oh . But I don't see anything low in quality or less in features.

You have to flash the Rom which is produced for your country. Csc file must match with your phone's CSC

Installed successfully on 530H. But the screen becomes small by a very little margin. Very very little. I mean its unnoticeable if u dont notice it. Also it shows "RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING Set Warranty Bit : recovery" on the boot. And if u reboot it or if u turn it off then boot it, it always goes into recovery. Other than that.. It works fine. Does all other stuff.
Great Work
Thanks brother, its work for me, Now i am finishing backup my rom and finishing deodex my rom... Waiting for CyanogenMod Support...

I have exact same problem with you, my grand prime always go to recovery mode everytime i reboot my phone, i know its not very big problem, but kinda annoying because i have to reboot my prime twice everytime i reboot it,.... first reboot goes to recovery mode, and then reboot system now (thats my second reboot) and finally go to normal mode.
Does anybody have a simple solution to fix this?
Other than that problem, this CMW really helpful
Thanks
report a problem, friend:
when I start to load the smartphone off, there goes the animation of the battery charging and only I restarted the recovery, so there is no way that you can carry off.
