S4 9505 stuck in bootloop

Hi,
Earlier today I was trying to install the 4.3 omega rom (GE), so I went into recovery and accidently wiped the data before I installed the rom. I am not sure what caused the issue my phone is just stuck on the S4 boot screen.
I tried reinstalling the previous rom (Omega 4.2.2) and it made no difference. I have TWRP recovery and I can get into recovery fine. I noticed that I cannot factory reset from TWRP and it says E/data cannot be mount, reset failed.
I am not sure what to do and how to fix my phone I tried to look for e/data issue but I cannot find much on that issue and I am noobie to this so I cannot understand some processes that are mentioned. I tried not to mess around too much after I realised its stuck.
Please help!

Thanks I will try that now, takes long to download the stock rom. I will report back if success.
I just did a stock firmware install through odin, now my phone is stuck on logo! Help!
Edit: I did some research and rebooted the phone on stock recovery, did a factory reset and restarted. It solved the issue and mine is back to life and working! Thank you for all your help!

Having Problems in flashing roms

On flashing a Custom Rom, my phone gets stucked with continous FC ("Unfortunately Phone Crashed","Press OK") just after the phone boots.
I had faced the same problem earlier so someone on XDA suggested to use twrp recovery. Then i flashed the purity rom and it worked fine, but then as you may know now, as PA is out, so flashed it and again i'm getting continuous fc error....
currently i'm using purity rom, stock kernel and twrp recovery (2.6.3.3)
I would flash back to a stock 4.2.2 and start over. I find that this is the only way I can install certain roms.

Strange. Are you updating the bootloader and radio before flashing a 4.4 rom?
Are you doing a factory reset???? And flashing a proper gapps after ROM? You should always do this when going from one ROM to another. Sometimes a manual format of /system is necessary also.
no i am not updating my bootloader and radio before flashing (rather didn't know if i had to update them,fyi i bought my nexus 4 this september)....and yes i'm doing a factory reset (using the wipe option in twrp recovery which warns clearing of data, cache and dalvik memory)

Modem error when installing any lollipop ROM

Hi,
My Sprint Note 3phone is currently using a Kitkat ROM and TWR recovery. I tried some Lollipop ROMS. After flash the ROM, the phone boot to the page of Android setting, then the UI crashed and the phone reboot, showing Modem error.
Anyone has similar experience or have any idea why this happen? Thanks a lot.
First try wiping all data , cache, dalvik cache and others.
Then install fresh lollipop stock rom from sammobile.com of your phone model and then try to flash it via ODIN rather than through TWRP.
There are many guides on flashing lollipop roms, just read them you'll get it.?✌

wiered issue with moving from cyanogenmod to stock modded rom on g900fd

hey guys ... i was running cm12.1 on my duos s5 nicly then i wanted to move back to stock so i wiped all and flashed a rom i was using before and usually works i mean tested ... all goes well until the samsung logo appears and the phone sits there ! ... i tried flashing stock boc using odin and it booted so i went back and flashed the rom again and still stucks on logo again .... im using the kernel from the stock and also the flashing script is tested before its not something new ... why is this happeing ? what can prevent the rom from booting even to animation rather than a faulty kernel ?
Have you tried wiping again after Stock flash? I have had issues before where something seems to linger with the booting if wipe is done before flash.
Yea, I'd try factory resetting, if that fails, try flashing the PIT file for that mode S5 along with the 100% stock ROM - if that boots, flash your modded stock again
Flashing back
Hi man
First of all be sure you picked the right firmware. Clear the cache and try a factory reset. Then try to flash it again using Odin's latest version. Hope you'll make it.

G928G ZTO in Trouble

Hi there,
I have a G928G and was using it with Audax 7.1. Did a dirty flash to 8.1 and things started getting south... The device would hang or reboot from nothing from time to time and now it keeps rebooting from bootanim.
To make a long story short, I decided to go back to stock. Flashed a stock rom I had in my hadrddrive (G928GUBS2BPD1_G928GZTO2BPC3_G928GUBU2BPC1) through Odin but... to my surprise, it didn't solve the problem! I even went to the bootloader, wiped everything and reflashed through odin. Same thing, it keeps rebooting from boot animation.
Any ideas? Suggestions?
What would it take to reflash everything froms cratch (modem, firmware, re-partition etc etc)? Is it possible? I just want to rule out any glitch or corruption the device might have...
Thanks in advance!
