[Q] HELP!!! - rooted my encrypted S4 and cant get past decrypt password.

Hi all,
NEED some urgent help.
i rooted, recovered and installed the jellybean 4.3 ROM - everything worked fine, so i then then encrypted my S4 in the settings menu_
i then noticed that the SuperSU app i downloaded on play said that it didnt have root access.
i then proceeded to repeat the above link but i didnt decrypt the device before hand.
Rooting with CF Auto root worked fine, recovery wit philz touch_5.17.7 also worked fine and i installed the rom again.
when my S4 switches on, everything looks fine until i'm asked for my password for decrypting, my password is correct but cant get past this stage, screen goes blank, black even like its turned off, it vibrates once then about 30 secs vibrates twice, then nothing, it just looks like its turned off.

I see exactly the same thing, and another user has reported what seems to be a similar problem: plus.google.com/+Chainfire/posts/hi7knjUuSoX (sorry, it won't let me post a link)
I don't know of any fix for it yet.

[Q] Phone Bricked/Dead - Not even download mode

Hi ,
Am running PAC 4.4 ; My AT&T s4 is rooted. Everything was running fine except for the occasional bugs and restarts cause of them. But today suddenly, it just went fro sleep mode to off.When i turn it back on; just vibrates and displays the bootlogo and shuts off again. I will have to remove the battery and put it back in for it to start again
Tried going into download mode but it just shuts off when i make a choice of pressing the volume up to confirm , sometime after going into download mode.
It wont start with the usb connected. Any help is appreciated.Thanks

[Q] Device keeps booting into recovery mode

Everything's just fine when the device turned on. It's also worked alright when I turned it off. But here's the problem. Everytime I plug in charger when my device turned off it's always booting into recovery mode. I know flashing with odin or simply factory-reset my device will fix all the trouble but I wonder if there's a way to simply fix the trouble without using such a big step and start all over again. Pardon my grammar. Any response will be appreciated

wifii dosent turn on (i9500)

currently on lollipop /blutooth works fine
the wifi turns grey or dim green then turns off ,so i went to a friend said that the IC is ok because the Bluetooth works fine so i tried the following
{
factory reset worked for a couple of hours then died again tried resitting again but didnt work
--restart phone on airplane mode
--changing the os (tried kitkatt - lolipop- and a custom system) non helped
-- removing the battery without turning the phone off , made it work couple of hours then died again so i removed it again and didnt work the second time
--installed root and deleted /data/misc/wifi/ the wifi config files then restarted (dont remember their names but didnt work)
--tried wifi fix app
-- used *#0011# to turn off wifi power saving mode but still not working
}
i d be grateful for any idea u might send

Wi-Fi switch-on issue in Glowlight 3

Hi everybody!
After several not lucky rooting attemps, Nook Glowlight 3 starts to freeze/lag heavily whenever Wi-Fi is switched on. Using default ROM, it just lags from the very begining - i.e. "get started" screen and than freezes at "turning on Wi-Fi screen". With custom TWRP-installed ROM, system works fine and smooth up until I switch-on Wi-Fi in settings. And then it freezes, with only harware reboot working, but freezes again now just during reboot. TWRP factory reset helps up until i switch-on Wi-Fi in settings again...
Is there a way to double-check in adb/fastboot that Wi-Fi module is indeed the reason for the problems and how can I restore it to normal state? ie radio image or smth else
Thank you for any help and ideas.
See logcat attached. Btw, logcat command also freezes after i switch-on Wi-Fi in settings
