[Q] Booting Problem

Hey Guys,
i have a problem with flashing custom recovery on my I9505(jfltexx).
When i flash "DBT-I9505XXUBMEA-20130601103235" via Odin and in addition the "CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505" my phone boots up, most of the time but not all the time. Now when i try to flash custom Recovery via Odin, my phone stucks at the Samsung Galaxy Logo and it wont continue. Even if i enter the standard recovery from Goomanager and i select "reboot system now" it stucks on the Logo!
Any Help?
Thanks in Advance

U can try going to Stock or The recovery u installed which ever u are able to open
Just wipe cache & reboot
It should work well if this does not work
Flash a pre rooted firmware

And flash PHILZ recovery 100 % there wont be any problem and ya after flashing a firmware do Reset from the device and then flash recovery

Yeah but thats the problem. I can't enter the recovery mode and when i try to flash a PRE-rooted rom from djembey my device stuck at the BootLogo.
In a nutshell: There is no option performing a wipe!

Thanks for your effort. But i have to tell you the whole Story.
Yesterday i wanted to install the PA-Rom from verttigo. Before i was on the OMEGA 6.0 Version with Ktsoonez custom kernel. So i entered the recovery mode, did a backup, Full-Wipe, and then the huge MISTAKE, I formatted data and system and everything was gone. No Backup i could reinstall nor a ROM i could install. Than my phone rebooted and stucked at the samsung Logo. So i thought the F shall i do?!?!
I entered the download Mode and tried to install the prerooted Rom from djembey but i stucked also on the samsung logo. Since than im sitting in front of my Phone crying!

Ok now i get it as per what i see i can still get your device back to normal but myte take multiple try rest assured it will work
1st flash a stock firmware again (not rooted pure stock) this time using pit file along with firmware
and while flashing the firmware using odin and pit do check re-partition also
Note with out pit file do not check the re-partition box
and once the flashing is done device should boot if its not booting
go to stock recovery like how i told u earlier and do factory reset and wipe cache
and reboot
and tell me the status.. all the best

So let me get this clear. In Odin i should check the stock Rom in PIT instead of PDA? And check the Re-Partion box?

In Odin
PDA - u should select firmware stock one
PIT - select pit file
Re- partition should be check follow the image and flash
If Re-Partition is checked u must have pit file also do not forget that else u myte brick ur device

Based on what you said, it seem like you still have all the partitions intact. Just that they are empty right now.
Did you do a full backup before all this problem happen? Or did you do a custom backup?
Are your backups stored in external memory and is a full backup? If so, try using custom recovery to restore your backup?

Chill. Your phone is definitely not bricked. I encountered your problem before when i was experimenting with something.
- Right now, boot to whatever recovery that you have. Try to wipe cache, dalvik, and any other partition if possible.
- After that, boot to download mode and try to flash STOCK rom using odin. Check that flash was success.
- Try to boot your phone and report here on what happens.
Edit: You might want to consider restarting your computer and changing usb port. "Faulty" Usb port will affect the flashing part.

Behave your speech smart guy, they are trying to help!
general rule on how to fix a bootloop:
1- Wipe data and cache. If not,
2- Restore a nandroid backup if available. If not,
3- Flash stock firmware, If not,
4- Flash stock firmware with pit file (you can try pit file alone).

[Q] Omega v20.1 - Stuck at boot

I'm trying to install Omega v20.1 (coming from v13) on my galaxy S4 I9505
These are the steps i followed:
1. Backuped phone (nadroid backup + titanium)
2. Flashed the new bootloder and modems with odin v1.85 -> I9505XXUFNA1_Bootloader_Modems.tar (PDA slot)
No auto reboot, waited 3 minutes after odin was done before reboot
3. Booted to Recovery (TWRP newest version) and flashed Omega v20.1 and then restarted phone.
The spinning logo apperas at boot and stays spinning for 15+ minutes (stuck at boot)
Any ideas on what went wrong? And how to make it work? According to all threads I've read this is a school book example on how to do it.
Plz, anyone? (nand restore and v13 is back with a 0x1 know but that was expected)

then try this way mate
Wipe current ROM
Installed STOCK LEAKED NA1 (made sure wifi etc was working after flash)
Installed/flashed latest TWRP
Flashed Omega 20.x with full wipe
Set up phone etc (again making sure wifi and everything else was OK
Optional = And for good measure then performed a no-wipe install!

I'll give it a try, thanks.
Will reply in thread and let you (and anyone else interested) know

1. Full wipe
2. Install I9505XXUFNA1_I9505OXAFNA1_I9505XXUFNA1_OXA.zip via TWRP
3, Error flashing zip '/external_sd/I9505XXUFNA1...........
Fail

Hehe funny mate You need to Extract the file and I9505XXUFNA1_I9505OXAFNA1_I9505XXUFNA1_OXA.zip, Then you get a file called I9505XXUFNA1_I9505OXAFNA1_I9505XXUFNA1_HOME_OXA..tar.md 5 and flash it with odin by selecting PDA/AP , then follow the tutorial on top , Or follow this
Remember Flashing this or Omega will void your warranty.
Extract (unzip) the firmware file
- Download Odin3 v3.09
- Extract Odin .ZIP file
- Open Odin3 v3.09
- Restart phone in download mode (Press and hold Home + Power + Volume down buttons)
- Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
- Add - Add I9505XXUFNA1_I9505OXAFNA1_I9505XXUFNA1_HOME.tar.md 5 to AP
- Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
- Click start button, sit back and wait a few minutes.
- If you encounter any issues with the firmware (Any FC, Bootloop etc)
- Boot into recovery mode (Home+power+vol up)
- Choose to wipe/factory reset. (THIS WILL ERASE ALL OF YOUR DATA INCLUDING YOUR INTERNAL SD CARD!)
- Then choose reboot and you should be good to go!
Next step after your done flashing Stock
Again via odin pc flash the latest recovery TWRP or philz recovery Im not really sure about TWRP if they have .tar to flash ....
Wipe cache, dalvik cache data and system (Clean wipe!)
From recovery flash Omega 20.x with full wipe
Set up phone etc (again making sure wifi and everything else was OK)
Optional = And for good measure then performed a no-wipe install! Done!

[Q] Stock!

I putted Cynagemod or whatever it's called, but now i want back everything ass stock phone. I don't want that cynagemod anymore. How can i do that?

Hi,
Go to "Sammobile" website -> Firmware Database -> choose your model and download the stock firmware
i did this too and need a full day to download 1.100 MB (very slow server if u don't have premium account @ sammobile)
Next Step go to recovery mode and wipe everything (maybe not needed but i do this for safety)
u need samsung usb driver and Odin Flash program
Start Odin (i use odin3 1.85) click "PDA" and choose your ROM File
be sure that ONLY "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" is checked nothing more in Options
Now boot your Phone into Download Mode (power+home+volume down) and connect it to your PC USB
Odin should show now in the left bottom message box that your Phone is connected!
Press Start and wait (5-10 minutes)
your phone should restart automatic after successfully flash
Done

Any errors in recovery when you make full wipe?
If you have a "emmc"error ... the flash of the phone is ruined and the is no software solution for this just hardware
If the are no errors try to flash the bootloader or root the phone (it will voids your warranty)and try to flash a custom rom
If the phone is not rooted and still have warranty .. send it to cusomer service centre..it will replace the mother board

Reboot the phone in recovery mode. From TWRP go to Wipe/AdvancedWipe/ and tick DalickCache, System, Data, Internal Storage, Cache and "Swipe to Wipe".
Always from TWRP go back to the first page, hit "Install", search for SM-N910C_WanamLite.XXU1COH4.V3.0.NO-WIPE.zip in /external_sd and install it, after Wipe Dalvick and Cache.

When you download just the bootloader you have to put it in the BL button. But what I've linked is a modem/bootloader package and it has to be flashed from the AP button.

I'm not sure about it, but it may be the cause.

F*** sake. I'm sorry about that.
Download the right version of TWRP and flash it via ODIN (link) and try again all the steps.
EDIT:
Which version of ODIN are you using? Try to use the latest.

Thank you JJEgan,
Sorry for posting in wrong forum.
I just need some help to understand the below with the ROM installation
Rom Installation: (do I follow these steps alone?)
1. Download Phronesis rom and save it to your phone memory or sd card
(these step I understand - I will copy the rom to thesd card
2. Get a good recovery. TWRP recovery recommended, 2.8.7.0. Newer versions are not supported
(I have downloaded TWRP 2.8.7.0)
How do I install this?
3. Boot into recovery, factory reset (full wipe, clean install is recommended). Make choices in Aroma.
I get into TWRP recovery mode (volume up/home/power)
Make choices in Aroma? what choices must I make here?
4. Optional flash kernel of choice if you're
This is not so clear to me...
The other I understand. Just points 2, 3 and 4 I need help with to understand.
4. Reboot after successful install and wait for best rom in town to build. Allow about 10 - 15 minutes for first boot.
5. Your phone will reboot once after the first boot to complete customizations..
6. Sit back and enjoy
I will appreciate the help to understand more.
many thanks

Open Odin, uncheck everything except f reset time. Flash TWRP. When you see the word "reset" in the status window, remove USB cable from the phone, remove battery from the phone, replace battery, boot into recovery using power+vol up+home.
