Apologies if I'm in the wrong section.
I updated my s4 to lollipop via Odin and it was successful.
Problem is, when I go on apps like YouTube or Google Now. It says can't establish a reliable connection and it keeps happening. On my brother's phone it's fine. Today I booted into recovery mode to check if I installed CWM (just in case I forgot) then when I rebooted the phone, the screen was black and it was showing apps were force closing. I rebooted into recovery again, wiped cache yet still same problem so I reset the entire phone and when I tried signing into Google, it said can't establish a reliable connection and this happened once earlier. Can someone please help me!!
I have installed the correct firmware
I would start with a factory reset.
And CWM is highly outdated and shouldn't be used anymore. Use TWRP to avoid possible conflicts.
Yeah I do factory data resets but after doing it, when I try to sign into Google, it says 'can't find a reliable connection' then I'd have to flash the stock firmware via odin again. When I try installing TWRP on odin, it freezes. I tried different versions of odin but still freezes. It might be the TWRP I chose but I can't find any that end with md5

So I have an Canadian Note 3, SM-N9008W8 phone.
I had it rooted without issue. I then installed TWRP.
Once I install X-Note, I started to have issues. At first it worked, booted into it fine. Then WiFi & Mobile didn't work, so I found a fix, installed the WiFi fix, rebooted, then the mobile fix, rebooted. Though mobile still didn't work, so I tried factory reset, and a re-install of them all to fix it, but now it just keeps rebooting. Either it gets to the booting screen and keeps rebooting, or sometimes it boots into the OS, but after a bit it reboots.
The original zip file for the OS is not on the phone anymore, so I can't even try a re-install of it, and I have done a factory/data reset a few times, same issue, its stuck.
So now I don't know what to do.

pull the battery out for a 1 minute see if that works, if not have you got the latest TWRP xnote does say only tested with the latest one ,you can download stock from here www.sammobile.com but you will loes root
Yea, that website has nothing for Note 3s...?
Yes latest TWRP, and battery pull did nothing. The phone is completely screwed
Where else would I find stock ODIN files for Canadian note 3?
samsung-updates.com - and a bit of googling if not there, there will be some somewhere.
Found one but no luck.
Somehow after using Odin and putting stock on there, its still boot looping. I have tried it 12 times, differnet ways, no luck. It makes no sense.
Maybe its Windows 8.1? I just tried on Windows 7, but now Odin shows FAIL when I did it.
I was on X-note and I have Same problem since yesterday I did factory reset and install different rom but doesn't work I install original rom by odin but still rebooting and no signal and wifi doesn't work so what's the problem is it software or hardware ..?
Help us guys

I have galaxy s4 gt i9500 and I m from india. I recently updated to lollipop and rooted by phone and installed philz recovery but later decided to unroot it using supersu unroot option. The strange thing is that i never got philz recovery but my phone was always rooted. All root apps worked fine. Anyways i decided to unroot it.
Now, after unrooting using supersu complete unroot option, i checked for updates and downloaded and ran the 326mb update available in india but the update always fails at 25% and when my phone boots normally , all apps force stop - yes all apps, i see only a black screen and errors of all apps that have forced stoped and only thing i can do is click on ok and power off or reboot my phone.
I cant boot into recovery as if i do that it goes to system update and throws an error at 25%
Please help, i have some imp data which i did not back up - phone is not detected in the pc / kies etc.
Extra info: I once did wipe cache partition and got the exact same issue when of all apps force stoppin on boot but then i went into recovery mode and did factory reset and all was fine.
Thanks - all replies appreciated.
you can't install official updates using a custom recovery
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app
Just download the firmware from sammobile or another source!
Download Odin v3.09
Extract (unzip) the firmware file and the odin
Turn off the phone and go into download mode by pres and hold the (Volume down key+Home key+Power key)
Run the Odin and add the firmware file in AP/PDA section
Connect the phone when you get the blue icon in com-id (Before connecting please make sure you installed the proper drivers of your phone. Recommended to install samsung kies3 it will automatically installs all the drivers)
Tick only auto reboot and F. Reset time boxes
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes.
This will install the stock firmware and all the errors will be gone after installing.
^^ Thanks!!
Will this process wipe all data of my phone or all the data will be intact ??
Sammobile has the version 5.0.1 and I am already on 5.0.1 - will it cause any issue ??

Its better to make a backup of your data. But this process will not wipe ur data. Better you do factory reset after installing the firmware because u r experiencing errors. No issue u can still install 5.0.1
Hi I was wondering if you were able to fix your problem. I have the exactly same symptoms with my phone however I got there in a different way.
I got myself in a big problem when trying to change the SuperUS app that go installed with [GT-I9500] CF-Auto-Root method.
I was able to root my S4 i9500 following the "[GT-I9500] CF-Auto-Root" threat a few days ago and everything was good.
Then for some reason (I still want to remember what was the reason) I decided to change the superUS app with Superuser clockworkmod app (I am a noob and I deserve this I know). anyway I downloaded the other app from google play and when I opened it say it has to instal the binaries, I said ok and the phone reset and went directly to download mode I believe.
It was doing something but whatever it did it failed. So I said ok not big deal I will reset the phone and end of story. However now when I boot up the phone when it passes the samsung logo and start to load up the OS every single app fails to load, "unfortunaly xxxxx has stopped" I press ok and then it goes to the next "unfortunaly yyyyyy has stopped" and the next and the next and the OS never loads. The screen just remain black until I press power and gave me the option to power off, reset, airplane mode, etc.
IS there a way to fix o revert this. I am able to get to download mode but ODIN does not detect the phone (odin detects the phone when the phone is in normal mode tho???)
I am able to get to the stock recovery too. Can i fix this from sd card?
any guidance would be appreciated.
I bought an a tablet from work that was a display,i got it really cheap,but i need help getting it to where i can use it.
Ok it is a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 SM-T530NU.
The problem is it got password protected by some random customer,and when i try to factory reset it says "MDM does not allow factory reset".
i came across a video telling me how to get around it,but i have to be able to get into the device,and everything i look up about getting past a password says to just factory reset.
Plus everything i lookup about reinstalling android says i need to be enable USB debugging mode,but i can't due to the password.
I tried installing stock firmware using odin and it shows in recovery mode as a slighty different version,but the password is still in place,and it still says the same thing when i try to factory reset.
i even just tried to root it using CF Auto Root,and it still is doing the same thing.
So i am stuck and i have no idea what i can do to fix it, someone please help me...
EDITk i got it to work.
I installed TWRP recovery firmware. Used this to wipe all data and recover the tablet to factory condition. This removed the OS at the same time. Upon reboot allowed the device to be rooted with SU.
Then i put the device into download mode, and re-installed the stock rom.
when youre in download mode usb debugging is on.... no need to enable it in
rom. install twrp to it from odin, then do full wipe, reboot to recovery and clean install stock firmware that will kill all files and rom passwords.
Hi everyone, just tried to root my i9507 S4 for the first time. Went really awful. I used the Chainfire Auto Root from his website for Android Lollipop (this one to be precise) and attempted to get it up and running through the included Samsung Odin. It booted in successfully and I could reach the home screen. I had SuperSU and could open it - but I think something stopped working along the way and everything crashed at once after just a few moments (whether I opened SuperSU or not). Google Play didn't open. I attempted to do a full-install from SuperSU, which got rid of SuperSU but the problems remained, awesome. Rebooting now changed nothing. So I went to Sammobile and downloaded the correct firmware (this one), and I attempted to restore with Odin using the same method as I did rooting. Everything seemed to be going to plan with Android "updating" and the like, and SuperSU is still gone, but the same problem remains. As expected all of my data remained. I'm tempted to do a full-reset at this point but I'd like you guys' opinion first. I'm new to all this - as you have probably guessed! - so please be nice-ish (I deserve some of the flack I'm sure). Thanks guys
Just attempted clearing cache thru recovery (stock) - no changes.
Full wipe then install firmware with Odin.
Through recovery I presume?
Do this: open Odin, uncheck everything except f reset time. Flash ROM. When you see the word reset in the Odin status window, remove USB cable from the phone, remove battery, replace battery, boot into stock recovery, perform a data/factory reset, reboot.
This method will wipe all of your data.

Would this not brick the device? Thanks though.
You only see the word reset if the firmware was flashed. I do this for the note 1, note 2, note 3, s2, s3, and s4.
So basically, few months ago i tried to root the phone, get new recovery and different rom. If I remember correctly I got stuck trying to get custom recovery to work, because everytime I restarted phone it would be replaced by the stock one. So I left the phone as it was, and disabled the TWRP app on it. Problem was, I could not update phone. Today I tried to completely revert to stock.
I flashed stock recovery but when I tried to install update from the phone storage, it did not even give me option to select a file.
I tried to update the recovery to newer one which gave me the option to select a file, but the installation got canceled after few seconds, putting me back on the file selection screen in recovery.
I tried to instal TWRP but I can't even boot into it at all because the phone is just stuck with blackscreen and lightblue led light.
I tried to ADB sideload the newest stock rom that I downloaded from OP5 site but this one went to around 50% and then crashed as well.
I also tried to do the update using the Settings>System update > Local Upgrade but this one also fails once it gets into recovery.
I tried wiping cache/reset system settings or wiping every data on the phone before any update but none of it seems to help and everytime I restart the phone afterwards the TWRP app is still there needing an update.
I tried to just lock the bootloader but I got the "Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot" message followed by link to google support. I assume that is because of the TWRP app that is on the phone but I can't get rid of it no matter what I try. I tried searching for people having simillar problems but I couldn't find anything that would help me.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
You can go with the last resort and use the Unbrick tool.
