Hi, I have a s5 (Singapore) G900F. I rooted it and installed lollipop. (it was initially running kk 4.4.2) However, when I restarted, it got stuck in recovery booting. I tried reflashing the stock lollipop rom from sammobile and that didn't work. I then tried the same thing but with nan erase all. When that didn't work I tried the original kk 4.4.2 rom with a G900F pit file from xda. Now my phone is stuck in the firmware update (connect to kies mode). Any advice at all would really be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Guys,
After rooting my phone, trying different Custom Roms and reverting to stock a couple of times, I now have soft bricked my S4, or at least I hope it's only a soft brick.
I upgraded from JB 4.3 to Kitkat 4.4 and TWRP recovery a couple of months back. I live in Australia and as yet we don't have access to Stock Kitkat 4.4, so I flashed the United Kingdom XXUGNG8 (BTU) firmware. The phone began to lag and a couple of the functions refused to work, so without thinking I attempted to flash back to JB 4.3.........I know, I know you can't do that, but tat the time I was frustrated with it's performance and I didn't think before I acted.
Anyway, first I was unable to enter Recovery mode......nothing worked, the phone would just boot to the error screen. I was able using Odin 3.07, T erase all, flash a .pit file and obtain a "pass".
Get pit for mapping
Firmware update start
RQT close
Res ok
Removed
Remain Port.......0
All threads completed (Success 1/Fail 0)
Then when I attempt to flash a stock rom, it fails every time at "System Write".
I now have discovered that a "Phil's Touch recovery .tar" can be flashed, but nothing else.
When I boot the phone up, it hangs at the Samsung Galaxy S4 iGT9505 screen.
What have I done wrong guys, have I completely corrupted the phone, or is it recoverable? Please Help.
Regards.
You can't revert back to 4.3.
So flash a custom rom or a stock 4.4.2 rom and you will be fine.

Hi
I have a G900F and was going to install the alliance rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2716535
It said i had to update my bootloader and modem first, i downloaded the files and did this but now my phone is stuck in boot loop.
How can i fix this please are there any stock modems or bootloaders i can renstall via odin to fix this?
EDIT: FIxed now i downloaded stock firmware and reinstalled and started from scratch.
Many thanks
When I updated my S5 from ANG2 to ANL1 through Odin the modem/baseband didn't change and is still on ANG2. From where can I download just the basebands of the SM-G900F so that I can flash the latest ANL1 modem (and later the lollipop bootloader, modem and kernel)?
Also will flashing stock Lollipop on my phone change both baseband and rom or I would have to change baseband manually (don't know from where to download it :/).
My phone had the official 4.4.2 then I got the lollipop 5.0.1 and installed with Odin, i disliked by excessive battery consumption and some mistakes.
So after I downloaded from SamMobile the official firmware for my country COL(COLOMBIA) in 4.4.2 but after installation with Odin, does not pass the first ever Samsung logo, then i got an international version 4.4.2 for this, and happened the same this didn't pass the first logo after installation, again temporarily put the 5.0.1 and this shows an error saying Error "Process Android.process.acore stopped, I do not know if I will have damaged something. what I can do to return to 4.4 .2? :crying:
try This reinstall 4.4.2 from odin if you stuck do factory rest and wipe cache in recovery mode
maybe you lose imei and basband this happned to me to fix this use lollipop modem
Note: to have lollipop modem install an lollipop rom from sammobile then extract it and go install 7zip and open the lollipop fimeware(i9500****.tar) you have extracted and you see modem.bin take it and use odin by flashing in cp/phone in odin.
i hope i hellped you
Hello there. So, this is my actual situation: I have a galaxy s4 on stock Lollipop. Due a few issues, I decided to try to downgrade to kitkat I flashed via Odin a stock kk fw, but unluckyly I Haven't considered Knox bootloader, and now the phone stucks in bootloop. I tried to enter recovery, but it doesn't even work.
Is there any way to save it? Actually, I'm downloading stock lollipop firmware to flash it from Odin. Could it work ?
Thanks everyone will give help
Yes, flash the latest stock ROM in Odin to get the phone back to stock.
Hey Guys,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime SM-G530H, the updater asked me to update the Android into Lollipop from its original firmware Kitkat 4.4.4. After finished installing, it started bootloop, it wouldn't boot to the Android. I tried to search from many sources, to fix my phone, and I found some thread that I must to reflash the firmware because they said it's corrupted. After that, I downloaded Odin, the firmware (Android Lollipop) and flash it. It still can't boot to the Android. I tried to flash to Kitkat and it seems that the Odin was failed to flash the firmware. I can't find the CSC and PDA code from the phone because I can't boot into Android. I also tried Kies and SmartSwitch to initialize my phone, but it didn't work.
What should I do now???
