Device soft brick after flashing rom

Hello all hope you will be able to help me.
Device : Nexus S I 9020
So basicly iam kinda new to whole this world of "android" former Iphone user.
last mounth i got my nexus S wich is my first android phone.
As soon as i got it i started to read guids and etc.
Root the device and ofc the nexy step was trying Rom`s.
but then a problem , every time i try to flash a rom i get status 7 error.
tryed every possible combination of restore / wipe etc...
nothing helped , so i came back to the stock one (backup i made before i started)
after a while i discovered the app Rom mananger , wich install rom update recovery etc...
so i updated my recovery and installed CM7 using it.
used it for a while and went back to the stock.
after cople of days tryed to install MIUI using rom manger every thing went clear and after the intall device reboot it self and then stuck on the Google logo with the lock in the botom of the screen.
and nothing helped since then restore , factory reset/restore / wipe`s etc.
as last resort i tryed Odin and it worked like a charm got my device back and runing.
today i tryed to install a new rom AOASP(i think , or some thing like that) in the first time from the recovery (several times) with every possible wipe.
all the time status 7 error , then went to rom mananger and again same thing.
stuck on the google logo.
now iam gonna use Odin again hope it will work this time too.
Any idea how to resolve it , or why this is happen ?
and how can i resolve the status 7 error and what does it mean ?
Thank you all.
(sorry for this been so long , wanted to give as much details as possible)

Contact this guy. Looks like the same problem. If you can't get it going, I can also fix it so just PM me...

doesnt seem to be the same problem like i had.
Any way at this point i was able to restore my phone using Odin , and then restore it into my stock backup (including all my data and etc...)
but the problem remain the same.
cant install any rom (status 7 error).
and when i try to install any rom using Rom mananger iam stuck on the google logo after the reboot.
so what can i do ?

Problem solved by using Odin ro restore it and after that flash Nanbackup and finally updating the CWM recovery.
If any one get the problem try this
Btw SuperAOSP is GREAT !!!!

[Q] GT-i9500 has no OS installed.

Hi everyone I just recently purchased a used S4 the GT-i9500. Everything seemed fine until I got home. It detected my T-Mobile Sim fine but I could only access 2G data and could not connect to any WiFi network I came across. The rom was stock 4.2.2 and the phone was rooted pre purchase. So after fiddling around for a few minutes I discovered the previous owner had flashed TWRP v2.4.1.0 as his choice for a Custom Recovery. Now at this point I had decided to flash on a Custom Rom and of course I first made a backup before flashing on WanamLite. Now after attempting to flash it I immediately received a failure. I tried turning off the signature verification and it did not flash. Now in my frustration i attempted to wipe everything and tried flashing Omega Rom v14. Now i was able to go through with the installation and choose what I wished to install and when I pressed Install things went along smoothly until I hit the app SecSafetyAssurance.apk where it freezes. This is a bump that I've run into at least 5 times already. I changed certain options I wanted to install and eventually made it past this and I am prompted to reboot. Now when I do this to my dismay I just receive a black screen. Upon pulling out the battery and attempting to reboot I still receive a black screen. when I boot back into the Recovery and attempt to reboot the system from within TWRP it warns me saying No OS Installed Are you sure you want to reboot. Im at a loss of what to do. I have read about other members suggesting to use ODIN but I am very confused about how to access Download Mode in order to flash a stock rom from SamMobile.com. I could use a few tips or maybe a few options that I'm left with in order to obtain the operation of my phone again. I would like to get my phone back and Im sure some users can relate to how Im feeling so any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much in advanced!

Well first thing is get the latest stock firmware for your variant from my sign and get odin 3.07
For download mode power off phone unplug,, press volume down home and power all together till something pops up and release then press volume up and connect to pc
Open odin click pda and select that firmware u downloaded start the process
For more info check my sign help thread link it has more options on the same

Flashing through odin is one option.... some users have reported that there were some hiccups when installing omega 14 because of the aroma script.....try a different rom...there are many others to choose from....or you could flash stock via odin as said on the earlier comment good luck

Feedback
Today I attempted to use ODIN to flash now I am still currently attempting this. When I press the volume down key, power, and home button it takes me to the custom recovery TWRP instead of download mode. The phone did this when I first purchased it. When I still had what appeared to be the stock rom it would always take me to the recovery. When I would use the volume up instead of down it would take me to the factory test mode now mind you this happened when the OS was still installed. When i try that combination now i just receive a blank black screen. Are there any other ways to boot into download mode?

Note 4 diarrhea

Hi, I'm kinda lost ma mind right now.
Here's the story, my friend has note 4 SM-N910F Qualcomm , suddenly it began restarting with abnormal battery dropping.
I began repairing by trying to perform factory reset, to enter into a boot loop (without a root till the moment). Then I charged it fully which made it work.
I tried to root then install CM to replace stock rom (to repair any system issues), which was quite difficult, as I tried to install CM 12.1, it keeps fail due to incompatibility (the CM rom for trltexx and mine trlte as the root keeps shows me)
BTW the root I used was ( openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-trltexx.img.tar ) *yea it confusing*
Finally I downloaded official stock 5.1.1 , and installed it, it finished well and booted also quite well, as language selection screen appeared, same original issue reappeared again ( *keeps rolling in boot loop* )
Now I'm worrying about hardware malfunctioning.
:silly::silly::silly::silly::silly::silly::silly::silly:

I accidentally posted in Android development. so sorry

I've seen this issue on my friend's tab s. The screen would freeze then it would reboot. This got worse as the battery power doped to the point that swiping to unlock would cause a reboot. The problem turned out to be the battery. It may be worth buying a new battery for very little money to see if this fixes it.

I'm in a doubt about the battery, I think it's slightly swollen.
I guess I'll give it a try.

Install Custom recovery thro' ODIN (philz_touch)
Flash Nameless Kernel v 6 thro custom recovery.
And I think you are done.

If you tried factory reset and flashed a fresh stock rom and its still happening, the battery is the problem and also check if there is a micro sd inserted. If so, remove the card and check.
No custom rom or kernal will be better since they come with thier own bugs and not as stable as official firmware period!

G900F - Can't use the screen after installing a custom rom.

Hey guys,
the phone:
Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900F
Last official firmware:
G900FXXU1POJ2 (VD2) 5.0 Germany
I flashed TWRP via Odin
Then SuperSU via ODIN
Then installed a custom recovery.
After full install and reboot it hangs on the first screen and I cannot touch it. It won't do anything. Reboots, deleting cache won't help.
Do you know what I did wrong or why I can't use my phone anymore?

I installed a freshly new official stock rom, it'll boot but won't go any further and bootloops.
Then I tried a CM - ROM and it's the same with another rom. The touchscreen doesn't work. But the touch works on TWRP. That's really weird.
It freezes, the LED is always on and the softbuttons too.

ask you if you have this problem before root
lol twrp is costume recovery and just flash twrp and applied the supersu.zip and its done phone rooted
but if you have problem after touch think
1- you don't flash the true cm ( klte is for 900F )
2- your touch panel is damaged
3- for your original stock rom ( lag ) ty to wipe data and cache ( attention you will lose your data with )

- I was on official vodafone germany firmware.
- Phone told me to get the last update
- Phone installed last update
- After installation phone was bootloopin
- I did hard reset
- Phone booted up until it said, that it is installing a few applications (you know what I mean)
- While installing progress of that it restarted and installed and restarted and so on..
So I decided to get a custom rom.
- I flashed TWRP for KFTL (I have SM-G900F) via ODIN.
- Everything works fine.
- I flashed Chainfires SuperSU via ODIN.
- Everything works fine.
- I installed a custom ROM (eg: The Galaxy Project)
- It booted and then freezes.
So after that I was afraid and flashed a stock rom via Odin but it was the same with the official OTA-update from Samsung. Reboots while installing first apps.
Then I tried with CM but it freezes too. I am sure it has nothing to do with the screen.
On official (stock) ROMs it reboots while installing first apps.
On custom ROMs it freezes. It won't go any further. It must be something else. Any ideas?
BTW: I have another SM-G900F and it works flawlessly. I know that I am doing.

what y mean freeze the phone or just touch ( but bottom work like vol )
if only touch think is damaged

Hm. If you boot up your phone for the first time or after hard reset or after an update it boots up and then there comes the very first message that android is preparing the apps for the first start, right? On official firmware it bootloops when that message comes.
On CyanogenMod it boots until this Screen:
And then it freezes.
I can't believe that it has to be the touch panel, because everything works fine in TWRP. The phone won't let me go any further than the first Screen. And the touch can't be damaged. Before I did the official Samsung update everything works fine.

samsung gt-s7390 problem

hi everyone
for start days ago my phone reboot sometimes alone and when it turn one it work normaly
but to day it turn of and it didn't start . it doesn't stop rebooting
(the hard reset doen't work)
so i took a look in forums they said that's a bootloop prob
i download the official firmware of my phone samsung gt-s7390 and install it with odin with out prob
but when it donne the phone reboot and i got a msg wrot in italy said " crittografia non eseguita " * translate in ENG - performed encryption - *
and a botton when you tap phone reboot ...... the msg again etc....
plz help
what is this prob and where it come from ( the coz )
thx alot

Same here. I'm trying to factory reset it but it won't let me, somehow. Next I think I need to try a custom ROM. But it's actually really hard to find a root for it via ODIN, since the device won't keep on for long enough to perform a root via softwares.

Ummm that's odd.
Same thing happened to me while ago, solved it by flashing the stock firmware.
Did u check the build version of your phone? It has to match the OS
If you stillhave access to download mode then try flashing a custom recovery and clearing Dalvik Cache, if that doesn't work then try flashing one of the cm11 roms

All i know... If you can get the only ROM i Ever found for gt-s7390 and Flash IT in Recovery (if you can) or try to use Odin... BUT DON'T FORGET TO WIPE ALL: DATA, CACHE, DALVIK AND SYSTEM PARTITIONS... I am using cm11 ( best i could find ) and TWRP (team Win Recovery project) or Just Factory reset? Idk i haven't got into a Situationeel like that...
Cheers and good luck :fingers-crossed:
