Hi XDAers, am new to sharing, and wanted to start with this thread as it might be helpful for many people
Am not responsible if you bricked your phone, so don't blame me!
Lets start with the guide:
What u need:
1- Samsung drivers Here
2- Odin flasher Here
3- Rom files which u will find Here
4- (Optional) To do a full clean install or to root your rom u will need Philz kernel
Installation Steps:
1-Install the previously downloaded samsung drivers on your PC
2-Start your phone in download mode (while the phone is off press and hold PWR button + Vol dwn + Home)
3-Start Odin (above link)
4-Click on the PDA Btn and select the rom file you downloaded (.tar file)
5-Connect your phone (don't use any usb hub or whatever,etc.) so that the phone is connected directly to the PC
6-Wait until you see the upper left box in odin turns yellow
7-Click on start and don't touch anything until its all done
Congratulations! now u have a stock rom installed on your phone
To have a Full clean install (u have to do this first) :
1- Go to Philz kernel and download the one that corresponds to your current firmware build code
(you can know your current rom code by going to settings, about device, the 5 letters after i9100 in Build number are your firmware code)
2- Place the zip you downloaded on your external sd card
3- Start the device in recovery mode (while the phone is off press and hold PWR + HOME + VOL UP)
4- Scroll to install update from external storage using the volume keys and power btn for selection
5- Go to the kernel you downloaded and install it.
6-Turn off ur phone and start again in recovery mode, it will start the newly installed recovery
7- Now go to mounts and storage and format (system,preload,data,cache), Go back to main menu, Select advanced and wipe Dalvik cache
Now ur phone is fully cleaned and ready for Installation !!
For rooting after installation, Repeat the previous steps until step 5
:highfive:
Credits :
Thanks to Sammobile.com/ for the ROMs
Thanks to Phil3759 for his great work
Press Thanks if I helped :good:
Note: works only on GT-i8190
Software needed:
Odin v 3.07 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1168421&d=1341114315 )
Cwm touch recovery file ( http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390334956548391158 )
Note: please use only the link given above for Cwm touch recovery file
DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK
How to:
1) open Odin in your computer
2) select PDA and
3) check if only auto reboot and F.reset time checkboxes are selected
4) put your phone on download mode (shut down the phone then press volume down key + power key + home key)
5) a warning will appear then press volume up key
6) connect your phone to your computer
7) in the message box it will show added (on Odin)
8) click start
9) then wait till it shows pass
10) unplug your device
11) install rom manager by clockworkmod (optional)
You are finished
I don't think it is possible to root your phone without first install any cwm recovery
This have been possible ever since I made the Odin file.... And you don't need root to use Odin.

hey guys, i hope someone can help me with this problem.
Problem:
1. flashed cobra ROM coming from Crash (4.3). Wiped EVERYTHING as instructed & reboot.
2. phone stuck in bootloop for 20 mins ( Samsung logo). So i tried to enter recovery to flash it again.
3. failing to enter recovery CWM 6.0.4.4 by press keys (Power+Vol UP)
>> phone goes blank for a second & then comes back to S4 logo & finally bootloops on Samaung logo
Do I have to flash everything from scratch?
( Odin >> Pit >> Factory image >> Custom recovery )

Odin flash official stock rom but don't flash any PIT files.
The PIT file is the partition information tables and if there
was anything wrong with that file the phone would be dead.
It would be a hard brick and have a blank black screen.

downloading the official firmware & will flash the stock ROM
Hope everything goes back to normal.
>> how can i be sure that the PIT isn't already corrupted?
>> why isn't the phone booting into CWM recovery ?
Are you sure that you are holding the Vol up key + home key long enough. For me i have to hold all 3 until i get the i9500 screen then hold vol up and home until i get the recovery load up.

ok i flashed the stock firmware & am able to boot phone on stock 4.3
PROBLEM:
1. go to Odin
2. flash CWM 6.0.4.4 >> flash successful>>PASS>>RESET
>>The phone STILL refuses to boot into recovery.
when i hold all the 3 buttons (Power+Vol UP+Home), the phone just keeps blinking on the Galaxy S4 Logo.
If I leave the buttons, it does a normal boot.
Q. Is there another method to go into recovery?
Am I missing something Here??
Try a different Odin version. Try 1.85 and make sure auto-reboot is not selected.
FINALLY!!

I re-did the entire procedure & it works.
Followed tutorial on Cobra ROMs page by S.a.M.e.R_d
1. Re-flash pit file>>adonis.pit
2. flash factory firmware>>I9500XXUEMJ9_I9500ODDEMJ5_INU
3. let it boot
4. flash custom recovery through Odin >> GT-I9500-CWM-6.0.4.5
5. Press & hold (Power+vol UP+ home)>> Enter recovery
The procedure was similar to what i had done earlier, except for flashing the pit file again.
Did the Trick.

Hi, I flashed this monday the leak of Lollipop for Samsung Galaxy S4 (9500) and after I followed all the steps one by one I'm the only one in earth that isn't able to start the phone in the recovery mode. For this reason I can't flash gapps. I am not able to downgrade even because for the KNOX.
Someone has the same problem? Can anyone figured out how to enter in recovery mode?
P.D: I have attempted to do it with the buttons (vol down + pow + home) and with adb and the usb connected to the phone. Anyone was the solution.

after flashing Rom with Odin you have to flash openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-klte.tar
Installing Recovery and rooting steps :
1- download twrp from here
2- go to flash mode
3- run Odin load file as AP then click start
4- go to recovery by powering off your device and hold volume up + home + power button
5- when you want to reboot to system Twrp will ask you to install SuperSU (rooting your device)
6- swipe to confirm
More info here

I did all of this, still can't to initiate in recovery mode.
i had the same problem, try downloading philz (philz_touch_6.48.4-i9500) or twrp recovery (openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-i9500) and install via odin (AP box)
I didn't try the above i just installed the rom again, doing this:
- only the AP file
- uncheck "auto reboot"
- After the process finishes dont reboot the phone to tw, just go to the recovery mode and the wipe cache/data
- Install philz or twrp via odin

So, flash the ROM again with nothing more than the AP box fullfiled and then, when it finishes hold (vol up + power + home). Wipe cache, restart and flash custom recovery.
Am I right?

It can not, because in the first flash has deleted the modem, bootloader, csc and others, so if flashing only AP will not operate the phone, only the PDA.
And masicen these questions have to do in the same thread firmware also behold the solution.
Flashes the firmware again, to start turn it off and go into Recovery by: Volume Up + Home + Power in this order and holding down until you see the Samsung logo there S4 loose and enter the stock recovery, do wipes and restart it, then download Philz Touch in its latest version and flash it with Odin and restart turn it off and try to enter the recovery now.-

Try flash this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...recovery-twrp-2-8-6-0-touch-recovery-t3107535 , TWRP is much better than CWM and more compatible with new roms AND use ODIN 3.07 Link if u cant find : https://forum.cyanmod.pl/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=2819
How to install :
1) Install whatever drivers make you happy and make your device connect (i would suggest samsung ones).
2) Reboot your device in download mode you can use adb reboot download or the hardware key combo for your device.
3) Load up Odin and uncheck auto-reboot.
4) Click PDA and select the TWRP tar you downloaded.
5) Connect your device in download mode.
6) Click start.
7) When its finished disconnect your device, pull the battery out.
8) Reinsert the battery and use the hardware keys for your device to power directly into recovery mode (this will bypass install-recovery.sh if you are stock).
9) Enjoy having a custom recovery.
happens with me too
Maybe Because of the bootloader is locked on our devices
