Download the official rom, start your phone in recovery mode by pressing power home and volume up your phone must be rooted for this, then in recovery mode clear user data, cache and dev cache, then select install zip from sd go to your rom and install it restart the phone and you are ready to go

You must also format system in mounts and storage to make it work,
So wipe data, clear cache and dalvik cache, format system and flash the miui rom TWICE IN A ROW (really, not kidding). Let it boot and than reboot again

You should wipe cache, dalvik cache, wipe data/factory format, and in mount and storage format system. Then flash Miui twice in a row, reboot, boot up and reboot again. That should do it. Miui has different system than Samsung

Yes, do the above steps and miui will get installed. Flash miui twice in a row without rebooting!

Do you have a working backup in recovery? Try to restore that, if not it`s best to flash back to stock rom for now. You can always root it and try again. For the binary count you should buy a jig to reset the counter.
Try to read about rooting and always enable usb-debugging when flashing custom roms/kernels
Look in Intratech`s thread for your stock rom, he almost has them all
Good luck

Nexus 7 Root Problem

Im having a bit of a funny one with the Nex, a few days ago I unlocked bootloader, rooted and left it, but as we all know the temptation to try a custom ROM niggles away at the back of your mind and eventually I gave in and installed smoothRom 4.3.
However apps cannot gain root access anymore, the SuperSu popup doesnt, well popup any more...
I have booted into recovery mode and the bootloader is still unlocked,
any advice anyone?

Have you tried removing SuperSu, Wipe Cache/Dalvik
Reboot
Find the LATEST SuperSU
Reboot Recovery
Flash
Reboot.
Try that let me know how you go

Assuming you remove it the normal way you would remove any other app? If so, when I hold to drag to uninstall it just shows app info, could this be because SuperSU is built into the ROM itself?

Yeah my bad.
Reboot Recovery
Un-install, Wipe Cache/Dalvik
Reboot (Into actual System)
Reboot (Recovery)
Download new SuperSU (From link I've provided)
Flash it in recovery
Wipe Cache/Dalvik
Reboot
Test
Enjoy

What exactly am I uninstalling at this stage?

Super SU?

Right, I think I've worked out where and when my device is unrooting itself.
> I went back to stock unrooted with a locked bootloader, factory settings on everything.
> Then unlocked, and rooted, checked and confirmed to be rooted with rootchecker basic application.
> Then installed Smoothrom 4.3 again, did the whole cache wipe etc, booted first time, no problems.
> Checked rootchecker basic again, AT THIS STAGE STILL ROOTED.
> Rebooted nexus, checked again, and it lost its root.
Ideas are very welcome, im pulling my hair out

I had the same problem today when i install smoothrom. What i discover is that when i go back to cwm, and try to reflash, i cannot even find my sdcard. When i choose "choose zip from sdcard", i can't see my sdcard. After some fumbling, i realised it's renamed as 0. Dunno why this happened, but anyway, i went in there, found the zip file, reflash, then everything is ok. Maybe you can try check. Hope this helps.

This worked for me thanks! :good:
I was having the same issue after flashing SmoothRom 4.3 with successful root. I didn't even realise I lost root privileges until I opened Titanium backup recently. All of the Following steps may not be necessary and are only precautionary as I was also updating to SmoothRom 4.4.
Anyway;
Remove SuperSU updates and clear the data for superSu (As mentioned previously, SuperSu is built in to SmoothRom and Broken Root so can't Uninstall with TiBackup)
Reboot Into Recovery
Wipe Cache/Dalvik
Flashed SmoothRom zip from sdcard
Flash SuperSu latest zip from sd card
Reboot (with patience...)
*Uncheck Respect CM Root Setting in SuperSu
Enjoy!

i9505 stuck on splash logo after flash/reboot

Hey guys im having troubles with my s4 ive flashed the google edition rom to my device with twrp. the rom works fine after i flash on first boot but when i try to power off the phone and turn it back on it freezes on the splash logo. i can get the phone to boot again if i wipe the dev cache in twrp but as soon as i power off the phone and reboot it freezes on the screen again.
Where should i go from here? i have downloaded the official firmware and have it ready to go.
Should i run triangle app to reset my flash counter and then flash official stock rom with odin?

If you format cache, dalvik cache, system and data then you should be fine to just flash the GE Rom mate

[Q] SGH-I337m soft bricked with faulty usb

A few days ago my USB port on my Telus SGH-I337m gave out, leaving me with no data connectivity and extremely limited charging capabilities.
I rooted the phone using ODIN and TWRP when I originally got it last summer, but i forgot all about that and brought it over to best buy for an exchange. We did a factory reset before the guy noticed it was rooted and told me to un root and come back. However, after the factory reset, I'm now stuck on the samsung galaxy s4 splash logo, but I do still have access to recovery booting. I've tried downloading stock and custom roms and flashing those to no avail. I switched my recovery manager from TWRP 2.5.0.0 to CWM 6.0.4.4, but still nothing. ODIN flashing is impossible because the USB port isn't working. Any suggestions?

Are you using super SU? There's an unroot option in it

You said you flashed cwm over twrp, if you did so you must be able to flash a rom too.
The bright side, if it's not booting you could take it to a best buy and they couldn't tell it's rooted
Edit, when you boot into recovery is it the stock recovery now, or cwm?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app

Any custom roms I've tried to flash have still left me stuck at the splash logo. Any chance you could point me to a stock ROM download? None of the stock roms i've found will install. And since it does still boot into recovery mode the guys at bestbuy will still know i have it rooted though right? worst case i might just drain the battery and bring it in since it takes about 20 mins to charge 1%.
edit: it recovery boots into CWM 6.0.4.4 only, hangs on normal startup with any rom

If it boots into a custom recovery, twrp or cwm, yes they're going to know you modified the device. But you're not going to be able to get rid of that without Odin.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app

If I'm able to fix the boot error, would I be able to use mobile odin or super SU to unroot it?
Either way any other suggestions for getting past the splash screen?
What I've tried exactly is:
-boot into CWM recovery
-wipe data/factory reset
-wipe cache partition
-wipe dalvik cache
-install ROM from zip
-reboot
custom ROMS install ok but give me the boot error
stock roms don't install at all
And thanks for the help i do appreciate it

I'm not sure what to tell you. First, you're flashing the custom roms correctly and I'm not sure why they're not booting. I don't know what stock rom you're trying to flash.
Having the custom recovery is going to kill you at best buy. They'll try to boot into recovery to do a factory reset and they'll see you modified the device.
I don't know if mobile Odin works on the s4, I don't think so, but you'd have to boot into something first. And that's a problem right now.

I managed to get past the splash logo. Turn out i needed to format all the partitions as well as clear them before installing a rom.
The stock roms i was (mistakenly) trying were the odin tar.md5 files. But now I've got mobile odin running and I found a couple videos with mobile odin and the gs4 so im going to give it a shot. The procedure recommends >50% battery though so I'm going to have to let it charge overnight.
We'll see if it works in the morning

Reflash lastest 4.4.2 (Colombia) Firmware from Sammobile, Tick "NAND Erase All", "Re-partition" & "Phone EFS Clear", also put the unziped attached file on the PIT section.
This will completely wipe your NAND, this means a complete Full wipe of the whole phone, I also have a i337M from Telus & deleted all the remains of previus modifications that normal recoveries can't wipe. thus reformatting Boot, Cache, System, EFS & all other partitions to their correct state.
Make sure your Odin window looks as the attached image.
It will stuck at samsung logo after flashing, boot to recovery & perform a factory reset, and you are good to go.
King regards.

Soft Brick need access to shell.

Been doing my own searches for the passed few days to find a way. I need my phone now so I'm going to ask in my own thread. Sorry if my search foo is failing me.
I rooted my note 3 (no custom rom) with CFfire one touch and it worked great. I then wanted to try pimp my rom and all its features. Pimp my rom had a boot animation changer and I tried it ...now my phone wont boot passed the tmobile login.
Some research told me to edit build.prop and reset it or something but I need access to shell.

That was a great thread and I thought I made a break through ...but my phone is not recognized in device manager so I can't install the custom naked drivers. So now I'm stuck where I need to get shell access but I'm lost.

1. You can't access to shell coz your device don't boot.
2. That thread is for one Samsung Galaxy S3. Build.prop isn't the same for your device. Better don't play with it.
3. Is your device a SM-N900T? For be sure...

The solution is easy.
1. Put your phone in DOWNLOAD MODE.
2. You will have to download and unzip STOCK ROM. Reflash it through ODIN then. The latest for your model is: HERE

Take the battery out for a few minutes then try to boot up again with the battery back in. If that doesn't work I'm afraid you have to do a factory reset, then flash the ROM. Next time make sure you do a nandroid backup before you try anything like this.

Through the custom recovery tool I can see my files. Is there a way I can get them? Most important my Chrome bookmarks... I didn't sync with the cloud.

The short answer is yes. Now here's what I want you to do:
1. In your custom recovery make a backup of all your files
2. Reboot into recovery (I always do a reboot after I do a backup)
3. Do a factory reset/wipe data
4. Flash the ROM that you wanted on your phone.
5. Reboot the phone normally which it should just go straight to the welcome screen
6. You will have to flash the recovery again via odin or some app on your phone.
7. reboot into recovery and do an advanced restore via:
A.CWM - (I don't use this so if someone knows please correct me) go to backup and restore
B. Go to advanced restore
C. Pick your backup file
D. Pick Data ONLY
E. Restore Data and reboot normally
a. TWRP - Reboot into recovery
b. Choose restore
c. Choose file
d. Choose "date" only and restore and reboot.
This should give you back your data on a clean ROM. Let me know if it works for you.
