So a while back I flashed a pre-rooted firmware from this thread. Everything was working flawlessly until I had to go back to a stock rom for some time. Then I flashed the pre-rooted one again only to find out that whenever I update or uninstall apps my phone just restarts. I haven't done any factory resets in between flashing the roms (I probably should have), so that might be the problem but I just want to make sure. One thing to add is that I can normally update/uninstall apps on the stock rom.
I can provide additional info if needed. Thanks for any kind of help.
Format it will be fixed
Factory reset your phone and the problem will be fixed

I tried to flash a rom and it didn't go so well due to the fact it was for Verizon S4 only and I missed that,
anyway I decided to go back to my recovered stock TW rooted Rom and everything was fine until... my WiFi stopped working, just wouldnt turn on then was asking me to reboot my device?
after a bit of searching I found out to just revert back to official stock firmware.. BUT
for some strange reason and for the first time ever, when I reflash the official stock firmware it stays as custom and is all buggy and crashes a lot. could this be because I am flashing an official stock that is less updated than my rooted TW?
someone help me cause it's really starting to aggravate me!
thanks!
When you flash the stock, do a factory reset. Any if it does not work, repeat the procedure (reset/flash/reset). But make sure you have the right stock (I suggest to take it from sammobile). I heard of up to 7 tries before success...
good luck
@JacksonPa93:
Can you check if you actually have this problem (WLAN/Bluetooth doesn't work and random crashes with reboots):

fixed!
I think I've solved it by what was mentioned about factory reset>flash stock
Took me 5 times to eventually get it working..
thanks guys
What I want to do is install a stock non rooted rom, kernel, and recovery. I am not sure how to change recovery to stock either is it like flashing a rom? Please give me some links for these I can't seem to find them, besides the stock kernel I found that.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------The reason I want the above is bellow, if it matters.-----------------------------------------------------
My phone is about 95% broken.
Before, every rom/kernel combination would randomly restart, it was my phone it self I believe.
I went to a stock rooted rom, but then it restarted, and my lock screen worked, yet my home screen was black all i could do was slide my status bar down.
After that i restarted my self and then it got stock forever on the screen where it says Samsung galaxy s4.
The 5% working part is my recovery, for the most part.
I keep having to do a full wipe, not just system wipe otherwise it says error unable to mount preload or i/o or a few other things, I have to system wipe before every rom attempt.
I tried several popular roms such as sacs and triforce and a few other roms and all the kernels also.
The phone will turn on, work for a little normally, then crash again and go into the infinite loading screen where is simply says galaxy s4.
This phone is only 3 months old, so I want to take it back to sprint being completely stock so they give me a new phone.
I need links to files I need, and if i am forgetting to change anything back to stock please let me know. Thank you.
I replied to you in the newbie thread, but to return to complete stock download the latest firmware from here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and install it with odin. Do a factory reset before and after install to make sure you have cleared out what ever is causing your problems. After this process you will be completely stock and unrooted. If you are still having problems after this it is probably hardware related.
hey guys, today i bought a used NOTE 4 for my mother, and when i checked the version it was 6.0.1...so i wiped everything and restarted the phone to get the best performance....but the phone lags and freezes a lot, especially in the camera, and it keep restarting all the time....what should i do? should i try to flash another FW through ODIN?
You mean you used the Factory reset option? That's not a full wipe, just resetting stuffs. And yes, you know the answer, wipe everything from a custom recovery, then flash stock MM ROM (always latest) via Odin. Earlier versions did have a reboot problem though, and lags here and there, but that's expected, but the last release, PE1, has got rid of all those problems, its a very good release already, and I am sure upcoming releases will only make it better. There are no major bugs at all, I don't even find any minor bugs except the need for a separate app to clear default apps selection.
Best of luck.

the phone is stock, it has the stock recovery, and i have the PE1 version, the exact name is "MMB29M.N910FXXU1DPE1"...and still got a lot of lag, freeze and rebooting.....is there another version?
EDIT: ok, so i flashed another MM through odin ( first time it gave me a fail) and then done a factory reset, now it's so much better, maybe not as smooth as my S6 but really fast and smooth enough...thanks for the help
EDIT: today the phone started to shutdown completly....not reboot....and you need to press the power button 10 seconds to reboot it or turn it on...is there any advice?

Just download and install Wake Lock from Google Play Store. I had the same problem and more. Once I installed Wake Lock (on a fresh install from Android 5 up to all the 6.0..1 builds) phone doesn't shut off or freeze. Most importantly no more Boot Loops..
whenever i came to a custom rom and suddenly when i want to go back to stock firmware, (after i flash stock firmware via ODIN) when the boot is done ofcourse we undergo to SETUP like brandnew right? but in my case it is black screen and repeating System UI force close,, what do you think the problem? this start happen when i try to use Hades rom, and followed the flashing the updated MODEMS for my variant. Please Help me , thanks in advanced!
Hello there,
Today I flashed TWRP 3.0.2-1 using Odin 3.10.7 on my sisters Galaxy A5 2016 (sm-a510f). After that, I installed SuperSU 2.78 using TWRP.
Since that, the WiFi does not turn on. When you press the button to turn it on, it shows the "loading circle", and seems to do nothing. The circle stays forever.
Other than that, the phone appears to work fine. It did never report any error messages.
I already tried wiping cache, dalvik and data. I also made a factory reset using the option in the settings.
Later I found a newer version of TWRP (3.1.1-0) by Zonik . Flashing this did not fix the problem.
Do you have any ideas on what I could do to make it work again?
Edit:
In the meantime, I flashed a custom rom. Everything appears to work fine at the moment.
I didn't want to do that initially, so the phone could get the stock updates without me doing anything.
But still I am interested, what steps should I have done, to keep stock? And where might I be able to download the stock rom?
You should have flashed a later version of SuperSU.
You can use Samsung Smart Switch to restore factory settings.
Alternatively you can always find the latest firmwares on updato.com
Oh, I have just seen that I forgot to reply to that. I'm sorry.
@ashyx Thank you, I'm going to do that the next time. I was following a manual someone wrote on the Internet. I should have been smart enough not to trust a manual that's been lying around for some time.
@Vinhixus I tried that. Samsung Smart Switch did not like to do that (Don't ask me why, it said the device is not supported for factory reset).
Finally I "fixed" the wifi-bug by installing a custom rom wich i did not want to do in the first place because I did not want to change the OS on the device, just the bloatware samsung puts on their device.
Not much of a fix, more like a dirty hack to me
Thank you for your support
Actually you needed to flash correct modem. The custom ROM fixes it because modem was compatible for it. For the stock one you need modem that matches it i guess.
