[Q] Beginner mess up. not sure what to do next

hello, so, ive had the s4 (att) for a while and i have a small problem, i rooted it (and confirmed the root with rootchecker) and at some point decided to try to install a custom mod on it. issue is i am on MF3 and read of all the dangers and kinda stopped. but i stopped after attempting to get CWM on the phone using rom manager (from teh google play store) now when all this happened it was months ago and i had just started on android exploits and the dangers scared me off, i used a jailbroken and unlocked iphone before.
needless to say currently i want to get cyanogenmod on the phone. its rooted, but im not sure what to do next. ive been reading materials for about 2 days now. threads keep contradicting eachother some say use loki and odin others say you cant because its gonna brick mf3.
looking for a quick answer on what exactly i need to get a custom rom installed. the guides here are great but again most say mf3 will be bricked while others say otherwise.
also currently the phone randomly displays a "custom" boot screen right after bootup. sometime it does sometime it doesnt. im guessing from teh CWM. but not sure.
help.

I read this and i'm not sure in what stage you are? What firmware you are on ( asume stock rooted MF3). Did you phone bootup all the way or not? All i can help is just start fresh from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2502003 if you on MF3. If you not on MDL just go to sammobile find firmware and flash with odin.
After you back to stock firmware root you phone (look for correct metod on firmware you have) install SafeStrip for MF3 or CMW for MDL ( do not install CMW if you on MF3) SafeStrip post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448925 and more info here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2428254.

well the short version is this
bought phone (it auto updated to mf3)
rooted phone while on mf3
installed rom manager off the play store, which installed CWM.
i uninstalled rom manager but im more than sure that CWM stayed.
currently i want to start over, hopefully flash the phone back to stock and re-root it and try again using a better method (like safestrap)
so all i have to do is get odin + mf3 pda/csc/phone/modem files and flash the phone right? then its gonna be back to stock rom. so i will have to reroot it and try again...
will this also reset the flash counter?

So from what I read, you're not in a great position. MF3 CANNOT have a custom recovery, sure you can install one like you did but it won't work. That being said what you mentioned should work, flashing MF3 via ODIN. After that, root it and install SafeStrap, it's the only option for MF3 (currently no options for the latest firmware AFAIK).
Link to Odin thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2504311
read the entirety of it, it's only 5 pages long.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314494
Read post 2 thoroughly, it has lots of good information. IGNORE THE FIRST POST, it doesn't apply to your phone
Lastly if you don't want the phone to update itself, what I did was install Titanium backup and froze the following apps:
1. AT&T Software update Vxx_x_xxxx_x_x
2. FWUpgrade x.x.x
3. LocalFOTA vx_xxxx_x_x
as for the flash counter, I'm not sure. I hope this helps a little.

What i would suggest is to odin bak to UCUAMDL and then use casual to root back.
Then you will have TWRP recovery and can flash any rom (loki'd) , Also keep in mind never do a data format using twrp.

The root method does work. I'm not sure about the recovery part though.
**edit**
I went to this website and downloaded TWRP version 2.8.5.0 and it works. As for the functionality, i'm not sure. I tried doing the backup and it was working but then the screen shut off but the back and home buttons were still lit up and the screen would not turn back on with the power button so i just pulled the battery. Also of note, there are two strips of bright blue on either side of the main UI. There was an error that said the UI could not load properly, but like i said, it was starting to backup. I'm more of a CWM kind of person so i am going to try the T-Mobile version of that and see what happens. http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/trltetmo/openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-trltetmo.img.tar
Good luck.
**edit2**
I turned off the screen timeout feature and the backup went fine. I'm going to test to see if I can restore from that backup tonight.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot. Just to make sure I'm not misunderstanding, this recovery is what will grant me root, correct? It's my first time messing with CWM so I'm a bit worried.

Whoa wait. First you need to follow the root method by flashing the sc-01g recovery. Boot the phone and install/update busy box and SuperSU. Then you can reflash to twrp or cwm.

Odin-compatible G900AUCU4BOF2 stock rom?

Hi, I'm stupid and bricked my phone.
I had rooted almost immediately after getting my phone, AT&T SM-G900A, and had no problems.
Used FlashFire to apply the 5.0 pre-rooted stock rom (OC4), and had no problems.
Decided today to use SuperSU's "Full Unroot" function, rebooted, and now I can't get past the AT&T logo on boot. And apparently even after that the phone is still rooted.
Tried the G900AUCU3BOC4-OneClick.exe Odin flasher, but it fails and I get "sw rev check fail [aboot]: fused 4 > binary 3" which from what I understand means I am trying to install a rom version that is older than the one I currently have.
Looked on the internet to see if there is any Odin-compatible tar.md5 file for the newer versions, hoping one of those would let me update. However, I can only find .zip files made by muniz_ri. Tried copying those to my microSD card and install through recovery, but it fails with "invalid header". It looks like those zip files only work with FlashFire, which I can't even get to anymore because I can't boot.
Is there a floating copy of one of the newer stock roms (can be unrooted, I don't care) that I can flash with Odin? Or is there another secret I am missing? I have been through dozens of threads here on the forums and they all seem to have a solution that just give me any results.
Thanks for any help!

Completely Wipe phone for installing new lollipop update.

Well... I want to completely wipe my phone make it a clean slate and then install this new officially released lollipop update.
Please can you good people inform me, what is the procedure to do the same step-by-step.
PS: I guess I have to use the Philz and odin.. but can anybody tellme complete procedure. I wana completely delete cache, partitions etc etc.. that is needed.
Also, if I use this method how to upload to the phone the actual Official OS? I know it can be downloaded via sammobile but is it possible to DL from Kies and upload via odin ?
UPDATE: Well, can you please tellme how can I erase cache/dalvik cache/partition from my current stock recovery (using Lollipop 5.1.1)

Yes, download an official firmware from Samsungupdates.com or sammobile, flash it through odin and then boot into recovery and clear data and format system.

Haha yeah I do have a lot of experience with that since I downloaded many firmwares and also roms. As for that virus thing It is just an Ad, don't worry about it I have downloaded firmwares from Samsunhupdates many times. If you don't like it Go ahead with Sam mobile. Once you download the firmware things will be very simple. But remember download the firmware for the country that you are in, for an example if you are in the middle east download XSG ...etc Just download an app called Samsung info From playstore and it will tell you what your CSC code is (country code For firmware) okay. Once you download the firmware tell me, so that I can guide you step by step.

Here is a step by step guide to flash a stock firmware using odin
http://www.droidviews.com/install-stock-firmware-on-samsung-galaxy-devices-using-odin/
Once you flash the firmware, go ahead and boot into recovery, it should take you to the original recovery, not philz or cwm, the original recovery. Once you open it, go ahead and format And clear Your data along side the cache.
Ps: you will lose EVERYTHING that is on Your phone, but that's what you want right?
Goodluck!

Right from the start I just want to know how to install philz (Some say on SD card and some some other assorted ways) AND, after deleting cache/delvik/partition.... what command to give in order to flash through odin (I know how 2 use Odin).
Its simple - But then instead of answering this you are here to insult me... well, guess too much free time OR angry with your family & GF !?

Yes tht is my phone - Let me browse around, search videos on how to install & use this and revert back with any questions I may be having.
PS: The official Samsung Lollipop OS tht I want can only be downloaded via sammobile? Is It guaranteed to be 1-by-1 image of the original source...

You can just use Odin to flash the stock firmware from sammobile.com. Yes, it is original and untouched.

Mate, my phone is facing extreme lags and slowdowns after upgrading to Lollipop via kies.
Now this thing have happened in my old Note 1 with JB as well....
All-in-All, till I don't delete cache, dalvik and partition and reflash the firmware this problem aint gona solve 100% and hence want to use anything like TWRP etc.. to wipe tht first, but I had completely forgotten how I had done last time. BTW, after deleting the said phone cache etc.. I can directly rebot my phone go to odin and flash?
PS: I am still looking how 2 install twrp and under which menu I can find all those options - Gimme sum time to figure this out.

In some instances, stock recovery will go a better job of wiping the phone.

You realise you are in the wrong forums... right? The Neo has it's own forums at THIS Address so you should be asking your questions there. Advice in the Galaxy Note 3 forums may not work and may even brick your phone.

yes, quite afew times

will this work for Virgin mobile as well? I haven 't had a need yet...but knowing meeee...eventually.

Worked for my VM version of the phone. I think the phone sets itself from the network(Sprint, Boost, Virgin) when you activate it.

Very well ,Confirmed Works on boost mobile only method. helps me get off or bypass screen massage Blocked by FRP ,flashed with Odin thanks

Thank you very much! Also for the confirmation it works..... (i did hit the thanks button)
Downloading now,....... Just got this device due to a insurance claim so this is a completelt new phone to me and I really want to either start or add to one specific form till we get a complete spot on the fourms.... Any way my ideal or a good ideal for us is to add everthing that is confirmed working as on today and add it to one fourm and reserve like 10 entrys for specific problems and the solutions. Or just in a easy format so everything is not so confusing till we get our device a Fourm started instead of a thread thats confusing and hard to follow.... Anyone with me???? Its a new device and we need development so bad.. im stuck in a bootloop as of now and cant find the info to help me and its so aggervating.... someone will have to maintain it of course

I have followed all steps. I am using the J727p for boost. It turned on loaded up normally for me then when I restarted the phone it is now stuck in a boot load it gets to the Samsung screen then shuts off and repeats.

this fixed my blinking:
rpmb provisioned ...pink
rpmb fuse: 1 ...yellow
recovery booting ...blue

This does not work. I've tried it multiple times on multiple versions of Odin. This will not work if you use Boost Mobile. It either fails, hangs at flashing boot.img, or hangs at SetupConnection.

This works to get you back to stock from bootloop. I tried my hand at rooting this little SOB (TWRP,Magisk) and tripped the Knox counter bc I forgot to wipe it. Reboot came up with "Validation Failure" and I was stuck. I stumbled over this post and with nothing to lose other than $130.
First piece of advice...Use Odin 3.12.3 ONLY!! I tried the latest version and it didn't work. Download the files, place them in the appropriate boxes and flash. reboot into recovery, wipe the cache/data and you should be good. Mine took quite a while after hanging on the Boost mobile splash screen, but about 3 reboots later, it brought me to the configuration screen. It's up, running and I even got the OTA software update, but then again, it is stock.
