[Q] Problem after flashing CF-Auto Root S5 SMG900F

Hi guys im a bit rusty again in all this since i rooted my S3 and HTC desire years ago ,
I have an Galaxy S5 SM-G900F (bought seperately without any provider)(EU)
after 2-3 months now and getting the official android 5.0 upgrade, i thought it be time to Root my device again ,
i followed this link and how to from ChainFire "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696537"
wich i been using on my Galaxy Tab 7 Lite(T110) as well and worked flawlessly
I followed the exact steps as usual , rooting went fine, phone rebooted as it should , i updated SUPERSU and its binaries and installed Ericson's Busybox,. ,and everything worked as it should ,
then i put off my phone and boot in to recovery mode to flash the Philz_touch_6.26.1-klte.zip (touch recovery)
when im in my stock recovery i facepalm'd myself because i hadnt put the flashable recovery file on my internal storage yet ,
so i wanted to reboot back in the phone so i could put the file on my internal storage so id be able to flash it from stock recovery ,,..
this is where it all got strange,.
My phone stays black after Boot logo, gives me errors like ,. SYSTEM UI STOPPED ,. and so on for about everything that keep the phone running , i mean really everything STOPS , after about 15 minutes and klicking away all the Stopped msg's , it just reboots again to do the same.
i tried starting the phone in SAFE MODE ,. . Same thing,...
this all just came up after i booted to STOCK RECOVERY ,. and back to Android without changing anything,.

Did you use the latest version of ODIN to flash the CF Root?
Think Odin3 v3.10.6 is the latest current version
If you used an old version, try flashing it again using the new one, other than that, I can only suggest trying to fix permissions in recovery if it has that option, TWRP should have it, and finally a factory reset, which is not ideal

i used Odin3-v3.07
but after flashing the root everything worked installed superSU and updated it and its binaries and installed busybox,.
it all stopped working after i went into Stock Recovery and back
id prefer not to do a factory reset Wipe,. unless i really have to to fix it ,.
im going to try reflash with the latest version then,.
i have swapped SD card to galaxy tab to put the Flashable touch recovery on the SD card, and swapped back to the phone so i could Flash the Recovery when im in stock ,.
but ill try flashing Root with latest Odin first.. thank you

the new odin is a bit less informative (to me as beginner)
i managed to use AP to flash the root again
all goes fine , it reboots
and its now upgrading android as it says and opening app's
then Black screen again,. i klick a button,. and it shows me again all the STOPPED msg's of all internal apps that are crashing,. litterally all apps,
what can i do ?

If clearing cache didn't work, fixing permissions in recovery didn't work, only thing left I can think of is factory reset

i cant fix persmission in stock recovery and flashing the philz touch recovery didnt work something about not verify signature,.
al i can do i guess is wipe data factory reset ,.but im affraid it wont fix anything

Try TWRP recovery instead
http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/229
No reason a factory reset won't fix things, worst comes to worst, flash the whole ROM again from ODIN, that will fix everything as it wipes and reinstalls the lot
Grab a stock ROM from sammobile

Thank you for all your replys mate..
I managed to get it working again by doing a factory reset in stock recovery after I flashed root with latest odin
Even tho it was my last resort there was nothing else I guess .
I'm not sure tho if this will happen again when I go back to recovery like I did when this all happend the first time while I actually want to flash a more advanced recovery then stock recovery ..
But I'll take my chances and just leave it as it is
Again thank you for your help and suggestions .

Pleased you got it working again, I would say if you think you might want to flash another advanced recovery in the future, it might be best to do that now since you have already factory reset the phone, that way if this happens again, you don't lose months of data and settings and files that you have gathered between now and whenever you decide to flash recovery

i have actually ,. i installed the TWRP u mentioned,. by taking there app from the Playstore,. and flashed the new recovery, within android and without rebooting (just in case)
im used to the old CWM thats why i first wanted the Touch recovery as its based on it,
but always open for trying new things
Thank you

Good stuff
Id say the whole entering recovery / apps crashing thing was a problem with the ODIN version you used to root, too old for Lollipop is my guess, so I wouldn't worry about entering recovery again.

Don't use Flashify but Odin on the PC to flash TWRP. That should resolve the missing recovery issue. Otherwise you'll need to flash a stock ROM through Odin and start from scratch.

I tried twrp via odin.
So flash via odin stock rom, twrp, via twrp restore backup (ihave from few days ago)?
Can't I just "factory reset" recovery module (partition, settings, something)?

just reflash TWRP. No need to reflash stock rom.

Hello,
I've tried to used Flashify app to queue some actions:
-make nandroid backup
-flash rom
-flash gapps
It rebooted to recovery but nothing happened (stays at TWRP recovery start logo). Since then I can not boot TWRP. I've tried to reflash it, flash CWM (works, but cant read anything because F2FS).
/cache/recovery is empty
Where else could some TWRP setting/queued command be stored? I would like to do "wipe of the recovery", but dunno how.
Thanks for any tips

I have the same problem. It starts some days ago. Did You use AICP rom? Maybe its rom related. I cant fix that problem, flashed TWRP via odin - didnt help, CWM - didnt see cache and data due to F2FS.
Any solution?

..

Since none of what people suggested to do worked, flash stock rom

Can u please help me how to find country of my note 4 so that I can downlod formware from Sam Mobile ?

Doesn't matter the country... It happened to me when I updated to 511 from 501... I didn't like the 511 rom and tried to go back to 501 via nandroid... Then always bootloops... In either case just flash stock via Odin

s5 fix from bootloop what to do?

So after a week of just bootloop, black screen of death and hard reset my rooted s5 suddenly open again.
Now that its open again what can I do to fix this? Cause im afraid that if i'll restart my phone i will get stuck in the bootlooop.
Suggestions?
Just to give you an update my s5 has been rooted for the past 2 years ...its just now that it got stuck in the bootloop.. im not really sure what caused this cause havent installed any apps that could affect the system...
Any ideas how can I fix it while its working again?

Would help if you gave us the model S5 it is, which firmware it's running, recovery etc?

Its g900f using stock rom... stock recovery
Please see attached file
Thanks in advance.

Download stock ROM using samfirm (or sammobile .com)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647
Put phone in download mode
Connect to PC USB > add .MD5 ROM to AP section in ODIN 3.10.7
Flash
Boot to recovery > Factory reset

Any other fix without flashing?

Any other fix.. that doesnt require flashing?

Why don't you want to reflash? If you're rooted you should have backups.

Ok I think I missed that part... ok so if I flash, everthing will be wiped out right?
How do I back it up?

No it won't, and for a proper backup you need TWRP recovery
If your phone is having problems like it is, you very likely need to flash
Just flash the stock ROM over the top and your apps and data will remain
But backup photos and important files first by connecting the phone to USB and copying to PC
Forget about apps, you can reinstall them if something goes wrong

Ok thanks im starting to understand it now.. i just need to confirm a few things before i start doing it...i have watched a few vids and ok i think i missed installing a custom recovery... ill install it later and go with cwm...
Flashing the stock.. means getting my firmware(which has the size of 1gig+) in sammobile ang flashing it using odin right?

Read my 2nd post

Thanks alot got it! One last question , suppose that im not going to lose my apps but am i going to lose root once i have flashed the stock rom?

Yep, just root again, instructions are all over the forum, easy to find
Because you're getting bootloops, I suggested factory reset too, that will wipe the device, the flash won't, the reset will

I assume here's the steps that i need to take
1. Back up through cwm
2. Flash stock rom through odin
3. Clear dalv cache
4. Factory reset through recovery or from the homescreen setting?(will this removed supersu?)
6. Root device again
5. Restore back backup from cwm recovery?

Better method:
Flash TWRP 3.0.2.0 (Much more powerful recovery)
Make full Nandroid backup in TWRP
Wipe everything apart from Internal and External storage
Boot into Download Mode
Flash stock ROM with ODIN 3.10.7
Reboot
Now boot back into download mode
Flash TWRP 3.0.2.0 again
Boot into TWRP
Flash systemless SuperSU 2.72 beta or whichever is the latest beta atm
Don't restore your backup or you could end up with the same problems as before, I recommend using TiBu to restore your apps and data from the backup you made in TWRP

Yes, if I dont do so, the flash will suspend and give a message saying to factory reset first.

I have never seen that message when flashing any Samsung phone via Odin.

This is flashing via TWRP 3.0.2.0

You're using twrp to flash a stock rom? I recommend using Odin or heimdall for flash a stock rom from sammobile.com.

sorry for the confusion mate. When I flash stock I use Odin only.. after all completed.. I will then factory reset again and wipe on twrp.. If I forget to wipe steps, the flash suspends with a message advising me to wipe first. I am going to update to Resurrection Remix 5.6.9 and see how it goes for stability fixes with the UI.

Possible its TWRP try Philz Recovery .
