Hi guys
So I've been flashing roms to my phones for a while now, and I rooted my s4 pretty soon after I got it. I have been running Omega rom which has been good but I had a few little issues.
I decided to go to my old s2 rom, JellyBam. I did a full wipe and flashed the rom. Now i'm stuck in a bootloop. The phone will not go past the "Samsung Galaxy S4 GTI9505" page... If I attempt to boot into recovery, I get the "recovery booting" text, but then it goes black and fails again..
The phone will not go into download mode either..
I'm running out of ideas, has anyone got any suggestions?
Cheers
Jake
Did you flash a s2 rom to a s4 ?

Lol no, the correct i9505 rom.
I managed to get the phone in download mode, seems to only go in when a usb cable is connected (I used my OTG cable).
Mods delete this if you wish. Thanks

Hi guys,
Yesterday, i turned off my device to sleep. When i turnet it on, it restart 3 times in sequence, than i take off battery , waited 1min e turned on again. But, it wasnt load OS, it freezed at Samsung logo.
So i decided to try restore the custom room (Google Edition), but i cant entered at cwm recovery, freezed downloading mode screen. Than i tried to flash with odin cwm again. Flash sucessfully but could not load cwm.
Than im started to getting panic, nervous and patience gone. I downloaded from sammobile the stock room and flash with odin. It isnt work again. After flash, the phone boot and freeze for loooooong time at screen with blue text recovering boot and Samsung logo.
I tried from KIES too, but have no sucess...
I dont know what I must have to do anymore. My ideas, knowlodge are now over. Is that any possible about triangle way cause this ? My device doesnt boot anymore. Always freezing screen. I waited for many minutes, like 20minutes and nothing.
Files that i downloaded:
- I9505_VJUBMG3_STOCK_RECOVERY.tar.md5
- I9505VJUBMG3_STOCK_KERNEL.tar.md5
- I9505VJUBMG3-PRE-ROOTED-ODEX-FULL.tar.md5
- I9505VJUAMDM_I9505ZTOAMDM_I9505VJUAMDM_HOME.tar.md5
- and Philz recovery, CWM recovery.
Guys, what really happened?
funny thing
tha same happened to me last week.
I fixed it by downloading another version of Stock Rom for s4 and flashing it with odin.
The stock rom I used had only 1 file (1.7gb) and flashed it using only the pda button.
maybe it will work for you also.
oh and by the way
I used team win recovery project instead of CWM recovery

Yeah, i think my problem isnt the room, because i have 2 here, one default from sammbile and other I9505VJUBMG3-PRE-ROOTED-ODEX-FULL.tar.md5
My problem is after flash the room, it isnt boot. It stop at Samsung logo with blue text recovering boot. How long did you waited for this? Or you just disconnect cable after reboot and flash again to teamwin ?

Flash the new Brazilian rom with odin ( http://www.hotfile.com/dl/234152687/723aa16/I9505VJUBMG3_I9505ZTOBMG3_ZTO.zip.html ).
Wait reboot. Power off, and reboot in recovery mode, wipe data + cache (Vol Up+Home+Power).
The first time, you need wait a lot of time (1~20 minutes).

TWRP isn't CWM, didn't see you mention it yet.
Today i must to give up, because time is against me. I leave the device at samsung assistence. Lets see what they will say for me.
I dont have screenshots, but im sure that i follow all those steps correctly. I tried many ways with odin, ticking unticking things, step by step.
By the way, im so happy with all here tried to help me. The beautifull word that i can say is Thanks, thanks guys!
Weird think: Switching from S4 for X10 is a punishment! My old and warrior X10 have no more battery life, like a mini screen now, slow cpu... but its ok, is better than my x810i.
Thank You guys (all people that help me), for everything.
Hey Guys
I have a 900W8 Canadian Galaxy Note 3 through Telus that I had rooted and recovery with TWRP.
Today I went to backup, and backed up the default 3....Boot system and I forget the other one...
To make sure it worked I decided to to a recovery right away.
I ended up in a boot loop......panic starts to set in...
Go back into TWRP....and I think I wiped something I shouldn't have..because when I went to reboot in TWRP it said No OS detected or something along those lines....
With panic really starting to set in........Put the phone in download mode....open up Odin on my pc.....connect my note 3.......reinstalled the rooted rom and TWRP.
Now I'm forever stuck on the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 logo...
If anyone can help me I'd be very greatful
Thank you

Find your stock rom, flash that - a rooted rom is NOT a stock rom...
Have you tried doing a factory reset from recovery? If it still says no os installed, you will have to flash back your stock firmware or a rom ( if you already tripped knox ).

thanks for the reply
Help, i have the same Problem
Crisis averted guys
Thanks for telling me to install the original firmware.
Phone boots up and works perfectly now.
To whoever said they have the EXACT same problem as me...download the original firmware for your phone (make sure you get the right version for your carrier) and flash it using ODIN.
Hello guys.
I am in a bit of a situation.
I own a Samsung Galaxy S4 i9500.I rooted it 1 year ago and I have installed Omega rom.Whenever I try to install a new ROM i encounter a weird issue:i ALWAYS get stuck in the Samsung (welcome) screen. it seems I am "bound" to use omega rom.
The funny thing is that now i stuck at one single version of the omega rom , the V22.For instace , i tried to install omega rom v26 and i get the same issue: the samsung screen.
Please help me solve this problem. I want to install the OzcanRom .
I forgot to mention: when it gets stuck there , the phone heats up very high.
So far i tried to:
Flash 3 different kernels.
Flash CF autoroot.
Nothing worked.
Forgive my mistakes , english is not my main lang..
Best Possible wayout is
1 Flash Stock ROM
2 Go to recovery, factory Default it
3 boot it to homescreen
4 Root it
5 Enjoy New Custom Rom Installation (install ROM)
Give a try..

Hi mate ,
Do a full wipe and format internal SD ( philz touch mount and storage / format / data/ internal SD ....not sd1 that is your external one) back up first , also all the pictures music and what ever you have in your internal SD that you care for,,,place rom in the external SD
BTW do you have by any chance the chinese PIT ??
I did all those things over and over ,at least 5 or 6 times and same thing happens.
What is the chinese PIT?

No you have the regular PIT
your TWRP recovery is old upgrade it and try again
I will be back in an hour with an edit about this.
Even with the last TWRP i get the same result...
Could you tell me at least why i can only install omega v22 and not v26?

what error you get while installing new ROM
The install goes well , no errors show up. I finish the install , reboot the phone and then it stays forever in the "SAMSUNG" screen.In addition to that , the phone heats up like crazy.
And the funny part is that i can only install omega v22 , if i try to install omega v26 ,it has the same issue.

Here is a great guide

You can download firmwares also from SamMobile.com
Try to reflash the Rom second time.
So:
Format
Flash
Reboot to recovery
Flash again the same Rom same options.
Had a similar sounding problem
Hi all Im a noob so apologies in advance as its the first time Ive rooted and used custom ROMS.
I rooted my phone a couple of months ago using ODIN, then successfully installed CM12.1 but found that this started to slow down and not perform well after a few weeks so I looked for other ROMs. In the end I installed BlissPop which is based on CM. This generally works really well but the software has been a big buggy as well with yesterday my main screen going black and not able to use the phone.
So ive been trying to install a different ROM and even tried to go back to the stock S5 firmware as i miss the camera in the stock firmware.
Now to install the ROMs Ive tried using CWM and TWRP with the same results.
Yesterday I tried to install The Galaxy Project ROM and the Stock Samsung ROM and in both cases made sure 100% i was using the correct version for my SM G900F .
What seems to happen is that it goes through the install process and says completed but when it boots it sits on the initial Samsung S5 boot screen and goes nowhere.
Since I rooted my phone on start up at this intial boot screen I get the below 2 messages at the top of the screen
Kernel is not seandroid enforcing
Set Warranty Bit Kernel
I'd like to add my phone is also encrypted as i had to encrypt it in order to use my gmail for work.
The only ROM that seems to work is BlissPop, i remember a message during installation of this ROM along the lines of "this install is block based" if that makes any sense.
Last week when i tried to install a new ROM on several occasions the phone would get to the first screen where it would ask me to unlock the phone but I would NOT be able to use the keyboard as no keyboard would appear.
This is driving me nuts so I really could do with some help please
Thanks Bart
Flash stock, boot into recovery, factory reset, see if it boots
just so im clear
do you mean
flash stock - via cwm or twrp in recovery
reboot into recovery
factory reset at this point
see if it boots?

You can't flash stock from recovery, you flash stock with ODIN - if you can flash it from recovery, it's not stock
Latest G900F Lollipop Stock ROM (BTU United Kingdom)
Code:
https://mega.nz/#!fVhhzRBC!A79uC8Fgg1mGCZOaujQCzBxcUUN9z_ctVVkigD8ffVM
Then boot into recovery and factory reset
ok well that could be my probllem
never flashed stock rom thru odin
do i set phone to download as normal , connect phone to pc and choose AP option in ODIN?
downloading the stock rom you sent a link for too
Yep, AP or PDA section in ODIN, same download mode method as anything else in ODIN
I assume that I don't need to extract the zip file and just select it to flash

A side question but you can tell me to get lost if I'm taking the piss
I've got multiple g mail accounts, is there a file anywhere that saves all the credentials so that when I have to rebuild my phone for the umpteenth time I can restore this and not have to set each one up

If you have Google Backup enabled, it should restore your accounts and stuff once you log back into the main Google account your phone was logged into before you wiped/reset/reflashed I would assume (Not used it though)
arghhh bugger
so it seems to have flashed the rom correctly and booted.
however after boot as my phone is encrypted it asks me for my password to unlock the phone.
i put in my correct password but it doesnt accept it.
going round in circles - what can i do?
rebooted info recovery and factory reset it
now im in and looks like back to stock
will keep you posted
Im finally back in now
Thanks so much for your help
hopefully this runs better than the last stock rom as it started to seriosuly slow down hence looking at other roms
Good job
