are you using Stock ROM?, if yes, flash the ROM again using Odin, no need to wipe anything, and nothing will be wiped, and you will get your phone app back.
if you're using a custom ROM, reboot into Recovery and flash the ROM then wipe cache and dalvik cache, and reboot.
download the stock ROM from sammobile.com or samsung-firmware.org, or samsung-updates.com

As 123hiten said, flash back to stock and build up. That's super strange though. I was able to flash back from 4.3 back to 4.2 no problem.

Hey there, quick question
I have a S4 with touchwiz stock android 4.3 XXUEMJ5 and want to flash the official final version.
If I flash via Odin then would I lose my data, apps etc?
If so then is there another way to avoid this?
Thank you

I always flash TW ROMS through ODIN and never had a issue. Just make sure to download the proper firmware for your region, boot your phone in download mode (volume down + home + power) and transfer through ODIN. There's a LOT of tutorials on XDA.
When coming from Official Roms I never had to wipe anything. The new ROM will update the cache anyway during the first boot.
Good luck!

I'm on a leaked 4.3 ROM and want to flash the final 4.3 ROM. The leaked ROM which I'm currently running is from a different country also.
Do you think any of this will matter?
Thanks
Hello!!!! First of all this is an awesome forum wich I read all the time and had helped me a lot with my old i9000. I really appreciate your hard work.
I got an i9500 that was in stock 4.4.2, so I updated it to a custom ROM 4.4.4 but the battery usage is more than I expected to be and the phone gets really hot, more than before.
Now I want to get back to stock 4.4.2 from 4.4.4. Is there any special procedure I need to do or I just flash it with ODIN and everything should be OK?
I will really appreciate any help in this matter.

Hi,
You have to fullwipe your device before and after you flash it. Then take the right 4.4.2 stock firmware and it will work.

So... this is what I'm going to do:
1.-Full Wipe. (cache, system, dalvik, etc.)
2.-Take the right stock 4.4.2 ROM and flash it with ODIN
3.-Another full wipe
Is that correct?
Thanks for your help.

Hi Guys,
As you can see, I am new to this site. My phone is S4 19505. Yesterday, I tried to root my phone and that was a succes. Problem began when I want to install kernel for longer battery life. I have installed kernel from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2297379 and I have chosen Touchwiz KitKat 4.4 version. After I flashed this kernel my s4 is not starting. It just stuck at first screen "where we get first white letters samsung galaxy s4".
I have no idea what to do now.
Can anyone please help me?
Advance thanks.

twrp. I dont know what you mean by stock rom because this is my first time I did. My device is running 4.4.2. and I chose for kernel 4.4 version of tw.
I think that you have to re-flash a new rom. Then, you have to retry installing root and the kernel.

I agree with msmlz, if you have nandroid restore it or download the firmware in sammobile and reflash it and before flashing the custom kernel again, read the thread, see if someone face bootloop like you. Hope someone with experience on it could help you, I never install custom kernel, just update the last stock kernel on my rooted stock rom.
hi i want to completely format my n910f and re install the stock rom.
can i use TWRP to format the phone and afterwards install the stock rom with odin ?
or do i have to do this another way ?
i tried some custom roms and im on stock lollipop now but have the feeling that things will get better if i completely start over agian.
