Does it give mmc error in download mode?
If yes emmc is physically damaged

Thanks for suggestion. I am trying to format it. Hope it could be ok.

I flashed firmware with pit option to reformat all nand partitions to correct errors if it were there, but still not successes. The processes stay the same, flash then the phone restart to stock recovery then flashing something then crashed in the middle and finally went off.
I tried flash twrp and try to restore the phone by my stock rom backed up but the problem still there, the restoring breaked in the middle then turn off.
I guest i have some errors in the middle of the emmc so if the rom could be smaller then i can pass the problem.
Finally I unbricked the phone by flashing a smaller rom (an unoffical pie for trltedous) which only around 1gb zip. This time everything was passed then The phone boot in to the pie os.
After boot success, I tried to fullfil my phone by some data and magically pie full os can write full of my storage. I turn it of then use odin to flash stock firmware. This time everything ok.
From this case, I thing we should have a tiny flashable os to correct problem in emmc. As tiny as posible.

Clockwork recovery loop! Help needed!

So I was going to try the new Sense ROM for my I9000 and this is what happened:
I flashed the Speedmod kernel via ODIN, got into recovery - then flashed efs-backup.
After that I flashed the CM7 kernel via ODIN, did a system, cache and data format and installed the rom itself.
Now every time I turn on the phone, it gets into recovery... same happens if i press reboot system now in clockworkmod recovery
Is there still hope for me? All your help is appreciated!
this has happened to me too.
what happens is when you format system you actually format the OS on the phone. meaning that the only thing installed on the phone is the kernel.
resulting in a loop of recovery mode.
flash the rom again through recovery and see where that takes you.
if problem still persists. start whole process again

Yeah, but I did that before I flashed the ROM... Tried it again, still the same thing. (And I tried the whole thing from the beginning over and over again)
have you flashed back to froyo with 3 files and pit ?
what rom was you on before this happened, as it could be down to gingerbread bootloaders
I was on Froyo, Voodoo kernel
well just try 1 last time, make sure the FW comes in all 3 files, use 512 pit and check repartition in odin.
then take the necessary steps to get back to the sense ROM

[Q] [Help] i9505 not booting after flashing Omega ROM

I dunno what went wrong here...
1) I have GT-I9505 (SSN: -I9505GSMH). I installed Galaxy S4 toolkit
2) Reboot into download mode. Used toolkit/Odin to root phone. Boots up. See SU.
3) Reboot into download mode. Used toolkit/Odin. Flashed TWRP Recovery
4) Phone boots up normal. Reboot into TWRP recovery. Did a factory Reset. Format.
5) Installed Zip (Latest Omega 9.0 ROM), unchecked the things I didn't want to install. Completed install, no errors reported. Rebooted.
6) Phone stuck on Samsung boot screen. I left it overnight thinking sometimes it may take 15 mins to boot system after new install.
7) Woke up, battery dead. Tried to charge phone. No charging indicators when plugged in. With whatever juice I had left I booted into TWRP recovery, it starts to charge again as I see the % batter increase after 5 mins.
-=-=-=-=- Did the Following to try to repair
a) Reinstalled Omega, this time leaving alll options on. Rebooted, stuck in Samsung boot
b) Flashed Phil CWM touch recovery, did complete wipe to install new ROM. Rebooted into Phil recovery. Flashed OMEGA. Reboot, stuck in Samsung boot.
c) Rebooted into Phil recovery, installed echo ROM, rebooted. Black screen. Rebooted into Phil. This time cannot get into recovery.
d) Started panicking, used Odin flashed TWRP. Would not flash. Something displayed about PIT error. Flashed Phil again. Reboot into recovery, WORKS! (recovery only). Went back into Download mode flashed TWRP. Rebooted, also WORKS!. Did a factory wipe. During wipe there was an error. Format, factory reset, error during wipe. Flashed OMEGA. Reboot. Stuck on samsung boot loop.
e) Downloaded official Samsung kernal for i9505 thinking it was the full flash rom. Flashed with ODIN (hoping to put everything back to factory). Completed flash, phone boots. I get OMEGA ANIMATION!!! Waited for 15 mins. Stuck on Animation. Reflashed TWRP. Rebooted, installed OMEGA...again. Stuck on samsung boot screen.
-=-=-= Kinda frustrated. What did I do wrong in the beginning?
There are so many official roms for the S4 based on region. What can I do to put it back to factory again? I purchased phone in Australia @ Samsung store. I figured download the Australia ROM but there are like 5 of them 4 being network branded roms I think. THe other one XSA is unbranded?
I tried searching for help but so far nothing works.
omega ROM or any other custom ROM uses single CSC so before booting into system you must boot into stock recovery to apply CSC of that ROM, download stock recovery of that firmware the ROM was built from
after applying CSC it will work if not flash Omega 9.0 again , it will work :good::good:

Thanks for responding
So I take it when I did the full factory wipe and FORMAT the formatting part erased the CSC?
The steps are:
1) Find stock recovery of the original ROM OMEGA was built on. Use odin, flash that specific recovery. ( I might as well do a complete flash of the original stock firmware)
2) Use odin, replace recovery with TWRP, flash Omega this time no formatting
Reboot should be ok?

first use CWM or TWRP or whatever you want and format everthing
flash a fresh firmware(latest i prefer)
then flash stock recovery via odin of the built version what v9 was used, simply reboot to recovery and it will say MULTI CSC APPLIED from fresh frimware you used
then flash TWRP/CWM and flash v9
again simply reboot to recovery and it will say MULTI CSC APPLIED from V9
it will reboot, you must need to apply CSC to boot your phone
I can confirm this!
I was trying to flash Omega 9 on top of jamal's 4.3 and my phone always booted to recovery. So I restored my stock touchwiz (no custom recovery or even root) nandroid backup and applied Omega 9: it worked!

problem
I need help. I am on stock build i9505XXUBMG5. then I rooted it using CF-autoroot. and i used the 1.85 version of ODIN. (Does the version of ODIN affect how the phone is rooted?) Anyways, After that, it is rooted. then after some time, my Wifi is not working or not turning on. I checked google and found the *#0011# method and turned off the Wifi power saving. Then, at first, it worked. After a while, the problem insists. but randomly turns on. I observed that in the *#0011# -> wifi window, the state is power off. but when it is completely not turning on, the state is now disconnected. How can I fix this?
I tried flashing Omega ROM, because there was a wifi fix on that ROM. But when I finished flashing it and continue to reboot, it's stuck on the boot animation. It is not even the Omega robot animation, just the original animation. (Another problem) i tried wiping cache, delvik cache and data but nothing happens.

Do you have an IMEI showing on your phone? What recovery did you use to flash Omega?
It matters, because some recoveries will screw it up.
Do you try to install with Philz recovery?

At this point I think it is the CSC issue arnob-xperia mentioned.
This is how I corrected my issue.
1) Omega v10 uses newer base FW. In their description it tells u. (ex: ver 9 uses XUBMG5). Search on the i9505 forums here. I can't link for some reason I can't see any of the stickied threads, especially the one listing all avail stock firmwares.
Flash into Philz or TWRP do a complete wipe of everything including data. etc.
You MUST download the full firmware, Not just the smaller kernel and recovery or csc. The full stock fw is usually over 1.6 GB. Anything around that range and u got the right one for Odin flash with the md5. Use Odin to flash. I used 1.85 and it was fine.
2) Once done it will reboot and in theory you are stock everything. At this point, for me somehow the phone got stuck in fricken boot loop. I pulled out battery, reboot into stock recovery and made sure I saw the multicsc. Rebooted. Still boot loop.
After hours of doing all sorts of things and putting the phone aside for a day. Came back, flashed the stock fw again using Odin. Reboot into recovery. Check the multi csc. Reboot. Stuck in boot loop. Reboot to download mode. Then I decided to ROOT the phone for ****s and giggles. This worked!
Phone booted.
3) Now you have stock (for that specific OMEGA fw) w/ the matching CSC. From here on follow OMEGA flash instructions for the specific things it tells u to wipe. DO NOT DO A FULL WIPE/FORMAT like I did (what got me in the mess to begin with).
** For Galaxy S3s, S4s, for some reason I've always had problems with TWRP. I had better luck using Philz. Everyone's personal experience varies on this one.
** I think the problem has to do with the CSC which handles specific region phone and carrier modes. This doesn't mean that it won't work if you use a diff region CSC. Just that it has to match the FW base you are using otherwise you have all sorts of problems. After that you can go in android and setup your APNs etc if you have probs with data. I didn't have this problem and was testing using the UK fw base on AU network sim.
*** Why does Samsung make things so damn complicated. I remember way back in 2k3 using fricken ODIN (samsung flashing utitility) to flash **** and it was the same setup as now. This whole crap about CSC pairing is a bit annoying. It is bad enough there are 6+ variations of S4s lol...
Hope this helps.

I did flash the Omega v9.1 and applied the wifi fix but the wifi is still broken. I tried unrooting it by flashing the original rom and formatting the data but the wifi is still broken. I can't turn it on. Thanks for the instructions anyways. ))
no pit partition
also, when i tried to root it again, it fails and says there is no PIT partition..
Where is the csc in TWRP so I can so what ones on the phone..??
What stock firmware can I use for a Orange Network in the UK.
GT-i9505 stuck on boot when upgraded from omega v16 to v21
Hello guys,
Well, I followed all the instructions and flashed new bootloader and new modem and after that I installed omega v21 with Full swipe. After that I ended up stuck in boot animation. :s What to do? I already tried to re-flash modem and bootloader, updated CWM and tried to re-install that v21 and after that I flashed twrp over cwm and tried to re-install v21 but always I ended up stuck in that boot animation. :S All installs were successful, but it just wont boot.
What to do?
Hopefully you understand my problem.
Cheers from Finland!
Nico
EDIT:
Ok, I flashed omega rom v19 with full wipe and tried to boot. Didnt work, but then I installed Kies to my computer, opened Kies, Plugged USB in and started my phone and then Kaboom! It booted. What exactly happened there?

Hi, I am having the same problem. First I installed the new firmware (NA5) and modem, tested it with the Omega ROM v21 and boot caught on so now tested the rom Fox Hound 4.1 and am having the same problem.
Kies tested this option but have not had the same luck as you. = /
Anyone know the reason? The rom Google Edition Jamal runs on my phone.

S4 not booting into recovery or anything after a factory reset

Hi guys,
I was running cyanogenmod 12 on my s4 i9505 sucessfully. Today I decided to encrypt my device, and I went ahead with it and it was sucessful except for the fact my apps got deleted. I set the phone to factory reset as I didn't it anymore and it went ahead and restarted. However now it boots up with the blue text at the top left saying booting into the recovery, The Twrp screen (the blue one) comes up but it then disappears and reappears. Im not too sure on what to do. Also removing the battery and reinserting it doesn't make a difference, as when i switch my phone on again it comes up with the blue recovery boot text.
I would just like for my phone to work, I dont need any data back.
Thank you

I found some firmware, but Im not sure which one Im meant to use. I bought my phone from amazon.
What is the baseband and bootloader on the phone? These two items will hep identify the stock ROM for the phone.
I would flash the recovery with Odin. See if you can get into download mode by holding power, volume up and home button simultaneously. If so you can download Odin to a PC and flash CWM or TWRP. Google the tar file for your specific device and you can find what you need. . Once set up on PC you can then connect phone to PC while in download mode and reinstall a recovery. Suggest you reinstall CM ROM if you have zip file and gapps file on an SD card. Good luck

Samsung GT i9505 Boot loop

Hello,
trying to help a pal bring his phone back to life.
Used the latest version of odin to flash an official rom. Odin showed that it had passed and flung up no errors. Boot loop remained.
Eventually tracked down the correct carrier via sammobile and downloading it.
If this doesn't work then I am out of idea's.
Anything else I could do to fix it or could it be hardware?
Before flashing, uncheck everything in Odin. Flash rom and, when you see the word "reset" in the status window, remove the USB cable, remove battery, replace battery, use button combination to boot into recovery, factory wipe, reboot.
Thanks ..... The only thing I didn't try there was factory wipe when in recovery

flashed the official carrier rom and unfortunately it still boot loops.
Odin is showing pass every time i flash a rom and no errors

Also it only boots into doing mode not recovery
thinking its hardware
now when i try to flash any roms at all its failing, even roms that previously passed.

Bricked, always loops back to splash screen

Title says it all. Fastboot works, flashing works. Even if I try to charge the phone on power off condition, it loops infinitely to splash screen. Tried flashing both custom and official ROMs via fastboot. I don't think this is an emmc problem since I can still format and erase all partitions.
Before all of this, I used the official RR Nougat ROM. Everything works fine until it suddenly bootloops out of thin air.

Try this one. May help u. Extract from official ROM. And flash those things. System IMG is not needed if u have any old backup means. Flash use this. Go to recovery and restore old one.
Bcz system image is large, so sumtyms it fails to flash. That's y I said lrave the system data image flashing and restore the backup.
