Hey Guys,
i have a problem with flashing custom recovery on my I9505(jfltexx).
When i flash "DBT-I9505XXUBMEA-20130601103235" via Odin and in addition the "CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505" my phone boots up, most of the time but not all the time. Now when i try to flash custom Recovery via Odin, my phone stucks at the Samsung Galaxy Logo and it wont continue. Even if i enter the standard recovery from Goomanager and i select "reboot system now" it stucks on the Logo!
Any Help?
Thanks in Advance

Yeah but thats the problem. I can't enter the recovery mode and when i try to flash a PRE-rooted rom from djembey my device stuck at the BootLogo.
In a nutshell: There is no option performing a wipe!

Thanks for your effort. But i have to tell you the whole Story.
Yesterday i wanted to install the PA-Rom from verttigo. Before i was on the OMEGA 6.0 Version with Ktsoonez custom kernel. So i entered the recovery mode, did a backup, Full-Wipe, and then the huge MISTAKE, I formatted data and system and everything was gone. No Backup i could reinstall nor a ROM i could install. Than my phone rebooted and stucked at the samsung Logo. So i thought the F shall i do?!?!
I entered the download Mode and tried to install the prerooted Rom from djembey but i stucked also on the samsung logo. Since than im sitting in front of my Phone crying!

Ok now i get it as per what i see i can still get your device back to normal but myte take multiple try rest assured it will work
1st flash a stock firmware again (not rooted pure stock) this time using pit file along with firmware
and while flashing the firmware using odin and pit do check re-partition also
Note with out pit file do not check the re-partition box
and once the flashing is done device should boot if its not booting
go to stock recovery like how i told u earlier and do factory reset and wipe cache
and reboot
and tell me the status.. all the best

So let me get this clear. In Odin i should check the stock Rom in PIT instead of PDA? And check the Re-Partion box?

Based on what you said, it seem like you still have all the partitions intact. Just that they are empty right now.
Did you do a full backup before all this problem happen? Or did you do a custom backup?
Are your backups stored in external memory and is a full backup? If so, try using custom recovery to restore your backup?

Chill. Your phone is definitely not bricked. I encountered your problem before when i was experimenting with something.
- Right now, boot to whatever recovery that you have. Try to wipe cache, dalvik, and any other partition if possible.
- After that, boot to download mode and try to flash STOCK rom using odin. Check that flash was success.
- Try to boot your phone and report here on what happens.
Edit: You might want to consider restarting your computer and changing usb port. "Faulty" Usb port will affect the flashing part.

Behave your speech smart guy, they are trying to help!
general rule on how to fix a bootloop:
1- Wipe data and cache. If not,
2- Restore a nandroid backup if available. If not,
3- Flash stock firmware, If not,
4- Flash stock firmware with pit file (you can try pit file alone).

Not an "easier" way to flash a new recovery??
Is it possible to flash zip update without having to flash miui first ?
like going back to miui from cyanogenmod without using fast boot processes
Just flash stock miui rom.zip in recovery
already tried doesn't work on both original recovery nor on twrp

i always do this to get back to miui and it works. By the way which rom are you currently on? and which recovery you use.explain everything.
Best way
1.fastboot Stock ROM
2.Root,Install Custom Recovery(i prefer flashify,take a backup of stock recovery)
3.Backup using custom recovery.(copy backup to PC/OTG,no need for 32GB cards)
4.flash desired rom.
5.Migrate data using Nandroid Manager/Titanium Backup.
6.If don't like ROM,restore stock from recovery.
7.if you dont want custom recovery too,restore from flashify
8.Unroot
Ta Da,Back to out of the box
Done

he asked without fastboot.

Is there any way to restore the stock color os without using pc?
Are you on a custom rom with custom recovery ( r2x2, twrp, etc ... ) ?
AID to all

If you are in a custom recovery, then flash the stock recovery first. Keep the latest firmware of Color OS (ozip) from Realme's website downloaded into your SD Card. Steps:
1. Now boot to stock recovery.
2. Wipe internal storage from there.
3. Then tap on 'Apply Update from Storage'.
4. Select SD Card and select the ozip file downloaded and click confirm.
Yes, and your phone will boot up into the stock OS and thereafter if you wish, you can relock the bootloader and apply to exit in depth test to get future OTA updates.... Hope it helps !!!!!!
by following this mathod can i go back to color os 5.0 (i have locked bootloader)
You Can Try

If you already have a locked bootloader and installed pie-beta update already, then this process of downgrading might not work. However, you can try it. If that doesn't work you may have to install TWRP once again and clear the 'Internal Storage' in the Advanced wipe section again to remove your current version of Color OS, and then repeat the above mentioned process. Be careful !!! Do a full backup of your files and all personal info once again.
