[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Carbudda:
Success!

I spent way more time on this than I wanted to. So hopefully the little things I missed will help someone else. With the current ROMS you cannot go backwards (DUH!) so I needed to have a good clean copy of the ROM that I had gotten on the OTA update. Couldn't find one until k1mu showed me the way... The write issue turned out to be that the USB port on the front of my Dell computer was not suitable for the job. Once I used the OEM cable and rear USB port I was able to get the past the "write" issue. Then I was having a problem with AUTH Failed near the end of the ODIN session. I figured there was an issue with the download as I was having a lot of difficult getting it run to completion. I finally got a good image from the server. During all this I did get the phone to finally boot into Recovery but the ROM was so damaged that many things did not work like the sound... I was able to put it into DEV Mode by pushing the screen seven times under SETTINGS/MORE/ABOUT PHONE/BUILD NUMBER/ which I think was my original problem. What a waste of time. I having previously played around with my Samsung Charge and Galaxy S3 I never expected this much difficulty...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] maxnic:
Seeing as how I have a rooted S4, and I'm seeing you all have trouble....

What is the unroot process, in case I have to do this myself? I only rooted, everything is still stock, with SuperSU installed.

In my case(and probably most of everyone else's) is the unroot just to download the stock image and flash through Odin? No need to remove SuperSU beforehand or anything weird?

Still on stock recovery by the way!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Carbudda:
I am no expert but...

ODIN can write to the PIT partition but you will need the PIT file for your phone. I don't know what phone you have or which carrier. The only thing I can suggest is to look for the PIT file and load it in to your phone via ODIN.

Good Luck

I am not an expert on cell phones. There are a lot of guys on here that know a ton more than me about this stuff. I you have questions about your car I am an expert...

I think if you take the OTA you will be unrooted. I don't know how to stop the OTA but that is what got me into the mess I was in... I had SU and everything still on my phone when I took the OTA and it remained afterwards but didn't try it's function. I was trying to root my phone after the OTA because I assumed I had lost root...

The process should be as simple as you state. You would just need to write the stock image of what ever system you are on to your phone. Just make sure you follow all the procedures for ODIN. The answers are here on the forums but you have to dig and put them all together. My problems were do to a lack of understanding the newer anti tamper code that has been added to the firmware...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
Make sure the "Re-Partition" checkbox is NOT checked. Unless you've done something to destroy the partition layout of your phone, you should not need to repartition it.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
Didn't I just answer this?

Why do you think you were on ME7?

Also, what did the phone display when the flash failed?

Chances are that you need to flash MJ7 or MK2 to recover this, but since you didn't post the details it's hard to tell you what to do.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] spence1322:
Yes you did answer this on my thread!

I don't know what ME7 really is so I just go along with what others say through here.

The phone displays is the top left in red:

START [224, 1440]

SW REV. CHECK FAIL : fused : 5 , Binary : 3

What details do you need?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
"Fused: 5" - you have a MJ7 or MK2 phone. Try flashing The no-wipe ROM from here. If that doesn't recover, flash an emergency MJ7 ROM.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blulightning:
I tried doing that, but I can't see the zip file in the PDA section at all...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
I re read this thread and didn't see any other information about exactly what it is you're trying to do. If your trying to use Odin to flash back to stock though you want to unzip the file and get the .tar file and put that into the PDA slot. Also the person you quoted.. I'm not sure what they were referring to either. Recoveries and Stock images are all .tar files ( unless there's something I'm forgetting ) but I've used Odin quite a bit and never used a .zip in Odin directly. You usually use .zip from within recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blulightning:
It's all good, turns out the file I was using wasn't working with it for some reason. Found I no-wipe one flashed it and it worked!

Team Win Recovery Project 2.6, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added a lot of our own features. It’s a fully touch driven user interface – no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

Ok, Correct me if i'm wrong..

First i need to d/l twrp recovery.

Then I need to head to htcdev's site and unlock the device..

After that, I enter Fastboot by holding "Volume down+Power key" correct?

The last few steps im confused, I'm assuming it has to do with plugging phone into pc and doing commands? If at all possible, Can we get step by step on this part? Thanks!

thanks for this, took a little time to get it to work but it was because the phone would not connect to the computer in fastboot when connected to a usb3 slot. If you are having issues try switching to a usb 2 port. took me about a half hour to figure out that this was the problem lol. I am using windows 8.

I was quite the fan of your toolkit when I used the at&t One. It's quite a time saver, and recommend it for everyone. I'm certainly not a noob. I've been doing this since the HTC Hero, and I consistently find myself pulling up your toolkit rather than running adb scripts myself.

Hey bro I see you answering lots of questions.. so I only used twrp from my evo days I have 3.0 can't get 4.4 to flash for nothing. Can you point me so i can fig out what this cherry picker is ? I would be greatful for your time.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Chilidog:
Well, the cherry pick means that he added the certain thing to allow 4.4 flashes from the older twrp version to avoid the bug in the newest one. I personally use 3.3 because it's not that big of a deal. You can check his website for the 3.0 twrp but I don't think the one he has uploaded includes the cherry pick.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Tigerstown:
I tried 3.3 today flashed 4.4 no problems. Went back to twrp couldn't backup just got failed. Yea the .img file 3.0 I have definitely don't have the cherry pick. O well I Will fastboot cwm till I can fig out how to make a backup in twrp. I seem santod post something bout how to fix I believe I was reading thread at work. I had no charging problem when phone was off on 3.3 tho only one I have is can't backup nothing which I'm bout to fire up Linux an get searching. You said check his site?

Ya I can make backups. You should make sure your backing them up to the right place too. Also if you switch to cwm then the backups you did in twrp won't work.

Well, I ran into this problem tonight. Battery was burnt down to zero (fell asleep before plugging it in for the night). Device wouldn't turn on or indicate any charging was happening.

Glad that someone posted the 10-20 second power button solution.

Held for 20 long seconds before I saw a boot screen, then charging resumed.

Immediately flashed back to previous version of twrp, and all good now.

Just thought I should let you all know that the bug is replicatable (if there were any doubts).

Thanks again for posting that fix.

I tried searching this thread so hopefully this is not an unneeded post.

I am having trouble with my installations of cm10.2. Every single nightly will fail, but I can restore a backup. I have not tried installing any other jelly bean roms, but I can install the cm11 rom that I have on my phone.

Does anyone have suggestions.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] major_works:
For whatever reason, it seems that recent nightlies of CM 10.2 install OK with the latest Clockwork Mod. To update CM 10.2, I flashed CWM, then flashed the 12/2 nightly. I like TWRP a lot better so I reflashed it and I'm good to go. At least until I want another CM 10.2 nightly.

Hmmmm. Ok thanks a lot. I figured that it was nothing I was doing so I am glad to have someone else tell me im not just stupid.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Law Ninja:
I wasn't as fortunate getting my phone to turn back on and charge. Even with it plugged in I held the power button for minutes and nothing happened.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mercer24:
I updated TWRP to 2.6.3.4 and tried to install JoelZ9614 new [ROM]Google Edition HTCOneVZW[KitKat]. I think the file I downloaded of the ROM was bad so I attempted to restore my previous backup. I used TWRP and everything said it was good to go but seemed to lag when I went to reboot. It rebooted and stayed on the HTC Logo screen for 20 minutes without doing anything. I tried a few more times just to make sure it wasn't anything I did. I had to go into fastboot and push TWRP 2.6.3.0 to get everything back in working order. After I reverted back to 2.6.3.0 the restore worked and booted up fine. I don't know if this was something I did wrong or its on the TWRP side. What do you think?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Flyhalf205:
Probably need to backup using 2.6.3.4. It does have selinux turned on so could be why. I haven't tried restoring my 2.6.3.0 backup yet.
