[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ande2k10:
Hi guys...

Now today was a total disaster..

my phone was getting slow and i decided hey, lets root the phone and install some new custom roms so i can get rid of them unessessary programs..

WELL... this is where it went totally wrong.

After trying to wipe the phone before installing the new custom rom and gapp, I by accidently removed the _WHOLE OS_ on the phone, and now all that I can do with it,

is boot it and when it boots it gets stuck on the Galaxy S4 screen at the very beginning..

Now I have no clue what to do and how to get my phone working again...

If there's anyone who could help me to get it up running again I would appreciate it Alot, and I mean ALOT.

My phone is Galaxy S4 GT-I9505.

Please someone help.

And as I said, the phone is totally empty ( I guess.... ) ?

Can you get into download mode? You need to go to Sam mobile and download your firmware and then use Odin 3.09 to flash it to your phone?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAX 404:
Hi mate,

It happens to all of us ...

Do you have installed a custom recovery yet? if so just pull out your external SD use an adapter or other phone copy the desire rom and gapps

put it back in your phone enter recovery and flash....

if not custom recovery do as [MENTION=4405010]parkerj7uc[/MENTION] said

yeahh, i can get into download mode, but the thing is that I don't have an SD card, so my phone is completely empty, nothing on my phone and I don't have a SD card to copy anything to...

So I guess i'm totally screwed then?...

I once made a mistake like this and seems like I didn't learn from it, but I got a link from someone to download the file from and just flash it with odin and the phone started working again.

Is there a way to still do this? and if so how do i find a link to get it from :s

I'm panicing here

OK Google on how to check a md5. Your md5 on your download needs to match the one in the website you got it from. It could be a bad download. If they match I recommend re doing the process. If they don't then you need to download it till they do.

Go to recovery do a factory reset and boot system again ( no flashing) , it will take a few min to boot first time (5 to 10 min)

No you have to flash the Samsung firmware first... either the one that came without or newer.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nico231995:
my phone is on NGH1 can i flash custom rom based on NF4?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svbarbosa:
Sure you can, but it will leave modem and bootloader newer versions intact, which is probably good.

And you can always use Odin to flash your Stock Rom back if you find some incompatibility.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BellaxMiu:
Once you have a custom recovery, you can flash anything you want except 4.3 custom ROMs due to incompatible bootloader's boot structure.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vndnguyen:
There is no common answer for this question, coz

It depends on what custom rom.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nico231995:
do you mean that if my firmware is GNH1 then i flash custom rom based on NF4 my firmware and baseband is same on GNH1?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svbarbosa:
When you flash via recovery on the Note 3 it usually will not touch bootloader and modem.

If you flash a Stock Rom using Odin and your phone is also on a stock rom it will update bootloader and modem.

And yes, if you move from 4.3 to 4.4 there is no way back to 4.3. It should not be a concern since all good and actively kept roms are on 4.4.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YamiGG:
Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 from ATT and I rooted my phone about 4 months ago using a downgrade to MK2 method.

Everything was working fine until I had one app (Puzzles and Dragons, japanese version) that apparently doesn't like it when SuperSU is on. I turned SuperSU off, only to realize that I had to change the Superuser.apk file in /system/app as well (i don't know why but this app hates on superuser). Now since /system/app files are all read only, I need root access again to modify the file name. However, when I start up SuperSU again, it tells me there is no SU binary installed, and that I need to manually re-root.

I'm trying to find a way around this, and a couple of people said to boot into recovery and install the .zip file for SuperSU. I went ahead and downloaded SuperSU-v2.02.zip, and put it on my phone, and booted into Safestrap recovery. When I try to install it, it says "unable to mount '/system'" and "unable to mount '/systemorig'"...

Another round of google-ing. Apparently Clockwork Mod Recovery (CWM) is the solution. But now that I've disabled SuperSU, I no longer have root access, so CWM doesn't work!

****. Do I really have to manually re-root? Every time I root using the downgrade-root-upgrade-keeproot method I wipe everything on my phone, and I'd really like to not wipe my phone. Is there a way around this?

TL;DR: I'm looking for a fix to any of the following:

1. no SU binary installed

2. unable to mount '/system' and '/systemorig'

3. rooting NC1 that doesn't wipe all of my data

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Towelroot saves the day. Still working on getting P&D Japanese to work.

Hi guys, this is my fist thread but I've been reading this forum for... I don't know, maybe 2 years.

Well, I have an issue that I can't resolve. I have to reset my phone a lot of times until "catch" the signal and the data connection. And sometimes the phone have signal but doesn't have data connection and the apn disappear...

The problem is presented as follows:

- Reboot my phone: no signal and the network operator is "UNKNOWN|MOVISTAR" (movistar is the brand the f*cking company). This is the most common.

- Reboot my phone: signal and the network operator is "MOVISTAR|MOVISTAR", I can receive and send messages and I can do calls too but the phone doesn't have data connection and the apn configuration is blank and I can't add any apn configuration because this no save any change.

- Reboot my phone: signal and data connection works fine, the network operator is "MOVISTAR", the apn configuration is right, I can change and save any change. This is the less common =S

I've tried:

- baseband V10A/B/H. V20A/B

- a lots of differents rils

- a lots of roms (just works fine with JB roms and stock)

- 2g and 3g

Well... that's my problem and I can't resolve it... Sometimes I want change my phone because this is a f*cking sh*t.

Sorry for my english. If you dont understand something, please, let me know.

thx so much!!

Bye.

It doesnt need to be "at the same time", it can be alternated, but the fact that they both use the same COMs ends up giving me an error in the connection...

Can I change the COMs 4 and 5 to 6 and 7 inside my magician?

The phone is running the bada OS and like I mentioned I have found the links to download the files but the actual sites are down.

For example this link:

I have desperately searched for the files on google but the download links have expired or do not work.

Hello, everyone. My brother has an S4 i9505 and when the background is light (e.g. white, grey), the Google keyboard is slightly visible. Does anybody else have this problem? I believe it couldn't be a hardware issue, since it isn't visible on a dark background. Also he tried capturing it on a snapshot, but it doesn't show on a snapshot.

I have attached a picture, but you have to really focus if you want to see it. It's on the lower side of the screen, just like the usual keyboard place.

To get some charge and boot again, i have to enter on screen that you can choose between recovery or factory mode and stay there for a while.

Your ROM is working fairly well on my Micromax Canvas Doodle 2 A240. The only problem I'm facing is that when I connect my phone to laptop it reflects of installing a "software" onto the computer and then it fails, due to which I'm not able to transfer files (I guess that's the only reason). Apart from this great UI and smooth performance till now...flashed the ROM yesterday.

Hey guys, so I have the CEO of my company phone which is a Note 3 on Verizon. I pushed out an ActiveSync Policy yesterday which has the following settings:

* Require Password

* Enable password recovery

* Allow simple password

* Minimum password length: 4

* Time without user input before the password must be re-entered: 2 minutes

He stated that he didn't put a password in... ಠ_ಠ - So I tried put him back to the old policy. I tried the Recovery Password that I found in exchange using: "Get-ActiveSyncDeviceStatistics -Mailbox:"jbrown" -ShowRecoveryPassword:$true" but that password does not work.

Is there any way to reset the passcode without wiping the device?

Also if you have any suggestions on 3rd party apps to not have this happen in the future on other devices, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,
