[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ogtwizsfv:
THANK!YOU OK guys once again and at the same time, in advanced, THANK!YOU

so i am in serious need of some help or someone to just give it to me straight and just put me out of my misery. its been a couple weeks now and ivr put in huge amounts of time trying to search out a solution. Now it's just cruel, if I were and animal they would have put me down weeks ago

I already apologize, I'm going to do my very best to keep this short ( as possible ) and to the point, I have a tendency ( more like debilitating compulsive disease ) of rambling while simultaneously over descriptive, and my effin' phone is broken!!! Give me a break. Ok here we go I promise

This is my first thread / post, believe me I have searched independently, finding a TON on parts but no real conclusion or fix, or of it was there I meed my hand held. So I am, was, running a Verizon galaxy s4, rooted (king root), lollipop 5.1.1

Situation of my phone right now

Ultimately the phone won't boot past the Verizon logo / loading screen, whatever that phase ( if it even is one ) is called. No amount of time has done anything for it. It leaves me with only 3 different options ( attempting to boot normally being the first )#2 I can get info "Odin mode" <holding Vol Down + Power + Home>as its named at the top of the prompt. Where basically I've deduced that it's trying to update or install a custom operating system, from where? I'm not sure, the cloud I reckon, since it warns me not to turn it off and I dont have it plugged in, or anything else provided for it to do much of anything, don't think I even downloaded Odin that I know of. I'm thinking I forgot to mention I do not have access to a computer currently. Quick update: or I just forgot to mention but if you haven't guessed it, I have no immediate access to a computer, and while I'm here I also was not far enough to save a backup. Thanx

continuing. . 3rd and final pathway open to me Recovery Booting<holding Vol Up + Power + Home> I'm sure you guys know the one, where I have tried every option ( more than twice ) to, unnecessary to say I'm realizing, no avail. Had even come to terms with what appeared to be my only hope in sigbt and attempted the wipe / factory boot. And if that worked and changed anything I guess I misunderstood the whole concept of factory wipe. So that's about where I stand currently.

Events leading up to disaster. ..

I was in the overall process of installing xpose of course! I had already performed a successful Root thanks to kingroot, verified with root checker. Had moved onto the slow going process of learning to get TWRP going, here's where it starts to get a little messy... So it goes without saying that I was having.. let's say difficult time with TWRP. I went through one of the pains of the overall process and located my version of framework ( or so I had thought, quite a few people thought actually ( ok so thinking back on it I never really looked at the date on any of the threads so this whole chain of events could have been last year for all I know, and I just started at the beginning and got the full ride and experience everything those in this community running lollipop 5+ had to go through. And when I say chain of events I'm talking about the first rounds of xposed for Samsungd and lollipop. And the nightmare left in its wake. Evident in the step by step UPs and DOWNs left in the threads) so being not 100% correct i had the right framework I put that on hold awaiting a few replies. I then began to attempt twrp once again, this time for a backup . Once again I found myself hating twrp. Defeated I put it all aside for a few days.. upon retire I began reading up on everything all over again. Came across a very helpful ( helpful now, very much not so in the time I'm currently speaking of ) app I bought "Super-Sume". Which sounded like it was going to help out and make things not only easier but get me back on track and going in the right direction again. Well somehow as it was performing it's first stage of removing kingroot and all the extra goodies that they have been accused of adding in as well, the app froze. Not sure I I froze exactly but it had not moved or gained any progress in quite a while, I believe some or most of this to be caused, I recently found out as I was attempting the whole adventure over again on another ( older, less expensive) phone. The one I'm currently on. Just a galaxy lite or something. But come to find out you cannot use the latest , or those after like 4.90 versions of kingroot, or the super-sume won't work, and possibly do what it did to me maybe? ?? But after it froze or whatever it restarted when I shut if off and we find ourselves having come around full circle now.

Once Again ! Thank You I really just want to thank those of you that made it all the way through this never-ending thread. Just being dedicated / motivated enough to get this far, gives me high hopes we will be able to get through this ! The hard parts over, right?

Once Again ! Thank You
