Help with bricked phone. - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Just bricked my phone, new to all this stuff. Trying to repair it with odin, no luck. can anyone hit me up on skype and help me out? skype = wakfuyap
I can get into download mode, but I can't boot the phone normally. Simply want to revert to stock and go from there. Tried numerous different md5 files through odin, they crash when I try to load them, usually while trying to write NAND? I would like some help over skype, I can pay you if you get my phone working and can walk me through it, thanks.

You need NK1

I don't Skype but that's how to do it hope it helps

first steps aren't available to me, there are no options, it goes straight to the screen asking me if I want to do download mode by pressing volume up. I can get to download mode, when I try to load the md5 file via odin it fails every time, I have tried many different md5 files. some times it is an AUTH problem, sometimes NAND problem. Why is this so complicated? Why can't somebody just give me clear instructions that work? I can get to download mode, I can launch odin. I need a file that works and to know which boxes need to be checked.

I have done it did you download the Verizon nk1 file from the link in the post? That's where I got my files ......... Shizz its probably the version of Odin you are using try 1.85 I never have problems with that one but the others are sometimes hit and miss if you have the right files and its recognized by Odin then it has to be the Odin version you are using I have about seven different versions but I only use 1.85
---------- Post added at 03:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:44 AM ----------
Boxes just leave the same don't check flash lock that's for sure
---------- Post added at 03:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:44 AM ----------
If its in a tar.Md5 then it does not need to be extracted also

I have tried the older version of ODIN you recommended, 1.85 and the md5 file you gave me the link to. It doesn't work either, it will fail at some stage that says AUTH, which is what happens on the others, sometimes at the NAND part. fails very quickly, 3-4 seconds into it after I hit start. Anyone else have any advice? Is there another method besides ODIN because that seems like a bunch of nonsense to me, since I have tried about every version of ODIN and md5 file listed on these forums.

I have the same issue on my SCH-I545 that was running 5.1 Lollipop OF1. I flashed it back to OC1 and rooted the phone. I then flashed back to OF1 and everything was working perfect. My ultimate goal though was learn and to install custom roms but with the boot loader being locked on Lollipop you are limited to what you can install. So reading through forums I saw that there are a lot of people running @stang5litre custom rom. I found and followed the instructions after reading through almost the entire 300+ page thread. I did it exactly how it was posted but after the rom flashed and rebooted the phone would just hang on the custom boot screen. I waited like @stang5litre has said (for up to 15 min.) when it still didn't reload I pulled the battery and rebooted again. It still just hangs on the custom boot screen. I have re-flashed OF1 and OC1 with the same results.
Can I flash back to 4.4.2 like @Joker1716 is saying above? I thought once you have upgraded to Lollipop you can't revert back.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I bet FF moved wipe to at the end. Which is why your not booting. You have to set it twice with FF or it moves wipe to the end. This is a known bug with FF. Before you hit the bolt make sure the order is correct and you will boot up fine. Happy to help you

Thanks for the quick reply @stang5litre....I did move wipe back to the front as I read to do so in your thread. But now the phone will not get past the custom boot screen even after I've re-flashed the OF1 & OC1 files. Do I have any other options on fixing this phone? I don't have a problem buying a new one as I've had this for a while but I really hate to give up on this if there is away to get it back up and running.

What were you originally on(base)? If your not mdk then you cantt use TWRP.
You would need to Odin back to what you came from re root and then go through the the process. But I need to know what base you were on when you rooted.

[Q] Lost Internet after flash

I was trying to flash an updated version of the ROM i had, but a verizon message came up, essentially telling me my bootloader was still locked. I looked it up, and the fix is supposedly flashing it back to stock, which I tried, but it has no internet connection (wifi or service) and it loaded the ROM i had been trying to install earlier.
I double checked my model number, to see if that did anything, and it's changed from what it was when I flashed the first ROM, so i tried flashing the firmware for that model, but Odin just gives me a fail message for that, so i can get my ROM to run, but my internet is borked, and I can't get it back to stock to see if that fixes it.
Because I can't get internet access it's screwing up a lot of my attempts to fix it, and my computer refuses to read it, so I can't do anything from that end.
Also, while my WiFi refuses to turn on (switch pops back to grey after trying to turn it on) my service bars act like they're receiving, changing up and down, but they're greyed out and the carrier name is 'Empty'.

Original Build: if you mean what I was using before flash, I can't find the link to it, it was one of the first stock android ROMs for the GS4. If you mean prior to that, it was the standard Samsung TouchWiz the GS4 comes with.
I was trying to flash the ROM found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2340783
I flashed it using TWRP > wipe data/cache, factory reset > install zip > wipe dalvik cache > boot. When that didn't seem to work, I tried flashing stock using Odin, as I can't get the zips onto my phone now.

I mean the last official build the phone was on before you started flashing. (MDK, ME7, MI1, MJ7 or MK2)
Did you ever take any OTA's?
When you say TWRP, do you mean TWRP with Safestrap or just TWRP?

Erm, I believe it was MDK, but I'm not certain, and I wouldn't know how to go about checking that retroactively if I could.

OK so if your phone was running Twrp, and not SafeStrap twrp, we can then probably assume your phone was on MDK.
What tar file did you use to Odin?

I don't know what you want exactly, the name of the file I tried to use to flash back to stock is 'SCH-I545_MD2_423399_Kernel.tar', I can't link because xda says I can't link outside sources until 10 posts, and I'm a tad new.

OK so that looks like the pre release kernel and not the stock firmware file. So that may explain why you're having issues still.

It has a very nice set of instructions that the first one I linked you to doesn't.
That links you to the no wipe MDK tar file. You should be OK to use that one.
Very important that you use the MDK file and not one of the others as those will lock your phone back up and no more custom recovery for you.
Its fairly easy. Let me know how I can help

If you run into problems with the no wipe tar files in the second link go and download the mdk tar file from
http://www.rwilco12.com/downloads.p...Galaxy S4 (Verizon) (SCH-I545)/Stock ROMs/TAR
And try that.
Make sure you're using a good USB cable as well.

I got my phone back to stock, made sure my internet was working, rooted it, installed TWRP, and everything worked fine, but I have a question that might be a bit out of the bounds of this post. When I tried to use TWRP to flash stock android onto it I get the message "Verizon has detected unauthorized software [etc]". This is linked to the bootloader, if I recall correctly, but I can't find some really good help with it.
Further help would appreciated, but what you've done already has helped me far more than I had hoped when I posted, so thank you, oh so much.

Ok so you're in TWRP and what file are you trying to flash exactly??
We use Odin to flash stock firmwares. And devs do make"stock ROMs" that can be flashed in twrp...so really I need to know what it isv exactly you're trying to do...

Urgent! Soft Brick or Hard Brick after installing Rom

Hi.
I have a Verizon Galaxy S4 upgraded to NC5 kitkat 4.4.2.
I was on Hyperdrive Rom 17.1 and I wanted to try out other roms so I installed the latest version of Chaos rom. I know how to install other roms because I've done so on other phones. So after I installed the rom all worked great. But after I rebooted my phone the phone wont go past the Samsung Galaxy S4 Splash. When ever I reboot it shows the splash then the screen goes black. I've spent hours trying to fix this. NOTE: I can go into Download Mode and Recovery Mode.
What should I do? Is there any method to fix this? Ive tried reinstalling normal stock via oden and the default recovery mode
Im stumped at this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You will need to boot into recovery and wipe everything except internal SD and factory reset. Surge has a thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2578209 with all of the ODIN files you will need. I'm not sure what you mean by "tried to reinstall normal stock with ODIN". Do you mean the ODIN flash failed or that the flash worked but you are still unable to access your phone?

Thanks for the reply!!!
How do I do that? I just go into the recovery and choose the wipe data option? And I only have the standard android recovery. I dont have SS or TWRP or CWM installed atm
And yeah Odin Flash failed. But I didnt use the MK2 files though. I used the NC5 files. Im not sure if that could be the issue but I'll give it a try.

Yes, boot into normal recovery and wipe data/cache/dalvik/factory reset then try the ODIN flash. You can try the full wipe method to get back to NC5 right away but you may need to start at MK2.

Alright. But it only shows wipe data/factory reset.
I assume this is it though.
Again thanks for the help!

It didnt work
I followed TheTechGuys method and I failed on both attempts .
What am I supposed to do?
I followed it and when it says it fails its completely normal then when I put in the other tar and uncheck the re partition box it still fails me.
What should I do?

The only thing that has ever worked for me when I see that screen is to try to install firmware through KIES it will fail but it seems like it puts some sort of driver on your phone that allows ODIN to work. That may make no sense but I have gotten that stupid yellow triangle twice and KIES and then following the instructions, to the letter,on TechGuys thread worked both times.

If you are doing everything correctly on your end, I do not know why none of these methods are working for you. They have worked for me in the past.

[GUIDE][SM-N900P]Get on Lollipop ROM with SIM-unlock

I no longer have the Sprint Note 3, and unfortunately will not be actively maintaining this thread. If you would like me to add more, comment or PM me the ROM link. Thank you
Hello everyone! I've had some users ask me how to do this, so for those who may be in the same situation, here is a guide to get Android 5.0.1 on your Sprint Note 3 (SM-N900p), for users that are SIM-unlocked and are on a different carrier than Sprint. This has presented me a few problems before, as you cannot go past the MJ4 modem, without losing access to SIM-unlock. In my experiences, I could never get any 5.0+ ROMs to work on my Note 3, while still being able to use/recognize a SIM card from another carrier. I could not get this specific ROM to boot on NC5, so NH7 (possibly newer) bootloader is required. This guide is based solely my own experiences, and a few reported successful users as well. Your mileage may vary.
I will not take responsibility for any damage done to your device, do this at your own risk and free will.
Alright, shall we get started?
What you will need:
Odin (Mirrors everywhere, search for it)
If you are not on NH7 or newer bootloader, Grab NH7 Stock restore found here
Grab latest TWRP (2.8.5.0) here
If you have a modem newer than MJ4, grab MJ4 Modem here
Grab ROM:
a) AICP (Android Ice Cold Project) CM12.1-based ROM
AICP here You will need hlte version! Hltespr does not recognize sim card
b) DarkLord ROM (Note 4 port)
DarkLord Rom here
c) Phronesis ROM (note 5 port) :
Phronesis ROM here
Compatible Kernels for Phronesis ROM (grab hlte-spr versions):
c1 Idle Kernel
c2 DarkLord Kernel​
First and foremost: Make a nandroid backup in recovery. Save a copy of it to your PC, as well as a copy of your SDcard(s) for safe keeping.
Now that everything is backed up, and we have all of the necessary files listed above:
If you are already on NH7 bootloader, skip to step 8
1) Open up ODIN on PC and load NH7 stock restore into PDA slot (AP slot for newer versions of ODIN).
2) Do not check "auto-reboot" checkbox. If this is checked, click it once to un-check it.
3) Put phone into Download Mode (Hold 'vol. down' + 'power' + 'home' buttons while booting)
4) Connect phone to PC, there should be a light-blue box lit up with "COM:" + some numbers. This means Odin recognizes the device.
5) Click start button in ODIN to begin flashing. This will take a few minutes.
6) Once the flashing is finished, un-plug phone from PC and pull the battery out for ~10 seconds.
7) Boot straight into Download Mode again. Flash the NH7 file again in ODIN, exactly the same procedure as before. (Sorry, ODIN is picky sometimes, and this trick will get the flash to stick)
Your phone should now be on NH7 firmware, including the Modem and bootloader.
Now we need to get back on MJ4 Modem to be able to recognize the SIM-unlock once again (if you are already on MJ4 or older modem, skip to step 15):
8) Open ODIN on PC, and load MJ4 modem tar into PDA slot (AP slot for newer versions of ODIN)
9)Do not check "auto-reboot" checkbox. If this is checked, click it once to un-check it.
10) Put phone into Download Mode (Hold 'vol. down' + 'power' + 'home' buttons while booting)
11) Connect phone to PC, there should be a light-blue box lit up with "COM:" + some numbers. This means Odin recognizes the device.
12) Click start button in ODIN to begin flashing. This may take a few minutes.
13) Once the flashing is finished, un-plug phone from PC and pull the battery out for ~10 seconds.
14) Boot straight into Download Mode again. Flash the MJ4 modem file again in ODIN, exactly the same procedure as before. (Sorry, ODIN is picky sometimes, and this trick will get the flash to stick)
You should now have everything on NH7 firmware, with the exception of the MJ4 Modem needed for SIM-unlock.
Now we need a custom recovery to flash the ROM:
15) Open ODIN on PC, and load TWRP tar into PDA slot (AP slot for newer versions of ODIN)
16)Do not check "auto-reboot" checkbox. If this is checked, click it once to un-check it.
17) Put phone into Download Mode (Hold 'vol. down' + 'power' + 'home' buttons while booting)
18) Connect phone to PC, there should be a light-blue box lit up with "COM:" + some numbers. This means Odin recognizes the device.
19) Click start button in ODIN to begin flashing. This may take a few minutes.
20) Once the flashing is finished, un-plug phone from PC and pull the battery out for ~10 seconds.
21) Boot phone into recovery (Hold 'vol. up' + 'power' + 'home' buttons while booting).
22) Wipe system, data, cache, and dalvik cache
23) Flash ROM We should have everything on SDcard(s) still. If you do not, you may need to sideload ROM onto phone in recovery. Alternatively, you should be able to restore your backup and transfer it back to phone easily
24) PROFIT!!! Enjoy some Lollipop with your carrier of choice!

Mind if you could do a write up on her how you did Darklord's ROM? I saw you got the "...hlte v0.4.zip" working, but it was only "8.7MB". Did you flash that on top of Darklord's 2.0 or 2.1 or what? Thanks again!

Not a problem! Wish it could have been more detailed, but this worked for me, and seems to for others as well. So NH7 bootloader (or higher, confirmed now) will work as long as we keep MJ4 Modem.

I'm pretty sure it has to do with what country you live in. Correct me if I'm wrong.

DarkQueen 0.4 kernel works on Darklord 1.5. Just flash is over the rom. I can't remember anything special to do.
Darklord 2.0/2.1 comes with DarkQueen 0.4 kernel, so no need to flash kernel.
There is not much to write up. Just flash the rom and they all worked. You may need to tweak apn a bit. Some earlier version of TWRP has trouble with Darklord 2.0. I always use Phliz here. I'm staying with Darklord 2.1 for now. I might try out those two new roms from g00h, the pure stock N4 European rom and the customized Chinese leak N4 v3.5. I feel there is not much difference for me. What matters is stability and power efficiency, which is pretty hard to tell by individual unless there is something really off.

Thank you for sharing! The reason for the guide is because there is confusion about updating bootloader and being able to keep MJ4 modem (which seems to be key for us unlocked users)
Tweaked Note 4 port is what I've been running, it is pretty nice, but I agree sometimes you need to see for yourself and not take someone else's experience as definitive.
Do you mind linking darkRom for future readers that may be interested? I may give it a try as well

Hmm... Beyond my knowledge. Just to clarify, mj4 is the latest modem we can use with sim unlock. Any modem prior will work fine. Mind sharing some details on what ROM/version you are coming from before trying to flash mj4 modem? I will update OP.
Edit: were you mi3 bootloader when trying to flash mj4 modem? Like I said, I don't know alot about that error, but maybe you can't have higher version of modem than bootloader.

I was on NH7 when i tried to flash the MJ4 modem. And if i recall, MI3 is older than MJ4, so i don't know why it worked because i also thought it wouldn't with the NH7 bootloader. But the phone is now off my hands after 3 days of working to get it to unlock without some sort of boot loop.

So to be clear, this has nothing to do with US? This CSC? I seen that we (USA users) might need this on the Darklord ROM, or no? Have you tried what Shadow linked you? I've not made the jump to Darklord, but it looks like the battery is really a phenom on that ROM and I might try. I just don't know about the CSC editing

Alright, here is what I've experienced:
I am running g00hs tweaked note 4 port on my sm-n900p on straight talk service, without flashing CSC. I haven't had 1 single issue.
I flashed the ROM on my wife's sm-n900p, with sprint service, and could not for the life of me get data to work at all. I even flashed CSC code (TMB/T-Mobile USA CSC code) and still nothing. I think it has something wrong with CDMA networks. I could be wrong. So I restored her EFS partition so she was back on SPT CSC (Sprint USA code, what comes stock on her phone).
So all in all, I don't feel the CSC is necessary unless you have other needs for it. I personally still don't understand, or see the use of flashing CSC codes. Even though it is said to be necessary.
I have not tried DarkLord ROM yet, I am pretty content on what I'm using now. If you try it out, please feel free to share your details and experience

Thanks for the heads up, updated OP. Darklord link should be fine, i re-copied and pasted straight from thread, was the same as before.
Newer bootloaders should work, as long as you are on nh7 or newer (from my own, and other's reported experiences)

{Rooted} Cannot Boot Into Recovery Mode

So, recently I rooted my GS4 SCH-I545 and wanted to install a custom rom. I installed ROM Manager and tried to install a custom recovery, but overtime I would go into recovery, it would show a dying android with the message "No Command" on the screen, then It would take me to the stock recovery.
-------------------------------------------------------
Later I downloaded TWRP Manager and looked for a custom recovery there. I found one that seemed right and downloaded it. It rebooted my phone and instead of taking me to recovery mode, it took me to the ODIN downloading screen, but on top it said, "COULD NOT DO A NORMAL BOOT" and it said Downloading. The only way to get onto the phone was for me to go to ODIN and flash OC1 firmware onto the phone, and then it would boot up. Otherwise, now I cannot do a factory reset, and/or go into recovery mode.
Is there any possible solutions on how to get the phone back to normal?
-------------------------------------------------------
BTW: My Baseband or Boot-loader is: I545VRUGOF1

Ok then, but I have a few questions. First, what will this do to my phone? My next question is, will this brick my phone? Lastly, do I download the TAR, click the AP button on ODIN, click the TAR file, then flash it to my Phone?
---By the way, can you give me a link to the OF1 tar?
I have the OF1 ".tar.md5", also I can get you back to running prefect stock, then guide you thru the right steps to root and fix up your device!
