Galaxy s4 M919 OS problem - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I have a galaxy s4 M919. And I installed the optimized linageos 14.1 version 12 (thread link). It was working fine. But I tried to root my phone with odin and seemed like I was succeeded and after rooting, phone was reBooting. That rebooting process never ended (waited 7 hours). Phone showed samsung logo first and after that linageos animated logo continuously, phone was not hanged. Pulling out battery doesn't help. Pic below. (In the linked thread above, see comments #8575 to #8578). My personal belief it is happening 16 gb space probably run out, although I did emptied everything before installing.
1. Now what should I do? I want to use a stable os higher than 6.0, hopefully with root. Is that possible? Help me details how to install as all root options in recovery mode are gone. Even before that I want to format my internal 16 gb clean. Please help and TIA. or
2. In before I did backup my stock rom 4.4 with rom manager app, just with 2 or 3 clicks, and copied the folder in pc. How do I even use it? Pic below.

UPDATE : I have successfully installed my stock rom 4.4 on device. Rooted as well.

Galaxy S3 LTE i9305 Soft-/Hardbrick

Hey,
I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE (i9305) at the moment, on which I tried to install TWRP and CM13.
At first the installation of TWRP did not work - after that, the SIM card didn't work as the cellphone made a restart into the system.
After a little bit of research (and a few videos on YouTube) I managed to install TWRP and installed CM 1 3 (unofficial) on my phone.
After a restart my phone was stuck in bootloop - the CM logo was only shown at the start and did move.
I made a factory reset after that and tried to install TWRP again, this time with CM 11 (official) - with the same problems as before.
After I installed CM 11, Windows shortly recognized the phone when it booted - but I don't know, if my PC would have recognized the others too (Windows just played the sound it does, when a new device is connected)
The TWRP version is 3.0.2-1.
Any idea what I could try now?
Thanks in advance!

Leagoo m8 pro random rebooting problem

hi tech gurus, am having problem with this device, the device details are:
name: leagoo m8 pro
Android version: 6.0
ram:2GB
ROM:16Gb
chip: Mt6737M
processor:armv7
SDK:23
HOW THE PROBLEM STARTED
on the night of the day I bought the phone I decided to root it because I wanted to change the font and of course use xposed modules, I successfully rooted the phone, changed font successfully with ifont, now the only left is to install xposed framework, so I read all the info at the xposed thread, to know more about my device I downloaded CPU z, and mobile uncle, which said my device arm version is just arm.
I down xposed flashable zip in the arm category, which is v87, and it's The latest their till now.
I flash the zip file, everything went successfully via twrp v3.1.1 then I clicked reboot, phone switched off came on and displayed the white leagoo text, it was stucked there for like 12mins I coudnt wait any longer, so I removed and inserted the battery booted into twrp and wiped the cache, data, system and davilk cache, nvram, and click reboot but twrp said no ROM installed.
Guys I have no other option thab to flash the stock ROM, which I did, am sure I did it the right way, I used
sp flash tool v5.1
leagoo freemos V3.06(downloaded from leagoo website)
after flashing it showed green good mark, I rebooted the phone, as soon as the setup screen appeared the phone rebooted again..... till it long enough to allow me finish the setup.
guys as am typing with the phone am still experiencing the rebooting problem.
sometimes it will just random reboot,
or music will crack and reboot especially when the screen is off.
I have tried every thing I could, such flashing custom recovery even flashing earlier official stock ROM of the phones all to no avail
pls tech gurus help me, I just bought this phone
the highest up time I ever got on this phone is just 9 hours
thanks

Screen off after initial boot - Redmi 5 plus - on Custom Rom

I flashed a Redmi 5 plus with lineage 17 successfully then i rooted it. I wanted to install Revolut and other banking apps but they don't work with root so tried to unroot but was not possible as it got corrupted so reflashed it back to stock rom android 8.1 and worked fine.
I tried again to flash Lineage 17, 16 and also Paranoid Android but each time I boot put the screen turns off. The boot seems to start up but the screen is off.
I reflashed it back to stock rom and it gave me an error on startup saying "Find Device Storage Corrupted, Your Device is Unsafe Now" and keeps rebooting.
Any clues?

Have the same problem with my 5 plus, just keeps rebooting, also when the charger is not plugged it just shutdown before booting to bootanimation. Do you already solve yours? Can you help me?

[HELP][SM-G925F] Unable to get working 32GB firmware

Hi There,
My Main Issue:
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge SM-G925F, with a cracked screen, at 15% battery life the display is not usable, although anything after 25% it becomes usable and brightness levels from 60%~100% the device and screen is usable.
BIG issues:
Recovery Mode [Display Dead - But Active in Recovery Mode]
Download Mode [Display Dead - But Active]
Boot Screen and logo [Nothing but one flash on cracked side] - indicates OS boot
Work a rounds:
Watched YT videos of people in recovery and basically counted my way to wiping cache and dalvic etc [which worked once]
FIRMWARE Issues:
Samsung_SM-G925F_(G925FXXU6ESA1_G925FOJV6ESB1_South_Africa_v7.0)_by_(FirmwareOS.com) - Size: 1.9GB | Works But unable to boot
SM-G925F_1_20180530094301_nsue7o1m55_fac - Size: 4.9GB | Works but when installed only 16Gb assigned feels like the wrong firmware or dual sim or possible double os with backdoor
XFV-G925FXXU5EQL2-20180111184000 - Does not work without alterations.
Odin Version Used: 3.10, 3.10.6, 3.10.7, 13.14
1. When installing Samsung_SM-G925F_(G925FXXU6ESA1_G925FOJV6ESB1_South_Africa_v7.0)_by_(FirmwareOS.com) using odin, it completes with success although its unable to boot into the startup screen. (Most likely stuck on boot logo but unable to see).
2. When installing SM-G925F_1_20180530094301_nsue7o1m55_fac using odin, it completes and is able to boot and setup the device. My main issue is that this OS is double the size weird in app apps and the OS Storage is at 16GB and not 32GB.
Work Around:
I installed SM-G925F_1_20180530094301_nsue7o1m55_fac then at bootscreen entered download mode again and installed Samsung_SM-G925F_(G925FXXU6ESA1_G925FOJV6ESB1_South_Africa_v7.0)_by_(FirmwareOS.com), That installs with success and boots it sorts out the weird apps and works smoothly, only problem is now that storage is at 16GB and not 32GB still.
I have got XFV-G925FXXU5EQL2-20180111184000 working and installable although it is not worth the effort as the OS itself is missing major .com files.
I messed around to the point where i got it to 32GB although i flashed it to get to the working non sketchy size firmware Samsung_SM-G925F_(G925FXXU6ESA1_G925FOJV6ESB1_South_Africa_v7.0)_by_(FirmwareOS.com).
My Final Points:
Started googling how to build my own android rom, turns out that route is going to including a steep learning curve and a fast data connection.
Remembered XDA back when i used android 5 years ago and i must say this is a darn cool upgrade to XDA , tried to find a firmware failed
Found Linage OS, realized i cannot install that due to no sd card and no screen visibility in recovery mode.
Is there anyone with free time and the available tools required to create a proper bootable image for the SM-G925F perhaps stock 7.1 rom, or help me piece together a working one using multiple other firmwares.
Been mixing around with the images, then simply recreating the md5 files and the final combined.md5 would be used as the trial and error img.
Mission:
Trying to get this baby back up and running so that i could actually utlise it by installing linux etc as i do not need a screen to VNC or SSH
Thanks in advance
UPDATE:
New Firmware found:
ISSUES: Able to install although displays 16GB of storage still.
I was unable to install in stand alone from download as Odin got stuck at meta-data/foto.zip
After removing the meta-data i then remade the .tar.md5 and installed it using Odin
It was a success up until i checked the storage and it was incorrect. I then went to Settings and found those weird looking settings "Apps" setting doubled .

Help!!! I Messed Up. **FIXED***

So i've a galaxy note 5 sm-n920g,i know its kind of an old device but i use it mostly for calls,step tracker and heart monitor etc but recently the software in the stock OS started to glitch and some of the apps were not exactly running smoothly,so i decided to change stock OS to lineage OS i found here.The main problem starts from here so i've installed twrp 3.4.0 and magisk but the only problem is whenever i try to move the lineage OS and gapps files to my phone via pc, the process of copying files gets cancelled on its own (idk if its an issue with my cable or phone or a bug from windows 11) i even tried to flash OS via Odin but its no use as well as odin is stuck at boot.img for like 20-30mins now.Please help coz i accidentally deleted my stock OS without any backup. I must somehow get my phone running
