Hello All and Merry Christmas,
I have a Note 2 that is 100% factory and started having a boot loop, it only got to Samsung screen and then rebooted.
I flashed via ODIN TWRP and tried to put a few roms on the device, now I dont have a boot loop I just have a hang at samsung however its not frozen as the letters are moving indicating its still processing.
I wanted to try to flash a rom via odin instead of TWRP, and can not find any in that format.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Regards,
Force
Hello,
today I tried to install the new cyanogenmod 11.0 rom on my ace II (I8160), but I ended up bricking it.
At first I rooted it and it still worked ok, then I installed a custom recovery and used it to install this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2555021 . It worked but I wasn't able to make or receive phone calls. So next I tried to go back to stock by using odin to flash the original rom (I8160XXLH3_I8160OXXLH2_ITV, which should be italian gb) but now the phone won't boot anymore.
Currently, I can still get the phone to boot in odin mode and I can flash any stock rom, but I can't boot it in recovery mode or in normal mode. When I try to do so, the phone just stops at the screen with "Samsung GALAXY Ace 2 GT-I8160" written on it.
Do you know a way to get it to boot normally or should I just buy a new phone?
Nevermind I fixed it by installing the following files via odin:
PIT: GT-I8160_EUR_XX_4G.pit
AP: CODE_I8160XXMB4.tar
CSC: CSC_OXA_I8160OXAMB4.tar
and then installing a stock 4.1.2 rom
Tmobile Galaxy S4 (SGH-M919) Non-rooted
Problem:
The phone was working and then suddenly went into boot loop. The Samsung screen displays and right before it would goto the animation screen, it loops. I can get to download mode and the recovery OS.
What I've tried:
- First thought it was power button, sent it away to replace button but tech says it's not power button. The phone doesn't turn itself on when the battery is inserted. I can use the power button to turn on/off the phone fine.
- Cache wipe
- Factory reset
- Kies update/recovery
- Burn different firmware version (NB4, NH7, NK2, OH3)
- Tried just to burn NB4 twice consecutively without reboot (first time OK. when burn second time w/o reboot, the phone would display error saying the percentage completed is incorrect since it just finished 100%. Odin continues to burn to finish fine.)
Nothing seems to work. It still loops.
I am desperate. Please help! Thanks in advance.

An update:
I tried CF Root and was able to get past he first Samsung screen, past the white TMobile screen, but it went back to boot loop again. Don't know what else to do. Any suggestions?
By burn do you mean you odin'd official stock rom? You cannot downgrade after 4.2.2 MDL so if you flashed OH3 then NB4 will not work anymore...just flash oh3 and root it. For root you can either flash recovery through odin then fash supersuBETA via recovery. Or (if you dont have a computer near you) use kingroot then push recovery through terminal emulator, then run remove kingroot app (google it) then flash supersu through recovery.

I've tried flashing OH3 (twice) also. It still boot loops. Then I tried CF Root to see if it does anything. It flashes fine with no problem. It still boot loops.
I can get into download mode and recovery without problem. It just won't let me past the boot loop.
Try different versions of odin/usb cables and reflash. Or and this voids WARRANTY. Put TRWP on your phone and try a different kernel or OS.

update:
- I've tried different odin versions (3.07,3.09,3.10). I've tried different USB cables. There was no indication on any error during the flashing process.
- I can flash any stock ROM after NB4 (anything before NB4 => Odin fail). After flashing stock ROMS, it can never get past the Galaxy S4 screen. It just boot loop.
**** I tried to download the OH3 stock rom from Sammobile but I always get a corrupt file error in Winrar. Can someone verify if the OH3 ROM on Sammobile is error free?
- I've tried TWRP (2.6.0.0, 2.6.3.1, 2.8.4.0). I've used it to flash CM-12.1 and Darthstalker_S4_V3 ROMs.
- After flashing all the custom CM ROM, it got stuck with the pink screen.
- I get nothing from Darthstalker ROM, just blank.
I am so frustrated with this process. It seems that I am doing something wrong in my process to flash the ROMs. I am missing something.
Can you please list ALL the steps necessary to properly flash a ROM? Please list every single step that you would personally take, no matter how insignificant (remove battery, clear cache, settings, etc.). Just treat me like a 1st grader.
Thanks so much.
Another update...
- So far, I've tried to flash stock ROMS (NB4-OH3) with odin. None of the stock ROMs will boot fully. All stuck at Samsung logo and bootloops from there.
- The best, but not fully functional, solution I've found so far is from:
1- Flash stock rom NH7 (tried NB4,NH7 so far) with odin
2- Flash CF auto root (CF-Auto-Root-jfltetmo-jfltetmo-sghm919.tar.md5) with odin
3- Flash CWM for recovery
4- boot into recovery, from CWM, install cm-11-20140110-SNAPSHOT-InstallerXNPQ02R-jfltetmo-signed.zip from sdcard1
5- From CWM, install gapps kk for 4.4.3 from sdcard1
6- Clear dalvik, format data + cache
It'll boot up fine. However, I get no sound (not from speaker or headphone). Google keyboard keeping turn on and off. The camera doesn't work. Video's cannot be played.
info "about phone":
Model: SGH-M919
Android version: 4.4.2
Baseband version: M9191UVUFNH7 (prob from CF auto root ?)
Kernel version: 3.4.0 cyanogenmod
Cyanogenmod version: 11.0-installer-XNPQ02R
Build date: 1/9/14
Build number: cm_jftetmo-userdebug4.4.2 KOT49H-installerXNPQ02R release-keys
Don't know what to do now. I've no idea why it won't take stock ROMs. I don't know why I am having problems in cyanogenmod. I freakin hate working on these phones.
Any ideas? suggestions? PLEASE!
Flash philz cwm touch recovery with your current recovery. Then use philz recovery to flash this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-tmobile/development/moving-please-post-t3009561.

Update:
-OK. I tried using philz cwm and burned this ROM but went through the installation process and picking choices. However, it wouldn't even boot.
-I decided to open up the phone to verify I had a SGH-M919. The sticker underneath the battery indicated SGH-M919. The phone has been using and updating OTA with T-Mobile firmware, the latest being OH3 with stagefright fix.
-After I removed the motherboard, what I saw underneath was disturbing. There was one big stamping showing "I337", which is AT&T. Many other stampings on the chips also show I337.
-In download mode, the product name indicated "SGH-M919".
So the question is, do I have a I337 or M919 phone? Currently, I cannot flash or install any firmware that is not for M919. I tried flashing ATT stock rom (I337ATTFNB1) with odin but it failed, indicating many errors such as PIT. I tried installing CM 11 for ATT but it also failed indicating that I need jfltetmo (M919) version. Ever since the bootloop problem, I cannot get the phone to boot with stock M919 roms.
