Help Soft Brick and cant find files needed

I was on the omni rom and decided to change my recovery when this happened.
It wouldnt boot past the samsung screen. I cannot get into recovery but I can get into download mode.
I know one possible fix is flashing the stock image through Odin but I cannot find the stock images. All the links are dead.
Anything will help.

Also if there is anybody willing to walk me through this real time, feel free to message me and we can chat on google hangouts.

What recovery are you using ?
Since you can get in to recovery, did you try restoring any of your previous backups ?
Are you already on 4,3 bootloader ?
You can download thr stock 4.3 firmware from here : http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=SGH-T889&pcode=0
You will need an account on sammobile though.

How did you flash T889UVALL4 ?
Most likely your phone is on a newer(4.3) bootloader and flashing an older bootloader caused the boot loop.
I am very certain that flashing 4.3 stock image will resolve this problem.

That might be it, since I was on 4.4.2 before. Do you know if there are better hosting sites for the download file because the ones on that site take 6 hours to download.

[KitKat OTA update but SG4 Rooted] trying to enable OTA with "TriangleAway" method

[KitKat OTA update but SG4 Rooted] trying to enable OTA with "TriangleAway" method
Hello everyone,
I'm posting today because I need some help like many others .
Here is my situation I bought a SG4 mini a year ago the GT-I9195 version (Europe France to be more accurate).
I rooted it because I needed to using the XDA method : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364980
I did not change the ROM so I'm technically still on the official 4.2.2 rom : JDQ39.I9195XXUAMG8 (see attachment "1.png")
I did however install the "CWM-Based Recovery v6.0.3.7 " boot system to have advanced boot features.
The OTA Kit Kat is now available in my country, I was hoping to do it using the OTA update directly from the phone, unfortunatly I receive the error message "your device has been modified software updates are not available" (see attachment "2.png").
My goal is to update to android Kit-Kat without having to re-format completely my phone to factory settings, and just trick the phone to make it think it's not "modified".
After doing some research I found an application that does this "Triangle Away : " http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/orig-development/2014-01-15-triangleaway-v3-26-t1494114
So after running it I discovered that the status of my phone was "Binary = Custom" and "System=Modified" (see attachment "3.png")
So I managed to reset the status of Binary and System to "Official" using triangle away (see attachment "4.png").
But when I try to do the OTA update I still get the "your device has been modified software updates are not available" message .
And when I go into phone status the "Device Status" phone says it's "Custom" even-though it says official in the triangle away app" (see attachment "5.png")
Can someone please help me figure this out ?
Thank you XDADEV and all the members for this great community, that has helped me so many times over the years !

TriangleAway is not supporting our device.
But anyway: I would suggest either updating with Kies or with Odin (if the Kitkat Firmware for your CSC is available at Sammobile.com).

But this imply that I will need to format the system completely

No, you don't!
You only need to root it again afterwards (with Towelroot - in case it still works - or using other methods like the Rootkit).

Thank you for that info i'm going to try it this afternoon.
I'm downloading the lastest firmware right now (http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=35387 ), is there any tutorial around for upgrading using Kies ?

The downloaded firmware has to be flashed with Odin. Upgrading firmware with Kies is very straightforward: install Kies, connect your phone via USB, Kies will check for updates, ...

I tried with Kies unfortunately, Kies doesn't find the new update which is strange, it tells me I already have the last firmware 4.2.2 which is from last year (see attachment).
I will use Odin, I just hope it won't erase all my apps, homescreen, app settings ...

Yes I actually have it installed on my phone as root, but I only used it once because I needed to restore some backup for angry birds.
Lol I forgot about it I guess I can use it to backup and restore everything I never use it like that before.
Thank you for the tip I'll look how to backup everything first and restore it after.
But I'll need to be root to restore after I guess ?
I don't have the "pro version"

Yes your phone has to be rootet to restore your backups, but it's really worth it to buy the pro version.

If you're updating to KitKat, you will loose everything with Odin.
I suggest that you backup everything with TB and after upgrading, do not restore everything! You will have errors because upgrading from JB to KK. So, you should install everything as it was from Google Play, then restore the data of the app to avoid problems.
Good Luck!
Press THANKS if I helped!

There's isn't much of a 'visible' upgrade from JB to KK, but there are 'behind the scenes' updates, which are very good.

I use the one attached. Been using it for more than a year.
Open it, press PDA, and insert the .tar.md5 file you downloaded. Be sure your phone is read and is in Download Mode and start. It will take 9:30mins to complete the process (sometimes more, sometimes less) and some more minutes to completely boot up.
Good Luck.

Hey guys, I know a lot of us has been stuck with paper weights since we messed up flashing our phones thinking the L710 and L710t were the same... sooo, if you lost your imei and baseband unkown and no network and no audio and all these issues and just want to go back to stock.. you've come to the right place.
Remember this is for the sprint sph l710T .... note the T for triband lol
Step 1. Download Odin (search google)
Step 2. .tar file from here (https://mega.co.nz/#!cBBDEBpJ!t5IAcCaMg2w7GDI0zhhmZw0e7jh0Uv0v4gJpsH8gb6o)
put this in to odin in the pda section (note: if the file gives an md5 mismatch of some sort, remove (.md5) from the extension to leave the .tar)
step 3. put your phone in download mode... flash that shiiiiii, be patient and profit!
youre very welcome

yep i can verify i had to get this version cause the charging port on my phone died and according to the site it came from it should work across the board with Sprint, Boost, and Virgin Sph-L710T

I made a flashable zip that De-Odex the stock rom https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95832962473400340 check it out if you want but read the description

Great news, thanks to all who made this happen!
I'm a novice at this, If I flash this .tar my phone will no longer be rooted, correct?

Copy that. Out of curiosity, it appears most people need this .tar because they lost their baseband / modems after installing a different rom. Wouldn't it be easier to just flash the L710T NF4 modem firmware? I downloaded it and was going to try it with a few roms that were messing with my baseband. Thoughts?

Will this work for SPH-L710T on Virgin Mobile?
Because this happened to my friend on her's: http://androidforums.com/threads/sph-710t-deleted-google-play-services.887991/
TLR=She deleted Google Play Services and her phone is all kinds of screwed up, factory reset didn't help the phone refresh the system file on its own, so either I need the stock .tar OR someone to upload me their Google Play Services system app (my Stratosphere II's usually works once but I think Google Play tries to update it and it fails and then all the problems start again)

Firmware Update M8 Rogers

Hi, I've talked of this before. The firmware update, I tried returning to stock then attempting to update the firmware through updating the software OTA but that failed no matter what I did. I returned to stock, flashed the stock recovery, and even locked the bootloader. And finally I attempted an RUU but the RUU failed. So now I lost all my data in vain. I rooted the phone again and reflashed it to Insert coin android 4.4.4, ect.. And I currently am really tired of this. Isn't there any way to get through this? I want the new Insert Coin Lollipop but I have S-ON and cant update the firmware. Can someone please help me? It would be really appreciated. Thanks for reading this lousy comment.

I don't know anything about Insert Coin. But if you want stock lollipop from Rogers, you could restore a Nandroid backup via TWRP.

For a start, post your fastboot getvar all (without serial no. and imei no.)
Then most probably the nandroid that ikeny mentioned is the right backup.

I'd be more worried about the RUU failing - I wonder what the error code was?

If OP's M8 was Rogers branded, CID ROGER_001, then RUU from Rogers never existed in the first place. Perhaps this explains the error.

I'm actually kinda wondering, is there a method to update to lollipop without returning to stock? I don't have S-OFF so I cant update the firmware alone.

You don't need the img file now. That was the stock recovery, for later, if you want to replace the TWPR recovery.

S9 crashes if it goes into locked screen [ROOTED]

Hey Community,
Im new here and got a big problem with my s9.
I rooted it today with magisk, just recovered my backup.
Then i noticed that always when the phone is looking to locked screen it just crash and i cant start it (only with Volume up + Bixby + Power Button and then there choose the reboot function)
Would be great if someone know the reason why this happens.
Regards

Probably something to do with restoring your backup

Try flashing stock 100% with CSC instead, do not restore any backup

You rooted your phone without knowing how to flash stock back?
Download the stock firmware, extract it, add all 4 sections to ODIN 3.13.1, do not use HOME_CSC, use CSC instead, put phone in download mode, flash

Have you found a Fix to this? What software did you use for rooting? Did you install a custom recovery?
For me this exact thing happens with TWRP and magisk. On the TWRP Thread jesec pointed out that rooting without flashing a custom kernel will most likely cause issues.
Was hoping you may have found a solution
