tonight i decided to update my rom from Danvdh's 4.3 GPE to his 5.0 version. the update went flawlessly but i felt like wifi was very slow. i decided to flash my baseband from mk2 to nh7(sammobile). now, rather than seeing the lovely 5.0 bootup animation, my phone endlessly plays the tmobile bootup animation. i can't boot into recovery but i am able to boot into download mode
what was the problem with what i did? and what can i do to fix it?

The main problem was probably that you didn't READ, there are several threads started as well as a QBot thread, that pertain to issues and problems (some major like phone replacement) concerning GPE 5.0. If you read these postings you would or wouldn't have an answer to your boot loops, or you would had figured out that this 5.0 update is trashing a bunch of phones and maybe I shouldn't flash it.
Only thing I can suggest is reflash again, it may fix it. ???

i know this problem came from my lack of understanding. but it had nothing to do with 5.0 GPE...
anyways some point after rebooting/reflashing/flashing a root tar, i was able to get passed the tmobile animation and into the stock s4 setup. it was then that i realized that what i did was flash the stock rom, not just the baseband. i was finally able to get into recovery and wipe everything. flashed the 5.0 rom. everything works and now i actually have the nh7 baseband
Glad it worked out for you. Good recovery. Profit.

The only time I had this issue was after I changed font in Rom Toolbox. How are you wiping?

im using twrp first i tried to factory reset, caches that didnt work i formated internal storage same problem everything works great untill i restart the phone then wont go past boot screen. like its not reading the internal drive even did fix permisions and wiped caches after install. Also i used the updated su to flash after still problems, beyond me no problems with older ones or tw just the 4.3 roms
I, also, am having this very same issue. I'm honestly surprised that noone else seems to have run across this issue.
Installing is never an issue, running is never a problem, but if I ever reboot, if a ROM reboots itself, I'm left stuck at the GalaxyS4 splash screen, and the only way out it to Wipe everything and reinstall.
I see youre posting from an S3, I am using an AT&T S4.
Clearly, the issue is related to 4.3...
I had that problem with an unofficial build. But that was a bad download. Do you have new phones? The mount points are different on the newer sg3's. There's a thread with a fix for that
i had that problem. for some reason it locks your recovery and internal storage. you have to wipe it and install a rom via odin to work again. thats why im staying away from 4.3
i got my phone last december so its not real new, guess Ill just stay away from 4.3 roms. my recovery never got locked it just wont boot back up after restart. thanks for all the ideas
First if this in the wrong please move. I figured this would be decent spot to post.
Okay so I have the SPH-l710 S3. I was runing 4.1.2 and decided to root my phone. Succesfuly did so. Now about a week after this I found out about the OTA 4.3 update. I had no option to install and learned that I had to be Untrooted to recieve the update. Could not find a stock rom and decided to give up since i am new to this and was unsure if may brick my phone.
I discovered SLim 4.3. I found a build 2 rom wich ran 4.3. This rom can be found at slimroms.net. SO I download it move to phone and reboot in recovery. Backed my stuff and factory reset my phone,. After doing so my phone was stuck on boot.The factory rest not only removed everything including apps and formatting the sd. COuldnt figure out why untill i went back to recovery and found my phone wiped everything. And I mean everything. I removed my sd card ,inserted it in my computer and moved the new rom over. Rebooted again and flashed the rom. My phone booted and was set up. I come to find that interface after this was changed from the stock s3 interface. Looks more like nexus or something. Is this Suppose to happen and why?
The big isuue and question is that my phone is randomly rebooting. I have extremely poor service( I have tried multiple modems And currently using a MK3 modem .not to mentiuon no original app sthat I had once before such as the stock Music app. So as far at that is concered is ther way to restore my phone back to the day I bought it? Or A rom of some sort to fix the uissue. Maybe a patch? Maybe a better 4.3 rom to try. By all means I love my new interface and what I can do to customize it. But these bugs among several other minor issues is bothing me.
Here ar my phone stats as of now:
Android 4.3.1
Baseband: L710VPUVMK3
Kernell: 3.4.66 Cyanogen mod-gcc086c4
Cpu: ARMv7 Proccessor 4(v7)

I upgraded to kitkat through OTA update and it screwed my tablet up. It kept freezing and restarting by itself all the time to the point it was useless. I did a factory reset and couldn't get it past the boot screen and if it did it froze seconds after getting to the home screen. I called Customer service and told them I was having issues because of the update and they said I could send it in for $99 and they would repair it....... yeah right. So I decided to root it, I used Odin 3.7 and twrp then flashed it with nolekat I thought I had it fixed but it started doing the same thing again I am feed up with 4.4.2 and want to go back to 4.2.2 where I had no issues I cant find a clean stock rom for the 210R and was wanting to know if someone could point me in the right direction. Thanks

Hi i just found out now that after upgrading from 4.1.2 JB to 4.3 JB that there are some error happening with my phone. At first i was always curious on why my wifi signal is always low although the router is just outside of my room. I tried to google some possible solution and came up with someone saying that factory reset and wiping data cache had fix their low wifi connection problems, so i tried doing it too but after booting up with recovery i noticed that the usually standing android logo had laid down with an Triangle with a "!" on him ( i know that this must be some kind of error from that point) here's a screenshot

I still tried to continue wiping and it somehow works but it says "error" after doing so, then i tried to select reboot and it also works but still says "error"

A) what bootloader/modem version do you have ?
B) i dont think there is a 4.4 stock ROM.
C) did you make a nandroid backup (as you should always do for a safety net)(not that i ALWAYS do , but should.lol).
1) you should be fine flashing 4.3.
2) wifi issues MAY be related to running 4.4 on older firmware.
"all i can really do , is stay out of my own way and let the will of heaven be done"
You should be find flashing the stock 4.3 sgh-i747m. Just download the carrier ROM from sammobile.com.
If you want to stay on stock 4.3 and you want root, I suggest flashing the latest Philz Touch d2lte recovery via Odin and then flashing supersu from recovery.
If you want to be running the latest KK for the i747m, you can flash back to stock 4.3 and run OTA updates until you are running the latest ROM.
ROMs designed for the d2lte should run on the i747 and i747m. Bootloaders and modems cannot be cross-flashed.

B) after reading a lot of forums i got an information that samsung released and 4.4 stock rom for canadian version of s3. there's a downloadable rom here http://www.mrcrab.net/stockrom/sgh-i747m.html and from samsung kies
C) I never make backups too
C1) nevermind the wifi problem it seems that my router is the one who have a problem
ok. thanks for info. never knew there was a stock 4.4 for anyone. glad wifi got figured out.:good:
and , @audit13 is a lot more knowledgeable than i ; so i would advise listening to him 1st on any matters.

Hi, Ive not long had my m9. When i got it it updated straight away and got the charging bug.
Since then I have s-off'd and tried various roms with not too much luck.
I now have a bug that occurs when i flash a new rom. This has happened when i flashed 3 different roms. Leedroid, Viper and android revolution. the rom flashes ok, then starts to boot, and builds art. It then finishes building art and starts to complete the boot process, and then it reboots and tries to build art again.
I flash back to my stock backup and everything is fine again. (apart from the damned charging bug)
Has anyone else experienced something similar?? am i missing something??
Go in twrp and make factory reset
just tried that, didnt work
Did you update your firmware? if you're still on 1.x firmware, those 2.x roms will reboot.
yeah. have tried matching roms to firmware and still get the same result. trying viper one currently. in a massive bootloop again. It boots enough to say "nfc service has stopped working" and thats what made me think it might be firmware, but it seems to make no difference.
cant even adb whilst its booting.. getting waiting for device.
What version of twrp are you using?
2.8.6.1

Update to 2.8.7.0 and see if it continues.
I've solved this, and my charging issue. Finally!!
I decided to flash the earliest ruu I could find and then let it do all of the ota updates itself.
I then rerooted, flashed updated firmware and am now running leedroid.
Thanks for the help guys.
