dr.ketan...i've read the post that said newer kernel cant be root unless it's been downgrade...mine is la1..so i download the file of kk1 to downgrade my note..im not using mobile odin(my bad..wrongly describe)...im using pc odin

Then its ok
Read your first post, it is confusing
Anyway juat check your pc, have kies installed but not running in nackground, close any other pc sync sw running, disable firewall/antivirus if running
Put once device into recovert, clear cahe , delvic cache, wipe data
N retry, i believe problem is at your pc side.

[Q] Please help me - ICS TO GB - DO NOT WANT TO BRICKS :(

I know that this is probably another post in a series of desperate to get back to ICS for GB, but please understand me, I did not want to get my phone is a brick
I used the CheckROM NoteHD ™ V6. I tried to go to Criskelo LPY V3's ICS ICS. I restarted my phone into recovery and I flash: AbyssNotekernel42RedTouchCustomLogo.zip
Then I reboot and recovery (the recovery RedTouch) I did factory reset, wipe and wipe cahce Dalvik cache and then and flash Criskelo LPY V3's ICS ICS. When the flash ended (I did not have any information about errors) successfully I restarted my phone. My phone Restarted a few times and finally started to Criskelo's ICS ICS LPY V3.
But I wanted to return to the previous rom. Perhaps I did wrong, but I restarted my phone into recovery and I tried to flash again: AbyssNotekernel42RedTouchCustomLogo.zip (I thought that this way I can upload my copy of the rom GB) .... but after the approval of the progress bar stops, and after about two minutes, the phone reboots again it's ICS ICS Criskelo LPY V3
Just notice another problem, not sure if it is when I tried binary updating SU.

Screen was made by another user, but for me it is exactly the same.
Everything indicates that I have root - titanium works and I can copy and delete any file in the system
Now the question:
How should I go back to GB (whether it is better not to do it?). Please help me what should I do step by step?

Don't panic mate!
Go into Recovery
Flash abyss 4.2 or Franco 10
FULL WIPE (factory reset,cache,davnik cache)
Restore backup or even better Flash a clean GB ROM
Edit: of course you can use PC Odin in download mode and flash a pre-rooted GB From.

Its not the "wrong way".Flash a clean Rom now,not your backup. Maybe your backup file is corrupted. If you want try Pc-Odin as I said before. Your choice...
Anyway, hope you'll figure it out.

He can still ODIN, right? I haven't read where he said he can't access download mode. He was just trying to do stuff in recovery. Can we confirm you can not access download mode either?

Okay cool, that's fairly good news because if you CAN enter download mode you are not bricked and you can ODIN a pre-rooted GB rom or a stock GB rom. If your phone will charge, let it charge up and then ODIN away.

Try repartitioning the device. To do so use simply set the right pit file in odin.

This is great. Thanks for posting this! Now we can feel a bit more confident playing with the phone knowing we can restore it.

After having previously flashing the 4.3 OTA I flashed this 4.3 MH1 with ODIN to try out the new radio. Everything seemed to flash fine but the phone is still showing MFD baseband.

I flashed just like the OP. I ended up flashing your 4.2.2 MFD restore, fully unrooting, locking bootloader, and then just taking the 4.3 update straight from Google over the air, settings/about/system updates. Now I have the MHL radio.
I'm not sure why my phone wouldn't take the modem but your 4.2.2 restore worked nicely. Thanks.

Yeah I am not sure why you had that issue I reflashed MH1 many times with no trouble making MH1 modem stick if I was on MFD.

Anyone has the CSC package from this firmware?
Or older firmwares?

Hi there,
Can someone explain to me why this can't be used to convert a standard i9505 into a i9505G?
I'm currently running a GE ROM on my i9505 and the phone is, for all intents and purposes now a Google Edition phone, it jas the same HW and can run the same software, so where are the limitations that stop us from flashing a package like this in Odin and getting an official i9502G with OTA support and all?

The partition layout is extremely different between the I9505/USA Variants and the I9505G, this prevents y'all using ODIN as it looks for a I9505G pit file, doesn't find one that matches, so it stops.

Hmmm...could we use a correct. pit file then?
Flash with repartition enabled? I guess we need proper GE factory restore images from Samsung, right?

It's been explored extensively already. PIT files are signed by Samsung for particular devices only.

[Help] Samsung Galaxy S4 5.0.1 SGH-I337 won't reboot properly

This is my first post so I'm sorry if I did not post this in the right place or didn't do something else regular-place to these forums. Please guide me in the right direction if I didn't. So I rooted my phone with Kinguser and then switched it to SuperSu pro using the in-app instructions ins SuperSu. My goal is to install Xposed onto my phone but part of the problem is that I have to boot and manual recovery with TWRP or something similar for Xposed to work on my S4 (specifications above). But every manual recovery app I download works up to the point I actually try to reboot. All of them can find my root access and say they install successfully, but when I hit reboot and recovery, it always goes into Odin mode (and in the top left corner of Odin mode it says cannot reboot normally). I can get out of Odin mode easily so the problem isn't that I'm stuck there. I just want to know how to proceed with reboot and recovery when every time I try it goes into Odin mode.

Easiest way is to go into download mode(Odin mode) and flash TWRP via Odin. In Odin make sure to uncheck reboot and f. reset once TWRP is flash unplug and pull the battery and reboot directly to recovery (power & volume+) once you get into TWRP it'll stay after that. Then just reboot your phone normally. Also within TWRP you can flash SuperSU.

Easiest way is to go into download mode(Odin mode) and flash TWRP via Odin. In Odin make sure to uncheck reboot and f. reset once TWRP is flash unplug and pull the battery and reboot directly to recovery (power & volume+) once you get into TWRP it'll stay after that. Then just reboot your phone normally. Also within TWRP you can flash SuperSU.

Thanks for the response!! I found the twrp file on their website (one which is a .md5 and one which is a .img which both don't work). They would both just freeze in Odin. So I found a tool online that turns .img files to .tar file. Link to tool below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2281287
with another thread that helped to fix the runme.bat file
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42511844#post42511844
and that helped make a .tar file which doesn't freeze up Odin, but when I run the .tar file made from that tool, the manual flash using Odin runs through and fails. the Odin prompt is shown below.

Pretty much everything. I would not trust converting files like that. High potential for bricking your device.
The link I gave you is a .tar file that Odin likes. The md5 is at the top, yes, but you need the tar file just a little further down.
I linked you the latest one that is .tar. Newer versions are in .img that can be flashed in recovery.

I downloaded the .tar file you linked above and tried it and it still failed. So to be descriptive as possible the first thing I do is plug my phone (without twrp installed) into my pc. Then I turn it off. Then I try to reboot. Phone can't reboot and forwards directly to Odin mode. I download the .tar file you linked me above. I do not unzip the file. I have Odin3 v3.07 installed. I open Odin and uncheck Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time. I click on PDA and select the unzipped zip file for flash. Nothing is said in the message display after that and is still at.

Phone isn't bricked but it seems that the .tar file linked above isn't working as well. Is it my phone probably?? Samsung Galaxy S4 AT&T SGH-I337 5.0.1 Lollipop rooted with Kinguser and then switched over with SuperSu pro via in app instructions?

Thanks so much for all the help!! After that linked I found a bunch of conversations that helped. If you every help out with someone with the same specifications on their phone then I had there's not much I can say that can help as far as Lollipop goes. I could not find a way to get Xposed on my device as is. But if anyone really does want it, I found that if you find the right .PIT file and the stock ROM for a previous version of Android (I tried a few which all work, but I would suggest KitKat because why not) then you'll be able to do anything you want without all the heartache. After I used Odin to flash KitKat onto my device, I found that I didn't even need TWRP, Xposed installed quite nicely, and even though the layout doesn't look quite as nice as Lollipop, you can find a bunch of display modules in Xposed that fit the bill quite well.
All in all, Samsung Galaxy S4 AT&T SGH-I337 5.0.1 and want Xposed?? You're screwed. Flash KitKat.

First make a backup of your own system (you can just backup cache as an example) and then copy or cut all the backup files to the backup folder you just made (make sure you remove the backup files you just created beforehand)
