[help]!!! Help the newbie here!!

Hi everyone, i encounter a problem earlier. Basically i rooted my phone days ago and i m still using stock rom without flashing custom roms. So i eager to try out the mod from Omega thread and install the Omega file from google play. After downloaded the mod (for omega rom) of scrolling wallpaper for TW and i flashed it. Booting up my phone with TW not responding, force close. Try again and again still cant boot into menu. I know i m stupid that didn't do a NAND backup before flashing it, and now i m stuck at this force close thing. So i found out out there there is a stock official rom XXUBMEA, i was previously from XXUAME2, can i flash this rom with odin?What is the complete process i need to do to flash this stock rom? Appreciate that you can help me so i can get back my phone!!

Thousand thanks bro. Last question, will the flashing of this stock rom reset all my setting including the message, contact number and etc and finally roll back to unroot?

It will not delete the setting apps data etc since u are flashing with odin
However after flashing u make whatever data backup u need and reset the device completely so that the csc will match the new firmware and will work with kies

Just Flash modem by completely power off . n then going into download mode and flashing XXUEMKE GSM and LTE modems via Odin.
NOTE: you must be on XXUEMKE Firmware.
1. Flash this GSM modem 1st.
power off and go to download mode again. uncheck automatic reboot.

2. Flash Wifi Fix modem

If you want to flash a modem via ODiN you have to power off the phone completely and boot into download mode!! Power+Volume down, and
Using advanced/extended reboot menus or any other way to boot the phone directly from system to download mode will always end up in a failed flashing process - the modem will not be flashed!
!!! Always power off the phone before !!!

Download CPU z and lux brightness from play store.
CPU z has an option which shows the values returned by your sensors.
Move your phone a bit and check if they change accordingly.
Try lux brightness to change ur brightness
From where you downloaded your stock ROM and how did you flashed it?
Which recovery are you using?

Download it from here
Search your phone's model number..
You can choose any country you wish to. But do not download any firmware that has a carrier written next to it. Dont download a network specific rom.
EXAMPLE: You have to download Brazil instead of Brazil (TIM)
Then flash it via Odin v3.09 by selecting the downloaded file in the PDA section
You can find many guides regarding how to flash via odin here.
And if you have the old bootloader then download any old file relating to your phones model number.
Remember if youre once on android 4.3, you cannot go back to 4.2.2
And if youre once on 4.4.2, there is no way you can revert to 4.3/4.2.2.
Bdw can you send me a screenshot of your current android version and baseband version? (Settings-->About phone)

No dont download the unknown ones.
Personally speaking, Ive never tried them and wont ever try them
Download any, but without the carrier specified for i9505.(Singapore,Brazil,Slovakia etc.)
And you can do a data wipe first and then flash or vice versa.
I used to enter the rom first and everything used to crash
then performed a data wipe via stock recovery amd everything was back to normal
But anyways, anything would do.
About the bootloaders. If youre already on 4.4.2, you have a knox enabled bootloader. So you won't be able to flash anything below 4.4.2.
Download and flash stock firmware and see if the same happens repeatedly.
At times flashing twice has also solved issues.
And pressing thanks is more than saying thanks

Ohh so you don't have knox eh??
So simply download any 4.2.2 version.
No 4.3 or 4.4.2
download 4.2.2

Well come on PM
Ill explain there now..
Bdw with knox enabled by flashing the latest 4.4.2, you shouldnt really have a problem
I9505 has the capabilities of flashing a custom rom too without tripping knox.

There is no point in reflashing the stock firmware.
You need to fully wipe in the custom recovery and reflash the custom rom.
If you still have problems then try a different rom, preferably a non TW rom, like CM.
If you then still have the problems it's probably hardware failure.

Now IMO youre flashing the wrong Omega/Pheonix Version that is why the FCs are there.
Because there have been drasctic changes from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2.
Either update to 4.4.2 or CM

If you are on the old bootloader then read my post in an other thread about it.

Yes. Use Odin 3.09 or higher to do it. Make sure to power OFF the phone first then go to download mode with vol down, home, power buttons.

Yes it should be safe. do not check re-partition, put the firmware in the ap slot and wait for odin to validate the md5. if unsure, check the q&a thread for more information on installing firmware.
