i am already rooted my device nexus 4 now i am install rom like cm 10.1 or panaroid but i cant do it?

[Q] Galaxy S4 I9505 NL boots back in recovery after flashing 4.4.x ROM

Hi guys,
I have a little problem with my phone that makes it impossible to install 4.4 ROM's.
It keeps rebooting back in recovery or it hangs at the samung boot logo after i flash the rom.
With the CM 11 rom i managed to get past the samsung boot logo but sadly enough it gets stuck on boot(even after several wipes)
I always make sure to do all the wipes that are needed (normally provided in the rom thread)
4.3 roms install without problems btw.
Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505 (Unlocked)
Bought in the Netherlands
I've tried a few recovery's:
philz_touch_6.07.9-jfltexx
openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-jfltexx
CWM_6.0.4.4_Non-Touch_GT-I9505
Also i've tried the following roms:
[AOSP] Official 4.4.2 - S4 Google Edition - RC2 - Feel the Experience of Nexus
cm-11-20131129-Albinoman887-jfltexx-port
[ANDROID 4.4.2][ROM][I9505] Echoe Kit Kat v.2.1 (OTA CUSTOMIZATION)
danvdh-GE-4.4.2-12192013
I really dont know how to fix this since there arent any threads for this problem.
Maybe my phone is just from a bad batch
Hope you guys can help me and thanks in advance!

theres instructions on rom flashing by reading the dev section. happy hunting
Thinking about flashing cyanogenmod myself. What i am unsure on is, do i need a recovery to flash it or can it be done through odin so the knox isn't tripped? Any help would be appreciated.
1 Read the corresponding official CM threads.
2 Wrong section. Should be in Q&A.
Good luck

Hi,
In order to CyanogenMOD you will need to do the following :
Root the device and install a custom recovery
download the cyanogenmod zip file from the right thread
you will also have to install the relevant GAPP's folder (normally listed on the CyanogenMOD thread)
Boot into recovery mode
Do a wipe of the device and then install the cyanogenMOD zip file
Wiat for that installation to complete
Install the GAPP's Zip File
Reboot and Enjoy CyanogenMOD goodness !
* Any Issues you Encounter by following these basic instructions are not my fault even if your phone explodes and causes a nuclear power plant meltdown. *
The main question is, will it trip knox?

Can I flash a custom kernel for the Galaxy S5 (G900F) on my Duos model (G900FD)?

I currently have a rooted galaxy s5 duos with CyanogenMod 12.1 and I was wondering if I could flash a custom kernel that was made for the regular model and if not can you link me to a custom kernel suitable for my device cause i can't seem to find one.

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
I see with flashing the regular custom ROM onto the Duos everything will work but the radio, but I don't know if the case is the same with the kernel as well. I wouldn't be surprised.
I am connecting you to the following forum where your device experts can be found:

Hi guys,
today i tried to flash another custom ROM. I had running a cm12.1 build to that point. However after successfully flashing ROM][16-08-15][GT-I9506][5.0.2][PORT] Darklord Galaxy S6 v3.0 for S4 using the latest philz recovery, my phone wont do much more than displaying the Samsung Galaxy S4 logo. I can boot into download mode or recovery. But the rom wont boot. Any help is appreciated. Not sure what infos you need, so plz just tell me if you need more info to help me.

You should probably use the latest TWRP since Philz is outdated and not maintained anymore.
