G900F - Can't use the screen after installing a custom rom. - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
the phone:
Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900F
Last official firmware:
G900FXXU1POJ2 (VD2) 5.0 Germany
I flashed TWRP via Odin
Then SuperSU via ODIN
Then installed a custom recovery.
After full install and reboot it hangs on the first screen and I cannot touch it. It won't do anything. Reboots, deleting cache won't help.
Do you know what I did wrong or why I can't use my phone anymore?

I installed a freshly new official stock rom, it'll boot but won't go any further and bootloops.
Then I tried a CM - ROM and it's the same with another rom. The touchscreen doesn't work. But the touch works on TWRP. That's really weird.
It freezes, the LED is always on and the softbuttons too.

ask you if you have this problem before root
lol twrp is costume recovery and just flash twrp and applied the supersu.zip and its done phone rooted
but if you have problem after touch think
1- you don't flash the true cm ( klte is for 900F )
2- your touch panel is damaged
3- for your original stock rom ( lag ) ty to wipe data and cache ( attention you will lose your data with )

- I was on official vodafone germany firmware.
- Phone told me to get the last update
- Phone installed last update
- After installation phone was bootloopin
- I did hard reset
- Phone booted up until it said, that it is installing a few applications (you know what I mean)
- While installing progress of that it restarted and installed and restarted and so on..
So I decided to get a custom rom.
- I flashed TWRP for KFTL (I have SM-G900F) via ODIN.
- Everything works fine.
- I flashed Chainfires SuperSU via ODIN.
- Everything works fine.
- I installed a custom ROM (eg: The Galaxy Project)
- It booted and then freezes.
So after that I was afraid and flashed a stock rom via Odin but it was the same with the official OTA-update from Samsung. Reboots while installing first apps.
Then I tried with CM but it freezes too. I am sure it has nothing to do with the screen.
On official (stock) ROMs it reboots while installing first apps.
On custom ROMs it freezes. It won't go any further. It must be something else. Any ideas?
BTW: I have another SM-G900F and it works flawlessly. I know that I am doing.

what y mean freeze the phone or just touch ( but bottom work like vol )
if only touch think is damaged

Hm. If you boot up your phone for the first time or after hard reset or after an update it boots up and then there comes the very first message that android is preparing the apps for the first start, right? On official firmware it bootloops when that message comes.
On CyanogenMod it boots until this Screen:
And then it freezes.
I can't believe that it has to be the touch panel, because everything works fine in TWRP. The phone won't let me go any further than the first Screen. And the touch can't be damaged. Before I did the official Samsung update everything works fine.

[FIX GUIDE] For Flickering / jumping screen after unlocking the screen

Hello , like many of you , i got the flickering screen / jumping screen after unlocking my screen. Rebooting works but as soon as i close the screen or it shuts itself, unlocking it will cause it to flicker / jump like if the resolution was bad or something.
Installing ANY rom from the developpers did not work. From jellybean to revolution , to any popular modified rom.
My tablet is the galaxy 10.1 P7510 , here's what i did.
Updated clockworkmod from 4.0.04 to 5.5.0.4
Restore tablet to the day 1 when you unrooted it (instructions clearly told you to make backup, remember?)
Install Kies official by samsung
Update your tablet , you will now gain the newest version , official by samsung
Your tablet will now be rooted by samsung though , few components of the CWM remains.
Download clockwork mod 5.5.0.4 recovery file , flash it through Odin3 through PDA section
You will now gain back Clockworkmod but yout CWM will flicker / jump like crazy
Make your way through wipe
You may now try to install any modified ROMs, me i installed Revolution 1.0
Make your way through installing the ROM , i put it in ALARM folder because its the easiest to reach , choose your ROM , then press down 6 times to be able to press on YES to installt he rom
RESULT : CWM flickers / jumps but my modified ROM FINALLY does not jump / flicker after unlocking the screen
Good luck everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello,
this doesent work for me.
My tab cant be updatet with Kies. ist only 3.1.
When i flash the 4.0.4 open Austria with odin i will have the flickering screen.

Odin DISABLED!!!

It happened when I flashed ChobitsDigitalis or something like that into my SGY. I cleared wipe and cache two times before and flashed it using CWM. custom rom successful.
but there is a problem I noticed, at first I can't connect to a Wi-Fi (which has excellent signal). I assumed that this is caused by my new custom rom, so I tried to use my nandroid backup (back to stock rom). it was successful, but when I tried to boot it only showed the logo for many minutes. I think I should re-flash it using Odin mode. I successfully booted to Odin mode first, but when I started reflashing the message stuck to establishing connection, I disconnected and did it the second time. this time shows Failed message.third time I cleared data and cache and flashed again. stuck at establishing connection. I flashed back to custom rom and that happened. I can't access it in button combination keys.
What should I do? How can I re-enable it again?
Re-flash stock ROM and update it via Samsung FW update to the latest...then root your device and start all over again
Why dont you consider Remix V2.1 it works GREAT !!!
A ROM being updated to V2.5 anytime this week or so :good:

Help! Rooted Samsung GT-9505 stuck on samsung logo

Hi!
I just rooted my Samsung GT-I9505 a few weeks ago with Odin v3.07 and CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505.tar.md5.
Note that I didn't install any custom ROM.
It worked fine until now.
When I turned my phone off, it got stuck in reboot. The screen is black with a "Android OS is upgrading.. Opening all applications."
It's been 30mins and it just stayed there so I decided to take the battery off, put it back in and turn myphone on.
Now it's just stuck with the samsung logo. And whenever I factory reset and reset cache it, it just get stuck with a black screen with a "Android OS is upgrading.. Opening all applications."
Did I just bricked my phone? Is there any way to fix this?
Any help would be deeply appreciated. Thanks!

U flash philz recovery and do wipe cache / dalvik / fix permission and if req also reset the device it should reboot just fine
2,

:laugh: Thank you! Wow! That's a relief! I thought I'm going to have an expensive paperweight.
Anyways, tried option number 1 and Flashed philz_touch_5.10.0-i9505.tar.md5. All went well until the reboot and it got stuck into the samsung logo. So I removed the battery, put it back on and tried to go to recovery settings (VOL UP + HOME + POWER) but then it continued to reboot and stopped at the samsung logo.
Note that earlier, before I flashed philz.. I can still go to the recovery settings.
Will now try the second option. Just another question though. By pre-rooted firmware, do you mean a Pre-Rooted ROM or the original stock rom? Seen them here --->
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42798412&nocache=1&z=4556388005148619
Am I on the right track?
If you want it rooted then use a pre-rooted rom or flash a stock rom then root again, your choice really...
i ugraded my XSA 4.3 official firmwate to BTU official firmware. everything is succesfull but now my phone is tuck on Android is upgrading screen. what should i do. please help

Hiya guys need some help
I have a galaxy s4 gt-i9505 that I had running the Google play edition ROM
Then my wife ordered a galaxy gear for my birthday (early January)
I tried to put the latest carrier ROM on through Odin and it flashed OK but kept coming up with procces.android.acore has stopped
I did some googleing and then re-flashed the ROM but clicked the wipe button and it flashed OK
But when it restarted it got stuck in a bootloop and wouldn't get past the Samsung logo
I then flashed twrp recovery and managed to get 4.4 ROM on there (but it seems really laggy and drops calls everytime)
I have tried to recover my backup but twrp can't see it and the cwm recovery won't flash on
So how do I either get stock back on my phone or a ROM that will accept the gear and isn't laggy or buggy
Thanks in advance for the help guys

Download the triangle away app. (search google or xda)
Download the latest Samsung ROM from Sammobile.com
Enter in recovery mode and WIPE all data,
Flash the ROM via ODIN.
When its done, enter in recover again and make another wipe.
If u get a successful boot, and if u have a new bootloader(knox) u wont be able to use WIFI, u'll need to use Triangle away to wipe the binary counter. SO then u will need to REFLASH the ROM.
After all of this, u should get the phone working fine.
Sorry for the text. ;o
IF U DONT HAVE THE NEW BOOTLOADER (KNOX), JUST WIPE THE SYSTEM BEFORE AND AFTER FLASHING.
Good luck, bro.

Correct ROM for ur UK branded to Vodafone is this ONE
ok so i admit i'm an idiot,
what i forgot was that i needed to use adb to get into cwm recovery
when i realised that i could recover back to my stable version
so in order to use the gear (when it arrives) do i need to go back to stock or can i use the google play edition rom i like ???

Mate, try this steps:
1. Flash stock recovery
2. Flash stock rom from sammobile
3. wipe
The gear only works with stock rom 4.3
ok so i tried everything nothing worked and i got stuck in a constant bootloop
then i tried flashing it with odin 3.09 .......all was going well till it failed and left me with nothing on the phone at all
i re-tried with through 3.07 and this time it worked
i now have stock on my phone thankfully
thanks for all the help guys

All apps crash on boot - update fails - cant use anything - pls help

I have galaxy s4 gt i9500 and I m from india. I recently updated to lollipop and rooted by phone and installed philz recovery but later decided to unroot it using supersu unroot option. The strange thing is that i never got philz recovery but my phone was always rooted. All root apps worked fine. Anyways i decided to unroot it.
Now, after unrooting using supersu complete unroot option, i checked for updates and downloaded and ran the 326mb update available in india but the update always fails at 25% and when my phone boots normally , all apps force stop - yes all apps, i see only a black screen and errors of all apps that have forced stoped and only thing i can do is click on ok and power off or reboot my phone.
I cant boot into recovery as if i do that it goes to system update and throws an error at 25%
Please help, i have some imp data which i did not back up - phone is not detected in the pc / kies etc.
Extra info: I once did wipe cache partition and got the exact same issue when of all apps force stoppin on boot but then i went into recovery mode and did factory reset and all was fine.
Thanks - all replies appreciated.
you can't install official updates using a custom recovery
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app
Just download the firmware from sammobile or another source!
Download Odin v3.09
Extract (unzip) the firmware file and the odin
Turn off the phone and go into download mode by pres and hold the (Volume down key+Home key+Power key)
Run the Odin and add the firmware file in AP/PDA section
Connect the phone when you get the blue icon in com-id (Before connecting please make sure you installed the proper drivers of your phone. Recommended to install samsung kies3 it will automatically installs all the drivers)
Tick only auto reboot and F. Reset time boxes
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes.
This will install the stock firmware and all the errors will be gone after installing.
^^ Thanks!!
Will this process wipe all data of my phone or all the data will be intact ??
Sammobile has the version 5.0.1 and I am already on 5.0.1 - will it cause any issue ??

Its better to make a backup of your data. But this process will not wipe ur data. Better you do factory reset after installing the firmware because u r experiencing errors. No issue u can still install 5.0.1
Hi I was wondering if you were able to fix your problem. I have the exactly same symptoms with my phone however I got there in a different way.
I got myself in a big problem when trying to change the SuperUS app that go installed with [GT-I9500] CF-Auto-Root method.
I was able to root my S4 i9500 following the "[GT-I9500] CF-Auto-Root" threat a few days ago and everything was good.
Then for some reason (I still want to remember what was the reason) I decided to change the superUS app with Superuser clockworkmod app (I am a noob and I deserve this I know). anyway I downloaded the other app from google play and when I opened it say it has to instal the binaries, I said ok and the phone reset and went directly to download mode I believe.
It was doing something but whatever it did it failed. So I said ok not big deal I will reset the phone and end of story. However now when I boot up the phone when it passes the samsung logo and start to load up the OS every single app fails to load, "unfortunaly xxxxx has stopped" I press ok and then it goes to the next "unfortunaly yyyyyy has stopped" and the next and the next and the OS never loads. The screen just remain black until I press power and gave me the option to power off, reset, airplane mode, etc.
IS there a way to fix o revert this. I am able to get to download mode but ODIN does not detect the phone (odin detects the phone when the phone is in normal mode tho???)
I am able to get to the stock recovery too. Can i fix this from sd card?
any guidance would be appreciated.
