I was running Cyanogen Mod 7, but wanted to flash another ROM. I decided to go back to Cyanogen but the recovery in the new ROM was in Chinese. I reflashed Sndinitdefy and rebooted to the new CWM recovery. My phone cannot find the sd card in recovery mode. If I flash to stock froyo, I can see the card. I tried another card and the phone sitll can't find the card/ How do I fix this?
Thank you.
Dear all,
I need your help on solving a problem I am having on my GT-i9505.
Yesterday I have tried to root the device with CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505, and it worked fine until I noticed that it was somehow very slow on phone start.
This slowdown problem was not caused by the root process because I have noticed it even before the root process.
In order to try to solve it, I have installed the CWF i9505-cwm-recovery-6.0.3.2-4, and made a backup of the system before make a full system restore (wipe data/factory reset) via CWF.
After that, the system did not started and stays on a boot loop.
Accessed the CWF again and restored the backup, but the problem remains.
After all this process, I get totally lost and tried several solutions and none of them worked.
At this moment I can only access "download mode" and CWM based recovery.
Since I am already lost, and really do not know where to go next, I ask you help on how can I solve this problem and have the phone working again.
The only data I have about the phone:
MODEL: GT-I9505
I9505XXUEMJ5 / I9505ZWAXST
I know this is an international model.
I think on downloading the stock firmware from samsung (4.2.2 or 4.3) no not know which one is advisable, but before that I really need to know if there any additional solution because I don´t even know if this will solve the problem.
Another problem is the hotfile hosting, since I connection is very unstable and will take some time to download the file.
Anyone can help me please?
Thank you in advance
Best regards
Paulo Matos
Since you already have CWM installed you may aswell download a new rom and copy it an SD card. install from recovery.

Thank you simondo12.
Do you mean, download a stock firmware from samsung for this especific model and install it from sd card?
If not, what file do you advise for my model?
Since I am unable to access the phone via android, I have tried to access the sd card from CWF. What I noticed:
- I can access the external sd card from the pc, but I cannot access the internal sd card from the pc.
- I cannot access the external sd card directly from CWF (perhaps because of it's size since it´s a 64GB), but I have access to internal sd card
Even if I copy the file to the external sd card, I will be unable to install it from CWF because I have no access to the external sd card (error on mounting external sd card). Is it the size of it?
I am trying to download the new firmware (4.3) from samsung for my model and will try to install via odin. Will I require to install the attachment that says "kernel file"? This process will take lots of time because I have an unstable internet connection for downloading via hotfile and uploaded file servers.
The problem is that I do not know if it will work because the phone is rooted and have cwf installed.
Thank you very much
Paulo
since its a 64GB have formatted it in exfat? if so then CWM may not recognize it. I would try installing Philz recovery if you are using standard CWM see if it will recognise the card. Do you have another SD card you could try?
There's not really much point in flashing a new firmware in odin if you have cwm installed. Just copy custom rom over to an SD card.

Hi symondo12,
Thank you once again.
I have alredy found the Philz thread and found a gt-i9505 version and instructions to install both from sd and from odin.
I will try and see what happens.
Regardless the custom rom, since my galaxy s4 was on 4.3, will I be abble to downgrade? Ask you that because I do not know if there is a custom rom for gt-i9505 on android 4.3.
If not, just need to copy the stock rom to sdcard and install it the same way as a custom rom?
Thank you very much for your time
Regards
Paulo

Dear symondo12,
I have changed the sd card to a 2GB sd card and CWF now recognizes it.
I will see if I can download the stock firmware from samsung and see if I can install it and solve my problem.
Additionally I found a "Pure-Google-pre-rooted-4.3-v2.3"... hope it works.
Thank you once again
Paulo

It sounds like you have a bad download. Retry it and check the md5 with this. Download the ROM, check the md5, copy it to your extSD, reboot to SS and try again. If the ROM slot gives you problems try the stock slot. I always flash to the stock slot. The worst that will happen is you will have to Odin back to stock but most likely not if you have a backup on the extSD.
I've seen that. What version of Safestrap?

Hi there guys.
A friend of mine is selling a Note 4 N910F that has some problems.
Here it goes : he installed TWRP and he rooted the phone.. but he said that when he wanted to wipe and reset to the defaults, he accidentally checked to delete the OS.. and now he said he can't flash the phone with ODIN because it gives him an error... but he can enter TWRP and Download mode.
Is there any way to make this phone work again ?
The phone is locked to Orange network, if that helps.
Thanks in advance!
If the odin method don't work then get a rom that can be flashed via recovery so copy the rom to ext sd card from pc and insert it into the phone. Boot into recovery and wipe all including internal sd but abiously exclude the ext sd card and then try the flash.
If it don't work with one rom then try and get another rom and keep going through all the custom roms from xda until it works.
