i rooted my galaxy s4 and ever since that, i keep getting the error "system UI has stopped".. so after doing a lot of research i found that only way to fix this is by flashing stock rom. so i need to flash UCUEMK2 into my SGH-I337 AT&T phone via odin. im not sure if i should include a PIT file along with the AP file? what should i do?
i dont want to brick this phone again, so someone please help me..

if you download your stock rom from sammobile or samsungupdates, it will include only the necessary files. if it includes a .pit, use it, otherwise dont. (usually there isnt one)

Sammobile and other sites only have the 4.2.2 version, my phone has the ver 4.3 which i prefer.. So i should include the PIT file? And what are the chances or bricking this phone? Because im just after getting it fixed from a hard brick.. Thank you for your reply

how did you update to 4.3? if its a custom rom, you can just flash 4.2.2 again, then install the rom. if its by ota or kies, install 4.2.2 and update the same way again.

I dont think its a custom rom.. After i bricked my old motherboard i bought this new one from ebay.. It had 4.3 pre installed from OTA update i think.. Then i rooted the phone and kept getting the "system ui" error, then i unrooted the phone and hard reset it, didnt fix the problem. So im trying to flash UCUEMK2 which my phone already has.. 4.2.2 has many bugs and i cant send apps to memory card in 4.2.2 thats why im trying to get 4.3.. Thanks

so what i would do if i were in your place is download the 4.2.2. and then upgrate via ot or cutom rom. ill also try finding a 4.3 stock rom for you.
EDIT:
couldnt find 4.3 stock rom, youll have to do one of the above steps

I actually already have the PA file for the 4.3 already downloaded to my laptop but the tutorial i used told me to download the PIT file as well, and the comments that tutorial received werent good, and the other tutorials ive seen never used a pit files.. Thats y im confused.. It would be easy to flash 4.2.2 but the problem is i live in Ireland and we didnt get the 4.3 update here yet and i cant use OTA as its locked to AT&T.. Its very confusing i know.. But thank you so much for helping me

well, you can try without the .pit, if it dosent work do it again with, its simple. if you brick it, then use the 4..2.2 to uynbrick then try the other method, so no matter what its not a biggie.

Yeah if u hard brick it, the phone doesnt do anything.. Not even charge or flash a light.. Its just completely dead.. You could get it unbricked if ur living in USA or UK and few other countries using JTag method but in ireland they dont have the tools to do it, not even the samsung repair shop, so i had to buy a new motherboard.. Thats why im very scared to do this..

you can also get a usb jig off ebay for about $5, just plug it into the port and it boots into odin mode.

Hello guys,
So... I have samsung GT-S7710 (Galaxy Xcover2).
I had it rooted with prerooted odexed FW (from this post)
So this is the OK part :laugh: .... everything was working fine.
Then, to claim my waranty, i have unrooted it...so I've reseted the counter and flashed it with FW I've backed up from my phone before rooting.
So now for the wierd part...everything was ok, booted my phone, everything was working, then restarted it, and all of the sudden touchscreen stoped working
I've read about bricked touchscreens, but mine worked for some time..
So I was thinking now...should I try and flash official FW for my phone, rather than backed up one ?
Or is there any thing else to do ? Or even...did maybe touchscreen went to *khm* ?
Thank you guys for your time you spent reading & hopefully anwsering this

Thanks for your reply, I've tried this right away.
I've tried with official version (from SamMobile)...I've choosen version for Slvoenia (my country) w/o any provider
But still no sucsess...
Odin sucsesfully flashes, phone boots, and touch doesnt work again (I'm stuck at that starting page...to chose language and so on..)
But like I've said everything else works ok, eg.: power btn, wolume up/down,... only touch doesnt work.

Sorry for the double post..
I've tried to flash ROM that I was using before (rooted one). And now touch even doesnt work in this one.
Is this maybe hardware problem ?

I will do exactly this
One more thing... I've bought my phone in a electronic store (no carier involved). Should I flash it with FW for my country ? What if phone had any other FW on when it was new ?
EDIT:
Just realised....I've flashed rooted FW on my phone...which has increased the counter of custom flashes... To reset the counter I need root permisions...but how if I cant even unlock my phone.
I probably cant use [email protected], because I've hard reseted the phone, which means that Usb debug is disabled (correct me if I'm wrong), so thats of the list..
Do you guys know if any FW has enabled USB debug by default ? Or if there is any other option ?
Hey guys,
I have a rooted J700F with
Knox Warranty Void : 1
can i safely install the stock rom with the use of odin from sammobile?
or is my device gonna brick?
Guys please tell me as this is literally my last phone(if i brick it)(then ill have to use a landline) as i have bricked many phones. and my dad is telling me that he s not gonna give me any more money for all this rooting crap.
stock rom flashing
Yes u can safely flash the stock rom via odin.....if u dont know the process then u can tell me...i ll explain it to u....and if u want i can give u the link of the stock rom......
Thanks for your reply i do know the process (i guess) but i'd like if you explain it to me once again as i don't wanna take any risk!
Thanks in advance!!
I am running J700F on the indian stock rom
First u have to download the stock rom from sammobile.com.....then u have to put the phone into dowload mode.....then connect the phone via usb cable to the pc......u ll get a message that the phone has been added.....then click the ap button on odin and browse to the folder where u have kept the stock rom......that should be the md5 cheksum file.....then wait for some time.....then press the start button....u ll see that nand write will start......congratulations. ....u have finished the process and u are back to the stock rom....i have already done this process for 15 times.....when my phone got stuck into the boot logo.....its a very easy process.... ok.....best of luck....
after flashing will it still show
Knox Warranty Void :1??
Yes....the knox will not work anymore....

It's bever work in Bangladesh. I was tired. It wants #recovery code so...
So, i was trying to flash a ROM after i got my recovery and root going on, i wiped EVERYTHING INCLUDING THE recovery file i made and the installation file i got in the phone when i went to wipe the system files and attempt to install the ROM. So, i tried to put the ROM files into my phone via the ADB method. It worked but my ROM didn't and now my S6 is in a boot loop. i have tired Odin, smartwatch and kies. On kies and smart watch, they both said the attempt to install stock ROM failed and attempt a emergency recovery. HOWEVER, both software did not recognize my device in the emergency recovery devices list, nor did it recognize it as a compatible device in the 1st place, i tired to reinstall the drivers and the software themselves but nothing worked. For Odin, it keeps on saying fail to flash as well, it usually stuck on the 'nano write' process or 'setting up connection' process for a long time too! I did download the official Samsung firmware and extracted it, put it into the blank next to the 'AP' button in odin and i got 'Auto Reboot' and 'F. Reset Time' checked off. On the phone, i can boot in to download mode and download mode only, now it shows me a triangle and it says that stock firmware flash failed and use emergency recovery. i actually download a custom recovery and for some reason it wont boot into that.
Model number: SM-G920W8
carrier: fido
If any of you pros got any ideas please share with me, i've been trying to fix this problem for about a day and a night.

Hey, sorry for the late reply, but I was away from the website for some time hoping someone can reach out, and yet there you are!
Well i actually got over the issue with the voice from Google and I have a keyboard now , but there are somethings out of place on my phone, like for example the clock is gone , my precious Notepad is gone as well along with all the important notes, before I attempted to root my device I made a full back up ( the root on my phone is terribly difficult, can't find a good guide that fits my need to do it safely.

And I want to get my clock back and more importantly to get the notes from notepad back :/

Did not post any guide..
Its simple..but you need correct files to do it successfully..
Download correct stock firmware file
Correct I mean according to you model and build number.
The firmware number should be same or higher ..
If you have any question post here.

if i want to flash the stock firmware i should do it with which tool ? is it the same tool that is used with rooting which is TWRP , or do i use something else
and when you say the correct files , is the file required for this process called update.zip?

No tool is needed , you just need to place the correct UPDATE.APP (downloaded from honor official site) in a folder called dload a
at the root of your SD card, shut down your phone then hold power + both volume buttons. When the phone is starting release the power button but keep holding volume buttons. It should start installing the firmware.
If it doesn't work you probably need to install a stock recovery and retry.
If the firmware you have chosen is the wrong one the phone won't accept it . (Upgrade failed)
Please take note that if the process succeed it will erase all your data, you should take a backup before
Good luck bro even if it isn't a tough process, and let us know the end of the story

Power up the phone by pressing three button(power button, vol+ and vol- button)

I want to try to root and fix my phone before the weekend started so I can have fun, can I annoy you or anyone else with this?
I need to get help with two things, first get the flash on my FRD-L09 FRD-L09C185B387, emui 5 androids 7.0 and get my notepad and clock back, second, i need to root it, in the right way with no issues.
Thanks best regards
To root it you first need to install a clean ROM without missing apps. In order to do that you need to perform the dload method that I detailed previously.
Then unlock bootloader, flash TWRP, flash superSU and you're rooted
