[Completed] Bricked galaxy s4

I currently have a Samsung Galaxy S4 SCH-I545 NC5 4.4.2 Kitkat on Verizon Wireless, the device is rooted and running a custom kernel with Ktweaker. I attempted to install a new rom (Cyanginemod 10.2 stable) using Safestrap custom recovery. The phone didn't take the rom so no biggy however the backup wouldn't restore. Now the device won't even enter any form of recovery or download mode only display the Samsung logo. I have already tried flashing the stock firmware and pit md5 file on the device using the latest version of Odin. No success only corrupted data and a lost system backup.

[Completed] [Q] Cannot Flash SGH-T999

Hey Guys need you HELP.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 T999 which was running on android 4.3 (official rom). I rooted the device and also flashed ClockworkMod Recovery which was successfull.
I tried few roms and it did not work and i got an error which siad I have a d2spr device and the rom i was trying to install was meant for d2tmo.
now how is that possible? d2spr is for Sprint and d2tmo is for T-Mobile... and my device is T999 (T Mobile) (I REALIZED THIS AFTER MESSING UP MY DEVICE)
Later I flashed it with a custom rom via recovery menu and after that i tried loading GAPPS also from recovery mode. The custom rom was ok but gapps failed to install.
After falshing the custom rom i checked about device and it says the model number was dat of a sprint mobile (i747)
I tried other custom roms and gapps.zip but now my phone will not boot...when i turn it on it shows the SGS3 CWM screen and reboots into recovery.
No luck trying to flash it with a stock rom using odin either.
NEED SERIOUS HELP PLEASE!

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. First, only flash roms that are specific for your exact device. With your model number changing like it is it appears you've flashed some roms for other devices. You may not be able to recover the device. but see this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949687

[Completed] in desperate need for flashing a d2vzw(Verizon SGS3) SCH-I535

Hey everyone, I've been researching for days, trying to figure out how to Unlock my bootloader on a 4.2.2 OS d2vzw(Verizon SGS3) SCH-I535. it seems the only way I can start flashing new roms( specifically CM 12.1) is to install a custom recovery such as TWRP or CWM, but it locks up my recovery and I end up flashing the stock 4.2.2 over and over again. are there alternatives ways to flash roms? is it impossible to unlock my bootloader on a 4.2.2? is there a way I can downgrade my bootloader? help please nothing is working and I can't find current information....Thanks. :good:

Just a suggestion. Maybe post this in the correct forum. You posted this in the VZW S3 forum
You should be able to flash it back to stock via Odin
