[Q] Cyanogenmod 10.1 fails to flash on Samsung S4 - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Hi
I've been trying to flash CM 10.1 for a while now, I tried all the nightly releases available none of them work, I keep getting a message saying "error" in red instead of successful after flashing the *cm____.zip* file, as you can see in the picture below...
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
...and when I continue like nothing happened the phone gets stuck on a boot loop showing the CM boot logo, it doesn't freeze tho and every time I need to restore form a backup via custom recovery.
I'm trying this on the Samsung galaxy S4 i9505 international 4G variant.
I'm also using TWRP custom recovery and I grabbed the CM files from gooManager.
I'm dying for this to work I will be forever grateful if someone would give me some advice.
Many thanks for your help!

Have you ever checked the md5 to make sure you got a good download?
Also... did you read post #2 here?

Need advice on flashing korean version Galaxy Note LTE (SHV-E160S)

Hi! First off, i'm sorry if this is the wrong sub i don't know where to post this.
My problem is that i'm new on flashing and i want to flash my phone but i am very confused at the moment. I've been researching what custom rom i should use and i from what i gathered is that i have to flash the original stock android first then flash the custom rom? This is what my phone settings looks like at the moment

. I'm running ICS and i want to update to Jellybean. Also, when i was researching i discovered something called cwm 6x and i don't know what's it for. I Dl'ed is as well just in case but now i'm stuck. I would like to learn from you guys on how to do it because i don't want to take a risk on bricking the phone cause i don't have any knowledge on flashing. Also, sorry for asking this question. This has probably asked before but the search engine for some reason is not working for me.
Edit: Also, i dl'ed the stock versions of this phone. It's the 4.1.2 version update. The custom rom i was planning to put on is this rom called EROM-E160K.[eRuiZhi.com].[Sdhjt.ORG].[J2] i dl'ed it from a thread here in xda.

[Q] I9100G didt know that he is an I9100G ! ! ! ROM FLASHING PROBLEMS

I own an Samsung GT - I9100G but my Problem is that when i try flashing a ROM my Phone always say following:"This package is for "i9100g,GT-I9100G" devices; this is a " " ... "
THINGS I ALREADY TRIED :
I already tried to flash the OmniRom and CM11 I also toggled the signature varifacation on/off an in both cases i didnt worked.
I tried to flash both ROMS with CWM an TWRP but I got the same Result.
Flashing a Root Kernel and TWRP&CWM worked fine.
I think the point is that my Phone "forgot" what device number he had so he block all attempts to flash a new ROM to protect it. Normally it will fill the space after "this device is a ... " but it didnt.
Years ago I flashed CM 9 or 10 and this worked.
I hope someone could help me because I´m sick to see the TouchWiz UI.

You're almost there. You need to install busybox and safestrap 3.72 or 3.75. Then look for roms that are safestrap compatible and flash away. Make sure you read the OPs before flashing. Some roms require extra files to flash.
Awesome thanks man I'll look into it

Another S3 boot loop problem

Hi
I have an S3 that I installed CWM on and OmniRom kitkat on. I have had it going well for about 2 years now, but the other day my phone ran flat and when I tried to switch it on it went into a boot loop. I have tried reflashing the rom and tried other roms. Wiped data, cache etc as per all the tutorials. Eventually I tried the stock rom using odin. Odin ran well with no errors. But now my phone now loops between the samsung logo and the Android logo. I no longer have CWM because of the stock rom.
What else can I try.
thanks in advance.
Try the rescue firmware in general forum and the pit file, the emmc was corrupted/damaged when the battery went flat.
BoomBoomer
thanks so much this got me on the right track and after much trial an error i managed to get my phone back with stock firmware.
I have this problem though. This screen pops up on the home page, just cannot get rid of it, any ideas?:
