Hi,

I've been rooting and messing around with Androids since I had an HTC EVO. It was a great phone and uper easy to do whatever you wanted, to the point that
i bricked it twice, and i was able to recover easy as hell.

I've been dealing with my SPH-L720T SGS4, and it was doing fine, until last night when I tried to flash the SUPER S4 DEODEXED ROM and it all went downhill from there.

Ever since I flash CWM few months ago, I haven't been able to reflash back to stock or install any other recovery like TWRP or nothing and I know it has to do with this:

When I place the phone on Download mode, this is what the top left corner says;

ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SPH-L720T
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
KNOX KERNEL LOCK: 0x0
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x1
CSB-CONFIG-LS0: 0x30
WRITE PROTECTION: Enable
eMMC BURST MODE enabled

Any information will be highly appreciated.

Thanks for your time

You have to make sure you are installing the latest stock for your model S4 or it will fail in Odin. Flash only the SPH-L720T model firmware

Thanks for your prompt reply!

I have the stock Sprint ROM, and have tried, once and over, and over, to no avail.

The screen pops up with this info, no matter what I try:

ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SPH-L720T
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
KNOX KERNEL LOCK: 0x0
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x1
CSB-CONFIG-LSB: 0x30
WRITE PROTECTION: Enable
eMMC BURST MODE enabled
START [224,1440]
SECURE CHECK FAIL : aboot

Tried Triangle away, no reset on counter

I know it's something stupid, and I can't find what it is.

You can't downgrade your firmware if you're on anything after 4.3
try the latest version

Disable Anti-virus from pc
Use different versions of odin
Use the USB port behind the cpu

Just Go to recovery clear cache then data..

if it doesn't help go to Safe mode, check whether it is working ?

also check whether the bluetooth is working or not ? Wifi and bluetooth works on same chip..

Bluetooth switch turns and stays on. Wifi switch won't stay on. It says something about the phone security disabling it cuz it's not "permitted" to use wifi.
