[Q] GT-I9070 Soft Brick

Hi XDA,
I recently soft bricked my phone when i was trying to root it. The only thing it does is showing the boot animation. (the name of the phone)
I'm now trying to flash it to stock rom.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
A friend of TheHighLife.

Flash again stock firmware.Will work.Maybe your root zip is wrong and cause bootloop.Download again,put in external sd card and flash again.

[Q] Kitkat Stock ROM

Hey guys quick question, i am currently living with my long suffering firmware that is jellybean...the phones needing a good clean out and update!
So i was wondering if there is a UK regional FTF for the latest kit kat?
BUT ALSO! i have seen generic ES (Spain) Regional FTFs for Kit Kat and i will be moving to Spain in September.. so should i just go a head and flash that? i don't know the difference between ES & UK (not that i have managed to find a UK version, maybe someone could point me in the right direction)
Also are these FTFs available for rooting? my phone is currently rooted with CWM and will most likely want to re-root after i have flashed with flashtools..
sorry to ask such nooby questions
Thanks
Chris

You can re-root using towelroot after flashing with flashtool

The UI is a bit different with lot of bloatware removed.
Battery drain will be there initially but it will disappear after play store automatically updates.
Hitting thanks will be more appreciated than typing it

i've thanked both posts and i am currently flashing excited! i havn't heard of towelroot before? i usually use doomlord kernel? does it definetaly work with xperia z? the reason i ask is i am not sure if after flashing the bootloader locks again..... do you need a locked or unlocked bootloader?
cheers

I had rooted using the old school method because towelroot was not availabe then
Towelroot will work to root and its the easiest way at the moment.
After rooting just download and install SuperSU from play store.
After flashing firmware Bootloader wont be locked again
Kernel and Root are two different things
You will have to flash recovery again though as flashing firmware will remove the recovery
You can get the recovery from here
Dont follow root instructions from the link as you will be rooted after using towelroot

just flashed the AP and it is working ok, do I need to flash the baseband? I kept it on OI5 so not sure if I should also update it.

I installed and worked perfectly!
The system was much faster and fluid than OI5.
Good job!
Thank you!
(Please, make this majestic work when leaving the G900AUCU4DPC1!)

Works Great!!!
Thanks you very much!
I was fixed on the OI5.

Are we supposed to flash all of these? If yes, in what order? Do we need to reboot between flashing each file? If we're only supposed to flash one of these, how are we to determine which one we need?
AT&T S5 is in a bootloop. It will boot up successfully, run for about 10-15 seconds, then spontaneously reboot. I've successfully re-flashed the phone using this guide, and have wiped cache and done a factory reset, but it still reboots after about 10-15 seconds. I'm hopeful that flashing one/all of the files on this thread will fix the problem. All data on the phone is wiped, so I can try anything. I'm just trying to salvage the phone so that I give it to one of my kids for graduation.

Thanks GitHub coders
Hello XDA Fam, I've come to you for help.
Before it is asked, I did search around forums/threads but I really do have a hard time navigating around this site. And from what I seen there was no answers that I needed. Currently my Moto X4 XT1900-7 which I believe is on a factory image, no longer connects to my carrier. It is able to tell me the actual carrier but that's about it. The reason why I ask is because I'm on a completely stock image that's been updated via OTA.
I believe I lost my IMEI, carrier connection ( call it what you will) and orientation ( when you rotate your phone) after flashing this rom https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x4/development/rom-pixel-experience-t3876195.
Since then I've been lost. Please if anyone has a recent up to date fix for this I'd be very keen to hear from you.
I've heard of injecting the IMEI, and tried but some guide I followed on XDA was unclear. And I'm not even sure if it would fix anything .. So again if you have a clear up to date guide on this, I'd be very appreciative.
Thankyou for your time to read through. Any info you may need I can try and provide. I hope that I haven't upset anyone with posting this in the wrong section. Or the fact that it's been asked before. If so you could attach a link for me to follow

Which ROM are currently on? Stock or any other? Also give your device model name(eg. XT1900-2 in my case)

You can try doing -
Flashing the firmware again(stock), then try locking and unlocking the bootloader again, then, installing PE or HavocOS or any other ROM you like.
Just give it a try!
