Help! I did something stupid.

I was using safestrap to try and install a custom rom, I wiped my stock rom but my phone ended up dying (I didn't see that the charger wasn't plugged in) now I can't do anything at all. IT just gets stuck on the samsung galaxy s5 logo. I cannot flash any AP I just get an auth failed error. I tried using the G900AUCU3BOC4_OneClick but I get an error on that as well. Please help me.

You don't get the Safestrap screen at startup? Try starting in download mode and reflashing the stock ROM, rooting, installing busybox, installing Safestrap and doing the ROM restore or install again. (After making that mistake a dozen times, you won't even have to think about how to fix it - you'll have a small SD card with everything you need on it, just in case. Trust me - I can't count the number of times I've installed Safestrap after having to reflash the ROM - on the same phone. One senior millisecond and the phone's toast.)

That's my point, I can't reflash to stock rom I get an AUTH failed error.

In post #1, do you mean to say that you wiped the stock OS for your phone?
