Hi
Sorry if I've posted this in the wrong place please feel free to move it to the appropriate place if need be

So, I have a S4 Active KOT49H.I9295XXUCNH2. It is/was rooted and was working fine, until I decided to get on the laptop and google how to modify system volume settings... Why???? I don't know, I wanted a louder speaker I suppose and man was that a big mistake. I downloaded these files (i will try to find the site i went to) installed and then reset my phone and BOOM it's stuck at the samsung flash logo thingee. I've tried the hard reset, battery removal, I've tried odin but my laptop is not connecting my phone now, it charges when plugged in to the usb but that's it. I've tried uninstalling and re installing samsung usb drivers but I get the "drivers were not successfully installed". Umm, I don't know what else to do.

Can anybody help me out? point me in the right direction please?

Thanks

You basically bricked your phone... The thing you can do is go on XDA forums and search for the Orginal Directory and files for your phone and download them... Make sure you get all of the software including Odin.. Then I recommend to use a computer with windows XP because in the old windows there are less restrictions on files which allows you to get through some things..
