Did you had factory reset?
and which case in bootloop?
cyanogenmod bootanimation loop? or bootlogo loop?
Thanks.
I did factory reset.
It's stuck on the blue robot face with a white transparent circle growing and disappearing. Tried to flash again with odin but same. And i've no access to recovery.
EDIT: I do have access to recovery if I restart the phone

Gonna try flashing it now.

Following advice in AndroidGX's other ROM thread, I'm gonna do a data, cache and dalvik wipe before flashing my carriers latest firmware which is ANK5 from the EE network in the UK.

After I've flashed that, I'll do another full data, cache and dalvik wipe before flashing this ROM in order to minimise any errors.

Are you able to flash back to stock?
I've to download the stock firmware from sammobile and it's so slow (1hour remaining! ). Do you know where i can download it fast freely ?
EDIT: I'm using Kies: download is a lot faster than with odin+sammobile

If you're okay using G901FXXU1ANK3_G901FEVR1ANK1_EVR then I can up it to Mega for you now if that is allowed within the rules? If not then I apologise.

EDIT: Can someone give me a list of stuff that needs testing if I do flash successfully?

EDIT: Android reached the Upgrading Apps X out of X stage...

It bootlooped. Looking at every other CM12 install video, they all use a .zip that is flashed from the phone itself.

Could Odin be causing these bootloops?

Flash to stock was successful, no damage done other than Knox 0x1 but I already had that anyway and I don't care about it.

PHONE WILL NOT BOOT PAST SAMSUNG LOGO AT ALL NOW D:

UPDATE: Phone initially bootlooped, battery pulled, reset data/cache in Recovery and now it booted stock.
1. Wiped Data/Cache in Recovery
2. Rebooted directly to Download Mode
3. Flashed G901FXXU1ANK3_G901FEVR1ANK1_EVR
4. Wiped Data/Cache in Recovery
5. Rebooted directly to Download Mode
6. Flashed CM12 Odin
7. Android is Upgrading Apps screen reached, bootloop after this.
8. Repeat steps 1 to 4
9. Phone boots back to stock firmware, bootloop without repeating step 4.

Hows your XNOX counter?
It was 0x1 before I flashed this ROM. I don't care at all about my Knox counter, my warranty covers my phone regardless of it's Knox state so I'm more than happy to flash this, that and anything else regardless of it's effect on my Knox counter if it means it would be produce results for getting CM12 on our phones.

I'm dying for the Stock Lollipop experience with this phone.

5.0.2 samsung stock for the 901f is now available in nordic countries. you can use that as a base no?
Samsung firmwares are based on their own android source code. Cyanogenmod is based on pure AOSP... So completely different. Although now Samsung has released the kernel source code for 5.0 g901f along with binaries it should be easier to build CM12 now.

Edit: actually they haven't released the source code just yet

ahh, I didn't know they hadn't released source yet. that's kinda what I meant though.
still sounds like a step in the right direction. imagine a 5.02 build, bloat-free on that hardware. should fly.
