using root explorer go to system/framework folder copy framework.jar and framework.odex files to you internal sd card. move them to your pc then to the other rooted S4 in the same directory.

Hi guys

I bought i new galaxy s4 and now i want to know that what is the best (smooth but complete) and updated(lolipop) custom rom?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibuprophen:
There's a few options located in the S4 Android Development portion of XDA.

That's a hard question for others to answer since their personal preferences differ from yours.

Just to update...I did go with this. I had an initial problem with SuperSu not installing but was able to resolve it. So far everything is fine. And today was able to try pairing it with my car (phone only, didn't care about music) and it worked fine. And battery life...even though it has been mostly standby the last 2 days...is amazing so far! I still have a few apps to re-install and such, but so far so good. Thanks for chiming in with your experience!

You are very welcome!

I am happy you tried jdc's. My experience has been amazing; I can't but recommend it to anyone who will listen... The work they have done is great!

When I first started, I encountered my problems with, what I finally found out, was xposed, that I flashed by default... Hahahaha... It wouldn't even start!

I hope you have just a great experience as I've had

Okay, I noticed titanium backup not so compatible with adoptable storage. When I move the app to external in adoptable, my titanium backup can't detect it, it only show all apps in the internal storage, does there any way to make it detect the apps ?:confused:

Hello

My mom just received a used Samsung GT-I9505, but unfortunatly it was SIM-locked. So I googled a bit and found out (I think?) that you need to downgrade to 4.4.2 to be able to SIM-unlock again since the phone was 5.0.1

So I followed the guide in this thread on page 1, but in Odin I only get to

- aboot.mbn

- FAIL (Auth)

- Complete(Write) operation failed.

Any one knows what im doing wrong? The phone is in download mode, Ive tried different versions of Odin, tried different USB-ports and different cables...

Would really appreciate some help. thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jacen Solo 95:
So a kinda dumb question, but on the CF Auto-Root page there are 2 options for the GT-I9505.

jfltevj and jfltexx

What's the difference, if any? I am already rooted, using the the jfltexx file, but I was just wondering.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
It fails because you're trying to downgrade. You can thank Samsung for that.

It is possible to downgrade in some cases. I think it requires a particular firmware or something, I don't really know.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
The only person with an answer to this is probably Chainfire himself.

I, personally, never heard of jfltevj. And googling it doesn't give much info either, except stuff related to CF-Auto-Root.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibuprophen:
They are both the same GT-I9505 devices but, the only difference is that the JFLTEVJ was released just prior to the JFLTEXX as seen (below) by the Build ID numbers. I also provided a link to the specification details of each one.

JFLTEVJ Build ID: LRX22C.I9505VJUHOK1

JFLTEVJ Device Details

JFLTEXX Build ID: LRX22C.I9505XXUHOJ2

JFLTEXX Device Details

Bottom Line... Both of them are the same thing and are currently compatible with each other.

If i'm wrong with any/all of this, then can someone else point it out and elaborate so I can, personally, also take note.

Peace and Love!

How's yours?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
Then it's either an app that uses too much or the battery is fake.

Did you buy the battery yourself or did the seller say that the battery is new and you decided to take his word?

My battery is 2+ years old and I can get around 4 hours screen-on time. Granted, I try to take good care of it. e.g., No overnight charging and no overcharging.

Same differences as with other real vs fake products.

Cheaply built, lower quality, worse performance and shorten life span due to it's cheap materials and build quality.

All fake products are the same, doesn't matter if it's a phone, shoes or batteries.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] walttheboss:
I live in China where fake things abound. "Fake" normally means that it is made to look identical on the outside but NOT made by Samsung. Very cheap internals. Here there are several levels of fakes. Good ones can be OK and very hard to tell the difference. A fake battery may only have 50 % the capacity and only recharge a few hundred times.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibuprophen:
That's called Generic...

I'm not stating that you don't know what your talking about but, you do realize that the Samsung batteries are also made in China too.

I've seen bad generics and great ones too. I, personally, have a generic brand of a GS3 Samsung battery and it has been performing really great.

Just be careful where you get them too. I got mine on ebay and after looking at, and comparing, the different seller's feedback, i grabbed a really great one for a great price.

There are items that need to be the brand name and there are those items that generics can perform just as good or even better but, I always state for individuals to do your homework and most of all... Buyer Beware... LOL!!!

Best of Luck!

Battery calibration is a complete myth/placebo proven by a Google developer 5 years ago.

https://www.xda-developers.com/goog...-battery-stats-does-not-improve-battery-life/
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
If a battery has "Samsung" written on it, but wasn't actually made by Samsung, then it's called FAKE.

Trust me, I've seen fake batteries.

There is a difference between fake batteries and no-name batteries.

A friend used a fake battery (Had Samsung written on it), after less than a year it started to bulge and lost its capacity to hold the charge. It also had no NFC antenna.

I'm pretty sure all original Samsung S4 batteries have an NFC antenna. So the missing antenna on my friend's battery was a dead giveaway that it was fake.

How do I know the antenna was missing? Because NFC didn't work.

How do I know it was the battery and not the software or phone itself that created the NFC problem? Because after we got an actual original battery, NFC worked.

Also, this new battery still works fine after more than a year and a half of usage.

Most products today are made in China. Probably because it's cheaper.

But that doesn't change the fact that there is a difference between fake and real products, even though they are all made in China.

That difference is build quality.

I told you before, fake products are made with low quality materials and are put together with as little cost as possible.

On the other hand, original products have to meet certain conditions and be of a certain quality.

Let's be serious, would you say a fake S7 is as good as an original S7? Don't think so.

Same applies to batteries and other fake products.

No-name stuff, or "generic" as you call it, is a different situation. Those are just brands that aren't very well known, but they still offer a certain quality.

Oh, and one more thing.

The battery I'm using, and I know 100% is original, says the cell was made in Malaysia and assembled in Vietnam.

The original battery my friend is using also says the same.

The fake battery my friend was using simply said "Made in China".

So, yeah, fake batteries definitely exist.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davypacheco:
Yeah, my battery is faulty, the phone is used but they give me 3 months of warranty anyway so I'll go and tell them, the batterys behavior is crazy
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibuprophen:
Those Warranties are a big lifesaver too!

Here's a little "Fun Fact"...

When it comes to electronics, i always keep 2 things in mind:

1) There's always a chance for defects when it comes to electronics (and you gotta love the warranty too).

2) The average "out of date" cycle, at this point of time, is approximately 3-6 months. This means that whatever the electronic item you purchased today, there's an upgrade to that technology anywhere from 3-6 months.

I wish you the Best of Luck my Friend!

Just found the Verizon i545 running 5.0.1.

Need root. Have no access to pc at this time.

I've read around that king root may work (towel root didnt), but I noticed that the method for uprooting king root requires a windows pc. Previously I worked with an Alcatel fierce xl and removing king root involved files from w0lfdroid enabled in terminal emulator. Is there a known method for doing this procedure? I essentially need basic root to improve battery, improve greenify, and maybe xposed mods... Any thoughts out there? Thank you
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
Avoid KingRoot, KingoRoot, and pretty much any one of those 1-click wonder root methods. They either don't work or they give you more work than you bargained for.

Some of them also install adware.

But that's not your biggest issue. Your problem is that the device is from Verizon, and they usually lock the bootloader, which means it's harder to root.

The even bigger issue is that it is running lollipop, which means that it may be impossible to root due to the fact that they possibly patched all previous exploits used to obtain root.

There's a whole subforum dedicated the the Verizon S4, so you may want to take a look at that for further information on the subject.
