I can confirm that this works on build JDQ39.I9505XXUAMDE. I can now check for software updates and download mode shows "Samsung Official." Root still works as expected!

Works with Australian Vodafone device I9505DVUAMD8...

And a stupid question:o It is a way to un-root?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] nrd\:
I messed up, someone please help!

I flashed this root but stupidly used odin v.3, now on boot its says to connect to Kies.

this is odin message

<ID:0/004> Added!!

<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..

<ID:0/004> File analysis..

<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/004> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/004> Removed!!

<ID:0/004> There is no PIT partition.

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

I used odin 3.07 to root it (i know im stupid!).

now i have tried to flash stock rom v.185 odin but same, it dosent flash.

Can anyone help? I can access download mode, its reads custom. Any help would be appreciated. Im probably the first person to brick a 2 day old s4!!

Try to flash Recovery again or in some cases F.Reset is required. After that all will be back to OFFICIAL.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kapteg92:

Yes it does, unfortunately.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kapteg92:
[MENTION=623147]guitardoc64[/MENTION]; are you sure? Because if it erases all the data the phone can't still be rooted.

Does F. reset time just reset the counter of flash instead?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] DjeMBeY:
Hmmm.... Not sure about that...

To both of you,

1. use Odin,

2. download any STOCK ROM you wish from www.sammobile.com or www.samsung-updates.com except for MDM or MDN builds as they CAN'T be rooted using this method.

3. flash your New ROM (perform F.Reset if possible)

4. Root it with Chainfire CF AutoRoot

5. Make sure you're rooted

6. use my MOD to reset Status to OFFICIAL.

7. enjoy! :)

[MENTION=4398524]djembey[/MENTION],

As i said i was already on stock rom XXUAMDF.

Then i rooted successfully with Chainfire CF AutoRoot.

Then i try your MOD but i still get system status custom no matter i flash your mod via odin. So it does not seems to work with every stock rom.

[MENTION=3178968]tata_brada[/MENTION],

I will try that but is it safe? What are "Enterprise SysScope" and "SysScope" doing?

thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] tata_brada:
It works for me. You do not delete this 2 apps, only wipe apps data ... so I think it is not un-safe. But, everything here you do on your own risk. Obviusly that app are connected with system status ..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] DjeMBeY:
I know what I'm saying and it DOES WORK!

Today I've flashed mine with STOCK XXUAMDF (annoying notifications in MDM are on my nerves), rooted it with CF and then flashed my MOD.

I used 3.07, and it worked fine for flashing CF-Auto-Root (didn't do the recovery reflash as I'm not bothered by the custom status)

For some reason I felt the need to use a later Odin - despite 1.85 being included the CF-Auto-Root package. Thinking back, I have no idea why - living dangerously..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Lumsdoni:
Please could someone explain the following as it's been ages since I last rooted.

TO use ODIN I assume I have to install drivers?

Do I install KIES first and plug in the phone and wait for PC to install drivers?

Should I then uninstall KIES to avoid conflicts or will it run alongside ODIN?

Many thanks.

Have used ODIN in the past successfully, but have since got a new PC and no idea what I did last time to install it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] digiblogger:
No.

I think you habe just the end all processes of Kies when running odin (I think it´s because of the risk, that both use the USB-Drivers)

i did it that way:

1. Firmware on my phone "XXUAMDE" (DBT)

2. OTA to "XXUAMDM" (DBT)

3. Flashed your Modded-CF-Autoroot via Odin

Now i have rooted XXUAMDM (DBT) with all my CSC folders and

So, maybe if i have some free time today, i will test your updated Hybrid Rom with separate CSC.

YES, Chainfire's Triangle Away from here https://play.google.com/store/apps/...leaway&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd

It will reset Binary Counter to 0 but ONLY after you use my MOD to reset System to OFFICIAL, otherwise the counter will stay 1

By chance... I've installed it and it worked..... :)

I thought that because there's no Counter in Download Mode it won't be here at all but I was wrong.....

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] DjeMBeY:
Did you used my OFFICIAL STATUS MOD?? You must flash it with Odin after you've successfully rooted your phone. The last step is to use Chainfire's TRIANGLE AWAY because I9505 have HIDDEN BINARY COUNTER, you can't see it in Download Mode but it's there and keep counting....

As I said, by accident, I've posted my opinion about it, that it DOESN'T have one, but someone in this thread suggested that it can have a hidden one...

So, I've scratched my head, installed TA and voila!!! MotherF***ers!!!

Thanks to Chainfire we don't have to be worry any more, his TA works like charm... but only after you apply my MOD... otherwise it will stay on CUSTOM and binary counts 1

TESTED :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mathieulh:
Indeed, mine is already back to 0 :) Triangle Away will be able to tell precisely how far your counter has gone, assuming the device is rooted of course. We have to thank Samsung for keeping the counter at the same partition as on its previous phones. Makes me wonder why they bothered to hide it in the first place...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] digiblogger:
Hi djembey,

first of all: thank you very much for your modifications (chainfire too) and for your great guidance through these procedures.

Everything is fine now. MDM is rootet, status is official, counter is 0

I am a little worried for future Knox functions because we deleted knox files throughout the flash procedure, but I think if Samsung activates Knox, we have to update our S4s and Root them again (with hope, Knox will let us ;))

Bautiful work.

Thanks again
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] mathieulh:
On a side note, GT-I9500 users should not use Triangle Away until support has been added to their devices, unless they fancy the risks to own a fancy paperweight.

sorry 1st Samsung, finding it tricky, it's a very different process.

will this now work on mdm then?

I have mdf updated to mdm.

I have UK model on three network. is this firmware posted(where?) or added into the download (unsure how this has been packaged)

please don't get annoyed and tell me it's in previous posts, I do read but it's different to what I'm used to, I'm trying to learn before I root so any help will be appreciated by me and, I'm sure, by anyone confused and in the same boat as me.

explanations of things, like:

cf-root, process

what is triangle away

I thought i9505 had no counter, but I have seen it mentioned a few times so does it have one and how does it affect me

does odin (or cf-root :s) need to be used all the time? can a Samsung be flashed via custom recovery.

what are the key combos for bootloader. (recovery download mode fastboot ect...)

any info that's relevant that I missed.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] digiblogger:
Hi.

don´t worry.

I am from Germany and rooted my MDM without any issues yesterday.

The process is easy.

1. Use the modified CF-Autoroot (djembrey) to Root MDM

2. Use the Recovery md5 (djembrey) to set status back to official

3. Remove battery, set it it again, status official now

4. Use triangle away to set the counter back to zero.

5. Rename two folders and delete four files (djembrey) to get rid of anoying messages

as said, it works on MDM - if something is unclear, don´t hesitate to ask ;)

CF Root = ChainFire Root => method to give super user access to user and those rooting apps

Triangle Away is an App by Chainfire, that sets the flash counter back to 0. the flashcounter will rise everytime you flash your device (for suppport/guarantee purposes), so it is nice to have a tool to let them think, you still have guarantee

Yes, you can flash prerooted md5-images

Official status makes your phone compatible to OTA and Kies. If Status is custom, you will not get updates without odin

Flash Counter: It exists. I used triangle away from Google Play and opened. Status was: 1. Then, I used triangle and it is zero now. tha flashcounter still exists, but he is no longer visible to the user in recovery/download mode. we don´t know why.. its the first time without a visual flash counter.

Maybe... someone else can tell you something about fastboot^^ I will learn too ;)

EDIT: If I understand it right, you need to root the phone again, when you apply official updates. Wish to have a method to let the s4 be rootet with the possible to apply official updates without los of root ;)
