hi

do you read me ?

all i write you is the right i come like you from 4.2.2

with the zip of wanam you will not flash bootloader.

i gave you like for script who remove the knox app, if you not remove them no probleme you can stop the notification with the wanam xposed.

so do not worry about flashing wanam...

the only thing you must considere is to do an nandroid backup coz when uyou flash wanam you may have no sound issue...

best regard
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] dbenyakar:
Timekeeper, of course, if you install stock via ODIN or via OTA you will install the bootloader however since we are in Wanamlite forum under development section of i9500, my comment was only if I install Wanamlite rom and no other OTA. My facts are correct.

kondronaute, thank you for the script and the info.

I just wish this was better clarified by the developer in the opening page. The fact that the Knox existence or not is kept being asked over and over means that this information is not clear.

Finally thanks for answering, but did you wipe your device before flashing the ROM?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Blue_Ray:
If u come from stock rom, wipe or no wipe is ok. but i suggest just wipe ur phone to avoid any conflict. if u come from wanamlite, go ahead with no wipe.

Unnecessary. I didn't wipe, flashed WanamLite 4.3 on top of stock 4.2.2. Works perfectly.

Screenshots work fine (swipe across the screen). v3.4 MK8 ROM + MK8 modem had the best battery life for me. When I tried v3.4 + MK9 modem, I had some pretty bad battery drain. Flashed back to MK8 modem and all is well.

More Performance? New version of touchwiz? Battery friendly? More optimization? There's always something to be done,otherwise what's the point of custom roms and new builds every 3-4 weeks
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] cmd512:
You're missing my point: I wasn't questioning why there would NEVER be a new release for XXX device.

BUT, you can't deny the fact that the major, non-region specific 4.3 releases for i9500 have slowed down dramatically in the last few months. This usually happens when they've optimized a device to a point where there are little returns from that point. After owning SGS, SGS2, SGS3, and now an SGS4, I can say WanamLite v3.4 MK8 + MK8 modem has been the most stable, best performing, and best battery life I've ever seen in a Samsung device. And, this is coming from a person who's tried basically every aftermarket, "l33t" 3rd party ROM out there.

Would I be happy with another 2% increase in speed / smoothness? Sure, of course. But with a lack of any major bugs (WanamLite / 4.3 even fixed the "sudden drop to no signal from full bars" on 4.2.2), incredible uptimes where the device is still smooth even over 5 days of heavy usage, and no crashes, I'm thoroughly enjoying my device right now in good health and not desperately waiting for a new release like before. Hope this helps to clarify.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ark_ermali:
I agree with you.Let's wait for the 4.4.2 love to our device since 9505 already have it.Cheers

To Start it, u need flash stock rom 4.3 bcoz new bootloader. then u flash CWM And Root. :)

After That You Can Start Flashing Rom Wanam v3.5 :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] cmd512:
Wrong. Just install the latest Philz Recovery, boot into it, clear cache and Dalvik cache, and flash the latest WanamLite ROM. No wipe needed, I've done this on multiple 4.2.2 stock S4s already.

Absolutely no need to flash stock 4.3, in fact I'd recommend against it. You want to avoid that stock 4.3 bootloader, that's the one that will perm flag your device as modified.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] tom_car:
But for those of us with the i9500, as Triangle Away doesn't work, we will always have the counter increased.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but even with the old bootloader, ir you rooted/installed custom recovery, the counter would have increased, voiding the warranty.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] cmd512:
Yes, you are wrong, and may be confusing the matter further for the new users. To clarify, the modified / "Triangle Away" counter can be taken care of by just doing a clean wipe / re-install of stock ROM. There is no workaround for the Knox permanent counter to date.

The Knox permanent counter is set by the new bootloader, which is why WanamLite still includes the old one. So again, absolutely no reason to flash stock 4.3, unless you want to deal with all that Knox mess.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] tom_car:
I thought I read there was a hidden counter that couldn't be reset.

That isn't permanent, can be resolved with a reflash of 4.2.2 stock ROM. And, it has NOTHING to do with the permanent Knox flag from the stock 4.3 bootloader. What's your point?

AGAIN, don't flash the stock 4.3 ROMs unless you want to deal with the Knox permanent flag which will permanently void your warranty. Please take all other non-applicable discussions offline / PM me if you're still confused.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] tom_car:
My point is that by increasing the hidden binary counter (the one I poster links about) you already voided your warranty.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] cmd512:

Again, one is permanent, the other is not. Don't flash stock 4.3 ROMs unless you want to deal with the Knox PERMANENT flag mess.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] tom_car:
Have you done that? Is your hidden binary counter at 0? Where can I find that engineering bootloader?

Honestly, i don't see a reason to always keep the counter at 0.

For the warranty purpose there is a way to revert everything back:

1) flash official firmware through Odin

2) flash custom recovery with accessible mmcblk0boot0.

3) backup whole mmcblk0boot0

4) flash engineering bootloader

6) in any hex editor: reset the counter and flags in mmcblk0boot0 dump.

7) in recovery: flash the mmcblk0boot0 with your zero-counter dump. Don't reboot yet!

8) in recovery: flash recovery partition with official recovery. Don't reboot yet!

9) perform the factory reset.

10) reboot.

Now you have innocent I9500 device
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] cmd512:
I haven't needed to, but that doesn't mean you can't. Plus, you are WAY off topic. Let me clear up the original poster's question and my response so that someone like you can understand.

ORIGINAL QUESTION: What do I need to do to flash from 4.2.2 stock to WanamLite.

MY RESPONSE: No need to flash stock 4.3 ROM first, you can do a non-wipe flash directly. PLUS, you will get the Knox PERMANENT flag bootloader with the stock ROM step, which is something you want to avoid if at all possible.

===========

So, help me understand. Are you arguing the poster with the upgrade question SHOULD flash 4.3 stock first even though they don't need to? Are you saying they should go ahead and trip the permanent Knox flag to modified even though it's completely unnecessary for the upgrade from 4.2.2? Again, what's your point with regards to this WanamLite thread?

If you have more off-topic discussions, PM me. Otherwise, stay on point please.

This is a thread about WanamLite ROM, not an open forum for you to understand the difference between the Knox bootloader flag and the modified counter.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] tom_car:
I don't have a hard time understanding what you're saying.

I was just asking whether increasing the hidden binary counter (necesary to flash wanam and not resetable by flashing stock rom) voids the warranty (even if the knox bootloader is not flashed).

Just to make things clear if I'm on any 4.2.2 firmware without knox bootloader I'm safe flashing this rom.

Is there any know best modem or base firmware to start with or any is ok

Afaik, binary counter is reseteable by flashing stock firmware, some bytes are written in memory while knox flag is a complete diferent story it's an efuse "phisical" in the soc that can't be fixed no matter how good you are with hardware solderind or you can't fix that with software

[MENTION=4769053]tom_car[/MENTION],

to clear things up, there is no such thing as engineering bootloader for i9500.

in 4.2.2 bootloader, it only states "System Status" and "Binary Status" when you enter download mode. when both status changed to custom, you can always revert it to "Official" status by flashing official 4.2.2 firmwares via odin.

in 4.3 bootloader, you can see "System Status", "Binary Status" and "Warranty Bit" when you enter download mode. so.. if you root your phone, the warranty bit will change from "0" to "1" and there is no way to change it back. flashing old firmware (4.2.2) via odin also doesn't help because the new 4.3 bootloader will detect any downgrade attempt and stop the operation.

i hope that you're understand. and for others, this topic is for Wanamlite rom. you guys can find about this bootloader topic in General Section.
