Its posible once you get the odin file from any other carrier, once you insert the sim card the phone would identify the network acording to the módem.

I did that with my sold S3 moving it to Iusacell, bit right now there's no ROM available for other carriers but Telcel in Mexico.

It is possible to unlock the Telcel S4 with stock firmware from telcel, i unlock it and i am still on stock, and i have used my US ATT sim Card with no Problem. You Just need to use the free unlock method described in this forum under s4 general. It dosent Matter that it is hard locked it still works.

Do I need the kernel?

I saw a video on another site and it just shows the guy flashing the stock rom not the second file the OP has which is the kernel. Do we need it to revert back to 100% factory as if it was just out of the box? if not why would one want the kernel? Thanks

just wanted to say thanks!

been having some stability issues since installed twrp and rooted (when id restart or power down and then boot up again, phone would hang at galaxy s4 logo, only way to get back was to do a format data in twrp, was random as i couldn't replicate the issue consistently, sometimes would boot up fine then sometimes wouldn't :/), flashed everything back to stock rogers now to see if the same problems occur with no root and stock firmware, hopefully i don't see any of the problems and can get a successful root and twrp second time around

Thanks for the OP.

Is there an easy way to make the stock kernel flashable in custom recovery instead of Odin? Similar to the custom kernels? Looking for the bell stock kernel in a flashable zip.

I have done some searching and have also asked Google but no luck.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mymusicathome:
Noticed that twrp has an option to back up the kernel so restoring that will get me by.

On another note... can I Odin a Rogers stock onto a i337M from bell? Basically turning it into a Rogers i337M?

Sent from my GT-I9505
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] neysito:
Yes you can, but there is a easier way, no flashing need it. Changing the csc on the hidden phone menus from bell to rogers, or fido or telus will change it fully to that carrier, including the bloat that comes with the carrier you are changing it to. Keep in mind I has to factory reset the phone in the process, reboot. Se it up again. Done.

Basically the rom has the full support for all the carriers supported in that model but it only activates one carrier at a time. Depending on what you set on the csc menu, there's a code to enter that menu button I can't remember the now. Google it

i337m kernel

I was hoping to try Clean rom, they suggested using a kernel for Canadian i337m which is what i have with telus. I am rooted and have cwm recovery installed...any suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ckitching:
The MTS (MTA) firmware is identical to the Sasktel (BWA) firmware. I did a reset on mine, and compared the Sasktel firmware to the firmware files Kies downloaded. Both SS_DL.dll and I337MVLUAMDJ_I337MOYAAMDJ_I337MVLUAMDJ_HOME.tar.md5 are identical. The container ZIP is a bit different, but I assumed it was just repacked before being posted.

I assume I can also install one of these on the AT&T SGH-I337?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blyndfyre:
I wouldn't see why not, so long as you LOKI.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mxpxboi:
Is there an easy way to do that, I looked it up and it seems confusing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blyndfyre:
Actually I think in your case you may need a flashable zip version of the firmware, so that you can flash an AT&T Kernel and LOKI directly after.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mxpxboi:
You don't think the Telus firmware would work?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blyndfyre:
Well, I am on Telus but I haven't actually had to flash back to stock yet, kinda hopping between a few ROMs right now, and if I every have to i'll just restore my Nandroid backup; so I have never downloaded the stock firmware posted in the OP yet.

If the stock firmware is a .tar file then I don't think you will be able to flash it with Odin because you won't be able to LOKI it. If the stock firmware is a flashable .zip then you may be able to flash it from recovery, followed by flashing an AT&T Kernel (ktoonez for example) and LOKI.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mxpxboi:
So what does LOKI actually do, I assumed once I did it I could flash anything via ODIN.

If not do you know of any close to Telus stock flashable zips?

I mainly want no carrier boot animation and the default mobile hot spot, AT&T controls theirs and makes you pay for it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jd1639:
Just to clear up some confusion, the stock firmware is a .tar.md5 file which can only be flashed with odin. This will return you to stock with the stock recovery. EDIT, the firmware you download will be a zip, but don't let that confuse you. You need to extract the tar file out of it for it to be usable.

All .zip roms can only be flashed in your recovery. And remember to flash the correct kernel after flashing the rom if you have a locked boot loader, ie, need Loki.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mxpxboi:
Does LOKI allow me to flash a different stock ROM via ODIN?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jd1639:
You can only flash the stock firmware for your specific device. You don't need loki. Only use Odin if you need to return your phone to its original condition. Either to return it or if you've soft bricked to the point that that is your only option.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blyndfyre:
I'm not sure about SGH-i337 because i'm on SGH-i337m, but I can flash any canadian stock ROM that I want, probably because my bootloader is unlocked.

---------- Post added at 08:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:29 AM ----------

LOKI allows you to flash .zip files to the device by patching/hacking the bootloader since it is locked and wouldn't allow it otherwise.

Telus stock is nice in that there is no boot animation, but to avoid all this hassel with flashing with ODIN, why don't you try a ROM like MDOB or GOLDENEYE, these are both TouchWhiz based so all your Samsung apps will work, as well as taking care of LOKI and allowing WiFi hotspot as far as I know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jd1639:
No. The Loki hack is only used when flashing custom roms with a custom recovery.

Hey guys I'm hoping someone here can help me.... I live in Alaska and I'm trying to find a stock rom, although I am not new to flashing I am new to non-international devices. When I type I'm *#1234#* my Csc says 1337ATTAMDB, I don't not have att though what would be my actual three letter csc number and which stock firmware can I run? Right now I believe my phone is unbranded from the store there are no boot animations or bloat from anyone only Samsung start up screen.

Anything helps guys I definitely would like to know what my CSC code is........
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blyndfyre:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Kjc99:
It's GCI but when I use some apps such as rom manager it says I have ltecan Galaxy S4 Bell? What ever that means.... My carrier is an unlocked gsm network however the rom they put on my phone tjey did not add the stock video player so that's why I'm trying to flash a stock rom with no extra carrier stuff

---------- Post added at 11:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 AM ----------

Which download from the Op has just Samsung boot animation and no carrier bloat? Should I just flash the Bell version? Also does anyone have the stock video player apk that's what I'm really after

Thanls
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blyndfyre:
The Bell version will have the stock video player, shouldn't have much carrier bloat or the carrier boot animation. My phone is Telus stock and it only has Samsung boot animation and only one bloatware app called 'app house', as well it has the stock video player.

I'd say flash the Bell one and you will be good to go. If you are ltecan then these firmwares will all work on your device. Try them all if you like :P
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Kjc99:
Thanks for the info I flashed and low and behold the video player is on their... I guess my carrier when removing bloatware deleated video apk.... I'm wondering why my carrier is selling Canadian S4's anyway here in Alaska
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blyndfyre:
Try using Titanium Backup to freeze the bloatware, reboot, test your important apps and functionality and then procede to delete the bloat. That way if you find something malfunctioning or missing you can simply thaw it out with Titanium Backup.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Kjc99:
Thanks for your help I did that last night... I have a nice clean rom now........ On a different note I'm reading that i337m phones can use i9505 roms is that true has anyone tried? I've been an Omega Rom fan since my S2 days and for the last year on my S3.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blyndfyre:
Yes you can use GT-i9505 roms and I have tried out Omega myself and other i337m users have confirmed that Omega works as well.

Once you flash the i9505 ROM it is likely you will have to flash Adam Kernel or Faux Kernel directly after. I have only tried with Adam Kernel and it works fine, Adam Kernel also supports extFAT SD cards now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] force70:

What's your opinion on flashing the Bell model with the Telus Kernel?

So I flashed my Bell I337m with a stock i9505 rom and I can't get WiFi working.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Kjc99:
You have to use a i337m kernel also I have tried some t-mobile ones too.... Look in the Op of t-mobile kernels first before flashing

Galaxy S4
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mxpxboi:
Yeah I was aware of that, I tried flashing the Bell and Telus kernels listed in this collection and they didn't work, I tried things over and over all night, finally I ended up using Adam Kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Kjc99:
I'm on Omega right now and would like to try a new kernel is Adam for i337m or i9505?

Hi, probably a stupid question, I'm pretty new at this. What's the difference between the 2 different files to download ("Download Link" and "Download Kernel") and which do I need if I want to reinstall the stock firmware? I see that the Kernel is a much smaller file and I think it's the other one (1.6GB) that I would need, is that right? I still have stock on my phone, just want to be ready in case I have to reset to stock in the future.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] zild8:
download link is the operating system ,kernel and modem,

download kernel is the kernel !!!! they extract the kernel from the first file.

kernel is like a controler for cpu wifi...........

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Jashyk:
Dumb question, sorry guys.

I'm running CM10.1, having flashed it shortly after I got the phone in June. It still has the Koodo MDJ baseband. I understand CM uses its own kernel so I don't want to mess with that, but I wouldn't mind updating the baseband to this newer one(MG1) if it was possible, hopefully improving my LTE signal.

Would I have to flash this newer stock version of the image first so the baseband gets updated and then flash back to CM(which wouldn't touch the baseband)? I don't have any data to lose, so I wouldn't care about wiping everything, but if this newer baseband wouldn't do anything for me then its probably not worth the trouble.

You are on an I337M device right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Kjc99:
Yes I have a i337m is the Bell firmware unbranded? Or which one has the least amount of carrier extras it's weird because I don't live in Canada yet my carrier is selling this model phone all I know is when in rom manager it says jfltecan Bell thanks for your help I'm glad to finally have update I'm used to international models
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blyndfyre:
It's quite possible since i337m was all spotted to Canada that they included your region. Who is your service provider? I believe the Telus firmware has the least carrier bloat; I can confirm it contains only one which is an app called AppHouse and can be disabled without root.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Kjc99:
Ok thanks for your help my carrier is called GCI wireless... Which I don't think anyone outside if Alaska has heard of... I'm gonna try the Telus firmware... I did try the Virgin mobile one so I guess it's safe to assume they will all work with this phone? Do you know if they all flash the same modem I definitely don't want to screw up my service some how

P. S. Are any of the Op firmwares totally unbranded?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blyndfyre:
Never heard of GCI either.

If you flash a modem that doesn't get you service you could just flash back to one that does. I believe Telus and Bell use the same modem.

Not sure if any OP formats are unbranded, but Tells only has one bloat and no branded boot screen.

Hey guys,

Noob here with this stuff so just a quick question. I rooted my phone, and installed the CM Rom on my phone. I attempted to unlock my phone with an unlock code but it didn't work, if I flash it back to stock rom would that help? Probably wrong place to ask... but was looking over the stock roms here and downloaded one, wanted to make sure before I flashed it back.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blyndfyre:
It should work no problem with stock. That being said, just make a Nandroid backup from recovery before you flash. After you flash and whether unlock code works or not, you can install a custom recovery again and restore back to where you were with CM.
