android 4.3

first post from a n00b. I read the whole thread and I feel ready! Thank you everybody!

Question: I want to manually upgrade to 4.3 (didn't get it OTA yet) and I found some

good instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2145848

Right now I fit the Scenario 1, since my N4 is untouched. If I follow that guide to install

4.3 first, is there anything I need to change from the guide in the first post to unlock

and root afterwards? Or should I first unlock and root first and THEN install 4.3.

The only mention to this I found in this thread was about using a different zip for the SU

Thanks again!

UPDATE: I went ahead and unlocked, custom recover and root with 4.2.2. I'll update later.

The guide was awesome

Custom ROM

Is there a way to install a custom ROM without wiping the phone?

Thanks!

I've unlocked my bootloader and flashed CWM from: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager, I've flashed and didn't get any errors, boot to Android and did "adb reboot recovery", I get in a screen with the android with a red triangle, stayed for some mins and nothing, I turned off and boot to Android, turned off again and turn on by Power + Vol -, Select Recovery and samething...

How can I boot to recovery?

Another thing does SuperSU v1.51 works on Android 4.3?
[Nexus 4 General] spaceman860:
Reflash the custom recovery. The android laying down is stock recovery

Thanks! I'm getting ready to update to 4.3. So you're saying I can unlock and root 4.3 using the methods outlined by op? I just have to use SuperSU 1.41? Why not the market version or the latest version here http://download.chainfire.eu/345/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.51.zip ?

Also, out of curiosity, if the method is the same for 4.3, why are all the toolkits having a hard time updating for 4.3?

I'm a little skeptical about rooting my nexus 4 its running 4.2.2 and I am scared of bricking it. Can someone give me the chances of bricking my phone and give me some tips. -I'm a Noob

Thank you
[Nexus 4 General] DJBhardwaj:
No chance to brick :good:
[Nexus 4 General] shobuddy:
For the prerequisite step #7, OP has a link to a fastboot binary file. The Android SDK already has a fastboot binary file. Are we supposed to replace the SDK's file with OP's?
[Nexus 4 General] NeXuS_4_UsEr23:
thx

Thx a lot is there any tips or anything I should look out for
[Nexus 4 General] DJBhardwaj:
None as for now. But a lil advise, update to Jelly Bean 4.3 and then Root it :highfive:
[Nexus 4 General] DJBhardwaj:
No, actually the previous versions of SDK didn't comprise of the binaries. But, now they are so you don't need to replace. :cool:
[Nexus 4 General] NeXuS_4_UsEr23:
I still didn't get the update yet and I've been waiting for a time now. But I will wait till I get the update and thanks million, really! :)
[Nexus 4 General] shobuddy:
You could try this method: http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/how-to/google-android/3461225/get-android-43/

It worked for me.

What is the easiest way to root my nexus 4 that is running android 4.3
[Nexus 4 General] shobuddy:
For the rooting process in OP's instructions, does SuperSU have to be installed from custom recovery or can it be installed in normal android mode?
[Nexus 4 General] DJBhardwaj:
The same method as I mentioned in OP.

Custom Recovery is required :cool:
[Nexus 4 General] shobuddy:
I didn't have the SuperSU zip file downloaded to phone. After flashing TWRP, when I turned on the phone (not in custom recovery), it gave a message saying I am not yet rooted and to install SuperSU (was the message a function of TWRP?). I swiped OK but the phone just turned itself off. I turned it back on and got the same message again. This is where I forget exactly what I did. Since I didn't have SuperSU.zip downloaded, did TWRP download and install it since I already had wifi setup? Either way I have root so I'm happy but hope I didn't screw anything up while doing it.
[Nexus 4 General] DJBhardwaj:
You did everything fine. I would still prefer you to download the SuperSU zip (latest) and flash it because Root permissions with Android 4.3 is is very much different than that on the previous version.
[Nexus 4 General] shobuddy:
I think the current SuperSU is v1.51 which I currently have installed. Should I remove/uninstall SuperSU first and then flash or flash as is, over the current installation?

Hi there,

I wrote an app that makes it easy to flash a new recovery on your S4. It does require root.

Supported devices:

*GT-I9505

*GT-I9500

*GT-I9300

If your device isn't in the list above then the app wont be able to flash the recovery and it wont attempt to do so.

If you own a galaxy S3 or S4 and it isn't listed above then please install this app and press the Dump button so I can add support for that device.

The app supports the following filetypes:

*.img

*.tar

*.tar.md5

You can get it here:

Greetings,

Gamma91
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Sammath:
Used this to flash the twrp recovery.

The app works fine and is easy to use! Gj!
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Gamma91:
Thx for your reply :)

I will add support for all other s4 devices soon and kernel flashing support:)

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] agorny:
Unpack tar file downloaded from sgs4 oryginal android development. This tool work with *.img files.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] adyscorpius:
You can also flash kernels.

/dev/block/mmcblk0p9 is boot.img

/dev/block/mmcblk0p10 is recovery.img
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Gamma91:
mmcblk0p10 is the efs partition on the gt-i9505 so flashing the recovery on there would be a bad move.

I will add support for kernels within the next few hours.

And if I have the partition information of the other s4 devices I will add those to the app.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] adyscorpius:
It is the recovery partition on i9500.

Hi, I'm on cwm ex#4 and try to flash twrp 2.5...the app sais flashed img (I dezipped .tar because app didn't seen this extension ) but nothing change for me :(

I'm on djembey' modified kernel...and flashed cwm by odin ....is that the trouble?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] 4 Door Skyline:
Would this work on the sprint version?
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Gamma91:
The app currently doesnt support the SPH-L720. For that I would need the partition information of the phone ;)

You could help me by:

ADB Shell/Terminal Emulator:

su

cd /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name

ls -l

And giving me the output of that. Either with a screenshot or just by copying the text ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Gamma91:
Support added for:

*GT-I9300

*GT-I9500

Partition dump feature added(with this feature you can help me supporting your device)

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] thepoetvd776:
Does anyone know if you can transfer the squaretrade insurance?

Lets say I want to buy the s5 next year, meaning that I will only keep my s4 for 1 year. Will squaretrade allow me to transfer the warranty to whoever i sell it too?

Or will they give me cash back since I only used held on to the phone for a 1 year instead of 2?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] nba1341:
You have the option to transfer the warranty yes. Right when you log in it gives you an option to transfer warranty

Ooops:) My bad.

Well, CyanogenMod 10.1 for I9000 is even much more better then for I9001. It is way more stable, cause it's supported by Cyanogen Team officialy. Check their thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2039755

Also you can try MIUI. Great work. I was satisfied to have it on my I9001. I am sure it is better for I9000 (officially supported). Thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1548796&highlight=miui
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soryuu:
I agree with memokwf. Also, Slim Bean (4.1.2 or 4.2.2) are good choices. Fast, light (although you will need to flash in another file for email, its easily downloadable from their site though) and pretty damn good battery life as well.

It's possible to know the nickname(the owner) of an received bluettoth message or file(that was send from a XDA/QTEK a or a celular phone/Nokia)).

When you receive a message (sent via bluetooth) from someone, you don't know who sent you the message.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paparasee:
Hi Guys,

Got my phone in the second month after its release and have gone through n number of ROMS. Not sure if its that that has taken its toll or a bad ROM, but of late (since a month ago), my battery lasts about 1.5 hours if I switch on either 3G or Wifi. Turn them off and the phone runs fine ... maybe 8 plus hours ... maybe more, have not really checked.

Thinking it was a bad ROM, I went through many from 4.2.2 to 4.2.1 to 4.12 and 4.1 ... all with absolutely no change in battery life ... not even marginally.

Am thinking of getting the S4, but given that this one looks unblemished and as good as new, am thinking of getting a new battery and giving it to someone back home that would be pleased to have it.

Was therefore wondering ... could it be the phone or is it definitely the battery? Don't want to spend on a battery and end up with still having just about 1 hour of power.

Any input would be appreciated including what battery you'll think I should get. Are the original batteries still available for this phone or are we down to "the king is dead, long live the king" :)

In the past I read on this forum about some Mercury colored screen protectors for S3. And not only Mercury..you talked also about other brands. If you don't know Samsung now sell original colored screen protectors! They are way better than other ones. You can see Samsung logo, colors and quality of the screen are exactly the same as without this protector. I highly recomand it!

I can get links to the posts if needed, just on my device and would be easier from computer.

You are correct. I was looking around and noticed the same thing about the PIT file. I tried my computer at my office, and it could see my phone just fine.
