Sorry, no downgrades. Ever! New aboot.mbn is there to stay. Take wife's phone as your own. Discipline your child. :D He must know his way around phones since technically you shouldn't be able to get ona while rooted.

Root and lose warranty and keep going, take a hit on the market and get new phone... See still lots of options. Just none of them good.

Sorry for your loss.

Anyways if you want second phone on 4.3 while being able to roll back, you can do it via mobile Odin and custom kernel.

ok, thanks for the info

can i root using the post "[SGH-I337M] CF-Auto-Root [CANADIAN MODELS ONLY]"

does it change the knox counter to 1 if i do?

still have warranty till may 14
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] crzygrmn:
If you're on the new 4.3 upgrade. Yes it will trip knox counter and your warranty ends today. Forever. Unless some smart dev finds something to reset knox to 0x0
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Idan73:
Then again, if your phone survived thus far, chances are it will, till may as well. If I were you, I'd root warranty or not.

Like said in previous post, root is possible, but it will trip Knox.

This version have been sent via OTA to I337M devices from Carrier CLARO Puerto Rico.

I do have two questions:

1. On 4.2.2 rooted and do found Knox v1.0, this affect device warranty?

2. If I update to 4.3 and loose root privileges, can the device be rooted again?

Best regards
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Jose0726:
What version did you receive via ota from claro? I337MVLUEMK6 is not a claro rom. It was posted on another forum as safe for installing on claro thou but once you do you cant go back to stock 4.2. 4.3 updates bootloaders so when you go back to 4.2 you get an error "Kernel Seandroid isnt reinforcing etc"..wifi doesnt toggle on and some other issues...plus you get knox counter on so once you root warranty is over...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] user787:
Wel l not received an ota notification as device is rooted... dont knlw which version is safe just know what I read on "yosoyandroid" forum...

About warranty I think already will not be an issue any more. I do search and carrier / manufacturer / insurance claims are too difficult to fill a claim and/or expensive to replace. Better just sell of the device as used an complete to buy a new one...

Will try to upgrade to 4.3 once I receive my new microSD (64GB).

Hoping someone could help me out, I updated to the latest Rogers 4.3 Rom MK6 yesterday via Odin as I was on a custom rom. When I attempt to root via motochopper it is now telling me Knox is blocking the root. Is there a way around this or do I have to wait it out?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Reyland:
My opinion ; I don't think we should flash the new 4.3 firmware right now, I think we should let devs take some time working with the Knox thing, besides if you are rooted in a 4.2 rom just update the baseband to a 4.3 one and then flash a 4.3 rom and you will not have problems with Knox, that's what I did, I'm using MDOOB rom which is based on a i337m 4.3 firmware and everything works fine. If you still want to use Odin to upgrade your firmware, consider flashing the original 4.2 base to your phone first and root again to use triangle away apk to reset the flashing counter then use Odin to upgrade to 4.3 base, I think that's the right way to do it. Just my 2 cents!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] :
use CFroot, but I would wait if I were you. You may never be able to get 4.4 (kitkat) if you root your phone (4.3 official with Knox) according some people here.

Hi there. I updated my rogers s4 to 4.3. Then I rooted with cf auto root. Something went wrong with a rom I was using and wanted to go back to stock 4.3 rom. I found a update (the one on hot file) but when I used odin to flash, and it passed, my phone had bell preloaded app. Everything works (after I added some APN). I'm trying to find a true 4.3 stock rom for rogers s4. Sammobile had same wrong stock rom. Can anyone help please

<MOD EDIT> [MENTION=4700254]camsurf[/MENTION]: Please do not post your questions across multiple forums, as per Rule 5
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] howipig:
camsurf,

All the Canadian I337M stock ROMs are Multi-CSC i.e. essentially the same; the only difference is that the CSC it picks. If you insist, you can change it from BMC to RWC by dialing *#272*IMEI# (where the IMEI can be found by dialing *#06#).

However, it will wipe your user data after changing the CSC!

The Telus MK6 update seriously F'd up my device.

No matter how many times I flash my device, in whatever way, the MK6 firmware has resulted in my wifi and phone not working properly.

My wifi toggle does not work (it does not activate), and my phone freezes and is unable to make calls. Cellular data works just fine though.

CM10.2 works fine...I wanted to make sure my hardware wasn't ruined somehow.

Attempting to downgrade back to 4.2.2

---------- Post added at 04:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:37 PM ----------

Downgrading via Odin worked just fine (not sure why people say they can't downgrade, wasn't even using a custom recovery at the time). All stats show the MG1 firmware, nothing from MK6 remaining behind.

Will attempt now to upgrade via OTA update, rather than the full firmware from samsung-updates.com
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] hubble6:
So looks like hotfile got taken down, are they any working mirrors up?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] howipig:
funkydude101,

I did experience the same WiFi issue when I used Mobile ODIN to flash mine but solved it by remove the SuperSU and flash it again with ODIN.

I would rather trust the USB cable with ODIN more than the OTA...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] funkydude101:
I tried that and didn't work for me unfortunately.

The OTA update worked. As did CF-Autoroot in 4.3.

Take out your SIM card first before changing the CSC

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Spacemonkie4207:
Have you checked APN settings?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] howipig:
camsurf,

Something is fishy... I do not know what exactly your stock ROM inside or something new in the MK6. Again, all the authentic Canadian stock ROMs are the same with Multi-CSC. When I first put in a TELUS SIM card into a brand new Bell GS4 and put in the unlock code, it rebooted, went into Recovery console, changed itself from BMC to TLS. And I have also changed many others by the same *#272*IMEi# without any issue. The only thing is that it will wipe all the data.

Find out which carrier exactly yours is locked to... the KIES emergency firmware recovery should able to bring it back to the original factory state with the original CSC according to the serial number. Good luck.

I couldn't find anything on MDOOB ROM. I think going forward I have to agree with u. To stick with samsung stock is going to be a pain in the butt everything there is a new release...

I just found out that even if I want to go to Google image it has to be a custom ROM and not the original play store image from Google...

If u can guide me to the info page/post of mdoob that would be great. Did mdoob manage to strip know out?

I'm a little confused with the direction of this thread but...

I am on Telus with SGH-i337M.

Bell uses Telus Towers. Rogers is a completely different system.

I rooted and tried the Gummy Rom and hated it. Went to switch back to stock and downloaded what I thought was a 'TLS' 4.2 image. I turned out to be a Bell image as it didn't have the Telus bloatware attached, it had Bell Bloatware! It worked fine but just had the Bell flavour. I have since located a 4.3 Telus image from Samware and it turned out to be a true Telus image. I still had to enter the APN info to get the network.

Planning on installing Pure-Google-4.4.v2 and haven't read anything that would indicate any problems, other than the build.prop info saying GT-9505 instead of SGH-I337M! (GT9505 are I (clap) denticle) (sorry... had to do the 'My Cousin Vinny' reference there...) ;)

The drivers have nothing to do with the rom. Either windows recognizes the phone or not. If windows doesn't recognize the phone then Kies can't either. I dislike Kies! I used ODIN, simple and straight forward.

No they did not. They are all identical.

If you had your chosen csc active for example you had been on your own providers firmware or had installed your own csc in custom rom, before flashing 4.3 it would stay that way after Odin. Problem is before flash your phone had some other csc or no csc, in which case bell is the default one that gets loaded everytime. You need to use csc changer to switch to your chosen provider. You go the same advice page ago. Yet you repeat question?

Resets internal card as well.

Otherwise. Don't want to reset and change csc? Rooted? Custom recovery? Go to goldeneye thread, under first post Canadian, active part of csc 's is linked my post . Flash in custom recovery. Note you'll still have bell apps, but apn' s and other little settings from your provider will be the way they should. Also note this is just masking it, next time you full flash, again you'll get bell.
