4.3?

I just got one of these phones in SK. I'm coming from a Nexus 4 which was pretty easy to root and flash new ROMS but DOESN'T support SK LTE (sad). After reading many pages in here it seems (you) were able to root 4.2 via 3 different methods, to include rooted kernels but are running into trouble rooting 4.3 or updating to 4.3 with a rooted 4.2.

I am gathering all the files I need to root mine, but I want to use TWRP. I'm already annoyed that I don't have swipe, and I'm tired of the bloat but I don't want to be stuck with 4.2

Has anyone been able to root this with 4.3? I was thinking of using the i9500 TWRP recommended procedure to see if that would work.

http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/191

"Install the app and open it. Tap menu then hit Install OpenRecoveryScript. Tap Yes. Verify that the filename displays your device's code name and hit Yes. The file will download and your device will install the recovery automatically."

Can also be done through ODIN with a tar file.

Thoughts?
[Galaxy S 4 General] lunerceli:
You can root 4.3 by not flashing the new boot loader. You have tk stay onones the 4.2.2 boot loader inones order toroad rootroutes the newbread firmware. As far as recovery goes, you can use any one of them from the i9500. I personally prefer philz touch cwm 6.0.4.4. It really is the best one out there in my opinion.

My e300s stuck at 4.2.2 MH3 firmware. cannote upgrade 4.3 cannot downgrad 4.2.2 older version. everytime it says "knox images only". Any suggestion?
[Galaxy S 4 General] javvy_p:
Just wanted to add a few notes from my experience,

I rooted my stock E300S using the method on page 17 which worked when using the most up to date versions of all required programs.

I installed Nottach and Xposed to increase the speaker volume but I could not get this to work and it did not work correctly on my phone as I also changed the battery icon which is advised on page 1 that you should not do! Oops!

I removed Nottach and Xposed and then my phone began experiencing multiple reboots and very fast battery drain.

I updated firmware via Kies last night and I am now on 4.3 which has removed root and also fixed the battery drain (I believe) although I have not used the phone as much today.

I still want to increase speaker volume as it is rubbish at the moment. Please can someone tell me how to root and also how to increase volume?

These are my vitals:
[Galaxy S 4 General] HTCscout:
Is anyone willing to update this thread with another "how-to" with detailed instructions for rooting from 4.3?
[Galaxy S 4 General] ekzil:
I wonder if root for 4.3 version it's even released ... doubt it :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] lunerceli:
Like I have said and a few others have said you can root 4.3 but you will have to use the 4.2.2 bootloader to accomplish this task. Which means not updating through kies or ota. If you have already done this then I am sorry but you will have tk wait till someone works on getting around the new knox bootloader to obtain root.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Trev186:
Can someone post a pre rooted rom for 4.3 for each variant like the main post ? I get we have to use the 4.2.2 bootloader...just would be nice having the file to download and flash with odin.

Phone bricked when downgrading to 4.2.2 via odin

My phone got bricked when I downloaded from sammobile the old 4.2.2 firmware and flashed it via odin. The bootloader, recovery and system files were uploaded but when it was uploading the sbin files it failed. My phone no longer boots and I have to unbrick it. The Philippine Samsung Smart Care (MegaMall branch) doesn't honor global warranties. They even want to charge me P2500 to just flash the latest version of the firmware without even guaranteeing me that it will work. Damn. I'll just download the latest firmware and flash it myself. After I unbrick this phone I'll probably trade it in for a Nexus 5.
[Galaxy S 4 General] javvy_p:
Get yourself Titanium Backup from the app store. If you have root it will allow you to delete apps. Make a full backup first before you begin. Then delete whatever apps you dont want or freeze as mentioned above. I deleted pretty much every app on my E300S.

---------- Post added at 11:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 AM ----------

I simply updated via Kies. The same thing happened to me the first time I connected to Kies, it said I had the most up to date firmware. I then connected a day later and it found new firmware and updated me to 4.3 which also removed root. So if you want root then perhaps do not update.

Perhaps reboot your phone before connecting it so no other apps are open?
[Galaxy S 4 General] efrenyaresjr:

What ROMS will work with the rooted E300K 4.2.2? All S4 ROM?
[Galaxy S 4 General] lunerceli:
Any i9500 rom. The only thing is that you will have to flash our 4.2.2 kernel in order to get signal or audio. I have done this and flashed many of their roms.
[Galaxy S 4 General] BlackJack'89:

[Galaxy S 4 General] lunerceli:
Well, the new modem could have actually changed the way that the signal gets aggregated and that is why you have lost 4g access on globe. If you can wait a few hours, then I can upload the file to flash via CWM if you are able to. You just have to tell me which phone model that you have.

Correction on that one bro. You can flash any I9500 rom you want on our phones. The only thing is that you want have cell signal or audio. But that is an easy fix by flashing our kernel on top of it. Trust me, I do it all the time to test new roms.

[Galaxy S 4 General] lunerceli:
Please do not do that. It will most definitely brick your phone. We are only compatible with the 19500. But we cannot use their modems becase of baseband differences.

---------- Post added at 09:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 AM ----------

Yes you can. You just have tonmake sure that it is a 4.2.2 rom at this moment. I havent tested the 4.3 roms except for cm 10.2 which doesn't boot because j don't have the right blobs for it to do so. Once you flash the rom just flash your e300l kernel on too of it and there you go. J was actually using wanam lite for a little bit to test out. Worked just fine with my e300k kernel.

You should use our latest rooted kernel. That will do just fine. Just make sure that it is a 4.2.2 rom as I stated above.
[Galaxy S 4 General] mohaimed:
So I will first flash the firmware via recovery. Then flash the kernel via odin. Ami right? What is the full procedure via odin? Can u please detail your explanation? And where can I get latest kernel for E300L?
[Galaxy S 4 General] lunerceli:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2422441 you can go there and find your kernel that is flashable via recovery. Just download and place on your sd card and flash it after you flash the rom of your choice.

E330S How to ROOT ?

Hello,

I have a E330S since yesterday, I flashed E330SKSUBMJ7 (android 4.3) and I'd like to root the device to remove all those korean apps that I don't care of.

I tried to flash with Odin 3.7 a recovery named : I9500-cwm-recovery-6.0.3.2-2.tar, and tried also Cofface_I9500_cwm_recovery_en_new.tar and openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-i9500.tar.

For each of thoses files I flashed with odin 3.7 and had a success.

But when I tried to boot in recovery mode (volume up + menu + power) I have very briefly the blue line "boot in recovery' (or something like that) and then the downloading mode (odin mode) with this message :

Could not do normal boot

Odin Mode

Product name : SHV-E330S

Current Binary : Custom

System status : custom

KNOX Kernel Lock : 0x0

Knox Warranty Void : 0x0

Qualcom secureboot : enable

RP SWREV : S1, T1, R1, A2, P0

Write Protection : enable

UDC Start

So I can't boot in recovery and can't flash CF-Root.

Despite that, the system boots normaly and if I flash again the rom, I can go to the Factory recovery but that's useless.

Anyone know how to root this phone or where I can find a recovery that is working with this model ?

Thanks
