[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] OverkillSD:
Root just allows you to hack the software on your phone, and the "unlock" refers to the bootloader. It does not unlock the phone for other carriers; this is done (from what I understand) by dialing a specific set of codes, generally provided to you by the original carrier of the phone if you have an account in good standing with them and you tell them you plan on travelling out of the country and need to use GSM. I have never needed to do this and as such only have a minor theoretical knowledge of the subject; I would appreciate it if somebody with more knowledge on this would confirm or deny my suspicion that you are better off trading the phone for an AT&T/T-Mobile one that actually was meant for GSM, or otherwise obtaining one.

This is the original bootloader; not the stock firmware. You need to flash this after you successfully root, start the phone, start SuperSU, and update the SU binary.

The full stock firmware is rather large and available here:

might not know as much as i thought

thanks for telling me this first of all, so let me see if i get this right and im hoping you or someone will tell me if im correct or not. The all in one root method does that take care of the whole SuperSu, and update part or do i still need to do that after the root tool does its business? With unrooting do i just need to flash the stock firmware in odin use triangle away and i should be good correct, im not quite understanding the whole thats the original bootloader....the file that downloads is a .tar i thought that was firmware/rom....what do i need the original bootloarder for exactly? I honestly am to the point id be willing to pay someone who has a credible rep to video chat and walk me through it all
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bhp090808:
If you need assistance. Pm me. If I sm available ill help you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] OverkillSD:
The original bootloader is locked and doesn't allow for us to use the exploit to install SuperSU and root the phone.

We are installing the unlocked bootloader via Odin...

Then running motochopper to exploit a vulnerability to gain root...

Then MANUALLY (this can't happen automagically) opening SuperSU and updating the SU binary...

Then rebooting the phone to make sure you still have root (personal preference)...

Then re-loading the original bootloader (we don't need the modified one anymore!) via Odin...

Then we are done!

The steps in the how to are very precise and accurate. If you would like to PM me, I am available for another hour or so.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bhp090808:
Well said. Only correction is the bootloader still remains locked. The recoveries included are loki patched. This bypasses the bootloader. All roms and kernels are loki patched so flashing them is safe. This is as close as we're gonna get to an unlocked bootloader for now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] OverkillSD:
Ah. I was under the impression the bootloader was unlocked. Thanks for the info.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dabs delicious:
I'm getting an error in Odin: "Cannot open serial port." I have debugger mode enabled and whatnot, any help?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] chrisxstyle1182:
I am also coming up with this error. My computer says that device is not responding. I am a first time "rooter" but I read the instructions carefully and now im stuck.....any suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bhp090808:
Could be a couple of things first make sure your using the cable that came with your phone. Try switching usb ports. Alsi try rebooting your pc
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ReklezzTrini:
I am getting the error "more than one device or emulator" after I enter option "1" for rooting. Any ideas?

Ok well I solved my problem. When ever I enabled "USB Debugging" my phone would go to installer mode, then go back into media mode after a min or so. So as soon as I checked USB Debugging, I quickly entered the root process. I did not run into any more problems.

I am currently making a backup right now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vyperrex:
Tried posting a message to the All in one Root tool thread as well, but as newb, I can't. I rooted my phone successfully using the tool. Where I am having difficulty is moving to step 2, prep for recovery. I get the *daemon started successfully* but nothing happens after that. I've rebooted my computer and phone and even plugged into a different usb port. My screen has been displaying the *DSS* message for approximately an hour while I've been waiting for it to complete. I have verified that I do have root. Updated SuperSU binaries, have installed Titanium Backup to begin reinstalling apps I backed up on my previous phone. All successfully.

Is this perhaps and issue where I need to try doing this on a different PC? Any tips appreciated!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DarkMenace:
The SCH-I545_MDK_562219_Stock_Restore.tar.md5.gz or SCH-I545_MDK_562219_Stock_Restore.exe is the stock software. The one you mentioned is modified to keep your apps. You can grab either one of the stock roms from my signature.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] SpaceCaker:
Phoenix Wallpaper Chooser is Open Source and we do accept You're Wallpapers :D !!!!

it isnt that hard if you do know a bit of git or just post it here and i will submit the wallpapers to git

do make sure the wallpapers are of min size 1080x960 so we can resize them with ease

Source code of Wallpaper Chooser is here = https://github.com/spacecaker/android_packages_apps_PHOENIXWallpapers

How to contribute ?

Use Github Client for windows to clone https://github.com/spacecaker/android_packages_apps_PHOENIXWallpapers source or

use linux terminal

git clone https://github.com/spacecaker/android_packages_apps_PHOENIXWallpapers Awallpapers

i will explain now how to add you're own wallpapers and pull to my git

inside drawable-nodpi add ur wallpaper like USERNAME_wallpaper_1.jpg * make sure size is 960x800 for nodpi

also add same USERNAME_wallpaper_1_small.jpg and make sure this size is 212x189 *add this png aswell with same size to drawable-xhdpi

for drawable-xhdpi add ur wallpaper like USERNAME_wallpaper_1.jpg * make sure size is 1260x960 for xh/hdpi

then add ur wallpaper name into

res/values/wallpapers.xml

wich currently looks like this

<resources>
<string-array name="wallpapers" translatable="false">
<item>Phoenix_wallpaper_1</item>
</string-array>

<string-array name="info" translatable="false">
<item>SpaceCaker :: Phoenix</item>
</string-array>
</resources>

Inside

<string-array name="wallpapers" translatable="false">

add ur wallpaper *taken from above parts * <item>USERNAME_wallpaper_1</item>

so it will look like

<resources>
<string-array name="wallpapers" translatable="false">
<item>space_nime_1</item>
[COLOR="Red"] <item>USERNAME_wallpaper_1</item>[/COLOR]
</string-array>

<string-array name="info" translatable="false">
<item>SpaceCaker :: Phoenix</item>
</string-array>
</resources>

Now under

<string-array name="info" translatable="false">

add ur XDA/Name :: Info

like

<item>USERNAME :: Blue dragon</item>

then it will look like

<resources>
<string-array name="wallpapers" translatable="false">
<item>Phoenix_wallpaper_1</item>
<item>USERNAME_wallpaper_1</item>
</string-array>

<string-array name="info" translatable="false">
<item>SpaceCaker :: Anime</item>
[COLOR="red"]<item>USERNAME :: Blue dragon</item>[/COLOR]
</string-array>
</resources>

then u can

git add .
git add -u
git commit -m 'upload new wallpapers'
git push

or with the github client on windows its self explanatory

then after synched

go to github.com/USERNAME/android_packages_apps_PHOENIXWallpapers or how u have forked/cloned it

Bug:

1. Xperia boot animation is blocky and low quality.

2. No camera rotation in video mode.

3. Photo editing don't work.

Suggestions:

1. "Fixed-Int2ext4+-Android-4.2.1" in installation.

2. CM9-GPS_Fix_V4-Europe just 176kb in installation.

3. Different file manager.

4. Remove voice dialer.

5. Why 2 wallpaper managers?

Needs update:

1. Google play music

2. Terminal

3. Apex Laucher

All in all this is just my opinion.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Ace King 34:
lockscreen works dude.

Just reboot the phone a few times and the Widgets load up.

it is based on CM10.1 by Bieltv.3
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Ace King 34:
Yea

uploading after sometime.

:)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Ace King 34:
well about the apps that need update you can update them from play store. ;)

We were going to include int2ext4 and other scripts in installer but the scripts were messing up the installer so we removed it.

I am not sure if CM9 GPS fix will work with CM10.1 and if you wanna try it then you can flash that GPS fix. anyways GPS works on this ROM.

well CM Filemanager is provided for the initial requirements.You can install other 3rd party file manager which you like.

Well there is only one file manager named "Phoenix Wallpapers",The other one is because of the CM10.1 gallery.

I don't feel the need to remove Voice Dialer.

Xperia Bootanimation is made by BadBoy101,you can report bugs in his thread.

About the Camera,the bugs are same as in CM10.1 by Bieltv.3

if Photo editing doesn't work,then you can download 3rd party app like Littlephoto or PicsArt and edit your photos.

cheers.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Ace King 34:
Well the battery life depends on your usage.

But if you wanna know about the battery life then it is same as the battery life in CM10.1 ROM by Bieltv.3.

battery life depends on screen ON time,Wifi usage,3G usage,brightness and other parameters.

so make sure to keep the brightness minimum and other things like switching off wifi when not in use and the battery will last for a day
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Venomous Viper 119:
On opera mobile, I click download & when I save the file, it says download failed right away. And one more thing, I don't think the cm10.1 bugs are still fixed right? And have you tried maclaw's cm10.1 ? You can even enable soft keys on it ! Only bug is the LED flashlight toggle.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Ace King 34:
Added another download link.

well i will use maclaw's CM10.1 as base in future updates if he gives me permission to use it.

are you trying to fix camera rotation and photo editing?But the same .... great rom ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Ace King 34:
About Camera Rotation,you can try other Camera app from the playstore and check if the Rotation works with that app.

About Photo Editing,There are many other awesome apps on the playstore that give you more better options of photo editing and more like Little Photo,Pics Art,etc.

I am glad that you liked the ROM :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Ace King 34:
Glad to know that you liked the ROM. :)

About the Panorama bug,I think its the problem with CM10.1 camera app,you can try other apps from the playstore and I guess panorama will work.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Ace King 34:
Can someone please give a written feedback about the ROM?

what are the Pros and Cons?

Did you like the Aroma Installer Configuration and Customization?

Did u like the Wallpaper Chooser?

Nice Rom,

I install Stock Samsung keyboard and use 3x4 keypad type, but when i try to add new words to T9dic the samsung keypad stop working.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Ace King 34:
I am glad that you liked the ROM :)

It might be because the keyboard has some problem with compatibility with the 4.2.2 Version.

You can try out other keyboards from play store.

There are always better keyboards in the playstore ;)

cheers.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] MarcoGaspar:
What keyboards have 3x4 type?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Ace King 34:
umm...I use the LatinIME.apk from CM10.1

so I don't know about which keyboards have 3x4 type

but I guess Swiftkey keyboard and Go keyboard has the type

Search "Keyboards" in Google Play Store.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Ace King 34:
You can try Amarullz script as well as Int2ext script and check which one works best with the ROM.

Please make a Nandroid Backup from Recovery before trying out the scripts so that you can restore the backup incase things don't go as planned
