[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shinydude100:
Nah, T-mobile DID send me the update, the very day i purchased my phone, like May 7th or 8th, I had the incremental update that i noticed changed my transparent notification bar to like charcoal black. I had noted the dates as April 26 before the update, and May 6-7 on the newer update.

It's just I decided to try CF Auto-Root, once i realized i just wanted things back to the way i had it, yes, I BOUGHT triangle away, ran the reset flash counter, saw my status on rom read custom, so i flashed the official stock tar by odin and now it says i'm on official.

Issue now is, although my counter is at 0, and the status says official, won't ota to may 7th. I will try Samsung Kies though.

Edit: Even Samsung Kies Reports i'm up to date, which, i suppose I am for the most part, but still not up to date with the incremental May 7th release.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Atmazzz:
Which official tar did you Odin? If it was the MDL build that is the may 7 update so that's why your phone would say up to date.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shinydude100:
woops.

Oh wow, really? Yeah.. it's the MDL update.. gosh, how could i have made that mistake..

(just for reference to everyone else, i mean i odin'd this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2258628

where it says "Download UVUAMDL Official TAR" )

See what I was looking at thinking I was behind was the kernel version..

I got so used to seeing the kernel get updated whenever a new update rolls out on my old phone that I had no idea the may 7th update didn't bring a newer kernel.

Yes. I have MDL on baseband/modem and on the build number. Thing that was throwing me off was paying attention to the kernel version as Friday, April 26, also, i could of sworn the homescreen status bar isn't supposed to be transparent, but mine is, looking back at how it wasn't transparent before last time i was on the may 7th build, now that it's transparent on some things, i just got really confused. might of been the old background i had before, seeing to it that it's clear on homescreen now, and charcoal black when i open settings.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] tonytien:
What I did to get an I9505 Odin build on my M919 was just flash the firmware, wait for it to fail at modem, then odin flash the UVUAMDL modem. Reboot and everything is perfect (except the Samsung Knox modified notification, of course).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ferlogan:
I have UVUAMDL stock firmware

If I root my device then use tryangle I will be able to update to the newest update from the phone because now I can't I have this
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spastic909:
Did you get that image ota? We are in the same state and I still haven't.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ferlogan:
Yes and .. I'm frustrated . I think l just going to wait for the developers or someone to bring the update in a firmware tar file so I can just flashed via odin because I don't want to ending with a. Useless phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] futty:
Coming from the sgs3 I went and tried the app "triangle away" which resets the counter and makes the phone look like it's never been modified however it didn't work for me. And randomly I'll get a message saying triangle away has been granted super user access. Maybe you can try and have Better luck?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ferlogan:
Thanks bro but I think I just going to wait
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] cwalker0906:
You guys need to read. If your on mdl you are on the latest firmware for our phone. The update you are referring to is for the 9505 which is the international version of our phone but not our phone so you will not get that update till tmobile releases it which they havnt. If you know how to flash a rom go flash the rom from the 9505 forum...if you dont ...well read and learn and do it. Im on the updated rom and its a big difference. Again mdl is the latest version for this phone so thats why it keeps telling you that your updated
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jmulla718:
Hey just use triangle away. It will fix your problem. Reset the counter ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] joemagistro:
Bobcat rom is awesome.. Full theme is sick too
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] SpaceRanger69:
Might as well give UnRoot'ing your device a try. Search for UnRoot'ing and give it a whirl.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dr. Fed:
Right. The phone will have "modified" status for two reasons: if you are rooted, and/or if your flash counter is not zero. So, if you want to be totally "unmodified stock", so that OTAs are possible in the future, you need to first reset flash counter with Triangle Away (recently updated by Chainfire, requires root). Second, you need to Odin an official stock rom (this will not trigger the flash counter).

If this is not correct, please let me know.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Legaleye3000:
What is the latest software version so I can check if I have it? Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] zorprime01:
Usually you never wanna flash the radio unless specified.. Be very careful doing that because you can damage your phone...

In my experience it fails during some kind of check with Secure Boot but I do realize it is a good precaution to take.

So bobcat rom works on tmobike m919 phones?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] pezlomd:
I just want to let everyone know that I went ahead and flashed wanamlite 1.1 and I will probably never go back to t-mobile firmware if you guys want to be on the latest firmware from Germany go ahead to the I 95 05 forum and flash it gets rid of all the purple smear effects.. My phone is running so snappy and there is no hiccups I suggest everyone to go try it out its a hundred percent safe even updated my camera firmware with no problem there is nothing special you need to do flash it like any other ROM and download the original file
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Evo4eva:
Uh I have to say you're mistaken. The May 7th update did not change the transparent notification bar. I have two s4s and neither of their notification bars became charcoal black after the May 7th OTA. So I would have to say that you flashed the May 7th OTA when you went back to stock . That's the only thing I can think of. My best suggestion is to flash the original firmware through Odin one more time then try to do the OTA again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mf4466:
I'm also still at this state after triangle away...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hoggles:
Oh yes....99% of the ROMs for different carrier i9505 variants, work flawlessly with our m919's. The only trick is you MUST flash a Tmo specific kernel, directly after ROM install, before you reboot from Recovery. Those kernels are of course... Faux, ktoonez etc.

Both of those Devs as of last night have released fully functional MEA firmware compatible kernels.

I spend most all of my time now in the International i9505 forums...that is where the most activity is.

My m919 is FLYING with Wanam Lite ROM and ktoonez MEA friendly kernel. The new firmware is awesome...everything is better!

You guys who haven't yet checked out the new MEA firmware....you definitely should!! Go check it out....

So after I install the rom just flash a custom kernel right after I flash the rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lazaro17:
tough choice between having latest firmware or staying on a T-Mobile based ROM for the wifi calling. Hopefully T-Mobile pushes firmware update at a reasonable time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] zorprime01:
Ok have done a clean install because you need to wipe everything... Then go to the root folder because I've noticed that even after you've done a reset all all those folder are still present on your memory.. I did it on my s3 and it was able to go back and update ota

X10a-Freedom
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ferlogan:
Does this rom has the ability to move apps to sdcard please confirm thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lazaro17:
Yes. That ROM specifically has the latest firmware which allows move to SD option in application manager.

I just flashed it with ktoonez kernel and I do find things to be snappier.

Also you lose WiFi calling and I think NFC payments.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Atmazzz:
Me too. Triangle Away, completely wiped everything. Odin'ed stock. Rebooted. Everything still says custom. Update says modified. wtf.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheAnarchist1:
Guys, if you are still showing custom after using triangle away, use the experimental option that disables root for a few minutes after a reboot. This option will get you back to official in the system settings, and enable OTAs again. I had the same issue, and know that this works

PS: Make sure that you are on stock kernel and recovery, or you will, if not screw up your phone, at least throw yourself into a bootloop.

PSS: After one reboot with root temporarily disabled, you can turn off the option in triangle away for subsequent reboots and you will be fine.

If this helps. Show me some love and hit the thanks button!

:o
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Atmazzz:
Mine showed official in about device and also in odin system status after using TA. After I odin'ed the stock ROM everything showed custom.

I'm confused about your PS. If I'm on the stock kernel and recovery, how can I still be rooted and use TA which requires root?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheAnarchist1:
You do not need a custom recovery to be rooted dude.

Use the ODIN CFROOT method from the original android forum. You will be able to gain root, while still being on stock recovery, and stock kernel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Atmazzz:
Ahhh .. thanks. I forgot about that. :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shinydude100:
Correct.

You are correct, the only person i fooled at the time was myself, it was the background i had placed on my M919 that made me think it was due to the update, however, it was simply due to my background of choice. Choosing a lighter color that isn't so busy as i have it as now makes it transparent. And yes, I believe i went for the May 7th OTA without realizing it.

I was on May 7th OTA, then rooted. Annoyed the crap out of me that despite using triangle away, it still said "Custom" under status, so I reset the counter with triangle away, and went back to official. I was rooted on my last device, and so far, i haven't a single reason to be rooted, at least not this early in ownership of my S4. The bloat doesn't quite bother me for now, and the phone runs fine.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
Sometimes my phone is very smooth, but every now and then it will suddenly act like a single core phone, this is particularly noticeable if I play a game, it will be smooth usually but when this happens it lags like hell, home stutters and multitasking problems are also present. I've tried everything, deleted system/bin/thermald and overheat control apk, lowered the go max speed load of the CPU, increased readahead size, changed to deadline scheduler... The list goes on! I'm on the latest JB firmware and have a locked BL, any roms that don't have these random lag spikes? Or any other fix? I'll even revert to ICS if its more stable, I did this on my LG before
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
Update: changed GPU gov to performance and it helps
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ebi4321:
how the hell is that possible?!!!!!! :( :( :(

i have the same issue, especially on JB :(

everytime i turn the phone on, i just HOPE to be the PERFORMANCE time!!! :(

sometimes it is SMOOTH, sometimes it lagges, especially in games :(

you know, having Performance governor is not a real solution, it will drain battery the worst way possible, we have to know the reason, since i've done whatever you said as well,EVERYTHING, and yes, when i put in performance mode, it's ok..

any idea about the culprit?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
Just the GPU gov is performance, it doesn't really do much to battery. I use interactive on the CPU. So you're saying your issue wasn't there on ICS??
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ebi4321:
EGG ZAKT LY!!!

when i was on ICS, the games were amazing, no lag whatsoever to call ISSUE, but unfortunately, the lag was INSIDE OF OS, even the phonebook, dialer, messaging, all of the system apps, started slowly, but the gaming performance was awesome, on the other hand, in JB, the whole UI and OS is just smooth and beautiful, but games are awful :(

BTW, how do you modify GPU governor? i thought we could only change CPU
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
Well its settled, I'm moving to ICS to compare. Is there any ICS ROM where I can avoid using flashtool? Anyway about the GPU gov, use trickster mod kernel settings
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ebi4321:
will check that app out, hope it can help me :(

and for the rom, I own TX, not T, not sure where to direct you to download a CWM Recovery flashable Rom, but there HAS to be one, since we have some for TX :)

just head over Android Development section for T :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
Had a look and doesn't look like it, my bootloader is locked by three :mad: got the downloads ready for when I get home ;) BTW to avoid starting a new thread I'm confused as to whether the ICS kernel is included in the ftf files? Never had an xperia, well at least not during my time as a root user, feel like a noob here lol
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Yes it is.

And there are some ICS versions of my Rom for download in my Rom thread

Sent whilst sat on the toilet.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ebi4321:
Gregbradly, The Great, answered you :D

so no need for me to start telling bullsh...ts! :D

let us know what happens, but just as a recommendation, if you could cope with graphic issue in gaming, then don't go back to ICS, it's just a waste of time bro :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
Link? For locked BL too?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
How much better is gaming on ICS? I can deal with some UI lags if gaming is smooth, I don't own any consoles so its a must for me

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
Thanks, I was just gonna check your SIG in the browser, I'll take a look when I'm finished work ;)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ebi4321:
the difference is quite HUGE, at the very moment of entering the game, it's total new world...

so, in this case, in which your preferred gaming console is your phone, go for ICS, the UI lags a bit, and i repeat, A BIT, but gaming is brilliant, just like it doubles the graphic power, i've tested NFS MW on both platform, ICS EASILY outperforms JB :)

hope you'll have good time there, in ICS ;)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
Flashing now ;) Was the same case with the optimus 4x, but since games support this phone better I have high hopes :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
Hmmm, I do see an improvement, not as great as was made out though. On the initial build as its easiest to root, is there a better build or something? As for the UI hickups, that was easily cured using apex ;)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ebi4321:
I'm not so familiar with initial releases, since i've bought TX recently, when JB was out...

you know, the main problem with me is that i'm always a pure-stock fan, i won't change launcher, walkman, gallery and these basic things, but if you do, as you say, it would help the hickup ;)

are locked or unlocked? if you are unlocked, i can provide you with the best STOCK-BASED kernel for ICS, in which the only midification is having CWM onboard, so that you can flash SU easily to have root :)

at your service, anyway :)

One the plus side so far so good with the new sim even got a slightll signal boost but not on 3g but the area im in this weekend is supposed to be c**p for signal 3g wise 2g works flawless. True test will be when i go work which is when it tends to happen the most. If it happens again after a csc change I will just claim on my insurance as the antenna is a broken heap of **** I got a new s3 there and then for 50 excess. But rather not pay again lol hopefully cheaper to fix my self unless its hardware.

Have had my GS4 for 2 days and loving it. Today though I was opening a web page (Weather Channel) in the stock browser and the GS4 rebooted. Hoping it was just some glitch. Will be carefully monitoring the situation over the next few days. Searched other sites and found others who complained about this issue but no real consensus as the cause or solution (other than getting a replacement, sometimes the new one had the same issue). Anyone here on VZW had this also?
