I've update the OP (cleaned it up a bit), and added flashable zips for MDL and MF3.

[MENTION=5001115]Dean1650[/MENTION] - I looked into your Status.smali. Indeed it's very different than the I337 version, however it was similar enough to make the same changes. It just took a lot more careful editing, but the differences between MDL and MF3 were similar between MF3 and MGA. Also I had to go learn what the differences between "registers" and "locals" were. :)

Attached is the modified Status.smali for MGA.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
Will the MF3 flashable you posted work to revert back to official and stock boot screen if I already have the custom and padlock screen showing?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Aou:
It's the same as "File#9". I replied over in the unadulterated thread. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Dean1650:
That's sort of where I gave up. I saw the register/local difference and not being very good at smali, quit. It is extremely good of you do to this. I will update you when I try this this evening.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Dean1650:
I believe you can add MGA to your list. I compiled settings with the smali and tried to break Official. All the changes I made to stock kernel and installing busy box worked great. Great job and thanks so much. This is a 5 star thread.

Awesome, glad to hear of the success! I've added this Status.smali to post#2.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mikew29:
The MDL zip worked like a charm. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] slapdaddy:
I'm on stock rooted MDL and I had no custom screen before flashing. I flashed the MDL zip and upon reboot, the custom unlocked padlock status screen showed up. I rebooted again - still there. Then I powered down instead of rebooting and turned the phone back on... Official S4 screen. :D So I rebooted a couple times to verify and it's still there... Whew.

So I have a question. Is this normal? Should I be worried that the flashable zip did not work?

Sent from my Galaxy S4.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Aou:
That's pretty strange o_O. I've heard many people on MDL rooted say that their custom/official status was very finicky, depending on whether or not SysScope found their root/busybox/whatever.

So, I don't know what caused the temporary "custom" screen, or why the reboot healed it... but it shouldn't be a problem going forward. The only things that can bring it back now are:

Returning to stock (and then making a /system modification like rooting it).

Reversing the changes (restoring files).

Restoring a Nandroid.

Flashing a new stock-based ROM that has SysScope included (or otherwise unmodified SecSettings.apk).

Flashing a Kernel or recovery that isn't lokified, and then trying to boot it. This gives that nasty warning screen about custom firmware, and then marks the boot screen as "custom".

If any of the above happen, you'll have to find some creative way of getting the Official status back, because the "normal" way this returns is for SysScope to scan the system, find that it's stock, and then mark the boot screen as official. I usually just take a nandroid, Odin-to-stock, boot it once/fully (to flag it as Official), reboot, and restore nandroid that has the mod in-place already.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] slapdaddy:
Okay that's good to know. But I pretty much thought it was due to that busybox reason as well. But no custom screen today so I think I'm all set! Every dev should cook this into their ROMs as I'm sure they will. Great work!

Hi Aou,

I have a note 2 GT-N7102 with SVA Custom Rom 3.1 http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=43736249&postcount=590

with a clockwork touch recovery;

I want the allshare cast dongle to work , since the MHL does not work on this phone ( shame on Samsung for this).

Do you think you could try to make a flashable zip for this custom rom ( for this phone unless you use the chinese original rom, the SVA rom is the best custom rom that is available ).

thanks for all you efforts.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Galaen:
I'm sure this is a dumb question, but I have to ask. I am using mdl firmware, and I downloaded the mdl zip. So, after making a backup, I can flash that zip on whatever rom I am on, and the padlock screen is removed, or do I need to be on a stock rooted rom?

Edit: I mainly use aosp roms. I'm starting to think this will not do me any good because I feel the padlock will return as soon as I flash one of those roms.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dogmatism:
Usually the firmware is - if official - odin flashable TAR - not zip.

If you use AOSP, its simple, just like others, follow this procedure:

Procedure:

Flash Stock Rom (eg. MDL) via Odin

Enable USB debugging and then Root by Motochopper

Flash Custom recovery (easy by goomanager for TWRP)

From recovery Flash the mdl-remove-SysScope.zip (see OP)

Reboot and check your status (OFFICIAL). You are done.

Now flash whatever AOSP :)

IMPORTANT:

The procedure will remove all your data [titaniumBackup it]. You may also (accidentally) remove wipe your internal sd, so make sure you transfer your stuff to some external source ESPECIALLY your TB backup folder, it is always wise to keep it in external sd

STOCK MDL:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mach1man:
So all of my backups say 1970 and they don't have dates attached so I'm having a hard time figuring out which is what backup. Im using clockworkmod recovery. Is there any way to tell which one was the last backup?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AxAtAx:
wow, really? Because you didn't name the backups, they default with a date, I am NOT going into why its 1970 either, there are 4 zillion threads explaining this in the g3 area.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dennisg34:
i understand what you're trying to say, however, not everyone who owns an s4 owned an s3 and would search in forums about that phone for their s4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mach1man:
OK I'll look there but I'm coming from a non-rooted Note 2 and then an iPhone before that. I understand I didn't name them but where can I name them, in the files section once the ROMs loaded up or can I do it in clockworkmod?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mach1man:
So I looked in the S3 section and one guy said that he renamed his backups and then when he tried to restore it, the backup failed and caused him to lose root. Can anyone help explain things to me. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wingdo:
I noticed this issue day one after I rooted, and could not figure out why 1970 was the year (I do not always rename backups). I assume it's a default date burned into the ROM and that it just starts at the beginning of 1970 and slowly ticks up from there. I never cared enough to look for an answer, but as a first time Sammy owner, I also would never have thought to look in the S3 forums for an answer to what is to me an S4 issue. So please cut the OP some slack. Should S4 users search every single Samsung section here for every Galaxy series phone before asking in the Q&A section? Should we look in every Samsung section period including i series?

Is their anyway to have unread emails on the dash clock lock screen app? I know it works with gmail and k9, but what about the default email app for the nexus 10? I have 3 account setup for it and it would be nice to see all 3 on the lock screen with dash clock. Is their an extension from the Google play store that will do this, or an option in dash clock itself that I am missing.....

Thanks

I'm bumping this thread because I'm looking for the same thing.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sflesch:
OK, so I've done some searching and can't find the comparisons I've been looking for, so I'm hoping you all can help me.

My Nook Color I think is about at end of life as far as expecting any better OS. It's no longer under BN warranty, but I have a SquareTrade that I'm not afraid to use, so, I have to ask...

I'm look for the best performance with a child friendly interface. I'll probably make Kids Mode by Zoodles the default launcher unless someone can convince me otherwise. I like how I can just check all the apps I want the kids to play.

For performance, should (and/or can) I:

1) Stick with Stock and root it? Can I install KidsMode as the default launcher? I haven't booted into Stock on the NC in ages.

2) Install CM (and which, 7.2, 10, 10.1) on my 32GB SD

or

3) Install CM (and which, 7.2, 10, 10.1) on EMMC?

I recently did a fresh wipe on the SD card and installed 10.1 and it seemed slow, so I'm wondering what your experiences are and if you have a preferred build, etc.:o
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BitingChaos:
I'd stick with EMMC, since it will "always" work, and does not depend on an SD card. I've had stock wiped since I got my Nook Color (May 2011?). I even redid the partitioning so I'd have the huge /data partition on it.

I wouldn't really consider CM10, as that was a dead-end. Never really polished, and support & development stopped.

For what seems like the quickest performance, go with CM7.2. Highly developed and tweaked kernel, Nook Color Tools to further tweak and boost sound, and maximum overclocking and undervolting. I swear I went 30 days on a single charge. The limiting factor is of course Android 2.3 compatibility, and some things not looking or acting right because you're running a Phone OS on a tablet.

For the most compatible, CM10.1. Certainly not as tweaked or mature as 7.2 and quieter sound (as the sound boost in was a "bug" in Android that was eventually fixed) - but you get a polished Android 4.2 OS. Most things "work". Apps works. It can be slow as heck, but everything runs and looks correct.

CM7.2 may give you the best performance and battery life. I'd test both. Go back and forth between CM7.2 and CM10.1. Test games. Compare launchers, etc. The quickest Launcher (by far) that I've used is LaunderPro. I'm talking nearly 60fps smooth animations with it on the Nook Color. The developer seemed to have abandoned it. There's an annoying bug in the app drawer where all app icons overlap each other if you rotate the device. ADWLauncher got an interesting update some time back. It can add a nearly-ICS/JB launcher "look" to CM7.2.
[General Questions and Answers] Exynoshd:
With so many new ways to play, it is very possible that we see more great core android games. Shooters, adventure games, etc. What do you guys think of all of these? Do you think it could ever surpass console gaming in terms of popularity? Especially with the price of games being so low and quality increasing at such a good pace.

Also, how many of you have tried/are interested in dedicated android gaming devices like the Ouya, Nvidia Shield(Next Week! :D ), Gamestick, Etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] TwoStroker37:
I know this phone just came out today, but I picked one up with the hopes to use it on T-Mobile (within the 15 day return policy) since I'm month to month on ATT. ATT wasn't equipped to unlock it today and is calling me back next week with the code. I tried various unlock methods but none of the ussd codes work. Anyways, my question goes:

Is anyone working on, or going to work on rooting and AWS unlocking the S4 Active?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
As I asked in the other thread...what is the firmware?

It needs to be determined if the Active is being released with patches that would make current exploits unusable. If they patched "motochopper" and they patched "Loki", you might be screwed for a while. The AWS unlock method already posted might work if it doesn't require root but it all depends if the menu options are the same. It could be a huge risk trying it, but it might be the only way to know. Maybe Chainfire's root method could work, but like I said, unless you are willing to try these things (and risk bricking) it's going to take time to find things out about it.

Edit....Ok I saw you posted the firmware I the other thread.... 2 threads about this are confusing.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] SDRebel:
...but how did you unlock it?

for me it would be ok, as Tmobile DFW has 1900 MHz. not sure if LTE would work though, that would be sweet. Supposedly it's somewhat up and running in DFW
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DazzlinJack:
TwoStroker probbly doesn't know otherwise he would have replied by now. Luckily, I can help you. You should call AT&T International Customer Service and have them give you the unlock code.

Once it's unlocked, go into Developer mode and switch your frequencies.

take care!
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingDaedrix:
I am wondering if their is any possible way to change the model number of my E617-G to an E610 or E615.

The reasoning for this is so that I can install custom ROM's for the phone, which isn't possible on the E617-G but is on the E610/15. The phone is already rooted, I would just like to gain the ability of installing custom ROM's because I am not a huge fan of Android and I'm looking to try maybe Windows Phone 7 or something.

Thanks in advance for any help!
[HTC Sensation] TheCollegeDropout:
Hi,

I've tried to flash a new rom to my HTC Sensation and have got it spectacularly wrong. I used Hasoon2000's All-In-One tool to unlock my bootloader and root. I then did a wipe clean and installed Inspiration.

The phone had a Vodafone boot screen if that helps - I believe it is the z710e. The install of the rom seemed to go okay but I've rebooted and it's not getting stuch on the HTC quietly brilliant screen.

Any help would be amazing!

Thanks.

EDIT: My HBOOT is 1.27, I'm not sure if I need higher? My firmware I believe is 3.32- when I try to put higher on by putting PG59IMG.zip on my root, my phone parses it but doesn't do anything afterwards. Could this be my problem?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
you are still on S-ON so you can't upgrade firmware in that way

do you have 4ext recovery installed?

if not then use 4ext to install the rom

and before installing the rom

format all partitions except sdcard from 4ext

enable smartflash from it

flash the rom

done
[HTC Sensation] TheCollegeDropout:
Couldn't get 4ext to work but found one that does eventually. Downloaded Android Revolution as I know this works with my phone and now can boot! Having trouble getting a signal now though. Any more suggestions?
