XXUGNH7 needs the new bootloader. I'm going through this procedure and I try to figure out a solution because this rom can work with the old bootloader and I don't wish to change it.

The phone info will show you the info of my current (v29) rom which I restored with the nandroid backup. If this is helpful, please let me know which fields you would like me to post cause I don't want to publish IMEI etc online.

Initial info: bootloader: I9505XXUBMF4, Baseband: I9505XXUFNDG, PDA I9505XXUGNG8, CSC: I9505XAGNG8

OS Changelist 2309103, build Echoe_Illusion_KOT49H.I9505XXUGNG8 etc.

If you need any other field, I'll post it

i have old bootloader and everything works
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
Ok that helps a lot. And i understand about not wanting to update your bootloder.. but yours is very very old.. i mean even before the mga (which is till knox free) which has reported to work on this rom.. im afraid im not sure if its possible for it to work on such an old bootloader but maybe others can share their thoughts on this..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
My brother which one is yours? Om afraid his is really old..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sanoc69:
MGA
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Drg7:
So I understand that I would have to change my bootloader for this to work, even if this is the latest version of the old bootloader. This is a procedure I've never done and I'm quite reluctant. From what I know the last version of my carrier's rom working with the old bootloader is this one. The reason I'm asking is that I want to be able to flash it whenever I have a problem to avoid voiding my warranty. I am however not familiar with how bootloaders work apart from the few stuff I read in forums. If I flash this ROM (BMF4) will it also install another bootloader (hopefully the latest version of the old bootloader) or it is irrelevant? If so, I could try working friedrich's solution (install an official rom with odin and then flash the v31) with this BMF4 rom.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
For me the safest way to flash a bootloader is to flash the whole rom. But i know thats just me.. (i dont have the best relationship with odin)

Dont go too new.. Maybe try the MGA Rom first (which is still old bootlader but much newer than yours and reported by many people to work flawlessly with v31))

I wanna make sure of something my man though.. It's an international variant you have, correct?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jeancca:
Guys,

When I flash a BL I use Odin twice in a row. I mean, Use Odin to flash the first time with the "reboot" option turned off. Once it finishes I disconnect the phone and connect again to the PC, restar Odin, flash again with "reboot" turned on. It works for me.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] :
The trick is to turn the phone off completely and start into download mode manually. In odin untick autoreboot and wait until odin says PASS. This way every flash worked for me. No second flash needed.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Darkwing_X:
+1 I can only confirm, never had to flash twice.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sanoc69:
flash twice wath???
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] rubnduardo:
That'd be an useful tip. He's talking about flashing MODEMS (for ex), which sometimes you have to flash more than once for it to stick, as I've always read from Chainfire (and others).

Next time I'm gonna try that and if it works I'd be reporting it.

///

Does anyone knows where's the bootanimation located? I've been trying to change it manually bcs the app I used (from Jrummy) doesn't find it and it's not located in the usual places, or maybe I'm just really lost in this.

Anyone have MGA bootloader for Odin? :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mussels84:
some people with the PIN issue need to update their bootloader as well as modems to resolve it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Eudemony:
Good answer. I may of been wrong with the mod issue but ive been able to recreate the sim pin issue when using the latest version of apktool when modifying the systemui and that is why I gave that response.

Definetely without the latest nh7 (or now nh8 ) modem, the sim wont be recognised.

BTW my bootloader is MG4

I'm happy to try and help as best as I can guys. With no prejudice. I try and treat people the same way I would want to be treated when asking for help.

Friedrich420 is a master rom maker from kernels to roms to different devices and have found him approachable and honest.

I just want you all to know. When I post here it's not to steal people or ideas for my rom. Its a genuine passion to help others with my knowledge. Not everyone like me has an IT background in software engineering or for that matter, any IT study. Just here to help...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Drg7:
1. That's exactly my question. Since, as I said, I don't know much about bootloaders, I want to know if I flash this rom (I9505XXUBMF4) if the bootloader will be also flashed and, if so, how will I know which bootloader version it is. I'm talking about this specific rom because I know that it is the latest greek rom with the old bootloader.

2. Yes, it is the international variant
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sanoc69:
Try to find a 4.2.2 MGA unbranded rom, flash from odin, root and inatall custom recovery like philz, if everything ok, flash from odin NH7 modem, after echoe rom
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Eudemony:
thats mf4 bootloader (the same as you already have)

this is what i have http://samsung-updates.com/details/17352/Galaxy_S_4_Snapdragon/GT-I9505/VAU/I9505XXUBMG4.html
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
if you flash a stock rom via odin successfully then your bootloader is updated to that rom version.

To see what bootloader you have after you flash stock, use the app i told you (phone info)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MatteoB92:
First of all, you must root your device.

Then, install a custom recovery (personally I have Philzs Touch).

At last, make a full wipe before installing the rom.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sanoc69:
No need root, install philz with odin, go to recovery full wipe and install echoerom, the rom already rooted

No my man its 4.4.2

But you can flash ANY custom rom you want.. It doesnt matter that you are on new bootloader.. Its with flashing stock rom via odin that you cant because you are on new bootloader. But custom roms that you flash via CWM (Philz) or TWRP recovery you are absolutely fine :)

Luckily I could boot into download mode so I downloaded the latest firmware for my country. And now I have Knox... Yes, I could have downloaded mga firmware but I didn't care at that moment..

After that I was able to Odin flash custom recovery and apply my one-month old backup of the system. I have a running phone now with knoxed bootloader and bad service.. :s but no, I'm NOT GOING TO UPDATE my modem now to get better service as I'm leaving back to army in 10 minutes..

This might be a long shot but is there any mods for this rom that will increase the call volume speaker I did a repair on my screen and now the call volume is low (due to bad glue job I think lol)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mussels84:
done a bunch of screen repairs (glass only, and new LCD)

short of something covering up the speaker(s), like literally putting glue over the top of the holes next to your ear they wont cause that.

sure they're not covered with something, or the volumes just turned down?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] keithokane:
I'm not sure from what I remember I can't think of what I could of covered it with apart from a bit of glue going over it, volumes all turned up max

if it was software related I would be laughing but I doubt it is went funny after the screen repair :(
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Mussels84:
if its front speaker you're talking about, you can easily remove and replace that without spending much money. once you remove the single screw holding the mainboard in you can remove the front facing speaker easily and either clean out the plastic grille with a fine pin or something, or replace the speaker itself.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] keithokane:
Yeah its the front speaker , thanks for the info going to look into that now thanks !

Installation?

Hi,

Great work. OTA could be good idea in that great ROM.

I have one question. What about the installation?

Your installation procedure from post #1: (In Philz recovery use the Following Options: Wipe Data/ Factory Reset/ Clean to Install a New Rom).

"Clean to Install" in Philz does it all I think: all wipes or am I wrong?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
You are absolutely correct!

In Philz just using that option does it all...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] cybertex2013:
(In Philz recovery use the Following Options: Wipe Data/ Factory Reset/ OR Clean to Install a New Rom).

:)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:
i have it like that on purpose.. trust me.. are you up for reading 20000 posts?

you'll find the reason..
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] cybertex2013:
This is only a small modification of the installation procedure in post #1 and more correct would be: (In Philz recovery use the Following Options: Clean to Install a New Rom). That's all.

I like your work really but the matter is the description in post #1 for new users.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] a103:
Yes.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] friedrich420:

I have them on PURPOSE as i said so that people do ALL OF THEM. I ask them to do more because some of them dont even do half of what is required..

You missed the whole point of my previous post, but i cant waste any more energy on this.
