Yeah. It didn't even get to the boot animation when I attempted to flash on ROM Slot 1 with the new AT&T Compatibility Pack, however, it booted just fine in the Stock Slot without the Compatibility Pack. So it's likely one of those two issues, though I can't be certain of which. My guess would probably be the Compatibility Pack, but I'm just happy to have it working.

I'm not seeing a link for a HD RLS 12 compatibility pack, although it's still referenced in the instructions for GSM users... maybe if it's working without it, then it's no longer necessary?

HD RLS 12 is working fine for me no issue, i would suggest you.

boot into stock rom (mk2)

uninstalled SS rocovery

reboot

reinstall SS recovery

reboot into it - create rom slot

wipe

flash rom then AT&T module mk2

reboot enjoy

Since the SS is still beta, I get better results when i delete and recreate rom slot and flash my roms

PS: Install all your apps fresh, so far I've attempted to restore app & data using TB and phone become unstable (apps crashing, apps won't load, FC errors)

Running Omega v18 from the i9505 forum in slot 1, via SS 3.7beta. Running great so far. Had to manually enter my APN. Installed apps fresh (no app or data restore). Going to give it a few more days and then backup my stock slot and install (maybe just restore) Omega in there. Thank you for all the hard work.

Tried Omega's Google Edition - hung on the Omega boot animation. After a 2nd attempt and waiting 30min I gave up on it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] WordsworthESP:
That's probably because GPE ROMs don't use stock kernels.

You must've missed the post before yours, but it's up and running.

Also, I don't restore app data.

The AT&T Compatibility Pack is in the second post of the Hyperdrive thread in the AT&T S4 Development forum. However, I've never had Hyperdrive boot successfully after flashing it.

Well in the past they did work with stock kernels...and we arent positive the stock kernel is incompatible, as there are still some touchwiz roms that dont boot either...as far as we know it could just be a stability issue with safestrap (remember its still in beta)

What would be really nice is if we could get some one with mdl to flash a 4.3 gpe rom with a stock mk2 kernel, that is the real test as to whether or not we have a chance to seeing gpe thru safestrap
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Hashcode:
New BETA v3.71 Safestrap build available. (FOR USE ON TW4.3 BUILDS)

The only change is EXFAT SDcard support (64gb).

HOW DO I UPGRADE SAFESTRAP?

Push the APK up to your sdcard.

Boot back into the "stock" rom-slot.

Go into your old Safestrap app and use the "Uninstall Recovery" button

THEN, open a "file explorer" of some sort (even TW "My Files" will work)

Browse to where you pushed the APK

Click on it and install like normal

Once installed, open the APK

Grant SU access

Use the "Install Recovery" button

All set, now you can reboot and re-activate whatever rom-slot you were using

If I get an att phone and I just want to run aokp do I have to use safestrap Everytime or only once to unlock the bootloader and then I should be OK to boot normally Everytime?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] HORiZUN:
Good luck finding an AT&T S4 that can run AOKP these days.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mg2195:
Safestrap only works with touchwiz based roms at the moment. Cyanogenmod, AOKP, or any AOSP based rom can not be flashed using safestrap.

They appear to be close to getting kexec to work which intheory should allow us to flash any rom even aokp...but theres no saying when we will see kexec if we ever do...

What you mean SS beta? The beta version is for 4.3. SS 3.65 is for 4.2.2

Anyways.with SS you can only run touchwiz roms.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] WordsworthESP:
It's there, maybe you're looking in the wrong device/carrier forum? I checked before I posted it, and I just checked again.

Right, but you're assuming those issues are related. Just because a ROM is Touchwiz based, doesn't mean it's using a stock kernel. More importantly, the word "stock" is relative in this context. You have to consider how many different versions of this device and firmware that exist, which easily explains why they don't all with with Safestrap 4.3.

If there was a GPE 4.3 ROM that ran on our stock kernel, I'd be running it. Unfortunately, everything I've read thus far indicates there isn't.

That's because SHOstock uses a different kernel.

I'm getting boot loops doing the same.What options did you select in the aroma?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mg2195:
Not assuming at all, just stating the possibility. Keep in mind safestrap is still in beta, we are much more locked down than we were on mf3...with that said they're can be many things conflicting with safestrap and its stability/ability to flash roms.

Also there were plenty of touchwiz roms on 4.2.2 that had custom kernels, safestrap still worked fine with those, this is why I feel the problem is with us being more locked down/the fact we are still in beta...I mean roms work on stock slot but not slot 1 for some people, how else does that make sense except the fact we are still in beta

In the end this is just what I think about our situation/my opinion...id say only hashcode knows the real answer lol, and only time will tell...and we can only hope for the best and kexec :D

I didn't do my research before and now I have a problem. I have the AT&T S4 (i337) and I installed TWRP while on MF3 and now everytime I boot I get stuck at "Could not do normal boot". I can bypass that screen but I also want a functional recovery.

So, having TWRP installed what would be the steps to succesfully remove it and be able to install safestrap?

Thanks for your time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] HORiZUN:
I don't think TWRP is installed on your device. That would mean you have an unlocked bootloader, which you don't.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dolph8886:
You can install a custom recovery, It just doesn't work.

you have a couple options that I know of,

you can heimdall the stock recovery.img from the PLATFORM_I337UCUAMF3_812098_REV06_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5

or

odin PLATFORM_I337UCUAMF3_812098_REV06_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 with files from this thread but this will flash system.img.ext4, boot.img, and persdata.img.ext4. (you might be better off flashing entire MF3 odin files though depending on the state of your system prior to flashing the custom recovery)

For startes, I installed TWRP by using dd if=/sdcard/openrecovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21 so wouldn't there be a way to 'uninstall' it or change the partition to the way it was before without having to go back completely to stock?

And what would happen if I install safestrap without removing the leftovers I currently have of TWRP as HORiZUN suggested I don't actually have it installed?

Thank you guys.

PS: Also, after reading your post again dolph8886, before installing the custom recovery I had my phone with MF3, rooted and removed simlock. Root and simlock are the only thing modified from stock rom, if it helps in any way. Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dolph8886:
download and extract recovery.img from PLATFORM_I337UCUAMF3_812098_REV06_user_low_ship_MU LTI_CERT.tar.md5

if you made a backup then you could skip this

dd if=/system/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21

or

use the heimdall method or make an odin flashable tar.md5 with just recovery.img?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] kevin_3_57:
Great, as soon as it's downloaded I'll flash that and install safestrap, thank you very much!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mg2195:
I believe theres a stock recovery image floating around, ill try and find it for you...much smaller download. Anyways if you have heimdall you can go to the heimdal folder and open up cmd prompt there (shift plus right click) place the recovery.img in the same folder as heimdal. Than in cmd prompt type: heimdall flash --RECOVERY recovery.img

It will flash stock recovery and reboot.

Thank you very much for the links! I have everything downloaded now. One question though, I tried to install Carbon Rom which is based on AOSP and a guy told me that safestrap is only for TW based roms?

I tried flashing Carbon prior to knowing this following this steps:

Boot into SS

Create a Rom slot 1

Activate Rom slot 1

Wipe Data/Dalvik/Cache

Install Carbon

Install GApps

And when I tried to boot, the screen would turn black and the phone shuts down.

So, you didn't have to flash the safestrap module at the end to get your wifi to work? I've been holding out for a good 4.3 rom (I've been on SHOstock 4.2 for about the last 3 months) and now you're telling me that SHOstock 4.3 works great?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mdaudioguy:
Yes. Until last week I was also on MF3 with SHO, but I wanted to go to 4.3 ASAP. My recommendation is to be methodical with the update.... backups, flash to MF3 stock, upgrade to MK2, root, flash Safestrap, then flash the SHOstock all-in-one zip. Enjoy!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] ugoff:
I haven't been able to get any 4.3 roms to boot from slot 1 on MK2, so I decided to bite the bullet and flash Hyperdrive to the stock slot. After a nandroid backup of the stock rom, I flashed Hyperdrive and the compatibility pack, but it wouldn't boot. I'd forgotten that I didn't do a Titanium Backup before I went and installed the new rom, so I tried to restore the backup.

The backup restored, but it will not boot either. It just sits at the black screen, then the phone reboots into stock recovery. Is there a trick to the recovery? Why won't this phone boot anything I flash?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dave5777:
I think you need to look for the MK2 Update.zip . Safestrap is for flashing on a safe rom slot. If you wait there will be plenty of ROMs to flash. I was able to get Hyper Drive to work on a rom slot you have to use the one from the verizon forum that is meant for safestrap and the the mk2 kernel.

In order to run any 4.3 you have to take the MK2 update and update safestrap. I'd recommend staying on the more stable 4.2.2 for now.

i would like to get on the 4.3 wagon due to the roms i posted would it be worth the gamble to move to the 4,3 i am running out of 4.2 roms to try.

and i need to know how to root 4.3
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] DeadlySin9:
It's not worth it to move to 4.3 yet. Half the ROM's don't work and there are plenty of issues with service and data.

If you do want to, however, there is an update thread and a root thread in the general section, and you can find the 4.3 safestrap and modules in this thread.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Galaxy*$4:
thank ya, i just hope there isnt another update for 4.3 by the time we get the bugs worked out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] WordsworthESP:
While I don't necessarily disagree on waiting to update, I'd venture to guess that a lot (though not all) of the issues are user related. I've never had data, service or Wi-Fi issues. I have, however, found that sometimes it's necessary to delete a ROM Slot (not just deactivate) and recreate it, then wipe to get certain ROMs to work. A little bit tedious, but a small sacrifice to make. There are little things here and there you have to do, but I can't compare it to the 4.2.2 version of Safestrap, as I've no experience with it.

It is true that only a few ROMs currently work with 4.3, but new, compatible ROMs are being released every day... as the need for them is only going to increase.
