Roms using Safestrap

I'm slowly building up the courage to flash Safestrap, as using slots is very foreign to me and until I learn something, I'm always afraid I'll brick my phone. Saying that, I saw a comment saying that basically if we flash a Touchwiz ROM, that should be compatible with Safestrap. Is there a General Questions section or something that show what Roms might be compatible with SS? Maybe one could be (or has been) started and people could comment and state what their running if it's compatible or not?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] rayburne:
Yes, there is a General Section for the S4.

There is already a thread with additional Safestrap info including working Roms here.

Any Touchwiz 4.2.2 Rom should work.

Good Luck.

i bit the bullet here last Saturday, and i was pretty scared but i knew if i followed hash, and everybody elses advice and there choice of rom. now i am running deadly venom rom and love it.

for everybody else i found this out last night so figure i would share

i have noticed that when i delete a rom off a rom slot. i didnt get that space back,

so i deleted my old roms off the internal memory, (which didnt help), so i did a factory wipe then instilled safe strap (not sure if i had to do it)

i went from 4gb to 9gb on a rom slot.

edit now i dont have enough space to flash another rom, i figure i could have 3 roms (including stock) i used a 2gb portion on deadly venom. and i started with 9gb what happened

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] deadenz:
it's based on the mdl firmware so phones that came shipped with the mf3 firmware wouldn't be able to use this right? and it also uses a different kernel than the mf3 kernel that hascode says to flash after each rom or does that not even matter since we're using safestrap? I assumed we could only use custom roms where the kernel matches our stock rom kernel
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mrro82:
The way I understand it is we can flash this with safe strap and it will work because of the modules zip that hash made. We should be flashing that right after flashing a rom to get everything to work properly. Kernel wise- As long as it's a stock kernel we're good. CM kernels based roms don't work because they are based on that kernel and not the Samsung stock kernel. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

I just tried infamous and settings kept force closing in the setup and I couldn't get past it so it didn't work for me.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] DeadlySin9:
If you want you can flash the NI1 ROM from its root thread and then flash the modem and recovery in ODIN. If I remember correctly the ROM includes the bootloader files already. You just flash that and SuperSU, and then once you're on NI1 you should uninstall Safestrap and install the newest version. Then you are free to move to the GPE, making sure you get the NI1 modules for your Wi-Fi.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] muniz_ri:
I would suggest that you odin up to NB1 using one of these .tar files: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2674223, then take the NI1 OTA update then follow the how-to root guide: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-att/general/how-to-root-i337ucufni1-t2881298

I removed the bootloader from the NI1 100% Stock ROM at the bottom of the root guide to minimize the chance of people hardbricking should they flash it after taking the next ota update(assuming the next update upticks the qfuse counter). And by running the ROM while still on the MK2 BL you can expect bugs mainly with security settings and lockscreen.

Is it possible
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] brooklynite:
I have the same issue.

Safe System: Not Active

so

Reboot to Recovery only locks up during reboot on the Samsung broken lock screen.

UPDATE: Solved:

1) Busybox need to be installed 1st

2) Run Busybox

3) hit INSTALL BUTTON inside Busybox

4) Install SafeStrap

5) OPEN Safestrap

6) Hit the INSTALL BUTTON INSIDE Safestrap

7) Hit REBOOT RECOVERY inside Safestrap

Not sure why this couldn't all be in one step but this is the way it is now. I had not done it exactly in this specific order.

I did search, what I'm afraid of is newest firmware locks the bootloader, like newest version added KNOX, I just want to cover my bases.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Murasakiii:
Sounds like you guys didn't install busybox. Try that before installing the safestrap apk.

My safe system reports not active but I can reboot into recovery with the app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] brooklynite:
I followed the directions STEP BY STEP, it says install BUSYBOX which I did. It didnt say OPEN THE DARN Busybox and hit INSTALL inside the app.

So yes, I had the order reversed and I guess that may be the issue. So now I dont know how to go back. I guess I can uninstall and reinstall safestrap from within the app.

UPDATE: uninstalled both and installed Busybox first and worked see update above!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Murasakiii:
XD yeah that's annoying. I've been using androids for about 5 years now so I know that busybox always needs to be installed within the app too. Yeah all you have to do is uninstall it. If you have es explorer it usually prompts to delete all associating folders with the app you're deleting as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] brooklynite:
Interesting, because I have been rooting all my phones up to a year ago (didn't want to mess with the S4 warranty) and never heard of Busybox. Back then it was clockwork mod and it was all good. I guess Samsung blocked the bootloader so things are changing.

Hi Gonehaywire

I am not a dev but if you have Odin running on a machine, why not flash back to stock from this thread--

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-att/general/guide-odin-to-stock-updating-rooting-t2926642

since the phone boot loops to the download (Odin ) screen at startup, then I would go back to NB1--- see the part in this thread under "Odin to NB1 stock. Has the place you can download the stock ROM and instructions for flashing it. I was in a similar predicament with my I337 and followed this thread and it worked painlessly. My experience before the I337 was only with phones with unlocked boot loaders, lots simpler than all of this.

Bear in mind anything on the phone will be lost when doing this i.e. music, photos, settings, apps &c but it should restore the phone to working condition with the stock NB1 ROM.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

I am on NC1 baseband with GE (Golden eya) 5 installed via SS 3.72. I am trying to install the GE lollipop rom. All the instruction I saw was to use SS 3.75 to install the lollipop rom.

I understand that once I am on lollipop rom SS stop working. I need to use NC1 flasher to go into the SS if I need to flash something.

My first question is...

Can I use SS 3.72 to install the lollipop rom.

If I had to use SS 3.75 to install the lollipop rom my question is

How to remove the SS 3.72 in order to install the SS 3.75.

The instruction I found to remove the previously installed SS (3.72) was by using the remove function from the SS app. My GE rom was installed in the stock Slot as such my ss 3.72 is no longer in the app drawer.

Thanks

EDIT: I installed SS 3.72 again and removed the SS from SS app remove function.

I installed flashfire and flashed stock rooted OC4 lollipop rom.

Darthstalker rom using Safestrap recovery

I am kinda new to flashing and trying to use custom roms. I do know most of the basics to flashing.

I am trying to flash a rom but being that my phone will always have a locked bootloader I cant seem to flash any custom roms unless there touchwiz based so I found a rom that I like which being the darthstalker rom (unless you suggest a better one)

I was using safestrap and was able to flash the darthstalker rom to my phone but everytime I hit reboot to start up my new custom rom it would either put me back into the safestrap or my stock recovery. how do I get around that..

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Hey, don't worry, this "locked bootloader" thing really makes life more complicated. When you flash a custom Touchwiz rom, you need to make sure that you flash the appropriate kernel and modules to go with it.

Be sure to slap the thanks buttons for those developers, they have done a really good job working through our locked boot loader issue.

One of the problems you are facing with the Darthstalker Rom, is that it is based on Android 4.3, which should require an M** based kernel and modules, however, you cannot downgrade below the NB1 kernel and module, due to the locked bootloader. This is probably why your Darthstalker Rom fails to load.

I hope that helps, and good luck!
