[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] en11gma:
i like your easy guide you took the time to make

couple questions though

do you have to use adb to reboot to recovery in step 2?

cant we just pull battery and vol up+ home button and power button and it do the same thing?

also i have a us cellular gs3 that was on mja before i installed cwmr 6.0.4.5 and then installed supersu 1..86 to root then installed cm11 nightly (dec 21st)

can you tell us us cellular people what we can do to achieve the same steps to get to an earlier stock official rom?

maybe the mja OTA update will come on and allow update and maybe it wont i dont really care
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] toeshot:
No you don't need adb, to me it is just easier that way.

I am asuming you got the 4.3 update and you are wanting to go back to an earlier rom?

Unfortunatelly I don't have a clue. I don't use US Celluar or have a phone from them. The files i listed, would most likely not work for the radio or the rom. The steps would be the same you would just need the proper files for US Celluar. I am sorry I don't know what they would be.

can you helpme please

hii excuseme i have that problem can you share the links of the rom and the custom kernel please, and iam soorry for mi english im a latin..!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mechmessiah:
I have a Galaxy S3, I535, Verizon. after the 4.3 update my phone would show no service, and i would have numerous close out, contacts, settings, etc. i tried hooking it up to Kies and re-installing the Firmware and i have had no luck. I have Odin and Android SDK manager, but really i have no idea what I'm doing. i need some assistance to walk me through some of these processes to get this thing working again. I don't have the money to be buying a new phone or adding another line.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Hellfireworks:
root...

Follow these steps to get root access on 4.3, this will also remove that KNOX stuff, I was running unrooted 4.3, following those instructions I was able to root without any issues, flash TWRP 2.5.0.0 if it's a T-Mobile (d2tmo) device, it seems that there are issues with 2.6.x.x versions.

hope it helps! best of luck

i already flash step 1 but i cant access it.

and can you sent me download files for the step 2 3 4 5

My Steps:

1. In Odin Flash (twrp 2.6.3.0)

2. Use adb to reboot recovery (adb reboot recovery)

3. Flash custom rom (T999_4.3_UVUEMJC_deodexed2.zip)

4. Flash custom Kernel (T999_AT&T_UCUEMJ2_Insecure_kernel.zip)

5. Installed and used 'Triangle Away' to reset Custom Binary Counter to 0 (Optional)

6. Use Odin to flash official MJC ROM (Grabbed from SAMMOBILE.COM)

Phone is back to stock and working, It still has the 'Warranty Bit 1' set though.

For some reason XDA won't let me upload the files. I will put them on my FTP server. PM me if you need them.

[EDIT] I see that it did upload the recovery even though it didn't say it did. The other files I will put on my FTP Server

I changed my pass code a few days before the card ran out, (I use straight talk) and so I put it down for a month or so (To save money seeing I don't really use it to talk to people much). Well, now I forgot my pass code and I can't get past it. I've tried over 200x and it's getting annoying. I don't want to reset it because I have things on there that I would like to keep, but if that's the only way to do it then I guess I can live with out them.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thcaddict:
So I have my stock S4 on MJ7 rooted already, now I want to flash custom recovery or boot strap recovery, but when I run the safestrap .apk on my phone it just makes Titanium Backup and KNOX both crash, and then I try booting into recovery but my phone just boots like normal, with no recovery option. How can I get this custom recovery on my MJ7 phone so I can start flashing custom ROMs? I absolutely can not stand this stock touchwiz crap. Sorry if this has been explained before, but the verizon section is so full of threads its impossible to find anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mateopase:
All we have is root on 4.3 right now. No Safestrap or Loki, so no custom recovery. Sorry.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LemonSlice:
We should presumably be able to get Safestrap soon since hashcode has it working on the Note 3 with 4.3 but at this point yes there is currently nothing other than a root. A totally unlocked bootloader isn't anywhere in sight either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Crawshayi:
That's sort of an understatement. You could have used search and found your answer in about 5 seconds.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thcaddict:
thanks for the reply. I was unaware there is no custom recovery, or anything else besides root. I can't wait until I can put a new ROM on this phone. I really wish I would not have ran the update as soon as I bought it. Coming from an s3 with custom roms for the last year its a real bummer having to run TouchWiz.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thcaddict:
may I ask what is loki? I just moved to Verizon from another carrier... didn't have to put up with locked bootloaders or anything ridiculous like that with my old carrier
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
Loki is an exploitation method to bypass bootloader checks, which allows you to run full custom recoveries, kernels, etc.

Unfortunately, only the first firmware that this phone came out with, MDK, can use Loki.

I was in your situation, if you want to run AOSP on a VZW S4, buy an MDK version on Swappa, that's what I did.

Where is the directions for root on MJ7
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skny:
Not sure if the OP tried to use the search - but I've tried to use it several times over the past week and have gotten error messages from the site each & every time.

As a matter of fact - prior to submitting this reply - I received two different error messages when trying to search the word "root" in the "Search This Forum" box - just to test it out before I reply.

The "usual" error I get is: Search is temporarily unavailable. We apologize for the inconvenience.

The other one lists actual trouble codes & has a link to notify an admin.

Believe me - I'm all for searching out info on forums - but when there are 7 sub-forums for the Verizon Galaxy S4 - and the search function isn't working - it's pretty easy to not find the info you're looking for.

Also - to the person asking about root on MJ7 - see the Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4 General forum - and find the post titled "How to Root Build MJ7 and get SuperSU installed"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fillyo:
There is no working safestrap version or custom recovery for MJ7. Custom recovery can only be installed on MDK. Safestrap works on ME7 and MI1, but flaky on MI1 from what I have read. You are SOL.

There is also this video by Tomsgt123 which lays it out nicely and tells you how to delete the chinese superuser app (if you are worried about that). I have not tried this method myself, just found the video while searching.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] iviyth0s:
This works well, rooted my dad's S4 this way and it put the american/english supersu app in there in place of the chinese one at the end :)

No unlocked boot loader/custom recovery yet but I check back every week
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crazysoccerman:
Can you achieve more on loki than safestrap?

Specifically, can you flash custom kernels?

If so I may jump ship for the g2 since it has loki support

I thought they had the same limitations.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
Not speaking about the G2, but loki allows you to bypass the locked bootloader, which then permits you to flash whatever recovery, kernels, and ROMs that you want. On the I545, once you're past MDK, Loki won't work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crazysoccerman:
I thought safestrap did the same thing?

You can't flash kernels on safestrap, right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
Correct, which is why it's not the same thing as Loki'd MDK. On anything later than MDK, you can't replace the stock recovery (but can boot into a Safestrap recovery), can't flash custom kernels, etc. On MDK, you can flash any ROM that's compatible with the phone's hardware. Using Safestrap, you can only use ROMs that are compatible with the stock kernel.

Safestrap gets you most of what you get from an unlocked bootloader, just not everything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crazysoccerman:
Thanks for your help. I made sure to hit the thanks button.

I'm going to return my s4 for a g2.

I don't think samsung and verizon considered the cost of returned phones because of lack of mod ability. Hopefully users on verizon and at&t aren't witnessing the end of a modding era.

It's sad to see what two years since I purchased my gnex has brought to the modding community. Rather than making awesome new features, developers are fighting for the ability to mod at all.

I also find it hypocritical that newer versions of android and proprietary interfaces have copied features that were originally on custom mods.

Is anyone having any issue using non Google maps/nav for extended periods of journey. I'm talking for periods >3 hours to say the very least.

I noticed that only Google maps/nav keeps GPS hooked on for hours.

Any other apps I use like nav maps, waze, etc, after like 30 mins (anywhere between 30-180 mins), it just knocks off GPS. The only way to get it back again is restarting phone.

I had this problem, too. The problem was that the Headset connection got deactivated immediately after a call was made (saw the Headset button going from green to grey when the call screen appeared). Pressing the Headset button again to reactivate it worked. Had to do that a few times. Now the problem is gone, the connection stays activated. I did reboot/cache wiped my phone at some point, but since I don't have the problem anymore, I can't reproduce what I did to check what did the trick. I'd start with reactivating the connection when it gets lost and than reboot.
