All,

I was on stock ROM(4.2.1) to Houston's 4.4 using philz recovery. After that I decided to try CM11, so Installed CM11 and after 2 days, I had an issue which forced me to restore to stock nandroid backup. During installing cm11, in philz recovery settings, i changed the path to data\media\0, so that I can find the files stored under folder "0", which i forgot while restoring the stock nandroid. so, while restoring stock nandroid, I did factory reset, format cache, Advanced--> format system, data, cache... so, now the best part, after restoring everything, all the data in the "0" folder is gone...... compeltely wiped... and my phone's internal memory is showing 24 gb free of 25 gb... is there a way to restore the wiped data?
[LG Optimus G (International)] hasan4791:
I don think so it would be possible... But there may be some way.... Even i did the same mistake before but luckily i had backup of my internal storage which helped me out...

T-Mobile finally pushed the 4.3 update earlier today but DO NOT UPDATE YOUR PHONE IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR ROOT! It comes with a locked bootloader. Therefore, once you are on 4.3 stock, you can only flash stock firmwares then. If you try to root your phone on 4.3 with the standard method, it will blow your efuse and void your warranty!

AGAIN, DO NOT UPDATE 4.3 VIA OTA OR ODIN IF YOU DON'T WANT TO VOID YOUR WARRANTY. IF YOU HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THAT, FEEL FREE TO UPDATE

DO NOT FLASH MODEMS/BASEBAND EITHER..... does not let u make phone calls on the leaked 4.3 tw version..... or the regular 4.2.2 version and like some1 said 4.4..... not sure if it works on the official 4.3 tw released today since no dev has released a rom of it... so do not flash if u need to make or receive phone calls makes ur phone freeze and wont make the actual call

If you already flashed the new modem and want to get back to MDL to make phone calls lol here it is
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gypsy214:
I dont think it comes with a lock bootloader but more of with new knox flash counter.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gdmlaz:
Is already confirmed that it comes with LOCKED bootloaded

All Samsung bootloaders have been locked after MH8. This is part of Knox security.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gypsy214:
Thanks dude. I was to the point that I didnt cared if my knox counter was stripped but now with lock bootloader plus lock modem it seems useless. Samsung is trying really hard to keep it lock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tunasty:
They are just trying to be more like Apple how they have been trying to avoid Jailbreak. Samsung is trying to avoid root. #DumbF**ks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lgkahn:
if that is the case I will not buy any more Samsung.. that is why I bought the tmobile version even though I am on At&t .. total bs.

The only difference is that HTC gives you the option to unlock boooader on htcdev.com

Lg in the other hand they just dont give out any source code
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lgkahn:
so it looks like next phone is the htc at least they give you option to unlock.. last htc phone I had was the original nexus.

Samsung really needs to give us options to unlock and get rid of the knox bull ****.. or do you think this latest firmware foobar was tmobiles idea.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gypsy214:
Thats good then what you do with the modem? Somehow this time its attached to the bootloader. Having a 4.3 tmo rom without it is like having a custom 9505 4.3 rom. Having issues with signal data turning off in deep sleep
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lgkahn:
I don't think so.. as far as I can tell from reading in the 4.3 threads on the i9505 forum.. the wifi/signal issues/not working

have to do with NOT having the newer/compatible 4.3 kernel with the modem, not the bootloader.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gdmlaz:
Nope we do have a compatible kernel which is KTOON 4.3 tw kernel when I flashed the new modem on the leaked 4.3 tw version we had everything worked fine you could put the phone to sleep in 4g mode and won't lose any signal like before...... But it just wouldn't make calls since like they stated it has to be tied down to the new bootloader..... So it is deff not a kernel but MODEM/BOOTLOADER problem now......
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lgkahn:
that sucks.. guess no updating to 4.3 if that is true... unless a workaround is found.

have you tried it with stock 4.3 kernel which comes with this update... make there is something new in it. But I think the stock kernel needs to be modded first

to set selinux/permissive and disable knox,., so just don't blindly flash it. I find it hard to believe that something in the phone even checks the bootloader version once it is booted up.. and which bootloader 1, 2 or 3?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gypsy214:
Thats my point. We need that modem to make the phone work nice on 4.3 roms but without that stock bootloader it will not work. As you stated it before not working with 4.4 either. Somehow samsung thought about this. That people will get away with knox with just the modem. So decided to make it this way to mess with us
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tunasty:
To be honest, Im just tired of TW now. Been using AOSP/AOKP/IOKP roms. Im beyond satisfied and don't care for TW anymore. Plus the new 4.4 KitKat is just too sexy ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gypsy214:
Yup I agree and the new n5 with ois its even better :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lgkahn:
I guess we can flash 4.4 kitkat from the google edition when it comes out, or even the current ge 4.3... like you say and just blow off touchwiz.. but I tend to like it.. but what modem are you using.. the old mdl one? I believe we need to keep the tmobile modem in our phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] shiamatsu:
Did the modem for the i9505 have the problem also? Or was it already easy to install w/o problems from the start?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tunasty:
Yup running 4.4 with the old M919UVUAMDL modem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lgkahn:
well at least the mdl modem seems to work pretty well even on at&T. Also the sound recording on this phone in videos is way better than my S3 at concerts.

my current setup is

stock mdl 4.2.2 rooted and bebloated myself with philz touch recovery and google wallet working.

Even duplicated setup as a hannukah gift in another m919 phone I am giving to my son this week.

Have to decide what phone or firmware will be next.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lgkahn:
don't think it had that prolem as I think there are versions of tw 4.3 out with working modems and no know or locked bootloader. But it may just be because they didn't lock the bootloader and people were able to upgrade the bootloader to an non knox version.

I don't care about wifi calling as I am on at&T in fact would prefer standard sip to be built in instead.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] chenxiaolong:
Need to wait until after finals for that. Calling the wifi calling IMS libraries using Java reflection is a huge pain :( I'm not sure if I'll stick with Samsung's IMS libraries though. They're using it for some other stuff, like VoLTE, which makes things more complicated.

Anyway, I'll stop being OT.

no google edition is different hardware as far as I know.. doesn't have all the same frequencies so definitely will not work on tmobile maybe at&t but in general flashing the wrong modems on the different s4 variants is a NO NO.

CWM backup wont do any good once your on 4.3
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gypsy214:
Whats really annoying is the modem to be lock with the bootloader. I dont go much to 9505 thread but I wonder if this time samsung made it harder on the m919 than the 9505.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Cynagen:
If you read the thread, and the others posted around about the 4.3 update, then you would know already that the modem and bootloaders are linked somehow, and while the modem will boot without the KNOX'd bootloader, it most certainly will NOT work for calls, making this a system-breaking bug.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] xdapowerapps:
I stated this in previous threads that KNOX was BS but I'm hoping someone can hack the bootloader. Just wait for recovery flashable ROMs and you'll enjoy 4.3/4.4 without the KNOX bootloader. I'm in no rush to upgrade from 4.2.2 MDL.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dcd1182:
i dont get what the problem is/what you want.

knox is not stopping anybody from doing anything to their device. theres nothing to hack, unless you mean to reset the flag.

you're not going to use mk2 baseband without it.

so if you only want system and boot, thats been available for weeks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] xdapowerapps:
I don't think I could have made my post any clearer... I've flashed 4.3 ROMs from GPE and others, I am speaking of TMOs 4.3 stock with no KNOX bootloader or flash different modems... unless that already exists and I am not aware of?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dcd1182:
if tmo TW is what youre after then the latest boot/system available would have been MI9.

well your post said you hope someone can hack the bootloader. i asked for what need. i dont see where you explained that. maybe thats what you could have made "clearer"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
HTC doesn't really let you unlock bootloaders. They just let you basically change the label that SAYS locked to unlocked. But unlocking an HTC phone with HTCDev doesn't give you a bootlaoder that you can actually use to modify the phone with. In most cases i makes it MORE difficult to root the device as you usually have to end up reverting back to an older locked bootloader and use a normal root method.

So don't feel like the grass is always greener. The HTC Dev unlocking thing is a joke.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tunasty:
Yes he did. You can still root and install roms, you will just trip your counter and void the warranty.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chunko:
Just a few questions about this update:

Does this version allow transferring apps to sd card finally?

Does the update reinstall bloatware?

Is rooting still possible?

Any hardware related improvements?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tunasty:
Yes you can transfer your apps and rooting is still possible, it just voids your warranty. Thats all. Read the op for any confusion.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tyler.Boston1:
It is still possible to upgrade to the new baseband and use 4.3 i9505 4.4 kitkat roms and other carrier roms on higher firmware. If you are still on 4.2.2 with MDL baseband head over here. This is not my work but i am trying to spread the word and makesure people know theres a workaround.

No data drops on any new firmware and KNOX free.

used to be that the stock rom would replace stock recovery at boot

i think thats the issue, since you're the 3rd report of that (and I think thats why all this "locked bootloader" misinformation, because really, theres no protections in MK2 that werent in MDL)

try booting into recovery immediately after flashing it and see which recovery you get.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gruuvin:
I, like many others I presume, am waiting to perform the update until I know better about the pros and cons of this "upgrade" (or downgrade, as it may seem).

There seems to be some mixed messages and misinformation about the new update, KNOX, locked bootloader, and what is keeping us from rooting without breaking warrantee.

This post implies that KNOX is a "Samsung security policy update" that is optional and separate from the large update to Android 4.3:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47875927&postcount=255

This post references an "IT" upgrade that was also mentioned in the last link:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47888702&postcount=69

So, can we upgrade to the stock 4.3 update that is now rolling out without installing KNOX? ... and if so, would that circumvent blowing the chip fuse and voiding warrantee on further rooting? Since not many people are talking about this KNOX being a separate security update that is optional, how have such a small percentage of people gotten the ability to opt out of installing KNOX (update via Kies)?

I have also heard that the battery usage is not as efficient with the new update. Can anybody confirm or deny the battery draining more quickly with this new update?

I understand that you can root the new 4.3 MK2, but I have seen multiple posts saying you can and can not install custom roms.

Can I get some closure on this?

I have a galaxy gear watch, and want a 4.3 TW rom to support the watch, while maintaining LTE, which is kind of impossible with a custom ROM. So, I am about to install MK2, and root it. But!! when some dev makes a custom, knox free, unlocked version of 4.3.... I am going to want it, obviously. Will I be able to flash one when it comes out?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dcd1182:
oh yeah,

the recovery images that are out there for jf right now are built with a crappy fstab that will make you fail to boot recovery/os sometimes.

if you got the red and yellow lines, you did have CWM installed.

just hold power, vol, home until it reboots and it should go in on 2nd or 3rd try.

---------- Post added at 10:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:45 AM ----------

no, it certainly does not and you all need to stop spreading this misinformation already.

what is happenning here is that one or two people failed to get into CWM because of user issues not specific to MK2 - MDL did the same thing and everybody has forgotten. But other people rushed to a development site to spread the conclusions they jumped to without even attempting to test it. I realize that people are trying to be helpful, but its not. This is a development site.

last edit: heres a recovery built with my fstab. it will still hang on only the very first attempt to enter it after installing it, and i havent figured out why. just reboot - the 2nd+ attempts will always succeed.

the stock rom will still overwrite this if you allow it to boot.

somebody feel free to make a tar. maybe this will cut down these misunderstandings.

The Galaxy S4 M919V 4.3 Upgrade story...

To separate facts from fiction her my experience:

I got upgrade 4.3 with OTA, next, without reading the comments, I root my S4 M19V & install CWM with Odin (No issues so far).

For curiosity only I downloaded & install Knox, find it useless for personal use & uninstall it.

Then, after reading comment on "frying", guessing & assumptions, I decided to test an idea: remove root & reinstall again the stock firmware with Odin.

Now, I am back to stock and my s4 status is Official, moreover, checked in Download mode & the S4 is official also !

After all the cycle, no damage & still under warranty. Now I can go back & root my phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] driodman98:
so you saying you can remove knox after you install it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lgkahn:
that is not misinformation if the stock rom is overwriting recorvery with stock recovery on every boot it means custom recoveries basically don't work.. IT is not desireable to have to flash a recovery everytime you want to boot into it.. So it IS adviseable to not flash the stock rom as is if you need a custom recovery that is what I was saying.

Anybody with a wifi issue?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] mgbotoe:
Part of knox.

Honestly even if you can flash recovery, special roms...its still a heart ache with knox around. I suggest you wait around for a custom rom that does not ahve any of those. Jovy put out a very very stock one just now, without knox so he says, go give that a shot and see if you still get the issues.
