Yes its clear from the tables that both companies did a good job not to let their frequencies overlap at all.

The way you say.. it means that the hardware components of E330K and E330S pertaining to LTE are different. I was of the view that E330S and E330K are exactly the same hardware, just different firmware. And if the hardware is same for both, one's firmware should work correctly on the other.. or no?
[Galaxy S 4 General] davidcsv:
Fact is that their operating frequencies differ. Whether that means the phones have differences in specific hardware components, I don't know for sure. My background is system software development, and so I would assume that some aspects of the modem can be programmatically 'controlled' , but I have a feeling it isn't that simple to explain without access to details of the appropriate hardware components.

Unfortunately, the hardware specifications sheet doesn't give you all the details to determine if both models are identical (excl the software), because if that would be the case, then yes, one could assume both phones to be identical.

Where can I find rom for this phone samsuny shv e330l
[Galaxy S 4 General] dc_power!:
Joseph, did you read the first post in this thread? That's where the answers are...
[Galaxy S 4 General] saintmetal10:
I managed to compare both e330k and e330s from this website pdadb(.)net. I've uploaded the comparison in the pdf file attached with this post. Both the phones have same specification except one thing:

Secondary Cellular Network:

E330K: LTE1800 (B3), LTE900 (B8)

E330S: LTE850 (B5), LTE1800 (B3)

I've also highlighted this in the pdf.

This shows that both phones have this B3 thing common. What do you say to that?
[Galaxy S 4 General] joseph-:
Dont understand
[Galaxy S 4 General] breaker12:
I just want to clarify something sir, since I'm currently running 4.3 on my SHV-E330S

1. Is the quote above applicable even if I flash stock roms from SamMobile.com and live.samsung-updates.com? Do I have to install all zip files between 4.3 to the latest 4.4.2 to be able to install it properly and avoid problems in partition configuration?

This is my target firmware: E330SKSUCNC4

but there are 3 earlier versions of 4.4.2. Do I have to install all of them before proceeding to E330SKSUCNC4? There are also later versions than the current 4.3 version that I have, do I have to install them too?

2. Please give detailed steps on how to install pre-rooted stock roms for SHV-E330S by proxyme as I am just a beginner. Do I also need to install firmwares other than E330SKSUCNB2 or that would be enough to install partition configurations?

Thank you very much! :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] dc_power!:
Stop!!!...for a minute... Do you have the SHV-E300S or the SHV-E330S? The roms for these models are NOT interchangeable.
[Galaxy S 4 General] breaker12:
I'm sorry for the typographical error, sir. I do have the SHV-E330S so I'm just in the right thread. Thanks :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] breaker12:
Anybody who has a SHV-E330S here? Please answer my query above. Thank you!
[Galaxy S 4 General] davidcsv:
1. Yes. You have to find out which versions contain changes to the partition configuration and always make sure to at LEAST flash these in order. You flash with Odin and the firmware image is in a .tar or .tar.md5 archive. If it comes in a zip file, then unpack the .tar or .tar.md5 from the zip file first. You don' have to flash ALL the versions, but you have to have flashed the ones which contain a PIT file at least once before any later version.

2. The PROXYME preloaded roms are stock images, so they are treated same as any other stock image... meaning flash with Odin. Google Odin and you'll get tons of guides on how to use it.
[Galaxy S 4 General] breaker12:
Thank you very much, sir. So I have to download all these stock roms to check if they have pit file? Another thing:

What does this mean? Do I have to wipe data/cache everytime I install a new rom? How? Thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 General] breaker12:
Just installed the prerooted 4.4.2 for SHV-E330S. Root is working and was able to debloat the firmware. But one thing I was disappointed. Before upgrading from 4.3, my battery was draining fast and nothing changed int his new rom. I don't know where the problem really is as i have a new spare battery and the results were the same. Any feedbacks in the battery usage of this phone for other users of SHV-E330S? Thank you!
[Galaxy S 4 General] davidcsv:
Some roms will implicitly wipe data&cache (factory reset), but most will only wipe cache and you get to keep your data. I make it a habit to always wipe data&cache after flashing a new rom, because more than often people experience problems which are related to transitioning from one version to another and a full wipe usually solves many of these issues.

With most of my data stored in the 'cloud' anyway, it's not a lot of trouble to restore a working environment from backups made with a backup tool like Titanium Backup.
[Galaxy S 4 General] davidcsv:
Can you give us an indication of how long one full charge will last in idle mode?
[Galaxy S 4 General] breaker12:
How to do it, sir? Full charge my phone then leave it alone for days? I tried streaming a 10 minute video on youtube via wifi and it slashed 5% of my battery. Please help me with this. Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 General] dc_power!:
That's just about right... watching youtube full screen for 10 minutes drains approx. 5% of battery charge on my E330S too. I suppose it's normal.
[Galaxy S 4 General] mubeen_94:
Will it work on i9506?

Hello Sir,

Will this rom work on the International S4 LTE+ i9506? Have you tested it, because virtually I think both the Korean as well as International versions are the same, if I'm not wrong.............

Awaiting your response...........

By the way, I got my device from Vodafone Australia
[Galaxy S 4 General] davidcsv:
Why would you want to run a Korean version on your phone? Is there something specific on the Korean device you would like on the I9506?
[Galaxy S 4 General] mubeen_94:
Nothing specific..........I just wanted to test the Kitkat version on my device.........there hasn't been an official update yet, so I just wanted to test it out
[Galaxy S 4 General] joseph-:
Where can I get 4.4.2 DeOdexed rom for samsung s4 shv e330l please send me a link thank you
[Galaxy S 4 General] breaker12:
Ah yes, it means the problem is within the rom itself. If you do the same task on the i9505, you will only lose about 2% of battery life. That's a huge gap, isn't it? Considering that SHV-E330S has Snapdragon 800 on it, it's expected to be MORE EFFICIENT than the Snapdragon 600 in the i9505, thereby having more battery life. But it isn't the case in our phone. What do yout hink we can do about this. I was thinking of mailing Samsung to fix this "bug" but I do not know how and if ever they will care about it.
[Galaxy S 4 General] dc_power!:
Interesting to know that the i9505 seems to be more efficient with battery usage. Don't hold your breath waiting for Sammy to do something about it.
[Galaxy S 4 General] breaker12:
But maybe our developers can help us fix it, if only they had focus on it. Seems like i9506 lacks support from developers considering the very limited number of users. In my case, a 2 hours of idle drains 2% of battery. Wifi is disabled and all applications are closed. This is really terrible. Is it the same with you?
[Galaxy S 4 General] dc_power!:
I'll test tonight before going to bed what idle drain time is with Wifi off.

Update:

Am getting approx. 1% per hour drain with Wifi off.
[Galaxy S 4 General] breaker12:
Thanks for the update. There seems to be a problem with that, isn't it? When screen is turned off, it shouldn't consume any battery at all. Maybe we have to report it to Samsung?

On all my S3 (intl/kor/jap) and S4 (intl/kor) models I am getting approx. 1% (some a bit less and others a bit more) per hour usage. I have accepted this as being reasonable. You might be able to get better results if you're brave enough to experiment with custom kernels, but unfortunately I cannot give any valuable feedback regarding that subject due to lack of experience.
[Galaxy S 4 General] mfq:
it,s new update ????
[Galaxy S 4 General] dc_power!:
It's the latest official update for the E330K. It was released a few weeks back I believe. This Proxyme preloaded image has only been uploaded today.
[Galaxy S 4 General] saintmetal10:
Has anyone tried flashing E330S with an E330K rom? Is it recommended?
[Galaxy S 4 General] dc_power!:
Haven't heard from anyone who has tried. If you do, then please do share your experience with us...would be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy S 4 General] saintmetal10:
haha that's the thing.. I'm too afraid to try! Like I tried that before and it soft bricked my phone. But the actual reason for it was that I had 4.4.2 already on phone and I was flashing my E330S with a 4.3 of E330K. I got to know later that if you downgrade you ROM with Odin; phone will be soft bricked.

Now that the latest firmwares of E330K are uploaded, I'm still wary. A guy told me that E330S and E330K might have different hardware. I searched and found that they have exact same hardware except for the following stuff:

Secondary Cellular Network:

E330K: LTE1800 (B3), LTE900 (B8)

E330S: LTE850 (B5), LTE1800 (B3)

The good thing I see here is that B3 is common in both so E330K firmware might work good on E330S. What would you recommend? Should I try it?

Also, whenever I'm trying to backup my data on Kies 3, the apps never get updated. It gives error. I want to have the exact backup so that I have my phone as it is as it was before these experiments.
[Galaxy S 4 General] dc_power!:
As long as it's a soft-brick and you can still access the bootloader (Odin Download mode), then you can Always recover by re-flashing the phone's original rom.

I think Kies doesn't make backups for apps which can be restored to their last state (incl data). I would at least make a backup of the data partition instead, since that's where apps and their corresponding data is stored.

If I would do this experiment, I would start by making a backup of the following partitions on my E330S...

efs -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p11

persdata -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p22

persist -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p21

userdata -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p26

(you need to verify if the partition numbers are the same on your E330K)...oops, sorry, forgot you actually do have the E330S.
[Galaxy S 4 General] breaker12:
As per battery, I think 4.2 works efficiently and has more battery life than on 4.4.2 based on my observations. Is there any way to downgrade "safely" from 4.4.2 pre-rooted rom to official 4.2.2 by Samsung? How? Thank you very much! :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] dc_power!:
Should be possible if you flash a rom image WITHOUT the bootloader components. And most probably data wipe required as well.
[Galaxy S 4 General] breaker12:
How to do it , sir? Do we have any available official 4.2.2 for e330s? Thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 General] davidcsv:
sammobile.com has the 4.2.2 stock roms for download. You just need to create a new Odin flashable by removing the bootloader components.
[Galaxy S 4 General] breaker12:
Thanks again, sir. I know it would be so much for me to ask you this but can you also make one that is pre rooted and without the bootloader components? Just to give other shv e330s owners the freedom to chiose and have good battery life? Thank you very much! :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] dc_power!:
Here is KSUAMI2, the last 4.2.2 version, for the E330S...which consists of only the required boot kernel and platform component. Excluded components are bootloader specific ones and modem.

Important to know is that starting from 4.3, the version between 4.2.2 and 4.4.2, most probably the EFS data structures were upgraded, meaning that since you are downgrading from 4.4.2 to 4.2.2, your imei number amongst other vital communication parameters will be gone and thus prevent your phone from connecting to the network. Whether you are upgrading or downgrading, I strongly advise you to make a backup of your EFS partition/data BEFORE flashing anything.

We're assuming EFS should still be ok, because the 4.2.2 modem isn't in the above linked package and your current one is still from the 4.4.2 rom you've flashed earlier.

---------- Post added at 07:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:44 AM ----------

Seems you are currently on the last known 4.2.2 version for the E300S.

Can you provide screenshots and/or Odin message log dump here in order for us to help you more efficiently?

Your phone has had several 4.3 updates followed by two 4.4.2 updates. Send davidcsv (in a private message) a screenshot of your About Device screen AND Status screen, and he should be able to help you make some progress in getting you updated to 4.4.2 safely.
[Galaxy S 4 General] breaker12:
Thank you very much again sir for the help. :)

Will I use the same process as mentioned in the first page in the thread in installing this rom? Just use Odin then upload using PDA button and that's it?

How can I also backup and restore my EFS in my E330S? There are so many instructions in the web and they all seem different depending on a specific device. Also, to be honest with you, I haven't tried 4.2.2 yet since my phone was already in 4.3 when I bought it from a friend. Do you think there will be an improvement in the battery life? Is there a difference in the battery life from the time you bought your phone until now that you're using Kitkat? Thank you very much again! :)

I'm in a real pickle here...

My phone is bricked and I found all the resources for that already.

However, when I go to flash the firmware on the phone to bring it back to stock it's not allowing me to do it because the battery is at 4%.

I go to charge the phone a it forces itself into bootloops and doesn't charge.

I can get into recovery (CWM--which bricked the phone...likely my fault) but phone doesn't charge there.

I can get into download mode but it doesn't charge there.

WTF is going on!?!?

Can you flash a custom rom through adb sideload?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordo_99:
Edit: No, I'm unable to establish an ADB connection in Recovery to do this. I'd actually tried this already with a stock rom. Thanks though.

Flashing the Cyanogen ROM is what bricked the phone. I'm not able to establish an ADB Connection from Recovery (ClockworksMod) so I'm not able to flash anything in Sideload.

Here's the "Boot-Loop":

Power on (vibrate)

LG logo

"Source Booting Unsuccessful"

"Cause: (blank)"

And it just loops like that any time it's plugged in and not in Recovery/Download modes (which also don't charge).

I've tried a factory reset but that didn't change anything. I also tried restoring my original backup image but that doesn't work either.

Currently I'm trying this:

Hi all- My 16gb US Moto G on 4.4.2 has been nearly problem free and I'm loving it. However, I'm experiencing sync issues when watching videos on Netflix and Hulu+. The video and audio are out of sync by a significant amount and it's distracting to the point that I don't want to watch any shows with the G. Youtube videos seem to stay in sync well enough, so I'm not sure if this is limited only to certain apps. Also, I wasn't on 4.3 long enough to determine if it was an JB / KitKat issue.

Anyone experiencing AV sync issues or have suggestions?
