[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Kamaole:
The s4 bootloader will not be unlocked again. The only hope we have is a loki-que exploit. Jeboo's new patch allows the live booting of unsigned modules but only until the memory is erase (i.e. reboot). I believe I read somewhere from hash code that he is trying to get jeboos patch to work with kexec so it can be used during boot in combination with safestrap to load custom kernals and in turn, allowing the use of aosp roms.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2578566&page=3

Please correct me if I'm wrong on any of this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] mg2195:
The bootloader was never and has never been unlocked, and will never be unlocked by ATT, nor will any future ATT phones come with an unlocked bootloader. what youre refering to was loki which was an exploit/workaround that allowed custom kernels, it was not an unlock...but it did get the job done.

All we can do now is hope hashcode can get kexec working with safestrap or some other loki-like exploit
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] MattMJB0188:
Thanks for clearing that up. I was always under the impression it was unlocked because we were able to run CWM/TWRP.

Highly doubt AT&T will ever unlock the bootloader, but it would be nice if we had an AT&T developer edition of the S4.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] SouthernEvo:
More than likely my next phone will be a Nexus device . I went with the S4 due to the SD card slot and removable battery . Also I don't see the nexus line ever going to this configuration but to have an unlocked device that I am able to manipulate the system on it as I should with a device that is mine . I will have to lose in other catagories to gain in others so be it . Just pretty much over this cat and mouse game with carriers / manufacturers dealing with locked unlocked bootloaders and force fed bloatware .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] nyarrgh:
I'm pretty sure my next phone will NOT be ATT. Other than that I'm still pretty open brand-wise
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] darthmalus:
i really like my S4 with my tax refund im just going to get buy an international version of it, and sell my at&t branded one. or trade it for something else like an iphone to play with. Or ill wait and see how the S5 looks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jeboo:
As was mentioned already, kexec is probably the only feasible solution at this point. The ATT/VZW BL bounties have been 5k+ (I think) for months on end with no reportable progress.

If I stick with Sammy for the S5, it will be the international version since I pay full price anyways. They have a huge dev community and strong user base, something ATT/VZW has ruined :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] AxAtAx:
As been stated, there will be no bootloader unlocked for the att s4..what a crock...I have since moved on to the Note3 tmo UNLOCKED device. I still use my S4, frankly, I have no problem using loki on the phone....I have never let any of my phones ever do updates, never seen one upgrade with the OTA...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] bvzxa3:
Sad this happened because I really liked the S4. All my HTC phones are unlocked, S-Off and the whole nine. I had this phone for only 4 days and besides it's beauty, it was a disheartening experience. I think this trumps the Optimus L9's experience of a locked bootloader. Even the Optimus G Pro's bootloader can be unlocked using an app.

I think Sammy wants to be Apple in regards to how Apple has a user experience of being locked. Also with the fake S3s/S4s/Note out there they probably do not want their software cloned.

I will say in the 4 days I had it it prompted me to start a business. I learned how to root and unlock the phone just by switching modems and running regionlockaway.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] arnuckwade:
I think the culprit for the locked bootloader is att not sammy.. i remember reading about it once, not so sure but it had something to do with some encryption done by att for the MF3 update..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] hednik:
MDL never had an unlocked bootloader
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeadlySin9:
Samsung is fine with unlocked bootloaders. Carriers request the locks, and ours has never been unlocked. They probably made Samsung to patch loki in a sense, as keeping the bootloader locked and unexploitable was probably in the deal at&t made to get the S4 and Samsung is simply protecting their interests.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] mg2195:
Edit disregard
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] thatsupnow:
I think at&t guys will just have to be patient and wait it out, eventually somebody will figure out how to unlock the bootloader I remember back when I had an xperia x10 and that thing was locked down tight and like a year later a way was figured out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] mocsab:
I will never buy an ATT phone again - I buy TMOBILE and then run it on the ATT NETWORK.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeadlySin9:
But then there's also examples like the Droid Bionic, locked down pretty hard. There's no conclusive evidence on whether or not it will be unlocked, but between people working on it and tracking progress in the verizon forums and Hashcode working on Safestrap and getting us kexec, we'll get our freedom somehow.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] mocsab:
I get great LTE Speeds - I just have to manually enter my APNS when I flash a new rom - (unless I flash an ATT ROM of course.)

Lots of people are buying tmobile roms that are on ATT - I expect more will do that if and when the S5 comes out
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] omino323:
Can At&t unlock you bootloader?

First is "unlocking your device" the same as unlocking your bootloader? Also if you are done paying off your device will at&t unlock your bootloader for you?:confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
Sim unlocking is different than unlocking the bootloader. And, no, paying off your device will not get you the opportunity to unlock the bootloader

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jojo_Burton:
I installed the wrong ROM on my phone and never made a backup. I have the S4 mini intl GT-I9195, It just bootloops now. For some reason I'm having issues pushing a rom to the phone with ADB while in CWM. I cant get it to recognize via "adb devices" command, but I just remembered I can install an external SD card into this phone.

Will CWM or ODIN recognize the external SD card and install a ROM? :confused: I can still get into recovery so if I can put a rom on the external I'll try that instead. I just dont have one on me right now and dont want to buy one if I dont have to.

Thank you!

[General Questions and Answers] Antara33:
Hi guys, I have a really simple answer. Can you please tell me more benchmarks that run on screen like gfx bench? I need to find a more demanding one that Trex HD from gfx bench to test performance on devices that have "vsync limit" with onscreen test. Thx for any info!
[General Questions and Answers] guardian_rony:
You can try basemark's GPU test, or even better play a game while tethered to GameBench. Gamebench will give you fps, stability, CPU and GPU usage metrics. Basemark will run a standardised render and give you data similar to GFX Bench. I don't know which one's more accurate though. But that's what I do to test phones.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] skuyumcu:
hello dear friends; here is lots of expert users in the forum;

I bought an AT&T phone, the seller ask me to do it is s-off, I said yes;

Everything was working fine, but when I wanted to update its ROM to ARHD 41 (4.4),

My phone became just a waste for me :(

I can enter hboot, I could upload a twrp 2.6.3.3, I can use adb sdeload,

And also I can flash a ROM, but; it is not starting,

when I power on it, HTC logo is showing, it is getting a Reset and after this it is directly going yo TWRP screen

and then doing this in a loop :(

There is no expert to correct this problem in my country :(

And the service will not repair it because it is an AT&T device.

If one of you be my guide, I will be greatful to you :(

I have tried too many things and now I am very tired to try something :(

I also changed the cid to upload a new ruu, or I tried to make partitions again etc etc :(((((

By the way I cannot wipe the phone from TWRP, it is getting an error : unable to mount /cache and /data

If you explain me what to do step by step I can easily apply it.

Which raido? Which firmware? Which rom? Which RUU? etc... To give it a life again :(

My main target is to use a stable and fast custom rom. (Like maximus or arhd)

Edit your post and remove your serial no and the modelid was ok to leave. you already said it's at&t.

you said you flashed recovery

did you clear cache after ?

did you check the MD5 of the rom you downloaded before flashing it ?

your phone shows it was developers edition last .. is this correct ?

your probably going to need to RUU back to stock.

but first try booting to bootloader fastboot USB

and from your pc

fastboot erase cache

fastboot reboot-bootloader and try and flash your Rom again (if it passed the md5 check)

Actually I have no problem; It's signal bars are indicating lower than my old IPhone 4S,

but its coverage and signal quality(also sound quality) is much better than it :confused:

I just wanted to be sure by asking you,

And another thing it is writing a caution with red color while booting (This rom is a development purposes only etc. bla bla bla)

This is not bothering me, it can write, if there won't be any problem with stability or performance

Thank you again for your answers ;)

I've searched for a good three hours now and can't find a solution. Here's my problem, I got root, I got TWRP, I tried to install cyanogenmod, when it's installing it just stops and says FAILED in big red letters. The small letters say error executing update binary in "cyanogenmod.zip" I tried rebooting into android it just goes back to twrp. ive tried reflashing the .zip, same error. I've tried every flash to stock method I could find and those get stuck on the attached picture's step. I'm really close to giving up and am very frustrated. please help thanks. Oh and i have the att version.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtmaher:
I'm having a very similar problem. I was able to install TWRP just fine. However, during the installation of Cyanogenmod 10.2, it gave me these error messages: "assert failed: run_program("/sys/bin/loki.sh," "E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcar", and "Error flashing zip '/sdcard/cm-10.2.0-d800.zip.'" Now, whenever I turn my phone on, it displays the LG logo with "Security Error" written underneath it. I tried doing a factory reset in TWRP, but that didn't fix the problem.

Here's loki.sh:

#!/sbin/sh
#
# This leverages the loki_patch utility created by djrbliss which allows us
# to bypass the bootloader checks on jfltevzw and jflteatt
# See here for more information on loki: https://github.com/djrbliss/loki

export C=/tmp/loki_tmpdir

mkdir -p $C
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot of=$C/aboot.img
/system/bin/loki_patch boot $C/aboot.img /tmp/boot.img $C/boot.lok || exit 1
/system/bin/loki_flash boot $C/boot.lok || exit 1
rm -rf $C
exit 0

Edit:

I ended up using this guide to revert my G2 to its original state. While I'm not sure why Cyanogenmod failed to install, I suspect it may be because the version I used was not designed for the most recent OTA update (10o).

I don't think it was a bad download. I think it has something to do with the recovery. But I've searched and searched can't find anything. Don't want to ask here because if it has been asked here before it would cause an uproar. Lol. Anyway prolly going to give up. I do miss CyanogenMod. But I'm obviously not smart enough
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danaconda_:
I posted in a Q&A thread last week about the same issue. Once you take an update (10o for at&t) your boot.img is changed and won't be recognized when trying to flash. If you revert back to stock, you should be able to regain root, install recovery and flash.

Edit: found the thread. datechnerd even posted some modified roms for 10o. I think he did same for other variants.

I don't know anything about green CWM red is available on the link provided though if it becomes an issue. You'll need a CWM flashable ROM and it sounds like you want a cleaned up stock version, others seems to have themes and other options you may not want, I didn't, performance is fine but I really didn't want to change the look. In that case you'll want this one:

In CWM wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, format system, format data, format cache, install zip from SD card select ROM and flash then install zip from SD card select kernel and flash then reboot you'll have to uninstall the ATT stuff yourself or not, be careful that you don't remove apps needed by the system to function or by other system apps, most of the stuff with ATT in the name is safe and you need to remove tethering manager to be able to ever tether. Titanium backup root (TB) can uninstall them, be sure to first backup your new stock ROM in CWM before you start making changes because if you rip out the wrong apps you'll need to restore to boot. Use TB to backup an app if your not sure so you might not have to do a full restore. Be patient during boots.
