I don't mind. Just didn't see it until now. Since you have a ATT phone on another carrier, you'll have to decide for yourself what is relevant and what is not.

That said. If you have a MK2 based phone, then your bootloader is locked and you can ignore all the ROM directions that say "make sure that the baseband number should be XXXXXXX". Every KitKat ROM in post 2 will work on i337 phones with mk2, nb1, and nc1 bases with safestrap.

As far as baseband goes, if you look in the system settings, under about device, the "baseband version" listed is your MODEM. You can flash any modem you want from Rockratts thread (linked in OP). I have a feeling the 'baseband" mentioned in your link is referring to the bootloader, which was back when you could bypass the lock. You cannot downgrade back to that bootloader.

The dev for goldeneye has 3 ROMs... Goldeneye, Skyfall, and Maple Leaf. All three have an option for Canadian users during Aroma install, which I assume set the APN settings for you. Those are the only Canadian specific ROMs I am aware of (though I'm sure all the rest will work as long as you manually edit the APN settings)

EDIT - Just realized Canadian option will not work for you since you are on safestrap. You'll have to use ss option during install and then manually set APN settings.

You do not have to upgrade to 4.4.2. As you can see in post 2, i have directions for MK2, NB1, or NC1 users.

Lastly, I'm not familiar with the SIM unlock. If you decide to odin to NB1 base to upgrade, make sure you read up to see if that will have any effect.

I don't want to toot any horns, but...

I've gotten to where all I like in a rom is it has to have the S5 features, like the weather app, music app, and the text app to name a few. By far the best I've tried is Phoenix v9.0 fixed. There really are a ton of others out there now but they all have some kind of major bug. The dev from Phoenix has a mod that a lot of others build into their roms but his mod never works correctly in their patched roms. Seeing how this is his rom, everything works very good. Just wanted to put my 2 cents out their for the 'ol flashaholics like me who are always looking for the next good room. If you're looking for a good S5 rom, check that one out. Sorry [MENTION=2982241]guut13[/MENTION], didn't mean to high jack your thread.

still waiting for a real recovery/unlocked bootloader for this old bird?

is this still all TW only??

I'm sure the answer is somewhere in this long thread and much appreciated to the devs,

but what what I want to really know is when I can flash some aokp on my mk2!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] t4duzan:
The only recovery we have is safestrap. It's only TW roms and there is a GPE rom that works pretty well, as well as some AOSP based TW roms. Definitely not any AOKP roms though. Read through the first page and you'll see all the roms us SS folks are safe to use.

I'm having some trouble figuring out the ROM flashing process for my Galaxy S4. It's currently on NB1 and I rooted via towelroot. I tried installing safestrap and it didn't work. I read also that safestrap 3.72 doesn't allow for custom ROM slots so does that mean I can't flash

I have a noob question (more like a lazy question)... of all the nc1 compatible roms, which is the cleanest, most stable? Basically, I just want all possible bloat removed. I have specific apps I like to use. I have no need for all the Samsung apps, and all the other unnecessary junk... Any suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] t4duzan:
I'll put this one on my list. I'm going to Destin here in a couple of weeks and won't have time to mess with the phone for awhile so I want to find one I'm pretty satisfied with. Which I have found with Phoenix.

Some sad things I've noticed over the last month or so is there are some punks out there who will tear down these devs and 3 of them have threatened to quit. One is the dev for Phoenix, another the dev for Y.C.D. and the other the dev for Samy S5. Some people don't realize the time these guys put into these roms and are so selfish, all they want to do is report negative things and ask for things. Usually these forums are typically for reporting bugs but a lot of people have forgotten that and make it their own playground. Pretty sad what some of these XDA threads have become. It's forcing a lot of people to not want to do what they enjoy. Sorry for the downer. ..didn't know if others have noticed those sort of vibes in some of the forums you might visit also...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Can0dope:
Yes. but you may have to change SELinux to permissive,depending on how you rooted your phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dexterousyash:
Thank you for that. I was able to use odin to flash stock again.

Then I tried the steps in post #2 and installed goldeneye (has AROMA) and it asked to reboot before I could install any other modules.

In the reboot it is stuck in a loop on the samsung logo. What did I miss? Should I not have rebooted?

So frustrating....

Thank you very much for all the help here
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] guut13:
In the Aroma install, you chose safestrap for att, correct?

Since you are running safestrap on a Canadian carrier, I made this updater-script for you for ge35. Directions for replacing updater script are in post 2. When you run the install, select canadian option that way you do not need to configure your apn settings.

You will have to odin back to stock before trying again, though, since you are boot looping.

Also, when aroma installer finishes, uncheck the box next to reboot. Then when you press the reboot button it will take you back to recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dexterousyash:
Thank you very much for the script!

I guess I am moving a step at a time. This time I got through all steps posted in post #2. As you told I chose the Canadian option and not the ATT Safetrap option in Aroma.

Another confusion I had was while flashing the MLD Odin files - there are two for each BL, AP, CP, right? one for safestrap and other called MK2? i flashed the safestrap first and then it rebooted and then I did the mk2 ones.

not sure where I messed up by phone is stuck on samsung logo again. I think i retained safestrap this time, as I see it during boot.

Thanks a ton for all the help through this
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jmjoyas:
You don't need to flash the MK2 ones. You would flash that only if you needed to get to safestrap recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] guut13:
When you odin to stock, which file did you use?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] kevinco1:
Anyway to fix the problem of some ROMs that don't reboot correctly?

For example: when you are using an app like Root Cleaner or Performance Control and 'clear cache and dalvik cache' and it does not automatically reboot your phone. Same thing as Safestrap not restarting your phone after you hit 'reboot to recovery'.

I'm assuming it has to do with permissions but I've researched this for a while and never found a method that works.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jd1639:
Why are you using those apps? They probably do more harm than good
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] kevinco1:
I don't use them that often, I was just thinking of a way to explain the problem that was understandable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jd1639:
Frankly,I don't understand you're logic. What does roms not booting correctly have to do with apps?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] kevinco1:
Exactly..I had a hard time thinking of how to phrase this, maybe it's why I haven't been able to search successfully for a fix.

It has more to do with whatever commands/permissions that are required to reboot your device from somewhere else in the system besides the main reboot screen. Also it may have to do with how the system is rooted, busybox system paths and other permissions.

I think if I focused the search on why Safetrap will not reboot to it's recovery from the app I can nail down the problem and it should apply to the rest of the OS.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] t4duzan:
Personally I use the safestrap app to boot into and find it doesn't work all the time also. It's easier and quicker using the app when it works correctly.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] guut13:
Thanks. Then to answer your earlier question...

Another confusion I had was while flashing the MLD Odin files - there are two for each BL, AP, CP, right? one for safestrap and other called MK2? i flashed the safestrap first and then it rebooted and then I did the mk2 ones.

The MLD files is to flash kitkat roms. the MK2 files is to go back to flashing 4.3 roms. Follow the steps in post 2 for MK2 users starting with "First time installing a 4.4.2 ROM:" and you should be fine. Like is says, use the MLD files, not the MK2 ones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dexterousyash:
Thank you very much for all your help.

I had to pick the ATT for safestrap option in AROMA rather than the Canadian. I guess I can pick the Canadian option if it also had the safestrap option. But not at present. After that I tried tethering and that worked too.

Thank you very much!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] guut13:
Well I'm glad you are up and running, but I think you misunderstood by earlier post. The updater-script I provided, if swapped out with the one in the ge35 ROM, would allow you to pick the Canadian option in aroma, even though you were on safestrap.

ehh... now you know for next time. Enjoy the new ROM.

No. You do not have to odin back to stock before following the steps in the nc1 upgrade post. In fact, I often follow the steps after bricking my phone.

After you upgrade to NB1 (first part of the instructions), you CANNOT odin back to mk2.

If I helped you in any way...make sure to say Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] guut13:
Sorry. I think I interpreted your initial questions incorrectly. Just to be clear...

The only official way to "UPGRADE" to version nc1 is to odin NB1 base and then update to NC1 base. These directions are outlined in post 5. Once you Odin to NB1, you can no longer go back to MK2.

Post 2 is all about flashing ROMs... and there is a stock NC1 ROM listed, but I don't consider it upgrading... and I think that is where my confusion started. (I, personally, look at is as being able to run kitkat ROMs while on MK2 base.)

Now that I am on the same page with you, back to your initial questions....

Currently I'm on 4.3 mk2 , rooted with modem of mf3 flashed , do I have to odin back to factory stock before I upgrade to 4.4.2 NC1 with the process in post number 2?

If you are already running kitkat ROMs, then you just boot into safestrap and flash the stock NC1 ROM.

If you are starting with a 4.3 ROM, then you can either Odin to MK2 stock, root, and then install ss 3.72 OR Uninstall ss v3.71 recovery, then uninstall the app, reboot, and then install v3.72 app and then the recovery. Then continue with the "First time installing a 4.4.2 ROM" from post 2.

Also after the upgrade if I want to go back to 4.3 MK2 do I have to do anything thing before I odin all in one Mk2 .tar file? Thanks in advance

Nope. Just odin away.

Hyperdrive 17.1 ROM, AT&T Phone, T-Mobile Carrier

This is my first post, so I cannot post it in the developer thread, and hope I can get some help here.

I have an AT&T Galaxy S4, with Hyperdrive RSL 17.1 installed, and T-Mobile is my carrier.

The developer OP says, in the Aroma install, you can choose the carrier: Verizon, AT&T, or T-Mobile. But when the choice came up as the first item in the Aroma install, it offered only the first two; Verizon or AT&T. So I chose AT&T, and then set up the APN for T-Mobile LTE after the ROM install was completed.

But when setting up the APN entries, I noticed that there already existed a greyed out entry for Verizon. I was able to add a new APN, and LTE works just fine. Then, when I check the phone model in About Phone, it shows SCH-i545, instead of SGH-i337. I really want it to not show as the Verizon model.

Today, in the Hyperdrive developer thread, post #27245 announced an informal compatibility pack for T-Mobile, which I quickly downloaded and flashed, hoping that it would correct the model number to the T-Mobile device. It did not, and in addition changed the entries in Connections/More Networks/Mobile Networks to something I don't understand; the new entries (System Select, CDMA Subscription, Dial-up Networking, and no entry for APN) seem to be decidedly related to CDMA. However, T-Mobile LTE still works just fine.

If someone can enlighten me on any of this, it will be greatly appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Surge1223:
So the problem is....?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] nwaldhart:
