It seems I got lucky.

I contacted a few service provides either by phone or on their website until I found a record of the phones IMEI. Luckily it turned up on a provides website that supplies unlock codes.

I applied the code and it worked although I am pretty sure the message displayed after entering the code said something about unlock unsuccessful. I did a factory reset and it still seems OK.

Hopefully it remains unlocked now.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Here are the ODIN files if y'all want to directly flash your AT&T Galaxy S4 Active to 4.3 (I537UCUBML2). I soft bricked my phone trying to restore it using oneclick. So after hours of digging online, I found these files and they worked perfectly.

Use at your own risk.

Instructions:

BACK UP YOUR FILES FIRST. THIS WILL ERASE EVERYTHING AND YOU WILL LOSE ROOT!!!!!

1. Download files from the links in the attached text file.

2. Download ODIN. I used 3.04.

3. Put phone in download mode by holding vol. down + home + power and then hit volume up to continue

4. Select the appropriate files to flash (look at the attached s4a_odin.jpg file)

5. Hit start and wait. The first reboot will take a while.

Check the text file for the link. I537UCUBML2 (includes all files).7z contains everything you need except for ODIN. The individual files are also available in that folder just in case you need a specific one.

New links are up as of 01/27/14!

[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
This is super helpful. Any chance you can find the MF3 files as well? We're currently stuck with pre-release MF1 and no way to upgrade. If we could get MF2 or 3, it'd be really helpful for those of us who don't want to go to 4.3 just yet. By the way, where were you able to find ML2, I've been looking for it for awhile now.

EDIT: Also try using http://www.androidfilehost.com/, they allow large files.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] arlenesboyfriend:
is there a root for this ?
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] FiWi:
I looked for the MF3 files but it looks like we're out of luck. I found these on samsung-file.com
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
Just a heads up, you might to upload that Dropbox file somewhere else, it's generating too much traffic and cannot be accessed anymore. Also here's the link to the original files (http://www.samsung-file.com/index.php?dir=/Model_I/I537_%28SGH-I537%29).

[Galaxy S 4 Active General] tmease1:

I wonder if that would provide an upgrade path for some people that were stuck on MF1.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] thelegendary4801:
I believe that's for the Mexican version. I'm not 100% positive, though.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] FiWi:
New links are up! Check the original post for details. I hope SkyDrive doesn't have low bandwidth limits like Dropbox.

I537UBUAMG2 is the Mexican firmware. Don't quote me on this, but I remember reading somewhere that flashing this will not work.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] xAjCx:
Send me the file. I'll upload to afh. I have dev account there
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] too.many.imails@gmail.com:
FiWi was just downloading the files individually like you had setup first with the new skydrive links but the AP .001 and .002 error out and dont complete download and fail decompressing using 7zip... was just about to try third time thinking it was me, the computer, or skydrive, but you just changed the link again and put them all into one folder. just letting you know... but thanks again man. awesome!!
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] FiWi:
I'm sorry, I'm just trying to consolidate everything into one file! It's there now and I promise I won't mess with it again LOL. Sorry about that man!

[Galaxy S 4 Active General] arabid:
Someone know if this is for the mexican version telcel?

Because that would like to know if this can update my phone is mexican version telcel or that need to be able to update you
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
Can you post the MD5 for the file in the OP so we can be sure our downloads aren't corrupted?
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] too.many.imails@gmail.com:
He made a .7z file containing all four files needed to update. Download, unzip, then open up odin. Make sure you out phone into download mode. All of this stated in op. The individual ap files are corrupt. Download the .7z file. I can confirm the download it's fine and installs perfectly.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] too.many.imails@gmail.com:
:cool:
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
Right, I understand that you were able to download and install the file properly, but I don't have a reliable internet connection, so sometimes something will finish downloading and I will only realize later that it was corrupted on my end. If somebody would post the MD5 I could check that before I copy the file and know whether or not the download is corrupted. You'd be surprised how many people here on XDA have trouble installing things on their phone only to find out that their download was corrupted and they need to download the file again.

Can anyone confirm that the ML2 upgrade is only possible from MF3, or has anyone been successful directly using this ML2 Odin image on MF1 or MF2?

Thanks, I'm outside of thr US on MF2 and no access to a Best Buy for a flash to MF3. Though, I still won't bother with an update until ML2 is rooted.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
This Odin package contains everything and is not just an update. Be aware that if you flash this you will no longer have root, no root exploit has been found, and there's no way to downgrade to any other firmware. Once you're on ML2 you're sick with it. I personally would wait until it at least has root because I don't really see any benefits over 4.2.2.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Keystone:
Excellent, thanks to all those keeping possibilities for this locked down handset remaining open to upgrades outside of AT&Ts hand holding.

.... Next a 4.3 root, the 4.4 release, and of course an unlocked bootloader... ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] pahick:
This worked out so great for me. Thought id be stuck on MF1 forever! Personally, my phone seems so much more responsive now than on MF1. Thanks guys!

Thanks!!!
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] tet1:
this morning I reflash my s4 active in the best buy they could not fix my WiFi I still have issue with WiFi same thing and they couldn't back my phone to MF3
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] :
Your wifi issues do not sound like it is the firmware, it sounds like it is the phone itself. If you have a warranty on the phone you need to use it and get it fixed or get a replacement phone. I don't think anyone here will have a fix for you.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] tet1:
i was in MF1 my WiFi was working perfect after I flashed ML2 I got issued
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] :
Since you are on ML2 you are stuck on ML2. If you haven't done this yet, do a factory reset. If that doesn't work then you need to do a warranty replacement, use a warranty of some kind or send the phone out to get fixed. You do not have too many options. We do not have any devs here for the I537 and there are not a lot of us here with a lot of knowledge about this phone. I don't think anyone here can help with your wifi issues. Im not trying to be a ass I'm just stating the truth.

Any chance you could download and torrent the s4a i9295 files?

http://www.samsung-file.com/index.php?dir=/Model_I/I9295/I9295_Firmware/I9295_Android_4.2.2/I9295XXUBML3_I9295MTLBNA1_I9295XXUBML3

nvm, ml3 is still 4.2.2 for intl...
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
Here's a random question, since the bootloader for the i537 (ML2) has been posted and the link to the i9295 (ML3) bootloader is posted above, is there any way to fake the signature in the ML3 file so it will flash on the i537? If this is possible it seems like we could have an unlocked bootloader.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
For somebody that's already on ML2, has anybody tried flashing the ML2 bootloader for the i9295 from Samsung-file.com? I'm guessing it's going to fail, but it would be interesting to see if it can be flashed. I'm also wondering if it's locked as well or if it's unlocked like the rest of the i9295 bootloaders. If it can be flashed and is unlocked, then this would be amazing.

---------- Post added at 10:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:35 AM ----------

For future reference you can download firmware from sammobile.com as well. They host a lot more firmware for the i9295 than samsung-file does. If you need a login you can always find on at bugmenot.com
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] ELPABLO07:
Awesome info.

I'm wondering if could I use this method to get stock 4.3 rom from stock 4.2 MF3 rom (rooted). I don't mind lose root, actually I want to leave my phone as out of the box. Everything original, no root, no mods.

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
That's exactly what this package will do. If you ever want to flash anything else, make sure you DO NOT flash the ML2 bootloader.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] ELPABLO07:
Thank you so much for you response!

What about the OTA upcomming updates. I will be able to get them even though I do not flash the ML2 Bootloader? What will you recommend to do? As I said I want my phone back as stock and able to get OTA updates without issues.

THANKS!
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
I don't know whether or not you can get OTA updates if you don't flash the ML2 bootloader. If you don't get updates, you can always flash the bootloader later. I don't see any harm in waiting and see what happens. Worst case scenario you have to wipe your phone and flash the entire package, so not a big deal.

Regardless somebody on XDA will eventually post the update so you can flash it just like ML2. My recommendation is to NOT flash the ML2 bootloader, and if it becomes an issue in the future you can always fix it pretty easily.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] ELPABLO07:
Actually it is pretty logical but you know my friend, kind of newbie with Samsung phones, I do love my phone and as everyone else I will not like to brick it.

Thank you so much, for real! I will flash it today and I will let you know how is it doing. :D
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] ELPABLO07:
Ok my friend i just flashed everything and now I do have 4.3 ML2 working perfect (so far so good). I just have one "issue". The boot screen at the beginning still the same "Samsung Custom" with the padlock. :S I would like to have the original one back on. I understand that maybe "Triangle Away" could fix that but I do not want to root my device. By the other hand... If it is flashed already to stock, why does the phone shows that custom screen? :(

Thank you.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
I'm guessing it's because you didn't flash the bootloader. I've heard of that happening before and sometimes it just goes away on it's own. If that is the only thing that is bugging you then I would wait a few days (4-5 reboots) and see if it corrects itself.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] bitvoy:
Thanks!

Your instructions were great and I was able to access the files with no trouble. I also soft-bricked my phone trying to use the Oneclick to revert to 4.2.

Thanks for the help!
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] ELPABLO07:
Actually I did it. I've flashed the BL as well. Weird isn't it? Does that condition change the reason why the custom screen appears? :S
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
I don't think anybody can say for certain why it happens our what exactly causes it. It'll probably go away after awhile, but I have no idea why. Sorry I can't be more helpful.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] ELPABLO07:
No way my friend. Please do not say sorry because you helped me a lot. I hope it fix by it self, you know, sometimes Android came up with rare stuffs like that one.

Thank YOU. For real. I will let you know if it goes away. :cool:

any idea if I can flash this to try to fix this?
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
You can but it will completely wipe the phone.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] ledocbio:
any other way to fix it? I already asked in troubleshooting forum...

it was fine until one day it rebooted, and became immune to whatever pin i entered
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
Do you have USB debugging enabled? If so and your phone is not encrypted, you should be able to bypass the lock screen. Do a little searching on Google and you should be able to find the commands you are looking for.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] ledocbio:
it is encrypted

If you can't enter the pin then there's nothing you can do other than wipe the phone and start from scratch.

Is it possible to flash ML2 official kernel over the 4.3 leaked Mi2?
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] Devo7v:
Give it a shot, the worst thing you would have to do is flash the mi2 kernel again. I would imagine you would have similar problems that arise when flashing the mi2 kernel on top of ML2 when rooting, but you never know.

If I may, why don't you just flash the ML2 ROM, it is exactly like mi2 but without all the bugs?
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] yankeesfan714:
[MENTION=3047491]Devo7v[/MENTION] Because it appears you can create a ROM slot while on leaked mi2 but not official ML2.

Devo7v is right, I had a custom w/padlock, then after a few reboots the regular Samsung Galaxy boot screen came on. But unlike this thread I did Sunderwear's method to root the original Official Stock 4.3. I didn't flash the locked 4.3 bootloader, because I already had it!!

I started with this:

SGH-I537, Stock Official Android 4.3, 1. Baseband I537UCUBML2, 2. Kernel 3.4.0-2244695, 3. Build JSS15J.I537UCUBML2, 4. SE for Android status Enforcing SEPF_SAMSUNG-SGH-I537_4.3_0016, 5. Secure boot status Type: Samsung

After Sunderwear's method only two things changed and I now have this:

SGH-I537, Rooted Android 4.3, 1. Baseband I537UCUBML2, 2. Kernel version 3.4.0-1643958, 3. Build JSS15J.I537UCUBML2, 4. SE for Android status Enforcing SEPF_SAMSUNG-SGH-I537_4.3_0002, 5. Secure boot status Type: Samsung.

I'd like to redo Sunderwear's method because I'm having a bothersome problem on my S4A SGH-I537. see:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2690133&page=25

1. Still have that pesky always changing list of programs constantly running from the top right corner. It is there on any running app or screen. Here is a picture and a link to download a short 5.57Mb mp4 video of my changing phone screen.

https://mega.co.nz/#!A5FgQCBZ!G9FgHB...ThX5wKwZY7cyzM

I do have a question specifically for this thread. I' like to use Odin like it says in this OP, to go back to Stock Official Android and then redo Sunderwear's method to see if my bothersome problem clears up. My question pertains to flashing all or just some of the modules. Sunderwear's method, at least the Odin part dealt with opening Odin twice, each time flashing the selection only in the PDA (or AP with Odin 3.09) slot.

The question specifically for this thread is what module(s) to flash. My guess is I would not have to flash BL_I537UCUBML2_2244695_REV06_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 becausce that is the locked bootloader? Do I flash the other three files (the AP, CP, and CSC files)? Do I flash one at a time or all together?

What, if any, is the one to one correspondence with the four flashable Odin files (AP, BL, CP, and CSC) and the four files described as 1. Baseband, 2. Kernel, 3. Build, and 4. SE for Android status?

Or maybe 5. Secure boot status Type: Samsung.

I want to thank the devs for giving us AT&T SGH-I537 owners the ability to have the Official 4.3 from this thread, and a root for it on Sunderwear's 4.3 OTA ML2 Root Method! With the ability to upgrade to a future OTA upgrade (maybe android 4.5?) by following the instructions here at S4A 4.3 ODIN Files I537UCUBML2.

We get to have our root and eat it too, er have our cake and eat it too.:D
