Steps to Root Galaxy S4 I9500 Running on Android 4.4.2 KitKat Official Firmware

Step 1: Extract Odin 3.07 .zip file.

Step 2: Turn off the Galaxy S4 and boot it into Download Mode by pressing and holding Volume Down, Home and Power buttons together. Once you see the Galaxy S4 Logo, release the Power button and continue holding the other two buttons. Click Volume Up to continue into Download Mode.

Step 3: Launch Odin on computer as an Administrator.

Step 4: Connect the Galaxy S4 to computer with USB cable while in Download Mode. Wait until Odin detects the device and then the ID: COM box will turn light blue with the COM port number. Furthermore, when the device is connected successfully, a message saying "Added!" appears on screen.

Step 5: In Odin, tap PDA button and select CF-Auto-Root-ja3g-ja3gxx-gti9500.tar.md5 file.

Ensure the Re-Partition option is unchecked.

Step 6: After verifying step 5, click Start button in Odin. The installation process should begin.

Step 7: After the root installation completes, your phone will reboot and soon a PASS message with green background appears at the top left-most box in Odin. It is now safe to disconnect the USB cable and remove the phone from computer.

Galaxy S4 I9500 is now rooted successfully on Android 4.4.2 KitKat official firmware. Launch app drawer on the phone and check for SuperSU in the apps list to verify root installation.

Step 8: Launch SuperSU app and update the binaries as normal.

Hello,

I do not In this regard Knowledge,

You Willing Try?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frenix27:
Hi everyone, I have an Htc One (M7) still locked, original, not touched yet.

I want to unlock now, but I now I'll lose warranty, but I'm asking this:

If I unlock, ok I'll lose warranty (Is there any way to not lose?), but can I delete the message in bootloader relocked?

Thanks!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
yes, you can revert to stock firmware through an RUU to claim warranty. U can remove the 'TAMPERED' flag and change 'RELOCKED to LOCKED'.

In short, u can revert to the EXACT same state ur phone came in.

BTW, u need S-OFF to revert ur phone 2 claim warranty
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frenix27:
So now I unlocked my Htc, flashed recovery and I'm using a custom rom/kernel. Obviously I read Unlocked and Tampered...can I change this with Locked staying still with custom rom/kernel?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
You need S-OFF to change back to LOCKED (not RE-LOCKED) and to remove the TAMPERED banner.

I'll recommend you to stay UNLOCKED as long as you will use a custom rom.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frenix27:
Ok thanks.

Other thing: is it possible dual boot like a sense rom and a miui/aosp?

I have same problem.
[General Questions and Answers] Jarmezrocks:
Did anyone get a solution to this issue? I am totally stumped and not sure how to revive this device when there is no obvious solution to the driver fault. People seem to pretend that this issue doesn't exist or that users are doing things incorrect....I am following instructions to a T and still I get the driver dropout issue. This is SOOOO frustrating. It connects and detects, then before I can do anything it disconnects. What freakin drivers work for the MTK6589? I was told that all MTK devices use the same drivers....well I have tried literally 15-20 different driver downloads and NONE of them work! NONE! They ALL have the same issue of connect and then disconnect. Yes I have USB debugging enabled. Yes I have tried battery out and then battery in. I have tried everything and nothing has worked. Please if anyone can help me with drivers that work I would very very very much appreciate.....otherwise this devices is pretty much a brick (I am a long time Android user not a n00b btw).

For reference....the device came to me to be translated to English from Chinese. I did this mostly but made a mistake with one line in the build.prop. Now it won't boot. There is no custom recovery available for this device so I have no other option but to reflash the device.....IF only I could get it to detect for more that 2 freaking seconds I would try with the backup I made before modifying the thing!

MTK 6589 VCOM port disconnecting

Hello,

I have the same problem. I did everything discribed in forums. The driver of MT Preloader Vcom port is installed correctly. I tested with different cables and different OS (XP and Windows 7 32 bit) and differenet computers.... SP Flash Tool says that:

BROM ERROR : S_BROM_DOWNLOAD_DA_FAIL (2004)

[H/W] Fail to download DA to baseband chip's internal SRAM

[HINT]: 1. There's an cable communication problem between FlashTool and BootROM.

2. Target might be shutdown unexpectedly or target lost power supply.

[ACTION]

1. Try again.

2. Proceed H/W checking in download cable and target side com port.

3. Monitor if power-drop occured in target side.

At some reason COM port is constantly disconnecting and connecting without establishing permanent connection with SP Flash Tool. The red bar pops up and shows that message on hitting download button on the Flash Tool.

Any idea?
[General Questions and Answers] niki_help:
MTK 6589 connect/disconnect

Hello,

The connecting and disconnecting is normal for MTK devices in Device Manager. You don't have to panic. All you need is to be very fast when you see in your computer - Device Manager - MTK Preloader - click with right button - properties - driver - update driver - choose from specific location - next - browse for the file and then install the driver from the directory where you have put it. You have to see Windows Message that your driver is not digitally signed and press Continue.

Don't pay attention that MTK is connecting and disconnecting. When you install the driver it must be shown up(and of course disappear in 2 seconds) in LPT ports - MTEK VCOM Port or something like that. You are ready.

If you have installed a bunch of different drivers use the program USBdeview (goolge it)and unistall all MTK Preload drivers you have already installed.

Then you are ready to flash backup files with SP Flash Tool.
[General Questions and Answers] gauravkr:
link?

can you give us the link of the drivers you used? because every driver i have is preloader, not DA.

Mediatek DA VCOM Port disconnects

Hi

I tried below and actually get the phone registered as Mediatek DA VCOM Port but it still disconnects when I connect after hitting download in SP Flash Tool and faile with error (2004)
[General Questions and Answers] greenro:
Error 2004

I am getting BROM ERROR : S_BROM_DOWNLOAD_DA_FAIL (2004). I tried different USB ports, 2.0 and 3.0 and different PCs(I also tried with windows XP and Windows XP drivers). After I press download and connect the phone, SP-FlashTool won't "catch" the MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM Port. It will disconnect and connect every 2 seconds, for 9 seconds, then it will give me that error. I couldn't make that port a MediaTek DA USB VCOM Port.

If anyone has an idea of what can I do to fix this, please tell me.

EDIT: Solved by renaming "checksum.ini" to "checksum.old"

Many thanks for this detailed description! I restored my device back from the dead. It was totally blacked out.

One thing that differs: I didn't see MediaTek DA USB VCOM in my device manager. It was either USB COM or MediaTek Preloader USB. Still I started to connect/disconnect the device and pressing "Download" button in Flash Tool as soon as the Preloader driver appeared. All of a sudden it changed to MediaTek DA USB VCOM and it worked like a charm!

I've tried deleting and reinstalling drivers, also did everything in Jarmezrocks's solution, changed USB ports, and so on but I never get the MediaTek DA USB VCOM driver, I always get the MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM Port driver instead.

Installing da driver

WELL YOU CAN MAKE IT BY :

Turn Off the device

Open Up device manager

double click on PORTS (COM & LPT)

connect the device

IF It's recognized as MTK preloader 65XX under a newly created category ( I can't remember the title of category, but it's in the middle of list) >>> JUMP TO BELOW (SKIP FOLLOWING 4 LINES)

[[[[ IF It's recognized as preloader usb vcom under PORTS (COM & LPT) >> AND SHORTLY WILL DISAPPEAR

before it disappears

immediately right click on it and click uninstall, tick the box, apply , ok ]]]]

NOW AS YOU DISCONNECT & RECONNECT YOUR DEVICE it's recognized as MTK PRELOADER 65XX

anyway the MTK PRELOADER 65XX is also disappeard shortly

before disappearing right click on it, choose update, browse my computer.. , pick from a ... , browse for driver, and select the driver you have, UNTICK show only ..., double click MTK DA VCOM driver (FIRST ONE) APPLY OK.

NOW WHEN YOU DISCONNECT AND RECONNECT YOUR DEVICE it's recognized as DA. under PORTS CATEGORY.

Well, the little **** didn't get detected by the flashing tool for me, it kept disconnecting upon download. It somehow kept the connection open when doing an FW upgrade though, so that's nice. Flashed the stock ROM successfully this way.
[General Questions and Answers] kaesha4:
How did you do that? I'm using YGDP to download FW to my phone. It went well at first, but always disconnected at 98% of the CPB download process. Probably it was caused by the phone that registered as MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM Port in Device Manager, but after I uninstall the driver, update driver using MediaTek DA USB VCOM Port, unplug the phone and plug it in again, it still registered as MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM again.

Try that with battery, if it doesn't run, try with battery.

In SP Flash Tool interface, click Format tab

Once in Format tab, click Start to format the phone

Now go back to Download tab

Load scatter file of the firmware you wish to flash

Click Download and connect phone.
