To ROOT 4.4.4 ("Rooting doesn't trip Knox. Flashing a custom recovery or kernel will put the counter at 0x1. ... but who cares"--The Sickness)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

1) Download CF-Auto-Root for Galaxy S4 M919 and extract the Zip file: CF-Auto-Root-jfltetmo-jfltetmo-sghm919.zip (I provided it in the folder, and I have also extracted the file you need)

2) Download Odin 3.09 and extract the Zip file: Odin3_V3.09.Zip (I provided odin 3.10)

5) Now connect your Galaxy S4 M919 to your computer via USB cable

6) In Odin3 screen, you should see a COM Port number like “0:[COM7]” at ID:COM section and “Added!” text at the message box. This means your device has been detected by Odin3.

7) Make sure that, only the “Auto Reboot” and “F. Reset Time” options are checked.

8) Now, click on the AP (PDA in older Odin) button and select the CF-Auto-Root-jfltetmo-jfltetmo-sghm919.tar.md5 file (I provided in the folder).

9) Finally, click on the Start button to begin the rooting process, wait few moments.

10) Once completed, you would see “PASS!” message in ID:COM port having green background

If you just want the Modem itself (The modem is non LTE. For LTE you need to flash the entire firmware)

POST #6623

"

Extract the modem (the file is called 4.4.4+modem, i have provided it) from the rar file. (The file inside is labeled modem.bin) Make sure to put it in the phone slot in Odin. (open oden 3.10 and check CP)

Put your phone into Download Mode. Flash the modem.

***DO NOT let your phone reboot. Pull the battery just as soon as Odin says "removed".....

Put your battery back in....go DIRECTLY to Download Mode again....

Flash the modem. Reboot....

Profit....
