Go to Settings-> Accounts -> Backup and Reset -> Factory Data Reset -> Erase all

---------- Post added at 11:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 AM ----------

No need to go to recovery mode. Do factory reset through phone settings. I am using this rom. Its very stable and good battery backup on average use. Galaxy S4 is not for gaming. Battery drains quickly in gaming and s4 heats too. I am playing Asphalt 8 on Very Low graphics setting.

[Galaxy S 4 General] Arjoni:
Hello, first i want to say thanks for this leaked rom. I guess this is the official from russia. I have a couple of questions. I have flashed a modem using odin (i am on cm12) and then i flashed another modem via recovery. I didn't get service. i tried a couple of other modems and none of them worked if flashed via recovery. than i flashed via odin and it worked. Does this mean that i am screwed?

Now i want to flash the official rom. If i flash this rom, do i get another modem? Will it work good in Albania (my country)? Also if i want to get back to cm12, can i? What about kit kat?

edit: i have this modem: UBUGNJ1 and it works fine with cm12.

Regarding IMEI:

The IMEI isn't stored in the efs only. There are some other files need to be backuped for 100% safety.

AntaresOne has created a tool for backuping IMEI/EFS. See in I9500 Android Development for his thread.

I recommend it to all :) It takes at least 5 minutes but it safes your device from becoming an expensive media player [emoji14]
[Galaxy S 4 General] SoulSmasher:
Since I will be restoring the 5.01 leak by wiping, why do I need to be on official rom? Wouldn' t updating the modem suffice?

I mean steps like these:

Backup efs and stuff

Update modem to NJ1

Wipe everything (clear to install new rom)

restore 5.01 from recovery

install supersu zip.

Wouldn't these suffice?

Also, can anyone confirm would these steps work with TWRP ?

Thanks in advance,

[Galaxy S 4 General] khantastic:
you need to follow these steps, because you are using 11gb pit and the space is insufficient.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58553350&postcount=47

8gb pit is posted in page 3 of this thread. look for it. :)

you can always try, you don't have to do anything if you are not using 11gb pit. but if you are then you have to go back to NJ1, because the 8gb pit works only with KK roms.

and no the update is made from cwm/philz, it will not work with TWRP

proximity sensor working fine

As I'm on official stock 4.4.2 rom, can I just follow steps in the 1st post ... I mean, I do not have to worry about 8 pit and 11 pit.

Also, any guesses on how long before an official release?

[Galaxy S 4 General] khantastic:
no its not that simple.

you have to flash it using recovery.

if you are talking about modem, odin version is also given in first post

if you are using 8gb pit file (i.e. you never flashed a pit file) then just put the file in recovery and restore.

did you flash 11gb pit file at any point??

then look in first post, you have to go back to kitkat, flash latest NL1 modem, then u can flash this rom
