Hi everyone,
I just rooted and installed CWM using one of the guides in the development forum and am ready to try out flashing a rom.
Just to check, is there any limitations of which roms i can flash? Im using a HongKong set with a KJ6 Kernel and baseband.
Thanks

Hi guys. I recently flashed stock jellybean 4.3 on my S4 and am now hoping to re-root and install a new custom rom but would like a little help before I proceed.
I was using omega rom previously on 4.2 and enjoyed it so was hoping to install version 14 on my updated phone.
My problem is that I need to choose between one of the two tar files available dependant on whether I have the old bootloader XXUB or the new bootloader XXUD. Where do I find out which bootloader I have? My baseband version is i9505xxuemj7.
My second question is (sorry noobish!) can I install clockworkmod and then flash this pre-rooted rom or must I root before flashing clockworkmod and then install the rom?
If Im asking in the wrong section or am being a total noob I do apologise. I have only rooted once previously and came from years of 'ahem' apple iphone use
Any help greatly appreciated guys.
Hey guys,
Can you help out with a newbie question.
Im running android 4.4.2 on a rooted I9505 flashed with GPE edition rom. Im currently running I9505XXUEMKF baseband on a I9505 recognised as I9505G. On meteor network in Ireland.
My problem is Id like to get OTA updates, but these fail as I have TWRP installed. As I understand it this can be overcome by reflashing the stock recovery. Is this correct?
So my question then is how to know which stock recovery to flash? & can I do a backup of the current one I have installed in case something goes wrong?
Looking at this thread in development subform. & several are listed.

Hello everyone i recently purchased a LG G2, and then rooted it and flashed the CM 11 rom. After some time of using it, i heard about the cloudy rom and would like to flash it but when i went to the forum i didn't understand how to flash the KK baseband or what that even means? When i opened the thread with all the basebands i didn't know which one to choose, there were multiple basebands with the words d802.So i wondering if anyone might guide me through the process to safely flash the cloudyflex 2.4 rom. I'm using the d802(International) G2. Sorry if the question is noobish.

You'll only need the base band if your coming from a jellybean ROM. Since your not you won't need it. Just follow the instructions in the thread.
I'm trying to learn more about the S5 root world. I am currently running the OTA NHA build, and am rooted using towelroot, and have the latest safestrap installed (also have supersu and busybox). What i am trying to understand is how the custom rom's work now. I just got the S4, and never had my bootloader locked since i rooted/rom'd earlier on and never ran stock, and i was using TWRP so there were no rom slots or the like; you downloaded a rom, wiped your phone, flashed it, done.
This bootloader/kernel/baseband talk is what's confusing me. A question that i've been trying to find the answer for is as such: let's say i have my NHA rooted phone, but there is an NE9 rom on the forum i want to try (extreme syndicate/alliance). Can i just flash that to a rom slot and go, or do i flash the kernel as well? if i flash the kernel, won't that mess with my stock rom, or does that just patch the kernel inside of the rom slot?
I already understand that chronologically, the baseband/build versions are NCG>NE9>NHA>NI2, so understand that rom's baseband is a version behind NHA. Someone please help clarify some of this for me
Hi guys
searched the forums but cannot find the answer.
I have a 935f and its running the latest bootloader and modem from november. i just got this phone and have rooted and installed TWRP, when i am looking at custom roms like superman and renovate, it tells me to "update" my bootloader and modem to octobers version for superman or septembers version for renovate.
obviously i a running a later version than both of these, am i ok to flash the rom without doing anything or do i need to downgrade my bootloader then flash?
if i downgrade will i have to root and install TERP again plase?
thanks in advance for the help
