Hi,
I am new to rooting the Galaxy S4,but found that this post works for my baseband version I9505 XXUAMDE. Although, this says "Everyone playing with this right now knows the drill..." but I don't. Where can I find more detailed explanation on how to root with this method?
Also, I have a branded, locked ROM from stock. Is it doable to extract this ROM and later flash again it to avoid any warranty issues?
In advance, thank you very much.

Thank you, but I can't seem to find my version in the download list. Should I just download the unmodified stock package mentioned in that thread
PDA: XXUAME2

and flash it? What is the difference between my UAMDE and this UAME2?

Hi,
I would suggest the unmodified stock package..
The difference, that, you should ask in the thread.
Sent telepathically from my S4
Letter I sent to Samsung - of course not helped me:
Hello,
Yesterday was the worst day for me.
i purchased a Samsung galaxy S4 !9505 from i private store.
when i loaded the device for the first time, i got a push update to MH8 (with the knox)
i didn't know whats ahead of me...
yesterday i tried to upgrade the version to a rooted one.
and suddenly, the wifi and the sound in the device stopped working, plus i had problems with incoming/outgoing calls.
finally, i could solve the problem with a modded version of MH8 Pre-rooted, truthfully i don't care about the root anyway.
i just wanted to check what is what, because i'm new to this whole thing.
but now, every time i boot my device, i'm afraid something will happen to it.
besides that, i understand that i can't upgrade any future version anymore, which means for me that my device is half dead already.
i'm asking you, with kind regards, help me restore my phone to its original form, so i could enjoy your updates, and google's as well
my phone is in "knox warrany void: 0x1" state as for now.

There has been a solution to the problem?
Or I got stuck and I can't upgrade?
I'm from Israel, so if you need to flash a modem or something, just so you know
Sorry my english!
Thank you!
somebody please?
Hello,
There are serveral threads about this point, please read around...
You can upgrade to new roms with the ODIN/flashable roms available, or you can set the device status to "official" to receive OTA updates.
The only thing you can't change is the knox 0x01 which is suspected to be an eFuse and therefore non-reversible (nothing 100% confirmed so far)
for questions on how to flash each thing (ODIN packages recovery flashable zips and so on) refer to the specific thread
good luck

If I as usual I upgrade to version 4.3 via Odin official from sammobile (when it is released), the wifi and sound work properly?
And how do I set the device status to "official" to receive OTA updates on my current version?
Thank you!
please?

Hi mate - As it is for know your KNOX warrenty is void....What this means is you will not be able to use the KNOX software/locker/container (whatever you wanna call it).........for the moment this is indeffinate until one of the brilliant minds in xda figures out a way to re-set it (not gonna be easy or anytime soon).....However, your device is not lost.....all you need to do if flash any stock firmware that has the new KNOX bootloader via odin. You can find stock firmware ( you just need to look for it )...Sammobile would be a good place to start maybe? Once you have loaded the firmware you should be able to recieve OTA updates but WILL NOT be able to use KNOX stuff.
Hope this clears some stuff up for you!
EDIT - Even if you have issues via OTA you can always flash the latest firmware via odin!

Yes you can install custom roms - but when you have a custom ROM then you are very unlikely to get OTA updates....which is why odin is a great tool!
I suggest you do ALOT more reading up on this mate.....people will only help so much....This is why xda is what it is....a place for people to learn and READ READ READ

I love this forum! I just do not seem much
Before I flash the MH8 Pre-rooted, i flash customs rom (almost everyone), and all was sound and Wifi, know why?
That's why I'm asking and I'm not sure.
For example, I flash the rom costum MH8, and worked (problems Sound-WIFI), and Pre-Rooted worked, why is that?
Thank you!

Could have been kernel related....I am not entirely sure....but this is wavering from your initial opening post - Knox Problem - I Can't upgrade rom - which has been answered.......I would suggest sticking to what you know works and as I said READ ALOT because you are not the only person who has had wifi and sound issues:good:......I believe your initial issue has been answered as much as it can now. Good luck in you search for answers:fingers-crossed:
Last one from me....have you also tried to flash a new modem to fix wifi???? Try looking HERE also!
Rom and LTE modem should be the same build number. GSM modem is region dependent and can be anything you like.

One bit of advice... please work on your English sentence structure (yes it is very bad )
It is an annoying challenge to understand you without repeatedly rereading what your wrote.
Now unto more important things:
1. Please fix your initial problem by returning to stock before you ask more questions.
2. Let us know if everything is working on stock and your device is back to stock form and function.
3. Read the howto documents on this site before you proceed to ask any further questions related to rooting or rom flashing.

Yes you can do it. You will have to install TWRP and then head over to the ATT development forum and find a rom to try. I can tell you though that I've flashed just about every rom in that forum and each one has one thing or more that made me decide to just go back to stock.

Understood my friend. If you head on over to http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/development-att
you will find a few stock based roms that will work for the D800. I am currently running the one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2483043

I Own a s4 gti-9500 and i want to find the stock kernel so i flash it via odin..is there any link avaliable for that?Thanks in advance!
No. Not as of now. I have a kernel that is repacked by Al_Iraqi. I dont know if it us stock or not.
Ask @AL_IRAQI. He can help you more on this
Plus dont make "hurry" a reason for repost. And also check the help guide's first page.

Hello ROMs geeks,
Can I unroot my device N9005 while it have DarkLordN5.RC2.1.SamsungViet.vn ROM?
I don't know if that is applicable or not?
If Not?
In this case I guess I have to go back to the Stock ROM (I'm supposing so), in this case where can I have Stock ROM taking in your consideration that SamMobile.com removed all the links from the internet because SamMobile.com selling it! so I will be gratfule if someone share it with me please (that in case if unrooting can not work with the custom rom which I mentioned above)
Thank you in advance
MS.
Yes depending upon method to root used read methods instructions to unroot .
Plenty of other sources of firmware and Samm do not as you say sell it .

use unSU by osm0sis and see if it do the trick
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63615067
if it doesnt, use uninstall option on what root method you use
if it still doesnt work, flash another kernel(should be compatible with the rom youre currently using), or just install another rom(backup important stuff first) without root or go back to stock

You can download the firmware on "Samsung Firmware database" https://samdb.org/
and flash with Odin
Create an account, is better
