You can not install it yet
They have it ready so when the method to unlock the bootloader is given out it ready to go

A little searching will also help as they have a thread in the original development section as well
But as stated earlier we can not use it until the bootloader is unlocked for us

Hey guys i just got my s4 yesterday and am wondering what the difference between the 2 firmwares is. Is one better then the other? My phone downloaded an update last nite but I havent installed it yet. Was going to root this afternoon.

MF3 locks the boot loader, so if you want to flash ROMS, don't update. It also has some software tweaks and adds Knox and the ability to easily store apps on SD card. There is a root, but not a boot loader unlock, yet.

Do yourself a favor and search and read through the first page or so of the general and Q&A sub forums. The information you need is there, especially the "pinned" threads in the general section. Read the "software update" thread and the "new root method for MF3" thread also. Good luck.
Will do scott thanks! Im coming from an iphone and forgot how big the android world is! Had an inspire 4g prior to my 4s

Some say it has auto installed
It will auto install. You should root and put a custom Rom on asap. Check your firmware first though, if it's already installed you can brick your phone trying to root the way you would with mdl. If it's mf3 you've got the update and you'll have to use a different method.

I had Knox on MDL, not sure what your talking about.
Mf3 locks the boot loader but fixes bugs and make the camera take sharper pictures. Plus better cell signal.

I got lucky. It tried to auto instal so i yanked the battery and quickly rooted and threw a custom rom on it.

i m searching for half an hour.. y wnt u help by just passing me a link?
You are not searching.
and because by handing ppl links for every single question will not benefit the community overall as members would rather make a new thread to a topic that has been covered numerous times instead of searching and learning.

count them. THREE examples of threads in the Q&A section over the last 4 days covering the same topic of rooting MJA & MK2.

rooting has not effect on MMS and data. Over WiFi try ##72786# in dialer. this will reactivate your phone and reboot twice.

As XDA is not a support site, and the material is already posted...this thread is closed.
When the 4G update for three users becomes available in my area in the UK, will it be a problem receiving this update because my S4 is rooted?
P.s I apologise in advance if this question is in the wrong area of the forum. Tbh honest I'm still fairly new to xda.
Thanks

If u are rooted u cant update ur phone via OTA but yes with Kies :good:
I'm getting quite frustrated with Xda these days it used to be that the moderators would post stickys of [ROOT]. Not anymore I see. I know there is a thread out there detailing how to flash 4.3 then root then re flash stock kitkat. But I've been searching about 30 min now and can't find it again. Will someone help me to find this thread? Or maybe just maybe a moderator could actually be useful and do as they used to and post it as a sticky.

Hello, I've decided to post this after unsuccessfully finding any information about the g935u. Everything I find is about flashing the u firmware to other devices. I would like to start a gathering of people to share links, files, ideas about this phone and it's potential with "more stable rooting methods that don't use Eng and possible bootloader unlock" I haven't been active with xda since note 3 so please excuse my inability to search and post correctly. This phone would be so much better unlocked, maybe we could start a petition or a bounty? Any input is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I'm holding out hope for something better for our phones. Im still on PG9 with Aug 16th security patch 3.18.20-7856276-eng. I remember waiting over a year just for root for my sm-n900a when geohot came in and owned the phone within a few days of trying lol

I'm doing all kinds of searches, but nothing about rooting this model. There are some posts about this model in this thread though:

Yeah, that's the only rom so far and there won't be any until they're able to unlock the bootloader.

Is there a status thread about unlocking the bootloader? Donations thread perhaps?

None at this time but I'm hoping there'll be one soon. Meanwhile, you can subscribe to the Edge thread to keep up with the updates.
