So I am rooted running twrp, and want to flash task650 rom. But I am getting a failure when I try. I also went to cwm and get same thing, status 7. This sucks because I love his rom. From what I understand, he uses a recovery with auto loki, so removed loki from his title. Since I have an unlocked bootloader, and he uses a auto loki recovery. Shouldn't I be able to flash his rom just like with the s3?

I didn't use that method, I used auto root from chainfire then installed twrp from goo, rebooted into recovery and full system wipe and tried flashing as usual. No go. I then flashed cm jfltecan and no problem... So Idk. As far as I know the root method shouldn't make a difference. I am also using latest twrp. I also tried the cwm touch recovery... Stumped!

I meant use it to just load a recovery. Status 7 means change the recovery. That tool is only for the I337M

Well I figured since I just rooted today and installed latest recoveries, np. I am reaching the end of my knowledge on recoveries. Task requires you to use shabby penguins auto loki cwm based recovery.... So problem must be Based on the rom itself maybe

It only requires that recovery for AT&T phones. Install the Canadian recovery and try again.

I guess I will have to go and modify the zip file and remove the assert prop to get it to work, looks like the only way

Your 100% correct...just gotta change the assert in the updater-script (or remove the assert all together)...its put their by default to prevent flashing a different device roms (like HTC one on sgs4) but obviously in our case we don't need to worry about compatibility except for the kernel
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2
Well if any one finds this thread, it works. I just edited the zip file and deleted assert in script and it flashed NP. But stupidly I used goo to install twrp after I flashed and it automatically installed the loki version. I had to odin the Canadian tar file back to get my recovery working, so any canadians who do what I did, do not update your recovery through rom manager or goo or else it will install the lokified version.

Thanks for that! Now I am not completely up to speed on kernels, I know what they do in a vague way, but will be educating myself in the coming weeks, but shouldn't att kernels work for Canadian devices? If they don't always, what she I be on the lookout for? I will be doing some research on them as I have a chance... Hard right now as I have a 2 year old!

I am having problems with TWRP when I try to install stock roms
So I am thinking about going to CWM( a auto loki version) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2291956&highlight=cwm
Anyone succesfully flashing roms using CWM?
I've been using it and it works for me , although twrp did too.
Had major issues with twrp..like the UI but it let me down big time when I needed to restore. Had to Odin back to stock. No issues with CWM

I use ouhds auto Loki recovery by shabbypenguin
Sent from my WANAM'ED AT&T S4
wasn't 2.5.0.3 the only troublesome twrp--"2.5.0.2" works fine???
done some reading on the other cwm--not shabby's--it is linked in several places, requiring a lot of reading. But, came away with the impression it is still not fully auto "lokified" for us. May have come to the "wrong" conclusion though. It was late at night when reading threads. Would have to re-read everything--
OUDHS is currently the only CWM with the "auto-loki" feature. PhilZ touch cwm (AT&T version) has been lokied to allow for install, but it does not "auto-loki". The Loki-Doki script needs to be used if the kernel / ROM being flashed through it hasn't already been lokied.
Alright ive kinda hit a wall im not sure what i can do i can't seem to get my s4 to flash to any custom roms. just picked it up it came with the latest MF9, ive followed the instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2257101 to get root access and to install twrp. i can get it all to install just fine and have verified that i have root access. but once i flash a custom rom ie. CM 10.1 or even Slim mod either through goomanager it will say it installs successfully but once it reboots the new rom splash screen shows up and just sits there forever spinning and it never goes any further.
ive even restored my device to factory and unrooted the device and im still unable to get any roms to load up. am i missing anything that someone might be able to point out
heres the steps ive tried or gone thru
1. CF-autoroot via odin
2. install Twrp or CWM either thru odin or their manager aps
3. copy rom and gapps to sd card
4. boot to recovery and try to install
5. get stuck at splash screen!!!!
You probably need to install a compatible kernel. If the Rom doesn't include one that's the problem.

Hi, I tried to flash twrp recovery with some help from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670 but it keeps saying fail.. I tried both options.
if rooted freegee is easier from app store, it gets proper automagically.
If trying to flash via cwm, get the recovery flashable zip from the thread and not the img. Doubt thats the case

"Keeps saying it failed" What failed, in what part? Also currently there's no way to unlock the bootloader, but use loki bypass instead, basically when you have recovery installed, you don't have to worry much about bootloader or loki.

I have a pre_MF3 phone but my gf has this device with NC1 Bl, I was able to use geohot's root method to acquire root access. I have supersu installed but can't update binaries. I tried using goo.im to install a recovery but that seems to have failed (it says it installed successful). Each to I try to reboot recovery it boots into DL mode and will continue doing that until I pull battery and force a it into the "booting a custom software" screen to which then I can push vol down and restart it normal but cannot in anyway get it into recovery mode. I'm assuming this may have to deal with it being a "loki'd" recovery? Does this seem like a plausible issue? If it is what's the chances of say, since we can install I9505 roms that we could install the un- "loki'd" I9505 custom recoveries? Also, this isn't packaged with a recovery so, I'm assuming the best method of installing a recovery may be odin? Any feedback would be nice, Thanks in advance

Bootloader is locked. You can't have recovery besides Safestrap on any version past MDL 4.2.2. You'll have to reflash it with ODIN to fix the recovery issue and use Safestrap to flash ROMs.

Root is not the same as a bootloader unlock. Older phones only needed root, now that we have complicated locked bootloaders with checks we need more than just root to install a custom recovery and ROMs.
