i didn't know if the s4 was like the s3 in that aspect that they are trying to see how many time you have flashed it through odin. but i uninstalled & re installed and get the same error weird?
It does.. Just wasn't sure if you were getting the custom icon on boot or if you just wanted it as a preventative measure

What version of triangle away are you using.. I had 2.90 installed with no problems
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
It works on Canadian S4.
I am surprised people are getting the triangle. i have flashed multiple different recoveries since i got my s4 and multiple roms. i have yet to see the triangle.
I've been doing searches for a while and I haven't been able to figure out why this is going on. I was on Kangabean and just recently started losing service once in a while and had a hard time getting LTE. I upgraded to the latest Kit Kat version of the same rom and updated my baseband a few times using different ones and although it has improved, I'm still in the same boat. What I'm wondering is if this is an issue with the rom or if it is with hardware.
You have to have the 4.3 modem on 4.4 to get rid of the data drops. Also make sure you have your APN settings correct. PTA seems to be the best one for LTE. Google will help with finding that.

I've had the PTA settings forever now. They're still my default. How do I go about getting the 4.3 modem on 4.4? What would I use?
Just look up rock ratt's post. He has all of the 4.3 modems set up as flashable zips. ?

I think he might be saying that because hes on sprint and not used to a sim card. Probably doesn't realize he needs it in to get 4g or to vanquish those pesky pop ups.
Took me a little while to grasp the concept of the sim card being the 4g card. I'm on sprint.
If there is an app in google play to make a lock screen password or pin that I can rely on it?
Because this service is grayed out and dimmed in my 4.4.2 SPH L720 phone.
Since you say your lock screen is greyed I out I take it that you are on unknown forces ROM.

Hello, I know for a fact that there are other "help me! I bricked my note 3" threads out there, but I have concluded that I find myself in quite a specially convoluted situation.
All the following occurred with me coming from a stock 4.3 rooted rom.
My story begins when I attempted to flash Fre3 4.4.2 ROM using TWRP. The rom included the"beastmode" kernel. Well, after flashing I ended up stuck in the bootloader screen with a "Set warranty bit: kernel" error. Being such a huge noob as I am, I googled for a solution to this, and I ended up with a flashable .zip that was supposed to fix such kernel issue, upon inspection of the zip file I found a clean_efs.sh script. Then again, being such a noob I had no Idea what "efs" meant, and against my better judgement, I had flashed it anyway..
Long story short the previous made me end up with a bootloop, which prompted me to restore my nandroid from my stock 4.3 rom... At first It would give me an error regarding the MD5 checksums, it prompted me to disable md5 verification, which WAS disabled, yet the same error persisted..
As a last resort I tried to use ODIN 3.07 with the stock 4.3 release, it was flashed successfully, but as soon as it got to the "Sprint" bootlogo, it would reboot itself into an infinite loop.. Afterwards I tried to do a data/wipe/factory reset form the stock recovery which was done successfully. Afterwards the phone booted past the sprint logo and all i could see was: The status bar with the signal bars with a red cross, a completely black screen, and a dreaded "Process system is not responding" dialog. Tapping on "wait" or "stop" just closed the dialog and the phone rebooted regardless.
I am pretty much stuck at this point... Please I beseech whoever has solved such an issue to help me, I am not really able to afford another note 3, but I can afford to reward anyone that can help me solve this(that desperate I am:fingers-crossed...
And to make matters worse, I am getting the galaxy gear for Xmas....go figure..
P.S. I still have a NANDroid of my beloved 4.3 and it does have an EFS backup, I have no way of knowing if it is corrupted or not... Also I'll attach the "clean_efs" zip so you can tell me how a huge noob I am(not really just for reference)...
Are you on the 4.4 bootloader? It's needed to boot Touchwiz 4.4.
Flash a TW 4.4 ROM via Odin, wipe data and restore EFS.

The last (successful) ROM flash since this mess was literally years ago with my HTC supersonic, so sorry if i sound like a total noob but, can you elaborate? How do i find out what version of boot loader I am on? With flash a TW 4.4 ROM do you mean a recovery? I already odin'd the 4.4.2 stock wonder if the recovery would make a difference? Also since its a stock ROM need i not to be rooted for everything to work properly?
Sorry for the total noobness but i think that's the best way to approach it so not to get anything wrong..

It won't boot at all, i stopped and sought help after i flashed 4.4.2 with Odin since then it just stays at "booting recovery".. The phone WAS rooted on the stock 4.3 but now i posit it is not. It is the SPRINT variant (SM-900P). I made sure to flash the proper ROMs for the carrier but still ran into this mess..

Sounds good! Comforting to know that there ate folks out there willing to lend a hand.. I'll get Odin 3.09. That was also one of my major concerns, Odin. Since there are a whole bunch of contradictory threads that state that version x doesn't play well with my phone and vice versa.. Hope that it works..
Also i find that kies stuff weird, both kies 2 and 3 asked me for a serial number, i just do not know what is the exact version i need, but maybe I'll try again with a clear mind..with such a brick scare i couldn't think straight..

I understand your concern i bricked my vibrant long ago and i bricked another note 2 long ago so i learned when to be scared and when to be relaxed about it if the keys doesnt work now its probably since your phone wont boot normaly so it can't detect it properly thats why we gona use odin and flash the firmware on it and that will get you booted back up so then kies will see the phone and it will boot it to download mode on its own and do the update ,once thats done you can root it install custom recovery and such .

I really do not mind, whichever might render less issues is OK..as long as it can be rooted safely and supports xposed.. But is kies going to fix the efs? How will it do that? I thought imei/data in efs is unique..
It fixed mine i lost my whole efs folder and i went from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 via kies and when i rooted my phone i checked and there it was efs folder with everything in it.Im running 4.4.4 with xposed and blu x 2 theme made for this rom and i have zero issues ( knock on wood) lol
