I want to try to i9505 GE kernel but am not sure either if that's possible. Does anyone know the answer? Can you run i9505 kernels on i337m? What about radios?

Try it, all it will do is put you in a boot loop, or get stuck at the samsung logo, BUT..
before you do, make sure you have YOUR working kernel handy in case it does not work. Remember, all you have to do is get into recovery and flash the known GOOD kernel and you are back in business.
kernels have nothing to do with modems/radio. meaning it will not change your baseband.
Good luck, and let me know if it works for you guys

Ktoonez T-Mobile kernel will work on the Canadian variant. I am using it right now

I´m running Adam Kernel(9505) on my i337m (Telcel-Mexico) for over a month, no problem so far.

This is the thread you want for kt"s kernels for US/Canadian phones.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292341
as stated use tmo kernels from OP link for Canadian phones
also for GE roms you need TouchWiz kernel not aosp
There are a couple kernels like Adams and Audism that will work, but you will need loki-doki for 1337 models

I am running ktoonsez kernel with stock rooted i337m with no issues. Smooth and a lot of configuration.
My i337m is from Telcel Mexico
No boot loop

4G not working, urgent

I flashed an international firmware on a Sprint S4, not knowing that it breaks root and custom recovery. I also lost my 4G. I can fix everything except the 4G. No idea how to begin, any idea?

Well you can begin by going to Sammobile and download the carrier's stock firmware. Flash it via odin. Stay on stock until you figure out how to fix 4G on custom roms.
Good luck, Im sure you'd be able fix it by flashing stock rom

Have you tried fishing the Sprint modem?

Sprint Modem? Can you go a bit more in detail please?

Indie offers an "EnableLTE.zip in the i9505 Omega Thread
This maybe fix the problem, OR AT WORST BRICK YOUR DEVICE
Honestly i have no idea if this works, so be careful.
Indie or another skilled person should know of this fix the LTE bug on your Sprint S4.

The modem is part of any full firmware and is usually different for each provider, region etc.
I believe the US lte frequencies are different to most of the other countries so if you don't have the correct modem your phone may be looking for the wrong frequency.
Try this link: http://www.rwilco12.com/downloads.php?dir=Files/Devices/Samsung Galaxy S4 (SPH-L720)/Modems
Flash the .tar file in odin in the phone section.
Edit: just remembered when the first ipad to have lte was released in Australia, Apple and resellers got into big trouble for marketing it as lte/4g. This was because although it was lte it didn't actually work with Australian lte frequencies. So as I mentioned above you will need a US modem. That's my best bet to get it going again.

Flashed it successfully, yet no 4g. Could it be that I need to flash a different firmware?

Maybe check that lte is selected in network settings and you have your apn set correctly.

I do agree seeing as AT&T has a locked bootloader. Most S4's should fall under the 9505 model. AT&T roms will work... just need to flash an international/tmobile kernel

Wrong. Everyone one I asked like task650 and others with att Roms say no don't use it. Every other guys with TM or 9505 say yes I can use there's. So its kinda conflicting info in the whole att forum. I know exactly what your trying to say.
Is just those att and other locked boot loader should have been in one forum on there own. Not that any body flashes stock att Roms and trips the efuse because they maybe thought its cool to use Verizon or att rom.

Wrong I ran them and tested them working in my guide...oh well ....you are talking about a i337m right? I had people with that device..and they had them working. Deal is...if you want to run a certain rom bad enough...as I did...you will get them to run. The only ones that dont work would be i9500....you are listening to doubters sir...try it yourself...

Now they have closed our i337m forum for official firmware! They are definitely different from i337

I am a Canadian, and I have run international, Tmobile and att roms on my device. In fact my daily driver is att. The loki part only concerns the kernel, do some reading, like I did and you will figure out how to get a lokified rom to flash, then flash a TMO or 9505 rom kernel and BAM! You are golden.

You are correct sir, these roms will work on a i337m device.

I use an i337m. It was a bit confusing at first differentiating the ATT/CAN roms, but as long as the DEVs document their posts properly, shouldn't be an ongoing issue.

the reason we cant run tasks rom is because it is auto loki'd. There are ways around that if course..his tmo rom can also be made to work with the i337m as well.
Ive run lots of international rom and at&t based roms....running international right now...no biggie

To be on this forum and understand your phone you got to do some reading. This question has been made hundred of times. When i join this forum they would be really nasty for asking the same question over and over.
I will give you an answer anyway.
Since you have one of the latest builds. AT&T has locked the bootloader which makes very hard the process of rooting and installing custom roms. In other words you can only flash TW roms.

Yes i knew that nb1, mk2, and mf3, all have lock bootloaders which mean i can only flash tw based roms. I was asking if the others like nc8 nc9 build numbers are like variants of nb1 or something like that since they are listed under 4.4.2 tw based roms. now im thinking that those are for people who had what ever build came before mf3 that can use loki to flash the latest roms.lease tell me if im wrong.

You can flash any build that is the same android version. The only thing that people with Loki get are AOSP ROMs. Other bases like nc9 and others are still Touchwiz.

[Q] Cyanogenmod installer confirmed working with AT&T GS4 SGH-I337?

The question is will my device work with the jflteusc version of the CyanogenMod Installer? I have a AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-I337. I heard of the new CyanogenMod installer and looked at the supported devices. I saw a jflteusc (US Cellular). I don't knoiw if it will work with my AT&T S4. I don't want to **** up my phone. I'm currently on 4.4.2 NB1 stock rooted. The website I am referencing is http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/CyanogenMod_Installer Any help would be great!

Did you use safestrap and deadly venom kitmat magic tool in install 4.4.2 stock rooted? If so, you cannot get CM to work.

Yes I did. If I upgrade to NC1 stock unrooted, would that work?

You have a locked boot loader that prevents from changing the kernel. So, no.

There has to be a reason why only ATT S4 is missing from the list, right?

Yea I downloaded the app and it said device unsupported
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Has anyone ventured to trying the installer in the unsupported mode? Is there a reasoning behind this and safe to try if I'm already rooted and TWRP? I thought there already was an ATT compatible build.

If your bootloader/firmware were MDB or MDL you could try it. Above that there is no exploit for the bootloader out yet so you can not install the CM.

Yes I'm on the same adventure with my sgh-i337. I'm going back and forth between MK2 and NB1 ROMs but cannot get MDL or MDB flashed at all. I got them from samfirmware and Odin fails. I tried kies and it says firmware available is MDL ... Well great, but then it says device not recognized!
I'm really torn between why is it we can get to MDL to flash CM?
Instructions:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_jflteatt
Edit: once updated to MK2 there is no going back. Bootloders are locked and that is the end of the story. No more CM or CWM recovery or Loki ... Just safestrap and custom ROMs.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using XDA Free mobile app

Just as a final reference for all: CM installer is not for the I337.
On MF3 and above, we have no exploit for ROMs and Cyanogenmod is not compatible with our stock kernel.
Even on MDB/MDL it won't work because you need Loki which the installer doesn't take care of AFAIK (if it were to even let you open it).
