Need help - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I currently have a Samsung galaxy S4 AT&T model SGH-I337 that is rooted with custom recovery and I have a custom ROM on my device. I am trying to get back to factory settings and install the stock touchwiz ROM that came on my device from out of the box. All the instructions I have found are through Odin however I have a Mac so I cannot run Odin so does anybody else have any other solution they could walk me through. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

[Q] Soft Bricked i337

Hi everybody!
I think I soft bricked my Galaxy S4. I had MF3 firmware, flashed Safestrap and Installed custom ROM. Everything was Okay before I decided to flash another one. I flashed Alpha v10 ROM and it didn't boot.
Right now I'm stuck with Galaxy s4 writing and accessible Download Mode and stock recovery mode.
What should I do now? I know that we don't have MF3 firmware available but is there any possibility to boot this phone?
Thanks in advance
There is a script on here that you can flash with odin to make your phone boot normally its in the android development section for our phone. Try looking for it there. Good luck.
Edit: heres the link to it.

you can't unlock it. If you have MDL firmware you can use an exploit but if you are on MK2 of MF3 its completely locked down

I'm Looking For A Custom Kitkat 4.4.2 Rom For My S4

I am looking for a custom KitKat rom 4.4.2. All the ones I'm finding will not flash successfully. The one I did find was messing up my phone modem (radio) and it was causing dropped calls and EDGE connection problems so I flashed it back to stock. I want a new custom rom without this issue that is rooted with Wifi/tethering.
I have the Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-I337 model with AT&T.
I appreciate any help it I can get with this!

If you take the time to read like most of us have. You will find out that you can't flash custom rooms if you are on kit kat until devs find exploit, which is going to be very hard.

From what he says you could tell he is either on mk2, nb1 or NC1 which the bootloader is lock down and as most of us know we can only flash Tw roms.

I don't get that from his post. He wants to flash a kk custom rom and he seems to be able to flash roms which tells me he has a custom recovery.
Op, can you tell us what firmware version you're on?
