Hi
I root my shg-i377M with motochoper and installed recovery with goomanager.
I want to install Paranoid Android 3.6, but I'm not sure which rom (jfltecan or jflteATT) is compatible with my device. baseband: i377MUMAMB2
thanks
Do some more reading before you flash anything. If you don't know what the m is for in i337m and the difference between can and att you need to do some more research or you'll end up bricking your phone.

My phone is from Telcel, I have read some Canadian has also M but not sure. I also have read that people can Flash via Odin MDL image to M... too few information
he is right, you need to read alittle more before you jump right in, but this guide has your compatible roms....

I have done a lot of reading about a lot of roms here at xda... I've flashed several roms on my s4 so far in the few months ive owned it.
Currently running scroslers mf3 from 7/15, rooted, with ktoonsez kernel, mdl baseband.
Trying to be sure I dont brick my phone, cuz I like it.
If I want to flash one of the 4.3GE roms in this forum, do I need to flash back to mdl rom before flashing 4.3? For example, kangabean 4.3 rom says to flash from mdl rom with mdl baseband... if not mdl, odin back to mdl, then flash 4.3GE. But other 4.3 roms don't say this.... since I read and re read kangabean about 10 times, im wondering why they say to start from mdl and other roms dont seem to say that?
Any wisdom you have on this would be appreciated...
For the record, running twrp 2.6 and I have loki-doki available and ready to flash as needed.
Thanks for your help.

Any ROM you want to flash should have full instructions on how to flash it on the OP. I'd it does not, message the OP of the ROM to ask that they update their thread. Each ROM can and will have a different process.

Thanks for the reply... I have flashed lots of roms on various devices, but for some reason I thought I recently read something about bricking your device if you try and flash a rom after mf3.
I do appreciate your response and agree I will only flash a rom after clearly understanding each specific roms install instructions.

That is only with the official MF3 OTA update.

I suspected that might be the case, but thought I'd ask just to be sure. Rather not brick my phone, this thing is amazing.

Firstly, start here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42320414&postcount=2
The fact that your are running the MF3 bootloader will prevent you from flashing any custom kernels due to the blown qFuse. Your only option as of right now is to root your device either using Kingo or jortex's root exploit. From their your need to install Hashcode's Safestrap Recovery and go from there with TouchWiz based ROM's for MF3.

Thats correct no custom kernels witch means no overclocking,I think with rom toolbox you can change the voltages.

just asking to see if there's any last hope for it but whats LOKI? ive heard about it in the past. Ive seen on KT's Kernel thread it would work on TW but im guessing it wont work for me being the qfuse issue.
Also if none of these are an option whats the point anymore to root? my old S3 was amazing and i loved flashing new things on it but it seems so locked down now to where the only real benefit of rooting is bloatware removal.

There is a lot of information about "LOKI" and "Rooting" in the General, Development, and Original Development sections.
This phone frustrates the **** out of me. So its rooted and all that with safestrap and when I flash a TW rom all it says is go to slot one and ceeate that and wipe the phone and install and when I do that and reboot all I get os a black screen with a blue led at the top

Use the MF3 Odin files, go back to stock and try again. Are you positive you didn't accidentally flash your TouchWiz ROM to the stock slot? Also... was what ROM was it?
I tried StockUp MJ6 4.3 TW rom. When id flash id do tue wipe it says in the instructions and then go and create rom slot 1 and install to that and then reboot to no avail. Ill have to try the stock ODIN when I get home

You need to use the 4.2, not 4.3 in ss.
Im hoping Flight5 4.2.2 TW will work ill try it when I get home. It saying I can flash a LOKId version of KTs kernel I didnt think that was possible on MF3

Flight5 flashed well and nlKTs kernel didnt w9rk like I figured. It does seem abit faster but as far as benchmark scores its the same. FYI to anyone reading this if you want an S4 and want the non MF3 go to RadioShack and buy your phone. At our store we got 12 of the good S4s in stock

I have an S4 running 4.2.2 and it's currently rooted. But the root does not allow me to have a custom recovery. I want to be able to flash Cyanogen, but I'm not able to at the current time. What is your best idea of what I should do?

Then reread the OP and make sure you do exactly what it states.
Take your time and just make sure to follow each step.
MF3 can be rooted and de bloated but has no real custom recovery.
Safe strap only allows one on 4.3 to flash 4.2 2 roms.

I'm on 4.2.2 and I followed all the instructions very carefully, but whenever I try to load my slot with the Google edition ROM (4.2.2) the phone goes into a continuous boot loop. I have no idea what is wrong and I can't find a solution anywhere.

make sure you partition your slot big enough...try 2 and 1.5 for data...
I did this and it still didn't work. Where is the best guide on how to exactly flash a ROM? I've been following a video guide on it, but it doesn't work.

You are probably using the wrong GE ROM... Only certain ones work. Check the OP of the SS QA thread.

Pick a smaller rom to start...gpe 280 mb...make sure you flash the mf3 module zip after the rom flashes...look in deadly venom 8.2 he has all the links. .his rom is awesome too..its 1.1 gb try that too

I tried to read multiple other threads, all are confusing with many links, flashy text and technical information. I have safestrap 3.65 installed on MF3. What is my next step?
Why would you make a new thread when there's so many out there? You can ask your questions in the specific threads instead of creating a new one.

If it's rooted and you have Safestrap installed than reboot to recovery through the app and make a backup .
Download a compatible 4.3 ROM and follow the instructions for installing the ROM of choice. Ultimately you need to read over and over to make sure you understand what to do.

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?
