You would download Wicked, flash that, before you boot, flash your kernel that is made for YOUR device. It will work.
But can u do that with any ROM or carrier with my at&t s4?

Hi,
If you have the International variant ,you are fine.
Only the US AT&T variant is locked.

@OP: you have to press F8 while booting, if you'll see the options, then ur bootloader is unlocked....
... sorry, couldn't resist
Loki is great to get around the lock bootloader

1.Does this mean that i can flash a rom like cm10 normally?
2.Also i heard most roms come with root pre installed so does this mean if i flash a custom rom it will give me root access?

the international version is the i9500 ( exynos5 )

[Q] Why there are less mods for i9500??

Is it because of the different quad-cores?? Will i9500 ever get miui??

It's something like that. Exynos isn't as open as Qualcomm is and Samsung (AFAIK) has no intentions of releasing the sources/documentation that the devs need to make fully functional custom ROMs.
Thanks for replying.
So that means we won't be able to rum miui on i9500??
