Google Edition S4 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys.
I know how to root phones or flash Custom ROMs but i habe a question : Will it be possible to flash an official Google ROM (when it comes out of course) and recieve OTA Updates?
Hope for a quick answer.

If you use the forums search function you will find many instances where people ran across the same thing for many different reasons. You will need to check (based on what you will find) and see which reason is causing your problem with ADB. It could be anything from a driver issue to out-of-date SDK tools and many other reasons so there is no way to know until you check and trouble shoot.
the de-odex thread talks about at&t. will this work on other carriers?
Rogers in particular?

Link for loki'd deathstar rom

Does anyone have a link to download a loki version of the deathstar rom? Also do you know if it requires gapps and which one?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
There isnt one... i believe if its a tmobile s4 rom you can flash as long as you flash a loki'd kernel after. Dont quote me but ive read around the forums that this method works. As far as gapps, not sure as i haven't used this rom before. Check the original thread for installation instructions.

TW roms do NOT require gapps.

you can use shabby penguins recovery and flash it without having to flash a loki kernel right after because his recovery will patch it for you on reboot. Have fun!!
Do you have a link I can download for my version? SGH-I337?

Its in the t mobile forum. If you have twrp, flash an i337 kernel right after or use the auto loki cwm and you don't need to flash the kernels after.

Literally the first post on original development section. SEARCH does not always mean search with the tools, look at the first page or two of the sections.

I would be interested hearing from somebody that is running deathstar rom on their i337, what loki kernel they used, and how the rom is running. I haven't found anything yet on this in any of the att forums.

[Q] Nexus 4 Rom And Google Updates.

Hello guys!
This is my first post here so I'm sorry if this is not the place to ask.
I'm interested to Root and put Rom on my Nexus 4.
My question is, it is possible to have Root and Rom on Nexus 4 and still get Google updates.
Hope for an answer soon , Thanks in advance.
Not if you use a custom Rom. You would have to go back to stock to receive the update, or wait for the Rom developer to incorporate the update.

Couldn't you just use voodoo root keeper?

4.3 update appearing on 9505

Right I don't know if this is normal or not I have a 9505 running a Google play rom, and I've just received a notification that a system update has download and I can touch to update. I'm guessing this would brick my phone I just wondered if this was happening to anyone else.
