Do you think I must flash a stock recovery and a stock kernel?

Hi,
Yes.
And wipe data and cache.
So backup first

Ok thanks.
I'd 4 backup of my device. One on CM, one on MIUI, one with Google Edition and One with stock ROM.

I don't understand, he say "job done" but I can't update him. He always say that the device has been modified. And if I launch Triangle, flash counter is on 0 and binary status on "Official". Do you have an idea?

Up please

TriangleAway doesn't support S4 yet, respected Chainfire is on vacation, wait for him to return.

Version 1.90
I know there is a newer version but if I can't open it, I can't update it and the new one is $3.00. Do you think the newer one would work?

download the last version v 2.90 from Here. see if it is compatible with s4.
(some users report that it worked. DO IT ON YOUR OWN RISK!)
Triangle Away v2.90 is compatible with my rooted (MDF) S4 GT-I9505.
I can confirm that V2.90 works on my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 also.
I need confirmation for GT-I9500 please :thumbup:

See the attached ..
it works on the T-Mobile Galaxy S4 SGH-M919, at least the reset counter part, have not tried the reset the custom status in the status section in the settings
may be u didnt root ur device well
It's simple. As things stand Triangle Away works on rooted Qualcomm S4 phones (I9505) but not on Exynos (I9500, I9502 etc). Im sure Chainfire will rectify this in due course.

Hi there,
I installed v 2.90, run it, reset counter (it said 16), after that phone freezes, need to take battery out. After that reboot, but counter still shows 16.
Question: what did I do wrong?
PS: phone rooted!
Sonetimes you need to press the reset button a couple of times. Mine hung the first time too. Just run it and reset it again.

Your status needs to be set to "OFFICIAL" before you can reset the counter. Flash an unmodified recovery and set the temporary SU disable option in TA.

There is nothing you can do at the moment on the I9500. The latest ver (2.90) of Triangle Away is not compatible.
Hopefully someone will have a fix soon.
And for the I9505 ?

[Q] Reseting Binary Counter (I9500)

What up guys, so was thinking of finally rooting my phone and flashing all these beautiful roms, but my problem is that we can not reset the binary counter using ...or thats what i know. All I know is that triangle away isn't yet supported for the I9500 model and so my question is..does anyone know if there is an actual way to reset it or if anyone knows when Chainfire will release the compatible update.
Thanks
Stay Cool.

it's against the Rules on XDA to say which Rom is the best so just go for the most popular one

No. there is no way till now to reset the binary counter
You can flash a pre rooted ROM via ODIn and it would not increase the counter and you would also have root

I guess you are wrong Buddy. You are talking about Device Status. We are talking about BInary Counter. There is No Way you can see the binary counter in I9500.

Well "dear" thats the status not the counter, the counter is when you install any not samsung recovery like cwm and install roms and stuff from there which will make the counter increase each time...

Due. You are confused. There are 2 things Device Status ( what you are talking about ) and Binary Counter ( what i am talking about )
What You are Saying that Is in regards to Device Status and Not Binary Counter,
Please Read through XDa to understand the Difference between the 2
And i am happy being a Human then a "Dear"

As far as I know, the only way you can go back to your old bootloader is to restore a NAND backup from before 4.4.2. Making a backup before any experimentation in ROM's is always advised as step 1.
