Reset binaries - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How to reset binaries on i9500. As we know still Triangle Away does not support i9500.
Sent from my GT-I9500

As i know, (and i'm not sure) just flash an official rom and then do a full wipe from the recovery.

Just got my new s4 do I update?

Its downloaded OS upgrade to 4.3, currently on 4.2
I haven't installed it yet as it states you cannot downgrade after this update.
I will probably be interested in custom roms and rooting, if I update to this will i not be able to root etc?
Sorry if this is a noob question
You always update via OTA or download ROM and flash?
Which model do you have?

Not really if you don't use Knox you shouldn't care much. I think I'm about to trip it after two months on stock.

One thing people have been confusing lately is a soft brick vs a hard brick. They freak out when theirs phones won't boot past splash screen. When your phone won't turn on at all. That is when you are hard bricked and are pretty much screwed.

How to flash a kernel?

I just wanted to know how do I flash a kernel? I'm on an aosp ROM and wanted to flash a kernel before I applied an update to the ROM. Thanks!

If you don't know how to flash a kernel I don't know how you were able to install a ROM as its nearly the same process.

Yea you just flash it in recovery then typically wipe Cache/Dalvic afterwards. However if you're flashing a ROM update you're going to want to flash the kernel after that since ROMs contain their own kernel that would just wipe out the one you flashed prior.

[Q]Locked bootloader?

I have a question if I can install sacs kk v3 on my l720, L720VPUEMK2?
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk
also if I don't like can I restore the back up I made using Teamwin
Yes you can. Bootloaders on sprint do not block you from using ANY custom ROM.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk
How would I go about installing sacs kk v3
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk
Search and follow instructions on sacs thread. With the questions you are asking I hope you know how to root and install a custom ROM if you haven't done so already.

Rooted plus I backed up using TWRP

TWRP crashes on wipe and restore what is going on?
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk
Might be a bad backup or recovery, try flashing the newest version and then try your restore again. Worst-case, your backup is corrupted and you'll need to start fresh on whatever ROM you have.
Are you trying to restore your backup for some reason?
Found out it was TWRP 2.7.0.0 recovery, but the backups go through and when I reboot it hangs at galaxy s4 screen. Scas custom rom would hang at Android kit kat rotating loading screen. I did give it 10 mins just in case it was the first boot but it never booted.

You need to use Philz or TWRP 2.7.0.1
Odin the recovery for best results and when flashing a ROM reboot recovery after doing wipes, then install ROM
Will safestrap work?

There is no need for safe strap . the bootlaoder is unlocked. If you're talking about the safe strap Roms from Verizon. They should work.

Are you 100% sure, It's a knox 4.3 bootloader.

Sprint phones NEVER require safestrap. That is a Verizon thing because they have locked bootloaders. I'm on NAE rooted with Knox tripped and don't have any issues flashing Roms.

To reset knox after flashing stock there is a method now available for exynos users
