Loki a kernel? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Hello I was wondering basically everything about loki. How to use it, where to get it and such, I cant find much information and with my AT%T phone the kernel I want to use is not working!
Thank you for your time.

You can't find much information? There is a ton of it here. Look thru the threads on xda. It'll take you awhile but will be worth the effort. The only way to learn is to do the research. And Google " your topic + xda" will find what your looking for in xda.

Custom ROM Screenshots + Install help

Got it solved, thank you guys
Dude, Uh, Back up one page and read the threads that begin with [ROM]... Not trying to be a smart ass. But seriously homie..
Just read the stickys and how-to guides and this should answer a lot if your questions. In the threads about specific roms is where you'll find screenshots. But a lot of the benefits of specific roms have nothing to do with cosmetics, so you won't get a good idea about each rom without trying them and comparing.
Fyi posting questions that have been asked and answered without searching to find your answer first is likely to get you the middle finger from some members and make people not want to help you, so just keep that in mind. Enjoy your rooted eris when it happens.

Here you go. Thank you very much for looking.

Most of the threads about rooting, backups, flashing roms and the like are in the development forum.
If you're having any issues or want to browse through, go to that forum and scroll through the first few pages of threads.
The first couple "sticky" threads have a lot of useful info in them.
thank you.

See the two guides in my sig about the HD2. First read the guide to the terms then read the Android installation guide. You can't 'root' an HD2. Please search before posting next time.

Thank you for your response.
Would it be possible to help people without calling them stupid. And as I stated I did search and nowhere did I find it can't be rooted. Now that I know that and have the thread, again thank you.

Where did I call you stupid? If you'd searched well, you'd have easily found that all HD2 Android ROMs come rooted as stock, and that you can't 'root' Windows Mobile. I refuse to believe that you did a proper search before posting, because literally 10 seconds of SEARCHING gave me this thread, in which it is quite clearly stated in the fifth post that all Android ROMs come pre-rooted. Now I consider you to be stupid for saying that I originally called you stupid when I didn't call you stupid.
You signature
I searched for "rooting" I also looked for titles with Rooting in the stickies and didn't see it. I found plenty of roms but not the typical rooting thread in the stickies. Now I know why. It doesn't need rooting.
Something more helpful would be a stating the reason you can't find "rooting" instructions is it is not typical of these devices and doesn't require it. Please see this thread (link) for instructions on installing roms. Enjoy.
That's how decent understanding adult humans communicate. Not what is in your signature.
If you couldn't find that guide (either through searching via forum search or even browsing the NAND Dev stickies) then you are indeed an idiot, which is why I put it in my sig. If you really want, I'll remove it. This phone comes with WinMo, how did you expect to root it when it doesn't have Android on it? I can't root a sat nav or a toaster, how can I root a WinMo phone when it doesn't have Android? It's fairly simple logic. Finally, if you can't handle the word 'stupid' you really shouldn't be on the internet.
Leave it. It will warn others to what they are dealing with.

I find it hard to believe that you didn't see this post that is already on the front page...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2342278
I can give you this advice...
Go to each S4 subforums and read ALL of the pinned (stickied) threads.
LEARN to use the forums search function
Start reading the "suggested" threads that automatically show up when you start to post a question.
This is the BEST help you will get, ignore it if you want, IDK, but please don't post about it not being helpful if you choose to not follow it.
If you follow the advice, good luck, I'm sure you will get on track.
Thanks

[Q] Just got the phone, what can I do with it? (Rogers)

Hello all, I come from the sgh-t959 forums. I just purchased an S4 (rogers variant) about an hour ago, and now I'm eager to learn what fun stuff I can do with this. So I have a few questions to ask you to feel more comfortable with this phone .
Are different roms worth putting on? I only cm on my old phone because stock was 2.3.6, this bad boy runs 4.3.
I found the root procedure for my phone, will it the procedure work on the new firmware? (Link below to the procedure I'm referring to)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2293800 = link to the auto root thread I was talking to above
Is there any fun tweak's I should be aware of to put on it?
Any apps that are most have on it?
Can't wait to get this baby to the latest android.
Any links or information related to my phone model are much appreciated, because theirs so much to sort through.
So yeah, hello Samsung S4 section of XDA, I hope I'll get along with you all.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I am a noob here until further notice
You need to read the "pinned" threads in the 'general" and "Q&A" sections before you do anything. Almost all questions about the S4 have already been asked and most of the answers can be found in those threads or through the threads linked in them. The search function will also be useful. Make sure you follow the XDA rules and search before asking. Above all, remember, this is a development site. It is up to you to search read and learn about your device before you do anything to it. If you follow these suggestions, you should do just fine. Good luck.
Ahhh perfect, can you delete your post so I can delete this thread?
Edit: MODZZZ delete my noobish thread please/
