Flash the newest radio which i believe is the .84 radio
do you have a link and do I have to install the radio while doing the rom and the gapps?

For 4.3 custom ROMs the makoz20i bootloader is not required, but the .84 radio is required.

It's recommended to upgrade to the makoz20i bootloader to be ready for KeyLimePie.
Flash the radio and bootloader first, then flash the ROM, Gapps, and SuperSU (if not included in the ROM).

Why? The next android version will probably have a newer bootloader as well, I dont get your point...

Did u flash the new bootloader and radio?
Sent using xda-developers app
All I have flashed is the update and the new supersu files I needed, what effects will flashing a new boot loader and radio have? And where can I get them?

Galaxy s4 help

Just got my s4 and was wondering if I can just root it and install a custom tw based kernel on the stock rom?
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
Yes you can root it, use cf-autoroot and then install a custom recovery so you can install the kernel you want to use.

Ok thats what i was gonna do but i didnt know if it was good to use a custom kernel on the stock rom
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
Yes custom is better in most cases as far as customizing.

For you to get the new update, you atleast need to be on stock rooted with no mods whats so ever and have stock recovery. And you can get update but if you have custom recovery its aborts it

Flashable 4.4.1 modem and radio?

As thr title stated is their a flashable modem and radio for 4.4.1 kitkat?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
nope, sorry but the 4.4.1 update only provided bugfixes and some single improvements, no core updates to kernel, modem or radio
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
yes, actually there is a new radio for 4.4.1 (.98) you can refer this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2087227
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
You can remove the radio.img from the factory image and flash it with fastboot or an app like Flashify.
FYI, modem and radio are the same thing.
