Is there a way to flash it just like a ROM?

I don't think so maybe someone else might know better.are you having problems with Odin?
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 4

Just not really sure on the process is it pretty much to flash stock back on so I can do updates? Or did it just pretty much replace the radios. The only reason why I really want to do this because it seems like my signal isn't strong I don't know if it's because I haven't done a PRL update profile update or if its just the ROM. I'm not new to routing and flashing ROMs. But I practically know anything about modems. I know you have to reflash the stock rom meaning TouchWiz to update profile and PRL but like a dumbass I deleted the stock rom backup.

If you follow the directions it pretty easy it only updates you're modem

How did you flash a Verizon rom? What are the troubles that you ran into?
You can flash any carriers roms. Just have to use a sprint kernel. Think the the only s4 roms u cant flash is the i9500. I flashed omega from i9505 s4 n boots fine. You will most likely have data issues and im not sure how to fix. Also there was an update 2 the international s4, not really sure how that plays into compatibility for us.

you're still going to have data issues. I read something about modifying apn, but I don't personally have experience with that.

OK I just tried flashing and I ran into a boot loop. I'm gonna try again later today if anyone wants to try it out and share there outcomes here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2306650
I'm thinking trying a different kernel but we'll see...
Try a touchwiz kernel and make sure the rom doesn't have a modem file. It will say in the description of the ROM.

What if I wanted to flash the Miui V5 Rom in the link, how would I do that just flash an AOSP kernel after the rom?
Then just flash a aosp kernel. After applying the ROM.

As long as you wipe data and cache after flashing the ROM then flash a sph l720 aosp kernel.

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.

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
Ok thanks i just got my s4 like 2 days ago lol i love it its so much better than the s3

are radio's even flashable with a locked bootloader? hope so but can't find any answers.
Wondering the same thing. Really burned me today when I was in an LTE area, and had LTE in my status bar, but no data connectivity whatsoever.

Using I337 S4 rooted unable to install safestrap unable to parse issues. Any help
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Ok everything worked good untill the custom rom flash.. It wouldn't leave the galaxy s4 screen.. So I had to re Odin the Damn thing because it didn't load safestrap anymore.. We'll. Odin failed for 2 Damn hours but after many failed attempts it finally got me back to NB1.. Then I refreshed NC1, installed towelroot and superuser and safestrap and changed to permissive.. Tried flashing a different rom (deadly venom) and every time I try to load it it just loads the normal firmware but on the custom slot.. So I'm not sure if I did anything wrong or if I should try a 3rd rom
Sent from my SM-P600 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I got golden eye to work on the main slot I think.. It's says that it's the build but it looks stock
Edit: after reviewing the goldeneye page.. It says stock look and feel so I'm assuming it's working..
