Hello, quick question... - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can I still upgrade to the 5.0 android when it comes out even if my S4 is rooted??

Yes, but you might have to install a custom firmware or return to stock without root, or just remove the root and wait for the ota update.

I hope we get it, but I'd say we'll be waiting quite a while but no guarantees either.

Don't make duplicate threads about the same issue (Especially so when people are already helping you in your thread in General).

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?

Yes you can root it, use cf-autoroot and then install a custom recovery so you can install the kernel you want to use.

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

Don't upgrade yet. If you do , you will have to settle for a full stock experience or void your warranty.
you can try the echoe rom , based on what i have read in its form , it s pretty solid. Anyway if you have the old bootloader keep it for now .
Tx guys.i went official...
