Hey guys...

I'm not sure about completely untouched GE roms, but kangabean is an amazing GE rom I recommend that.

Of course there is an untouched GE 4.3 ROM. Just download it from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2395030
It's from the i9505 forum, but it is the same phone, and works fine. I am running it myself.
Just make sure you already have a custom recovery on the i337 first. I prefer CWM because it auto loki's your ROMs for you.

[Q] What is jfltespr?

I am looking to get the Offiical Cyanogen Mod ROM for the Sprint galaxy s4, but it says I need "jfltespr" what is this? I am currently rooted and have a custom ROM, Sacs rom V 5.0. Here are screenshots of my "About phone"

Basically I want to get an AOSP ROM, I don't mind if it's Cyanogen Mod, I'm actually going to ask another question: What AOSP Rom would you recommend, and does it require "jfltespr" if so how do I get that? Thanks, sorry for being such a noob d:
Jfltespr is just a code name. It is the sprint Galaxy S4. it had me confused when I downloaded slimkat.

Thanks! So can I download any AOSP Rom? Or do they only work on specific firmware's? I think I have MK2, do all AOSP roms work on MK2?
I still have mf9 firmware on my phone. I haven't updated it to mk2. I haven't had any issues. I am running a dual boot of sacs custom 5.2 touchwiz and the latest slimkat aosp weekly rom.
So I guess to answer, they should be compatible either way. Maybe not with pre mf9 firmware but I can't confirm that. I haven't really found a reason yet to update to mk2 modem but I've only owned this phone for 3 days.

I took the MJA update and have the MK2 modem...and all the AOSP ROMs 4.3 and up work. I just cannot use any below 4.3
"Remember if you say Please...make sure you hit Thanks!!!"

Can I flash nc4, nc8, nc9, etc. Roms over a nb1 ROM?

In the Att all thing mk2 nb1 section it has all this ROMs that are all 4.4.2 based but I wasn't sure if they would work and could be flashed over a nb1 ROM in another slot

To be on this forum and understand your phone you got to do some reading. This question has been made hundred of times. When i join this forum they would be really nasty for asking the same question over and over.
I will give you an answer anyway.
Since you have one of the latest builds. AT&T has locked the bootloader which makes very hard the process of rooting and installing custom roms. In other words you can only flash TW roms.

Yes i knew that nb1, mk2, and mf3, all have lock bootloaders which mean i can only flash tw based roms. I was asking if the others like nc8 nc9 build numbers are like variants of nb1 or something like that since they are listed under 4.4.2 tw based roms. now im thinking that those are for people who had what ever build came before mf3 that can use loki to flash the latest roms.lease tell me if im wrong.

You can flash any build that is the same android version. The only thing that people with Loki get are AOSP ROMs. Other bases like nc9 and others are still Touchwiz.

Yes. Any Touchwiz ROM from any S4 except the 8 core I9500 will work.

I'm Looking For A Custom Kitkat 4.4.2 Rom For My S4

I am looking for a custom KitKat rom 4.4.2. All the ones I'm finding will not flash successfully. The one I did find was messing up my phone modem (radio) and it was causing dropped calls and EDGE connection problems so I flashed it back to stock. I want a new custom rom without this issue that is rooted with Wifi/tethering.
I have the Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-I337 model with AT&T.
I appreciate any help it I can get with this!

If you take the time to read like most of us have. You will find out that you can't flash custom rooms if you are on kit kat until devs find exploit, which is going to be very hard.

From what he says you could tell he is either on mk2, nb1 or NC1 which the bootloader is lock down and as most of us know we can only flash Tw roms.

I don't get that from his post. He wants to flash a kk custom rom and he seems to be able to flash roms which tells me he has a custom recovery.
Op, can you tell us what firmware version you're on?

Knox question

Just to clarify for myself...
I am currently running stock rooted 4.4.2 NAE rom and am wanting to move to a custom one.
To keep from bricking my phone I must install another NAE 4.4.2 rom correct?
Cuz you can't downgrade with Knox right?
What about this JFLTE I'm seeing?
Does it have to be 4.4.2 or have to be NAE or both?
I'm sure these questions are out there somewhere. But I don't see it (please don't flame me for asking)
Thanks!

With CUSTOM Roms you can downgrade. Its only with official Samsung tars that you cannot. And JFLTE is the codename for the Samsung Galaxy s4. And usually only used with AOSP roms.
