Hi guys. I'm a noob here in terms of rooting and stuff. Plus, I'm tinkering with my girlfriends phone.
After reading through threads here, I was just able to successfully root her phone earlier using z4root and I already got TitaniumBackup so that we'd be able to prepare for upgrading. She currently has stock eclair.
Just wanna ask what rom would you suggest for better phone performance. Plus, what'd be the process when upgrading and all. Any help would be appreciated.

Do you have fastboot or recovery? I think you'll have to flash a Fastboot ROM via KDZ.

Thanks. Another question though, what'd be the link for the KDZ/Fastboot rom? I really have no idea how'd the process go.

I've been reading the link that you posted and already have the things needed. So basically, I do the said steps first then I could flash any rom right?
Yes, any fastboot or recovery ROM.
Good luck with kdz!!!!
Hey guys,
I searched the board many times, but I can't find an tutorial which explains some steps to get completely back to stock Rom.
At the moment I'm using the cm10.1 with the same v8 bootloader.
Is it just enough to flash stock ROM ?
Will this reset the bootloader and recovery to Stock?
Best regards, Markus

Oh wow. Why didn't I find this on my own? I searched pretty long because I was sure that someone must have written a guide, but I can't find it.
I'll try this and report later.
Thanks mate.

No I don't sorry
Don't know if this is what your lookin for ?
what drivers? PC S4 (USB and other) drivers? Go and install Kies and let it connect once, it will DL the proper drivers and install them, and after that kill Kies and Kies processes on your PC and you're set for Odin...
Edit: Then if you need those specific drivers again and on the same PC (or even a different one), then repeat the steps or simply perform the backup with Driver Magician or similar and you'll have them even after the PC format...
Dang! now I already rooted my phone. So whats next for me? Should i install recovery now?
Go ahead and install a custom recovery and flash away.

Here is cwm rec (bottom 1st post)here just flash the .tar via odin
PhilZ is an advanced version of custom recovery with more customization and options. It is working great and I don't really see the need to go for a regular CWM; either PhilZ or TWRP should be the way to go - depends on what you fancy more :good:

Wouldn't that method put knox to 0x1? Or am I mistaken. And couldn't he try using towelroot, depending on the version hes on?
He doesn't have a Verizon phone. He has an international model or at least that is what he listed. Not everyone can go up and down firmwares like we can.
You are right though. He could try towelroot first.

The full instructions here should help. The only difference is that you need the kernel/firmware for your specific s5 version.
Thank

Your questions would be safer answered by someone on the Galaxy S5 international forum but I found a couple of things. Use with caution as I don't know anything about your device.
Here is a link on how to upgrade to lollipop if you are interested. Also, this custom recovery (CWM) was in the same link. I believe you might have an unlocked boot loader so you are way better off than we are.
I also found this:
Backup device
Quote:
Step 1. Boot into recovery(hold the menu button and volume up button all together simultaneously until the device reboots)
Step 2. Select the backup button and confirm backup

Hi,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505G which I flashed a custom rom on about a year or so ago.
I have since tried to update/flash it again with no joy. My baseband version is (meant to add my baseband when my phone loaded, it didn't.... Its something like MEA on the end.
I tried updating it so many ways, all different roms, stocks, baseband updates, god knows what else and I spend a lot of time on it also.
When ever I try to flash a stock rom using ODIN it fails. I recently tried to flash 5.1 I9505GUEUDOH2 Full Restore hoping it would just solve all my issues but now I seem to be in a boot loop.
I honestly don't know why this has happened.
Please can some one give me some advice or point me in the right direction?
Sorry if this is in the wrong section.
Thank you in advanced

Okay, so I managed to sort a sort of fix, I guess.
I used odin in download mode to flash twrp recover using BL. I launched into recovery and installed a I9505 rom onto my phone. So its currently working and I will probably leave as is in worry that if I continue to mess around I may brick it for good lol
Thank you

My guess is you were flashing the wrong roms. You probably have an I9505 and not an I9505G.
