Check the market for OTA root keeper, use that and let the update install.

It never used to work without stock recovery but I think CWM will allow you to install the OTA now.

Its been working fine without stock recovery for a long time.
I saw someone mention that freeza had a zip but I can't seem to find it. Thanks

What do you mean update the boot loader? I've never seen anyone ask this for a sprint phone. You can update , baseband and kernels which is usually what freeza has.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 4
I dont think freeza is working on sprint gs4. If you want stock material, read the dev section for posts by crawj.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 2
Freeza moved to T-Mobile when the S4 came out.

You guys are right , I was thinking about the gs3

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.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 4
Yeah i rooted it and got a custom recovery. Im on stock rom with chronic tw 4.2.2 kernel i was wondering when the 4.3 update comes out do i need to unroot to update my software?

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

Is MDC the latest stock recovery for the sprint s4 or is there a MF9 version?

Not really if you don't use Knox you shouldn't care much. I think I'm about to trip it after two months on stock.

One thing people have been confusing lately is a soft brick vs a hard brick. They freak out when theirs phones won't boot past splash screen. When your phone won't turn on at all. That is when you are hard bricked and are pretty much screwed.

I wouldn't say all hope is lost. It's just a long shot. With any hope, the new Kk bootloader will be nicer to us.
