I successfully flashed i9505 Omega ROM v7 on I337M (Canadian)
Everyhing works fine but the wifi. I can't seem to turn my wifi on.
Tried looking into it, something about flashing a kernel. So I tried but doesn't work...
Anybody else have same problem that can help me?
Did you manually add in your apn settings, because that rom does not add them automatically, and you said you flashed a different kernel, was it one for YOUR device...i337m kernel?
These 2 things will get you data and wifi for sure.
The Ax says good luck!
v11 on i337m
I didn't want to start a new topic as this one seems to be titled correctly and am hoping to keep XDA clean and getting all the Omega Rom and i337m questions in one place.
I installed Omega v11 on my i337m (Samsung s4) and the ROM worked perfectly however I was no longer able to bring up my IMEI number. When entering *#06# my phone would just show a black screen where the number should be shown. I of course got scared and ran around in circles for a while before calming down and flashing stock FIDO firmware. (phone was originally rogers, was unlocked and used on bell then sold to me) I rooted the phone, installed Omega and then had the issue with it not being able to show the IMEI.
Flashed Omega v11 for i9095
(also bought the omega files pro app because it's a bad ass ROM.) Hoping to go back to it but need to clear up this issue.
Any ideas on why this would happen?
Hi Guys,
I am having an issue with my Galaxy S4 i337m Rogers phone. I am trying to revert back to stock rom by flashing the stock rom through ODIN but everytime I end up flashing the stock rom, i get BELL's bloatware instead of Rogers/Fido. I found the stock rom in one of the xda-developers threads:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2269304and Sammobile. None of them seem to work.
The PDA i have been using is: I337MVLUAMG1 and also I337MVLUAMDJ. Note that I havent flashed the KERNEL.
I think that I might have done something when I installed the CUSTOM ROM "FOXHOUND" that i messed up something. The phone works fine but I want to get the rogers bloatware or at least know how to get them back in case I have to return my phone for warranty purposes. Can anyone please help.

You are experiencing this problem as you have probably downloaded and installed Bell's original ROM.
If you wish to get Roger's original stock bloatware then you'll have to search for Roger's stock ROM and flash that one.
If you need further help regarding this topic, feel free to send me a PM.
:good:
I have searched for rogers stock rom and flashed that one from a few different sites. Each time I end up with bell bloatware. So I guess this certainly is not an issue of me flashing the wrong Stock Rom. Thanks for your reply though.
I don't think you downloaded the Roger firmware. It should end in bma3
Edit, at least this is what sammobile shows
if you click on the link I provided in my original thread, you will see that all ROGERS, BELL, TELUS have the same PDA file name. :S
Yea, it looks like all the stock firmware is the same despite the carrier
Roger's stock bloatware

You could always un-install Bell's bloatware and flash/install Roger's bloatware.
I've seen Roger's flashable bloatware zips for the Galaxy S4 on here...
Will flashing the kernel solve the issue? Sorry if this may be a dumb question as I am a newbiee when it comes to this.

No, that won't help. I wouldn't worry too much. My experience with warranty is that they don't really check what firmware you're on. They do end up flashing the latest firmware before returning it to you, though. I think it's their standard practice.

First off, good question
To answer your question:
No the kernel won't affect user nor system apps, so flashing a new kernel won't result in fixing your problem regarding the Roger's bloatware application(s).
I read in other forums, people are having a similar issue that I am experiencing. Some suggested changing the CSC Code by typing *#272*IMEI#. I did that by changing from BMC(BELL) to RWC(ROGERS) and even FMC(FIDO). The phone restarts but I still end up having BELL bloatware. When i check my CSC again, it has gone back to BMC. Why isn't the CSC changing?
Look for Samsung csc on playstore il also need to be rooted to use this program

In response to this matter I can say I experience the same issue when trying to flash Bell Firmware onto a Galaxy S4 running the same firmware but with Rogers bloatware and a Rogers CWC being that it was / is a Rogers Device. The problem is that the firmware is exactly the same except for the fact that the bloatware is different based on the carrier.
What you need to do is root your device and flash a custom rom that does not include any of the carrier bloatware and then flash back to the Stock Canadian Firmware which includes the bloatware for your carrier.
What would be easier is if the Bell / Rogers / Fido / Telus firmware was available for download without the bloatware and then it could be installed by the user should they choose to do so.

I just rooted my Rogers Galaxy S4 using Motochopper and then installed Samsung CSC and then changed my CWS to BMC (Bell) and it changed all my bloatware to Bell and removed all the Rogers.
Works Well. Thanks very much.

I would ask this question there but I have fewer then 10 posts, I have a JFLTECAN Samsung Galaxy S4 on Bell, and I installed Danvdh's rom using the latest TWRP recovery, after the rom is installed I have no signal, this problem I only seem to run in when installing this rom, any idea's on how to fix this?
Are you able to search network on your phone? I think you may have to set up APN manually.
I am using the same ROM on my Fido S4 with Wind. No issues so far.

I'll cut to the chase. I've read about 200 pages and can't seem to find what I'm after. I read the noob threads which were very informative.
I am located in Australia. Bought an AT&T Galaxy s4 from eBay Hong Kong. My last phone was an HTC and I used numerous ROMs on it but I want to keep touchwiz and samsung apps for now. I'm not ready to ditch all the features on my new phone just yet by installing a custom, stripped down ROM.
My GS4 came with JB 4.3, Baseband version MJ6.
I want to apply the AT&T 4.4.4 'official' update, but due to being on a different carrier in a different country, the OTA update just won't happen.
Can anyone point me to the official 4.4.4 firmware ?
Thanks in advance.
Anyone?
It doesn't exist. Samsung nor the carriers ever published it. The closest it 4.4.2 located in the general forum

Hello All,
I have a samsung galaxy s4 i337m in canada using the rogers netowork. Ive been using customs roms shortly after i got this phone. Ive used samsung rom, original, GPE but eventually settled on Cyanogenmod. I use TWRP for the i9505 which allows me to use any rom (since CM12 doesnt have a build for the i337m, and other builds wont flash in a i337m TWRP).
Anyway ive been using CM 12.1 with a i9505 build for some time, and it works great. I had to update my modem to the NI2 build to get it to work, but its been working flawless ever since.
Now to my problem, buddy has an S4, same model, same carrier. He claims he needs a new phone and i beg to differ. I rooted, installed twrp (i9505)and cm12.1 (i9505). works great, however no network connectivity. I remember i need a new modem, try the same one that works with mine....nothing... try a different one.... nothing. calls and SMS, but not data of any speed.
Reverting to kitkat roms results in it working perfectly (multiple modems). both from his original Nandroid and CM 11. All lollipop roms seems to have the same issue, no mobile data. Wifi works fine. No issues with SIM card, switched them between the two phones and confirmed its HIS phone with the issue.
Im a little puzzled, can someone recommend a modem to load? should I try to use TWRP an CM12 for the ATT variant/ different variant? I want to help him but this is making me look amateur (even if its true).
Thanks ahead of time.
