I'm currently thinking of flashing this rom on my S4: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2520418
I current am rooted with the MF3 update and have Safestrap installed. My phone is unlocked with RegionLockAway. Will this rom work fine on my setup with Safestrap? What are the steps I need to take to install this?
It is a Verizon ROM... There would need to be some serious tweaking/mods done if I am not mistaken.

I flashed this rom earlier and it worked for me. Im currently on MF3 with Safestrap installed. Just be sure to download the ATT Compatibility pack from the rom's thread and MF3 kernel modules included in the Safestrap thread and flash them after installing the rom.

Does anyone have a link to download a loki version of the deathstar rom? Also do you know if it requires gapps and which one?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
There isnt one... i believe if its a tmobile s4 rom you can flash as long as you flash a loki'd kernel after. Dont quote me but ive read around the forums that this method works. As far as gapps, not sure as i haven't used this rom before. Check the original thread for installation instructions.

TW roms do NOT require gapps.

you can use shabby penguins recovery and flash it without having to flash a loki kernel right after because his recovery will patch it for you on reboot. Have fun!!
Do you have a link I can download for my version? SGH-I337?

Its in the t mobile forum. If you have twrp, flash an i337 kernel right after or use the auto loki cwm and you don't need to flash the kernels after.

Literally the first post on original development section. SEARCH does not always mean search with the tools, look at the first page or two of the sections.

I would be interested hearing from somebody that is running deathstar rom on their i337, what loki kernel they used, and how the rom is running. I haven't found anything yet on this in any of the att forums.

So I see on nightlies there is a CM-11 Official AT&T 4.4 Kit Kat for the GS4. How can this be? If it's official then why the need for CM? And if run is running CM, then why Kit-Kat?. I thought CM was a ROM in itself?
Sent from my SGH-I337 using Tapatalk
Official means that Cyanogen officially supports the ROM and it is not a port.
4.4 means it is the Android version it is based off of.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Ok, thanks. I'm almost ready to press the button on CM.org's installer. Is it true that I first need to download the GApps zip, because I'll lose all my Google Apps? And I have also seen instructions that say to boot into CWM recovery and wipe data/factory reset... But those instructions were for downloading a CM zip to the extSD and then installing it from recovery mode. I'm wondering if I need to do all that if I'm just going to be using the OneClick installer
Sent from my SGH-I337 using Tapatalk
I don't know anything about the one click. I don't use CM. It is best to follow the instructions from where you found it. Also, I see you are on the i337. What firmware are you on. If it is MF3 or newer, you will not be able to install CM.

Do you recommend any specific rom on mf3 using safestrap

Go back to the Safestrap Discussion thread. There is a list of compatible ROMs. It is entirely up to you what to run.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
We do not recommended or do "best" roms...users are expected to do their own research and make their own, independent determinations.

Im trying to go from mf3 stock 4.3 rooted to 4.4 based roms using safestrap. I understand I need to flash the rom as well the gapps package. Do I need to flash any modules or build props? Would love an answer as I have read many forums and havent found the answer? The rom im trying to flash is unofficial carbon 4.4.

You have read nothing apparently. You keep asking this same question and I myself have told you you can't do it.
I am reporting you for spam. All you are doing is cluttering up the threads and the forums.

Hello I did a search and can't get a straight answer. I have the att gs4 4.2.2 rooted and I'm wondering what version of safestrap I need. I see mixed answers like 3.65, 3.71, 3.72 and I'm not quite sure which is it. Help will be much appreciated!

Check in settings/ more/ about device towards the end what build you have. If you are on 4.2.2 you dont need safestrap any recovery can do. If you are on 4.4.2 its a different story you have a whole different process before you get safestrap. Safestrap use is for locked bootloaders that came after builds NB1 and NC1.
Since you are already rooted there is no use for safestrap. If you are looking to flash custom roms check the ones are compatible with your present build.

If you're on mdb/mdl firmware all you need to do is put on a custom recovery to flash roms. This should help http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42320391

See the second post in the link. You will need safestrap if you're on mf3. But you might want to consider updating your firmware to mk2 then see the first link I gave you. That way you'll be able to flash 4.4.2 roms
