MF9 (debloated and deodexed)

is there one floating around?
i looked but didnt see one
Most Roms are MJA or MK2 now as devs always stay on top of the latest updates. Download stock rooted MF9 and debloat it yourself. I can't remember which ROM might still be on MF9,

i have done the domestic lock so i thought it was good to stay on mf9 with mdc modem. thought about flashing modem back to mf9 as the modem will still stay unlocked but if i goto mja or mk2 i think i loose the unlock carrier mod and plus how do you all deal with knox?
figured most people would still want to stay on a firmware you could downgrade when you want and flash what you want without to much trouble
you think i should stay on mf9 considering my needs or is mja and mk2 ok to upgrade to now?

Safestrap still only option for mf3?

I was on this forum a few months ago when I had an s4. my girlfriend still has one (came with mf3) and is having trouble with her rom so I wanted to go back to stock and put a new updated rom on there for her. I have the mf3 tar files for odin so I can take it back to stock. my question is, with mf3 is safestrap still the only option for custom roms? thanks guys

Yes that's the only way back to stock by flashing MF3.tar.... and also yes to SafeStrap even with the newest MK2 4.3 rom.....SS still the only option we got. ...:good:

After MF3>MJ6>MJ9>MK2.....I added ODIN3v1.85 POST#2....from my MK2.tar Thread....just in case someone need it .........check it out u might want to update to MK2 firmware instead ..... Either way any version of ODIN should work just fine as long as u have your driver installed......if not get it from SAMSUNG KIES.....I believed inside MF3.tar contain 4 md5 files.....and follow this image below where it should go into ODIN SLOT.....GOODLUCK...and also check this MK2 INDEX & ROM LIST by @guut13 if u planning to update to MK2.....:good:.

Search a bit more. You cannot go back to an earlier version of android through odin. you have to get a 4.3 tar. Either MJA or MK2.

Could you please elaborate? I'm a noob (and a dweeb) but I just got updated to KitKat and it sucks. I'm a photographer and I use several photo editing apps that suddenly are not allowed to write to my SD card. I need Jellybean back.

Once updated to kitkat using ota then your stuck with kitkat you can downgrade back to jelly bean. Only way would be flashing a mk2 or mja rom. But you would still be in kitkat nae.

Like he already stated, best you could do now is install a custom recovery after rooting your phone, then flash a Jellybean ROM from there. You familiar with doing any of that?

There is a one line edit needed to restore full write capability to the sdcard with kit kat. It takes about 10 seconds to accomplish but you must be rooted. There is no way to odin back to 4.3 if you OTA to 4.4.2, like stated earlier, you can install a stock like 4.3 rom but I don't think you need to do that. Search for the sdcard write problem in these forums and edit the platform.xml file and all your stuff will write to the sdcard again.

@bengtc
If you are on MDL or MDB just install custom 4.4.2 rom. .... do not update other wise u would stuck with Safestrap recovery ...... and make sure to flash loki patch after that. Coz most custom 4.4.2 rom are prerooted

Right here in this forum. Go back to the main AT&T, Canadian BELL, ROGERS etc header. Choose
ANDROID DEV and they are all in there.
I've only tried Hyperdrive RLS15 on my S4........tried just about every rom on my S3 with good success.
I'm back to stock rooted right now on my S4 because I was unable to get a signal once my SIM was inserted.
Still battling with that. But I also know better than to update to stock 4.4.2....it'll most likely lock up the
phone so only safestrap can be used.... Samsung is getting to be like Apple........
