HELP!
My Galaxy S4 has NAND Write FAILED on Odin, I know it's definitely bricked. Is there anyone that can fix it with Jtag? or anywhere here in Clovis/Fresno/Sanger California Location?
S4 Specs:
-SGH-i337 (MF3, had the OTA 4.3 Firmware update)
Insights;
I tried to do Odin, and flashed multiple, compatible PDA and stuff etc, but all failed. It's because of 4.3 and KNOX..#@$3! Best Buy couldn't fix it either.
I talked with a pro tech guy with Wysdom App for Android, and it can be revived by Jtagging.
Please help ASAP! Thanks!

From what I read AT&T pulled the update because it had "Problems". So ATM there's no OTA.

Starting at the MF3 point in this thread helped me. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2526964
The OP has a link to download the update and side load it. I was able to install off my sd card through stock recovery. I detailed somewhere towards the end of the thread how I did it. It was off topic however. Feel free to ask questions. I will try to consolidate a good how to a little later tonight.

Raidel00 has a thread opened up for mf3 to mj9. I don't know how successful his thread has been since I used the other method (link) you posted and it worked fine for me. But don't you just have to side load it through adb or through SD card? Since your on mf3 you dont have to download the mf3 partial file that I had to download since I was on mj6 correct?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium
This is correct. Just download the update file, rename to a zip and side load through adb or use recovery to install.

About to try this with my ATT S4 with MF3 and report.
If you do have troubles still when your phone boots and you are rooted use a file explorer to look at the log files in /cache/recovery to see where it failed.
This is how I installed my MJ9. I had a modified feature.xml file.

hi ted...updated my drivers, used your link to get the newest odin...now here comes the dumb stuff...seriously, i am 57 and i could have auditioned for "dumb and dumber" so here goes..
i see all the files...the .tar files.. if i do not download the "all in one", do i download and use the three other .tar files? (stockrecovery, stockmodem and boot? or do i just use one? my goal s to have 4.3 and a rooted phone. am i able to save all my apps and data using titanium backup with no fear of losing all my stuff?
thanks for repeating what is probably here somewhere and i could figure out if i took a few days..

Choose only one. ... If u use 4 files then u need to place it according to image on post #2...... Each file goes to each Odin slot. ...... but if u choose all in one file then only place it on PDA slot from Odin. The others separate files from post#3 use it only if you soft bricked and want to replace certain file ( recovery, boot or modem).Both 4 files and all in one files would wipe your data and apps..... It would take you straight to stock MK2 firmware.

MK2 being 4.3? it seems to me, the easiest riute is the all in one, although it is huge..i can always delete it after use of course.
from what i understand, even after a wipe, i can reinstall titanium backup and get all my data and apps back or is there a better way? member, dumber here...
and, stock MK2... is there a link to rooting this after i do the upgrade ? i like a rooted phone..i unlocked the bootloader on my atrix , i guess more as an act of defiance than knowing wtf i was doing...
so now with my S4, i hope to resolve the freeze and wi-fi issues...i had no such problems with my S3..and of course i want to attain root.
thanks!

Welp, you can try going back to your old firmware through Odin, but if you can't (I own i337 not m), then you might want to consider taking it to best buy or something. Also, are you sure that the 4.3 was for i337M and not regular i337? *That's probably not it buuuut it's worth looking into, yeah?*

Friend, I tried to make the root from my phone. When trying to install a modified room gave error, and the phone did not start anymore. I tried to restore the kies but without success.
Do you remember the last three letters of your build # .
For example MDB, MDL, MF3, MJ6, MJ9, MK2.
I can't give correct advice without knowing witch one you have.

You need to downgrade to Mk2 to root. Check this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52991114
Flash full Nb1.
When you flash MK2 as soon is done take out battery and go into recovery by pressing home+volume up+power, do factory reset then reboot.
Ŕoot with safe root
Install safe strap and install recovery.
Flash bypass km in recovery to fix wifi. Finish setup.
Download and place only Tw base roms if you want to flash other roms.
The use the magic tool given in the link of the previous post.

hey so im a noob right now, this is my first post on here and ive been searching for endless hours looking for an answer.
I have a
Samsung Galaxy S4 AT&T SGH-I337 (got in Arizona, but says Made in Korea)
Firmware: 4.4.3
im trying to find a method that will work for my phone to root it, i have a 32 gb sd card and ive read that other people are not successful with the same phone as me, something like it being "bootlock" by the carrier in this case "AT&T" .
and i have no idea what like nb1 mk2 things are im seriously so lost in ever loop i need helpp lol
but ive looked around for solutions and cant seem to find one.
if there is anyone who can help me root my phone, ill give you any info that you need from my phone,:laugh:
thanks !
There is no direct root method for KitKat. So, you have to do a partial downgrade to MK2(4.3), root and then install a pre-rooted KitKat ROM.
