Hi, I'm new here! Just rooted my phone a couple of weeks ago and installed a AOSP GS4 GPE 4.4.2 Kitkat by jamal2367! Everything is fine, the ROM is working perfectly but there is just one thing that I don't understand about it, this message that shows up when I boot my device! Can someone explain this to me? Thanks!

What does that mean? Sorry, I'm a newbie heheh and is there anyway to fix this? I really like the GPE version.. If this is not critical, I would just keep it the way it is

This isnt critical. Only is the message that u tripped the Knox changing the official kernel for one custom :highfive:
I see! And is there anyway to hide or take away that message? If I can't, I don't mind.. My phone is way better than before! Google Edition with Softkeys made my s4 the best one

I'd like to know this too. It seems odd to me there isn't a simple way of converting a normal S4 to a Google Edition version...
I would love to know some info about that too.
You can't convert s4 into a gpe this has been answered already. .... partitions are different and if you try to change s4 partition you'll Brick your phone... We know it's same hardware but just Google and you'll see why it can't be done ...
Only a custom rom will work. ..jamal2367

no. stop asking. you've been told several different times in this thread now that, if you're on MF3, you cant do much right now without bricking your device or making things hard on yourself in general.
wait for an exploit and read up until then.
Whoa watch ur tone I understand wat I was told in my thread it was jus a little hard to believe that there was such an issur with exact same firmware for identical devices
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
It's hard for you to believe because you don't search up on and/or read anything. Don't tell me to watch my tone. I don't care what you think or how your little heart feels. I simply am trying to keep you from bricking your device. Maybe it's about time you gave as much of a $h*t about your device as i do. I'm here to help. Don't get offended. Cheers
Lnao buddy listn here let me started over I asked the question s because on the 3 u can because the hardware is identical I reoeated myself because u felt I may have been unclear and missunderstood and I am no noob I searched and whst I found I wasnt clear on because it didnt specifically answer the question I felt I was askin ergo the reason for the thread and blno my feeling werent hurt the fact is u dnt dnt talk to ppl jus anykind of way because they go on your nerves u could have ignored me and left me hanging btw I do appreciate the help

Does anyone know of a new Android 4.3 Touchwiz ROM? 4.3 has recently been released on the GT-I9505 and I have been wondering if anyone has implemented this into their ROMs yet. I'll probably just flash a Loki patch if it isn't already loki'd.
Anyone have a suggestion or idea? Comment below!

I have already tried flashing the VisionX II on my ATT MF3 S4 with no luck. ROM tries to flash and returns success but progress bar never fills. I flashed the Knootz kernel with no help there either. Upon re-boot, phone passes thru Safestrap and then black screen and goes no further. Like to know if anyone has been able to flash the new VisionX v4.3 and what I did wrong if anything.

Did you flash a loki patch? Remember that it's made for the I9505 and not the I337
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
You don't need to flash loki if you flash the att ktoonz kernel. I did not use safe strap so I cannot answer that question but with twrp I was able to successfully flash vision I I. This rom is amazing and really fast. If you can I suggest you give it a shot.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
I've done so, but with Philz touch. It didn't work though, as it just gave me a black screen after it booted, and then otherwise just kept rebooting without even continuing with a boot animation. I did flash Loki doki, but do you think it would make a difference if I were to flash the AT&T kernel itself?
Sent from my GT-I9505G using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
All I did was factory reset then flashed the rom and then flashed the ktoonz att kernel. Then wiped cache and dalvik and rebooted. Works perfectly...you don't need to mess with loki if you flash an att kernel as they already have it.

Ah yeah. I've actually done so before I read this message and I have it running on my phone right now. I want to get mobile data to work though, and so far it's not going anywhere. I've even given it the right APN, but I guess it's just not showing up when I turn it on. Have you had problems/solutions towards this?

Yes I have mobile data to work. I entered the right apn (ATT PHONE) and then saved it. Also I changed the network mode to lte/wcdma/gsm. I've heard the new audism 4.3 kernel works very well but I have yet to have a problem with ktoonz and have amazing battery life.

Firstly, start here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42320414&postcount=2
The fact that your are running the MF3 bootloader will prevent you from flashing any custom kernels due to the blown qFuse. Your only option as of right now is to root your device either using Kingo or jortex's root exploit. From their your need to install Hashcode's Safestrap Recovery and go from there with TouchWiz based ROM's for MF3.

Thats correct no custom kernels witch means no overclocking,I think with rom toolbox you can change the voltages.

just asking to see if there's any last hope for it but whats LOKI? ive heard about it in the past. Ive seen on KT's Kernel thread it would work on TW but im guessing it wont work for me being the qfuse issue.
Also if none of these are an option whats the point anymore to root? my old S3 was amazing and i loved flashing new things on it but it seems so locked down now to where the only real benefit of rooting is bloatware removal.

There is a lot of information about "LOKI" and "Rooting" in the General, Development, and Original Development sections.
This phone frustrates the **** out of me. So its rooted and all that with safestrap and when I flash a TW rom all it says is go to slot one and ceeate that and wipe the phone and install and when I do that and reboot all I get os a black screen with a blue led at the top

Use the MF3 Odin files, go back to stock and try again. Are you positive you didn't accidentally flash your TouchWiz ROM to the stock slot? Also... was what ROM was it?
I tried StockUp MJ6 4.3 TW rom. When id flash id do tue wipe it says in the instructions and then go and create rom slot 1 and install to that and then reboot to no avail. Ill have to try the stock ODIN when I get home

Flight5 flashed well and nlKTs kernel didnt w9rk like I figured. It does seem abit faster but as far as benchmark scores its the same. FYI to anyone reading this if you want an S4 and want the non MF3 go to RadioShack and buy your phone. At our store we got 12 of the good S4s in stock

Hey guys, well I'm back in action! After dumping my S4 a few months ago, I am getting another one tonight. Ever since I saw the 4.3 update on my gf's S4, I saw that things have smoothed out and things are the way they should be!
Long story short, I want to see if the one I'm getting can be rooted. It is on 4.2.2 and the baseband is I3373CUFCMF3. Am I good to root it? I've been out of the S4 game for a while, so I don't know. If I can root it, can I run 4.3?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
I'd try to get a MDL one so you could just flash a 4.3 custom ron
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
Most, if not all current S4's will have MF3 firmware preinstalled. I doubt any store would have MDL firmware. Those devices would have had to be sitting there since early summer.

Yes, with MF3 you can root. You can then install safestrap and do some roms.
However if you take the 4.3 update you lose the ability to safestrap and use some roms, but you should still be able to root. I am not 100% as I just kept mf3 and put a 4.2.2 rom on it.
Ok, thanks for the responses. Can I flash any ROM with Safestrap or just some? Can I flash a custom 4.3 ROM for example?
Thanks!
You cannot install anything that's not touchwiz and anything above 4.2.2

Your very limited with roms using safestrap. Even then, the ones that work, might not work all the way. If you had MDL, you could use any rom if you flash loki-doki.
Just ask if they have one with MDL firmware. Doesn't hurt to ask, right?
Thanks for the responses guys! I will see if I can get a hold of a MDL phone.

Get a device that isn't as locked down as the s4 or note 3. Maybe nexus 5? Unless you can live with safestrap or just root. Which I can. If your a ROM flashaholic than stay away.
