Hello, quick question...

Can I still upgrade to the 5.0 android when it comes out even if my S4 is rooted??

Yes, but you might have to install a custom firmware or return to stock without root, or just remove the root and wait for the ota update.

I hope we get it, but I'd say we'll be waiting quite a while but no guarantees either.

Doubts about KNOX and ROOT

Hi all.
1st if all, i want to know whether i can remove this KNOX from my GT-I9500. I got it when i updated to 4.3.
I haven't rooted my phone and I'm using the custom rom.
I've heard that installing KNOX takes away my freedom to root my GS4.
Please help.

Nope. You're stuck with it mate.
You can still root and flash custom ROMS though so don't worry

I want to root my device and flash a new kernel (alpha kernel).

Hi.
It's impossible to downgrade if u are on 4.3 firmware (MJ5 version) plus the new bootloader.
What do i do then? I want to download the Omega rom and do the s tweaks to maxx out my battery life.

I'm afraid you're stuck with it, mate.
Wait for indie to update his new version.
U may want to try other ROMs that's available on I9500.

You need root... You can use an app called Flash Gordon to flash zips but not ROMs... It worked perfectly for me in all cases... You cannot flash ROMs though so plz take note of this.
