Stock Kernel GT-I9500 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been looking for the stock kernel for my Galaxy S4 GT-I9500. I flashed a custom kernel thinking about "higher scores" in benchmark tests but it didn't work and now I'm getting lower scores... Even with the CPU overclocked to 2.0 GHz... But I can't find the stock kernel.
I have the stock firmware (thanks to SAMMOBILE) on my laptop but I am trying to avoid the master reset. I'm uploading a screenshot of my current firmware so that it would be easier.
I hope someone can help me and if this is a repeated thread; well sorry about that.
THANKS! :good:

Please open the tar.md5 file of your rom with WinRAR and extract the boot.img file and send to me i'll convert it to you as an Odin flashable pack
EDIT : Here is the link for the stock kernel extracted from my rom zip and converted to an Odin flashable pack It goes on the AP tab of odin no need to wipe anything https://mega.co.nz/#!ZZ5HQSLK!5VSAHAQW8_n2upHObILy7lLNa2coEFI-KRdwibC7WIA

Its a great method for switching kernel but there in anpther problem. Perseus kernel stops android logger so when you return to stock kernel you will get bunch of fc's. I didnt manage to take care of it. I always install a rom when switched to stock kernel.

I´ll probably install Omega ROM, I actually did it but lost 3G signal, so I went back to stock (rooted)

Consultation on ICS

Hi I have a query I can install a modified rom gt my N7000 note before installing a stock (so gingerbreak pass a cooked rom ICS? I would like a stock but all are in hot file server and that gives mme many problems. If could do run some risk with kermels? thanks
There are 2 safe "stock" ICS kernel, franco's r3 and SpeedMod's K3-1, or any GB kernel.
So I recommend using a safe kernel to install any ICS rom you want then use franco or speedmod's ics kernel.

There are mirrors posted by user in this thread or others, download from there and proceed on with pc odin. Or flash stock gb throught odin and use kies to update. You will loose root and data
IN PC ODIN DO NOT SELECT repartition or clear efs.

Doesn't matter...what you have to watch is the letter code and released date.. in this case MB5 is the newest.. kernels aren't region specific like modems.. so all I9300 kernels are the same whether it's came from a UB or XX series

Galaxy Grand Stock Kernel

Hi All,
I just extracted the stock kernel (boot.img) from I9082XXUBMJ3_I9082ODDBMJ1_I9082DDUBMJ1 and packed it for cwm flashable zip.
I did this for my own backup purpose.
I was facing MTP issue with Evolution kernel so felt like reverting to stock kernel.
Publishing it for the just reference sake.

If you open the tar file in any zip software you can find the zimage.bin file, that's your kernel
For OTA I guess you have to capture the downloaded ota on your phone. Search on xda to see how to capture ota

N910TUVU1COD6 - Modem - Stock Kernel - Stock Recovery

If you are looking for the Stock Kernel - Stock Recovery or Modem file for the latest Lollipop Update for the TMO Note 4
You can use FLASHIFY to install Kernel or Recovery
You should be able to flash the modem using ODIN 10.6 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2711451
I am not certain about earlier versions of ODIN.
you will find all files here - DOWNLOAD
Stock Rom from Sam Mobile is being uploaded to GOOGLE DRIVE - when it is finished uploading you can access at link above.
Flash in ODIN 10.6
I hope this is helpful
I am not responsible for your actions or your phone.
Not yet considering upgrading to Lollipop as I am not willing to give up Xposed.
Curious though if there could be any benefit or adverse affects in flashing the "Modem" ONLY to KitKat based ROM?
Anyone tried - comments?
modem file is no longer on mediafire. says it's removed.
edit: got it

I totally agree! Fingers crossed that xposed works with TW one day. Yeah, I just flashed the modem file via odin. Works great on KitKat. Tried calls via cellular & WiFi calling, data via LTE & WiFi, tether, and Bluetooth all around. Don't know about battery life yet or signal (cell tower practically in my backyard) but will report any negatives here if found. Oh btw, use cp button for modem on odin. And you we can always flash back to the old MK7 version if there any issues.... Enjoy!

The OP loaded them on Google Drive now.
Do we still need install modem file, boot.img and stock kernel even after I flash (through ODIN) the firmware from sammobile? Sorry, I have been installing custom ROMs and trying to get back to stock to see how it works. I thought just flashing firmware would be enough (and I thought this will take care of latest model, boot.img), am I wrong?
No need to flash these if you did the whole deal.

It's possible to have minor improvements through an updated baseband/modem/radio version but nothing miraculous. Sometimes newer versions are worse. Just depends. Mine seems the same so far. We'll see. You can always go back.
