[Q] need noob help on s4 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello,
I'm new here, I own an S4 with Kitkat 4.2.2 update. I was on the verge of selling it off due to boring UI and bettery issues until someone suggested to try rooting.
So I need to know from scratch how can I make my phone exciting and fast.
I know nothing about rooting and all high level stuff u guys talk about.
Pls help me guys! (

Hi im new and... :)

hello im new to all this android moding but I come from flashing nokia phone. I would like to know if there is a ROM that looks like samsung original? No cosmetic mods... All I want is speed speed speed. Someone help me
1. Wrong section
2. If you want speed, stock firmware is as good as it gets imho. All these other "roms" are just deodexed variants which doesn't give you speed improvement just more theming options.
3. What you want is a good custom kernel. I'd recommend trasig's kernel. Been using it for a month now and its very stable.
right now im running
2.2
i9000bujp4
karnel- 2.6.32.9 root
froyo.bujp6
+ lag fix but my phone still lags in the apps menu
I wanna update to the latest version but dont know how (kies not working). So roms dont give speed? only karnels do? I also need slovenian language
Like i said considering we're dealing with closed source and all these roms based on same firmware, deodexing,zipaligning...etc won't give you as noticable a difference as will a different kernel
In ur case ur looking for a ext4 kernel. May i suggest voodoo.
Hello, I've been using darky's ROM since the beginning, and I must say that his 8.0 edition ( gingerbread ) is a hell of a fast ROM indeed ! Cosmetics is reduced to just the gingerbread theme, which is nice and gives a good feeling on SGS.
Hope I helped you with this one
Hi I'm new and ignorant.
Hi I'm new and cant read.
Hi I'm new and [ . . . . . .].

<sarcasm>Great attitude bro </sarcasm>
A bit of reading and searching was too much huh? Cripes.
Yes, everyone starts out as a noob. Just most of us choose to follow the well-outline procedures that the experts have already made very clear.

You're WRONG. Newbs must exist. Noobs must not. And newbs should do non-newbs the favor of reading things like the FAQ before asking for help on the most basic things. We spend a lot of time making things as easy as possible for newbs.
Hint. Look in general section under sticky. Stock ROM's listed.
The modified ROMs are in Dev section.
I recommend spikes. Installation is in spikes 1st post. But better to flash stock on first attempt.
P.s. if u fight fire with fire u all waste time. If your gonna answer a thread then a negative response takes just as long as a positive response.

Hi!
I've decided to not open a new topic for this, since I have the exact same firmware as the OP.
The problem is, I can't find any information on this specific firmware, and I don't know if it's any good, or will I have to replace it... I'm hoping this won't be necessary tho, because this is my first Android device, and I'd like to start with simpler stuff, like rooting...
Which also brings me to my next problem: it says [email protected], and I have no idea what that means... Did I get a rooted version? Also, the 3-button combo for accesing download and recovery modes is working, and if I understood correctly, you are supposed to unlock it by yourself...
So, I'm hoping someone can enlighten me, and perhaps give me some pointers on how to play around with this amazing device...
Thanks!
No man.... newbs like me exists... i have low post count cuz i search and ask in specific threads before making a thread without reading first.
I know this community since 7/2009 and registered last year to participate instead of just leeching.
You can use google instead of forum search if you dont like it
On google enter:
[search term] site:http://forum.xda-developers.com
You cant even imagine how many answers you will find quietly.
Reading is better than asking same sh!t 100 times
Well, the problem is i dont know what to look for exactly, and its even tougher with the language barrier...
As posted.
Hint. Look in general section under sticky.

Have you even read the rules?
Let me answer that; No.
1. Post right thread in right sub-category. This one belongs in Q&A.
2. POsting about 'The best rom' is a direct hit on one of XDA's rules, there's also a sticky thread on Q&A which says that these kinds of threads are forbidden
Donnie is gonna report this soon, you might wanna kiss it goodbye.

Best ROM threads are not allowed. Please try them for yourself.
