First of all i would like to tell you that i am a newbie
I rooted my Samsung Galaxy S 4 (SGH-i337) Having info as follows --
Firmware Version : 4.3
Baseband Version: I337UCUFNB1
Kernel Version: 3.4.0- 1921628 [email protected] #1
Build Number: JSS15J.I337UCUEMK2
Now after rooting my wifi is not working when I switch it on its shows error and turn back off. If someone could please help me get my wifi back without unrooting or bricking my device I would really appreciate it. Please remember I am a newbie please talk English. I found tons of ways to solve the Wi-Fi problem but cannot find the PDA file to flash using Odin if anyone could find that file for me for my specific phone I would be more than happy or if anyone has an easier method to get the Wi=Fi working again please let me know thanks!

I must be terribly impatient or not understanding what I'm doing, probably both actually but I cannot for the life of me find a working method for loading a custom rom on my phone. Could someone PLEASE point me to a resource that will work for my phone? Info provided below:
Samsung Galaxy Note 3
Provider: Verizon wireless - USA
Quoted info from settings > About Phone:
Model number: SM-N900V
Android version: 4.4.2
Baseband version: N900VVRUCNC4
Kernel version: 3.4.0 [email protected] #1 MON April 28 16:42:37 KST 2014
Build number: KOT49H.N900VVRUCNC4
Hardware version: N900V.07
Security software version: MDF v1.0 release 2
I have root access thanks to towelroot
I have supersu as well. Every guide I've found for different rooms has been busy. I've only tried safestrap methods because I know I can switch back to the stock rom slot and have a working phone again. Im weary of methods that wipe out the stock rom as I really don't want to end up with an unbootable brick.
Ive tried cyanogenmod, and a TouchWiz room who name I can't think of at them moment. Both roms simply booted to a black/blank screen.
I really like the simplicity of cyanogenmod and it is my preference but I'm open to others. Can anyone please advise me on my options please, I've about reached my words end here. Why must these companies make it so hard to make the devices we pay hundreds of dollars look/act/be the way WE want them to be as the now owning consumer?!?
Thank you for your time, help, and guidance, I have nothing but respect for all the developers in this community, wish I understood the system better so I could be of more help as well.

Do we need NC 2 and how would we install it?

I'm in a similar sitch. I have rooted my phone after the NC4 assault using towelroot. Note to those who plan to use it: there are some hijacks out there. Don't go to towelroot.net for example. I have downloaded a couple of safestrap apk files and have been reading up on how to install safestrap. Once installed, then what? I think I need to install the NC 2 kernel but how? What's a kernel anyway? How is flashing a kernel different from flashing a rom? How is an android kernel different from a linux kernel? I can't see a way to run linux commands anyway...
Hi guys! There's a ton of guides on the forums that answer your questions. If you need help you are best of posting the exact steps you took up to that point and at what point you are stuck. Wikipedia also has a ton of information on the basic computer science stuff (what's a kernel? etc...)
Good luck
Hi, everytime I try to update I get this message.
your device as been modified. Software updates are not available.
I had a wile back rooted this Samsung S4, so im guessing is the knox sotware that is doing this.
I heard that we can force the update using Odin, Just dont know how.
Can it be done?
If any one can please help would be appreciated.

This is the international S4 forum. Everything you need to know can be found at the link above. But to answer your question, yes, the update can be applied using Odin.

1. Try to match your baseband with your build number (Flashing the latest android 4.4.2 firmware)
2. Take a look this GUIDE.
so i have a samsung galaxy s4 SGH-i337 version 5.0.1 (AT&T). i tried to root it and ended up soft bricking it,
did some research found a way to unbrick it. once it was unbricked the wifi and data didnt work and i noticed
the version downgraded to 4.3. i fixed the APN settings and got my data to work. so then i used safe root to root my
phone successfuly but the wifi still doesnt turn on. i've tried multiple things nothing worked even soft bricked my phone again
had to repeat that whole thing once before if someone can please help me fix my wifi i would greatly appreciate it thanks.
some more info on my phone.
baseband version: i337ucufni1
kernel version: 3.4.0-1921628

so which one fixs the wifi?
I'm ok to admit, I'm an ultra noob to android roms/rooting/ etc. and am asking for any help.
I've taken a few days and been plowing through videos and threads beyond what I can now feel comfortable and/or comprehend.
My end goal is to get native Hotspot on my phone, so my son can use his Tab 4 for wifi access.
Here are my stats of what I'm currently running on my phone :
Software version
L720VPUFNG2
Hardware version
L720.08
Model number
SPH-720
Android version
4.4.2
Baseband version
L720VPUFNG2
Kernerl Version
3.4.0-2162929
Build number
KOT49H.L720VPUFNG2
Non-Rooted
So far, I believe I need to root and then proceed with replacing the services.jar and services.odex files.
I am clueless which Root program I should use for starters (odin, cf auto, kingo, cryanogenmod, motochopper).
Then also if anyone per-2016 has had success with Hotspot wifi on their Sprint S4, same version as I have.
Thanks of course in advance for any assistance or guidance.
