Is there anyone out there who can provide me with a stock kernel for my note 2 android 4.3? I want to unroot and my stock rom 4.3 is still on there. Is there any way to just flash kernel 4.3 over and unroot?
All the unroot tuts on here are for android 4.1 and most of the software links arent even working anymore. Can i also flash the stock android 4.1 rom on my device with stock kernel 4.1 and then upgrade over the air again?
Try Toolkit from mskippin

If you are going to flash custom ROM; use a toolkit to Root it; flash custom recovery of your choice. Then copy custom ROM to ur phone; go to recovery and flash it. You don't need to downgrade your boot loader.

Does this mean we can downgrade from 4.3 to 4.2.2 custom ROM?
I'm not having a good time with 4.3 stock rooted and custom kernel and thinking about going back to CM 10.1.2. All I need to do is flashing the custom ROM in recovery?

Yes you will be fine. Before PA 4.3 rom was released, I was using Latest 4.3 bootloader with 4.2.2. I am going to revert to 4.2 as well. I noticed 4.3 battery is really good but sometime touchscreen doesnt response / volume buttons doesnt work.

for unresponsive screen go to 'developer options', 'hardware accelerated options', 'disable HW overlays' and select 'always use gpu for screen compositing'. Works for me but setting doesn't seem to stick on reboots.
^^ oh okay thanks but I am already back to the good old 4.2.2 .

Hi I´m quite new to this and did recently flash my second custom rom. I went from CM10.1 (4.2.2) back to stock image, and flashed
[AOSP]Official 4.3- S4 Google Edition- Finaly v2.0 - Feel the Experience of Nexus. The phone is running hot and I´m kind of dissapointed with the
lack of tweaks in Google Edition. So I´d like to go back to CM
So if I understand you right I can from 4.3 flash my stock image (from TWRP) which was on 4.2.2? Without worrying.
Did you make a nandroid backup when you were stock? That should be the easiest way to get back to stock. If you didn't then you will need to use odin to flash back to stock.

Is there way to install a custom ROM like PACman, if you upgraded to android 4.3?
Flash a custom recovery if you haven't already, then install the rom like you did in 4.2.

what you've got to do is search for ROMs updated for 4.3
Your easiest options are to get Goo Manager & Rom Manager from the Play Store..real user friendly..won't steer you wrong with things updated for 4.3
As it stands now..one reliable source doesn't have any official PacMan roms specifically for 4.3 so at the moment you may want to seek alternatives..
http://goo.im/devs/pacman/mako -- Don't try to flash this to get 4.3 Just showing you the source..currently still 4.2.2
currently i am on 4.3 custom rom, if i decide to go with 4.4 can i downgrade with issues
if your talking about TW. we don't know since there is no 4.4 touch wiz. as far as 4.4 asop you can go back.

it all depends on your boot loader
if you rooted at 4.2.2 and installed a 4.3 rom you can still go back to a 4.2.2 stock
if your 4.3 when you rooted there is no going back to 4.2.2
for years, the first thing i did when i got a new phone was root it and install a new ROM.
Now things seem to be different for me.
i immediately rooted my phone but regret not researching this phone and Android 4.3 and 4.4 better before rooting.
i noticed a lot of the roms require that you flash the leaked KitKat. i tried to do this but it fails every time. So i figured i will just stick to what i have now and wait until the official OTA update.
Well that can't be done since i rooted my phone.
Now for my questions.
Do i need KitKat before installing CarbonROM and if not can i install this instead of the leaked ROM as a prerequisite to other 4.4 based ROMs?
Is it plausible, and perhaps better, to wait for an official KitKat firmware to be downloadable from XDA?
Is there anyway i can get OTA to work again on my rooted device?
Is it worth going all the way back to stock ROM and unrooted device just for OTA release of KitKat?
Is that even possible now that KNOX has been tripped?
Thanks in advance.
Any CM based rom still requires JELLY BEAN'S Boot loader.. so if you want CM/CARBON/AOSB etc then do not upgrade to 4.4.2

Hi folks!
I'm one of the the few lucky ones still being on the pre-KNOX 4.2.2, buildnumber JDQ39.I9505XXUBMGA. I own the international (swedish unbranded) version of the I9505. At the moment i have Root and a custom recovery installed, stock TouchWiz.
Now I want to discuss the pros and cons of WHETHER staying on this version, installing a custom ROM and a custom recovery OR updating to Jelly Bean 4.3 and only having the possibility to root without voiding my warranty.
I'm wondering:
Are there are any improvements in performance and stability with Jelly Bean 4.3?
Is there a stable custom ROM?
Is there a stable custom ROM that uses all the possibilties on the SGS4?
The reasons why I want to have ROOT is the annoying inability to move app data to the SD card. I don't want to void warranty.
Every answer/idea/opinion is welcome!

Hi, first of all, you lucky guy can flash every custom ROM 4.3 and also 4.4.2 when no new bootloader is included.:good:
the Samsung based ROMS are fully working. All you have to do is to flash a ROM of your choice and update your baseband. It should have the same base as the ROM. So if the ROM is based on a NB8 firmware, you have to use a NB8 baseband. But flash only the modem.bin file, not the non-hlos file.
for working wifi use a custom kernel like KT or similar.
The performance and the batterylife are in my opinion much better in 4.3 and 4.4.2.
it depends on your using.
just try a little bit. As long as you not update you bootloader, you're on the safe side.

How do I know that a custom ROM doesn't contain the new bootloader? Does the bootloader come with the kernel? If so, which kernel versions are safe? Which custom ROM without new kernel is most stable?
Do 4.3 and 4.4 run on the old kernel? Are there significant improvements in the original kernel coming with 4.3?
After reading about 4.4 I absolutely do not want to update to KitKat.
Many questions but the amount of kernels and ROMs is simply overpowering for someone who does not have the time to read every post on XDA every day.
Seeing forward to your answers.
I'm pre knox and have flashed various rims including the Google Edition roms. Currently I'm on KitKat TW rom using the pre rooted debloated version. You'll have to update to the kitkat kernel but this is included in the rom. All custom roms that are flashable via recovery will not have the new bootloader. Knox is tied into the bootloader. Why don't you want to install kitkat? It's better overall with the new kitkat features.
I run KT kernel it's a fantastic kernel in my opinion and has many tweaks.

Thank you for your answer. I read about problems accessing the SD card in KitKat. Or is this not a problem with custom ROMs? I want to be able to move app data to SD card.
