You will loose root if you flash stock ROM, but it can re-root easy using the same method you did in 1st place.

Using Mobile Odin, you won't have to reroot again. Just download firmware to your internal/external memory, then flash it directly from your phone

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

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.

Use the search... the are thousands of tutorials out there in the forum.
But the easiest way is the most common, root your tablet, install a custom recovery and via the custom recovery flash the custom rom .zip file

Is that the only way? So I have to re-root it and re-flash my other files?

You could reflash using cwm and restoring a data backup to keep data (obvs)

- Reflash the rom you are on.
- Flash a custom recovery
- Flash this script http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/general/scriptknoxout-complete-brutal-knox-t2807172
- Flash cf auto root
That should work.
Ok its working. I am root now. Thanks a lot
