Well...
Which 4.4.4 Custom rom do you want to flash..??
Check the firnware on which the ROM is based..you ought to have the same firmware..
Never flash anything for i9505 on i9500 or i9506.
I9505 Roms are specific for i9505
I9500 ROMS are specific fora I9500
Have a backup. If anything goes wrong you can always restore the old rom without any data loss.
Always follow the steps in the OP. NEVER TRY ANYTHING BY YOURSELF, because devs do know better than us.
Things you need:
The custom ROM
A custom recovery
The same firmware as is it in the rom.
Just flash the rom by following steps in the Original Thread of the rom..

There are many roms availabe mate..you have to select what suits you..like the S5 looking roms or the AOSP or AICP..Check in the GALAXY S4 I9500 Android Developement...
Nothing india or usa specific..
You ought to have the firmware..just that..
Like if a roms is based on XXUGNG8 then flash XXUGNG8 official firmware, Install recovery and flash the zip of the ROM. Just dont flash a network specific rom..

Use k2wl or Balliboxer firmware XXAMD6 in the Development section. All are not hotfile. That is for Southeast Asia incl. Philippines.

What is your problem with hotfile? If your problem is slow internet connection any other download server will not improve download speed. Try to use a download manager so that you can leave the download running while sleeping at night. Difficult to provide a server because of the size of the file.

Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505 4.4 KitKat Help

Hello guys this is my first thread on this forum and let me make this straight forward what I want.
I want a stock 4.4 Kitkat or a CyanogenMod 11. However I want a tutorial where I can do this via ODIN, instead of using ClockWorkMod.
If that is possible can you link me with it or just copy and paste the tutorial.
Phone Details:
Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9505
Region: XXUEMI8
Firmware: 4.3 Jellybean (Official)
Rooted: Yes (Chainfire Auto Root)
Unlocked: Yes
BTW, I have basic knowledge about mods and rooting on a S4.

You can't flash a custom rom via Odin.. It must be flashed via recovery..
Good luck
Ps: There's no stock 4.4 rom.. Did you mean AOSP ?

If you are on 4.3 baseband and don't mind the possibility of voiding warranty then
here is the direct download link for cf-autorooter by chainfire for your phone:
http://download.chainfire.eu/316/CF-...xx-gti9505.zip
Unzip into empty folder and use Odin which is in the zip to flash the TAR.MD5 file.
Good luck!

Hmm.. Gonna think about that autorooter..
I more confident in manually rooting like what I did at my old phone.. maybe I'll just try the site.
Yeah, I have always used the cf-autoroot with odin, fast simple and clean
It will trip the knox vw thingy, but I didnt mind.

unroot galaxy s3 neo

Hi friends, I'm a beginner of this forum.
I am using samsung s3 neo i9300i device running in android 4.4.4. The baseband version is i9300ixxuboi1.
On last month I rooted this device with TWRP recovery file. Now I want to unroot my device. For that purpose, I searched the samsung web but I couldn't find the actual baseband version Stock Rom file. If I flash other s3 neo's baseband Firmware, instead of exact version, is it occur any damage?
Give solution. .... Help me. ......
Do you mean you want original firmware from sammobile? Probably the firmware is updated that's why you won't get the exact version. Just look for a firmware for your model and for you region and flash.

I have tried so many firmwares with different regions and basebands. And i haven't have any problem.
Just try to download a firmware for your region ( for your country or for neighbourhood countries ) and flash it through odin.

[q] samsung galaxy s4 sgh-i337 (assistance)

Hello to the community,
I need your help desperately cause i ruined my phone. Recently changed rom from 4.2.2 to 4.3 but it collapses all the time. Wifi dont open,keyboard collapse,etc.Phone dont allow me return to factory defaults and i cant install a new rom. I dont know how to find the right kernel and i messed up with odin. Please help me. My phone details are:
DEVICE NAME: SAMSUNG-SGH-I337
ANDROID VERSION:4.3
BASEBAND VERSION: I337UCUEMK2
KERNEL VERSION: 3.4.0-1921628 KST 2013
BUILD NUMBER: JSS15J.I337....
Go to sammobile.com, type in your phone model and download a stock ROM from there, and flash it with Odin.
If the phone is running a stock 4.3 bootloader, you may not be able to flash any stock roms from sammobile.com.
The forum for the s4 for AT&T is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-att
User has posted in the correct forum here
