AT&T Update?

I read that the ATT GS4 was getting a new update (http://www.androidauthority.com/update-rolling-out-for-atts-galaxy-s4-241248/) but I still havent gotten it. Any body else not getting it? When will I get it?

Your about 2 weeks too late. Anyway, why would anyone want it? It completely takes away root, and loki custom recovery.

If you really want it, install Kies on your pc, connect your phone and pc via USB and let it patch it. Like was said above, it will unroot your phone... however, if you're not rooted, no worries.

Hey there guys, I'm relatively new to all this rooting and such. I have a rooted ATT s4. I have titanium backup (I just don't know too much about Roms, flashing, and custom recoveries). Anyway, as I saw the update, I went and started the update. Meanwhile updating, I came across a page saying it broke root...it kept updating though so I frantically thought of things I could do to stop it and simply used titanium backup to freeze the att updater app. If I unfreeze it, it will resume downloading from where it left off. I have downloaded folder mount, set CPU, and I don't think I've flashed anything...I don't even know what it means...but yeah, I really envy the better quality of the photo taking and HDR recording as well as the better memory usage and lag removed with the update...is there a way to keep root and have the updated firmware...keep in mind I'm still a noon so please use non geeky terms...thanks and any help is appreciated...(is there a way to cancel the ATT update progress so I don't have to keep the app frozen through titanium backup?) Thanks again

here is geek terms for you, you should have read in the many threads about this, you are now stuck on the update, no going back, there is a root method in the works right now, maybe released already, keep searching the general thread, there is something on the root. Sorry, but giving it to you straight, don't take it wrong. Always READ before you even look at doing something to your phone, I CAN NOT STRESS how important that is.
Good luck.
Thanks you.

Well, i figure you mean no harm, but your style of writing killed a part of me... My phone is still rooted though, as I said. Furthermore, it ISNT updated. I froze the updater before it fully processed. Thanks

In fact, this rom has features that I don't like. It says it removes carrier name and things like that. Some people experienced no wifi and no data. Is there not such a thing as just the new update with root. Minus all the custom features.

If you follow instructions, and check the OP add ons none of what you say will happen. Very fast,stable ROM. Learn what to do by reading..hell watch some YouTube videos...its not that difficult..if you don't like the ROM you can just nandroid back.

Paranoid Android 3.99 with Franco Kernel

I'm Using Paranoid Android 3.99 Android 4.3
Can Anybody please provide step-by-step instructions for installing franco kernel?

Since PA uses the JWR kernel so just go to Franco's and download the r178 version (not the one with a JSS).
It says it doesnt break root so just to he sure go to Developer options then turn root on for ADB and Apps.
Flash the kernel in recovery and wipe Cache + Dalvik Cache and ur good to go

U can't change the settings of the kernel unless you have the kernel app made by franco. Its a paid app by Franco himself
U can also get a free one that does exactly the same though... Named as "Trickster MOD kernel" something.
Franco doesnt have OC/UC so you would need the color calibration (i think)
U can find all of them here... My best choice is the "Halfbreed" by "Molesarecoming"

Read Franco's thread. He doesn't have GPU CPU overclock settings etc.
U will only need the display calibration since the clock speeds governers are just stock. Stability is his only priority.

Its a problem caused by pa 3.99 1 use the linaro version of Franco (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45592370) for now or stay on stock. Next time search pa or Franco thread and you'd find the answer

But when I run a test using Root checker it says that my phone doesn't have a proper root access. So I wonder that if I wanna flash custom ROMS etc. Will I be able to do it ? Thanks!

When you use data connection you use 3G after every "sesion" I dont know how to call that xd switch to 2G. No 2G/3G, only 2G. Signal is much better, and use lesser battery. After all of this ypu will have good battery life.

Great job
Hey -- Great job. I had absolutely no issues loading the ROM with CWM and then doing the initial startup configuration (including voicemail). After that, all my apps installed like a breeze (even the Z Launcher TouchWiz replacement). Now, the WiFi tether works like a dream and it's actually faster to use than the stock rom.
My only wish is that I could make Mercury the default browser because even Chrome is a little touchy on sites like XDA and Reddit. Anyway -- great job on this port and on how solid it is.

Did you have the same issue on CM11? I did. The only fix I found was to flash a Touchwiz rom and connect the GPS once booted up. Then, leaving the GPS on, flash back to CM. So far the fix has stuck through many reboots.

GPS Working
Hey thannks very much for the help. The method using sourceforge files worked perfectly.. Evrything is working on this rom until i bounce up on something else..

I don't know much about the process of a flashed phone as my Sprint S4 is flashed to Boost Mobile... I can't get this Ron to work properly although I haven't done an internal wipe... unless Phils Recovery factory wipe for a new Rom does that... but if not would an internal wipe affect the flash at all?

I tried TWRP as well with the same results.... when i goto phone settings the Carrier doesnt allow me to edit and the Voicemail setting is dimmed and cannot get into it at all.. and i have pushed the APN but still nothing.. since i am running a flashed to Boost phone... i should still get 3g but dont work

What's the path to delete and add the new apn file?? Everything works except data.

What version of TWRP are you using, if you are using and old one update it that maybe is the root cause of your problems.

I got the same version of TWRP and was install from ODIN.
1. the ROM is been download from another device or from S4.
is the answers is S4 you need to download from a netbook laptop or PC. you maybe got a corrupted download.

Found the apn conf.xml file.
Es Explorer won't let me erase original file nether replace it with the one downloaded. Root explorer let's me erase one and replace it but phone doesn't boot up. So I have to re flash this rom so I can use the phone. So my question is how do I change the permision? Is this done at the pop up where depending what you check, under shows this numbers? 0644 or 7200
