I believe it depends on what rom ur in some devs remove the ots option n put their own or just remove it completely.. I personally have mine on boost to n am running negalite rom.. N haven't had any updates...
I understand that you wo t get updates being in the ROM already but if I wanted to flash a ROM that was 4.4.4 or 4.3. It would depend is what u r saying...

How did you flash a Verizon rom? What are the troubles that you ran into?
You can flash any carriers roms. Just have to use a sprint kernel. Think the the only s4 roms u cant flash is the i9500. I flashed omega from i9505 s4 n boots fine. You will most likely have data issues and im not sure how to fix. Also there was an update 2 the international s4, not really sure how that plays into compatibility for us.

you're still going to have data issues. I read something about modifying apn, but I don't personally have experience with that.

OK I just tried flashing and I ran into a boot loop. I'm gonna try again later today if anyone wants to try it out and share there outcomes here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2306650
I'm thinking trying a different kernel but we'll see...
Try a touchwiz kernel and make sure the rom doesn't have a modem file. It will say in the description of the ROM.

What if I wanted to flash the Miui V5 Rom in the link, how would I do that just flash an AOSP kernel after the rom?
Then just flash a aosp kernel. After applying the ROM.

As long as you wipe data and cache after flashing the ROM then flash a sph l720 aosp kernel.

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.
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda app-developers app
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.

Wait for indie to update his new version.
U may want to try other ROMs that's available on I9500.
I'm currently thinking of flashing this rom on my S4: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2520418
I current am rooted with the MF3 update and have Safestrap installed. My phone is unlocked with RegionLockAway. Will this rom work fine on my setup with Safestrap? What are the steps I need to take to install this?
It is a Verizon ROM... There would need to be some serious tweaking/mods done if I am not mistaken.
Sent from my SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I flashed this rom earlier and it worked for me. Im currently on MF3 with Safestrap installed. Just be sure to download the ATT Compatibility pack from the rom's thread and MF3 kernel modules included in the Safestrap thread and flash them after installing the rom.

Didn't mean to thank this he's not looking to downgrade and root, he wants to flash back to stock. Just use the same firmware package as whatever you were on.

In the same process of downgrading you can stay on stock MK2 OR NB1.
