Only question is where to get the firmware 4.1.2?

Hi just to say : i readed on xda (don't know where) you can downgrade bootloader : install via odin a 4.1 official rom without bootloader, update via OTA to 4.2, so you got 4.2 bootloader (OTA can change the bootloader)

Depending on how you installed the rom and your phone.
Did you flash the modem via odin.

Hi,
I have a noob question regarding the installation of this rom.
I am running on ANE2 Stock ROOTED, what is the procedure in installing this rom?

Change themes
I know it may be a silly question, and might be because I missed something during set-up., but how do you choose one of the twlauncher themes? Can it be done through the UI at all or can you only choose a theme at install time? If that's the case are there any screenshots or descriptions of the themes available?
I followed to instructions on the main post to install latest version of NeatROM (latest Samsung and 0x0 knox method). Only place I deviated is I had to downgrade my kernel before so I could get root without tripping knox.
Again I apologise if I missed something obvious.

I scan downloads on my laptop with avast and malwarebytes after downloading with a strict firewall software and never seen any alerts . I'd suggest it's a false positive.
Maybe someone in the know will tell us what the file is for and if it's something that can be binned without affecting functionality.

tnx
tnx for knox 0x0.

Goldeneye rom for gti9500 - which Zip file?
Sorry to ask this, but when trying to flash the Goldeneye rom on my wife's S4 GT i9500 International, it seems the zip file is for the Gti9505 zip instead . if you select either link for gti9500 or gti9595 on the Goldeneye XDA thread, it takes you to the same file page with the rom zip for both phones. I have a gt i9500 and downloaded the GE-XXUGNK4-49.2.zip as I assumed it was an update from GE-XXUGNK4-49, but when I try to flash it on my GT i9500 it asks which variant to choose from with US/Canada carriers or the gt i9505. Am I correct in assuming I therefore need to download the GE-XXUGNK4-49 version, or is it the GE-XXUGNK4-48.zip that I need for the GT i9500?
Your help would be great.

New here, have lurked for ages before finally pulling the trigger and doing away with stock.
After an insane amount of confused reading, I somehow managed to root and get goldeneye on my canadian S4.
But it looks like I don't get 4g or LTE anymore. In reading and searching I see many references to a canadian LTE fix, (im on Fido) but I just can't find the dang link.
Can someone point me in the right direction ? Thanks

What about cf auto root?

The CF Auto Root for the 4.4.2 ROM worked for me, you should be able to use that. Keep in mind Xposed Framework won't work on stock Samsung Lollipop ROMs though.

I tried using xposed on kslite rim and it was stuck in boot loop so that had to go. But it don't mind too much I don't think

is it worth it?
Should I stick with KitKat or take the plunge and go Lollipop? :fingers-crossed:

LOLLIPOP
lollipop !!! do the update totally worth it! (aside from the extra 3gb the OS needs) but so far sound battery and performance better that kit kat

the only downside i've noticed for now (no factory reset yet) some lag while gaming
beside that... better than kk
also Antutu benchmark gives me a lower score (from 47xxx to 22xxx)
what i think : dalvik to art switch?

Can some one Help on 2 thing.
1st I used to change the name on Builpro from klevl to klteatt and I get at 4glte icon now I can't get it.
2nd. Some one no how to add Spanish language to this model. On 4.4.2 I use to have claro puerto rico VOB file. Now I can get Spanish on lolipop.
Thanks.

That "guide" someone posted in the thread installs malware. Do not ever run a random exe.

Hi, the thread I was referred to was for 4.4.2. I am afraid of bricking my phone so I haven't tried it yet. The root file is what actually worries me on its applicability for lollipop. I hope someone tries it.
