Hey everyone. I've rooted my phone with towel root as described here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...to-root-i337ucufnj4-4-4-4-11-13-2014-t2939553
I was thinking about cyanogenmod, or pure nexus. Any thoughts? I want to have a nearly pure android experience but still look good without bloatware.
Pure Nexus looked like it fit the description but the method of flashing looked like it might limit my future options.
Thoughts?

Well you won't be able to flash cm. Pure nexus is great but yes also limited with not having a stable Dev for the ROM anymore. I actually flashed GoldFinger shortly after the pn Dev switched phones and I like it a lot. Tons of room for customization since it still has Samsung features (coming from a person that doesn't favor touchwiz). Here's a preview

Cm requires cwm/twrp. These recoveries are only accessible for using of the MDL boot loader, which is the original s4. Upgrades after that are stuck with safe strap and we can't downgrade that far. [emoji24]
Oh wow. So they have an Apple-like situation going on? So I should only look at safestrap roms?

Yep yep. All compatible Roms for us will be in the all things general thread.
So at this point I am wondering is there any roms highly favored over the rest? I'm going to look them all over but I want to hear some thoughts in here.
Also after following that rooting guide, can I simply install safestrap from my phone or do I need to flash the nc1 kernel and reroot again?
@iB4STiD is a pretty favored Dev around here it seems so all of his Roms are a pretty good bet. I haven't tried GoldenEye but I love GoldFinger because it has the touchwiz of s5. Older versions I cant hang with. @Joe-Tech is also great but he has an s5 now but I saw that he's still trying to put out builds, mainly for pure nexus so there's still some hope for that ROM.
And how about safestrap? Can it be installed on rooted nj4 or do you need to install it on nc1 first?
So while on nj4, if thats the base youre on, you'll need to be using the nc1 kernel (flashed with Odin 3.09). Which I assume you're on since you're rooted. While still on the nc1 kernel you'll flash safe strap, v3.75 b01. All of these files are in the Odin to stock thread in general in the spoiler under nj4 rooted with ss. After you have ss installed then you Odin the nj4 kernel back onto the phone.
Is that kernel ver correct?
Hmm I'm not sure. What method did you do for upgrading?
Flashed with odin
Okay if you don't recall flashing the nj4 kernel after successfully rooting on the nc1 kernel, you should still be on it. So download busy box from the play store, and install it from within the app. After make sure you have the ss 3.72 b01 apk on your phone then install that. Then you can put the nj4 kernel back on your phone with Odin. If you don't remember, flash the nc1 kernel anyway in Odin.
After all that you can flash Roms in ss. Make sure you have the nj4 modules and a download of SuperSU (to make sure you dont lose root) on your phone to flash. Only use the stock slot.
Oh and if the ss app disappears from your drawer, just install the app again from your phone.
The guide has you flash back to nj4 after you towelroot in nc1, I'm guessing I need to flash back to nc1 then install that?

No the guide is for if you're on nc1. If you were on nc1 and used Odin to get to nj4, it only sounds like you didn't complete the rest of the steps.
The Odin method has you flash the nj4 ROM and then the nc1 kernel because the nj4 kernel can't be rooted. That's why after you successfully root and get ss, you can flash the nj4 kernel. But before that you have to install SuperSU to make sure you keep root.
I followed the steps to a t and got root with the method I linked to in the original post.
Bootloader readout.
So if you're only without safe strap, get busy box from the play store and install fully. Then the correct version of safe strap just because its stable, and you should be in business to flash compatible Roms.

Hello, I cannot My AT&T Galaxy S4 into recovery mode. According to Boot Manager I have 2 recoveries already installed(CWM and TWRP) but every time I try reboot into recovery I get "Could not do Normal Boot ODIN MODE". I installed one of the recoveries using Goo manager and because it didn't work I tried with boot manager, What am I missing?
Goo Manager doesn't work for the AT&T S4... I did the same thing a while back. You need to use Safestrap for this phone. Look for the right version of it. I'm assuming you are using the stock ROM so find out what software version you are on and download the right version of Safestrap. Good luck.
Btw I forgot to add that you lost your stock recovery so you don't have one anymore. You can take it to a bestbuy and tell them Kies broke your phone and they can reflash it for you, or you can install a custom recovery.

Also, you can't have 2 recoveries installed at "same time". Find your build in settings. If mf3/mk2/nb1 you can't flash custom recoveries. Will also be limited to TW roms. You must use SafeStrap. So, probably need to get very familiar with it before going farther.
Good Luck on it--
Thanks!

Thanks, I'm on MK2. I get this message in Rom manager, should I proceed to install Safestrap?
Sorry for the picture size, don't know how to resize.
You need to use ODIN to flash the original firmware back to your phone (MK2 from the looks of it). Then, install safetrap using the instructions available in the Safestrap thread. Make sure you read the entire thread before you do anything. As already mentioned, only safestrap will work with your phone, not Goo Manager and not ROM Manager.

Is there a way I can flash the stock recovery myself? I'm not in the US. Also, I installed Safestrap without flashing the original firmware and everything seems to be working fine. Should I reflash it anyways? I want to run a custom rom (Hyperdrive RLS15) and I'm new to all of this.Thank you for all your answers!

Its all up to you if you wanna flash a custom ROM. Personally I don't because I have always had bad luck with modding phones and tablets. that's why I only root, but don't let that discourage you. Make sure that you have the correct ROM for your device before installing it.

This may be a dumb question, but I swear I can't find an answer specifically to my situation anywhere, maybe I'm blind or my Google foo is weak today. I just got the phone and of course like a giddy child I updated as soon as I got it -_- seems like I may have screwed myself over though.
Thanks ahead of time for any help someone can give me.
I haven't seen any root methods for Lollipop yet, but what you CAN do is go back to an earlier version, root it there, and flash a 5.0 ROM.
This is the ROM I'm using. Instructions in the OP.

There is a lot terms I don't know in the link. like what is NK2 or OA8? Also do I need to use that rom or can I use a different one? Sorry for the noob questions. I like to be as well informed about this type of stuff before I do it instead of just blindly doing instructions. I just want to make sure this instructions will work for me (I have the right model, it works on lollipop, right build, etc). I just got the phone and it would be very bad for me to brick it.
Thanks for the help so far though.

Another question, if I downgrade by flashing, for example I think this is the file I need:
G900VVRU1ANK2_G900VVZW1ANK2_G900VVRU1ANK2_HOME.tar.zip
Do I also need the NK2 and NGC kernel as well to root? The guide in the link mentioned about mentions downloading the NK2 kernal, but the instructions never mention what to do with it. I am also assuming that
NK2 Full Stock Odin Tar = G900VVRU1ANK2_G900VVZW1ANK2_G900VVRU1ANK2_HOME.tar.zip
Lastly will any of the trip knox?

The top of the post says:
**You can begin the following process from any build/ROM but you must have both root and Safestrap installed before proceeding**
I'm not rooted or have safestrap which means I shouldn't do it? I have successfully downgraded to Android 4.4.4, where should I go from here?

Hi,
I was having bad experiences with stock OTA Lollipop 5.0.1 that ended up resulting in a bootloop. Long story short I decided to flash back to KitKat. Now I flashed back to the stock Verizon firmware G900VVZW1ANK2 using Odin. I went ahead and tried using towelroot, but apparently I guess the Kernel exploit is patched in that Dec build of KitKat, and it will not work (I tried other modstrings no dice).
From reading the following article it seems like the latest version of Kit Kat you can apply towelroot to is the NHA build from August 2014.
http://www.droidviews.com/update-verizon-galaxy-s5-to-android-4-4-4-kitkat-ni2-and-root-it/
http://www.w0lfdroid.com/2014/09/TowelRoot-Samsung-Galaxy-S4-S5-and-Note3-Android-4.4.2-NF-or-Later.html
Can someone please tell me if I am understanding this right? These article talks about rooting an older version of KitKat (NHA), then flashing a higher version of just the rooted kernel (which I assume is not the whole 2 GB Android OS). I assume in order to flash a custom rooted kernel, you need to have root in the first place, so is that why it is done?
So basically should I flash back to NHA, apply towelroot, then flash to NK2 firmware (OTA or by file?), and then flash rooted w0lf kernel? I thought when you flash back to stock firmware it unroots your device?
Or do I need to flash back down to NCG, apply towelroot, then flash to NK2 firmware (OTA or by file?), and then flash rooted w0lf kernel? Has anyone used these custom w0lf kernels, can they be trusted?
Or should I just flash my phone to the NHA build, root it, and leave it there?

First of all, you don't need root to flash kernels or even entire ROMs, since sometimes the best way to achieve rooting is by flashing (cf-root, but not Verizon apparently) for Samsung devices.
I don't understand your problem with lollipop why did you downgrade? What caused the bootloop?
Towelroot vulnerability was patched right before the last relases of Android 4, so it is possibile.
So:
-In order to eventually flash even just the kernel (I can't see the point, you would still be pretty outdated), no, you don't need root, but you do need Odin or custom recovery.
-You may just flash NK2 and root it, which is what's explained in the guide. Again, if you really need that version of android.
-I've never used these w0lf kernels you are talking about, but at this point I would say they are not necessary.
-You could also just keep NHA, your choice, if that's a matter of security updates you are failing anyway, since lollipop is the most advanced. It depends on what you are looking for.
But before you proceed with anything, Verizon stuff is strange. It seriously took bug bounties to root that phone, and I suggest you follow the guide you linked. Anyway, I found evidence of towelroof working for all kitkat versions of Verizon up to Nk2, I guess that the main problem is actually flashing another firmware if required at this point.

There is a bug with the VZW version of Lollipop 5.0.1 right now that randomly affects phones. A VZW employee told me they are trying to get their build of Lollipop 5.10 fixed by September. The bootloop thing wasn't instant after I OTA updated to Lollipop, it was a gradual thing, along with my decreased battery life and back of my phone staying constantly warm. Since I have flashed back to Kit Kat I am no longer having those problems. A few weeks ago I noticed my S5 started randomly rebooting. This started happening more and more until it literally was falling into a bootloop. I tried factory reset+wipe partition cache, but that did not fix it...so that is why I ultimately got rid of Lollipop, just too many problems for me personally.
I have NK2 and towelroot does not work:
yes I tried different modstrings, yes I will stay away from VZW in the future
At this point, if nothing I suggested worked, my best guess is to flash NHA and use towelroot on it. I don't know about those w0lf kernels, you may try and report the results.

That phiztouch thread is for international S4 . If your phone is AT&T S4 SGH-i337, the forum you should be looking is here.
I can not see the image that you post but based on your writing your phone must be bricked since you flash the custom recovery on bootloader locked phone.
To unbrick your phone go here and follow the instructions.
I have not tried Albe95's LolliROM 8.0 official rom on AT&T S4. But somebody tried with SS though. You can read it here. However, he did not mentioned that his phone is AT&T S4 though.
To flash Albe's rom you need to be on lollipop and you can not flash with stock recovery. You have to use SS. I am using Albe rom that made for AT&T S4.

Ohh, I thought your phone was bricked.
Custom recovery could be installed only on the AT&T phone with older bootloader (MDL/MDB). You mentioned that you are on NB1 4.4.2. So your bootloader is locked.
Your option for flashing custom rom is either safestrap or flashfire. You can find the instructions here and here.
If you like to install Albe's rom, the one compatible to your phone is this one.
Is there anything out there that will work flashed with a real recovery rather then just SafeStrap?
With the recent bootloader unlock, I'm curious whats currently available? and what might actually work, will anything we currently have work?
Or does everything have to be customized to work now that we have a true bootloader unlock?
I would like to toast this thread, I should have responded to the post under me, but forgot to check for one.

I'm just got around to trying Jasmine I've been flashing everything under the sun all night, CM13, Dirty Unicorns, and now Jasmine but
a bunch of other stuff also.
I'm having trouble connecting to my 4G LTE data on all of them including Jasmine,
is there some modem firmware I should be flashing over these ROMs after installation?
A couple ROMs did include firmware flashing instructions but I wasn't sure if that was relevant
if coming from OF1 to a unlocked bootloader and then flashing a custom ROM.
Too be fair though its hard to pick out which instructions are relevant when the bootloader
is unlocked and you have a real recovery, and which doesn't apply to us, since the instructions
usually aren't written with that in mind. =/
I've never seen this before with ROMs on other phones.
Anyone having issues with non-Verizon server providers especially MVNO's like Straight Talk (Verizon)?
Thanks for the info that its working for most people and should be working, I wonder
what my issue with it is then.
I've been trying to enter in a custom Access Point Name on a bunch of the ROMs, unfortunately Jasmine's seems to be greyed
out and I can't add a custom one.
Cellular phone calls are working, but data is not though Dirty Unicorns did have 1X data working but that is the best
I've come up with so far.
I just need to deliver something usable on this phone so my uncle can wait for a CM release that mostly works.
We were worried about a update being shipped out on the stock ROM updating over the bootloader unlock,
so we went ahead and tried some of the custom ROMs everyone has have generally positive results with.
After a long time playing around with it I accidentally formatted my TWRP backup of the stock ROM not paying
enough attention, which I should have backed up to a real hard drive.
I originally came to this trying to get hotspot working since he's on a MVNO the stock Verizon Note 3 ROM
won't hotspot or tether, and he has no other options for a little internet access out in the boonies.
Now I'm in a odd situation having to deliver something that works well enough for him to wait it out for a
CM release.
And don't know if flashing stock will lock the bootloader again or if I should flash it with Odin or if I can flash a stock
image with TWRP and where to get one for that.
I would prefer not to have to do that though.

In the Jasmine installation instructions should I be following anything related to the developer edition?
FLASH lk_hltevzw-v6.4.zip in recovery after flashing the Jasmine ROM image?
And in our situation should I be flashing the firmware with Odin after the install as per the Developer Edition instructions?
Or just flashing Jasmine and rebooting?

No disregard the instructions about the kernel if your bootloader is from the 0F1 firmware update. A custom kernel needing to be flashed was only for developer editions because the bootloader was unable to be upgraded without locking the device. Hence tweaks to the kernel were needed to run the rom with no issues. It doesn't apply to you if you unlocked your 0F1 bootloader.

Got any ideas for someone who has successfully flashed Jasmine before but then went
and tried a bunch of ROMs to see if they would work but then when I was done
went back to flash Jasmine and now it infinitely boots never stops after flash?
[Solved]
Weird I cannot get Jasmine to boot without flashing the kernel, but I can get her
to boot with it.
I'm really thinking I need a clean slate on this.

Do a twrp wipe just like in the picture and you should be good to go.
