[Q] So how do i get back?

Hi XDAians.
Guys i own a Samsung galaxy S4-I9505 and few months ago i tried root it and some how i did it successfully and later i unrooted it again i am using back the same stupid touchwiz but the problem i am facing is,
1.My phone doesnt gets automatic updates.(i have to do it manually by downloading firmware from samfirmware and then installing it through Odin)
2.Knox cant be installed.
3.The camera app sucks to the coreeeee auto focus sucks every time i get a blued image. out of 5 i only get one clear image
3.After my 4.4.2 update, i cant hide apps. And the touchwiz is so much bad compared to 4.3 .
So my question is is there any way i can fix those above problems?
Now i am willing to root it back again hence i wanted to know which custom rom comes with all the system apps and software(such as wifi direct etc etc) pre installed as touchwiz and which lets me free do play with it!!!
last time i installed CM i didnt have wifi at all and it was really a mess to get that (actually i didnt ) so unfortunately had to get back to touchwiz .
Guys please link me to full root tutorials and how to install custom rom too.

[Q] No GPS lock possible on Lollipop

Hey everybody,
I've been having an issue lately. Since I upgraded to Android Lollipop, I have not been able to get a GPS lock anymore. This issue only applies when I'm on a Lollipop ROM. As soon as I flash back to a kitkat TW ROM, everything works again. When I go back to a Lollipop ROM, the issue returns again.. No GPS lock. This is not ROM specific, but just related to Lollipop in my experience.
I have not seen anyone else yet with this issue, so I find this very strange. I'm currently on the latest version of GPE5 by @Danvdh if this helps. But like I mentioned before, the issue exists on every Lollipop ROM.
If someone could please help me, this would be very much appreciated! Thanks!

Anyone? ?
Me Gusta!

It seems to be a Lollipop thing.
I have the same issue with my Find 7 since installing Lollipop.

[Q] Switched back to touchwiz from cyanogenmod - radios arent working - advice?

Hi all,
I've switched back to Touchwiz for the camera after having cyanogenmod on the phone.
Now it seems like a catastrophe - WIFI won't work with some roms (specifically touchwiz, and now touchwiz wont even boot) while making and receiving calls and texts won't work with lolipop or with cyanogenmod.
I've wiped totally in recovery before installing anything to ensure no issues, but I am at my wits end, about to buy an iPhone tomorrow because I need a reliable phone for business.
Any advice on what I might do? I have the I337M version (rogers)

If all else fails, Odin back to stock.
Give the lollipop Google play edition rom a try, it's been rock solid for me and many others. I will say that for whatever reason, I was never able to get WiFi working in the hyperdrive rom (since rls19) I tried changing modems and what not, but switching to a different rom worked workout issue. Try golden eye rom or one of the others from iB.

Did you wipe your /system/ before re-installing the rom? You just need a full wipe (data, cache and system), then install a rom that you like on top of that.

Thanks , just reinstalled the rom
Everything working fine now

Help updating my SM-N9005 Note 3?

Hi there,
I need a little help with updating my Note3. Ill start off with what I have here. I acquired a used Note 3 from a member of the Canadian Olympic Curling Team. It came from the last winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. She was given it to her from Samsung. Its model number is SM-N9005. Currently I am running Android Version 4.3, and its Baseband# is N9005XXUDMJ7, and Build# is JSS15J.N9005XXUDMK2. I am using it in Manitoba, Canada on the MTS Mobilty Network, and its been working great!
It is rooted and I have the rom backed up to SD card using either CWM/TWRP, I can't remember which one. I'd like to update from Jellybean to the newest Android which I believe is Marsmallow, and would like to know how I can do this, and still keep my installed apps? I mean, Would I have to re-install all my installed apps? This would really suck, as i have a ton of apps. Also, all my texts and contacts. I know the contacts would be reinstalled from my google account, and I believe I can back up my texts, but would they still work after updating the OS? (I remember my apple days this was usually an issue!) I am using GoSMS Pro, and BBM for texting.
Can I simply "unroot" my phone and then update via the OTA option, then "re-root" it? Also, I have an awesome theme installed that changed all my icons to awesome looking full color icons, which i really like it is "The best theme ever 4 note 3" by SirM.
Can someone please tell me what it would take to update to the newest Android OS for me, so that I can keep my apps and all my settings intact, or even if that's possible?
I hope this isnt too much of a stupid request, but I don't have the time to wade through all the different forums/subforums for all the info im looking for, as there are so many diffenet types of Note 3's out there it seems! (Att/Verizon/Etc!)
Thanks for now, and I really appreciate any help.
Ginnz.
----Added later.
Ok, now here is probably a real stupid question, but I just seen an awesome Rom which i'd love to try, its a Note 5 port which promises to run real smooth on the Note3. Now, I am wondering if its as easy as just simply flashing it? or do I need to update to the newest Android version first, then flashing? And, would it work on my version of phone? This is the Rom I am referring to... And there is mention of "Aroma"? What is Aroma? Is it included with this Rom? or does it need to be installed first? Damn, I Know, Im so far behind with all this stuff. I Just been so busy with work, Family, work (Job #2) and all that jazz.... I hope these questions arn't too stupid! I just need a push in the right direction (s)
([Rom][5.1.1][N5 Port][19.02.2016] [Multi-DPI] Phronesis Rom v6 Feature Rich)
Thanks again in advance!
GiNNz!

Aroma is just an installer with multiple user options .
That is an excellent rom by the way .

Flash official 5.0.
Or flash the modem/baseband as in the thread. Then flash twrp 2.8.7.0. Followed by the rom you mentioned.

I install a fresh firmware 5.0, I root it with Kingo Root, flash it with twrp 2.8.7.0
I try to install Phronesis v6 and not working. is coming in loop.
In past with Phronesis v3 it works fine.
Where is my mistake?

Are you wiping the system, data, and cache before installing the rom?
