Hi,
I rooted my phone the other day everything went well, but since I rooted I have not been able to connect to my WI-FI. The other thing is too I am unable to connect to Samsung Kies 3 now. Driver are all installed right. The one thing I did do is I reset it and that didn’t help.
Hope I have enough info I’m new to all this.
My Phone Info:
Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-I337
Version 4.4.4
Baseband: I337UCFNJ4
Thanks,
RS

Before rooting your phone, you had to Odin the NC1 kernel. Did you Odin the NJ4 kernel after you rooted?
You may want to Odin it again, just to be safe.
You can grab it from here.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...to-root-i337ucufnj4-4-4-4-11-13-2014-t2939553

Hi-and thank you for responding.
Are you saying to re-root my phone? Because my phone is rooted. The information provided in the link, is the procedure I followed. I did have a problem when I first tried flashing the NC1, but I download the file again and it worked, other than that, everting is worked fine except for the Wi-Fi and Samsung Kies. I did read where it was posted, to re-flash the NC4 kernel again, which I didn’t try, didn’t make much sense seeing that it is rooted. I also have FX, Root Checker and SuperSU installed.
Should I try re-flashing the NJ4 again?
Or try rooting again? If so do I have to un-root my phone?
Thank you for your quick response.

The directions to root NJ4 are
1. Odin the NC1 kernel
2. Root with towelroot
3. Odin the NJ4 kernel.
My suggestion is to complete the root process by doing step 3. Once you do that, wifi will work again.

you messed up your Pit file, no biggie just go to the development section and download the Pit file and MJE tar. once you have those flash using odin 3.09, put Pit in the pit section and mje in the AP section, hit start and profit. Easiest root method is kingo
can i download the mj7+pit file and flash those? Or it must be MJE? Also could I have the links for the correct file, kinda freaking out and do not want to odin any other bad files .
Thanks!

It has to be MJE. You can't downgrade. Follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2483380
And don't use that root method. It only worked on the mi9. The only way to root MJE is with kingo. Google it. Good luck!
Sorry to jump in this thread, but ill be in the same boat unless someone can help out. I am rooted mj9, is there anyway to upgrade to mje other than odin? I have unistalled frameworks, wanam, safestrap, everything unfroze, but still cannot get update to install?
Should i just follow the above?
Thanks

If the ota is not working, odin to MJ7 (you may need to factory reset also), install the ota, then use kingo to root.
Odin
Odin is the easiest way to do all this. If your having troubles Odin back to stock, there is a file to do that, it's 2 gigs. Once your stock again, use Kingo to root. There is also a better superuser.apk than what comes with Kingo, just google it, then flash that after your rooted.
There are no shortcuts, do it the way you see in this thread or you could have issues.

Ok, if that is the best option, should i just simply odin to MJE instead of MJ7? or better to stick to the MJ7 that im currently on?

Personally, I used Odin to get back to stock MJ7, took the update, rooted with Kingo, installed chainfires superuser, then installed safestrap and flashed the ROM I use back on my stock slot. I would definitely replace the superuser app that comes with Kingo though, just to be cautious. Hope this helps.

Okay so I've searched the forums and haven't found the answer to what I'm looking for quite yet. I'm not new to rooting, but new to the Galaxy Note 3. I just recently started getting prompted for the update to KK4.4.2 (I have the Verizon model and we all know how long they take to push out updates.) So I decided to flash the leaked de-oxed NC2 rom and after follow the instructions from here. I reboot and get stuck at a black screen. It boots no further and I have to pull the battery to get back to recovery.
Am I missing something, another step maybe? Is this an old process?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Did you also flash the firmware package in odin?

Yes I also flashed the firmware through Odin. Does it matter which version of Odin I used?
Odin doesn't matter.
Root 4.3
Install safe strap.
Now you can update to the rooted 4.4 through odin.

Actually it looks as if this was caused by Odin 3.09. It doesn't seem to like the bootloader file for NC2 and for some reason doesn't load the entire boot portion of the file. Flashed with Odin 3.07 and booted no problem. Thanks for the input though.

that is the only way to obtain root currently. there is no way to root a clean install of 5.0.1. if you want root, you will have to root while on a kit kat build then update to 5.0.1

If you have the I337m then you should be able to use CF-Auto Root, though I don't know if it's been updated for lollipop on your specific variant.
For the i337m you can do this. Either use cf auto root or you can first install a custom recovery and then flash SuperSu from the recovery.

CF-Auto-Root works with the SGH-i337M (Bell) on Android 4 and 5.
Just don't go in Recovery Mode afterwards otherwise it'll break your installation and render your device unusable.

so the chain link of 4.4.2 works on 5.0
and what do you mean going into recovery mod will break my phone
all i do is root and i previously rooted my phone and have gone in recover mod to check my knox flag since when cant you go into recovery mode ?
I'm just warning you. I don't know why. I can't use my phone since I booted in recovery mode after running a rooted stock fw for a while. We have the same device.
sounds as if you have an error either in the absence of a custom recovery or the kernal. Pull the battery, wait 30 seconds at least. Go into download mode, use Odin to reflash the stock Bell OC4 firmware but leave auto-boot unchecked -- wait until Odin goes green and says pass -- this can be quite a wait. Pull the battery. Restart the phone. Don't be surprised if it goes into stock recovery on first boot -- let hte phone do its thing to get itself sorted. Set the phone up in stock mode first.
Oh! Thanks! As it turns out, it wasn't the CF-Auto-Root which ****ed it up. I actually tried to install CyanogenMod the day after and it failed. I thought it failed cleanly and nothing was pushed to my phone, but I was wrong. So, have fun, OP!
I recently upgraded today from 4.4.2 to 5.0 OC4 and kept root using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...0-keeproot-t3068546/post59791648#post59791648
However, I had no Idea it would be so hard (impossible?) to get xposed back. Is there any way in which I could install xposed ARM without having a custom recovery on my verizon G900V running lollipop?
I also read an article on another website that said you can flash safestrap with odin, go into safestrap, install anything necessary, and then reflash current ROM? I am not TOO knowledgable with all of this, however I have found my way around all this enough to ensure myself root and all needed features. Any help or information would be amazing.
Article: http://www.droidforums.net/threads/galaxy-s5-safestrap-after-the-lollipop-update.279867/
I was considering flashing the xposed ARM file with flashfire, however I read someone else was stuck in a bootloop who tried this. Would this not work? Is there any method? I was also looking into flash gordon which lets you flash .zip files without requiring custom recovery. Thanks!
EDIT: Just did some more research and found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-att/general/nc1-flasher-odin-to-safestrap-t3082620
It seems as if its possible, however this thread is for the OC3 version, while I flashed the OC4... Anyone out there done anything like this before, or knows how to provide the needed steps? Thanks again.
Go to the xposed thread and read any comment at all. It doesn't work on touchwiz based lollipop architecture. PERIOD. you didn't need a new thread in this forum to learn that...
I see, is there some way that I could downgrade. I've been looking into that for awhile now to go back to my 4.4.2 but there's a ton of methods and I am not sure which is required for my device. I canno't seem to find a specific method for my g900v s5. Thanks for you're reply, and I hope I can downgrade.

You can go up and down as often as you like. I would Odin the NCG tar from the link below and reroot.
You probably still have safestrap. You could try this first. Go to download mode and Odin the NE9 kernel. When your phone starts booting up you should see the safestrap option to boot into recovery. Boot into recovery, install a rooted NE9 ROM of your choice. Boot back into download mode via safestrap and Odin the NE9 firmware. Let your phone boot all the way up and you should be good to go. Use NCG kernels and firmware-roms if you would rather be on NGC.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...ment/stock-collection-kernels-modems-t2842069
If safestrap doesn't show up, Odin the full NCG tar file and reroot your phone.
Thanks so much for your help, the only problem is I never installed safestrap on my phone. So I do not currently have safe strap, or any custom recovery. So i can just use the odin method then, correct?

Yes, sir. That would be correct. Since you are rooted, there is an app called Flashfire you could use that doesn't even require a computer but if you are familiar with Odin that is a good way to go as well.

Next select zip-ota, navigate to your ROM. Leave auto mount unchecked.
Select firmware again. This time check boot, recovery, modem, and firmware. Flashfire will ask if you want them in separate zips. Click yes
Now select wipe. Check everything but SD card.
Now arrange everything in this order

Ur amazing. I'll try it and let you know. Thanks so much for your help.
Thanks so much! It worked perfectly! I had a problem initially after installing towelroot and xposed and got an error when rebooting the phone called "Process system isn't responding". My phone kept freezing and was super slow because of this. I believe it was due to me restoring contacts from titanium backup. I restored the contacts system app as a whole. I didn't realize that at the time however, and just system restored my phone again, and did everything the same yet didn't restore my contacts, and the message is now gone. I am not running root with xposed on 4.4.2. Your amazing!
As the Title states I have been trying to flash to Lollipop using the thread Update to lollipop and keep root using Flashfire app. I have downloaded and followed the procedure (yes I am rooted and confirmed with RootBasic) with it failing.
What happens is I load the files in order stated per the guide hit the lightning bolt, does the reboot and then gives error no command and then sits at stock flash update where you can either reboot, flash file or few other choices. I have tried numerous times with each time same result. What is going wrong? As I stated on am on MK2 firmware with ATT update frozen so not sure why this is. When put in download mode I confirm Knox 0 and Offical software with it having 0x30 for bootloader. Any suggestions or should I ODIN update but with what?

We just discovered this morning on the Vz S4 that FF does not function properly on their MK2(4.2) firmware which is likely also the issue here. You will first need to update to KitKat using the following file then root with towel root before updating to 5.0: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358548937
Before I proceed to KitKat with file linked to is there a guide to properly performing this and then rooting? I will update from MK2 to NB 1 then I need to root, then do the FlashFire and Lollipop undate. I see the guide to use ODIN but then I will have to root I also have not used towel root either so any guide would be awesome. This should not change KNOX either correct (although I guess it does not matter since I am long out of warranty)?
I want to have a clear understanding of procedure so I don't brick the phone! I have not used ODIN before since I haven't really done much rooting other than when I first got the replacement phone last year
I'd suggest [GUIDE]Odin to Stock, Updating, Rooting, and Installing Safestrap by guut13, and of course [How-To] Update to I337_OC3 - 5.0.1 and KeepRoot (4/7/2015) by muniz_ri for rooted Lollipop. Look in the I337 General forum for both.
Thanks Creepyncrawly and muniz_ri for both of your help it was easy to update from MK2 for this noob!
Ok I followed the guide and did update to stock nb1 and rooted, used towel root and then used flashfire to Lollipop and all seems to be working (I still am in process of setting phone up but it is running lollipop).
Since this is oc3 rooted is there anything else I have to do such as freeze att update? Anything else I should do right away?
