[Q] Flash Stock ROM through ODIN - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am currently running Imperium ROM (Lollipop, V5.0) on my Galaxy S4 i9505.
For those who dont know Imperium LL 5.0 is a stock based Lollipop ROM.
If I flash a stock ROM (original one release by samsung) using ODIN on my device, will that override the Kernel that I have on my device?
Coz the Imperium ROM is using its own kernel (Imperium Kernel).
Thank you.

Yes. If you flash stock rom it will also flash the stock Samsung kernel.

Rom Suggestion & Some Questions

Hello all,
I have a i9505 and, currently I am on stock 4.4.2, with XXUGNG8 baseband. The phone is from Romania, but I live in Greece.
I am to choose from the following ROMS:
Resurrection Lollipop v5.4.0
Omega 41
GOLDENEYE v51
ECHOE v47
Imperium LL v3.1
Eudemony
Currently the most used kernels are AEL, imperium, stock.
I like having a custom kernel (as I used, in my old Galaxy S1). Which of the two(AEL vs imperium) is better?
Also are there any reported issues with 4G while using a custom kernel or 4G has to do with baseband?
Thank you

No rom is better. It's a personal choice. So just try it out.

Seems like you prefer touchwiz roms.
Depends on what you want. I haven't used any of those roms. RR seems to be the most customizable. Echoe was also very popular.

He did reviews on most of the roms here on xda. He is also from Romania. So you can ask him if you have any questions.
If you have issues with 4G then you will probably have to flash the modem. That generally fixes it.
To sum up the process:
I use Odin to flash TWRP, and from TWRP I install the rom's ZIP?
Or should i flash something else instead? Now I am on stock 4.4.2

That's exact the right way. Choose the latest twrp and flash any custom ROM. No matter if it is 442 or 5.0.1 or whatever. It could be possible that you will lose mobile data and/or wifi. In that case update your modem to a version that matches with your ROM.
Here's a guide how to update modems with odin.

NOTE: if you flash twrp or another recovery, your knox counter will be 0x1. But i think you know that already.[emoji2]

I would recommend that you root first so you can backup your apps and data with titanium backup.
This is not really necessary if you don't care about the apps.
Also, don't forget to wipe data, cache and dalvik cache.

[Q] N910G roms/kernels

Hi guys,
I'm slightly confused, currently I'm on the lollipop N910G rom by aukhan, was wondering whether I could flash AEL kernel or echoerom V5, or any other N910F based lollipop rom. I just flashed the emotion kernel and everything is running perfectly.
THanks & Regards

Hey, so you have emotion kernel running with a N910F lollipop rom? From what I heard you can run n910f roms other than you will have no signal/no service.
You can flash F roms but you need a custom kernel for the G to get full functionality back in your phone. There are a few custom kernels out for the G if your still on KK. hopefully they will come through soon with updates for LP.

Is it better to install a custom rom or contunue with the stock rom??

Which rom is the best and most stable and also of latest android version for G900F.
Use a custom ROM that is a debloated version of a stock ROM. That way you will get a genuine stock ROM experience without the crap.

Can this be done coming from stock marshmallow 6.0.1 rom? I'm using g900f btw
Yes you can do with 6.0.1 but for 4.4 there is more customization available... I prefer 4.4 on rooted phone but if you want 6.0.1 you can do with that too..
Please give me a fast link of kitkat for galaxy g900h
All links on the internet are slow or broken
