Does anyone know of any available roms for the verizon sm337v tablet? I have had no issue with rooting or recovery, but can not find any roms. Thank you in advance!
What recovery?

TWRP
doesnt the verizon devices have locked bootloaders?
Shoot I was mistaken. I was thinking of an s5 I did. I have stock recovery; just rooted.

Can I install the I-9505 firmware on a MF3 rooted? How?
Thanks,

No, because there is no recovery method exploit for those on MF3 firmware at the moment. Track the progress here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43890414

Not happening. You can't install a custom recovery, nor ROM. Please don't try to install a custom recovery anyway, it will destroy your factory recovery and you will not be able to get it back until the devs here come up with a solution (which could be a long time). Your absolutely stuck with rooted MF3, no exceptions at this time that me or anyone else on this forum is aware of.
Not no, but NO, and if you figure a way, android is looking to hire you....
ok, thanks for all
I can't figure out how to do this at all. I know it's online somewhere, but for the life if me I can't figure out where. Someone please help!

You have to sell your phone and buy an i9505. Then you can install TWRP or CWM on your Galaxy S 4.
I believe the ATT version of the s4 has a locked bootloader so flashing TWRP or CWM is not possible atm.

Is there any way to perform a nandroid-style backup/restore then?
I'd like to flash the latest stock ROM but would like a return path to what I currently have now if things go badly.
I would check out the Verizon s4 forum to confirm whether your bootloader is locked. If it is locked, there's very little you can install in terms of ROMs. Not sure about TWRP or CWM.

Is There Anybody To Tell Me That How Can I Check My Bootloader Status (Locked/Unlocked)

It's easy, if you have updated your phone to a newer version of Android, then your BL is locked.
NB1 4.4.2 is My Official ROM. I Updated It To NJ4 4.4.4 Using Android System Recovery And Then I Updated It 5.0.1 Lollipop Via Same Way.
I Think My Bootloader Is Locked.
Bootloader on LP is definitely locked.
So What Should I Do "audit13"
Once the bootloader is locked, you will need to use safestrap to flash files. Also, you'll be limited to tw-based custom ROMs.

I Have Soled My Galaxy S4 AT&T i337.
Now I'm Looking For Galaxy Note 3.
So What Model Number I Should Buy Which Can Be Rooted Easily And Has Unlocked Bootloader.
I believe the att version of note 3 also has a locked bootloader. Get the T-Mobile version or the Canadian version.

Hi Dude.
Whats Up?
I Have Bought Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM-9005)
I Have Rooted It But I Want To Downgrade It To It's Official ROM And Than Update It Step By Step After Rooting My Device.
Whats Your Opineon About.
All you need to run OTA updates is use the unroot option from the root program and have a stock recovery. OTA updates will not work on a rooted system.
The quickest way to update your phone to the latest ROM would be to flash the lastest stock ROM from sammobile and then check for OTA updates.

I am still unclear on what exactly we can/can't do with the G900V [locked bootloader OG5/OK3].
Can we use Clockwork Recovery? Can we use xposed? Can we flash Marshmellow ROMs?
Can we use the other ROM slots?
Or do all the same rules that applied to pre-OG5/OK3 root users who had rooted on 4.x still apply to us?

Yes to xposed, no to the rest. It's the same deal, except you can only run lollipop TW roms. No rom slots, safestrap only.
Awesome! Thank you for the clarification!
A bit offtopic, I was under impression the heartrate bug was related to the ROM, but I just experienced it on OptimalROM. Can I fix it now that I have root, or is there a fix already available
I've been reading the forums for days since I got my S7 (flat, AT&T, 930A) but I can't figure out the story with alternative ROMs, flashing firmwares, ODIN, etc. I'm coming from a G3 where I rooted, installed TWRP, then flashed ROMs, but this is not the process for the S7. So how does it work? What is Odin? What are the firmwares for?
Am I correct in that you use Odin on your computer to flash a firmware to the phone? And these firmwares -- they are stock ROMs without carrier bloat? And then rooting is a separate process?
Thanks... :highfive:
The bootloader is locked currently. You cannot flash any roms right now

Odin is a tool used to flash Roms but it can only flash Samsung official roms. The bootloader is locked still so you cannot flash unofficial roms

Thanks. So could someone flash the firmware from the international variant on their AT&T or Verizon variant?

No because the two variants uses two different chipsets.
Thanks!
No problem. Just reply if you need anything else

So is it possible for someone to take the stock AT&T (or any other variant) firmware and modify it, such as remove bloatware or something else more extreme -- essentially creating a somewhat customized ROM? Or is it in a format that can't be modified... maybe the Odin software checks for the integrity before flashing?

Hey all.
I've a question. In GT-i9500, is there the need to unlock bootloader as in Motorola devices before flashing custom ROMs. Or it comes with it's bootloader pre-unlocked?
Would be very glad on your response
Thank You!

in I9500 we can update bootloader and go back to old without problems and we can flash roms without need to unlock
Verizon and AT&T devices usually have locked bootloaders. Everything else should be unlocked.

Then we should first of all unlock bootloader before flashing roms?
Unless the S4 is a US model sold by AT&T or Verizon, which yours isn't, the bootloader will be unlocked. That means being able to update the bootloader, radio, and installing custom ROMs, as previously stated. Keep in mind the following: Samsung does not use fastboot, thus any commands you could use on a Motorola device will not work on a Samsung device. You will have to use Odin.

I-9500 came with factory unlocked bootloader.
If your phone really is i-9500 as you said,
install the custom recovery like TWPR or CWM via odin and
flash the custom rom of your choice via the custom recovery.

Ok thanks
l have a question if my i9500 says secure download enabled does that mean its bootloader locked +++
Asked and answered already in this thread. Unless your S4 is an SGH-I337 or SCH-I545 (AT&T and Verizon respectively) your bootloader will not be locked.
