thanks for help
anyone ? bump bump
where did you buy that phone?
outside of u.s.
only want to how to install these roms i mentioned earlier
is there special downgrade instructions ?
only rom manager backup enough ?
First of all i would like to tell you that i am a newbie
I rooted my Samsung Galaxy S 4 (SGH-i337) Having info as follows --
Firmware Version : 4.3
Baseband Version: I337UCUFNB1
Kernel Version: 3.4.0- 1921628 [email protected] #1
Build Number: JSS15J.I337UCUEMK2
Now after rooting my wifi is not working when I switch it on its shows error and turn back off. If someone could please help me get my wifi back without unrooting or bricking my device I would really appreciate it. Please remember I am a newbie please talk English. I found tons of ways to solve the Wi-Fi problem but cannot find the PDA file to flash using Odin if anyone could find that file for me for my specific phone I would be more than happy or if anyone has an easier method to get the Wi=Fi working again please let me know thanks!
I must be terribly impatient or not understanding what I'm doing, probably both actually but I cannot for the life of me find a working method for loading a custom rom on my phone. Could someone PLEASE point me to a resource that will work for my phone? Info provided below:
Samsung Galaxy Note 3
Provider: Verizon wireless - USA
Quoted info from settings > About Phone:
Model number: SM-N900V
Android version: 4.4.2
Baseband version: N900VVRUCNC4
Kernel version: 3.4.0 [email protected] #1 MON April 28 16:42:37 KST 2014
Build number: KOT49H.N900VVRUCNC4
Hardware version: N900V.07
Security software version: MDF v1.0 release 2
I have root access thanks to towelroot
I have supersu as well. Every guide I've found for different rooms has been busy. I've only tried safestrap methods because I know I can switch back to the stock rom slot and have a working phone again. Im weary of methods that wipe out the stock rom as I really don't want to end up with an unbootable brick.
Ive tried cyanogenmod, and a TouchWiz room who name I can't think of at them moment. Both roms simply booted to a black/blank screen.
I really like the simplicity of cyanogenmod and it is my preference but I'm open to others. Can anyone please advise me on my options please, I've about reached my words end here. Why must these companies make it so hard to make the devices we pay hundreds of dollars look/act/be the way WE want them to be as the now owning consumer?!?
Thank you for your time, help, and guidance, I have nothing but respect for all the developers in this community, wish I understood the system better so I could be of more help as well.

Do we need NC 2 and how would we install it?

I'm in a similar sitch. I have rooted my phone after the NC4 assault using towelroot. Note to those who plan to use it: there are some hijacks out there. Don't go to towelroot.net for example. I have downloaded a couple of safestrap apk files and have been reading up on how to install safestrap. Once installed, then what? I think I need to install the NC 2 kernel but how? What's a kernel anyway? How is flashing a kernel different from flashing a rom? How is an android kernel different from a linux kernel? I can't see a way to run linux commands anyway...
Hi guys! There's a ton of guides on the forums that answer your questions. If you need help you are best of posting the exact steps you took up to that point and at what point you are stuck. Wikipedia also has a ton of information on the basic computer science stuff (what's a kernel? etc...)
Good luck
Hi guys i jave a Sprint SGS4 which i was reading can be unlocked and rooted.
My phone info is as follows:
-------------------------------
Software version
L720VPUFNAE
Hardware version
L720.08
Android version
4.4.2
Baseband version
L720VPUFNAE
Kernel version
3.4.0-481102
Build number
KOT49H.L720VPUFNAE
Secure boot status
Type: Samsung
Security software version
MDF v1.0 release 2
Model number
SPH-L720
ICCID
unknown
Device status
Official
---------------------------------
So my questions are as follows:
1- how can i SIM unlock my US Sprint SGS4? If possible can you provide a step by step or link to a guide?
2- which 1 must be done 1st, unlocking or rooting, or it doesnt matter?
3- is it possible and how can i root my phone in a safe way? is there a guide to return back to stock?
4- what or which is the best and safest/stable custom recovery?
If you guys need more info about the phone feel free to ask, i will reply as soon as i see the question. Cause i have been looking all over the net for this info/guide but could find anything conclusive cause it all point to a firmware my phone doesnt have so i dont know what to do and theres an OS update pending that i dont want to install yet which i think is 4.4.4 at the least.
Thanks in advanced, and have a nice day!
Hope to hear answers and guides and links soon.
