There's little info on what it works on (locked bootloader etc), so why don't you ask Chainfire ?

I don't even think ChainFire knows. Would be really cool if it does work on our Phone though! Would finally remove need for a PC.

Because his thread is gonna get flooded with posts now that his app has made big news! Furthermore, his thread is about ALL devices. This thread is specific to OUR device. Why you being grumpy and hasslin' me?

Haha! I'm not trying to hassle you! I just know that no one knows better than Chainfire about his own app, plus he responds to everyone. This thread would be just conjecture...

I have tested FlashFire on my locked bootloader I337 S4 and my G900T and it works. Still testing but it appears this will be our safestrap replacement.
I will update my update and keeproot thread once testing is complete.
Yes...a possible end to Safestrap and ODIN with PC madness....

Very exciting, and given 5.0 is now widespread and the lack of a recovery solution supporting 5.0 on locked BL devices, I will quickly adopt it into the my threads. Suspect others will also.

Most excellent. So does this mean we have a replacement for SafeStrap or ODIN? Or BOTH!?
it allow to flash g900f rom in g900v with locked bootloader? I need to change rom language

It allows you to flash ROMS without safestrap. Only stock ROMS will work with 900v, due to the locked bootloader.

Your question is a little ambiguous.
1. FlashFire works for more than just TouchWiz
2. The Non-Developer Verizon S5 has a locked bootloader....as such, only TouchWiz ROMs (some people might say TouchWiz = Stock...but that is misleading) will work on the device.

Hi,
I already asked this question in context of another ROM but got no helpful reply.
Now I flashed completely fresh newest stock L720VPUGPI2_L720SPTGPI2_SPR and I still have this prompt.
This was tested on two different carriers, but this screen is the same. Carrier support says it's exclusively phone issue, however I didn't find any SIM-related option in settings.
How to suppress this screen?
what are you trying to do? use it on another carrier? or is it a sprint sim in the phone?

This prompt appears on any (re)boot. I do nothing special.
I've never used Sprint SIM, as I am not in US.
oh, its because its a sprint phone.
You should be able to remove it in this screen. I have a G900P (S5) and its heavily rooted and modified, but should he the same process

Captain Obvious, is it you?
On some of the previous ROMs (AFAIR rooted one) I didn't experience such thing, so I am wondering maybe smb knows necessary setting to disable it.

im sorry, i wasnt trying to be captain obvious stock ROMs have to have that option in it somewhere, im not sure where tho. But the simlock is something that stock ROMs usually have built in. Are you averse to trying a non-stock ROM? Maybe a global ROM?

before we go down that path, is your bootloader unlocked? is TWRP installed? Are you rooted? what is the model of your S4? What baseband are you on?

Youd be surprised... I usually live in the G900P forum, and trust me, youll see all kinds of SMH stuff.
If you have TWRP, your bootloader is ususally unlocked as it required an unlocked bootloader. Locked ones are relegated to things like safestrap. You can flash a ROM made for the international version of your phone, just dont Odin flash something not made specifically for your phone. Have you ever tried a CM11 ROM?

Not on this device. CM11 seems obsolete for me, as it is KitKat-based. Moreover it is dead now and development is halted, so installing it seems not reasonable to me.
Cm doesn't have updates anymore, but its still quite viable
i actually meant CM 13 tho

Just for info: after I switched off SIM lock prompt on Exodus ROM, it disappeared on all ROMs. Even the most odious Sprint stocks. So, bless to you, Exodus
It seems that this setting is hidden somewhere in hardware engineer menu, and unfortunately ROM devs don't bother revealing it to the user via GUI.
I've seen some mixed things about this, and would like some confirmation
I've seen some people say they've gotten it on the Tmobile version, but from what I can see, unless I have the Chinese model, I can't get TWRP, maybe they were using the Exynos version on tmobile, but they identified by tmobile
So is it possible to get xposed on snapdragon US unlocked?

I can provide you an unlocked bootloader for G930A, so then u will be able to root and install custom rom. Root works perfect for me.

Hello all, when I try to downgrade my phone I get an error in odin saying that it has failed and it says 'Auth' and my phone gives an error saying 'sw rev check fail [aboot] fused 11 > binary 4'
Is there a way I can fix this so I can downgrade? I get the same error when trying to go to android 7 as well

Applies to the original and intact firmware on the phone.
The BIT code protects the phone from downgraded versions. You can't do anything about it. You can only downgrade the version with the same BIT code, which is tied to the bootloader.

I see. I’m assuming that’s because it’s a Verizon device? There are tons and tons of other people being able to downgrade online but I don’t think any of theirs are Verizon locked
