yeah i tried installing by internal and external didnt work cant get past samsung logo
same here maybe security settings and youtube will working next build sucks about the no wifi calling
Exactly what I been referring to just because it doesn't affect me, I still think about other members that will screw get screwed over with this.....
I know what he was talking about. Only difference between now and before is when you screw up your phone you cant go crying to Samsung.
I dont know why people are making such a big deal about it really. If you want to do crap Tmo's insurance covers "lost", pay for it. If you dont want to pay and want your warranty dont do crap. Cant go buy a Ford F250 take the motor out throw a cummins in it, shatter the read diff and go "Ford I want to make a warranty claim. This cummins diesel I put it in it shattered your rear differential. Please replace my truck"
End of the day, whats the issue? Everyones mad they cant lie.

You are comparing apples and oranges. We have always been able to revert to full stock, to appease the carrier and the insurance. Truth is, as long as you don't overclock constantly, there is ZERO physical damage done to my phone by flashing and rooting. It's ridiculous paranoia from the carrier, insurance or Samsung to think otherwise. Knox is there not for our protection, to discourage many of us from swaying from TW. Samsung wants what Apple has, to fully surround the customer, software and hardware. But, this is android, and Android is freedom. I'm paying extra to be on T-mobile 's jump program. If I do no physical damage what so ever, what should it matter if I decide to root and flash? I should be able to do an insurance claim and trade in my phone, regardless if I rooted or flashed. They sure have no problem taking my money every month.

I read the official explanation. IMHO, there should be two versions, one with KNOX and one without. Why force the entire user base to use it? Hell, I'll even pay extra not to have it. I've yet to hear a coherent argument why rooting or flashing should be considered a void to my warranty. Samsung and the carrier says it voids warranty but never really explain why.

There's is. It's called the i9505G.
Easy. Gives you the ability to alter what they warranty. It's not rocket science. If you want to find out, I can gladly give you a zip to flash that'll write a bunch of zeros at the end of all your partitions and render your phone useless.
If you were Samsung or a carrier would you like to lose money because some idiot flashed something that screwed up his phone? I bet you wouldn't.
Price to pay if you want to customize stuff.

I want to thank you for the time devoted into making this cwm/twrp flashable, rom and sharing it as quickly as you did with the community. It works well on my Att I337 S4 (along with the loki doki fix). Everything is functioning, except for the known issues (wifi, security settings). Battery life is good as well. Awaiting future releases. :thumbup:

Great news! Would love to get a version of it & cook it directly into the rom [if you don't mind). Then I can probably get init.d & data/app working perfectly too.

i know MobileTechVideos used to do the unbrickable mod to a few phones, but looks like they never took it as far as the newer models in the galaxy line of phones. Sure would be nice though :good:

SGS4-KK-442-tw-tmo-01122014_1252.zip (5 views, 3 downloads)8Thread cleaned of off topic banter.
Couple points to make over what was just deleted from this thread.
1 - Do not forget that you all are members here, and with membership, you do not have the right to discuss things direspectfully, nor is this a free speech site. Which leads to #2
2 - Discussion of banned members, and their work, to include screenshots of sai members and or work, is not allowed. Don't like that? Too bad, those are the rules.
3 - Posting of other peoples roms and or works in threads is not cool, not is it classy or resepectful.
4 - Continuing a conversation after XDA staff ahs warned users to stop is also not cool, I have cleaned up this thread, but will be visiting it routinely now, glad to meet you all.
Troll at your own peril from here on out, and to some, check your PM's - you have messages waiting from me...there will be no more warnings in here...7
Cause the WiFi drivers are not loading, the same reason WiFi dont work
USB tethering does work...
and Thanks for posting this - it made me test WiFi hotspot w/ my kernel - and it failed.. gonna find out why
---------- Post added at 12:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 PM ----------
missed this one
its a i9505g kernel with a custom defconfig file
95% of the changes were in defconfig
4% in ramdisk
(when compared to the i9505g "magical unicorn" kernel i released)
then 1% - a few small changes to the rom itself (few XML and config files)
all flashable - so no decompiling jar files or anything
