I thought I'd create the first thread for the Canadian variant of the M919's similar to the thread on the S3 subsection. This is basically a thread where owners of the M919V can discuss amongsts each other based on our model of the phone.

Yes. My M919V from Wind (using it on Virgin) got an update this morning. MDC to MDJ now. The firmwares posted on samfirmware are the newer ones that includes today's 18 Mb update.
I didn't notice any difference as of yet. The description only read "Stability Improvements".
Me too I got update on videtron .
Guys now that you have open this topic it will nice to have real guide for our version for Rooting andvalso listing whic recovery and Rom work on Videtron / wind version.
I am too scared to brick the phine so I need guide from people who already done it.

Root
Is there any root for our version?
I had my S4 crash on me once so I'm assuming the update fixed that. I'm not sure what caused the crash but it reminded me of the crashes I'd get with AOSP roms on my S3 which shocked me. So far no crash though. TBF, I think that the roots for the TMO work for us as well, however I haven't tried yet either as I'm also waiting for confirmation hehe. :good:
BTW has anyone gotten the unlock for the M919's to work on M919V's? When I dial the code in, it doesnt want to accept it.

I suppose I'll get things rolling a little bit.
1) Root
The motochopper method works. Tested it myself. Even on the newest M919VVLUAMDJ.
Link here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2258633
2) Sim Unlock
Again tested by me, works flawlessly even after flashing stock rom again.
Link here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2285431
3) Recovery
Not tested by me, but others have had success installing TWRP.
Link here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2263947
4) Stock
I flashed stock ROM with Odin after rooting to return back to stock. Everything is just how it is supposed to be.
Let's get going!
Thanks dj_aj, for root we don't need to go back to old firmware ?
I can confirmed I followed yesterday the method posted in the main Galaxy S4 Genreal forum(not T-mobile one) by looking at your links it look like same steps, and my videotron is unlocked I tried Telus sim of a friend it is working http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2282683
For me the only important reason why I want to root and install a custom ROM is to have Pdroid as Apps now days ask for crazy permissions and I want to block that. Is there any Stock Base ROM that include Pdroid or OpenPdroid ? Because otherwise my phone is ultra fast and smooth no need of crazy flashing like I use to do before with my LG lol
Is there anyway to enable LTE on this model? My phone tends to jump to the Rogers partner network every now and then and the data is terribly slow on Rogers 3G compared to Videotrons 4G. Thanks.

Open the phone dialer and press *#2263#.
Then select LTE Band Preference & then LTE All. This will force your phone to only connect to LTE.
To revert back chose Automatic from the service mode.

No that is not necessary. The new firmware is still rootable with motochopper.
Ever since I installed the firmaware update 2 days ago my batter life has tanked. Anyone else having this problem? (noob warning) Is it possible to revert to the previous version (non-rooted device)?

Could you elaborate on how much the battery life has really tanked? Is it down to just a few hours? And how less is it compared to the previous times?
I ask only because even though I initially thought that my battery was draining much quickly on this new firmware, it isn't really so. I'm getting about the same battery life.
Also, at this moment there is no way to downgrade to the previous firmware. The reason being the only stock firmware available to be flashed is the latest one.

You rooted it but you didn't install/tested any ROM ? so basically any T mobile Rom will work ?

You are welcome and no, I did not install any ROMs or custom recoveries. I like the stock touchwiz roms and generally only root to get rid of bloatware & do some minor tweaks.
I assume that all custom roms for the t-mobile sgh-m919 should work on our sgh-m919v variants. But, I have no expertise in this area & if anybody knows more can correct me.
I've updated the main post with links people have posted on here just for good reference. I hope that's okay with the original posters.
Just to confirm that i just rooted my videotron S4 with the link in OP . No need to roll back firmware worked perfectly with latest . Dont forget to turn on unlocked screen as you will be asked to allow root on your phone.

So I dont think its the firmware. Forgive the noobiness. Here's what happened: for two weeks since I bought the phone I have been following the same usage pattern every weekday - full charge with phone off at night, turn on at 8am, an hour of radio streaming and some browsing, gmail syncing sms and sporadic short browsing, repeat hour of streaming/browsing on commute home, some browsing on wifi in the evening. I have all smart features disabled and only syncing my gmail and calendar all in the effort to conserve bbattery.NEway this process would take my battery to about 20% by 11pm. Then last week for 2 consecutive days my battery life plummeted during the day to the point where it was 100% drained by 6pm. I didnt consider whether I had done anything differently on those days but now I know. I tried to send pictures through gmail over the network. With each pic weighing I at approx 3mb gmail was working to send them for hours while draining my battery. It just so happened that this took plafe the day after I installed the upgrade. Lesson here for me is wait for wifi to email pics taken by the fantastic camera on this phone.e
I know there are other threads about international rom on tmobile s4 but none says anything about stock roms.
I flashed stock I9505 Rom on my tmobile galaxy s4 through CWM and worked flawlessly. It is much better than tmobile, bug free, has APP to SD, and is latest Samsung firmware.Everything works including 4G LTE without adding APN. Alos, you can get free hotspot without hacking.
Grab the rom you want from the below link and flash it through TWRP or CWM. Dont need to flash the file through ODIN for wifi fix ( its for international).
When you flash remove KNOX files via Root Explorer or Titanium Backup.

At SamMobile they have GT-I9505 Galaxy S 4 LTE Netherlands T-Mobile that is new that might work for SGH-M919. This is for Developer olny. I dont have SGH-M919 to try it on. If you do its at your own risk. It might hard brick you device and it might not.

Original cm11 thread link -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2584956
Is anyone facing error 920 while installing apps from
play store. Even opera doesn't work properly
when using WiFi on cm11...
And I have noticed that this happens only when using WiFi... Works fine when using data connection
I faced this problem with alpha 1 as well..
I have tried clearing data and cache of play store... Wiped /cache and dalvik cache from cwm, setting up static IP instead of dhcp... But the problem won't go away.
It seems to be WiFi related problem rather than of a specific app..
Any help would be appreciated

I recommend you to do a clean flash of the rom.... Follow these steps:
1.Backup Your Data
2.Wipe /system,/cache,/data from CWM
3.Flash Rom
4.Flash Gapps
OK here s my qstn
Think I installed cm11 alpha 2, and after some days they release say alpha 3 or beta
At that time should not again reflash entire ROM?

The latest one officially available: 15.1.C.2.8
So you are telling me that if I downgrade to some older version (which one?) I only have to restart several times until I get a permission?

No. What I mean is if you still use older version of firmware, it might be just a bug. But because you are using newest firmware, it seems it's not a bug but the bootloader really not unlockable.

Good Rom - But some issues (may be I'm alone)
Hey Dudes,
Sony Xperia M C1905
- Bootloader unlocked
- Rooted
- CWM installed
- CM11 Alpha 2 installed + configured
1. - I had one issue with PICO TTS, I navigate to settings Text in Speech - I got an error message PICO TTS closed.
- Seems that I fixed it with reinstalliing PICO - now it works for me. My Alarmclock speaks now with me (Time, Weather).
2. - I use a Alarmclock that can activate the sleepmode (5 more minutes to sleep before I had to step out of my fantastic bed) with shaking my device - with my Defy+ and CM7 it worked very well - with Xperia M and Stock Rom also, but with Alpha2 CM11 no reaction - no sleepmode - damn I had to step out of my bed early any Problems with G Sensors or Accelerometer?
3. Lockscreen - Pin ist set - if I try to unlock the Phone I had to directly fill in the Pin - I used to first wipe then the Pin Screen appears.
Is this new to CM11 ( I had CM7) or is this normal in Android above the old one?
Thanks to the Developers and also to the Community.

Please, can someone tell, does:
1. Wi-Fi Direct
2. FM Radio (stock Effem or Spirit FM)
3. Photosphere (may be not installed by default: use this)

And does navbar landscape issue and visual glitches was fixed in Alpha 2?

On my side non of CM roms support NFC so far so i canot use MyWallet either.
I need to use stock. So i'm on Stock moded roms after Knox 0x1 and root - My Wallet works fine.
I have noticed that in the absence of Cm and AOSP based ROM development there doesn't seem to be a huge difference in many of the ROM developed here.....
Has anyone any input on the best Rom for AT&T or the ROM that atleast mentions AT&T? I'm not sure that it really matters but it seems that most of the development mentions various carriers but almost never mentions AT&T

Probably the best rom for ATT is going to be BadBoyz as it is based on the US unlocked rom. With any of the roms based on WWE (401) I don't think call forwarding or VOLTE works right now.

You may be very right --- in the last 24 hrs I have done fresh installs of both LD and Viper and both were acting strangely -- with the LD install most recently this AM having my phone go to H+ and wouldn't go back to LTE for some reason

I've been on LeeDROID as well.. no issues. The 4G+ icon is enabled by default for LTE. You can go into the tweaks app and change it. Apparently the international market uses the 4G icon for LTE but rest assured the LTE is working. [emoji106]

If you are planning on using Viper10, make sure you select US Unlocked during Aroma.
I've had LTE signal all the time and VoLTE also works fine on AT&T.

i have tried all the roms here. ice rom was great and i think it gave me the best battery life. leedroid was good also. badboys was also a good rom. but im a viper fan and cant live without the tweaks they offer. i never really had a problem with any of them. they are all solid.

Same setup. Can confirm it all works great.

You may be very right --- in the last 24 hrs I have done fresh installs of both LD and Viper and both were acting strangely -- with the LD install most recently this AM having my phone go to H+ and wouldn't go back to LTE for some reason
May have to go to BadBoyz

This is common because the signal mapping rules are different from EU and US builds. You have to make some changes to the customize/ACC/default.xml to get the proper signal mapping.
It shouldn't actually be HSPDA even though the it's saying it is. Your phone has the proper firmware and radio so it's processing the network properly but displaying it differently as the rules tell it how to interpret the signal.

Yeah it's been a comedy of errors for me in the last 48
I started out with LD ROM and then dirty flashed Viper when I first got the phone. Almost immediately noticed some marginal reception issues so I flashed the latest firmware. Stayed on dirty flashes
Then yesterday got my extSD reformatted took exFat so decided to try some clean flashes
Kinda had issues with reception after that..... Flashing the latest builds of LD and Viper. I saw some T-Mobile user post an LTE speed of 50mb down while I was struggling to get 1 or 2 at the most. Then had issues of phone switching to H+ and wouldn't go to LTE. Took an hour to update google maps!
Then today installed Elemental kernel and put the script in the su folder and lost signal all together.... Apparently a known issue on LD
Just been a strange couple days

Attached is the stock system/customize/ from the 1.53.617.5 build. You can flash this in recovery and it should fix all that. Just in case, make a backup of your system/customize folder (create a copy of the zip, replace my version with your stock and rename the zip, then you'll have a test zip and an OEM zip just in case).

Thank you
I will try this
I let out one other thing
In an effort to fix my list signal ( that was due to my ghost pepper script not being done properly _ I had not followed the OP correctly and the permissive script wasn't executing), I tried to change Fast Dormancy switching using LD Tweaks and my device just locked up. Wonder if this is all part of the same thing, or is all due to the scripting issue?
Which Rom are you running with US device?

FastDormancy is a build.prop setting. The problem for you is the euro builds don't have the proper provisioning XMLs and .prop's to properly work on the US networks.

Stock 1.53.617.5. I already cleaned out the logging and chunda from the ROM. The only change I'll make is a deodex version when I get time to deodex the base ROM. None of the custom ROMs currently add any value IMO for US. Don't get me wrong, doesn't mean they're bad, but we have only 1 US custom ROM (BadBoyz) and it's not what I'd run.

I would tend to agree --- for some reason the little thing that I enjoy the most is the ability to alter Quick Settings tiles and more specifically I really like have a GPS (On and Off) switch in the quick settings. I even tried xposed and GravityBox for a brief period of time since none of the Custom Roms really offer allow the Quick Settings alteration like I'd like (except maybe ? Viper).
How did you "clean out the logging and chunda" from your base ROM? and is there a flashable zip for the stock ROM yet?? I'm not trying to get spoon fed -- I'm just curious , because I almost always learn something when I ask about methods , like this
Thanks

I use xposed and MM GravityBox to modify my quicksettings the way I like. It works good enough to get by.

I use TWRP to go into the system folder and delete:
app/Smith
app/QXDM2SD
app/instagram-stub
app/messenger-stub
app/CalendarGoogle (google app)
app/Chrome (google app)
app/Drive (google app)
app/facebook-stub
app/gmail (google app)
app/Music2 (google app)
app/PlayAutoInstallConfig-stub
app/HTCLogLevel
app/Videos (google app)
Priv-app/Photos (google app)
Priv-app/DemoFLOPackageInstaller
Priv-app/NeroHTCInstaller
Priv-app/Plurk
Priv-app/AndroidHtcSync
Then I reinstall the google apps I want from the playstore for a cleaner install to data instead of system. With an ODEX system it's a bit messy IMO with updates.
I'm not concerned with OTA updates so I'm not worried about modifying the system folders. We'll get updates from the community anyway so it's ok to clean these out.

Not a flashable ROM but there are base/stock TWRP backups of the system you can flash. Let me see if I can pull mine and I'll try to host it for you as it's already cleaned out, has HTCFileExplorer installed etc.
Hey I would love it if you were able to host yours in some way....
Probably a pain in the butt only if you have time

I'm travelling on a limited bandwidth connection. Let me work on this and I'll see if I can get it uploaded tomorrow.

You ever get a chance to do this ? You still running stock?
