So just flash with Odin?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

How can I download the file? how to flash?

Go to thelink I posted. All the way right is a download column. Clck on the icon there.
You must be 100% stock to flash. Stock recovery, stock modem, stock build with no mods.
Flash from stock recovery, or Mobile Odin. NOT reg Odin.
Mobile Odin Pro is a very essy way to keep root.
Or use OTA rootkeeper. But if you factory resey during the process it may lose root regardless.
Also, remember this is untested by anyone here. And we have little info on it. Its most likely ok, but at your own risk and all!

Ok downloading Mobile Odin now, and will flash from there..
Update: installed Mobile Odin, downloaded and rename bin to zip.
When I open the app, and click on 'Open File...' nothing shows up with the zip file. Am i missing something here?

Good luck! Keep us posted.
Oh and it looks like this IS a JB leak.

Compared to the T Mobile leak, is there any differences? Besides having TMOUS bloatware and boot animation?

Above 'open file' click Update/Ota instead. Itll let you choose the zip. The choose file part is just for full fw .tar

Oh man I'm excited for this. Is it possible for someone to extract the modem and make a CWM flashable with it so we don't have to go back to full stock?

What ROMs? What version of CWM? (I hope it's a 6.x.y.z.) Any more error messages?

It'll have to be stock recovery for it to even download to the phone I'm pretty sure.
Only a few options I can think of.
Get a stock VLALE6 recovery and install it.
Flash the stock FW and then update.
Or just flash the updated stock FW.
Has it already downloaded the ota?
It should be in /cache/fota/ if it has. It'll be update.zip.
If it did, I can help you get it installed as is. Make a copy of the update.zip if you can btw.

If you want you can try using Mobile Odin. Download the LE6 FW and choose to install it in Mobile Odin. You can deselect everything but recovery and flash. Then you should be able to get the ota.
You could also pull recovery.img from the FW re-tar it and flash with pc odin.

Always good to have another resource, but two things real quick...
He can't use this FW. Its for the T999 but since he's on Videotron he will almost certainly have the model T999V.
It does not say what build either the FW or the Recovery are. I'm guessing they are both the original build UVALEM, but it really should specify.
Thanks anyway man.
@OP
If you do have the T999V like I suspect, use the links I gave you a couple posts up.

Okay, I'm not sure what you flashed with Odin. Download twrp and flash the recovery img in the past, with everything unchecked. Once you boot into recovery you have to flash the root file in the twrp root kit on that site.

OTA requires stock recovery, not custom recovery. It downloads, then but reboots expecting stock recovery.

Indication of a bad download. You could try redownloading the update. MD5 & SHA Checksum Utility can save this trouble by checking downloaded files before attempting to flash.

Phone stuck, and won't boot. Possible soft brick?

Alright so my dad just got a S4, and I did the same steps I did when I rooted my S4, except this time it didn't work. I flashed CWM Touch Recovery v6.0.3.2 and flashed the root file via recovery. Now when I reboot it gets to the Samsung Galaxy S4 logo, and just gets stuck. In the corner it says "kernel is not seandroid enforcing". I'm doing my best not to panic, but I could use some help fixing this.
I can:
Get into Recovery
Get into Download Mode
Any tips and advice would be amazing, thank you!
What "root file" did you use? You need to flash the stock firmware and then use Odin to flash CF auto root or something.

No clue. I just assumed it would be the same as mine. I'd make the safe assumption it's 4.4.2 as the android version, as that is what the website is telling me. As far as Baseband I have no clue. Is there anyway I can find out without booting in?
I've actually done this same exact thing about a year ago with my last s4. All I did was flash the latest firmware with odin and start over. The fact that you can get in to recovery and download leads me to believe everything should be fine, except you may lose all you saved data like messages, pics, etc..

That is reassuring. It was an out of the box thing. We charged it, and then he had me do it real quick. Now I just got to find the latest firmware for 4.4.2.

Just for confirmation, this is the one correct: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=SGH-M919&pcode=TMB#firmware
Don't want to be a dumbass and mess-up even more.
Those are the correct ones.

Alright, and when I flash it to the phone I can just follow this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2258628
Thise instructions are perfectly fine. The only difference is that you are using a newer firmware with a different file name.

Okay, and I should be using Odin 3.09?
Instructions
Extract (unzip) the firmware file
Download Odin v3.09
Extract Odin zip-file
Open Odin v3.09
Reboot phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
Add the firmware file to AP / PDA
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait a few minutes
I took those instructions from sammobile

Ah alright. Thank you so much for the help! I really appreciate it.
No problem. I'm glad I could help.
Just for future reference, you dont need to hold the HOME button when booting into Download mode or Recovery. Other than that stickboy is right. If you have to, just go on YouTube and find a 4.4.2 root video tut if you feel you need it.

Alright, so this should work to fix the phone though right? I guess lesson learned in this situation: Look to see what Android Version you're running before getting too hasty.
