Hmmm.... Canadian variant correct? 4.3 update or no?
I wonder if they share the same baseband/Modem?
If so... I want that 4.3 modem
What firmware was officially the last for you guys?
4.3 from Videotron

Sorry went out lol ya...installed its 4.3 Canadian Wind Mobile all working fine. Odd is in the pull down settings in 4.3 no option to turn off moble data its like it comes on automatic if not on wifi saves a step. If you needed it off you can always do it in settings like always.
Wonder if we can flash this radio to M919

Anyone try yet to root the new firmware with CF-Autoroot?
Problems with the update (?)
I have been reading online about various issues plaguing the Galaxy S4 from upgrading to android 4.3. Some of the links that I have visited:
Samsung Galaxy S4 Users Experiencing Problems After Updating to Android 4.3 (Geeky Gadgets)
Android 4.3 update causing issues for Galaxy S4 owners too (Neowin)
(Sorry I cannot post links yet; please search these titles on Google)
Are any of you experiencing some of the issues discussed in the links (e.g. battery drain, inconsistent Wi-Fi, etc.)
I have received the notification but did not upgrade yet.

Will I lose my waranty without flashing custom room or custom recovery if I just root my S4 SGH-M919V?
Thank you.
Looks like I'll be downloading this for the modem. Thanks for the heads up about sammobile.
Stupid question but do you have WiFi calling?

I didnt noticed any issues with 4.3 upgrade beside loosing the mobile on/off button in samsung pull down menu which pisses me off a bit, it has been replaced by reader mode, WTF. Good move Samsung, I will remember it...
Samsung knox seems partially installed, few of its processes are running aint sure if it's totally functional. Its bloatware to my opinion, should be optional, another thing ill remember Samsung...

I don't think it has wi-fi calling. I think its just the stock firmware slightly modified with a custom modem for WIND Mobile and other stuff, like changing the 3G into a 4G icon, etc. Wi-fi calling was never included with the WIND Mobile Galaxy S4. I don't see why they would add it now without some big announcement.

Thank you and sorry, I'm not familiar with that carrier. I saw M919*** and figured it could have been a t-mobile company. My mistake!
Poorer battery life (?)
I just recently updated to Stock Android 4.3 M919VVLUEMK5 on my WIND Mobile Galaxy S4 (SGH-M919V) and I have noticed that the battery life is significantly poorer than when I had both Stock Android 4.2.2 M919VVLUAMG1 and Rooted Android 4.2.2 M919VVLUAMG1.
I am wondering whether or not it was just me that was experiencing this issue.
Screenshots for battery drain.
I was using Flipboard and listening to music at the same time.
On the plus side, the phone charges ridiculously fast.
Edit: New screenshot showing battery charging:
Edit 2: Battery drain while idle is fixed by temporarily restarting the ohone

when you boot up your device, does it shows somewhere that your device was tempred with !? to keep waranty availlable for videotron in case of a problem ? i just need/want root, without unlocking anything else...

Once you root 4.3 (with Knox), your flash counter goes to "Knox warranty valid 0x1" and that's it (you are out of warranty, with no possibility (up to date) of reversing the status.
hello every one
as the subject says if you soft brick your phone for whatso ever reason( and you are facing Firmware Upgrade encountered an issue on display when turning on,
then this solution might be very helpful for you
i was on 4.3 with MJ5 boot loader, made the mistake didnt checked the phone info and tried to downgraded the firmware caused my phone soft bricked
the worst thing i realized i didnt made any backup( even the EFS back up was lost)
in short the story is..
i asked couple of people for advise,
i tried following to bring my phone back
* Samsung Kies( recovery Modes by entering Device Serial Numbers and Model Name) Result: Failed, this device cant be upgraded/restored due to custom firmware
* Odin: 3.09 + stock firm ware ( 4.3 from O2uk and then 4.3 3 Uk) Result: failed, error message, missing PIT File
* Tried to find PIT File online but there are few places you can get stock 4.3 Firmware Extracted PIT File to flash) tried here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1927983, result failed
* then tried different firmwares ( European, French 4.3, UK 4.1 with and Without PIT file ( http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/) but failed again, the ODIN 3.09 was not helping out here
I was about to give up here but then steff advise me to try and flash rescue firm ware from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32273406 link but only 2nd firm ware ( not the 1st or 3rd, ) for some reason the 4.1 rescue firmware link is down,( download from here : https://www.dropbox.com/s/qs9wigflyrwp8ip/N7100XXDLL7_N7100OXADLL4_N7100XXDLK7_FACTORY_XEF.rar)
Android - 4.1.2
PDA - N7100XXDLL7
CSC - MULTI XEF_N7100OXADLL4
RADIO - N7100XXDLK7
DOWNLOAD_N7100XXDLL7_FACTORY (2012-28-12)(
and steff helped me out with his drop box to upload the rescue firm ware ( https://www.dropbox.com/s/gfdh3mgbv34c3ti/N7100XXDLL7_N7100OXADLL4_N7100XXDLK7_FACTORY_XEF.rar )
any way by extracing the rescue firmware 4.1, and doing PIT file flash with Odin 3.09 didnt worked either, so as per advise i changed the Odin 3.09 to 3.07( download from ( Odin 3.07 - XDA-Developers)
i was successfuly able to flash PIT ( done this number of times , at first flashed rescue firmware with PIT File, failed half way cause the PIT was flashed but firmware couldnt went through, then flashed rescue firmware 4.1 alone
stopped half way, again started in download mode and flashed it went through and finally phone booted up)
* NOw the IMEI was gone, tried to enter phone engineering screen to update the IMEI from GPR Service Menu but failed
* i flashed MJ5 boot loader to see if it works fine failed again.
* Finally i was told to flash Stock 4.4 KK which will remove all bugs from the phone and hope fully the phone will boot with correct imei
downloaded 4.4 from this link ( https://mega.co.nz/#!2QRmCbyb!YkWs927BfvYxqL-vJiQHXkshqG3UtqHm4XIDbgLsEK0) fast download, and flashed successfully , which bring my note back to life
everything works fine
* I tried to flash 4.4.2 direct to see if it works( both with Odin 3.09 and 3.07 before flashing rescue firm ware but this didnt work either
* IMportant Points:
Avoid flashing any rom/kernal unless you are sure what you are doing
* always keep a nand back up prior to any flashing
* always read good enough before you flash
* and even if you read enough and something went wrong, use your phone for parts and pay for the charity at the end
i hope this is simple guide for you to sort your bricked phone from the error'' firmware upgrade encountered an issue please connect with kies''
special thanks to smeet.somaiya , singhpratik87 , , Logel, nitol, and Specially to steff195 for providing all links up and running
this will save time and money to those who are out of warranty
thanks

@tnt4ever I always have problem flashing any firmware, official or custom, either the imei goes corrupt or phone goes in emergency calls only. Can I flash this firmware to get out of the situation and get OTA update for 4.1.2, 4.3 or 4.4.2.

@tnt4ever my problem is this...
Guys I have been experimenting with a lots of custom roms, but flashing them only results in emergency calls only. My imei remains intact but mobile network does not work.
I have tried flashing Wanamlite v3.9, Phoenix 13, Omega 17-18, tried changing modems, ariza patch, restoring efs via terminal emulator and note 2 tool kit.
Right now I am on XXDLL7 and DDDMG1 (patched using Zuluman's modem patcher and it worked!!!)
I have successfully flashed 4.4.2 dn3 v5 with patched kernel, but due to some reasons I prefer 4.1.2, and would like to use any of the four aforementioned custom roms.
Please help. Thanks.

Hey guys, sorry for the delay...
Dunno if the link provided by ibraahim is efficient for anyone having a problem, if it does, it's fine by me, but when I had troubles months ago (because I ticked "Nand Erase All" option in Odin, thus corrupting my bootloader and messing up my phone) I tried all the solutions from this link and, as tnt4ever well remembered to specify in OP, only the 2nd firmware from that link worked. That file was the only one to contain all three required files to re-write the bootloader and related stuff (param.img, tz.img, sboot.bin), along with the .pit file, for re-partition. Ibraahim's file is the one from the 3rd file from that link, so I remember it didn't contain all those files. But, I repeat, according to your phone's problem, that firmware could be just fine to fix your problem. For me, it didn't.
So, as OP stated, the links are not available anymore, but I have the file on my pc and uploaded (again) to my Dropbox, if anyone needs it. The problem is that Dropbox doesn't allow excessive file download and thus the file may become unavilable for download (as it did before). So, the one(s) who get to grab the file, is more than welcome to mirror it.

Btw, tnt4ever: didn't you already have this file, since you downloaded and tried it, so you could upload it somewhere?

Any way I will do this in the first instance this week as I have to travel for work during the week and long week caused a lot of work delays

Actually I don't want to flash any 4.3 or above Rom. I do get everything working on 4.3 and above with patched kernel and modem. But I need to get 4.1.2 working without tripping imei or getting emergency calls only.

hello Ibrahim
i find it really funny but to be very honest once you flash stock 4.4.2( download and flash with doing 3.07) then your imei issue will be sorted
i used stock 4.4 for few days then i rooted the phone and went back on latest dn3 v5+ rom
anyway once you got your working phone then you can Do whatever you want ( rooting flashing any rom you wish)

Hello Genius Fellas,
I rooted my friends T999L via ODIN perfectly fine & then flash CWR via ODIN without any problems. Downloaded the MIUI ROM from the forum, took a backup before clean flashing it. It didn't work & gave an error. So wiped everything and rebooted the phone and it went back to the stock firmware.
Then I downloaded the Quantum ROM from the original dev section and It wouldn't install either. So I gave up on installing roms and then downloaded the stock firmware for T999L : T999UVUENC2_T999TMBENC2_T999UVUENC2_HOME.tar.md5.
I then tired to flash it via ODIN but It's giving following errors. Ive attached the screen shots.
I don't know what am I missing, I really need your help. Thanks.

It appears as though you are trying to flash firmware for the T999 rather than the T999L. Download this UVUBNC1 posted in DocHoliday77's [Firmware/OTA's] [root66] SGH-T999(All Variants!) Official & Root66 FW & OTA Updates and try flashing it with Odin.

What issues did you have with the MIUI or quantum Rom ?
Now that you are on 4,3 do please note, any attempt to flash older firmware will HARD BRICK your phone.

I'm glad it worked. I've been using this forum and "leeching" for years and thought it time that I actually participate and help
After searching everywhere for the modem I747MVLUFNK2 and with no luck, I downloaded the firmware from SamMobile and unzipped and created the modem. I accidentally flashed the incorrect file and lost my baseband and service; once I downloaded the correct modem to match my bootloader and flashed in TWRP my service came back and all is good.
Here is the download link (please no mirrors)

After searching everywhere for the modem I747MVLUFNK2 and with no luck, I downloaded the firmware from SamMobile and unzipped and created the modem. I accidentally flashed the incorrect file and lost my baseband and service; once I downloaded the correct modem to match my bootloader and flashed in TWRP my service came back and all is good.
Here is the download link (please no mirrors)

Which bandbase are you using? I'm still on NH2 with the NH2 modem and I don't want to flash an incompatible modem.

Your bootloader has to match your baseband... when I flashed a different baseband when on NK2 I lost signal IMEI and everything; use Sammobile to download firmware and then youll be on that bootloader; Im on NE6 now
working great for me, thanks!

You need to use Chrome; you are clicking on the wrong link on dev-host there is 2 Download links that sometimes show up with popups... or use your computer to download works fine for others
It did work fine for me.
Please I tried to downgrade my galaxy S4 from t-mobile and I bricked it(already fixed it), but I need to downgrade it to unlock it. I tried every way I found here but I keep bricking it
I believe you are suppose to flash the 4.2.2 modem, root, the run regionlockaway, and reflash current modem.

I'm having trouble finding the modems
Confirm the model number in download mode, then do a google search for the appropriate firmware, extract the modem, and flash it?
I'm not sure but you maybe able to use other m919 roms for extract the modem to unlock the phone.

It seems I talked too early but this problems more easy.....my dialer and messaging app are slow af but I'm wondering if I can re-flash the stock 4.4.4 firmware even if that's the version I currently am? Because think I the problem is the modem that I flash had problem

Yep, I re-flashed the stock firmware and it works?
After downgrading the modem, I always recommend reflashing the latest rom from sammobile.com in Odin followed by a full wipe in stock recovery.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_V3a99HuE-tNzUtaEVTN0hDRkE/view?usp=sharing
Both have the same files.
1. Unzip and flash 4.2.2 modem with Odin(CP Button).
2. Open RegionLockAway and follow the instructions.
3. Once RegionLockAway finish flash 4.4.4 modem.
It's better if you're in stock(if you wanna be sure nothing happens).
Any leads on the Mobilicity or Wind modems?
