Hi,
I have Galaxy S4 M919V Canadian variant. I have the original stock rom. I want to basically customize the rom, remove the new bootloader from flashing and the new Knox crap that's been introduced in 4.3. How can I go about doing that?
What tools and any guide if available ? If someone can link and point to right direction, I would really appreciate it!
Thanks!

HI there
My friend has a At&T note 2 and she is using it in Australia, therefore she is unable to update it.
she is currently on 4.1.1 and i was looking at rooting it and putting a stock ROM on it.
I've had a look and im a bit confused on what one to download and flash on to it. could someone point me in the right direction?
Just need a pure Samsung stock ROM preferably with no network branding etc..
Any help would be appreciated!

Hello All,
I am a new user here and would like to find out how to install new ROM on my Samsung galaxy s4 GT-I9505 (T-Mobile-UK).
Firstly my question is -
what rom should I be going for? Google Vanilla or any of the custom ones?
I see a lot of roms here and how to install them but not sure where to start...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2295557
Also could someone confirm if ROM versions will work in UK?

Only flash Samsung 4.2.2 Jellybean based custom roms for best results (especially for new users)
Your post here is in the wrong forum for the Galaxy S4 GT-i9505 phone.
The correct i9505 forum is located at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2166
and there you will find all kinds of roms which you can flash after your phone is rooted.
Rooting your phone is the first thing you have to do if you want to flash any roms.
Before going to the i9505 rom forum it's best to go to: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2219803
so you can root your phone. Before flashing any roms your phone needs to be rooted.
You will find everything you need including step by step rooting instructions in the link above.
Good luck!
HI guys,
desparately need a link to download stock ROM 4.1.1 for Rogers Galaxy S3
Links posted previously on XDA do not seem to work.
Appreciate if you let me know where I could find it.
Check samfirmware.com.
If you have a stock 4.3 ROM on your phone, do not try to install an older bootloader because it will brick your phone.
Quick question?....now that the 4.4.2 ota official update has came thru. Does anyone know of anyone working on a stock rom mirroring the 4.4.2 ota.. In a flashable rom zip form... Not g.e or miui just the same ota 4.4.2 in a rom form ... for those that dont want to update to 4.4.2?
Alot of people use the Metro PCS s4 m919n which is the same as m919 literally besides the metro bloat and we use tmobile m919 roms..all day on Metro s4 thats why i asked ...
becasue it may be a easy way to get 4.4.2 on metros m919N which as far as i know has yet to se a 4.4.2 update.
If this is possible im thinking about flashing Odin uvuemk2 on my METRO S4 making it a official stock m919 4.3 then trying the 388mb update.zip that someone has managed to mirror from the ota. That should put my m919n on tmobiles 4.2.2
Dont believe any bootlaoder or baseband issue will arrise these phones are super identical And run eachothers roms from 4.1.2 all the way too what we currently have.
Any insight will be great

No bootloader or baseband issues will a rise, I've successfully ODINed quite a bit of tmo specific stuff onto my M919N and it works perfectly fine. It's now a M919 of course.
I'm a bit confused about your question though, so you do want 4.4 stock tmo on your S4 or not? Or are you asking of the possibility of getting a 4.4 stock M919N ROM that's still metro? Because if you just simply want 4.4 stock tmo, all you have to do is odin the stock firmware like you said and make sure to triangle away if your device is custom then you'll be able to OTA and get 4.4

Hi, I have a problem
Well not really a problem but I need an answer. Basically, I am wondering if I can flash T-Mobile firmware on my i747. (Stock firmware)
I want all the T-Mobile features essentially. This explains it, but I am wondering if this is possible?
support.t-mobile.com/thread/83865?start=0 <-- This thread explains it. But is it possible for the galaxy s3?
If i'm not making any sense I understand this is very hard for me to word.
Also if this can be done, can I get a link to a stock T-Mobile ROM?
Stock T-mobile s3 ROMs are here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SGH-T999/
Thanks, but can I flash this on a i747?
I have no idea if flashing a t999 rom to a i747 is possible.
