Problems with the 4.3 update patch - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Just downloaded a 23mb update which appears to be a patch for bug fixes on the official 4.3 update... It downloaded fine, but failed at instaling!!! I'm sure it's because I'm rooted with xposed installed as well. Anyway to correct this so I could proceed with the installation? Any positive feedback will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I would remove the framework, set survival mode in SuperSU, reboot and try again.

Oh wow. Thanks a bunch. So removing the framework will be as simple as installing it? Also, will the ota update still be available even after I had already downloaded it? Thanks again for your help

In the xposed installer app (the green droid with a red x and stitches) you can tell it to remove the framework with the cleanup option.

Yes. Ok, I'll give it a shot. Thanks again. Btw, New York Giants all the way! ? lol

Hey, I have something for you.
as mentiond in the other thread OTA fails on rooted devices Kies works fine though.
Had to reapply CF root after update. Now time to expolore new features and work out how to restore unified search. I don't use it, I just want to stick it to apple.
So is the update good or bad? Should I update?

Had the update, and predictably lost root so re-odinised with CF-root 6.4 and no luck, phone knows its modified but no rooted apps work, updated the supersu from the market but no apps call on it anymore, its like its nor there.
Any idea's

UPDATED! 10/15 [Announcement] Safestrap released by Hashcode

In case you missed it Hashcode released the alpha of Safestrap over here...
[RECOVERY LOCKED] Safestrap Recovery v3.6x
...I am just sharing the news. You need to check the original thread for details and instructions. Please read carefully as there are a few caveats at this time. Like...
CURRENTLY THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE WHERE IF YOU HAVE ENCRYPTION ENABLED AND INSTALL SS IT BOOTLOOPS. IF YOU FIT THIS DESCRIPTION PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM SAFESTRAP FOR NOW.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
KNOWN ISSUES (PLEASE READ CAREFULLY):
For locked users: there is a process that happens when you click "Reboot Recovery" from the APK or use the "Recovery" button during the splash screen. Safestrap checks the device for write_protect and if it's enabled will automatically reboot the device to recovery (write_protect disabled) mode. You will see this as a screen with ORANGE text reading: "PLEASE WAIT THE DEVICE IS REBOOTING TO RECOVERY". Followed by the bootloader screen again. You may also see the splashscreen for Safestrap. If you see the splashscreen hit "Recovery" again. It's supposed to automatically take you to into recovery, but it doesn't work correctly yet.

And there are other things you need to read as well. So head over there and check out the OP and enjoy.
10/15 UPDATE BELOW
Hashcode said:
NEW Safestrap in the OP Link: v3.63
ATTENTION: IF UPGRADING FROM v3.62 or EARLIER USE "REMOVE RECOVERY" IN THE APK BEFORE INSTALLING THE NEW VERSION. I CHANGED THE HIJACK IN v3.63 -- DIFFERENT FILES ARE BEING CHANGED NOW.
CHANGES:
[3.63] I re-wrote the hijack to work at a MUCH better point during the boot. This cleans up most of the "jankyness" we were previously seeing with BT/Wifi and adb serial # on the stock rom. ** Note when upgrading to v3.63: Make sure to use the "Remove Recovery" in the previous version BEFORE installing the new APK. **
[3.63] The 2nd-init hijack was updated to work w/ Android 4.3 (for when that's pushed)
[3.62] Better handling for the virtual partitions
[3.62] Some bugfixes for /mnt handling
[3.62] Customizable sizes for partitions (you can use the defaults if unsure). Use the "+" or "-" buttons on the rom-slot creation screen to add / remove 100mb per click.
Enjoy

You cannot use it with encryption.

I just saw the tweet and thought I would share it. You'll have to double check the original thread. But it looks like (to me and I could be completely wrong) that as long as you haven't enabled encryption then you should be good.

[Q] LG camera version 4.3.1

Hello Guys, I heard about LG to update the camera apk to 4.3.1 and fix about every problem the camera had.
Some of you received this update?
And if so, where can we find an apk of it?
Thanks a lot!

Sent from my LG-D800 using xda app-developers app
You push apk's into system/app and libs into system/lib but you have to find a way to clear dalvik cache and cache so that when you reboot android system will read all apps and create. dex files for them to work and without custom recovery I don't know if any other app would do without any problems.

Uninstalling then going into whatever recovery you have , stock or custom, and clearing caches usually can did that. Then re installing.

So you know, xposed works on our phones but not all the mods and hacks will work, I've had success getting about 50% of the tweaks to work in the Wanum xposed module. It is not written for our version of the S4 but a lot of the tweaks will work.
After I did a fresh load of the FULL NAE I got the framework to install. It's great
Thanks

The reason is really simple. Wanam Xposed is for TW based roms. You are not on that. Thus it will never work.
You can use something like this

Because you don't give information about what rom you are using (saying that you use kk 4.4 says nothing). My guess would be that you use an incompatible rom.
Did you read the first post in gravity box?
- DO NOT USE WITH CUSTOM ROMS LIKE CM,AOSPA,ROOTBOX,AOKP,SLIM, OMNI AND THEIR OTHER CLONES... IT MAKES NO SENSE AND CAN CAUSE CONFLICTS AND UNEXPECTED BEHAVIOUR
I was just giving that module as example of what you could use.
Well I'm using stock ROM of Samsung and not only gravity box but other modules don't work.. None work..

Okay the whole story, I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 and I rooted it.. I didn't install any custom ROM and it was running on the latest official update of kitkat by Samsung..

Are you moving the modules to the sd card? Because you can't move the modules to the sdcard.
