Actually if you only root your phone and don't change anything(that includes not installing custom recovery) you can take the or a but if you are already rooted and on the international you can try this- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2665985

I dont have a sd card O.O! I thought its not possible ??? So i downloaded freege out of curiosity now... Once i started it checked versions etc.. Now i am at the screen , Then i see 3 things named like this " CWM-6.0.4.6 / CWM-6.0.4.7 / TWRP-2.6.33 " ? I dont get anything
The phones internal storage is the ad card in other words and the Korean version actually supports external ad cards anyways those options are the different recoveries and I personally use twrp

Hey guys.
I have got a demo unit of an s4 I9505 and it's a "live demo" unit that has a Samsung demo ROM on it that has disabled the SIM card slot. Do you know of anyway I can remove all the software and flash a ROM and have it working as a normal handset?
I tried installing a ROM via CWM after I rooted it but it said complete but didn't change anything. Also I'm CWM it doesn't have the option to flash from internal SD card, only external. Have Samsung removed some core files in this Rom maybe? I'm rooted but in superSU it also says "no binary found, this is a problem"
Any help would be great!
Thanks

Hi,
Look HERE
Is it an i9505 or an i9505x? If it has the "x", you won't be able to make phone calls even if you root it successfully.

I saw that but got stuck at the "unpack roms" bit. I never use Odin I always use CWM so I just flash zips. Can you shed any light on how to get the file I need to select in pda?
Please be kind if it's a simple solution lol

It's the x unfortunately. Why is this?

Basically, it's a whole different unit than the i9505, and I also think I read somewhere it has different hardware too (it lacks a mobile network antenna IIRC but I'm not sure about that). Sorry, this is bad news for you I'm afraid...

Got an update notification from the Play Store on rom manager app and then the newest update it says supports Loki. When you open rom manager and go to set up recovery it actually has the AT&T galaxy s4 in there. I was wondering if anybody use it or it safe to use?

Ram manager has always caused for issues then it has been worth. I would stick to doing things manually. This way if something goes wrong you know it was something you did.

If you don't want to use rom manager do it manually. It looks like standard and touch are both available.

The download files are Zip's. You'll need to flash them in a custom recovery, ie twrp or cwm. Do some more research before you flash anything. This thread isn't very good for someone not familiar with flashing.

Read up first. Odin is for installing stock firmware. There are no short cuts. Plenty of threads on this.

I'm familiar with TWRP and CWM but the files available in the link are .img files... These aren't flashable via recovery are they?

The img files are used in goo. I'd download the zip file, recoveries on the download page and flash that in my recovery. That assumes you have a custom recovery and you want to update it.

We don't know the status of the bootloader yet. If it is locked then it won't. It should work if the bootloader is unlocked.

why you wanna swap in 4.3 ? as i know you can move 2 SD , not like 4.1.2 thats why we go for int/ext swap

it's very useful using int/ext swap. because when i flash with different custom ROM, i just restore all apps from titanium backup, and all apps installed to ext sdcard. in 4.3, i have to run move 2 sd for each one by one apps every time i change to different rom..
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!
Hi,
Take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548974.
Only the Korean versions received this update if I remember right.

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.
