Stock Rom - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys. I need an advice pls.
I flashed a galaxy s4 i9500 (international) with sokp Rom. (Aosp based 4.4 Rom)
Now I want to flash a pure stock 4.4 Rom. Which I never had on my device. I started with custom Roms from 4.2.2, moved to 4.3 and then the custom Sokp Rom. So I need words of advice.
Is there a flashable latest stock rom which I can flash in twrp? If yes, are the steps the same as flashing custom Rom?
Where can I get a link if such?
Thanks in advance.

You can flash through odin a stock rom from sammobile or a custom rom generated from stock from xda where you can flash the zip file you pput on the microsd card for i.e. with recovery. But original stock rom which might be used to restore original condition (for warranty reasons for i.e.) should be flashed with odin or kies.

You cannot downgrade the rom after you have odin flashed any 4.4.2 rom.
But you can flash any compatible cwm/twrp custom roms which are 4.4.2 or newer.
You cannot go back/downgrade to 4.3 roms.
Good luck!

Ur first sentence is right, but the rest isn't.
When he flashed only the Google Edition from Jamal( a custom ROM over recovery) and never the leak before, he got not the new bootloader. So he can downgrade if he wants.
When u flashed the new leak u can always downgrade on 4.3 Custom ROM via backup.

[Q] Flashing Kit Kat Based Custom ROM

Hi ,
I just got my G2 Yesterday , rooted and flash TWRP right away on the stock 4.2.2 . I am tempted to try out some Kit Kat based custom roms now. I have a few questions
1-) Can i directly flash KK based custom rom ( after a full wipe of 4.2.2 ) ?
2-) Would i be able to go back to my stock rom via nandroid after KK custom rom ? i.e going into recover and flashing the backup again ? ( heard there are not custom recoveries for KK ? )

1-) Yes, kinda. Just look for instructions in OP of the roms. This one works pretty well: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2667714 (Only D802 there are LG KK Roms for other variants though, just search the forums)
2-) No, there's no custom recovery for 4.4.2 yet, but devs are getting close. Read more about that here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2667227
Edit: One more thing: You can of course flash AOSP 4.4.2 roms and will keep custom recovery.

So if i understand correctly. There would be no going back from a KK based rom except using the LG tool to flash the stock KDZ right ?

Only AOSP? I just got this phone and I'm familiar with adb and the rooting/recovery process but does this mean I could install a 4.4.2 version of cyanogen or paranoid android or BeanStalk over 4.2.2 and keep my custom recovery?

This depends on your variant. The D800 kitkat has been moded to allow a mixed match of partitions that allows the previous loki enabled recovery to run. This was released yesterday But Is only possible thanks to the release of the kernel source for the D800 from LG. Other variants will follow. In fact the D800 versions from AndroidUser0011001 and garyd9 will flash from your custom recovery, no LG Flashtool required

Thanks guys !
I think its better to stick with stock rooted for now and jump to KK when all the necessary stuff is made available. So that jumping between KK and JB is easy .

The above anwser is incorrect. What he said only applies to official firmware.
It will probably work. Just try it out. There is no harm done if it doesn't.

[Q] switching between lollipop roms

Hi, my g2 is running stock lollipop. If I want to try an aosp lollipop based rom I just need to wipe the old system and flash the new one? I do not have to flash any other stuff life "back to kk" or be worried about the sensors or modem, or recoveries am I right?
anyone?
no sir, if you are on stock Lollipop you are not clear to flash any ROM's, do you have a custom recovery?
Apologies, as I have not tried the OTA lollipop....how is it? Worth trying in place of a constantly rebooting CM12-based phone?
You will need to be running a 4.3 bootloader before flashing the Lollipop ROM's, so you will need to take some steps to downgrade.

And what if we want to go back from AOSP to stock lollipop?

You just asked a similar question a few posts up. The answer is the same. You need a deodexed rom. A stock rom is odexed.

Download the Deodexed Stock version for N910F...either BOD2 or POF2...
Both will work...
Don't forget to Flashing the appropriate Bootloader & Modem via Odin...(like for POF2 use POF2 BL modem.. For BOD2 use BOD2 BL as well modem )
Download Bootloader & Modem For SM-N910F
It's all Stock just changed to Deodexed ...
Everything is Present like in Stock Samsung...
