[ROMS] Pre-Rooted I9505 Odin Flashable Packages! - Galaxy S 4 General

I am currently implementing an alternate method of Rooting which I have found to be successful by means of Pre-Rooting the system.img.ext4 file. I have already released Pre-Rooted ROMs for previous models and wanted to continue this development for the Galaxy S4.
Why use this Root Method? Well the main reasons are:
- You have a complete Odin Flashable ROM Package.
- No Insecure Kernels are used or required.
- You can flash these packages on Non-Rooted devices
- The Binary Flash Counter will NOT increase when flashing these ROM Packages.
- And finally, you only have to flash one file in Odin and you have a complete firmware including Root Permissions.
What Root Package is used in these ROMs?
- Busybox 1.20.2 (Newer ROMs)
- SuperSU 1.51 (Newer ROMs)
Previously released ROMs may have an older Busybox and SuperSU package installed.
Please Note: This Root Method does not include a Custom Recovery. This is for people who only require Root Permissions. If you do require a Custom Recovery, you will need to flash this yourself separately.

Just UnZip and Flash the '.tar.md5' File in Odin.

I have my own scripts to fully automate the process and I modify the system image directly and not on the device to ensure a fully clean flashable package. I will be releasing the scripts tomorrow. I have looked at the thread you mentioned and it seems that guy has copied my layout format in some respects and changed it slightly. I have been pre-rooting rooms since the galaxy s2 so it isn't exactly a world premiere! Lol! Here are my sources and please check the thread creation dates so you know I create my own work!

Couple of questions. Is the firmware 1 or 3 part and as it a wipe rom?
I ask because I would really like to keep my apps and data without having to restore either though titanium or cwm, and if it's a 3 part is like to flash without csc to retain my current one.

Is this a ready to go system or is it still in development?
I've just got myself an S4 on EE (UK) and have been trawling all the threads to catch up on what's going on. (I've been stuck with an Atrix 4G for 2 years!)
Perfectly happy with the stock ROM but just really want to get that Root going too.

You absolute legend.
I'm a tad rusty with Linux sadly. It's been a good 4 years or so since I used any distro in anger.
You know what its like when you get stuck in a rut managing nothing but Windows users!
Shall give that a blast once I've got the file and sort you out a coffee or a pint too.

Hello people, I am new to Samsung, I usually just buy a used phone to circumvent any void warranty issues (as they are cheaper I sort of self insure myself, I only got the desire new and I rooted it on the 2nd day ). My SGS4 is arriving on Tuesday and it will be new with warranty.
Could you please confirm that there is absolutely no chance what so ever to void the warranty by flashing a pre-rooted rom. I would be quite happy to use the stock rom as long as it is rooted.
I've always used HardSPL, official or unofficial (when available) S-OFF and root on my previous HTC devices and I have never ever bricked a phone.
Thank you for your help

Did you get any further with this at all? I've held off rooting for the moment but if it's going to be a while longer I will just go for it with the current one.

XXUDMI1 KNOX WARRANTY VOID - 0x1
Hi,
I am wondering if you have managed to get a worked around with your scripts of the issue that is related to "KNOX WARRANTY VOID - 0x1" in all the newer ROMs. it yes, then how I safely root my I9505 without voiding the "KNOX WARRANTY:
Thanks for your reply.

No sorry, this Knox stuff is way outta my depth. Its very secure.

Not sure why everyone talks about build date.
The changelog is going to be your one guarantee that a firmware is in anyway different or identical to the one you already have
Quite often build dates might be different because of scheduling of the coding etc

Thanks for this. As a new comer to the Android world and having just got my S4, I note this is the firmware on my phone (online import to Australia). However, could you confirm for me:
this is a link to the Stock ROM should I need to return the original OS,
that despite this, I can still follow published methods for rooting my phone (eg "Root the Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505 on Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean using Motochopper tool",
there is no problem with me moving to a British based Custom ROM such as described here "Update Galaxy S4 I9505 to official XXUAMDM Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean Firmware", and finally
Does the region software is designed for (eg Hong Kong vs Europe) have an impact on the phone's functionality and hardware abilities?
Many thanks
Gotta keep a eye on SamMobile as they are faster with Firmwares

I wish somebody would have mirrored.. HotFile sucks
Yep
Really don't understand why they keep uploading them on hotfile, when there are far better alternatives.. or why not they could even make a torrent for the most desired builds.
Anyway.. thanks!
Now just have to wait 2 hours for this to dw despite having a 100mbps connection.

All stock can be upgraded without wipe etc. Just use newest rom with odin
Region dont have any difference as long as rom is for your model. Dont try to flash rom for other model. You can eg flash brazilian firmware made for 9505 to simfree uk phone etc.

There is not root for 4.4 yet. I don't doubt it will be out in the next 1 or 2 months
So, has anyone upgraded this to Kit-Kat yet? I don't think we'll ever see it from AIO.
So the aio variant for sure has a locked bootloader?

Wow, just got a software update notice for 4.4.2. Of course I'm afraid to even try to install it. I don't want to lose root. I'm just shocked to even see it.

Do you have root? I know there's a way to download and grab the zip from the phone if you have root. Otherwise the other method you suggested may work.
EDIT: Root method is easier as you just download, use file manager to get it from /cache, and then you can upload it for others. I don't know which root methods do and don't work for your device however. Logcat can be done, you'll just be looking through a lot of lines of logs possibly.

its true what you say, i have been trying logcat but it shows a ton of lines, and im searching for the hotword .zip or zip or update and no results give me a URL, maybe samsung is cloaking the update from logcat or they found a way to hide it, in my phone the root i know it works is kingo root, but when im rooted the phone does not let me download the update, it says "your phone has been modified, updates are not available"

[Q] Installing Custom ROMs on KNOX-powered Galaxy S3

Hi guys,
I'm new here as a user, but I used xda frequently. I haven't found any info as an answer to my question, so let me ask you:
Is there any way to install a 4.4.2 ROM on Galaxy S3 with KNOX? There are some specifications I want to add to this question:
1. I deleted all KNOX apps using Titanium Backup, so I think on the software side I'm clean.
2. It doesn't matter for me, whether this thing will trip my counter or not, the only thing I need is to install a different ROM.
3. ODIN got stuck in the middle when I tried to install a different ROM so I had to get back. (which on the other side means that I tripped my KNOX counter, I suppose)
4. I used Safestrap w/ a different partition on it, where I installed CM11, but it only showed me black screen.
5. I rooted my phone using saferoot application.
I would be very grateful if you could help me. The problem is that other threads that I saw only deal with avoiding KNOX tripping. In my case, I don't really care about the warranty. I only demand freedom in installing any ROM I want.
Thanks in advance.

after making everyone beg and playing games you've finally done it.
it's a community and people share. so well done for finally just letting it go and not drawing the process out any longer (nobody likes a gloater after all lol) . it would have been just easier had you just done it in the first place instead of being silly about it lol
Unfortunately I think this will only run on a G900F variant successfully due to the kernel. It woud be a G900F specific kernel, so some other variants might not work at all, and others may find issues. For example, a G900I user may get away with testing it, but features like NFC will not work like what happens with Lollipop firmwares.
I think I'll wait until an official 6.x comes out before I make any ROMs based on it, this is obviously an early beta.

as someone who makes roms is it a good thing to get a beta for testing purpose so you essentially get a head start for when the official version comes out? for tinkering and messing about this so to speak?
or is it really just not worth it until a complete version is out?
Downloading right now. Thanks for sharing even though it took you a long time to get this haha
On g900f BPA2 - bootloop. After reboot using power button + volume down it shows upgrading screen and on 273th app reboots itself. So I think it won't boot without proper bootloader.
restored this on G900T and is bootloop. gets to the flashing samsung logo but stuck there
@geiti94 can you look this and make work?
You need to have 6.0.1 to bootloader to boot it. Ot useless without it..

Isn't the bootloader in the boot.img? If not how to backup it?
Sent from my SM-G900F using XDA Free mobile app
Unfortunately the boot.img contains the kernel. The bootloader in my knowledge is impossible to extract from the phone. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only way to obtain the bootloader to is to take it from a stock firmware.
Flashfire allows to backup the bootloader but it does not work yet on samsung mm and it requires root... has anyone an easy solution to extract it?
first of all, great to see the Dump here. Finally Lets wait a few more days for the BL and THEN lets try it out
noo, we need to speed up, we need marshmallow on our s5 )) just kidding
I tried restoring it from TWRP but I was stuck on boot loop. I even performed a full wipe.
Can someone please try and extract some apps, sounds, wallpapers etc. ?
At least we can see if they are the same as on LP.
Thank you.

This is great, finally a ROM available for the AT&T version, thanks a lot!

OK so I've tried to install the AT&T variant of the ROM, but all I'm getting is bootloops, I know it said I may encounter a few bootloops, but I don't think that really means sitting through 20 minutes of them, so any suggestions?
Sent from my HTC One A9 using XDA-Developers mobile app
S-On? If so... have to flash kernel seperately. 1.57.617.20 firmware? If not need to be updated.

Hey will this replace my recovery?
Sent from my HTC One A9 using XDA-Developers mobile app
No it will not replace your recovery... Included in the ROM zip is stock recovery(which will remove modified system notification in boot loader if flashed), and latest TWRP reecovery...

Quick question. I'm quite new to rooting/flashing roms. I've unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP recovery and rooted with SuperSu. Root checker app confirms that my device is rooted (using At&t carrier version) and current firmware is 1.27.502.5. My question is how do I flash the 1.57.617.20 firmware and subsequently this ROM? Do I put the zip files onto the device and install them using the TWRP Recovery mode? Or ADB/Fastboot in download mode? Thanks in advance.
Your best bet so dont run into any issues...Convert from ATT to Developer Edition and youll be able to flash all the latest builds and get updates long before ATT gets around to releasing theirs...
