what's this mean for mf3 users using safestrap?

Will have to see if the MF3 kernal modules work on the new version. We still have to wait for a kernel Dev to fix things or Sammy to release source before we get a working ROM though.

Early word is MF3 kernel doesn't work with MI8..Could be a problem for SS users.

Makes me glad I was able to root on MDL firmware, but I hope something is figured out so everyone can enjoy it.

i wonder if it will work/flash as is on the canadian 1337m. dont want to risk a brick though, so i will wait and see, or possibly wait for a port.

I was wondering the same time, according to this YouTube video you can flash I9505 ROMS on the I337 & I337M.
Here the link to the ROM thread: Foxhound ROM
And you would also need this kernel: Faux123 US/Canadian kernel
Hopefully 4.3 can be installed as well

I doubt it will boot with any 4.2 kernel, but it will boot with the right 4.3 kernel (more on that later).
So far:
Everything seems to work except wifi. Even dirty flashed over 4.2.2.
Just got it booting this morning right before I left for work, so I didn't even try to root yet. (root from the kitchen didn't work)
Edit:
Got root access.

The lte work's?

I've heard it boots with KT 4.3 TW kernel, but not sure everything is working..Hopefully source drops within a few weeks.

Odd that KT would have a 4.3 TW kernel unless he's planning ahead. I'll check it out.

I hear ya. I am switching to TMO as soon as they have LTE in my area.
I am hoping that you guys won't have to wait for AT&T. Hopefully Hashcode can cook something up.

I am testing the KT kernel. Still no wifi. Not sure about the other stuff yet.
Edit:
ROM thread posted. Used the KT kernel just so I wouldn't have to deal with uploading source right now.

Modified sofyware

I rooted my friends relay a long time ago. Now he wants to update but it's saying he can't because the software is modified. I'm guessing this is because he is root. Any help on what to do? He has no clue how to do any of this and i am no longer near him

which version does he use? coz that is normal, there is no official update anymore since JB 4.1.2 , there is an inofficial rom in the other thread with JB 4.3 that he could flash
otherwise if he has older ICS and wanna update to jb 4.1.2, i dont know how to do this
He's on 4.1.2... That's the latest? I don't know if he will be able to figure out how to flash a recovery and flash a rom lol. Thanks for the info though

according to t-mobile it is the latest one.
(unfortunately i can not post links)
yes as LitD mentioned it is the latest, and the last official. thats why ota wont work anymore.
here is 4.3
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2463661
ChameleonOS is only one option for getting Android 4.3 on the Relay. CyanogenMod's 10.2 nightlies are now running 4.3.1, ChaOS is based on CM 10.2. Just letting you know of the options out there. No one has done any other images for our phone as of yet.

WIND Mobile M919V == 1337M Update

So I took a gamble and after checking several things.
ro.build.fingerprint=samsung/jfltevw/jfltecan:4.2.2/JDQ39/M919VVLUAMG1:user/release-keys
I went ahead and used the CM (Cyanogenmod) Windows Installer and it put on the jfltecan build onto phone. Flashed it, got one small issue during recovery (it seemed like it was spinning) rebooted phone, everything works great!
I confirm you can use the jfltecan build on M919V. I tried to use T-Mobile and even compiled CM from scratch with any changes from Wind's kernel source (from Samsung's Open Source tree). Went into boot loop, went to CWM recovery, deleted data/cache, still boot looped.
Since the M919 you would think is close to M919V but this isn't the case at all as I found out today jfltevw is a AT&T variant (nothing on google mentions this!)
So now I have Cyanogenmod 10.2 (nightly snapshot from Nov 14th) and installed ViPER4Android FX, all working all good. The device shows 3G for voice and H+ for data which seems to be correct for '4G' service.
So go ahead it should just work for you!
That's an interesting discovery, did you tried same way to install a GE 4.3 ? Will that work to ? Or an Miui ROM ?

No, M919V owners can use the M1337M ROM is what I am saying with the M919V baseband left alone.
You can flash the modem of I337M 4.3 on M919V and enable AWS Frequency, then head over to i9505 and flash customized TW 4.3 rom ! So there are no data drops on 4.3 TW roms!
Or, wait for Wind 4.3 TW update, which will be soon.
How Can you activate aws on 1337 modem ?

Help finding stock rooted 4.4.2 rom??

As stated above. Maybe I am too early but can not seem to find one. Thought it was released now from Verizon.
On the ml baseband with Scots clean rom 8.1.
Also wondering if someone can see if the new ART vm is in it. Sure would put some sand back into this aging phone.

Does not exist yet on Verizon. We're still on 4.3 TouchWiz officially with no leaks for KitKat.

Ok. Must have misunderstood some news. Was surprised anyways.
Is there others besides verizon. Maybe ported. Just asking because I need some Samsung specific features and the 4.3 rom rom is giving problems.

KitKat ROMs would probably give you even more problems because until Verizon releases KitKat we are stuck on the jelly bean kernel. Well that is if you took the update I just assumed you did.

Is the S5 slipping away?

Is it just me or has development waned for the S5 due to the locked bootloader? There's just so much you can do with safestrap and modifying Touchwiz. In reality, the odds of a bootloader unlock being discovered is rather slim. Look at the S4, the newest firmware releases are still not unlocked and you're forced to use safestrap. I realize we rely on a talented hacker out there to find an exploit that lets us replace the bootloader with a custom one OR the carrier allowing the bootloader to be unlocked. I've read somewhere that the S5 is approved for use by the U.S. Government so the likelihood of Verizon making the phone insecure by allowing people to unlock the bootloader is close to nil. I just really really want to see this phone not slip into XDA obscurity.

it is slipping away, but not because of the bootloader being locked. Not as many people (devs included) bought the phone as early adopters, so i'm guessing there's just not enough interest or intent in the phone.

That right there is why development is slow. There's only so much one can do with a stock system to work with. Expect to see development have a boost after each OTA until all mods are worked in, then the same downward slope until the next OTA. Repeat. :good:

There may be hope for that. Over in the Verizon S4 forums, they got kexec working. No aosp yet, and its very unstable, but they found it. It should work on the S5 with a little more work. Hopefully this happens this month.

I'm not sure if kexec is possible without having a SELinux permissive kernel. I believe the Galaxy s5 is enforcing unfortunately (not vulnerable).

Actually I'm running a GPE ROM on my Verizon S4 right now. It's SafeStrap compatible. I love AOSP vs TouchWiz.
Being pessimistic it does seem like the beginning of the end for s5. By this I mean to say that safestrap just doesn't cut it as I do not like stock kernel. But everyone's done an amazing job thus far so haven't completely given up but I think nexus devices are the route I will take.

to my knowledge it is in the kernel. on vzw s4 mdk devicds were unlocked allowing you to flash custom kernals that were modded by devs like ktoons to make it permissive..
The later firmware builds (cant go back to mdk if took ota to a newer firmware) are in the same boat as the s5 so if they have it on later kernal builds for the s4 then it might b possible.. then again, they have it on the note 3 but doesnt work on the s5 so that concept isnt always possible
Not slipping away. Just at a road block. Everyone has done all the modding they can do on the device. I think everyone is waiting on 5.0.

I'm working on it. It's rather difficult. It appears the kernel was compiled with no /dev/mem(kmem) character devices in the config. After going through the kernel source, it looks like SELinux was set to always enforce. This is where ro.build.selinux.enforce=1 comes from. The bootloader checks the boot.img hash and for a special cookie
Code:
SEANDROIDENFORCE
which appears before the hash. If this cookie/magic isn't present, the warranty bit will blow. Since I can't access memory directly, and the methods I could use are significantly limited because of the Enforcing status, some sort of vulnerability in the kernel will need to be present. As soon as we can get Permissive, I can get us kernel modules, and hopefully kexec with the help of a few other great devs @Surge1223 @CalcProgrammer1
Your efforts are truly appreciated!

The OP is originally from September something. I just seen this post and was interested in it, it is now November and if you ask me, yes it has slipped away, technology moves on quickly, i6+ is out and now we will start seeing things about a s6 in the works and it is what it is.
I blame the locked bootloader on a ton of stuff not being created. You have to grab ahold of technology in the moment and use it fast or else its gone before you know it.
It is certainly nothing like the S3 forums. That place is still kicking.
From what I understand they're close to kexec on it and the S4, since they only need KK-compatible kernels and they previously had unlocked bootloaders. That isn't the case here.
Samsung really screwed up with this one. If the N6 wasn't assured to be a failure on Verizon and it didn't have a massive footprint I'd be all over it.
Everybody panic.
Wish we can get some good news soon.
Dead is all I'm seeing, except for the few amazing devs we have now. Those still building, thank you
