The new kitkat os - Galaxy S 4 General

Hi guys
I just thought I would ask if anyone knows when the s4 i9505 international unlocked phones would be getting the new kitkat.
I had been reading into it and that they tested it on a i9505 and was sure they said that they were the first phones going to receive it so I thought I would ask you guys if you know when the i9505 would get it or is it sit and wait job like being at a hospital

Root Stock 4.3 Firmware?

Well I am Unrooting my GS3 since i have read that the official 4.3 for Verizon has been already pushed OTA. My main purpose of wanting this update is for the move to sd feature that it has. Will I be able to root the official 4.3 release? If so how? Last but not least are there any ROMs that have the Move 2 SD feature on the Verizon GS3? Thanks a lot guys

Hope that helps!
You can use the safe root method which can be found using the search. I believe it was developed for the s4. And I believe 4.3 supports move to SD as long as the app supports it

[Completed] lolipop to kitkat can it be done?

I have a galaxy s4 SGH-l337 provider is Att. I never rooted/hacked/flashed/done anything to my phone, it's all stock/basic.
Been a few days now after the android version V5.0.1 upstalled itself onto my phone. It's awful I wanted to get the new android version graviton, but before i can i need to root my phone. I haven't had success with using the popular rooting software because they do not support my version. So i am looking to revert back to kitkat and then to graviton. But, before i can revert back to kitkat i need the firmware file, and the place i went to had all but my phones model
Have i hit a dead end until lolipop works with a root program?
Thanks for the time. CraigK

[Completed] Galaxy S4 5.0.1- No Root Methods?

so I've done tons of research and lots of people
including me are complaining because there
are no roots or root methods for the new i545vrugof1 update for the galaxy s4 Verzion. for people who didn't take the Ota update, there are ways to keep your root when you update to of1 but for people who didn't take Ota update without flashing a rooted stock rom (muniz post) , there is no hope. you can't downgrade or root your device and you have no choice but to wait for a root method to come out or a new update. so anyone who is making a root for this specific firmware, please do so and help us out. I'm begging you XDA DEVELOPERS please help us out. and remember to spread awareness #rootvrugof1

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
Sorry to hear about your trouble but we cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist Fortunately, as you know, there is an XDA area dedicated to the Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 at http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-verizon where you have already posted several times in the Q&A thread. That is the most likely place where members familiar with your device will be best able to guide you. Please be patient and give the experts plenty of time to respond since Verizon's locked bootloader makes some operations much more complicated than for other S4 variants.
Good luck!

Model number problems

People I need an expert opinion here. Let me first say if I'm posting in the wrong place apologies. I have an old international Samsung Galaxy note 10.1 and stamped on the rear case it quite clearly states "Model GT-N8010". I'm trying to install a custom ROM but each one I try for that model states the model is wrong. I have successfully installed one that said it was for the N8013 and another Cyanogen one supposed to be for the N8000. I'd REALLY appreciate thoughts on what the hell is going here. Thank you for reading.

Hi John,
The N8013 firmware is the same than the N8010. It is just the US version whereas the other one is the international one, that's the only difference.
You can even flash the N8000 firmware, it wil work properly but as it is a 3G version you don't really need it on your N8010

Boot to download/ Odin mode and it will show the real model .
Rooting and custom flashing help needed
Hey, I needed some help with the same, I have a Note 10.1 by Samsung with the model number N8013ZW nad I'm trying to breathe some fresh air into it by finally rooting it but as it is my first time doing it I'm completely clueless. Can someone please direct me to an easy to follow source for amateurs?
Why do you want to root ??
