I haven't tested it myself but a user on Chainfire's CF-Auto-Root thread says it is not working.

Is the motochopper exploit working with it?

I haven't tested it but it should work. A lot of users have succeeded in rooting their Qualcomm-based Galaxy S4s using Motochopper.

Separate modem and kernel packages from I9505XXUAMDM firmware are availlable for download in 3rd & 4th post.

This post was reported as a duplicate, we already have one "official stock firmware" thread for this model. Second one is not needed.

Official Android 4.3 is online!

Hi Faryaab,
Do you have any news in the I9500 version?

Samsung doesn't provide a change log list so you will have to flash it to find out. It does have a much higher change log then MF8 so it's the latest and greatest.

Anyone tested it? I just flashed MF8 and there is MG1:crying:

Oh just settled on mf8 rom, damn you Samsung

Now I have to wait 30 minutes to download again

Added it to the Original Post!

And what exactly means the number after "Changelist"? the number of changes/a code to a list/ what ?

I dont understand you guys...
We are all looking for improvements. And if Samsung publishes updates, we start whining that they do too much?
Besides that: 20 minutes after opening this thread, somebody is already asking: "...and and and??? any improvements?" I guess it takes more than 20 minutes to download it, so dont think about a report.
Afaik, no matter what firmware version we have installed: the phone is at least in a "usable" state which allows us to wait 1 or 2 days for validation of fixes in a new firmware.
Cool down, guys

Do post if you find any improvements, features or bugfixes. I will append them to the original post.

Yeah, hotfile sucks like that. Patience is a virtue unless your a crack flasher like I am

lets have a check list instead of flooding the thread with any improvements question
Check list
1. Has new camera firmware?
2. Any new applications?
3. How is the overall memory management?
4. How is the overall smoothness?
5. Any noticeable bugs?
Lets make this as a template and post feedback accordingly, it will simply save time for most people.

Don't get excited, I have compared both versions, MJ8 change list is way older than MJ7, although the compilation date is more recent; we'll wait for the next update.
