Hi,
I've been using SGS4 GT-I9500 for a year and decided to root it today and it worked.
but then I'm confused about what to do next, someone told to me to instal CWM than I can use custom rom.
so if there is anyone could help me what to do to my phone after rooted, please help me what to do next.
thank you.
Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9500
Android 4.4.2

Hi there!
Well, there's a few different recoveries for your device.....and many roms as well.
The best thing I can do is give you the links to the sections that contain them....and you can do a little research and decide what recovery and ROMs are best for you.
There's 2 sections. Android Development and android original development. Most the recoveries will be found in original development. And ROMs are in both.
>*Samsung Galaxy S 4 i9500, i9505, i9505G, i9506*>*Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development
>*Samsung Galaxy S 4 i9500, i9505, i9505G, i9506*>*Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development
Please read read read...carefully. And be sure whatever you flash is indeed for your device. Follow instructions to the letter as well.
Good luck!

what's the difference between android development and original development?
which one better for my device? i mean the safe one.
thank you.
Original development is exactly that....original work. The regular development section is mostly ROMs made that are based on the original ROMs.... With some changes.
Whats stable is a question you need to discover yourself....by reading the ROM threads....usually the opening post or two for sure...then the last few pages. Or you can simply backup what you have in recovery and start flashing and find out what's good for your needs.

And everything we do here with our phones comes with risks. Always.
So read up and learn and understand..... Before you do anything.

I just confused about the step.
Yes, recovery, then ROM. Again....read carefully before doing anything.

SORRY! But I'm Disabled & only understand about 1/100th of what has been posted regarding this DUMB GD PHONE!
I don't own a computer & I have very little patience with Computer Syntax & general Computer Mum-Bo-Gum-Bo BS;!
I tried Towelroot v3 & it says it's not supported. I used Root Checker Basic & it says it's not properly rooted. I tried using Titanium Backup & it says could not acquire root privileges. Please verify that your ROM is rooted, and try again
Says attempt was made using the "/system/xbin/su" command. ??? Whatever the F#%K does that mean???
My overall goal is 2 jailbreak this phone & get rid of 100s of useless apps & irritating pop-ups every 2 minutes. I'd like
the overall FREEDOM of being able to do what I want to do without being extorted by AT&T or any other monopolistic corporate Giant!!!
I probably should have posted this under the "Dumb Questions" Section!
HELP, HELP, & HELP! Can Someone PLEASE ADVISE!!!
Hi,
Here would be a good place to ask for help with that device...
> Samsung Galaxy S 4 i9500, i9505, i9505G, i9506 > Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [HELP THREAD] Galaxy S4 | Ask any question | Noob friendly
I should advise you, this stuff does take a lot of work at times, lots of reading and learning, more reading, Troubleshooting issues... And... More reading. ?
You may want to reconsider if this sounds unappealing. Without all the reading, things can go wrong quickly, trying to do things without some knowledge up front.
Good luck, hope you get it worked out!

Oh, and some things just aren't going to be possible without access to a computer unfortunately.
Thank you. Thread closed.
In the thread created by saranhai it is stated that
YOU MUST FLASH THE T999UVUEMJ4 MODEM, T999UVUEMJC MODEM OR THE T999UVUENC2 MODEM FOR T-MOBILE GALAXY S III IN ORDER FOR DATA TO WORK; OTHERWISE YOU WILL NOT HAVE DATA
ALSO, IF YOU OWN A SGH-T999V AND HAVE UPDATED TO ANDROID 4.4.2 (VLFNF1), YOU CAN ONLY USE THE 4.4.2 MODEM!
AS USUAL, I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR DEVICE! ONE WRONG MOVE (Especially with the Modem) AND YOU COULD END UP WITH A VERY EXPENSIVE BRICK. PROCEED AT OWN RISK.
When you scroll down on the website you will find that there are 4 links to 4 things labeled
"
-StockMOD Custom ROM-
A ROM aimed at giving you the core features of TouchWiz, and much more!
-StockMOD ROM-
Completely based on Stock ROM, little to no changes.
-Community Section-
A place for all of the previously uploaded ROMs, the Mods Center, and Signature Banners!
-F.A.Q-
Answers to (Hopefully) all your questions

After clicking on "-StockMOD Custom ROM- A ROM aimed at giving you the core features of TouchWiz, and much more! " you will find that it will give you a link to the required modem. Unfortunately, when I click on "-StockMOD ROM- Completely based on Stock ROM, little to no changes. " it says under "prerequisites" that I need the T999UVUEMJC Modem but with no link given. I am having trouble finding this modem. In addition, I tried searching up T999UVUEMJC Modem on google in hope for finding the actual download, but I was not able to find anything (im unsure about some of the downloads)

Hi,
Sorry for the late reply!
You can ask in the rom thread you linked in your second post. Because you have not reached 10 constructive posts yet, it will automatically post your question in your devices Q&A section. ?
If that doesn't help you, you can ask for help here,
> Samsung Galaxy S III I9300, I9305 > Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [HELP THREAD] Galaxy S3 Ask any question.
Good luck!
Thank you. Thread closed.
Hi im currently using a Galaxy S4 running aokp_jflte_kitkat_nightly_2014-10-18, Android 4.4.4.
I have a problem that when i restart or turn on my phone the time and the date has changed from what it was when i turned it off, it usually changes a few years into the future.
I have tried every possible setting with time but i cant seem to fix it.
How do i fix it?
Please help!
Hi,
The best place to ask about this is in the thread you downloaded the rom from. Make sure you read the opening post or 2 carefully to see if its a known issue. And read the last few pages to see if anyone is talking about the issue or has a fix.
Good luck!
ehm
Thing is that i downlaoded it directly from aokp...
They likely have a thread here. But I'll need to know your version of S4 to find it.
It's a 9505
Here you go,
> Samsung Galaxy S 4 i9500, i9505, i9505G, i9506 > Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development > [ROM] AOKP [Nightlies]
Rom issues are always best asked about in the rom threads. But do read the opening post carefully, and the last several pages to see if the issue is being talked about and maybe even the fix. Then post your question if not.
And note, until you reach 10 constructive posts on XDA, your post will automatically be placed in a Q&A thread for that Rom in your devices Q&A section.
Good luck!

Hi,
Here is your device section. Any roms for it will be found in the i9500 Android Development and i9500 original Android Development sections. You can browse through and see what appeals to you. And flashing instructions are usually in post number one or so.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4
General information can be found in the general section, and questions in the future can go in the Q&A section.
Good luck!
hi! im new in android iwant to know that is it good for me to install custom rom in my i9500 if it is then tell me how!!
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. It's definitely fine to install a custom ROM on your device. However, being a beginner you'll need to do a lot of reading to familiarise yourself with the device and the process of unlocking it and installing custom firmware. Don't rush into it, people who rush end up bricking (destroying) their phone, take your time and do a lot of reading so you're sure that you know what you're doing before you actually attempt anything. You'll find the Galaxy S4 device forum here:
Samsung Galaxy S 4 i9500, i9505, i9505G, i9506
Good luck!
