I have Cm11 on my Samsung GT-I9506 and I have the problem that I can't fool the system that i have stock rom installed. Even when I got the apk, it wouldn't install on CM11, only on stock rom. How could I solve it?
Hi,
If it's an app made for Samsung, it likely depends on the touchwiz framework, so it'll never install on anything other than stock.
If that's not the case, you can ask about it here...

Hi,
So today as i was installing the exposed module i managed to soft brick my phone. I am really new to android as its my first decent phone, I used to own an apple device and through out the time i learnt to mod it in lots of way so i thought this may be simple too. Now I complete panic state. I bought an S4 GT-I9505 and after installing an exposed module my device wouldnt boot. So then i tried reflashing the firmware with odin but because that didnt work i went to cyanogen-mod and stated messing about and ended up installing this driver into my s4 (see image attached). Now my phone isnt even recognised be odin, i am so scared and so nervous. Would somebody please just be able to help me and tell my what i should do?
I want to learn the android system but this is just really freaking me out... I would be EXTREMELY grateful if someone could just tell me what to do to just be able to boot my phone up again
Hi
I'm sorry but I can give you a direction for searching a way for troubleshooting, but it's not a support forum

I downloaded a CWM file but, it always shows up as a disc image. How do I fix this? I have a samsung Galaxy S4 SGH- I337, 4.4.2 and I have rooted my phone.
Hi,
Since the extension of the file is ".img" it will show up as a disk image. To get your device specific cwm and to know how to flash it, you need to ask it in the S4 dedicated Q and A section:

Hi,
Is this the exact rom thread?

If so, asking there for help would be best. Until you reach 10 constructive posts, your post will automatically be placed in the Q&A section for your device. But it's the best way to find rom specific help.
If you need further help or have other questions or issues, here is a good place to ask...

I have S4 with 4.4.2 Kitkat with NH8 update. This phone is in Philippines and locked to a local provider "Globe telecom"
I have tried Towelroot meethod as well as 7-8 other methods i found on the web to root this phone but nothing seems to work despite following every process to the tee multiple times.
My question - Post the NH8 update, is there any real possible genuine way of rooting the S4 or should i stop trying?
