4.3 Update Rolling Out To GE S4

And it started.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...e-play-edition-samsung-galaxy-s4-and-htc-one/

Probably a dumb question, but anybody know a way to force the update? I'd really like to get my phone to 100% stock, official 4.3 firmware.

I wonder how long it takes until there is a pre-rooted flashable ROM available. So glad they are updating this phone quickly.

I used the trick of clearing Google Application Framework. Worked like a charm! I'm pulling the OTA file now before I update.

Try to pull the zip file if you can. I think you can flash it with the stock recovery.

So I got the update OTA on my T-Mobile GS4 running the rom from this thread.
Anyone know what will happen if I update? I don't know if I'll lose root, recovery, etc.

Where would the update be stored on the phone? I doubt it's somewhere easy like Download..

A quick google seems to point to /cache being its location.

I'm a noob when it comes to using command line. I checked the /cache folder after logging into to SU. But not sure where to go from there.
list shows:
lost+found
recovery
and there doesn't appear to be anything in the recovery folder, and not this is in lost+found:
#117121
?! No idea.

I am on a Google Edition I9505G, I reverted back to stock recovery and was able to flash this just fine. Your mileage may vary if you do not have a GT-I9505G. It may turn your device into a lawnmower...I just dunno.

I'll inspect when I get home. The ATT and I9505 are pretty much the same. I've been running I9505 GE ROM without issue for a bit while. If its just a kernel and system update then it should be fine. We will see shortly.

Can you still get the OTA if you are rooted? I've cleared Google Service Framework but I'm still not getting it.

Haven't noticed it mentioned on any websites yet, but a notable change is with cover view, we reverted from thin font time to Google favored fat hours & skinny minutes. Yuck.

HELP Lollipop STOCK DEODEXED ROM for SM-P905

Could someone who knows how to create a rom and have a linux pc, built a LOLLIPOP STOCK deodexed rom without any changes??? i can't do it because i can't find any kitchen that supports windows 10, please i need it to upgrade to lollipop to be able to use xposed. thanks a lot

As far as I know Xposed does not currently work with Samsung Lollipop, due to some encrypted files hard to decipher.

Yes that is why the OP is asking for a stock deodexed ROM. There is a way to get xposed working on deodexed touchwiz ROMs now.

Now xposed works with samsung roms, only deodexed one

PopaStefanx, do You have rom 502 deodex for p905. I search too....

ok I will make a rom for you but it will take few days because I just removed the hard disk which have Ubuntu and replaced it with a new one
so I need to setup everything again before I can make a rom
FYI
my laptop has 2 hard drives. so, I dual boot windows and xubuntu on it
each OS on different drive
I use archikitchen (which works only on Linux OS) to convert the official rom to a flashable zip file
then use joeldroid program to deodex the rom in the flashable zip file
there is another program for Linux to deodex but I did not use it yet
there is a guide on how to use them in the links I provided earlier
however if you thinks it is a bit hard let me know
I will see if I can post a video showing how to use them
will reply as soon as I finish the rom

Thanks a lot. I am inexperienced with Linux and stuff so I'm not familiar with it at all.

Xposed framework on stock ROM?

I've been out of the XDA game for awhile now since my last phone couldn't be rooted. I just got this phone, and immediately rooted it
Well, my question is can the xposed framework be installed on the stock ROM? Xposed seems to be really different since the last time I used it haha
If it can then what would I need to do to install it? Thanks to anyone in advance

I had the same problem with the download from XDA thread, did a google, and installed from a different link(sorry, can't remember which) ARM64 v80. Works like a charm, except APM+ module doesn't work, and I can't find a module to center clock, and full statusbar mods. Just try different download. Good luck!

Yes it's smooth but interms of features and accessibility it's a backward step.
1) Removal of screenshot button in power menu
2) Removal of most used apps in recent screen
3) Too much space wasted in headings in the notification area

Screenshot is more accessible than pressing a button, I don't use any buttons, just swipe up and screenshot is down below, except for powering off, used gestures all than time S2S and so on with clean slate kernel, 2 and 3 don't mind and don't use it at all. That's my opinion, plus on this ROM sometimes it freezes...so far on 11 nothing so far. But it all depends on who uses it...at least developers giving us an option, just stating the fact coz I used both Pixel dust caf and aosp... there's a hiccup freezes sometimes. Anyway, enough with this, this is Pixel Dust topic anyway
