Just download the official M'sian firmware from Sammobile and flash it over your 4.3 GE ROM.

BTW..does your phone still Knox free or having Knox bootloader already..?

Cuz earlier, someone made a false alarm that flashing cm10.2 from custom 4.2.2 could lead to a bootloop, thats why, im just taking a precaution, but my SELinus is still permissive hmm.gif
*
Yours is 9500 version..is it..?
This 3G version have different Knox setting than the LTE version.
Am not sure how Knox works on the 9500.

Yep, i guess its different from i9505 sweat.gif

TriamgleAway still not compatible with 9500..right..?
If I were you...I keep on flashing then as there's no point to hold any anything anymore as the binary counter cannot be reset back any longer.

Thanks for your fast feedback.. How to determine if I have Knox boot loader? I m not sure if I have as my friend did it for me... He is not around atm. That is y needed help... Noon in this thing... Previously on ios
*
- power off your phone.
- press three button combo (vol down + home + power button)
- once in download mode....press vol up..
- once in Odin mode...see if there a Knox Warranty Void 0x1..or not.?
- if got...meant your phone have Knox new bootloader already.
- if don't have the 0x0...meant your phone is on older non-Knox bootloader.


as per image below..

Owh wow they have dropbox integration biggrin.gif does it work well?

Yup..working perfectly with Dropbox but am not using it coz am prefer Box instead.

If your phone rooted...I can give you the Note3 MyFiles zip for flashing.

Just check and I do not have the Knox bootloader... Does this means I m safe?

Great..!! thumbup.gif
Yes..you save for flashing the new 4.3 stock firmware.
But bear in mind..once you flash that new 4.3 firmware..your phone will be on the Knox bootloader...meaning no more flashing for you after that.

BTW..where are you staying...KL area..?

how massive it is?
i am holding back to flash 4.3 as not too sure which custom rom that do not have knox bootloader
i have rooted mine and uninstall alot of bloatware
and change all the animation to 0.5
so far happy with it
worth upgrading  biggrin.gif  biggrin.gif
*
Quite massive till the SuperSU on 4.2.2 won't stick on stock 4.3 firmware. Need to reroot if you happen flashing the stock 4.3

I thought Omega is a non-bootloader ROM..same as Echoe and both quite to near stock firmware. hmm.gif

Duhh..your phone is rooted. Can always use TiBU to freeze or remove those TW bloatwarez.

Echoe Slim v5 Plus...remove all Samsung bloatwarez leaving only core apps in the drawer...lolz

After upgrade 4.3, I can't use my LG bluetooth 750mA charger to charge my phone anymore.

When disconnect the cable got the disconnect sound..but when connect it doesn't show charging. anybody else can confirm this?

Not sure bout S4..4.3 stock firmware but Note3 oso don't have any sound when you chuck in the charger. But the icon do show the charging sign.

My custom 4.3 ROM still have the start charging sound tho. biggrin.gif

What is the workaround bro? Does flash to custom ROM need Rooting as the pre-requisite?
*
Am not sure bout 9500.....but for 9505 your phone need to be Knox free and SELinus status on permissive. Once you've Knox and SELinux status enforcing...there's no safe way to root the phone.

Unless the custom ROM comes in .tar files where it can be flash by Odin..almost all custom ROM comes in flashable zip files that need to be flash via CWM custom recovery..hence you need a root first.

Maybe, so trying to ask other owners here.
Mine doesn't show charging, even battery widget doesn't show charging, the icon also not charging.

Have you try using your original S4 charger and see if the charging icons and sound come back or not.

hey guys, i just realized by volume button is dented and the down button is stuck due to me always putting the phone at my car door panel slot (the middle of the volume button hits right at the corner of the slot)

anyone encountered the same problem with me? and how much do you think samsung will charge to fix/replace it? should i bring it to a phone shop instead? the phone is still under warranty as i bought the phone about 1-2 months ago, but then the phone is rooted and installed with custom rom, would samsung accept it?
*
Wear and tear normally not covered by warranty but you can always go to service center and give it a try.
Volume rocker got nothing to do with rooting but it best to go to service centre with a stock unrooted phone. Just flash back your phone before go for checkup.

Works with original SGS4 charger and original SGS1 cable.

Maybe the phone won't accept charging current that less than 1A..

Guys I need help here...

Currently I'm on stock firmware but flash counter is custom.

How do I reset the counter again and unroot? Triangleaway app doesn't boot me into download mode but brings me back to touchwiz instead.

The guides online say I should flash official firmware via Odin then only use triangleaway. How is this possible when you need to root in order to use traingleaway?

Update: My phone can't boot into recovery mode but goes straight into touchwiz. What's going on? rclxub.gif
*
First of all...your phone is 9500 or 9505..?
- if 9500...forget bout TriangleAway as it's not compatible.
- if 9505...open TriangleAway..press on reset counter..the phone will boot into download mode....press power button for around 10-15sec...the phone will be off and reboot into TriangleAway mode...use vol up button toreset counter....then another vol up to reboot the phone
