One person thinks they've locked the bootloader though. I'd be careful.

I'm going to wait for some Dev to come out with stock rooted. You could go to unrooted stock then get the ota.
BTW source is up

Who woulda thought a Monday wold be such a great freakn day!!!!!!! Awesomeness to wake up to (yes... I woke up at 2pm -___-). Orgasm everywhere.... :good: :victory:

I'm hoping the tar doesn't take as long to show up as MDL. I'll wait and see what the options are and if it affects hotspot.

shabbypenguin has informed us that the bootloader is not locked! And was able to reinstall root normally and custom recovery.

Oh thank god!

Anyone who's unlocked and rooted but STOCK try installing yet? I'm hoping that goes smoothly... it used to with the S3, although you'd lose root, but if it can be easily re-rooted as reported here than that's no biggie.

I tried but I tried with a custom recovery and it fails. Shabbypenguin knows the exact way.

Ok. So just to clarify. I just got my s4 today. If I update it does not affect rooting options and bootloaders already out? I could root and trwp? Thanks

But on a positive note: This is exciting, 3.x is a decent upgrade from 2.6.35.
I can't wait to see everything get integrated, and see this in CM9

Safestrap download

So I'd still been using Aospizza but wanted to remove it and safestrap, but I accidentally removed the safestrap apk from my SD card before I removed the backup. The problem is that all of the safestrap links are dead now. Does anyone have a link or can they attach the apk?

A simple Google search would have worked too... -_-
If you cant get it from there then unlock your bootloader and RSD lite to stock, that should wipe it off.

OSE Rom for the Sprint S4

Hey everybody! First off I take no credit for the rom I'm posting about.
Anyone found out there's OSE Rom Android 4.4.2 Sprint S4 builds for us? Well I found the Rom over the Verizon S4 forums and I've been running it now for a week or so and its a superb, smooth, feature packed Rom. Here's the thread link. You'll find jfltespr nightly builds there........... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2492235
Again, I take no credit. Just wanted to put this info out there for everyone. Thnx and peace to all.

This is confirmed working on the i537 AT&T leaked 4.3? Screenshots if you have please, just curious. I'm still on 4.2.2 stock w/ SafeStrap installed. Didn't really look into getting 4.3 leaked since only root methods supposedly had malware. :fingers-crossed:
Screens hots are borked in the leak but trust me in have already flashed a lock screen mod and can confirm it worked
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I537 using xda app-developers app
Sweet deal, I'll check it out when I get a little free time off from work. I won't be able to get any OTA/Official updates from AT&T for my i537 anyways since I switched to Tmo last year. Locked BL sucks!

Look at my list of previous devices. All have been modded mainly with info from XDA. I have been my own guinea pig plenty of times, I assure you.
I'm not saying you cant...I discovered this worked for our device by going out on a limb a trying it. If I could get the ota I would have already tried.

Proof

I DID NOT MAKE THIS AT ALL ONLY FOLLOWING UP
Here are a few Pictures of Loki working on the Sprint LG-LS955 I will not release how it is done because its not my work !!!! If you want to thank someone thank Shellnutt for his hard work point blank. I am only testing, Please do not flood this with remarks. Just tring to show people that we are working on it. There is no eta as we need kernels to test and Roms. Show if you are a builder please feel free to pm me with a kernel to test. Im sure that it will be ported to all Flex models. So I would say go back to the bounty and start give these people something to work for.
Thank you for understanding
Hopefully there will soon be for all
Wow great work guys! Fingers cross for D959.
Well thank you for sharing. I'm confused though. What it's it you need to test? Are you saying you need a stock flashable sprint kernel? I'm sure either me or matt will download whatever files we need and make it for you.

Honesty I wouldn't advise it unless you're prepared to go back to stock. We don't even know what's locked but if this is what it is then it would flash.
Oh I didn't even know that there was a bounty. I could careless about that. I do this for fun.
