Will not work on At&t SGH-i537? - Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello;
I have a rooted and unlocked at&t SGH-I537. MOST of the rom released have will not work on at&t SGH-I537. Is that true? Is there a way around it?
Thanks

The AT&T version of the Active currently (still) has a locked bootloader and until that gets cracked/hacked/bypassed in some manner then no, custom ROMs won't really appear at all.
All the ROMs for the Galaxy S4 will not work on the Galaxy S4 Active - they might share a lot in common but they are far from being the same phones.
Just have to be patient and hope a small miracle happens, but considering the already waning interest in the GS4A, it might never happen sadly.

I figured this phone would really take off...but at&t isn't really pushing this phone anymore. All I know is this is the last carrier specific phone I buy.

I thought this was going to be the last phone I buy for a few years, I guess I was wrong.

I have to admit I think the screen is killer on this phone. Way better than the amoled on the s4.

I prefer this screen too

Well this is a bummer, is there any new news on this situation? I kinda figured since it's an att exclusive phone it would have some limitations on the ROM front, but there isn't even one legitimate ROM out there for this awesome device?

There are no ROMs specifically for the I537, however...
Safestrap allows you to install (up to 4, theoretically) most any ROM out there at this point for primarily experimentation since there's only one that appears to be working properly but there's a specific sequence you have to follow to get everything working. You can find all the info you need as well as Safestrap in that thread located here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448942
The only ROM that's working as I just mentioned is this one, the AOSP port of the Google Edition for the I9295 (the International GS4A):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2406177
With Safestrap you can "install" a ROM that goes onto the native internal storage of the device, runs from the native internal storage, and now because of Hashcode's update has the full performance expected (all 4 cores recognized and working).
I currently have the stock MF3 ROM (the AT&T junk) install as expected, and then I installed Safestrap (updated to the newest one released on Sunday morning), added it as a recovery method, created a new slot (of the 4 you get) for the AOSP ROM, grabbed the ROM itself, the MF3 kernel modules which get the actual hardware like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functional (of which there are MF1 modules for the MF1 stock ROM available too), then the camera fix zip created/shared by LeJay to get a working camera. No you don't get all the Samsung additional stuff like HDR "Rich mode" shots, or a lot of customization at all but the camera does work for regular pics and video recording.
It runs very well, posts benchmarks well past the standard GS4 (meaning using stock ROMs for it), and the HTC One as well so it's great.

Graviton and S4 active
Just as an FYI I just got the Graviton ROM working on my S4 Active. Pretty much followed the same steps as Broadband. It just took some guess as to which kernel to choose. I also chose the i9505 model. The wifi fix works for this as well. I'm about to try the camera fix and the menu/back key fix

any one know if Samsung is planning to bring KitKat to S4 Active?

@Srolfe657 Did you ever get the camera working with the Graviton ROM? If so how?

It looks like there might be 2 ROMs out there that might work.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-active#romList
I haven't tested them but I'm looking into it... I purchased my Active used and it was already rooted... currently running 4.2.2 and I want 4.4.2 so bad!!!!

Safestrap 3.65 not working
Has anyone gotten safestrap 3.65 to work I installed it seem to go smoothly then power cycle and no splash screen so I cant get into it . Should I be using CWM ? if so what version there isn't one listed for the s4 active.
Thanks for any help

[Q] Will T-Mobile update the original Note ?

Has there been any indication if T-Mobile will update their original Note to JB 4.1? With AT&T's leaked JB 4.1 update , I'm curious if anyone has heard one way or another where T-Mobile might be with this.

Yeah that is a good question. Along with the Note I'm curious if they're going to also drop the JB update for the SGS2.
I hope they do update the Note soon though. I just updated my SGS3 and I really like Google Now.
I hope they do. I loved it on my gs3! I didnt wanna root but might have too. Is there a note 2 rom available?

Along with the benefits of the upgrade to 4.1 Jellybean , the original Galaxy Note is getting the Premium Suite upgrade. No word on if/when T-Mobile may pass this along officially.
I've seen the Samsung page about this, and listened carefully at TMoNews.com. Anyone heard or seen anything new about this?
Unless you're really hung up on the premium suite, I don't see any reason not to go to CM10. I'm using a nightly and 4.2.2 is very stable and fast. I can't believe how smooth the screen transitions are, generally a faster phone overall and you're not stuck with all the other bloatware. I do miss wifi calling, but my coverage has somewhat improved where I live. I also have Google Now, which I'm still playing with. I too got sick of waiting for the 4.1.2 update. So if we could get the premium suite and TMO wifi calling ported over to our CM10 distro, it would be perfect IMHO.
I agree that CM10 is a great stable fast rom, but it would be nice for Samsung and T-Mobile to give a little support to our phones. I personally would like to see the Suite make it's way down to us, even as a flash alone package from a dev. But considering the lack of devs for our devices, I won't hold my breath.

I have given up on waiting. Galaxy Note users on Tmobile is so low that I have a feeling they couldn't careless for us anymore if we get the JellyBean update or not. I am here in XDA right now looking for the best custom ROM for the original Galaxy Note. My GNote's stock firmware is already giving me the Windows98-bloated-and-slow effect.
So far I'm leaning more on the Padawan ROM, although not officially for Tmobile, I'll take chance because of the support for the S-Pen. Besides I'm reading on some post that it works.
[UPDATE]
No go on the Padawan. Too much hassle. I need my phone to work, right away. Instead of debugging it, I just installed AvatarROM. I need Wifi Calling though. Please help.

Why it is so quiet here ?

Hi,
is there any reason because it is so quiet in S4 Active Rom section ?
On my old device HTC sensation i could flash five news rom a day, if i want.
ok we have a deoxed stock and one nearly working CM 10.2.
Last days, i saw for 2 hours, a S4 Active Miui thread, it is deleted.
i wish me a AOSP AOKP CM & MIUI Rom for our "better" S4.
And i want to flash @ minimum twice a day but it seems i have to wait.
i hope there would be a big customrom scene in the future for i9295.

Yes there is - its called "SAMSUNG". You may ask why? Basically it comes down to this: Samsung announced the S4 heavily and sold it a few months before announcing the S4A. The result: No one bought the S4A because they own the S4 already. Why should they update? In my case the screen and the additional protection was worth waiting a bit longer but for most other users... Also many of them will be on a two year contract and selling their device to get a new one isn't an option (Not just warranty wise).
To sum it up: Samsung released too many devices in a too short time and the S4A was too late.
Also look at their release sheme: totally locked up in the US, more open - but really late - in most of the european countrys. Not very tempting for devs... I sincerly hope for a few latecomers otherwise I may have to learn to program myself :silly:
So im realy happy that LeJays Rom is running
But since my first SE P800 i was always nervous in Rain and sport actions to frag my Smartphone.
Now i am a bit relaxed if it starts to rain or if i starts to sweat
And i think also i would never buy a normal S4 because i dont like the over-colored and blue Oled displays.
So in my opinion the S4A is the better S4.

This x2. I only bought the S4A because I was in Hawai'i at the release time (S4s are around 1k here and S4As are going for $1200 bucks). I was using a Rugby Smart and decided that I wanted JB (or at least ICS), GB just wasn't cutting it any more. Personally I don't care about ROMs, only root so I'm still happy with my S4A.
Everyone I know here either bought the S4 or iFail 5, and now that both of those have waterproof cases the S4A isn't even a consideration for them. They think it's cool that I don't 'need' a case for the waterproofing, but it's not really a big deal any more. Plus S4s are coming available 2nd hand, the S4As aren't (yet).
Well here's the good news:
Hashcode just posted Safestrap for the GS4A I537 (the US AT&T model specifically) in another thread (you can find it yourself) and it works fine so far in my testing.
So this means - TADA!!! - that we can now play around with our AT&T GS4A's at will without messing up the stock ROM which we can't even replace at this point.

Specific for the I537, there are two current ones:
[AOSP][Port]★I9295★ Official 4.2.2 - S4 Google Edition - Feel the Experience of Nexus
which is the one I'm using at this very moment, just got it installed in slot 1 using Safestrap, and I also flashed the kernel modules that Hashcode packaged and are required to get the Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc working - the camera does NOT work on that ROM as of yet, it's a very common problem with custom ROMs and different devices, especially a port like that one, so work is in progress to fix it. As long as you can totally absolutely live without any camera usage at all, everything else seems to be working just fine but realize I just installed it and I'm testing features right now even as I'm finishing this post.
The other ROM available is the CM10.2 Android 4.3 build located here:
[ROM][Unofficial/Experimental][Android 4.3] CyanogenMod 10.2 for SGS4A (int'l)
Now, I've tried to install that one several times since last night but it fails on the build check. I've modified the build.prop file to match what the I537 is and should be detected as but I've had zero success so far. I'm not the best ROM "modder" out there so perhaps someone else with more skill and experience could modify that ROM so it will install on the I537 and we can see how Android 4.3 works on it - I'm fine with some of the hardware potentially not functioning as long as it allows for installing it and firing it up.
So far, so good. The AOSP ROM is working without issues that I've noted. Just ran Antutu 4.0.1 for the hell of it and got 22188 - now again, I just finished installing that ROM, it's been rebooted maybe 3 times in the past 30 minutes, and of course we all know ROMs take time to "settle" on a device so I expect that score may go up a bit after a few days of using this ROM. Yes I miss the camera but I can deal with it presently, and I can always reboot into the stock ROM anytime if absolutely necessary.
Just for the record, my "high score" with Antutu 4.0.1 with this GS4A was 25946 right after I bought it, which placed it above the HTC One by a small amount. That put a big smile on my face, but I've yet to achieve that score again.
This thing is a win-win now...
<oh geez, this is post number 420 for me...>
EDIT: Update - Bluetooth is working fine for me with the AOSP ROM as well, just paired up with my Jawbone JAMBOX in a few seconds, seemed to connect much faster than the stock ROM, actually, and it sounds better as odd as that might sound. Perhaps some improvements in the Bluetooth stack, I have no idea, or I might just be hearing things.

[Q] Galaxy S5 Active

So I just got the AT&T S5 Active, the best comparison I could find is on GSM Arena, and its the not exact chipset label, slightly different so I'm hesitant to try putting a rom on it.
Any dev's care to try and help me out to figure out if a S5 ROM will work, without actually trying to put one on, and bricking my phone?
I'm not sure how the process works but I'm sure there is a test or something I can run without bricking my phone on a first attempt to put on a rom.
Bump!
Anyone else on here have a S5 Active that would like to know the same?
I have an S5 Active as well and want to put a custom ROM too. I really like the Xtrestolite ROM.

Hello!!
I have the s5 active, our bootloaders are locked just like the S5 ATT/VZW. You can install safestrap and flash any ROM that will work on the ATT S5 only. Xposed framework works, safestrap works, black theme works " need a few files from the international variant for black dialer/incallui to work right. I left mine stock, rooted via towel root, de bloated all the junk, black themed and Xposed framework tweaks. I just find stuff in the S5 threads and if I like I try lol..

It's alright but I want to be able to install android l when it comes out not two three years down the road when Samsung gets to it. And be able to use Xposed and get my 8 shortcuts back on my lockscreen. The heart rate monitor and the ability to take a double picture and funny noises while unlocking are all cute features but I need functional not cute features. So am I going to have to return my device for a different brand?

Is there not an official sub-forum/thread anywhere for this phone? I don't have the phone yet but have been searching to find some sort of development to decide if I should buy one. I really like this phone but no development is a deal breaker for me. I know this phone isn't at the top of the popularity list and that's probably why. My interest peaked when towel root made its debut and I've been itching to buy one ever since.
Can anyone else confirm that most/all at&t s5 goodies also work for the s5 active?

No such thing as s5 active roms supposedly. I haven't been keeping up with the forums for these anymore since this one is about it.

You can flash ROMs after you root the phone by following this thread; S5 regular roms will work, just not the active button.

You better return it then. Our phones have a locked bootloader. Locked bootloader means no kernel which means no alternative roms that don't use the stock touchwiz kernel.

[Q] Using S5 ROM on S5 Active?

Hey, it's me again. I just got my S5 Active back from the Samsung Repair Center, and I was wondering since it already has its warranty voided, I should just root it.
The S5 and S5 Active are very similar, so should I be able to run an S5 Cyanogenmod ROM on my Active? I haven't found any S5A CM11 ROMs yet... Thanks. I believe the model is SM-870A. I was looking at this version from XDA. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2777265
Um.. No...you need an unlocked bootloader to flash that... Also that's in the unfied dev section..:what:. Pick a rom from the AT&T forum.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using XDA Free mobile app
Thats a negative sir. above post answers why. you can only use roms that can be loaded with safestrap.
Currently, I believe there is only one custom ROM made solely for compatibility with the active. Its tricky because there are indeed a couple software and hardware differences between the devices
There seems to be alot of mods for S5 Active http://forum.xda-developers.com/sitesearch.php?q=galaxy s5 active rom but all of those are for some damn AT&T model Anyone has idea if mods for international models are coming or are they so different from each other that it takes lots of time?

I would also want to know that. I FINALLY got my hands on one of those international SGS5 Active and i have to say amazing phone with sh*ty touchwizz

I am sad.

This place is dead. Generic S6 forum is not much better. We have root, but nobody is doing anything with it.
Yeah.. it's seriously making me think of switching devices. I'm used to many custom roms, unlocked bootloaders, xposed, etc.. and this isn't cutting it for me. Sure, great device but.. I'm just not feeling it.
What is it you are wanting? We have cleanrom and a few other debated options and an available framework to let you customize the crazy outta your touchwiz. As far as AOSP or CM, give it time. It's a new device, a lot of hands are on it and after some time, more options will be available. When I bought my G2 on release day, it was a month before root and another before good rom options showed up and even longer before stable rom options we're brought to the table.

I don't understand why people buy a phone like this an expect a ton of development on it. Everyone knows AT&T locks bootloaders so there will be no AOSP ROMS for this device, especially with it packing an exynos processor. The root exploit has been patched in 5.1.1 so don't expect root unless you plan on tripping KNOX or never upgrading again. People really need to do research before they go out and buy a phone. If you need that much development, buy a nexus.

Exactly. I knew this going into getting another ATT phone (Active). It was either getting a phone I knew would work out of the box or getting a toaster oven with an 810 SOC. HTC and LG both failed this year IMHO and OPO2 will also be throttling back the 810 2.1 SOC. I wanted the active because of the bigger battery, but if those wanted ROMs on a S6 they should have just bought an international model outright.
I bought this phone expecting no development. The fact there's even root and roms for it is more than enough for me.

I went from a Nexus 5 (chronic flasher) to a no root Note 4 (now obviously s6) and I discovered that not having root or a million roms to flash caused almost zero issues. Having root and debloated roms on the s6 makes me completely happy. I just flashed XtraStoLite and it's awesome, even more customization and you choose only Samsung apps you want.
I haven't even rooted yet. Works fine for me. First phone I didn't root right away.

Probably the built in themer.
For everyone: when you buy a phone with a locked bootloader, you buy a phone that will have very limited development support (if a hack is found all the better, but don't count on one being found, they ain't easy to find). If you buy a Lamborghini are you going to complain you can't put the turbo you saw on your friends Mazda on it?

Alliance Framework and soon 3minit. You just need to flash a deodex ROM and to top it off, we are now seeing that you can flash roms from the international thread. I will attempt this myself 4th of July weekend and post videos on my channel if successful.
Honestly I think it's quickly getting to the point where rooting will be an afterthought. I rooted my S6 Edge and flashed back to stock within a week.

It's not hard, most are just an Aroma installer. I'm running one and it works great. The only weird thing was the Aroma installer screen flashes while you're selecting options you want to add/remove. I have an ATT S6 as well.

Still Kinda new to this(Had the s4 rooted and never flashed anything till after getting the s5 which was rooted with a custom ROM) and it seems like its a different method every phone. Im trying to read up on the different threads but dont have much time usually. Need to take a day and figure it out. Thanks for the help.
I'm not asking for cm or aosp (neither appeal to me), and neither do i want some shoddy kludged together community rom.
What I'd like is to see something like Xposed,,which works without issue on a completely stock+root install.
I've been doing this since the G1 days, and i just dont have the time or patience for it anymore. I have a hobby that to me, is far more satisfying and fun than jacking around with phones.
All i really want is to remove the volume warning and the redundant wifi notification.

Xposed is in alpha or pre alpha for TW devices. So it is in the works, just a ton of bugs and the install is pretty in depth at the moment.
Don't know about the volume warning, but the WiFi notification is easy if rooted. Get the CSC editor and search for WiFi. Blank this value and reboot.

I have up on roms (TW or AOSP/CM) based a long time ago due to glitches and bugs. The last thing I ever did with root was adaway but now many all developers and websites are getting content past adaway and ABP, so no point there even.
I had a problem with my Tab S not taking the lollipop update after rooting then un-rooting which kind of soured me it in general. I got it flashed back to stock at bestbuy and updated, but settings menu still shows status as Custom even though download mode shows Knox 0x0
