Gear+Rooted GS4+4.3

On a 4.2 Rom the gear will work. But I've tried 4 different 4.3 Roms and gear manager says device is not supported.
Can I asked if anyone is using 4.3+Gear. What Rom are you using?

Same boat for me tried 4.3 last night and couldn't get it to finish installing the second wave of files.

I have 4.3 on my i9505 and it's working flawlessly with my GG
it's the leaked firmware

Nice thanks for the reply. I'll try firmware and not Rom. Just have to be very careful. Missing with that stuff if you don't know what your doing can brick your phone.

the leaked 4.3 it's only available for the i9505 variant, if i'm not mistaken
do not flash it on any other device

Although im very tempted to download it to my VZ GS4. So I can have all aspects of the Gear working. Just need some confirmation this will work on US models. Until then I guess US SCH-i545 will have to wait.

you can have 4.3 on your SCH-i545 by installing the Android 4.3 Google Play Edition Firmware, however it's plain stock, no TouchWiz
search here on xda forums

Cool thanks.

If I seen it then I wouldn't have posted, I couldn't find anywhere if there's a custom recovery
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

The answer is No because of the locked bootloader.

To the OP, when they hack the bootloader on our phones we can then start using custom recoveries and ROMs. Nothing but root until then.

Unless Hashcode gets safestrap working then we can flash custom roms but being restricted to the stock kernel. Well, there is a chance for kernels to but this is all still in its infancy.

Safestrap for kit kat?

I just installed the new safestrap for kit kat and was wondering can I go back down to 4.3 ROMs if I flash them?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app

Yea kinda barely noticed...but can u answer my question? ..I see u on drakeys forums so I'm assuming ud know a little something about this
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app

Yes but you will also need 4.3 boot.img and 4.3 aboot.

Wait! How is safe strap available if we don't have root for 4.4 yet? If I missed something let me know where I can find root.?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I would assume the only way this can be done is with the kit Kat leak flashed via safestrap with root already injected in

what the new safestrap is for is so you can install mods, tweaks, themes, and etc while already on a pre-root kitkat rom without having to go through odin to get it done

It is only for custom ROMs at this time since we don't have root for both MLG and NC2.

Thank you for clarifying that for me. I guess if we want to enjoy the OTA rooted we're going to have to be patient. ?

Is there anyway to fix this?

I have tried odin, heimdall, and I also tried the debrick method.

Follow to a T, you'll be on mj5. I think you're trying to flash mi9 firmware from the rdlv method but you're on a2 bl already.

This also seems to be a problem.
It won't let me write to anything.

looks like your using safestra 3.75 on a JB rom, you need the 3.70 safestrap for JB

How can I put the proper version on or put a rom on? Heimdall still is not working

when you boot into safe strap verify what version safestrap is,
if it is 3.75 then you need to install a KK version of rom, if it is 3.70 then you will have to install a JB rom
also what is your goal? keeping Bootloader A2 or getting the latest NC2 which is bootloader A3

I would like the latest. NC2

First try N900AUCUCMLG 4.4.2 KitKat install one click version
then with Odin 3.09 (attached) install N900AATTCNC2_KERNEL.tar.md5.zip Kernel so towel root will work, then install busybox then safestrap 3.75
that should get you going so you can install any custom AT&T KitKat rom
Last option to get you going, but it installes A3 bootloader
