Well first off, welcome to xda.
Now, let me refer you to one of the forum rule: Search before posting.
There are quite a few guides (stickied) on how to flash which you should read.
Here's a good read to start with: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350266
Once you understand what you're doing, you can move forward with flashing. Know that there are risks of bricking your phone.
Ok now here goes spoon feeding (still at your own risk): *make sure your pc recognizes your phone*
Files you'll need:
Odin One Click KK4 with bootloaders: http://hotfile.com/dl/137865417/4bc...S_Bootloaders_Re-partition_Full_Wipe.zip.html
Corn Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26710533&postcount=1
The ROM+ their respective Gapps you want to flash (put it on your internal memory, both files found in the thread's OP): ...
-Go in recovery and make a nandroid backup (if you don't know how to get in recovery, read some more)
-Put your phone in Download mode and plug it to your pc
-Open Odin One Click KK4 and flash the ROM *Make sure it doesn't get disconnected, otherwise = Brick*
-Boot up the phone and make sure USB Debugging is enabled
-Flash Corn Kernel has per the instructions in the post
-Go in recovery, wipe cache/dalvik
-Flash the JB ROM *twice*
-While still in recovery, Flash the Gapps
-Let the phone boot up (will take a while since you cleared dalvik)
-Enjoy
If you do everything correctly, it will go fine but you need to go read on what you're about to do first and understand it.
Note that some ROMs have their own specific instructions in their OP which you will have to follow instead of the ones I gave you (Like CM10 and CM10.1).
Good luck

It's the only download link that I have. It's taken from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1300843
I'd suggest to use a different browser if it's not working.
You can get the latest tar file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2522810 or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2258107.

This is for those who are getting contact boot loops on the Galaxy S4 logo
For those who are having a constant boot loop or stuck on the Galaxy S4 screen we (omariscal1019 and I) found a solution. After upgrading to MJA I started to try to get root working and ended up changing something that I shouldn't since it started to boot loop and get stuck on the Galaxy S4 logo.
I thought all was lost and put OctOS for now, waiting for the MJA tar to get posted, but omariscal1019 helped me out made a custom backup with Philz's Recovery in the TWRP format. I was able to successfully boot after restoring boot and system and then wiping data/cache (factory data reset). Here are the files omariscal1019 shared with me and we would like to share with the others in the same situation. I'll try to get more details in a bit up

Make sure to flash with Odin after getting your system to boot properly.
NOTE: This is for only those who can flash Phil'z recovery with Odin and successfully boot into that recovery to restore these backups. Use at your own risk and listen to what others say. We have confirmed that the system/boot works, but only by following the directions below. The modem and radio files are yet to be determined if they work...
Download the files and place them in TWRP/BACKUPS/110c8480 (not sure on the last folder name, that is what was in my TWRP backups folder). Inside that one (110c8480) place the 2013-10-31.21.01.21_JSS15J.L720VPUEMJA folder. So in the end you should have the following path: TWRP/BACKUPS/110c8480/2013-10-31.21.01.21_JSS15J.L720VPUEMJA.
One other reason on wanting to restore this system partition is this backup was taken after it was rooted. So after restoring this backup you will have a working root with no Knox messages Let me know if you have issues or questions
I just wanted to say a big thanks to omariscal1019, reverepats, and KelevrA_8. omariscal1019 for getting my the files to fix my phone, reverepats for letting us use some of his hosted space, and KelevrA_8 for finding the fix for the sound issues. Make sure you send your thanks to them.
Detailed Instructions
TWRP Format System/Boot Restore
Use Odin and flash Phil'z Recovery at http://d-h.st/users/philz_touch/?fld_id=18376#files
I used philz_touch_5.18.2-jfltespr.tar.md5
Download the files listed above (I'm uploading the zip to a hosting site now)
Boot into Recovery (Power + Volume Up)
Select Backup and Restore
Select Custom Backup and Restore
Select TWRP Backup & Restore
Select Restore from TWRP Format
Uncheck all boxes except for boot (boot should only have the x)
Select Start Custom Restore Job
Select which storage place you put the folder (internal is sdcard and external_sd is sdcard1)
Select 110c8480/2013-10-31.21.01.21_JSS15J.L720VPUEMJA (if you can't find it in Philz recovery try moving the folder with the date to a differnet folder where your typical recovery backups go)
Select boot.emmc.win
After it restores boot it will take you back to the list of partitions. Deselect boot and select system, and this time select system.ext4.win000
Then after that go to the main menu by hitting back a few times and select Wipe Data/Factory Reset and then reboot the device

Here is a backup of the radio/modem files. I used Phil'z but I didn't do a TWRP backup this time I did a normal custom backup. I also did another one in the twrp format and I am uploading it now as well:
http://www.fileswap.com/dl/1WxPRFZFiP/2013-11-01.12.51.47_JSS15J.L720VPUEMJA.zip.html
Here is the TWRP version: http://www.fileswap.com/dl/Gchsi8LKq6/2013-11-01.MJA.modem-radio-TWRP.zip.html and a better file name for the other: http://www.fileswap.com/dl/bTakvZPpJ/2013-11-01.MJA.modem-radio-CWM.zip.html
This didn't fix me up. I tried anyway just to make sure but I can't get into recovery so that isn't an option for me.
I've updated the links on the first post, and added modem and radio zips
So if i'm understanding correctly this is a work-around for rooting without flipping Knox off?
So before i update to MJA here is what i think i have to do, pls correct me if i'm wrong.
(Im rooted on stock rom/bootloader MF9)
-Unroot and go back to stock
-Flash MJA
-Follow the instructions on this page to get back root
-Enjoy (Hopefully?)
It seems that i would never have to data wipe either so i can preserve most of my setting too!

Hello. I have found too confusing to find right thread about root for s4a 9295. Most threads about root are mixed with i537, so i think separate thread for 9295 regarding it will be good decision.
Instruction:
1. Install custom recovery via Odin (i use recovery by Mythi, look for the download link in his thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2752469);
2. Donload Superuser zip UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99r3.zip
3. Copy su.zip to sdcard or internal memory;
4. Download in recovery mode;
5. Choose install zip from sd card (if zip on internal memory) or Choose zip from storage/sdcard1 (if zip on external sd card);
6. Install UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99r3.zip;
7. After instaling, choose reboot to system, if recovery ask to fix root rights, choose NO;
8. After boot, start super user app and confirm disabling for Knox;
9. Conglaturations, you are rooted.

Thanks
Gerardo Mar.
yes it function, thx
I did this also but whit out these instructions... i went to hit yes when rebootting... The phosne is rooted yes, but i can't moun't back up..or flash anything else... does new reboot help???
Okay.. i did everything.. i re-flashed supersu, booted, re-booted and said no to rootfix.. Usb debugging on , and supersu apk setting checked and there is head user allowed..
I tried to make back up again but it did not work.
CWM starts to make back up but on the end it said can´t mount it... if i check my SD card there is back up folder and i think that there is also back up file (size1,95G).
I tried to restore but CWM saids something MD5 file failed...
So i´m rooted but i can´t flash new rom...
Try to reflash via Odin, and then do according to instruction.

Ok i will try that..
Can it be wrong rom what i have tried to flash... supersu flashing was ok, but when i try to flash samsung stock 4.2.2 rom , it does not work...
Do they have different bootloader.
My phone is also encrypted... does it matter?

It does not work... if i flash new rom (4.2,2 stock) using odin , flashing procedure stops and fails.. phone gets stucked and only way to get phone working is to flash KK stock firmware back...
So maybe i'm having some issue with the rom... i can' t find any another working. rom.... so i' m dead end.....

Hi the problem is that your bootloader is locked and it wont let you go back to 4.2.2 because of that... I read on the forum safetrap take a look on it. This may help you

I recommend everyone put the Flashfire AP zip and Rom Zip on your internal storage as the AP file is so large that it may not be read properly do too limitations of some SD Cards. When you select AP file in Firmware there should be 4 partitions that are selected. If not then you have a bad download or need to have AP file on internal storage
You are a big @jrkruse and I love what you build I will install it in a couple of hours I will return thanks

I've tried to install twice so far. Both times I make it as far as Aroma installer getting to "Wiping Data" then phone reboots to Splash screen and just sits. Doesn't make it to boot animation. Tried rebooting, then booting to recovery and wiping cache, then tried factory reset, but nothing helped.
Are there any things I should avoid in Aroma options?

Did you flash the Verizon Odin files first. Then root. The flashfire AP and Rom zip

Yup, I did everything exactly as listed. Since there was no directions for Aroma, I was wondering if I was picking a wrong option there. I choose full wipe, TMo stock kernel, modded ui, but it always fails at Wipe when it starts to install.

I picked full wipe, TMo stock kernel, modded ui, NoName boot animation. Most of the S8 apps and custom debloat. I tried the dual speaker mod the first 2 times but not the 3rd.
Both files are on my sdcard.

Do you remember what you chose in custom debloat. I just want to run your same config and try. I would check that md5 use and md5 checker program then check it against Android file host generated md5 for file. If its bad there is no need in doing all this

I don't remember exactly. One of the times I just chose the minimal debloat option (70 apps, I think)
Anyway, I'll have to try again tomorrow after work.
