that depends, but I can tell you that it's 100% safe to use the search function before you post.

I did a base of omega 11 said no sim installed. Tried insatlling scotts patch and the modem. But no success. Will try other things later. But I am running jedi from tmobile. 2 days so far no bugs that I can see

Sorry for not using search, that was just plain stupid of me lol.
Bern, so you just flashed Jedi?

I am running an ATT ROM, Novella Beta from Alliance ROM. I have had no issues with it whatsoever. It is a an awesome ROM. I was running Jelly Thunder Blackout before that. Both of these work with Scott's patch. I tried Jelly Bomb for Sprint. I got it to boot just couldnt get to in encrypt. Best advice if you are going to flash anything is to make sure you always do a Nandroid back up.

Didn't do novella since Dope tried that one. Now running T mobile. Myrom- revolution. So far everything working. The cool thing about it is it comes as two rom downloads. One the rom and one for amorastyle add on. Tried the add on, on jedi and they worked on that one. Just make sure you Don't install modem

[Question] Rooting

Just wondering if the Thunderbolt had to be activated before rooting or not.
Anyone know?
I plan on rooting one for my mother in law but she hasn't activated it yet for service.
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda premium
Mine was rooted when I activated it. I ended up unrooting because there were problems with my activation unrelated to being rooted. Just makes sure you're on the latest firmware first.

No problem. The reason you should stick with the stock ruu is because if they need software info it will match. I doubt they will hut you never know.

I probably will just root it anyways. If something weird happens, I'll just unroot it and start over.

Yeah, just until it gets activated, then I can change over to a different ROM.

Yea. I remember on the Eris it wasn't possible to activate on anything but a stock rom. On this I'm not to sure so I would go with a sense 2.1 for sure.

I can say if you have verizon you might wanna wait on rooting even if you root but have a stock rom because i sat in their store over an hour and a half one day setting up a new sim card with a samsung stratosphere i rooted and it had the tweaked rom and stock rom and had to unroot cuz their computer couldnt connect to device right and finally after 8 new simcards i just unrooted used my backup of original factory firmware i took before flashing customized stock rom.... I know im a lil late on this but my advice is root it after its been activated...save yourself hassle and embarrassment knowing they are not supposed to help you when your device is rooted...

This is the reason I never go in the store. I've never had a problem activating a rooted phone. That is why I always suggest going back to a stock firmware though because cm roms and other aosp roms have trouble activating most of the time.

Jedi rom on Verizon?

Yeah I have been reading all the post about that and it seems hit or miss with different roms. I was just curious if anyone has done it already and how it worked for them.

Once again I read it and watched the video but a few minutes on video hardly tells me it works fine. I have a friend who used that method to install a tmobile rom and it works okay but has a lot of fc. Just wanted to hear from few people who have tried it and there results not just one person.

I find that to be highly unlikely. There is going to be a ****load of optimization that will go into updating everything to 4.3 for our phones, while I know the AOSP Devs are fast as hell I don't think even they are that fast.
If you mean stock 4.3...... Well it could be a year before we see anything.

While it's not released yet, and it AOSP, it does seem like it will be released VERY soon.

S4 slow?

I suggest flashing Hyperdrive ROM and following steps accordingly. This has been my savior everytime I try a new ROM. The developer is amazing. Check it out

All the roms are fast. Everyone should just try each one out and decide which they like the most.

Even stock is fast. I always turn off animations under dev options to give it more "snap". Stock or custom rom.

I'm on stock ME7 with force gpu rendering enabled and this is easily the fastest stock experience I've ever had. Only thing that's been faster was AOSP on my GS3/N2. I definitely can't complain.

Rocking Hyperdrive myself, Touch Wiz is the smoothest I have experienced.
I'm on bone stock me7 nothing changed. Faster then custom mdk ROMs I ran. I gave up. Updated to me7. IDC I have a nexus 7 for my crack flash toy. This is just my phone.

Most of the TW ROMs run pretty well, including stock. However, they all run like junk compared to aosp.

Run Dubbsys Google edition rom stock.
It has Google wallet, ir blaster works. Just a smooth Google experience we all wanted.
It also has the tw camera working, but still not fully operational, which is fine.

I look forward to custom ROM's once we get an unlocked Bootloader again :crying:
This phone is just plain fast. Unless you messed something up during a flash or installed an app thats causing a problem than I don't see a reason why it would be slow at all.

I'm running hyperdrive release 7. 8 is out now but haven't bothered to flash it yet. Really liking 7. I normally don't flash ever release. I skip a few here and there. I wait for a bunch of changes to be made before updating.

Agreed. AOSP is a thing of the past. Time to grow and let go. TW is an amazing thing and I would really like more development from it. Hyperdrive is one of the best TW roms you can get for your S4 right now in my honest opinion. It is very solid and SBreen94 is an amazing developer. Always there for us fellow flashers.

Except when it comes to getting a fully functional camera experience
Well once carriers stop rom updates and tw development slows down, all that comes into effect is aosp since it's constantly being updated; that's in another year from now though.

I have a really hard time staying on an AOSP ROM at the moment...they all seem to have bugs and force closes...cm 10.2 is working pretty well for me right now and the new focus camera is pretty good...also Bluetooth problems as well...still a great rom though...TW is hard to beat though with everything functioning and working perfectly

[Q] What Roms can we flash after upgrading to NC5 Rooted?!

So i followed Surges method, which worked perfectly btw, but i cannot stand stock samsung. Are there any roms that people are flashing after doing this upgrade that work well with SS? i have read through a lot of the Echoe thread hoping that one would work, but there seems to be a ton of confusion as to whether it works and how to get it to work... Can someone shed some light on the situation?
Gonna take some time for safestrap compatible 4.4 ROMs to become available. One reason why im not rushing to nc5

With out MDK boot loader, you won't see AOSP, or a true AOSP ROM running on your phone until kecex has been achieved. Enjoy limited TW
