Hi Guys!
Since the jflte family of devices is almost exactly the same I thought I would post my I9505 (jflte) Rom here for you as well!
It has been tested by jfltetmo and jfltecan users and is confirmed working!
To install it, just download the I9505 rom and then flash the appropriate device specific package I created.
Download the rom from this thread
Download the appropriate device specific package
Install CWM or TWRP recovery.
Boot into recovery, install ROM, then install the device specific package then install gapps.
Wipe Data/Factory Reset if coming from another Rom.
Reboot and enjoy!
Your device name might show up as I9505. If you are bothered by it you can edit the file /system/build.prop in the rom .zip package before you flash it.
This does not affect the way the rom functions in any way.
Please let me know if you have successfully installed and running this rom on any of the US variants of the S4. I don't own the device!
Donate to Bajee, the creator of this rom
Donate to CyanogenMod

If you have TWRP or one of the other recoveries installed you can flash it in the recovery.

Yes that usually pops on a loki issue if im not mistaken. So your steps would be to flash the rom, flash your preferred kernel(i personally like the chronic kernel) then flash your gapps package.

Is this thread still alive or what. I grabbed the rootbox stable and nightly version from goo. And I got to say is pretty solid feeling. I can't find a support thread for these releases unfortunately data doesn't work on either build. All the other junk ass aosp builds have data. I would like to achive data or at least find a support thread.
Any ideas suggestions or input is appreciated Thanks

hi guys,
so rooted my Galaxy S4, with Verizon, so thrilled about that, however was going so fast that I deleted the calendar that comes with the phone.
I love that calendar and want it back, donnt like google calendar, so not an option, just want that calendar back, I have tried everything even factory reset, but calendar does not come back.
I need to know how to re downloaded or get it back
please help me : -(
Factory reset should have brought it back - try to just load a stock image from the original Rooting thread - have you tried that?
You referring to the Samsung Stock Calendar?

Root your device again > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2290798
And I think this is the default calendar. You can try to install it but don't know if it will work. You may have to root and place it in the /system/app/ directory.

Titanium Backup allows you to freeze the bload so you can enable it later for upgrades. Might look into it.

you could try to flash the stock galaxy s4 firmware and then root it afterwards. no need for data wipe but a dalvik cache and cache wipe is recommended. use odin and flash the firmware. then root afterwards. you should now have the calendar app back.

You're able to download the firmware from the samsung site http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Or you could have made a backup of the rom before root

Instructions for backing up stock ROM before root
I too would greatly appreciate a PM regarding doing a full backup of my stock Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 rom before I root it.
I plan on rooting the phone and installing a couple new roms to try them out and would really appreciate some direction!
I also am interesting in how to unroot the stock rom if I was to root it and decide to go back for any reason.
Thanks for your time and all your help! You guys all rock! :highfive:
EDIT: - I've seen this site around here - 247xtreme. com/S4/ - is this valid and has anyone else tried it out?

I just got my new Galaxy S4, and I'm using Titanium Backup to try and restore my text messages from my old phone. In a totally boneheaded move, I accidentally restored the app from my old Motorola phone and not the data! :crying: Can someone PLEASE upload the "Dialer Storage" APK as soon as humanly possible so that I don't have to do a full factory reset?
Thank you!!!
I found a zip of stock APK's (Here). I assumed that Dialer Storage is SecTelephonyProvider.apk based on Google searches, so I copied and replaced both SecTelephonyProvider.apk and SecTelephonyProvider.odex. The issue still persists, and now I'm getting constant "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped"!
I have booted into recovery and done a complete factory data reset, but it didn't fix the issue - I'm getting constant "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped" and "Unfortunately, Messaging has stopped" errors. What the heck have I done and how can I fix this? ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!!! Thank you so much!

I take it your in MDK? You could always odin back to stock or flash a new rom and see if that fixes the problem. Sounds like you corrupted the build you are on. TBU can destroy systems if not used properly.

You might have more luck with more information on how you got to this point. For instance, did you root your phone and remove the apps? Also where did you download the apps from? If they are APKs you can install them from a file browser. If they are ZIP files you probably need to flash them from your custom recovery. Most downloads include specific instructions on how to install, so I would check there first. If there are no instructions, then I suggest you ask for help in that thread, that is unless someone else hasn't already.
I was rooted but still pretty much stock. I flash back to stock using odin so I could use the isis wallet. Then I upgraded to 4.2.2 and noticed that I no longer had samsung apps. So today I went to Samsung's website and downloaded it. Clicked to install and it trys to install then says application not installed?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda premium
Same issue here, bone stock VZW GS4 recently update to 4.3 and factory reset. I downloaded the APK directly from the Samsung Apps site and it shows the same error. I don't really need it for anything but it would still be nice to get it fixed.
