That's kernel panic guy. He's annoying.
Power off phone, let it cool down, then power on into whatever mode ya want. Should work fine.
If not, reflash current recovery (make sure you're flashing the proper version of either TWRP or Philz CWM, made for KitKat).

If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great. I've been trying to get a custom recovery on my friend's and my own Verizon S4's for a while now. We're both rooted, but on the ME7 update. Not sure what I gotta do for our phones to finally get a custom recovery so we can use custom ROMs. I've tried using the Goo app, and Rom Manager app, but when booting into recovery, it says "Downloading...Do not turn off target!!" and it gets stuck there. Nothing happens ten minutes later.
Not gonna happen....right now, anyway. Only works with MDK.

Pimp my rom has the option to enter hidden menu that works with 4.3. For any noobs that are confused by the directions.

Hey all,
I'm hoping someone can post the stock Sprint dialer stuff. I'm on the Sprint G2 using a G3 rom and there are issues with the dialer app crashes when the device is set as Sprint. I'm thinking that Sprint may have a carrier specific dialer app that isn't present in this rom and that's why it crashes. If anyone can post these files it wold be much appreciated.

No, no side loading or anything that writes to system until we get root.

I'm new to TWRP. I've always used CWM in the past. With CWM when you do a backup you just click back up and everything s backed up for you. I've noticed on TWRP when you select backup your given a lot of options to pick from when doing a backup. I'm not sure exactly what I need to select in order to have everything back to exactly the way it was before I flash another Rom. DO I select everything or is that unnecessary. Please help
I always do boot, data, and system and has never failed me if I ever needed to use it.
