[Q] Question about my MK2 and AOSP Google Edition - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Hello, Androiders! I've been trying to get AOSP Google Edition by Danvdh as described in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2643031 installed on my Verizon Galaxy S4.
My phone specs are as follows:
Model Number: SCH-I545
Android Version: 4.3
Baseband Version: I545VRUEMK2
(please let me know if more info necessary!)
So far I have successfully rooted my phone using the saferoot method here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2565758
Next I tried running loki_flash and recovery.lok via the Terminal Emulator on my phone, but it returned a wrong version error. Further reading suggests that loki does not work with my phone, with safestrap being the alternative. Danvdh notes that safestrap will not work with his ROM.
Does that mean that I am out of luck?

You can't run that ROM. Your only recovery option Is SafeStrap and that only allows for Touchwiz based roms.

Anybody know what to do to fix this?
I installed a clockworkmod recovery using odin3 as well as installing superuser.zip in recovery mode. I tried flashing 3 different roms in recovery, all from cyanogen mod.com under the samsung fascinate device section but they gave me the status 7 error. Not sure if that qualifies as rooted but im new to this and any help would be appreciated

Have you tried installing any ICS Roms? I am having the same error but it only happens when trying to install a JB rom. I can install custom roms up to ICS 4.0.4 but can't get to jelly bean.

[Baseband modem] NA4 Odin flashable

Tested this out on my Note 3 after going back to 4.3 (MJ4) and it worked.
Enjoy!
NA4 Odin flashable baseband
EDIT: These flash BEST when on "official" software, meaning your Odin status should report official for both binary and system. I've found that this combination will allow basebands to flash.
Nice...

So, any advantage to rolling back if on NA4, or stay as-is?
I'm dead serious.

So I'm on toxic swamp 1.0.2 MJ4. Ok to flash this modem via mobile Odin pro?

You can try Mobile Odin. But in my past experience, it will flash just about anything but a modem

Some will say the greatest advantage to rolling back is being able to Odin back to NA4 again. My thought on that is, they are absolutely correct.

Ok to try, perhaps, as the wise blackcanopy indicated, not necessarily will succeed.

I wholeheartedly agree. I just did it in my sleep, and found that rolling back to MJ4 with this modem versus keeping this modem and the rest of the OS, the latter is a way better user experience.

Not Sticking
I tried flashing with Odin 3.09, 3.07 as well as Mobile Odin Pro. When I check in settings it still says my baseband is MJ4. Odin passes successfully on every attempt but it doesnt seem to stick.
Can we use mobile odin

It was suggested not to a few posts back but I tried it anyway. It didnt hurt any. After rebooting i checked and it still was on MJ4. So I dont think anything happened.
This is great! Was wondering if this would ever be yanked and able to flash...low and behold. Anyone notice a difference in connectivity compared to MJ4 baseband?

If the OP can grab the tar, perhaps, though I haven't seen it.

Rolling Back the Baseband to MJ4
Okay...
Here's how you roll back to MJ4 modem...
1. Do a backup, boot, system and data
2. Reflash stock MJ4
3. Reroot
4. Reflash TWRP 2.6.3.7
5. Restore boot, system, and data
The reason that there is likely no rollback option is because it's not sticking, as was rightly noted in the previous post by the gentleman whom, based on his pseudonym, appears to have a serious disdain for iPhones.
I hope this helps.

If you don't flash TWRP.
Or, if you do flash TWRP, some of the roms on the dev forum have system status indicating official...

Gotcha Thanks
So flashing this modem is or isn't showing a performance improvement on a stock mj4 ROM? The only way to go back to mj4 modem is to flash the whole mj4 ROM in Odin?

Well I personally don't usually run TW but I think quite a few people have liked this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2721118
Also you could grab the International TW patch and then grab pretty much any international TW ROM from the i9505 forum. There's a ton of those.

It works I've been using it for a few days now but I can't get my head around all them settings. It also Clash's with my closed framework so I'm lookin for something less complex
A little OT but since we're here, is installing CM 13 just a matter of downloading the software and flashing with Odin? I'm rooted on MM. Does my operating system change?
