You can't always depends on the baseband to match up with your bootloader.
To be sure of which one you have get the app phone info and scroll down a little it will tell you exactly which bootloader you have

I really can't believe this only has three replies since original post.... I hope we get a port soon maybe if time prevails I'll take a look...

I dont know if you guys know this or not, but porting rom isnt easy let alone stock firmware. You realize that not only do you have to figure out what kernel modules are needed, you also have to figure out how to make the rom compatible on a device with slightly different hardware.

So you were able to modify the linked ROM to work on your VZW S4?
Are you running, the MDK firmware still?
Want to share how you were able to get it ported?

So if this is a official Samsung build for at&t will it support the s-Window?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
Multi-window yes
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
No the s cover with the Window in it so you can view the time and check for notifications. That's why I don't use aosp cause I like that feature.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
Oh lol my bad lol yes s-view window will work. I have one

So, are you building it in a way that does not require changing from the MDK base?

Sorry for the re-post, but I wanted to supply a bit of fodder for the thread... I am no DEV, but by chance I was able to get this working, ... everything except SMS/MMS ...
I have not yet tested bt, but I have data working and WiFi.

To be helpful the answer is NO. But a quick search would have gotten you that answer

It would be nice if someone could figure out how to do this though. Is it possible. My phone shipped with me7 so I had no hope to begin with. Of course I didn't read up enough before I updated so I'm double screwed and on mj7 now.

Anyone who still has mdk has it because they want it and have already rooted and froze or deleted sdm or have a ROM without it. You won't find anyone with mdk who will trade you.
Your best bet for an MDK device is most likely eBay, Craigslist, Swappa, etc.

It's not truly unlocked either. Just has an exploit to bypass it so to speak.
If you have anything post mdk you are truly locked up and SafeStrap is your only option.
