CM10 on Rogers i747M?

Hello,
I know a CM10 beta was released for the AT&T GS III but I have a Rogers GS III which is a i747M just like the AT&T one. Is it possible to install the CM10 beta on my phone? If so, will I need to install a different version of CWM on my phone?
I used this guide to root my phone and put CWM on it: http://galaxys3root.com/galaxy-s3-root/how-to-root-att-galaxy-s3-sgh-i747/

Yes it will work fine on your Rogers phone. Rogers and at&t are the same phone.

I installed CM9 on my Rogers S3 yesterday, so I doubt CM10 won't work.
Apparently there's no LTE for Rogers on CM10 yet (I couldn't get it to work on CM9 either) and the WiFi issue is unresolvable yet because you can't access the service mode menu so I switched back, sadly.

I'm on Rogers too, but I've been a little hesitant to flash to CM10 just yet. It appears there's a problem with LTE functionality -- no way to enable/force it on, currently.

So do I have to flash a special version of clockwork recovery? If so, which?

CWM 5.8.4.7 worked for me. I found that CM10 really drained the battery quickly plus no LTE support as mentioned so I switched back.

Status 7
I'm using a Rogers S3 I747M and I keep getting Status 7 messages with CM10, MIUI etc
I'm able to flash most of the other ROMs without any problems...(as long as they specify I747M , Rogers , Bell etc )
I'm currently running the JellyBean milestone 3 leak (and LTE works fine). The only problem I have is with the T-Mobile hotspot app (it won't allow me to enable HotSpot for some reason...)

Which recovery are you using? I found that I tried using 5.x.x.x CWM (sorry i cant remember) and it gave me that error, so i used another 5.x.x.x a newer later # and that flashed it...but gave me a boot loop!! fed up, i then used restored and flashed TWRP recovery, that worked like a charm!

The latest builds of CM10 won't flash properly with CWM 5; you need CWM 6 for that.

Speak for yourself. All builds of CM10 and AOKP flash perfectly fine with 5.8.4.7 CWM here.

yes, the AT&T CM10 nightly builds should be compatible with all i747, it works with my telus one.
And as for which CWM, just instsall the most updated one, 6.0.1.2, as some of the older versions of CWM wont work properly with newer ROMS such as CM10

So with the recent "stable" release. Us Rogers users should be able flash and go no other problems? excuse my ignorance i'm a bit new at this...

Hey I'm the OP and I can clarify the developments since I made this thread.
What you need to know:
1) The Rogers Galaxy SIII model number is "SAMSUNG-SGS-I747". You can check this by going on your phone to Settings -> About Phone -> Model number. Commonly, it is just called the I747 variant.
In the US, the version for the AT&T carrier is also the exact same phone (same hardware), ie it is also the i747.
Because the US phone market is more popular (I guess) our device (the i747) is usually referred to as the "AT&T variant".
2) This mean that any ROM developments/tutorials/guides that work for the AT&T phone will work for your phone. Actually, the i747 variant of the Galaxy SIII is also used for Bell and Telus (as listed in the name of this subforum).
Another thing is that manufacturers give different hardware revisions different names to be used internally (I believe). The i747 name is "d2att" so this is just another synonym for your phone.
3) Knowing all this, you just need to find a ROM built for your device (d2att). There are plenty in the "Original Android Development" section of this subforum.
I would recommend trying Cyanogenmod Nightly until you become accustomed to flashing, ROMs, etc.
If you were to go on cyanogenmod's download site (http://get.cm/) on the left you will see a list of all supported devices. If you hover over "d2att" you'll see it reveals it's common name, the AT&T GS III. There you can download nightlies, which means that every day a new version with new changes to this ROM have been made available for download.
4) To actually install a rom, I would reccomend looking for a quick intro guide to flashing. First thing you'll have to do though is flash custom recovery on your phone. Basically, you want to put Clockwork Recovery Mod on your phone so you can easily install ROMs on your phone.
If you haven't already, you'll have to root and install clockwork. Find a guide to do it (if you have trouble let me know or start a thread).
If you have any other questions just PM me and I can help you since I have the same phone as you.

error when flashing ROM downloaded from ROM Manager
Just a heads up, as this may affect other Rogers users.
After downloading any cyanogenmod 10 nightly using ROM Manager Premium, I was getting an error when attempting to flash the ROM.
For some as of yet unknown reason, even though the recovery was configured for the d2att model, it was downloading the ROM for the d2mtr model. I have brought this to the attention of @Clockworkmod on Twitter, and provided logs and build.prop, but the underlying cause is still unknown.
The device was correctly identified as a "d2att" within the build.prop, and the correct recovery was selected and applied from within ROM Manger. I also attempted manually flashing both the standard and touch recoveries, with no difference in behaviour. Same after a full wipe of ROM Manager data & a re-installation.
The solution was to manually flash the d2att CloclworkMod recovery from the ROM Manger site, and then manually specifying the recovery as follows:
Menu --> Manual Flash Override --> ClockworkMod 5.X.X.X+
Reboot and ROMs now download as required.

[Jailbreak]Take Note Verizon - Root/Jailbreak/Recovery

Update: this will not work on the recent firmware updates.
Hey, you can't jailbreak an Android.. yeah, i know, but "Jailbreak" is a protected act under the USA DMCA Exemption of 2012 and "Unlocking" is illegal without carrier permission. There will be no misunderstandings here.
WARNING:
This is not a normal bootloader unlock. This is even higher. It's an IROM unlock. This device went from the most secure Galaxy Note 10.1 to the least secure. After performing the technique in this thread your device will allow you to flash a Justin Beiber MP3 over your bootloaders (that means a hard brick). BE VERY CAREFUL and never flash with Odin or Heimdall unless you're absolutely sure it is intended for a SCH-I925. Odin or Heimdall can easily brick your device.
Introduction
CASUAL will guide you through the process of unlocking your bootloader using exploits developed by Lee Harrison. It works on Windows, Linux, and Mac. Put your device into “Developer Mode>USB Debugging”. Click the do it button. Any problems will be addressed with updates. See the About CASUAL section below.
Overview
You are expected to be STOCK.... Stock anything, but stock. This will install a stock kernel and that may affect non-stock roms. You will need to download and execute the CASUAL application below. Make sure you're connected to the internet. Then click the Do It! button. You need Java. Do you have Java?.
Windows 32/64 Users: CASUAL will put your device into Download Mode. It will automatically flash everything. If drivers are required, jrloper's CADI (CASUAL Automated Driver installer) will handle it. Make sure you're connected to the internet.
Linux 32/64/raspberry pi Users There may be a permission escalation in order to install heimdall, either way sit back and relax. CASUAL automates the entire process.
Please run the following in a terminal first:
Mac Users: Mac works easierr than any other system at the time of this release on 32bit systems. Please report problems.
Download
Take Note Verizon CASUAL(R478b) CASUAL is used to automate the process. The exploit was developed by Elite Recognized Developer Ralekdev and packaged by AdamOutler. To run CASUAL you need Java. Do you have Java?
Note: Please don't mirror this file. Link to this thread for download. d-h.st is a fast server. If I find people mirroring old versions of CASUAL, i will throw the killswitch and their browser will bring them back here to download the new one so they end up downloading it twice, otherwise I have to support multiple versions.
Videos
Demonstration on Linux. It is roughlty the same on Windows and Mac, but if anyone wants to make a video I will put it here.
About CASUAL
CASUAL stands for Cross-platform ADB Scripting, Univeral Android Loader. CASUAL jar files are a wrapper for the CASUAL scripting language. CASUAL allows rapid and accurate deployment of hacks and exploits. CASUAL is an Open Format, meaning, you can find out as much as you need to about how it works because they're easily taken apart and modified with WinZip. CASUAL is also secure. At any time, if a serious problem is detected with any script, the kill-switch will be flipped and you will be brought to a support page (most likely here) so you can download the latest version. Otherwise for minor corrections, new CASUAL scripts can be deployed remotely.
Here's a picture of CASUAL and a Verizon GNote10.1 running Team Win Recovery

This unlock was basically identical to the second Galaxy Note 2 unlock except I had to add a few more tweaks because we're shoving a modified N8010 bootloader onto the i925.

great work guys as usual! you guys never cease to amaze me

Does this install the same TWRP version as Dees-Troy is working on in this forum? Just curious because that one is pretty rough with touch issues and it would be great to have a more functional one. I have the 8013...

I have the U.S. Cellular i925u. Is there anyway to get this to work. I'm not interested in keeping the 4g capability. I'm ok with using WiFi only. I tried using the Casual install but it failed.

CASUAL will let you root, but it won't install files that will damage your device. Even if it would, it's a bad idea. This is an IROM unlock, intended for Verizon devices only. IROM unlock means you can flash anything you want including files that destory your device.
You don't need this if you can flash custom kernels and ROMs. We have taken down all defenses here. If the U.S. Cellular version is locked down and you cant flash kernels/ROMs without it, I can release a new, updated version.

Thanks Sir. The U.S. Cellular version is locked down like the Verizon version as far as I can tell. Since the US Carriers decided to do the same crap with the bootloaders. I have root using framaroot but I'm unable to install a recovery or flash a kernel.

Update: rebooted windows 8 and the install went through fine.

Adam,
So here is what I am seeing, see the pictures attached

Alright guys. I'm uploading two new packages....
The first one is the latest copy of the Take Note Verizon jailbreak. It includes a modified Recovery by Dees_Troy. Our Note 10.1's are different than the other ones.
Differences: The partition structure is totally different. The kernels are totally different. This means you will soft-brick your device by flashing anything in these forums involving a recovery or a kernel other than this one. That being said..... It may be a good idea to get a separate forum. If you are interested, please start a *NEW THREAD* in General forums listing all the i925 specific threads which could be moved.
Alright. For the second part, I'm uploading a Rooted back-to-stock which I packaged from my own device before unlocking it and flashing stuff. Here's the technique used. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2082951 . This file is large so it will be a while before it's uploaded. The files included are basically everything needed to safely get back from a custom ROM and be rooted stock again.
Files included: boot.img, hidden.img, modem.bin, param.bin, recovery.img, system.img
We don't have a way to remove the modified system status currently. There is no completely back to stock.

no. The hardware is different. The bootloaders are similar. You need a different kernel
As a note: Never flash an N8010 bootloader. this is a SPECIAL bootloader based on the N8010 bootloader. Just pretend it has nothing to do with N8010. For all practical purposes, this is an I925 bootloader we crafted out of an N8010 because we didn't have a i925 to work with.

Ok thanks, mostly just curious as i own the N8013 but considered the verizon version or selling and getting the unlocked international.

Thanks a ton Adam! Worked perfectly.
So if I have this correctly, we will be running stock until we get a dev to start working on our variant? I would assume that the other roms wouldn't install correctly with the partitions being different correct?

Frequently Asked Questions (F.A.Q.)

I've made this thread to help people who have some problem and make new threads instead of searching the common questions. In my next post I will start posting the FAQ's and since it's not possible for me to be online 24/7 so it may take sometime but i will keep updating it. And if anyone have some doubts feel free to ask. BTW Ifeel free to PM me if you have some ideas or nice questions to improve this thread

Q1: I get bootloop after installing a custom rom. What is the problem?
A: Have you done everything correctly?
-Firstly post your problem in the ROM thread as the devs there may help you better.
-Check your mobile compatibility with the ROM
-Check if you have installed the correct kernel for your ROM.
-Check whether you have done the correct wipes as mentioned in the ROM thread.
-Some ROMs require formatting system. So if it is mentioned in main ROM thread then you must do it.
-Some releases may require stock rom first before flashing the custom rom. So flash the stock rom and then the custom rom over it.
If nothing works just download the stock ROM for your mobile and flash it using flashtool. This may solve your problem.
Q2: Can you suggest me the best ROM or kernel or something like that for my smartphone cause i'm really lazy to do a bit of searching...?
A: First go here and beware before asking these type of questions again otherwise you will end up with a bunch of people like me mocking you and nothing else.
Q3: I have rooted my phone successfully, now how can I install CWM (ClockWorkMod) Recovery?
A: If you have locked bootloader you can simply install CWM using an app called x-parts from Google Play and install recovery from it. And if your bootloader is unlocked you can simply flash a custom kernel with CWM or some other recovery present in it.
Q4: I have a problem with this ROM and what should I....
A: It's a ROM specific question, better post it in the ROM thread. They will help you better.
Q5: My phone can't boot in fastboot mode. Please help me!
A: Firstly check that fastboot is enabled on your mobile and the correct procedure to go to fastboot mode is by holding back button and connecting to computer via USB.
Q6: WIFI is not working. What should I do?
A: See if it is listed as a bug in the specific ROM thread. If not try custom kernels and if you can get correct WIFI modules flash them. If you're lucky WIFI will work.
Q7: How do I install custom rom/kernel on my mobile?
A: Mihahn has worked really hard on making his guide not because he wants some people asking again and again the same questions instead of using a bit of the "SEARCH" feature.
Q8: What is the safest way to root my phone or unlock its bootloader?
A: There no such thing as safest way. If you do everything correctly you will be successful in rooting you phone and unlocking the bootloader and also [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568792"]Follow this [/URL].
Q9: How to activate MSC(mass storage mode) on CM10?
A: Though this question is of a particular rom but still I've listed it here since many people asked this question. Just go here, thanks the person and perform the steps correctly.
Q10: I did an OTA(Over the Air) update after unlocking bootloader. Now my phone is dead, what should I do?
A: Just go to this thread, thanks the person. Refer to section 6 and download the unbricking package from no.16 of XX.Downloads section, perform the correct steps and most probably your phone will be back to life!
Q11: How do I unlock my bootloader if it says Bootloader Unlock Allowed:No?
A: No one has actually got a 100% working solution since it is because of your simlock, thus you may have to pay for it. You can try WotanServer or Omnius and if you're lucky it will be unlocked and fastboot might be enabled.
Q12: How do I OC(OverClock) or UC(UnderClock) my phone?
A: If your kernel supports the function and if your ROM has inbuilt option for the fuction then you can do it directly from ROM or else you can buy/download apps like SetCPU for your phone and can use it easily to OC, UC or change governer of your CPU. *Playing with your CPU is at your own risk and if you go anywhere wrong your phone might not be able to recover(permanent brick). So if you are a newbie(noob) just stay away from these things*
Q13: How much OverClocking is advised for my phone?
A: Though there are some kernels which provide Over Clocking from 1.6-2 GHz(GigaHertz), but still you should not overclock above 1.2-1.4 GHz for daily use or else your CPU might burn, turning your phone into permanent brick. *I personally do not advise overclocking at all so do everything at your own risk.
Q14: How do I partition my sd-card?
A: Follow this very nice guide given by sayhellotwoheaven. Don't forget to THANK him.
Q15: How does Thanks Meter affect my profile?
A: Thanks Meter actually is not useful in becoming Recognized Contributor/Themer/Developer. It is actually the appreciation you get on you works. Thanks Meter has been made so that members of XDA stop posting just THANKS on threads and thread could be clean and helpful.
Q16: How to be a Recognized Contributor/Themer/Developer?
A: Recognized Contributor is a role intended for members who produce some of the best original and helpful guides for users, as well as helping other users who have problems, in a friendly manner. Recognized Contributors will get a custom user title and the faster ad-free XDA template, as well as access to developer tools currently being created. Any Senior Moderator on XDA can add Recognized Contributors, should you feel deserving of this title.
Recognized Themers are those users who work (often tirelessly) on designing new theme graphics and user interface overhauls for ROMs. Users who aspire to be Recognized Themers should be creating original graphics work for their themes being released, demonstrate a commitment to crediting other users’ work when applicable, and seek the relevant permission in advance from the original creator. Recognized Themers will receive a custom user title and the faster ad-free XDA template, as well as access to developer tools currently being created. Any Senior Moderator on XDA can add Recognized Themers, should you feel deserving of this title.
Recognized Developer, as the name suggest are those who develop really good ROMs, kernels, etc. Anyone who is skillful and publishes his own creation other that just copying and pasting can be termed as recognized developer.

A: Simply download a very nice app know as Pimp My Rom from Google Play and install it and you can get many tweaks and options in that. It also has an option to download BE and x-loud for your ROM if it's compatible.
Q21: Does ChainFire support my phone?
A: The simple answer is download and use it. But if you are on ICS/JB I would recommend you not to use it as it may most probably result in bootloop. ChainFire is compatible only upto GB.
Q22: Why does my phone say Bootloader Unlock Allowed: No?
A: It's most probably a simlock. The mobile you bought has a simlock of the particular company whose SIM is being used. Normally the companies used to provide the unlocking code after sometime but now I think it won't be provided from now since simlock unlocking has become illegal. But you can break your simlock through WotanServer, Omnius or some local shops.
Q23: Can you tell me how does thanks meter increases with regard to number of thanks?
A:No. of Thanks and meter:​​
0-25

Q24: What are BB Codes and what BB Codes can I use in my thread?
A: Mainly every kind of text formatting that we do in XDA thread is governed by BB codes. Here is the list of all the BB Codes we can use in XDA and explanation of each code.
Q25: Is there anyway to mount my sd-card using CWM recovery?
A: Yes! Many versions of CWM support mounting sd-card through it. For that go to Mounts and Storage->Mount sd-card and you're done! But remember if you press back button then your sd-card will unmount instantly.

if u guys have Q/A let me know here ill add in the list

CM11 - KitKat
Hi!
I'm currently using the latest nightly version from CM10 on my Xperia Arc, and I was thinking about trying this new build of CM 11.
Can I install it using the CM updater? If not, every time I install a new update I'll lose all the data from my device?
Thanks.

Bluetooth connectivity and xperia home problem
Hello
I'm currently using arc s and have recently installed z1 honami custom rom
Whenever I reboot my mobile first thing that flashes on the screen after the entire reboot is unfortunately,Xperia home has stopped
and a new thing that I noticed is when i turn the bluetooth on it gets paired with the device but when they try to send a file to my phone it says connection failed
I have tried with other devices to checkout if it's my problem or the other device's!!
The same thing happens even with all other devices.
I've tried all the possible ways but can't find a solution
Bluetooth worked fine with other custom rom such as ultimate hd 5.0
Please tell a solution
Thanx in advance

its always better to start fresh if you move from one version to another, other wise some leftover data might conflict with the new version and you'll get lag and other issues with your device. but if they mention in their forum that you can just flash the new Cm11 on cm10 then it should not be a problem but i will got for the first one.

i had the same problem but my mobile was charging fine,
find any way to charge your battery, insert in another arc or some thing,
computer does not recognize it what did you do before that with your mobile ? ( Ex installed a new rom or something ) you messed up big time
if you do get to charge your mobile you can use another computer to flash official firmware again thats what i did used my another laptop and it worked over there for some reason.
Or
you can place an rom on your sd card and flash it via cwm but in any case you need that battery charge first.

I have a question, I have installed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2545354 and can i flash back official firmware (tft file) ?

Making sure I'm doing this right
Hi all,
I just want to make sure I'm doing this right. I'm relatively new to rooting. Updating the firmware / radio is something I've never done before, so I'm just going to guess at the information I need to provide. Sorry if I leave anything out.
I have an m7vzw running SlimKat version 8.0. It's android 4.4.4 and the baseband version is 1.12.41.1112_2. My phone is S-OFF and I have TWRP installed. Can I just keep SlimKat installed, download the latest firmware / radio.zip in the second post, and follow the fastboot instructions there to update? Or do I need to revert to stock, then update, then return to custom?
Thanks so much for your help.

Yes, it has been discussed in that thread. When you flash firmware only, you do not need to change roms. I would personally do a "fastboot erase cache" command before rebooting into system after firmware flash

We will have to wait for HTC to release the next version of sense.

I am having issues flashing the firmware. I flash the firmware as directed in the thread and flash 5.28.605.2 through Fastboot. Fastboot appears to work as the bar fills up to the last 1/10th of the progress bar. After that the instruction is to use Fastboot reboot bootloader From there I reboot the phone.
When I reboot back into the Bone Stock ROM after flashing the firmware it looks like the firmware remains as the 4.10.605.3 version in the "about" page of the phone. It does not update to 5.28.605.2
Can anyone help me?

Reboot to the bootloader / hboot screen and read the text there. OS-######.

Any way to disable one Mic? It seems one of mine is broken and it is not in warranty anymore. I'd just need for calls, elsewhere it's working. Thank you.

Hi guys,
I'm a new here and I have some questions about updating. Sorry for stupid questions. I've red many instructions and now in my mind mixed all of them. )
I could't find full instruction for updating (HTC One M7 from Verizon), step by step. Always all instructions begins from the middle, missing many things.
I have used HTC One M7 m7lvw from Verizon with Android 4.4.3
I'd like to update up Lolilop 5.02 (6.22.605.3_M7_WL_L50_SENSE60_MR_Debloated.zip) from Santod040.
But I confused about steps of updating. There are a lot different things, I'm just lost.
Steps to upgrade firmware and ROM (as I understood):
1) Nandroid. What is it? No information on first page. I guess this is saving your own info but not sure. If I don't have my own info can I skip this step?
2) Unlock bootloader with custom recovery. How? No information on first page. I guess TWRP 2.7.0.8 or newer is related to this section.
3) Wipe everything. For what? If I'm going to install new ROM why I need to wipe? And it doesn't info how to wipe.
4) Update firmware (downloaded: m7vzw_6.22.605.3_LP_Firmware_NoBoot-NoRecovery-combo.zip). The instruction is clear on page 1.
5) Update ROM (downloaded: 6.22.605.3_M7_WL_L50_SENSE60_MR_Debloated.zip). Flash the ROM and reboot. How? No info.
If I did mistakes (for sure I did) please correct me.
Thank you.

Are you s-off and rooted? If not, just install HTC sync and plug your phone until your PC. If the phone is sick it will update automagically

Hi Guys,
In your opinion what is the best ROM for M7WLV? I have HTC One from Verizon with version 4.4.3 and it has never updated. Now I'm trying to figure out what version of Android to choose for updating. I don't know how will work the phone with new updates. I mean may be it will work with low speed, lags, loose stability, and etc. Could you please to share with your experience to make me right choice. Thank you.

The FAQ thread has the answer for you. It also has other odd frequent questions asked. It having slow downs lag and instability is because of the apps you install or maybe power saver enabled? My wife's phone is stock and only had slow downs with apps that clogged her phone's memory up. I didn't know which did it and just factory reset the thing and the lag was gone.

I really need some help here.
I have I337 GS4 on T-Mobile. I have had tried numerous T-Mobile TW based ROMs from 4.2 upto 4.4.2 and they have worked fine.
Now I have connections issues on 4.4.4 such as this one. I really want my phone to run this ROM but signal is completely lost after reboot and can't establish any connection with T-Mobile at all. I thought it was the T-Mobile 4.4.4 ROM issue so I tried MD v1.1 universal FNJ4 but it was giving me same no connection problem( tried both AT&T and T-Mobile on installation prompt but same lost connection issues).
It just works fine on KANGAPOP 5.0, 4.4 as well as SKYFALL. Connections are secure and smooth and stable on these ROMs right out of the box.
Does anyone know how I can fix the lost signal and have this ROM run on my i337? I have actually waited 14 months hoping iB4 would release T-Mobile based version that has WiFi calling yet I can not run this beautiful ROM on my phone yet due to this problem.

IR Blaster?
First off....Great Rom! I'm a addicted flasher and came back from Lollipop to this one.
Only problem I have is the IR Blaster seems to be not working.
I tried a bunch off apps but no go.....Can anyone tell me if theirs is working and with what app? Thanks!

Media_rw folder access in Titanium Backup?
Does anyone here use Titanium backup?
Is it all 4.4.4 ROMs, or just this one, where Titanium can no longer read the media_rw folder? It worked before on my last 4.4.2 ROM.
Looking at the media_rw folder access properties, it looks like it is properly set to r/w.
Using folders within this is the only way to get Titanium to 'protect' backups. It doesn't work if you point it to external SD storage any other way.

My phone isn't asking for a password on reboot or cold boot.
Settings: Screen lock with pin, lock after 10 minutes, power key instantly locks.

Thanks for the reply. Great info for those who have post-MDL bootloaders. I got a beta-patch from op and the problems gone now with 4.4 modem and MDL bootloader. Only problem that I encountered was with Softcard app or a NFC wallet for T-mobile. this app worked fine on cutom roms based on 4.4.2 or prior versions but I think its the modem related as the softcard worked fine on pre 4.4.4 T-mobile ROMs while on MDL modem. More testing needs to be done I guess.

I'm having an issue where my sdcard get unmount by itself. Try a few kernels but still the same. Anyone else having save issue?

Help with Rooting my SGS4 SGH-M919 UVUFNK2
Hi all,
yes I'm a nooby, and would like to root my T-Mobile phone to be able to customize it and use more favorable apps.
I have downloaded the MD 1.3 ROM, Odin, S4 drivers, Kies and I'm trying to follow the guide as much as possible
but it says to boot into custom recovery. Doesn't the phone need to be rooted first before I can Flash TWRP or CWM?
Sorry if I sound totally confused here..
If someone could please assist, I would be appreciative.
Thanks,

If someone could please assist, I would be appreciative.
Thanks,
Michael

This is how I do it. First I copy supersu. Zip to my phone. Then I flash twrp using oden with auto reboot not checked. When its done I pull the cord then pull the battery. Then manually go to recovery. Install SuperSU. Then reboot to system and start SU and it tries to kill Knox and update binary (normal). At this point you have a rooted phone with stock fw and a custom recovery ready for a costom ROM. But I think this Dev says in one of the latest posts you can just install twrp and install ROM and it will root.
