I was wondering where I can find the stock firmware. Mr Rakesh, i bought a new S4. Sorry for replying late Rakesh. I had that Firmware upgrade encountered issue with Exlamation mark inside a yellow triangle. So had given up! But thru the XDA website someone mentioned your site.

I with almost not anticipating the positive result followed the prompt and Vola! Thank you once again. Ive tried pretty much everything, after the MDK failed and semi soft bricked my device, the carny fw worked after I got the yellow triangle, with device to computer sign, Which is the ME7 builod like I already had.

Mhaan its irratating you buy such an expensive phone and soo much hassle. Hey Rakesh, i bought my s4 from saudi.. Hi Pratik, Verizon does not release its firmware to be downloaded separately, so it is very difficult to tell you a way for that outside the USA.

I mean using mobile Odin. Check that yourself and if it supports, the steps will be the same. Firstly, thanks for the quick reply! Do you have any other suggestions for the language issue?

After rooting and getting a custom recovery mod should I just follow the update via Odin instructions above?

If I do that will I lose all of my apps? Titanium backup needs to root the device. What ago can I use to backup without routing. Should I still root the device anyway. Seems like most people so that? Thanks, should I factory reset before flashing the new firmware, or after flashing? I already installed the firmware and forgot to factory reset, is that bad?
