In our last post regarding the Android 4.3 firmware for the Google Edition Galaxy S 4 leaked by SamMobile, we warned you not to install the firmware on your standard Galaxy S 4 (GT-I9500/GT-I9505) as you might brick your device.
However, after some further toying around by the folks over at SamMobile, they discovered that after porting it to their standard Galaxy S 4 (GT-I9505), there were absolutely no issues whatsoever, as the phone was fully functional and running stock Android 4.3.
Once again, the instructions (per SamMobile) and files necessary to get the update can be found below after the break.
