I rooted my SCH 1545 running 4.4.2. Now I want to install Cyanogenmod 11.

I used towelroot.apk and installed Supersu. The installer app for CM11 doesnt recognize my device so I have flash custom recovery and install manually. Except I have no idea how...

Unless you are on an MDK bootloader device you cannot flash CWM or any other AOSP rom. The bootloader on later builds is locked down tighter than Fort Knox so cannot flash a AOSP kernel . Nor can you install any custom recovery other than Safestrap. If you are on a safestrap compatible build then there are several nice touchwiz based ROMs you can flash.

My S4 has Safestrap & Hyperdrive.
Hyperdrive has a lot of nice tweaks (I really like the ability to change notification icon colors, but some of my usual apps are not working.
Namely; Automatelt, Equalizer and Blink.
Hands-free opens up two separate instances, when docked in the iBolt xPro nav dock and I can't figure how to make it stop.

I installed safestrap on my phone and then installed hyperdrive. My phone was bricked. What kernel did you use? I hate this bloat ware.

How can I tell if I am on a build compatible with safestrap? I have seen posts say that it can be M7 M1 but I can't find that anyplace on my phone?

I tried to install one version of safestrap..it gets to 90% then says success but when I try to restart safestrap does not kick in.
