DISCLAIMER:Before proceeding, please note that modifying your phone's firmware will void its warranty. YOU ARE TOTALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR DEVICE.

Also note that you have to wipe your device and erase everything! As in "EVERYTHING". You may use Moborobo or any backing-up software available in the internet.Another thing, installing AOSP Rom on your phone removes some features of the S4 i.e. Air Gestures, Air View, etc. But will still have the power to do S-Beam, as NFC is functional on the 4.3 Google Edition. ..DO NOT TRY THIS IF YOU HAVE NO OR LITTLE KNOWLEDGE ON FLASHING ROMS! ASK QUESTIONS IF THERE'S SOMETHING NOT CLEAR TO YOU.
