Install TWRP by following the instructions at https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxys4internationalqualcomm.html


To upgrade TWRP, download the latest version at https://dl.twrp.me/jflte/. Place the .img file on a SD card and then flash it to the recovery partition in TWRP by going to Install -> Images -> Select the .img file.


===Loading Cyannogen===


You can download and flash TWRP (TeamWin Recovery) via Rasher (Recovery tools) or TWRP manger. Both apps can be installed from the Google Play Store.  
#Download and install adb
I'm not sure if the jfltexx ClockWorkMod recovery will work but I've heard it may not, so I'd just flash TWRP (I prefer it anyways, much nicer UI.)
#Download the CyanogenMod build package and optional 3rd party packages (such as Goole Apps)
You can still flash it if you have ClockWorkMod, it will just replace your recovery with TWRP.
#Place the CyanogenMod .zip package, as well as any optional .zip packages, on the root of /sdcard
#*You may do this by copying the files in the running Android system or
#*Boot into recovery mode (Vol UP & Home & Power) and use adb. {{code|adb push filename.zip /sdcard/}}
#Enter Recovery mode if not already
#Optional (Recommended): Select the ''Backup'' button to create a backup.
#Select ''Wipe'' and then ''Factory Reset''.
#Select ''Install'' (if you're running CyanogenMod Recovery this is 'Apply Update').
#Navigate to {{code|/sdcard}} and select the CyanogenMod .zip package.
#Follow the on-screen notices to install the package.

If you want CM12 official, you can use the jfltexx ROM zip.
==Upgrading to LineageOS==
Just make sure to flash team win recovery jfltexx 2.8.4.0 (2.8.5.0 did not work at all for me.)
 
You just need to match the recovery variant with the ROM varient.
*https://download.lineageos.org/jfltexx
Flashing the jfltexx recovery and using the jfltexx CM12 did not brick my jfltecan (I337M) phone or cause any problems. Works perfect.
 
Once TWRP is installed, installing LineageOS requires downloading the desired version of LineageOS and placing it on a SD card. Install the .zip file in TWRP.
