OK, so I downloaded the FXZ and sure enough the get-var's were in there.  The other error I got was that the filename path was too long.   SO,

 

1. Take the zip that you downloaded and shorten the name.

2. Extract the zip

3. Delete the .xml file in the extracted folder

4. Download the xml that I have attached here

5. Place the xml into the extracted folder

6. Run RSD and navigate to the xml in the extracted folder.

You know, that's an error that usually happens when you've flashed a newer version.  Most of the fxz's I've seen have that at the end.  You can try removing that line as well and give it a go.

The phone is on 4.1.1, the fxz I DL'ed is for that ver. I tried the ICS and in Fastboot it said it was a downgraded one and would not allow me to continue. Which line should i remove in the xml?

Oh good greif. Can't skip that one. Maybe try flashing just the system img with fastboot

Copy the system.img file to the same folder as fastboot. Open a command Window and cd to the folder they are in. Then - fastboot flash system system.img From My S4 Dev Edition

Btw, what version of rsd are you using?

Looks like 5.6? You might grab a newer version if the fastboot fails.
