If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great. I've been trying to get a custom recovery on my friend's and my own Verizon S4's for a while now. We're both rooted, but on the ME7 update. Not sure what I gotta do for our phones to finally get a custom recovery so we can use custom ROMs. I've tried using the Goo app, and Rom Manager app, but when booting into recovery, it says "Downloading...Do not turn off target!!" and it gets stuck there. Nothing happens ten minutes later.
Not gonna happen....right now, anyway. Only works with MDK.

Verizon rolls these out in batches.
You can try manually checking for the update - Settings, More, About phone, Software update.
I've been checking every half hour. I odin back to ml1. Did kies emergency install. Did verizon updateer thing. After 4 days you would think it would be here. I did notice in file manager there is sdcard/emulated/0. What is this.

That's a normal folder path in JB. There is the manual update in the other threads if you're dying to apply the update.
Why don't you download this update.zip to your external sdcard and boot to stock recovery and apply it.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2502591

That's kernel panic guy. He's annoying.
Power off phone, let it cool down, then power on into whatever mode ya want. Should work fine.
If not, reflash current recovery (make sure you're flashing the proper version of either TWRP or Philz CWM, made for KitKat).

Hey all,
I'm hoping someone can post the stock Sprint dialer stuff. I'm on the Sprint G2 using a G3 rom and there are issues with the dialer app crashes when the device is set as Sprint. I'm thinking that Sprint may have a carrier specific dialer app that isn't present in this rom and that's why it crashes. If anyone can post these files it wold be much appreciated.

No, no side loading or anything that writes to system until we get root.
