Galaxy Gear + Galaxy S4 on 4.2.2? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

I recently got a replacement S4 with version 4.2.2, so I rooted it and installed Hyperdrive rsl10 rom. Now my Galaxy Gear watch won't connect. Does anyone have a fix for this? Thanks for the help guys.

I believe you will have to flash a 4.3 rom since you won't be taking Verizon ota updates. Gear watch needs 4.3 roms

Ok I haven't seen where I can install a 4.3 rom on this 4.2 build.

What's your baseband? Are you using Safestrap or Loki'd TWRP?

Ok, then you have two options. You can either go back to stock and update to 4.3 or wait until Safestrap is released for 4.3 so you can flash Hyperdrive RLS11.

Mateopase is right. I didn't catch that you were stuck on safestrap...

Bootloader Progress

I was wondering if there is any progress on the bootloader unlock, or should I just pretend that it won't happen?
Also, I noticed that there aren't any developers that have created a 4.3 TouchWiz rom. Is this development halted because of the KNOX security issues?
Thanks for the help!!
There are at least 2 TW 4.3 ROMs. One of them even has an Aroma installer.

This is the only one actually. It looks pretty good. Keep in mind, you need to be on MDK to use it since it uses a 4.3 kernel.

yeah, to be honest, I kind of was hoping for a bigger vender like Hyperdrive or Eclipse to do this to their ROM. Also, it looks like their 4.3 ROM is in early beta stages. thanks though!!
Anyone know anything about the bootloader progress?
Hi. I'm new to this, stuck on ME7 with Safestrap. Am I better off going back to stock and updating it OTA, then rooting? Is there a better recovery then that will allow me to update to 4.3 and eventually 4.4 Roms? Sorry the NOOB question.

Can't you guys downgrade with Odin? then install recovery and your rom?

Make a backup with your custom recovery- if your phone has the mdk boot loader, if it doesn't you'll have to use safestrap

MJ7 rom status?

Last I checked there wasn't a way to use any custom ROMs on a Verizon S4 running MJ7. Is this still the case?

Hyperdrive 12 is really your only viable roms...Some others are coming online. There are couple threads you would need to read. I'm sure some you tube videos are out. I did a guide in general section that gives a good idea of what to do.

Can I go ahead and install the latest MK2 update and still do Safestrap and HH?
If so I'm assuming I'll need to remove root, yes?

Yea you can update to mk2 to be able to take the ota you need to unroot and get rid of any xposed mods you may have and or restore anything you may have frozen using tibu.
If that still doesn't work you may have to Odin back to whatever your Current version is then take the ota
Then root using saferoot method and install Safestrap and you're off to the races.

I could have sworn I seen a thread after I was updating to MK2 how to install HyperDrive on MJ7/MK2 but have lost it now. Do you happen to know of the thread or a tutorial on how to get HyperDrive installed now that I'm running MK2 and rooted with Safestrape installed?

You just create a rom slot then flash the Hyperdrive zip plus the mk2 modules.. Then reboot and you're good.
Be sure you download the Hyperdrive for SS zip.

If your phone isn't an mdk or dev edition Verizon s4 there's no custom recovery like Philz for you.
Only SafeStrap.

As Mistertac said twice and I said twice, no you cannot get kitkat whatsoever. You can not get anything but 4.3 TW. That's it

4.3 Exploit?
The Android 4.3 builds on the Verizon i545 (MJ7, MK2) are quite easily exploited and rooted. But that's not the right question.
What matters is what bootloader version you have.
The MDK bootloader can be bypassed with Loki. None of the later bootloader builds allow arbitrary kernel or recovery flashes. Each build for the S4 has locked down the phone further. However, all of the i545 builds are currently rootable. What you can do once rooted is pretty limited post MDK.

Well you got to use Surge1223's method (just look for it in the general section) to partially upgrade your system to 4.4 with Odin and use AT&T's Safestrap 3.72 to be able to run a 4.4 rom. I think Bob is right, Echoe is the only option for Safestrap users on 4.4 right now.
