Nab is kit kat ....bootloader from kit kat won't boot a mj4 rom ...either flash mj4 tar in Odin or flash complete nab tar in Odin .... and read before you do things like this

Well, you do dumb things when you're tired. My intent was to flash KitKat.
What's the best tutorial for flashing using Odin?
Thanks!

Odin http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2657447 that and it should get you up and running on Kit Kat then root if you want to be rooted.
All set. Thanks for the assistance!
Glad you got it

I had previously tripped Knox.
So I updated to NAB using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2657447
Everything worked like a charm.
Knox was reset to 0x0!
Did anyone else have this experience?

Are you sure you had 0x0? Did you just rooted or Custom recovery?

Absolutely certain I had 0x0 after flashing using that method.
Prior to manually updating I had Knox 0x1
I Rooted and Custom TWRP.
I followed EVERY step in that step-by-step. With ONE exception, I mistakenly flashed the Engineering Bootloader BEFORE following that tutorial.

As far as I know there is no MJ4 engineering bootloader. The engineering bootloader is NA4 which is the first kit kat leak and the bootloader is is unlocked.

I think what freeza did is morph the NA4 engineering with the NAB bootloader thus creating a daily usable NAB bootloader.

I'm not so certain. I believe that unlocked bootloader was obtained the old-fashioned way, by it landing in the right hands. If what you've suggested were true, then why release it as unique? The OP of that thread makes it pretty clear that it's a very nice item to have and we won't know if another is coming.

I just believe it's the fact you have an engineering bootloader..... The bootloader you are now on is that is the engineering one or stock?

Okay, so let me see if I have the steps correct on this.
1. You flashed a custom recovery and rooted your device, thereby tripping Knox. Did you use CFAutoroot or Kingo? The recovery would have tripped knox anyways, but just checking for root method.
2. You started with MJ4 or did you upgrade to MJ4 and if you upgraded, was Knox tripped before? (I started with MI3, some had MI5). This is mainly to find out if you tripped Knox before or after MJ4.
3. While on MJ4, you flashed the NAB engineering bootloader.
4. You ran the one-click to update to 4.4.2
If you can clear up points 1 and 2, you could probably turn this into a guide to help others.

The ability for call recording was lost in nc5. In nab it worked. Can I go back, as long as I flash the development boot loader first, to nab without borking anything?

It's working perfectly on many roms, just not on stock.

I normally don't like to recommend a specific rom, but the Ax fits that which you seek. Again, though, I encourage you to try as you like and see what is best for you.

Thanx wasnt sure...:good:
Hi all, I got a couple questions. I'm currently still on 4.3, running a safe-strapped Rom (Galaxy s4, VZW). I'd like to upgrade to KK.
Is the latest firmware available OTA still NC5?
What method will I need to upgrade, OTA or flash stock? Since I'm rooted, is an OTA even an option? I do have SuperSU pro's survival mode (I heard that worked for a couple people). I'm guessing otherwise I'd have to Towel root.
Finally, I assume I should delete the custom ROM slot and factory wipe my stock slot before updating. Will doing a reset affect safe strap, or will it leave it alone?
Thanks!

Thank you for the link, and everything else you've done around here, Bob. I read around a little but I couldn't figure this out: do I have to use Surge's method to upgrade or can I take an alternative route (in guessing Odin) , now that towel root exists?
I'm hesitant only bc I tried to use his downgrade /upgrade methods on a different phone and had some problems. Thanks.

You can't use ROM slots with 3.72 safestrap. ROM must be installed to stock slot. Take and research this info.

I would recommend Odin full wipe tar. This gets your phone 100% stock. It's safe, simple and proven to work.
Watch the videos they help a lot.
I haven't done it the other way!

First i would like to say, Thanks for checking out my post. Now i have a question. I am running freezas rom and i have the nh7 firmware. How do i upgrade this to nk4?
Is it true i have to facyory reset my phone and run the ota update? If so it will not allow me to update, because my device had a custom rom. Also where can i find the nk4 tar file so i can odin it to my note 3?

If you factory reset, then odin the nk4 update, you will be on official firmware. Odin will over-write your old system, giving you official status. This is how we all go from rooted roms to official in order to get updates.

Or wait for a dev to put out a rooted update. And lollipop is being sent out so maybe wait a little bit.
