Download link???

Quick note to anyone coming from MJ9, this update can remove your root, and the MJ9 saferoot method will not work on it.
Happy updating to those out there!

I've lost root too..does anyone know of a root process for the build? I haven't tried the process listed in the Development section as it doesn't say anything about the VRUAND3 build...
Thanks!!

Saferoot is not working with the new update VRUAND3 so don't waste your time.

At the moment we don't know yet. But I was told today that you can go back to 4.1.1 with a great risk of bricking your device.

If you updated to 4.3 you cannot go back to 4.1.1
Also going to 4.1.1 is touchy. If you were to go back you need to go to 4.1.2
Basically if you have the official 4.3 update and beyond you cannot unlock the bootloader or in some instances root.
I am using the Skynote Rc2.5 ROM but I am technically coming from 4.1.2. There is no official 4.2.x update for this version of the Note 2.

Right, I was asking because the ND3 update doesn't appear to be any different than MJ9 firmware wise except for what I assume are mostly changes in the baseband to accomodate the Telus bands. I would think that safeboot will be updated easily for this minor build but I am not any expert by any means.
I also saw people talking about for the same Telus update for the S3 to just Odin backflash VRUCNC1 4.3 to VRUCML1 4.3 with success (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2575661&page=153). Anyone tried that? I might actually try it myself to get root back. I don't this new "update". I think VZ did this more to take away root than add some really necessary Canadian roaming anyway.

Curious to see what your results are if you do try this. I also feel that VZW did this update more to take root away, especially considering that the base band could have been incorporated into the (hopefully) upcoming 4.4 update.
Yup, this annoyed me enough that I finally got an account!

this update was just to steal root. they had already tried using the my verizon app to take it. telus uses gsm and the same lte frequency verizon uses. all vzw note 2's could already "roam" on telus. this was just vzw being f**ktards trying to control us.

Has anyone been able to revert or re root their phone after this?

Other users are reporting that you can Odin back to MJ9 and then root with saferoot. See this thread for details... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52792973

I was forced the vruand3 update at about 4 am while I was sleeping. I woke up to no root and some issues tied to the freedom app not being uninstalled. I flashed back to mj9 with odin. I rerooted with saferoot. I was still having the connection issues with everything google related. I took the ota update again to try to fix the issue. The google issue fixed itself after the ota, but my root wasn't taken away this time. So now I'm on build vruand3 and have full root access. Maybe someone can shed some light on this , or it will help someone

First FEB OTA, NOT ICS-Incoming Software Update Thread OLD

http://support.verizonwireless.com/system_update/rezound.html
New update coming soon apparently. I would recommend people holding off on it until a stock rooted version is released.
If the package includes new radios it might help us out with ICS roms or give us better signal strength.
Not holding cause I'm not rooted. I'm upgrading this HO! Right away. Sick battery issues

Hopefully if there are new radios they are GSM/CDMA hybrid to solve the Texting/SMS problem, and to make the HTC Rezound a world phone!!!!!

I just got mine Sunday and am still 100% stock. So I'll get this as soon as it comes out. Been waiting to unlock the bootloader and root it, just to run the phone for a few weeks to see how it is.

unlocked bootloader
Can I install the OTA on the rezound if the bootloader is unlocked only?
Hi, speaking as a newbie with a Rezound that's rooted and has an unlocked bootloader.
If I install this update, it'll break my root right? Would it affect the bootloader?
If I don't want it to affect my root status, would I have to wait until a "hacked" version is released by the developers here?
And if I ever install a custom rom, I could only get software updates through the developer of that rom, correct?
Thanks guys!
Per the PDF
Verizon Wireless is pleased to announce a new software update,

Yup. I deferred it, but I just checked and it's there. About 54mb it says. I won't download it until I know it doesn't break root or anything else I have going here. I did download that root protect software just in case it actually makes a difference.
is there a way for you to somehow get the http:// link?
Con its still downloading for me. I'll see what I can find when its complete.
I didn't ask for it start downloading, it just started on its own.
It is likely it won't let start installing automatically. So if it prompts you to install, connect to USB and see if you can find the zip file.
No update yet here, but my mainver was updated running ics so that may be the reason
I'm living on a yellow submarine
If you aren't running the stock rom it probably won't authenticate.
mine locked up at 54%. lol. on clean rom 1.5. going to do a nandroid and restart I guess.
The update downloaded to my phone and i hit ok to install it but it didn't do anything. no reboot or anything. Any suggestions
Guys.. dsb9938 1.0.2 rom has had this base now for a long time. Been running it for a while now and very nice. I didn't like the themed version so I'm running the stockish build. Just saying

How is the new fw? Several updates have been available for download but you are the first one to give a description. Thanks for this!
I flashed the ML4 fw via ODIN and what I immediately noticed is a more responsive home button. I was beginning to suspect hardware problem but this update hopefully proved me wrong.

Yes mate, it Seems a bit more responsive for sure and battery seems to last a bit longer too.. Just the third day but battery lasting more I am sure as I lost only about 4% at night (with 3g on), when previously I use to lose around 10%.
Let's hope we get 4.3 or 4.4 soon.

I am not rooted and total stock mate.
Don't think update is available to rooted devices although the message you are getting shows that you might be able to download the update just keep trying and within 48 hours you will get this update for sure.

Battery backup seems to have improve a lot with this update:
This is when I am using my phone with 3g always on (but for 6 hours at night) and 6 emails always on sync.
Don't play games though so that might be the reason for such good battery life.

ok bro I flashed stock official but rooted and reseted the counters with triangle away atlast again device status official so got update downloaded it installed it the phone reeboted and popup came update not installed please update from kies
Go full stock, update and then root. Tha should work for you.
Sent from my GT-I9152 using Tapatalk
@hardik190 since you are already doing flashing why not just download the latest firmware from samsung-updates.com then flash thru odin? after that you can root.Also if your recovery is custom and not stock your status will always be custom even with triangle away,

I just tried kingo root on ANA1 it says "Roor failed Not Support".
their support team helped me the first time I rooted, my problems came from internet connectivity, kept loosing it during their root process
my mega isn't in front of me to tell you which version but it's the one from metro
also you have to keep your eye on the phone and the computer, there might be permission notices on the phone and some disconnect reconnect notices on the computer,

There's easy way to root and install custom recovery (TWRP) available in the forum hence I won't bother with the kingoapp.
Check the development forum and you will find the topic.

Twrp is good but kingo is one click root thru windows. No need to go into download mode. No binary count increase or system status change to custom. However I think samsung had patched the vulnerability on the latest firmware thus kingo no longer works. Kingo worked on older fw.

Note 3 4.4.2 Test build may be imminent

Looks like the credible SamMobile has 4.4.2 kitkat in their palms. We could expect a leak to be soon, in the past they have been really good about leaking firmware like how they already have for the s4 by contacting thier "elite friends."The picture below is a screenshot of the kitkat easteregg and wrote note 3 on it. Some of the things im most looking forwards to is Google wallet and the ability to hide apps from the app drawer. FUNFUNFUN
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8E4dspICPJE
Basicly saying we'll leak it when it become more stable. It doesn't surprise me considering the s4 got it leaked already, but what does surprise me is that they got a kitkat leak first, considering we have the newer/premium device.
SamMobile on twitter posted "#NEXTUPDATE (Too buggy atm)"

OK just a thought but if we do get the release.... the leaked one could there be a chance that there is some way we could unlock the bootloader.. being that it is a leak not fully locked down like the officials would be.

They leak will be as locked down if it's for our variant... And either way, chances are It will be for the international version so either way it's irrelevant. But it shouldn't be too hard to port it hopefully.

Can this be installed on a Dev edition? Since it probably has the aboot partition included, will it lock the Dev edition phone? Once a dev makes this rom suitable for the retail version, is there a way to extract and repack the files without the aboot portion? How does one make an Odin-flashable file anyway if one has the partitions like boot.img, modem.bin etc? I've always been wanting to learn to make my own Odin .tar files in case I want to flash and don't have recovery installed.
Thanks
Isn't anyone concerned about this update, I mean look at the SE Android Status from N9005 from the test build it is currently showing as Enforcing. For those of us with the Retail SM-N900V doesn't this mean no more Safestrap Recovery? Also, if you go back and read about the Test Firmware it does a complete wipe of Data, so shouldn't we be worried about Root too? I certainly understand the excitement over 4.4.2 but isn't anyone paying attention to what the test build has done?
Hard to be excited about losing Root and Safestrap to get KitKat...

You mean Root has been restored already on the international version, which this is mainly due to the Unlocked Bootloader, which it is simpler to restore Root on a device that has an Unlocked Bootloader as you just install/flash the SU.zip in custom Recovery and Root is restored, works for Unlocked devices. There lies the problem, for those of us with the retail SM-N900V if the KitKat update does a complete wipe on install deleting the internal storage all is lost, if SE is set to Enforcing it could be a cold winter.

It's not really Root I'm worried about, I'm more concerned with Recovery. If the SE status changes from "Permissive" to "Enforcing" there goes our ability to flash new custom 4.4.2 ROMs that I'm sure will come out. It will be like owning a SM-N900A.

I was under the impression that the only data wipe was when people are Odin-ing the update, rather than accepting an OTA. On the past androids i had (incredible, thunderbolt, galaxy nexus, s3, note 10.1, nexus 7) i haven't had an update that wiped data from an OTA.

For some reason I don't think they are going to set it to enforcing. Because they haven't for the past 3 updates. Even if they did. Hash would be able to easily cook up ss because on the at&t note 3 and Verizon s4 and s3 are enforcing and he was able to do it... Never underestimate @Hashcode

Are there devs that is working on bringing root to kitkat? Just asking...apologize if there are
Root worked for me but I did it the long way. Reverted to D80010o using LG FLash Tools then used ioroot22 to root. Had AT&T push the q update. Stayed rooted. Got the KitKat D80020c update and updated. Root stuck.
So I am running KitKat rooted.
So if you do it this way, ioroot22 works.
However I suspect that you are looking for a solution once the KitKat update is installed, then to root. Of all the threads that I have read on the subject (all of them), there is no way that I am aware of to root KitKat once it is already installed.

However I suspect that you are looking for a solution once the KitKat update is installed, then to root. Of all the threads that I have read on the subject (all of them), there is no way that I am aware of to root KitKat once it is already installed.

Eventually phones shipped from LG will have KitKat pre-installed. So, yes I'm talking about rooting Kitkat, not keeping Root after Kitkat.

Root worked for me but I did it the long way. Reverted to D80010o using LG FLash Tools then used ioroot22 to root. Had AT&T push the q update. Stayed rooted. Got the KitKat D80020c update and updated. Root stuck.
So I am running KitKat rooted.

What did u use to "retain" root?
He probably just updated via OTA. You can keep root permission like that. If he flashed KitKat .kdz and then rooted it, well, then it's a whole different story.

[Q] Rooted Stock MDK 4.2.2 to HyperDrive?

Hi everyone. I am on rooted stock 4.2.2 MDK and want to install a new 4.4.2 ROM. I haven't done any flashing in about a year (since my GNEX) and wanted to know if it's smart to go from 4.2.2 MDK right to the latest Hyperdrive ROM (which seems like one of the best). Any thoughts?

I did. Hyperdrive 16.1. No regrets. Just be sure you "Loki" & install a custom recovery such as TWRP or Philz Touch.

Sorry for all the questions but what do you mean by Loki? Also once I install Hyperdrive (or any Kitkat ROM) do I still have the MDK bootloader?

Well if your phone is already rooted and has a custom recovery on it you're good to go.
I don't run TW ROMs really but from my experience just flash the TW KToonsez kernel after flashing the ROM and you'd be all set. Not sure what kernel comes with HD ... Just read the HD post as I'm sure SBreen has most your questions covered.
And yes you'd still have your MDK bootloader. Only way you'd lose that is by using Odin and any other firmware other than MDK... so don't do that!!
Or by taking an OTA update from Verizon. Don't do that either!!

Use flashify to install latest twrp. Flash hyperdrive normally and yes you will still have the mdk bootloader

Awesome, thanks guys. Currently have TWRP recovery installed, not sure if its the most recent though. Currently making a nandroid backup with it right now. Good to know things can be as easy as the GNEX days lol, appreciate the help

You don't need to but I would recommend trying any modem newer than mj7, because they take advantage of the new lte bands.

Any chance you have a link? Trying to take advantage of the new LTE bands was the main reason I am updating to 4.4.x

Flash the modem only versions. You can use retail or dev edition modems but I prefer retail if you're going to stay on touchwiz. Use mj7, mk2, nc2, or nc5 modems. Try them all out to see what works best for you.
If all you're trying to do is access the new aws lte (rebranded as xlte) then the modem is all you need to update.

If you don't like the laggy TW roms go try the Google Play Edition ROM.
