Hei folks
I saw that sprint rolled out 4.4.4 for the Note 3. Can someone confirm that? Someone installed the update already?
Thanks mates

If you don't care about tripping the knox counter, odin TWRP, and flash SuperSU 2.02. You'll have root.

I used odin to install twrp. Once twrp is installed i downloaded the flashable supersu and flashed it. Than i installed supersu on the phone. Easy peasy
Problem now is that since your recovery is not regular, not sure how you can grab the updates. I do want 4.4.4 as well

I alreadt took the upgrade. I odined back to stock first.
I also Odin back to stock NC5. Took the update OTA to 4.4.4. I then used ODIN to flash TRWP Recovery and installed SuperSU1.94.
So now I have 4.4.4 and Full Root and SuperSU.

In hopes for the official jelly bean release I reverted to stock and installed the latest update. My question is, will I still be able to root using the same method since the update came with a new modem. Thanks

Yes you can still root the same way. Just install custom recovery via Odin and Superuser via custom recovery.

Glad to hear it worked smoothly for you! I'm about to do the same.
EDIT: Smoothly re-Rooted
I can also confirm IO Root worked like a charm after this update.
So best thing to do is return to stock the re-root??
I was stock rooted. Took the update. Re rooted. That's all.

Just letting you all know that one of the changes it makes is to enable lte bands 26 and 41
another is it removed twrp as my recovery and replaced it with the stock recovery.

Guys...it takes like a minute to reroot using iorootv11. Just do it after the OTA update. There is no point of trying to use apps to try to preserve root when it is so simple.
Any chance we'll see a TWRP flashable version of stock ZV8? I'd use the LG tool to start over, update to ZV8, root, etc., but then I'd have to apply all the xposed mods, set things how they were etc. I tried flashing stock recovery, then doing the update the normal way, but it led to a bootloop and didn't work.
Edit - Or can someone tell me how they flashed stock recovery, where I can get the recovery, and whether or not it worked? I got my stock recovery zip from a Sprint user in the the TWRP thread, but could only flash it via flashify. Flashing the zip via TWRP would not work.

You wont be able to install the frimware unless your device status reads official ( menu- setting- about phone- status ). So unfortunately you will either have to wait for a modified version of the firmware or revert back to stock with odin tar and then take the OTA update.
Yes smn-9005 is what most of us on NABD (& NAB ) used to root our phones.

Do you lose the engineering bootloader?
You can also flash with Odin either philz or twrp. ... Keep in mind this rom will reflash stock recovery. .. so uncheck auto reboot in Odin and boot into twrp or Philz using vol up home and power and flash su zip
This has a kit kat bootloader that as of right now is not ! Not! !!!! Not !!!! Able to Downgrade .... so once you have nab you can't use any 4.3 roms. ...

Does flashing the unroot tar wipe the device, or at least the apps? I assume that method does not trip Knox 0x0?

As I said, my phone DOES read official, thanks to Wanam Xposed. I don't get any "modified" error message when I look for updates, just "the latest updates have already been installed". Do I need to undo Kingo and Wanam or has the update just not reached the DFW area yet?
Sorry

I misread that, try running the xposed framework disabler, reboot, and try to redownload the software. If you get the message " your device is up to date', then it probably means it hasnt rolled out to your area yet.
I tried this but the phone just boot looped when it said it was booting into recovery after flashing the tar....

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 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.
