Hello I'm new here!
I had unrooted ICS and then later on upgraded it to Jellybean 4.1.1
Would my phone still be rooted? or has it gone back to its normal state but to jellybean?
Can i install Omega over Jellybean?
New to all this so not sure about all this.
As far as i know, omega jb rom is pre rooted, I installed it and it seems rooted already....... go and have a look at the omega forum!
Go into recovery and see if you have CWM installed.
If you have, you should be rooted and can flash Omega.

Cwm and root are 2 separate things..root is related to kernel and cwm is a recovery..if you have cwm you can flash omega..but as omega rom is pre rooted you will get root as well

If you are going to flash custom ROM; use a toolkit to Root it; flash custom recovery of your choice. Then copy custom ROM to ur phone; go to recovery and flash it. You don't need to downgrade your boot loader.

Does this mean we can downgrade from 4.3 to 4.2.2 custom ROM?
I'm not having a good time with 4.3 stock rooted and custom kernel and thinking about going back to CM 10.1.2. All I need to do is flashing the custom ROM in recovery?

Yes you will be fine. Before PA 4.3 rom was released, I was using Latest 4.3 bootloader with 4.2.2. I am going to revert to 4.2 as well. I noticed 4.3 battery is really good but sometime touchscreen doesnt response / volume buttons doesnt work.

for unresponsive screen go to 'developer options', 'hardware accelerated options', 'disable HW overlays' and select 'always use gpu for screen compositing'. Works for me but setting doesn't seem to stick on reboots.
^^ oh okay thanks but I am already back to the good old 4.2.2 .

Hi I´m quite new to this and did recently flash my second custom rom. I went from CM10.1 (4.2.2) back to stock image, and flashed
[AOSP]Official 4.3- S4 Google Edition- Finaly v2.0 - Feel the Experience of Nexus. The phone is running hot and I´m kind of dissapointed with the
lack of tweaks in Google Edition. So I´d like to go back to CM
So if I understand you right I can from 4.3 flash my stock image (from TWRP) which was on 4.2.2? Without worrying.
Did you make a nandroid backup when you were stock? That should be the easiest way to get back to stock. If you didn't then you will need to use odin to flash back to stock.

The latest SuperSU that you flash in recovery is the only thing that works on AOSP/AOSP based roms (Anything that isn't Cyanogenmod, AOKP, ParanoidAndroid, PAC, etc)
You have to flash this unless you want broken sensors: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2147194
Select the first zip and flash it before that rom of your choice or you will have problems.

Hello
I have a Nexus 4, running 4.2.2 stock with root. The OTA reminder is driving me crazy. How do i update to 4.3 with root?
I had the same problem on my Xoom and there i just downloaded a rooted stock image and flashed it trough CWM.
Anyone got an idea?

You could do the same with the Nexus. Download a stock rooted 4.3 ROM, and flash it. Use titanium backup to restore your stuff.
The problem is that i can't find a stock rooted rom.
Or this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010887
If so, deodexed or odexed?
Thanks.

Deodexed is easier to theme and mod.

it all depends on your boot loader
if you rooted at 4.2.2 and installed a 4.3 rom you can still go back to a 4.2.2 stock
if your 4.3 when you rooted there is no going back to 4.2.2
Hey guys was hoping to get a little help. I am currently running foxhound 4.1 on my S4. The baseband version is I9505XXUFNA5. Its OS 4.4.2. In the process of flashing this rom according to the instructions on the dev thread said i had to flash a different bootloader and modem before flashing the rom. This process worked fine and i have been running without issue. Work has now decided that they want everyone on Android 4.3 so we can use apps they made to make our job easier so i need to go back to 4.3. I attempted this last night and when i try to flash a 4.3 rom via cwm it returns an error saying that the bootloader is the incorrect one and fails and i have to reinstall foxhound again to make the phone usable. Any one know how i go about getting back to 4.3 or where to get the correct bootloader and modem so i can flash them via odin and then install Androind 4.3? Any help would be very much appreciated.
Cheers Jeff
Nobody can downgrade from 4.4.2
WTF really?? Cant i flash 4.3 bootloader and modem and then go back to 4.3?

Nope not at this stage cannot downgrade to older bootloader, sorry.
The best you can do is install a 4.3 custom rom. Try an echoe rom, version 12.1 the final bean I think should do.
