Read the other existing (many of them) threads that already exist about or mention the exact same thing. Currently you can look at the first to third pages of the General and Q & A sections or just use the search function to find them. Good luck.

I flashed the GE 4.3 for i9505, which is the following ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2348272
Today I've received an 16MB OTA that told me the feature I can find contacts directly when dialing. (p.s. I'm using the zh-CN language.)
Obviously, it cannot be updated cause the model is mismatch though I made it a try somehow.
My TWRP returned "status 7" err.
I googled it and found a version JWR66V.S015 (my current is S014).
Does anyone got this update?
Is there anyway to flash in or just waiting for new ROM?
p.s. I'm a newbie here and I don't have the permission to reply in the DEV forums
jarmal's new ROM comes out! QUEST CLEAR. Lock plz.

I would be perfect if only I9505 can be transformed into I9505G.
GE rom is faster and more stable than any other TW/AOKP/CM10.2 roms at present.

so it's not safe to do this update?

Not exactly. Currently we cannot install this update so it is uncertain whether it is safe or not

Thanks...I'm a noob about flashing, so when you flash your smartphone with another ROM you generally can't update via OTA?

Almost right. Better to say once if you have a third-party recovery, you cannot install OTA with right pattern.
Have updated my Tmobile LG G2 to Kitkat and want to debloat it (as I actually like the LG UI). However everything I google about Rooting just links to Kitkat being available but not how (or if) you can root it.
I assume that IORoot22 will only work with 4.2.2, and vroot/kingofroot don't work either, so does anyone know a way to do this?
Thanks in advance
This should be in the Q&A section

there is currently no way of rooting T-Mobile's Official KK update.
your best option at the moment is to flash back to 4.2.2 via KDZ > Root + Custom Recovery > Flash SmiLey's Stock KK ROM ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2664652 ) > Flash SuperSU zip before rebooting (Recovery will be lost after reboot).
or wait until an exploit is found, there are at least 3 threads discussing this exact thing in the G2 General Section
edit: This thread seems to be the most promising so keep an eye on it (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2667227)

Must have been moved it was originally in the Dev Section.
Okay, I somehow rooted my tmobile LG G2 with Kitkat, ran for awhile than did something (don't know what) that removed okay google function from home screen and slowed the google search to a snails pace.
So, like an idiot, I thought I'd just put it back to stock with the D80120a.KDZ. rebooted and restarted everything. BUT the phone still shows rooted in download mode, but rootchecker says I'm not rooted. Also tried to run SuperSU but it says no binary and won't load. Tried Flashify (to try and flash the SU zip) but it also said I couldn't flash because I'm not rooted.
So I ran LG R&D, none of my phone info shows - ran upgrade trying to return it to D80110c/g, but each time it says I'm current and nothing happens.
Have googled every possible search and can't find a fix.
No longer have recovery, because of the stock flash... So I'm in dire need of assistance. Can anyone help me?
Hi guys, I have a question regarding some roming stuff with the verizon version of the galaxy note 3. I am not new to roms by any means and I have been searching frantically to find one place with the complete answer im looking for. I made the early mistake of taking the OTA upgrade for KK, therefore I am currently running 4.4.2 with the NC4 build and NC4 baseband. Now while i have easily rooted my phone at this point with the towelroot. I also have had no problem getting the new 3.72 safestrap installed and running on my phone. My question now at this point is trying to figure out my next step with a new ROM I am trying install....I have been looking at all of my info to get the Hyperdrive ROM installed and I cant seem to find all the info I need in one location. Can I or can I not flash a new ROM to the NC4 baseband? I have seen some information where some people say I might be able to flash the NC2 kernal using ODIN and others say just trying to flash any ROM in general creates a black screen in which a battery pull needs to be done...yada yada.....? So in short, am I able to flash a ROM to the note 3 at this point or am I S.O.L? :crying:
You are not going to receive an answer because you posted a question in the "General" section. Hopefully a mod can move this thread to the "Q & A" section.
Thanks...
Gee thanks?

I am in the same exact predicament. Every rom I install just gives me a black screen. I'd love a solution to this.

Check out the OP by hsbadr he has done some great work and he lists very specific instructions on how to complete the flash of firmware/modem and rom without any problems
flashing note 3 custom roms etc to avoid "mandatory updates.
I'm in the same boat. I read that there's a possibility I should flash NC2 but I can't find a write up or sticky that says how. However I just received a notice that pointed me to some threads and answered my questions on terminology. ThankYou DavidFlory!! I will formally thank you in the thread. Until I can clear up the NC4/NC2 question I plan on keeping the rooted KitKat I've got. I'm scared Verizon/Google will attack again with a mandatory "update." Who's phone is this? What if I firewalled Verizon updater? Or froze it? The other day I did something that had columns of 3 pt text cascading on my screens until I used Samsung Kies to back me up flash the stock rom again. Root was retained. This was a worthwhile exercise as I had gotten carried away downloading android utilities.

Do you have the link?
OK so I found the link, followed every step I could which took a couple hours of research to get everything together. ...I flashed the jasmine rom, everything seemed to work fine until the last file in which Odin was successful, then I get a black screen that doesn't go away with any other means than a battery pull. Luckily I used the new 3.75 so I was able to do my rom under a different slot than stock...but maybe that's also the problem? So I'm back with a wiped phone and no custom rom which is irritating

Do you know where I can get the link for the JasmineROM 1.7.2 because 8 flashed 2.0 and it is devouring my battery.
I have finally rooted my phone (after many failed attempts). I was going to load Cyanogen's rom onto my phone so I searched its compatibility. I came across a forum (that I cannot find anymore) saying that with the UCUFNC1 build the installer will brick the phone. Has anyone witnessed this? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: I found the forum. It's actually on CyanogenMod's website. but now that I reread it it sounds like there is another option to install Cyanogen and the warning is saying to use a different method. I still cannot find the right method though.
Thanks
You can't install cm if you're on nc1, or anything higher than mdl for that matter. You need to use safestrap and can only flash touch wiz based roms or a few Google edition roms.

I tried to root my Samsung Galaxy S4 today using towelroot but it never worked. It said my device was not supported **I spent the last hour - hour and a half looking on YouTube to find a tutorial on how to root my S4. All I found was tutorials for phones running 4.2.2 but I'm running 4.4.2. Are there any simple ways to root a Samsung Galaxy S4 running 4.4.2? By the way, I don't know if this will help but my model number is SGH-I337M.

First of all Questions go in the Q&A section not the general section of the forum. I'm sure a mod will be moving this.
Second doing a quick Google search of 'root i337m 4.4.2' gives you the following website as the top result which should be what your looking for...

That guide says "This guide will work with the*VLUFNC1 Android 4.4.2 KitKat stock ROM" but when I go to the about device section in my settings it say VLUFNI2 not VLUFNC1. Will it still work?

I actually have the same model as you, followed that same guide and it worked. I'm rooted.
Good luck with the Root!
