I just tried to flash a couple AOSP roms (CM & Pac) for the first time since updating to MF9, and the roms won't flash. I get an "assert failed" error and some verbiage about the build.prop not showing jfltespr, which is not the case (I'm using TWRP, by the way). I'm assuming that this has something to do with the new MF9 bootloader, correct? Is there any way around this without going back to MDL? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I get a status 7 error in CWM when trying to update.
I updated to TWRP 2.6 and it works fine now.

See picture. Currently still on stock rom rooted, ktoonsez kernel, and still on mdc.
What will be the steps to update to mf9? Can I just flash the firmware and call it a day or are there extra steps?

Check out this link to update your modem. I just got done updating mine and it went super smooth. After your modem if updated to mf9, go and flash any mf9 based rom.

So you're saying that if I flash that file by noobnl to my phone using Odin, once that's done I can just flash ANY custom rooted MF9 rom using TWRP and I'm set?

Perfecto.. so now when I flash the rom. It says no data wipe. Meaning all my apps and personal settings are still there? Also will it affect the kernel?

I would back up your data to be safe and it's always good to do a clean flash with a new rom. Most roms come with a kernel.... FYI, if your WiFi does not work after flashing a Rom, just flash another kernel. Most times that fixes it.

So I just flashed the mf9 rom and it went smooth except for I lost ktweaker app to adjust ktoonsez kernel. Running choppy and such. Going to flash his newest updated kernel. Im still on an older version.

I am rooted on a mdk build. I was previously rooted and had twrp custom recovery. Ran bunch of roms then kinda got tired of messing around and always having to do a full wipe in order to try different roms so I uprooted and went back to stock completely.
It hasn't been a week and I already decided to go back to root and throw on a different rom. I rooted again, but am having a lot of trouble installing twrp and clockwork recoveries.
When I try goomanager I come to the screen to install the recovery and I get a "webpage not available" every time. When I try to do it manually I get a fail message. I just don't understand what I'm doing wrong.
Through clockwork, I install the recovery, and it tells me that it was installed successfully. I try to access it and I get the Verizon error message saying that unauthorized software was found and to shut the phone off and bring it to nearest vzw, Yea Ok!
So I'm lost at this point, anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

Best way out of this.
Install CyanogenMod Installer on your desktop and plug your phone in. It will install cwm and custom rooted phone. As simple as that.
I did the same as you and this I found really easy and fast

Don't use goomamager. Try this. Sorry looked through your first post again.
Download a cwm recovery, go to recovery and flash it through there. If that doesn't work then see if you can find a 'flashable in Odin' ROM that confess with CWM that comes with it. Try that. That will definitely work.
Sent from my GT-I9505G using Tapatalk
I would have done that but when I try and get in the stock recovery, I get the Verizon error messaging saying unsupported software. I can't get into stock recovery at all.

Odin the stock firmware and start all over. Root, then use rom manager or goo manager to put in the custom recovery. Then get rid of the manager.
hey guys... im on 4.3 MK2 rooted, can i install a 4.2.2 rom stock or custom ?? with 4.2.2 modem and bootloader.
thanks.
If you updated by keeping the MF9 bootloader you can go back to stock. If you took the OTA however, you can only downgrade to 4.2 with a custom ROM.

but i can downgrade to 4.2 (100% 4.2) using a custom rom?? or i will be on 4.2 but with the same new bootloader?
what custom rom would work in my case? if you can give me a link to one.. there are so many here.
If you're on the MJA or MK2 bootloader, you're stuck with it.
And why would you want to go back to 4.2? Any ROM would work, but seems kind of pointless.

i downgraded the modem to mdc and did the unlock process. it worked, i can make and receive calls but when the phone is going to 3g i get a error message "LTE esm 29 emm-x cannot establish wireless data connection" nobody else had that issue.. i dont know if hte fact that my phone is not activated on spring is relevant.. it shouldn't be, because im using the phone outside the US.
i dont know what to do to make this thing work.. i have flashed from mdc to mk2 or mja like 5 times and i always get the same message.

Go to Philz thread for your phone.. In the FAQ he tells us how to get past that. It has to do with the updater script and alls you have to do is uncheck the option in recovery that says something like... Use old updater script... Something to that effect. Again read his FAQ and you'll see what I'm talking about.
I had the same thing happening with my phone just a few days ago and that fixes it.

Go HERE and search the thread for lockscreen. You'll find many posts concerning this issue. There is no 100% fix yet. Works fine for some and not for others.

That's what I'm guessing he did. Someone said that if you flash with cwm not Philz or Twrp that it works.

Well that makes absolutely no sense. You took the OTA then rooted and flashed the NAE modem??? If you took the OTA why would you have to flash the NAE modem. Something is fishy here. Are you on the NAE upgrade or are you a piece meal install with mismatched bootloader, modem, and software. If you are on stock NAE then the lock screen should work as mine works with all options. If you are on a custom rom, that is where the problem is. Post a screenshot of your about phone info page or list the specifics of what you have so we can further help you.
Yea i took the Ota everything was nae but my baseband then I flashed the nea modem is

You might be screwed until the stock tar comes out. If your baseband hadn't changed with the ota, then the update didn't complete. You may still be on the mk2 bootloader. There is suppose to be an app that can tell you what bootloader your on, but I don't know what it is called. You can try to Odin the mk2 tar file. If it completes your golden and then can redo the update. If it fails then you have the NAE bootloader. you can try installing a custom kernel to get wifi back, or see if you can find a copy of the stock NAE kernel.
