Search. This topic has been discussed ad nauseam.
The topic was researched before posting. The only advice I found for an unrooted decice was to uncheck notifications under app info. Everything is grayed out in my app info box.

You need to be rooted to block the update, or never put in your SIM and turn off wifi.
Thanks for the links. You were correct in this topic already being discussed in much detail. Appears I beat a dead horse by creating this thread. Hoping the update doesn't install before I can root on friday.

Do you root the g2 first, then install twrp or cwm? Or do you twrp or cwm first, then root?

Actually, I'm sorry, I just saw a recovery thread that said no root required my bad...I would assume you CAN root before. But just read instructions in the thread

might want to look thru the root threads. It will tell you everything you need to root.

Also, where did you find this new SS?

how do I manually install them?
and on the Verizon forum
Insert them into System/lib/modules then reboot
I don't suggest using something for another device on the AT&T S4. Especially when it is still in beta.

So guys. I've got a Samsung Galaxy S4 i337 running mk2 4.3 firmware. Is it possible to downgrade my firmware to run miui or cyanogenmod seeing as they don't work on mk2?
If so links/instructions please?
Thanks!

No.

No reasoning or anything just no?

No with every upgrade it triggers something in the phone that stops you from downgrading

Not being rude but you have a few threads going asking some day one and two questions.
Read the sticky threads and the Q&A threads before you hose your phone.
Your questions have been asked and answered several times, you just need to read up and learn what you can and can't do with your current firmware. Good luck.
I was looking at this article, and saw that the method works for the s4 at&t version: http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...-wont-get-to-see-how-for-a-while-here-is-why/. When released, will this work with our phone then?
It was already released this post has been almost a year ago. They already fixed this exploit.

What about this: http://www.androidauthority.com/uno...date-breaks-supersu-app-fix-available-333586/. Although it doesn't look like it would be for our AT&T model.

More information is needed. What firmware was it on? If you have an mdk for instance you don't wanna flash a knox build, etc. Give as much info as possible.

Would not let me edit it so I replied. Mdk is a Verizon build. But the point is the same. Without more info you might get bad info.
