EDIT: It's official and includes WiFi calling!
100% stock NE5 ROM/Kernel/Modem Odin flashable tar Thanks to @garwynn (there are faster mirrors within the thread just look!)
Stock rooted Deodexed/Odxed NE5 ROM Thanks to @CNexus
It's rolling out to users as we speak! If you get the OTA please grab it for us (I forget the location of it) and upload it so we can sideload it.

Hopefully this is 4.4.3??
If someone starts to receive it, please post the link to the GOTA server address here so it can be sideloaded!

NE5 will be 4.4.2 still.
Hopefully Wifi Calling?
Sounds like the next build of RDDT and/or RODT will have some wi-fil calling, should fix all these non-compatability issues you've been having Joe!

Any one try or get ota yet

I had a feeling it'd be the WiFi calling update!
If someone can pull the update file name, I believe the rest of the URL will read like this:
ttp://android.clients.google.com/packages/ota/sprint_samsung_g900p/INSERTFILENAMEHERE.zip
I couldn't even check for it. I clicked 'check now for update' and got a message saying that my OS has been modified in an unauthorized way, lol. I've never seen that before. Usually I can at least download an OTA.
Did anyone get the update yet?

I ended up odin back to stock and still got the modified error with no root. I looked in about and saw my baseband was ncb, and my software was ncd, so you might wanna check that. Also I read someplace that knox software disabled can throw the modified error also

Based on what you said I replaced the insertfilename.zip with the version id G900PVPU1ANE5 and got a 404 error. I did include the H that was missing from the address as well.

Ha ha. No, no, no. The name will be complex and have lots of random letters in it. That's why we need someone to pull the actual name they get with their OTA.

my friend updated his phone yesterday.what surprised me that his phone can't be rooted by kingroot after updating.who can tell message why?
Because you should never update before the previous exploit is verified to be working with the new update. I doubt you will see root with the new update for awhile. And there is already a 4.4.4 thread which is where this post should be.
Because he took the OTA!! Rule # 1 of root ... NEVER EVER take OTA updates!! They, more often than not, patch previous exploits that allowed the awesome developers here achieve root in the first place.

And I'm pretty sure kingo hasn't worked in some time ... TowelRoot is (was?) the latest successful root method. However, its already been reported that it's not working with this latest update. It will now be a waiting game to see when/IF it will work again

ok,I know
It's here folks, Lollipop for Verizon's iteration of the LG G Pad 8.3, the VK810 (code name "Altev"). You can start downloading and installing via Settings - System Updates - Check for Updates. I don't have the time to update today, but please tell me how it comes out for you.
Modders, rooters, and ROMans (ROMers?) out there, I'd love to hear if you keep root with OTA Survival Mode or Chuck Norris mode enabled in your super user app (SuperSU, SuperUser, etc...) or if you can find the file ( @roirraW "edor" ehT you seem to be the king of KDZs for our device) to flash via TWRP.
Thumbs up if this post was helpful and don't forget to vote on that poll.
***Reserved for bug reports, issues, and fixes***
I will try to keep this up to date as they come in.
I used the kdz in normal mode and lost root.
I was waiting for someone else to make a centralized thread for issues, so I wouldn't have to maintain it. ?
Under 35A_08, I can't seem to expand notifications in the pulled down notification shade. You can expand them at least on an insecure lock screen (swipe) and it seems that what you expand there are then expanded in the notification shade too. I think this survives a reboot.

Already rooted without downgrading. Check my guide in general section.
In your poll, add the option. Already running , debloated, rooted and working on recovery.
Took the OTA. Lost root. Trying to decide whether I need to root again.......
There's an official lollipop update for 8.3 VZW? Missed that
Sent from my Nexus 6
Do I need a Verizon SIM in it to pull the OTA?
I've tried both the update button in settings and the "Verizon Wireless Software Upgrade Assistant" PC client.
Tmo SIM doesn't work, VZW does
Fortunately I had an active VZW SIM out of a Galaxy Tab 2.
It asked me to download with it in, and would not let me see it with a T-Mobile SIM. Kept saying I was up to date.
Put the VZW SIM back in and it let me get it. Downloading over WiFi now, just over 600 megs.
Sure they'll gladly send you the OTA with an active VZW SIM, probably hoping you'll use your data allotment to do it...
Typical VZW antics, which is why I'll never use Verizon. MAYBE if someone else paid for it, but I'd resist even then. Worst carrier IMHO except of course their coverage is great. I carry a PagePlus $10/120 days for emergencies, camping, etc.
But I digress...

Previous releases for the VK810 had LG Backup? I'm not saying they didn't, just if they did I never noticed it. Was it (originally) in the same place it is on the G3 (Settings / Backup & Reset)? It is in fact not available there on 35A_08, but I know at some point I looked there on 24A and didn't see it either - unless I only checked after I had debloated it and I took it out by mistake or not knowing.
Was it definitely available on 24A? Curious because on the G3 once I tried it, I noticed it sure was fast and easy, and might not trump Titanium Backup for all purposes, but certainly for my most common uses.

It worked basically the same for me as the other LG devices I've seen (VS980 and V500), but with a different KDZ file of course.
1 - Download the VK810 35A KDZ file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60857185&postcount=2
2 - Follow this guide to use the LG Flash Tool 2014: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2797190
Note: To put your VK810 into download mode, power it off, then hold the volume down button while you plug it into your PC. A small rectangle will appear in the middle of the screen that says "Download Mode".
Worked like a charm for me. yesterday.

You may be right, it is that I use it on my G3s that I assumed it was on the VK810. I use it to transfer files and apps between devices, I remembered that I tried but failed to get Snapdragon Battery Guru to the VK810. Shame it does have it uses.

I thought it was a twrp flash. LG flash tool. Won't you lose root/recovery? I'd like to see a rooted twrp like they do in S5 vzw&art threads. Simple kernel swap..Voila
---------- Post added at 10:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 PM ----------
If nobody posts one soon then I will.
Definitely no LG Backup for the last 3-4 OTAs, but I haven't owned it long enough to speak for the entirety of the software history. I know that this device has been hamstrung by some of the carriers' antics by not including some basics that the flagship phones enjoy like a full feature Quick Remote, the absence of LG Backup (which just may be the best BU short of Titanium), and the exclusion of baked in goodies like Dual Window and adjustable Emersive Mode (hides the nav bar on a per-app basis). I know DW fix can be found, but not sure about the others yet.

Gotcha. Last I checked the SnapDragon Battery Guru wouldn't install from the Play Store on my G3's Lollipop, but I haven't checked lately and I don't recall if I tried just restoring it from Titanium Backup. I'll check again on the G3 and on this device in case it's changed (probably not), thanks for the reminder.

I don't think it would be good to update your phoen with it rooted but you could always try and if it messes up you have a community of developers/users here to help you!
---------- Post added at 01:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:23 PM ----------
You would also likely loose root if it does work. I'm not sure cause I don't use stock. I'm running cloudy g2 3.3 and it runs perfect and fast.
Did anyone get a notification for an update today? The version is "PB1" (LRX21T.G900VVRU2BPB1). It appears to just be a security patch. https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/galaxy-s5-update/ Assuming someone will dump it out, root it, and we'll be able to flash with FlashFire? I've pre-ordered a S7 so I don't know if I'll even try before I ditch this phone.
I'll give it a shot, assuming I can trigger the update.
---------- Post added at 06:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:01 PM ----------
Update has been downloaded. Now lets see if I can pull it.
I'm currently pulling/uploading the update.zip for @muniz_ri or @jrkruse to look at for us.
Hopefully it can be rooted using the new root method and they can make a ROM or 2 for us.

I'm just waiting on the Odin tar so you can make us a lovely version with the OD5 bootloader in it
Does anyone know if it is 5.1? I was just chatting with Samsung they said it was but I updated and it showed it was still 5.0... So did my phone not fully install it or what?
Someone confirm, this appears to update the bootloader and break our root method
EDIT: All is good
I tried multiple times to update to this ROM today, and I failed multiple times lol. I've tried enough for today. I might try again tomorrow.

Still good ol' 5.0. Change list is the same as well. Just a security update from what I gather.
just update with flashfire via http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65593555&postcount=724 using the same keeproot method? Also, I've never been able to use xposed. Do I have to have deodexed for that?

Actually, I doubt you are going to see 5.1 as Samsung is releasing 6.0 for the S5 in May.

Several weeks, maybe a month ago one of the android news sites listed the Samsung timetable for the phones that would get it. It wasn't carrier specific but rather device specific and the S5 is slated for a May release from Sammy according the article I read.
