If your friend is on Sprint then this is what you want to flash, it's stock MK2

No not possible unless you break your phone and they give you a refurb one that luckily has MDL. Also questions go in the Q&A section not general.

I think he might be saying that because hes on sprint and not used to a sim card. Probably doesn't realize he needs it in to get 4g or to vanquish those pesky pop ups.
Took me a little while to grasp the concept of the sim card being the 4g card. I'm on sprint.

Got The Update. Won't IUnstall Due to Custom recovery

New update this morning and of course it won't install with TWRP recovery onboard.
For the life of me I can't find a method that actually gets me stock tar files to unroot and return to custom recovery.
Have all the links turned to nothing but advertising?
Hey before you install a custom recovery can you do the community a favor and pull the update zip from your phone? Then upload it to some hosting site that way others like myself can update manually.

And the tar MK2 file in dev section works fine. I just unroofed yesterday to get ready for the new update.

Um yea, that's great. And it's possible.
HOWEVER as @daniel4653 mentioned " would you do the community a favor and pull the update zip from your phone?".
If you install before doing that you'll lose that ability.
But of course if you just want help but don't want to contribute, well I guess that's okay. Just remember XDA is all about community.
Can you please post the file name of the update OTA file.
I didn't find it in the threads but ........... did someone pull the OTA "update.zip" from the phone? I would love to do this manually to the wife's S4 .......

SamMobile.com has trustworthy .tar files. That is the only place I would get it from.

I have a sgs4 sph-L720 unlocked nae stock rom 4.4.2 and using it with tmobile. I've heard from people who have flashed this rom tmobile phone and that works great. I can flash a rom in my tmobile sph-L720? if so I can explain the procedure
You just said you know you can flash a T-Mobile ROM on Sprint. And that you know how the procedure goes.

Since you are not on sprint right now idk how you would get data to work. When on sprint and flash a T-Mobile ROM, to get data to work, you must backup and restore APNs.

tmobile rom that I flash my sph-L720 nae running 4.4.2?
