[Q] Need help with Updates and Rom

I've moved this thread to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52874692&postcount=12328
so it can be deleted...
---------------------------
Hello,
In November 2013, I installed Sacs Custom Rom 4.3 for the S4 Sprint Model SPH-L720. Since then, I have been getting updates from Samsung every 2 weeks. When I install the update, the root always needs to be repaired. After installing the update, I always have to reinstall my backup account.
My questions are:
1)What is the latest version for this particular version of the rom?
2) Is it typical to get so many updates?
3) How would I fix root rather than repairing it each time I install an update?
4) How can I permanently have the backup account stay on the device?
Thanks very much for reading

Why you don't ask in the correct thread of the creator of this custom ROM if all your questions are referred to this one? :highfive:

Try checking if there is a new version in Settings->General->About Device->Software Update.If you don't get an update to download then go to Sammobile, make an account, look at the firmware section and chose a firmware and download it.After doing all this flash the firmware package with Odin.Also this is the wrong section, you should have posted in the Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Only question is where to get the firmware 4.1.2?
androidrouen said:
Hi just to say : i readed on xda (don't know where) you can downgrade bootloader : install via odin a 4.1 official rom without bootloader, update via OTA to 4.2, so you got 4.2 bootloader (OTA can change the bootloader)

Downgrade and dont care about warranty
Guys I want to download from official 4.4.2 to 4.3 or 4.2.2 I don't care about warranty should I just root>recovery>custom 4.3/4.2.2 Rom and that's it ?
EDIT: figured out that this was it. Flashed a custom 4.3 ROM and it worked!
Downgrading Galaxy S4
Has anyone figured out or is it even possible to downgrade a galaxy s4 M919 from Kitkat 4.4.4 to 4.2.2 or something else? I have been looking all over for info and cannot find anything. I am totally new to this as well and may be missing something so any help at all would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
When I downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.3 I have no sound

Stock 4.4 rom

Hi Guys,
I tried searching but couldnt see it, is there a stock 4.4 available for Note 3 N9005?
THanks!
First, if u mean stock 4.4.4 then u have just made your first mistake, cuz the latest Samsung stock firmware is 4.4.2.
Second, if u mean stock 4.4.2 then this will be your second mistake cuz you will find those things in android development section not here.
Last, your biggest mistake is to be here in original development section so go to the Q&A section and don't do it again.
Good luck

[Q] Downgrade from lollipop to kitkat?

Hi everyone, i have got Galaxy S5 G900-F and i upgraded it to Lollipop 5.0 official. now i want to get it back to the kitkat version, please guide me on whether i can do this or not. if yes, than please provide the detailed procedure of doing it, thanks.
A quick search will find multiple threads on how to do it
This isn't me being funny, but it gets a bit tedious writing out the same instructions over and over because people don't search first
I wrote out those instructions yesterday in a thread in this exact forum, which is still active on page one of the forum
