First of all, dont mix things:
- If you use android 4.3:
1. Its downgrade to android 4.2.2
2. Its update to android 4.4.2
What is your option? :highfive:
* EDIT: I recommend u dont update ur phone if it is going ok. Many people "hate" android 4.4.2 (reboots, drain battery, no wifi, problems with the USB charger).

Its better than the 4.3 like 100 times

What are you talking
4.4.2 is much better than the old firmwares
Those who complain are the same as in 4.2.2 and 4.3 updates
there will always be unhappy people
You may have problems such as flash any junk
Why I have no problem with the phone

Be respectful with your words. Its only one opinion more. He cant do what he want with his phone. I was happy with android 4.2.2, 4.3 and Im with 4.4.2. I never had problems coz I know solve them till now. Why u think they are preparing android 4.4.3?

There is no unusual battery drain in 4.4.2 if not factory reseted do it, it will fix your problem, u can't go back to 4.3 now.
If you do a google search you will see there are many many users affected by the battery drain bug. Im yet to find a fix.

[Q] How do I upgrade from 4.2.2 to 4.3 ?

Hi there,
I need to upgrade my S4 to android 4.3 because I want to use Polar H7 bluetooth heart rate sensor.
I'm happy with 4.2.2 and would have never chagned if not for this sensor. It works only with 4.3 or better.
My question is. Can I upgrade to any 4.3 rom without doing the full wipe (have many apps and backing them up will take ages)
Can I upgrade to any 4.3 and not lose Glonass system which I heard may get lost.
Thanks in advance.

1. Glonass problems are related with early (before NE5) KitKat 4.4.2 ROMs, not with 4.3 ones, so you shall be safe;
2. Although there are some ROMs which should not require full wipe, it is healthier. I made this many times, and after update I frequently had to wipe phone anyway because of many glitches in apps appearing after new system update.
3. you shall try with Odin, it is less likely that you will be forced to wipe
4. New "generation" of sys elimnates as well many of security holes, so I'd recommend you to consider update to 4.42

Upgrading from Custom to Stock

Hello everyone.
I've just installed Sweet ROM V4 MJ7 and I wanna update to Stock 4.4
So its rooted and CWM is installed.
Here's my question...
Should I just put 4.4 stock to Odin and install or should I do sth else?
I know, this question could be so frustrating for someone but it's my first NOTE and i dont wanna mess it.
Also, is it worth to update from 4.3 to 4.4.2 (N9005XXUGNG1)
Im afraid of this knox 2.0
Thanks for help.
Yes..it is the way it should be using odin to install stock firmware. This is gonna be fine bcoz u are going to 4.4.2 unless you are downgrading which is too dangerous.
Just tell me my friend now if it is worth to upgrade to 4.4.2?
For my personal prefence, I like to be up to date all the time. So I would stay with latest update. But some people prefer to stay with 4.3 bcoz of better battery life or other wifi issues. But all bugs have been fixed in these days. So I guess the main reason to stay with 4.3 is just bcoz of battery life. I cant tell exactly how much difference of battery since I just upgraded to 4.4.2 as soon as I got this. So I cant notice 4.3 that much in less than a day. ?? go for it. What is bothering you! You are holding Note 3 and life isnt worth if u don't stay up to date.

Quick Q: Should I update my phone to Lollipop?

Hello,
like the topic name says, should I update my phone to Lollipop?
I've read on older topics there are a lot of issues with stock 5.0.1, like lower battery life, lags and other stuff.
There have probably been a few OTA updates that might have fixed those issues?
What are you're guys experience so far with stock 5.0.1?
I'm still on 4.4.2 btw, so far it works great.
If you have i9505. Is recommend updating and flashing @Albe95 S6 Port which is the best current rom for S4

What about stock 5.0.1, yours and other peoples experience?
I just got the phone, so I'd like to keep it stock for now.
No and never update anything your phone in any way!
Update = Problems. Lollipop already proved that.
Hope you have not yet updated !
I haven't updated yet.
So I guess I should stay on 4.4.2 then.
Stay where you are. If you want lollipop go custom or gpe.
I too is still on 4.4.2, might try a custom lollipop

Stay where you are ,Lollipop has battery drain!!!
Thanks for all your input on this guys, I really appreciate it.
Hopefully Samsung will fix it through future updates.

Don't count on Samsung fixing anything in a timely fashion. At this point it's highly unlikely the S4 will ever see Android 5.1.1, especially if Samsung can't even be bothered to update the Google Play Edition S4 to 5.1.1 despite every other GPE phone already receiving it.
If you want a stock-ish custom Android 5.x ROM for your S4, there are at least three decent ones in the I9505 Development section: Imperium ROM, Lollirom, and Albe95's S6 port. Currently I'm using the S6 port as it's the only one of the three that is running Android 5.1.1.
BUMP'ing my old thread a month later because I don't need to create a new one.
Same question, there probably have been a lot of OTA updates after the first 5.0.1 came out on the S4,
is it worth now updating to 5.0.1?
Have the battery issues/lags/whatever problems been fixed?
I'm still on 4.4.2 and I'm tempted to update but I don't wanna get any problems.
The looks and feel of 5.0.1 are nothing if in expense of performance/battery.
Thank you for your time.

No, don't do it. I tried recently. Still crappy (clean install). So I'm back and will stay on KK for this devise. Faster, more reliable and fewer bugs.
DON'T, as others said stay at kitkat or older ,but if need lollipop so badly one of the following (both requires updating to lollipop)=
1.CyanogenMod or cm based ROMs(for touchwiz haters,half stable,recommended=CyanogenMod itself)
2.touchwiz based roms(for touchwiz fans or the people who are trying to be original, sometimes fully stable, sometimes half stable,recommended=able's s6 port or able's lollirom)

Sorry for my language
Yes. Stop trying to downgrade to Android 4.2.2. Especially if you've upgraded to stock 5.0.1 at any point in the past.

Yes i know that , but i haven't find any xperia rom for i9505 based on TW unless this one on TW 4.2 JELLYbean
I can't help you there. But if you want an up-to-date Xperia ROM you're going to have to build it. You clearly cannot use the one you found.
