As the title suggests, is it safe to upgrade my rooted S4 from CM10, to say CM11 AND upgrade the baseband and bootloader and all other firmware to NAE (or whatever the latest is)?
Edit: In short I am trying to get off of MJA because of the deep sleep issue that drains my battery.
If you want TW interface upgrade to the mk2 4.3 jelly bean or to nae 4.4 kitkat.

And if I don't want the TW interface? I plan on upgrading to CM11 or another AOSP ROM, but want to get off of MJA too.

Than just update your modem and flash cm11?

So upgrading the modem will resolve the deep sleep issue? I was before it wouldn't.

Excuse the noob question, but will i Need to install a TW ROM that has that baked in? Or is there a place to get the bootloader? I see a Spring S4 firmware thread, but no bootloader for MK2 or NAE.
Thanks in advance.
You will have to odin the NAE tar file, then reroot your phone, install custom recovery, and then install cm11 or whatever rom you want. This will bring your phone up to the latest firmware and will hopefully solve your deep sleep issue.
Contact this guy and just flash the modem and bootloader via Odin. The download links containing the bootloader too are not on the page but it mentions that he will provide you with them if requested.

And yes, then you can just go ahead and flash CM11. It's what I'm running on mine. Works very well, no complaints.

Sacs rom was the one time I had problems,, I ended up getting corrupted partitions and had to Odin back,, after the initial fail I was able to go back to a nand but everything was jacked,, something dosent play nicely with twrp and v8, it was mentioned in the thread somewhere I remember reading about it,,, let me go find it I'll be back

If you are still having radio issues you could always just Odin the mf9 modem or if you are wanting to come to MJA Unknownforce has the modem tar
One more thing when you had no radio did you happen to look at about device and see what you had under software and baseband?

Well that's most likely your problem, if you want sacs rom and you are going to stay on 4.2 then flash V8, it is an awesome rom with everything working, very much a DD, HERE IS THE LINK
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2359590
The rom you flashed is with MJA not mf9, even though it might be possible to upgrade modem through sacs rom it's more than likely to leave you with some bugs, if you decide to try V8 (I highly recommend) let me know how it goes :sly::sly::thumbup:

Just flashing to MJA might not work, you will most likely have to use Odin, flash the MJA tar, only if you are wanting to upgrade (^_-)

so i flashed it today mja but my phone got stucked on boot logo samsung so i ve tried to reflash it few times and no luck so i had to flash mf9 back!!!! any ideas?
hey guys... im on 4.3 MK2 rooted, can i install a 4.2.2 rom stock or custom ?? with 4.2.2 modem and bootloader.
thanks.
If you updated by keeping the MF9 bootloader you can go back to stock. If you took the OTA however, you can only downgrade to 4.2 with a custom ROM.

but i can downgrade to 4.2 (100% 4.2) using a custom rom?? or i will be on 4.2 but with the same new bootloader?
what custom rom would work in my case? if you can give me a link to one.. there are so many here.
If you're on the MJA or MK2 bootloader, you're stuck with it.
And why would you want to go back to 4.2? Any ROM would work, but seems kind of pointless.

i downgraded the modem to mdc and did the unlock process. it worked, i can make and receive calls but when the phone is going to 3g i get a error message "LTE esm 29 emm-x cannot establish wireless data connection" nobody else had that issue.. i dont know if hte fact that my phone is not activated on spring is relevant.. it shouldn't be, because im using the phone outside the US.
i dont know what to do to make this thing work.. i have flashed from mdc to mk2 or mja like 5 times and i always get the same message.
I wanted to know how do i go back to the sprint stock rom after i flashed a 4.4.2 Rom?
Are you saying that you updated to NAE, rooted, and now trying to unroot? If so I don't know of any way to do it since there is no tar for NAE yet.

Im not sure what NAE is but the rom I have is Octo-Kat from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2493128 any info is greatly appreicated.
NAE is the new 4.4.2 TOUCHWIZ update that just came out for the phone. That's what I thought you meant. To go back to stock, if you mean stock unroofed. It would depend on what version of touchwiz you were on before. If you were on 4.2 then Odin a 4.2 tar. If you were on 4.3 with Knox then Odin MK2 kernel.

Be patient. They'll be coming out soon. If you're in a rush, you can try out the NAE 4.4.2 ROM by Rydal in the General section and flash Unknownforce's NAE modem.

If I sound like a jerk then sorry ahead of time. This is not just to you but anyone toying with checking this out. There are many people asking questions that clearly show a lack of understanding regarding this update and what you might end up with if it goes bad. If you are currently on a custom Rom, it is beyond my imagination why you would want to go to a stock Rom that you might not be able to get back from. This forum is already piling up a few users that tried going back to mk2 and are now probably stuck with a coaster till someone releases a full release Odin install. Several very solid devs are quickly putting together something. I would be willing to bet within a week we have a couple projects to choose from.

Through Odin just flash the full mk2 update. Make sure you wipe data or things will be broken, I had to do it twice before everything worked right. This will also give you sock recovery. From that you can just re root the same way you did the first time and then reload a nandroid back up if you have one from your previous rooted room.
Hope this helps you

I have the same problem with NAE build number, but MK2 baseband and software (also MDF security software version if that matters). Did you ever figure out how to solve this? If so how?
For those with mixed nae and mk2. First flash the nae modem thru odin then flash a nae rom. As for now those people who decided not to go full stock to take nae and are stuck this is the only work around for this problem. Until we get a nae tar yall will be stuck for it for another week or so.

Last time I checked, aosp Roms don't work with the i337 because of the locked boot loader. And last time I checked we don't have a root method (this could have very well changed, I was off for a month or two) for NB1 4.4. If you were to do a work around you may be able to get black box working but I'm not sure.

You can get BlackBox 3.0 to work.
Follow Deadly Venom KitKat Magic Tool (DVKMT) thread to partial downgrade to MK2. Root using saferoot. Follow DVKMT to install BlackBox3.0. More in All things AT&T MK2 and NB1
Note: With BB3.0, gmail and camera will FC. To solve this, uninstall them using titanium backup and install the latest from play store.
There are other ROMs that have AOSP options.
1. FoxHound v4.6.1
2. GoldenEye v29 with Domination v2.1 theme
3. ChaosRom v2.5.2
