I am already rooted on the 4.4.2 KK ROM. During this process, I installed the KK bootloader as advised. Can I install the Hyperdrive ROM from here w\Safestrap or do I need to Odin\flash stock back down to ICS which Hyperdrive is based on?
Thanks much!

You would have to Odin back to 4.3 Jellybean to run Hyperdrive. Although sbreen said he will be updating the build to 4.4.2 shortly. So if your on the leaked rooted kitkat build just hang tight a bit longer.

Hi, guys
I want to flash danvdh google edition 4.4.2 ROM on my ATT g4 (MF3) with safe strap.
After I create rom-slot1, wipe all the data and install from sd card with the rom zip file I put there already, looks like it start flash, but got "success" in less than 1 min. I flash loki-doki after that (because I was told it's necessary for my phone). Then I reboot, adter safe sreap screen, click continue, black screen with some viabration. nothing happened.
Actually I check the md5 of the rom I download, it's correct. not sure why flash got a "success" in 1 min, suppose should be long.
Anyone can give some suggestion? REally appreciate it.
You need to do more reading. Safestrap only works with touchwiz ROMs, and only other 4.2.2 ROMs since you're on MF3.

Thanks for the reply. But I was told I should use safe strap on another my post when I asked how to flash "danvdh google edition 4.4.2 ROM" with MF3.
Do you mean MF3 can not be flashed to kitkat now?
Sorry for those questions, I searched and found a post with same question but no people answer.
Thanks ain advance!

As i said, only Touchwiz and other 4.2.2 if you're on MF3. So no kitkat now.

There is the 4.4 leak, but no root of Safestrap for it yet. You'll have to wait for either of those.

If you want to flash a 4.4 ROM you could update to 4.3 then root and install safestrap. Safestrap still doesn't work with ROMs that aren't Touchwiz based. If you need the 4.3 MK2 tar, you can download it here http://www.mediafire.com/download/ktkoogwz562p64k/2400258.zip

Hey guys was hoping to get a little help. I am currently running foxhound 4.1 on my S4. The baseband version is I9505XXUFNA5. Its OS 4.4.2. In the process of flashing this rom according to the instructions on the dev thread said i had to flash a different bootloader and modem before flashing the rom. This process worked fine and i have been running without issue. Work has now decided that they want everyone on Android 4.3 so we can use apps they made to make our job easier so i need to go back to 4.3. I attempted this last night and when i try to flash a 4.3 rom via cwm it returns an error saying that the bootloader is the incorrect one and fails and i have to reinstall foxhound again to make the phone usable. Any one know how i go about getting back to 4.3 or where to get the correct bootloader and modem so i can flash them via odin and then install Androind 4.3? Any help would be very much appreciated.
Cheers Jeff
Nobody can downgrade from 4.4.2

Nope not at this stage cannot downgrade to older bootloader, sorry.
The best you can do is install a 4.3 custom rom. Try an echoe rom, version 12.1 the final bean I think should do.

Is there anything special I need to do? I was on Hyperdrive RSL 7 and upgraded successfully to BajaROM NC2/NC4 KK ROM... not happy. What do I have to do to go back to RSL 7? Any help would greatly be appreciated!

Did you take the OTA and root it or were you on 4.3 then upgraded to a rooted 4.4.2 ROM?

It's easy, just flash the retail stock MJE tar from the link below in Odin, root it with Towelroot, install SU, Busybox (install BB once you install the app), and then install SafeStrap 3.65 and flash any 4.3 ROM.

Just curious on how to update my phone to KitKat and if it's even worth it. Rooted my phone a long time ago and am still on JB 4.3. Is there improvements on KitKat? What steps would I have to take to update my rooted phone?

Once you're up and running, see how the NC2 modem works for you. If you're signal is weak, you try swapping out for the NC4 or MJE modem here:

I will not be getting the N4 anytime soon. I've been pretty content with JB 4.3 on cleanrom 1.7 but just curious if there are advantages with KitKat.

If that is true then you can upgrade to NC2 or NC4. The procedure seems straightforward.
I'm confused. What Exactly Do I have to flash? I'm downloading deodex NC2. Do I have to dl a kernel as well?

You are welcome. Hopefully it all goes smoothly.
I know you can't flash a 4.4.4 rom on a 4.4.2 device, but does it work backwards? I'd like to check out the ShoStock rom. I'm currently unrooting my phone due to me messing it up - so I am using odin to take it back to NB1. I'm wondering if I take the 4.4.4 OTA update, can I still flash Shostock's rom which is based on 4.4.2?
Thanks!

Yes you can, you just need to flash the correct module for the rom you install.
