So, I am still running MF9. I am rooted, and sporting a custom rom, albeit a fairly old one: Sacs_Custom 4.X with the included kernal. I want to flash a newer rom, especially since new bugs are starting to crop up. I know that newer ones are on MJA (right?) and are based on 4.3 or 4.4. So, assuming I have selected my Rom, can I simply factory reset and then flash the new rom? Or do I need to take factory updates after reset, then re-root the device to flash these newer roms?
Go get the MK2 modem without the bootloader from development section. Odin it and flash whatever ROM your heart desires

This seems very helpful, and I will tackle it as soon as my battery recharges. The one thing I want to be sure about first...I of course have TWRP recovery installed already. Flashing Philz without removing it (I assume Philz would overwrite it?) is fine, right?

Yup, here is the link to the newest Philz
http://d-h.st/fGN
You can flash Philz right through TWRP and vise versa. Flash, wipe cache and dalvik if you want. Reboot to recovery and it'll change.

So I'm in the same boat, I'm running triforce mf9.
If I'm understanding this right I should;
-flash philz(which I can do from twrp?)
-Then I can flash triforce's new mja?
That seems a little too easy with how complex http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277480 seems.

It depends on if you want to keep mf9 as your bootloader and knox out of your hardware. If you want a little more flexibility in the long run, use the guide you linked to. If you don't care about your bootloader then follow the steps in this thread

I used odin to flash unknownforce's mk2 firmware. And flashed the TriforceV5 with the latest TWRP no problem. Made backups, switched between roms. Super easy.

I flashed philz recovery, and was going to odin the mk2 firmware, then flash triforceV5. Just want to double check before I do this.

I open mybackuppro, it says I'm rooted, and asks if I want to ask for super user permission. But SuperSU never pops up, and I don't see it in the app drawer.
Thoughts, ideas?

You need to read before doing more with recovery and ROMs. You can't use CWM on MK2, only safestrap. Loki doesn't work on MK2 either and safestrap doesn't flash kernels. You probably had a bad download that didn't flash right and your system probably got wiped if it's not going past the splash screen. Go flash the MK2 TAR files, they're in the General section.

Please provide more information.
- What bootloader do you have? Did you ever take NB1 OTA?
- What version of Graviton are you flashing?
- What version of safestrap do you have?
- If you are flashing kitkat version, are you following the Deadly Venom Tool?
The more information you provide, the easier it will be to assist.

Did you wipe data anywhere in there? If not, do that. If you did, Gravitron does seem to take longer to boot first time than other ROMs so give it time.

There is a guide by didact74 in the VZW section, but I don't think that has been updated for KitKat. There are Xposed modules that do the same thing.

I tried to figure this out and I'm lost. I've not been keeping up with development on this phone for a while. I'm currently on stock rooted MDL, stock recovery. I'm looking to move to rooted current stock rom. How do I go about this. As simple as just putting a new recovery on and flashing the new one? Or do I need to be careful of anything?
Feels weird to be out of touch with how everything works now.

You need to put a custom recovery on. Then flash the ROM in the recovery. Since you're rooted you could use goo manager to put twrp on

Glad you got it--you can now flash custom recoveries from recovery. I like twrp 2.5.0.2
Don't try goomanager anymore--not needed
There are a couple files to delete so you don't get auto updated. Some have Update in name and one has FOTA. I don't have them in front of me atm
Get a nandroid asap and put copy on pc too
Plus backup efs
Just one last check before I try and mess with things tonight. Since I'm on MDL still, to install a new current ROM (like this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2280556), all I need to do is:
- install a custom recovery (TWRP 2.5.0.2 looks like the most recent)
- backup
- full wipe
- flash new ROM
I shouldn't have to mess with any of the safestrap stuff correct?
Just trying to be cautious.

No SafeStrap. Backup should include System. Make sure to read OP and last few pages of thread for any new info. Make sure ROM doesn't need loki-doki. Most in att forum don't. What recovery are you on now?

How did everything go? Im on MDL rooted custom rom and really want to get back to stock rooted. I know I dont need to do the same process as you but I was curious how things went.
Hi All,
Appreciate the guides and community here. Looking for a little help on my ATT S4 KitKat 4.4.2. It's rooted via Towelroot.
I want to run a custom rom that isn't slow. I have Odin, proper Samsung USB drivers.
1) Can CNW be used on my phone to boot to recovery? If not, what are the alternatives and how do I use them (is there a guide you can share)?
2) Do I have NC1 on my phone, what the heck is NC2, NC1-what does this mean, is it relevant?
Thanks all
-Christian
If you have updated your phone to the att 4.4.2 firmware then you should be on NC1 which means you cannot put cwm or any CM rom. The only recovery you can use is safestrap. After that you can only flash rooms the specifically say safestrap compatible and you must flash the att_nc1 module after flashing rom for WiFi to work. Read the safestrap thread under the development section before doing anything.

Thanks. I have nb1. No luck getting safe strap to take. Install completes but does not recognize status as installed or allow boot to recovery.
I have rooted, supersu, busybox, and no luck with safestrap. Any ideas.
Upon booting I notice an icon that looks like a unlocked lock beneath the samsung logo. Touching it does nothing...
Thanks for getting back to me

I don't use safestrap. So not sure. Did you wipe all including system. And flash to correct slot. Stock slot I believe. Use correct safestrap. Also need sellinux, spelling? The lock is suppose to be there if rooted. Read the last 20 pages of the hash code safestrap thread plus the op. And same on All Things ATT/MK2 in General. May give some ideas. ☺

Aha! Safestrap running and custom ROM installed. Is there an index comparing all Safestrap/Touchwiz based roms? Runnign SHO right now and it's pretty bland (resolution looks low too).
I'm looking for something like a stock nexus experience with WiFi tethering.
thanks for the help mates

Not sure on index. Best though to try them yourself as they don't always work the same on different phones.

Iam all for custom ROMS. I made one for the Tab3. If all you want is the stock Nexus experience, you could just download the Google Now Launcher which is Google release the AOSP launcher. Then if you want the individual AOSP apps, you can do a search here or a google search, and you will find XDA threads that provide the apps with installation instructions.
