I'm on 4.4.2

Download and install Towelroot, run it. Download supersu, busybox, and safestrap. Install. For roms, follow devs instructions to install their roms. Do not skip a step.

I just need to install that on my phone, or computer?...I guess I thought I was going to have to do work with drivers and some other things, and then link the phone up o the computer and all that other stuff...
Anyways thank you very much for your quick help so far!

I think you only need a pc to Odin anything to install modded roms. Nc4 is roots with towelroot, then you just install supersu, busybox, and safestrap and run them.

ok do you get those from the playstore, or from the internet on the phone. When I typed in towelroot on google play, I got DriveDroid (paid), Soft buttons, Root checker and unroot PRO as results.

Are you downloading to a pc? If so which browser are you using? As far as I know to download a stock rom, go to sammobile.com . It's a pain in the butt to log in and everything but once it works, you can download the stock rom from them and flash it via odin. I just did that with my note 10.1 to return it to stock.

Crash At startup

I have a weird problem with my S5 900f running Lollipop BTU. Rooted with chainfire. Issue is that after rooting when i restart my phone it sometimes says "android is updating and then everythig starts crashing....system is not responding etc etc" i have disabled sytem updates aswell . First i thought it was cuz of Twrp and i flashed stock recovery with flashify but still happened today.........it happens randomly while restarting my phone and then if it gets stuck i have to go to recovery and hit "clear cache and clear update from cache" to be able to boot.....i have also tried different firmwares any clue why this might be happening?

You have to flash stock firmware with odin but first you have to full wipe with twrp recovery end after flash firmware because your root is filed end after you may try to root again

So confused with safestrap, flashfire, and the million zips floating around!

HI all,
I'm used to just sticking a couple of zips in Odin and calling it a day, but it looks like in the past couple of years Flashfire / Safestrap have become the go-to method for flashing our phones.
I am interested in flashing this Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/development/bsfreelollipop5-0rombpb1based-t3331541 Unfortunately there aren't any clear instructions on how to do so with Flashfire for someone who hasn't done that before. My S5 is currently running 4.4.4 / NK2 and is rooted.
I tried to correlate other Flashfire instructions threads with this ROM but nothing has been clear enough for me. The Play store beta link for flashfire just gives a 404.
Can someone be kind enough to please provide the proper link to get the right version of Flashfire, and some clear instructions on how to flash this ROM with it?
Thank you so much!

You have to go back to lollipop then root and then install 6.0 Marshmallow.

First download vzw lollipop PB1 stock rom.
You can search in xda for download link
Is this method still working if so my cid is 15
6.0.1 can be rooted and if you are going to odin flash lollipop why? Flash twrp in odin mode then flash supersu zip through twrp. Boom rooted then can flash any rom you want. Easy I've rooted every phone this way. Simple

Are you continuing to check Samsung Members for the official update? I expect the 1st update possibly this week or next and if it's like Pie beta, it may become available to others not running the initial version.

Add androidsage. Com into the link I posted .. that's the directions. You should definitely learn to use Odin and find firmware before doing this. More important to know how to dig yourself out when you inevitably soft brick.
Is wifi calling still available after updating to the new one ui?
You need SI4. The zip has been posted here. It says TMobile but it flashes att if you have an att SIM card. Just download it, put it onto an external SD card, reboot in recovery and apply update from SD card.
Edit: I have it in my GDrive. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1K0Iy-5zYB8v8vKNrVo1clFaIJbZRvkrK/view?usp=drivesdk
