This may be a dumb question but how do I know what my stock Rom was originally...as far as if it were NAE or not.... when I got my phone and had it flashed to Boosmobile... it was 4.4.2 on stock. ..

See picture. Currently still on stock rom rooted, ktoonsez kernel, and still on mdc.
What will be the steps to update to mf9? Can I just flash the firmware and call it a day or are there extra steps?

Check out this link to update your modem. I just got done updating mine and it went super smooth. After your modem if updated to mf9, go and flash any mf9 based rom.

So you're saying that if I flash that file by noobnl to my phone using Odin, once that's done I can just flash ANY custom rooted MF9 rom using TWRP and I'm set?

Perfecto.. so now when I flash the rom. It says no data wipe. Meaning all my apps and personal settings are still there? Also will it affect the kernel?

I would back up your data to be safe and it's always good to do a clean flash with a new rom. Most roms come with a kernel.... FYI, if your WiFi does not work after flashing a Rom, just flash another kernel. Most times that fixes it.

So I just flashed the mf9 rom and it went smooth except for I lost ktweaker app to adjust ktoonsez kernel. Running choppy and such. Going to flash his newest updated kernel. Im still on an older version.

I just upgraded my phone from the S2 running shoshock .
I want to put shoshock back on but as it looks it's not for model.
Is there a way I'm able to put shoshock v.2.0 or the other version on my phone?
If not, I do see a lot of roms but a lot of them seem to be for the MF3 build.
Can someone direct me to a good Rom and Kernal for the MDB build??
Thanks!!!

you will have to upgrade to stock mdl to take those roms
don't take the mf3 upgrade or you will be throttled on what you can run
Thank you!! I'm gonna try that!

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.

i tried eveything so i can downgrade and how he said is the only way. i been trying everything but no luck. i hope your not trying to return your phone because if u have it rooted and have "kernel not seandroid enforcing " then wait until some dev can fix that

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.

Hi mate ,If you flash a stock NA5 you can no longer downgrade to stock 4.3. but you can try to flash your 4.3 Nandroid back up via recovery. or You can atleast downgrade to any custom 4.3 roms even aosp rom as well.Have a nice day

If the official kk came out in the end of january . Yea you should be alright . But if your thinking to downgrade to 4.3 stock then its not possible. If your having any issue with the leak,just flash the kitkat rom again.

Are you rooted?
If so, what rom are you running?
This is the exact issue the UnKnownforce is trying to fix in his thread.
Go HERE and search the thread for lockscreen. You'll find many posts concerning this issue. There is no 100% fix yet. Works fine for some and not for others.

That's what I'm guessing he did. Someone said that if you flash with cwm not Philz or Twrp that it works.

Well that makes absolutely no sense. You took the OTA then rooted and flashed the NAE modem??? If you took the OTA why would you have to flash the NAE modem. Something is fishy here. Are you on the NAE upgrade or are you a piece meal install with mismatched bootloader, modem, and software. If you are on stock NAE then the lock screen should work as mine works with all options. If you are on a custom rom, that is where the problem is. Post a screenshot of your about phone info page or list the specifics of what you have so we can further help you.
Yea i took the Ota everything was nae but my baseband then I flashed the nea modem is

You might be screwed until the stock tar comes out. If your baseband hadn't changed with the ota, then the update didn't complete. You may still be on the mk2 bootloader. There is suppose to be an app that can tell you what bootloader your on, but I don't know what it is called. You can try to Odin the mk2 tar file. If it completes your golden and then can redo the update. If it fails then you have the NAE bootloader. you can try installing a custom kernel to get wifi back, or see if you can find a copy of the stock NAE kernel.
