Do you know what firmware the phone is on?
That happens when you don't loki-doki after flashing. It appears you are on MDL. Use Kies to do an emergency recovery. Read the stickies in the general and QA sections.

I apologize if this has been covered, but i cannot find another situation like mine.
I have the verizon variant of the Galaxy s5
Currently on version 4.4.2
I rooted using towelroot on 4.4.2 i believe.
The verizon update came through and i completely forgot about root.
I tried to install, and it failed, then i lost root access.
Currently sitting here without root access, running towel root v3 won't work nor will changing the modstrings.
Root checker says no root,
But verizon OTA update won't work either. Get the error at the android open belly screen.
I need some help, i used to be awesome working with motorola phones, and root/unroot/restore/custom roms.
Samsung is a different story.
I need to get on the android 4.4.4 update (without tripping knox) because my bluetooth connectivity is dog ****.
Thanks for the help.

Solution,
Plug the phone into a windows laptop (may work on mac too) update the drivers. Auto play should pop up and VZW upgrade assistant will be an option. Click on this, it's pretty much automated from this point. You will not be rooted, even though a part of my problem was i wasn't rooted, but the update was failing. So thanks to HGFireHazard. He's the man.
If you have any questions i will try to answer them.
THanks

Having the same issue here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I did a factory reset and that didn't solve the issue.
I was able to get updated to NI2. If you plug in the phone to a computer (Windows in my case), you can run the VZW Updater that Windows asks if you want to run when you first plug in the phone. From there it pretty much takes care of everything. Although obviously I'm now unrooted and will have to find a way to get that back.
Ni2? What is that.

NI2 is the newest build from Verizon but it's the 4.4.4 you're looking for.
Ok. Thanks didn't realize it was called ni2. It does it all through the updater though on the desktop?

Those are just the last 3 digits of it. That's basically how those on the forum have been distinguishing between updates is by the last 3. Yup it did everything. Once I installed the app and told it to update it did everything start to finish without any additional input from me.
How did you install the upgrade assistant. Verizon website says auto play should pop up. But it's not popping for me. USB debugging is enabled. Did you manually download it

Are you on Windows 8 or 8.1 by chance? If so, when you plug it in you should get a pop up in the upper right hand corner that will allow you to run it.
No. Windows 7. It goes into installer mode to update drivers and then goes into media mode.

There should be a popup that comes up when you first plug in the device. If there isn't, that's a setting you must have changed in Windows that you will have to modify. I originally tried to find an executable to run myself as it took me a minute to find the location to run it on Windows 8.1 but I wasn't able to locate. Unless someone else can chime in you'll have to get that popup to show.
Just flipped over to my girlfriends windows 8.1 laptop. seems to be installing just fine.
Thanks for all of the help i will report back if this works.
Thanks

After rooting I337UCUFNI1, my S4 randomly shows up an error message:
"unable to detect SIM card".
The frequency is at least once per day.
So I brought my phone back to ATT warranty department.
They flashed a stock 4.4.2 ROM.
Then this problem never happens again..
Not sure if that is about the kernel flash thing or not.
How did you root that build number? I was rooted then my phone done an ota update and now towel root doesn't work anymore. So far I don't see anyway to do it. Please let me know what you used . Thanks

If you are not a Verizon subscriber...you can't get any of Verizon's updates over the air....wifi or otherwise. You can get them at www.sammobile.com once you become a member (it's free to be a member].

versions, OF1 and OB6 and works on any Windows OS.

you have an account with verizon right?
No i dont have a verizon account i bought the phone from third hand...
But with the OB6 manage to use the method of the 2 tar files to flash and succesfully came with everything, the problem is the next one, on the boot first screen says CUSTOM with the unlock lock draw or symbol, but i cant find the superuser app anywhere....
No when I reboot the phone, takes to long and says system something then I say ok and shutsdown, the only way to enter to android is recovery and delete cache...
Any way to fix this, and altought it says iu was installing the app, i cant find it, should I install the SUPERUSER app?
Hi all, I have a GT-I9500 GSM (Iraqi firmware I9500XXUHPB3, 5.0.1) Galaxy S4 which I am using in the US on AT&T's network. Bought the phone secondhand and have been using it for years - worked absolutely perfect. A while back received an OTA upgrade notification and allowed it. Starting immediately afterwards, phone will rarely connect to the cell phone network (not even talking about data here, phone calls/SMS aren't working!). Once every few minutes to every few hours and shortly after reboot it will pick up the signal, but then within seconds it's back to no network connection.
The update installation was pretty quick so I'm not sure what actually got upgraded - I'm wondering if it was the modem? Anyway my question is: what would you suggest to a newbie when it comes to phones (with plenty IT experience in PCs) as a way to try fixing it? I'm perfectly fine with attempting to flash/root it, though I've never done it before, it seems like a straightforward enough process. However there doesn't seem to be a US firmware for this phone. I'm thinking Canadian firmware/modem might be the best way to go? Should I try the modem first, or firmware? I'd love to not have to replace this perfectly functioning (hardware-wise) phone if I can avoid it - don't have the funds for a replacement right now. Many thanks in advance for any suggestions!
Phone details:
Bootloader/PDA: I9500XXUHPB3
CSC: I9500OJVHPB1
Baseband: I9500XXUHPB1
Update: solved ?
(No, not solved. It looked optimistic for a while, but still no signal)
I followed instructions you will find by searching Google for:
"Update Galaxy S4 GT-I9500 with Android 5.0.1 Lollipop Official Firmware" on HowToRootMobile
(I'm a new user here so it won't let me post a link)
to flash a Russian 5.0.1 firmware.
After a reasonable signal for a short while, I'm now back to looking at the circle with a line across it (no signal).
I have the same case but my s4 is I9505 and i did not do anything to the phone not even root it just stopped working

I am becoming increasingly convinced that this is planned obsolescence. Your phone may have installed the same update without prompting. Needless to say my next phone will not be a Samsung.
