[Q] Latest L720 stock firmware ROM

I have the Galaxy S4 (L720) running Android 4.4.2 (NG2). Is there a 4.4.4 version available? If so, can someone provide a link? Thanks.
Nope... Lollipop 5.0 is on the way though, Sprint is testing it now. You are on the latest as of now though.

Thanks. Will Lollipop be released by Sprint for the L720 or will it be a custom ROM released by a developer? We also have a M919, wonder if T-mobile will do likewise?
Alternatively, I've seen that there is a GPE Lollipop coming available? Wonder if that will be a better choice. I certainly don't care about the carrier-specific apps.
Yes. Exactly. Happens a lot, not all phones get every update.

No. I don't believe it will let you flash anything that is not meant for your device. And you run the risk of a hard brick.

Rooted phone but eligible for Android 5.0 update?

So I planned on backing up my device using Kies since I want to flash a custom rom. Kies said it support my device so it told me to download Smart Switch. I did that and it says there's an update available for Android 5.0.

I thought this was weird since I tried doing an OTA update and it gave me this message:
Should I continue with the update or just flash Omega rom?
Don't use Kies. You can manually upgrade if you want.
Download the firmware using this:

Then flash it using Odin.
Then you have Lollipop bootloader and modem.

Unable to update my Asus ZenFone 5

I found my old ZenFone 5 and want to give it to my little brother. But I can't seem to get it to update beyond 4.4.2 . I don't exactly remember what I did with it back in the day when I had it. I think I tried unlocking the bootloader or something.
When I try to apply the update from within the phone, I get this error on the screen

Please help!
You can't update to latest version. You have to install latest kitkat update. After the update reboot. Then update to Lolipop with first lolipop version. Then update to latest Lolipop version. And check your device country code. If its WW install WW updates. If its TW install TW updates. You can't install WW on TW. Or other way around.
