Can you guys help me out. I've been trying to flash the OTA 4.4.3 zip on my Nexus 4 , but it ends up showing this weird error "system/bin/surfaceflinger has unexpected contents"
FYI - My device is rooted running stock ROM with cwm and twrp recovery I've uninstalled all the xposed framework modules and the Lucky Patcher app.
thanks in advance

Is anyone aware of safestrap roms that work with NC4? I'm having trouble finding a list or anything...

It seems like BajaROM doesn't work (failed for me and apparently others). Was planning on trying JasmineROM next.
None of the current roms worked for me. (Stock TW KK 4.4.2 NC4 OTA) Rooted /w busybox, safestrap, and super su binary installed.

Jasmine rom works great. No problems here.

Hope it helps
No I was on NC 2. Downloaded and flashed jasmin rom and rebooted into Odin (download mode) and loaded nc4 firmware thru Odin 3.09
I was on NC4, no luck finding anything that is working (including Jasmine). Install seems to go OK, but when I reboot the screen stays off.

How did you install super su?
I'm sure the answer will embarrass the **** out of me
Never mind after the 9th attempt it finally stuck

You can download & install SuperSU from playstore...
Open SuperSU it will prompt you that the binary needs to be installed, click ok! It will then say failed and give the option to install it via cmw or twrp click ok! The system will now reboot to the stock recovery, exit out and reboot to safestrap. Once in safestrap choose install and go to "/cache/recovery" and select "update.zip" swipe to flash then reboot to system. Open SuperSU and now it should be working.
Lmk if this works for you...

ALL, Please DON NOT try and flash any ROM if you are coming from the Verizon OTA NC4 4.4.2 build (rooted via Towelroot)...until the ROM Developer states in the OP that it is okay to do so.
EDIT: Please refer to this thread if you are on the VZW OTA 4.4.2 or NC4 kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2787627

That fixed it, thanks
@JBHawaii will that method work for stock build NC4? Currently SafeStrap isn't letting NC4 flash ROM at the moment.

Yes, it will work for stock NC4. However, chainfire just released an update for Super SU via the playstore... try that first! If the binary still fails to install then try my method.

Has any one ran safestrap and check the size of the rom slot? When I do it says 0 mb available. If I am not wrong which I could be that means there is zero space to flash the rom to.

Right now SafeStrap won't let us use slot for ROM, so we can't flash anything to it

Flash NC2 Kernel in Odin
Just flash the NC2 kernel in Odin and install a rom. Just tried it out and it works!

Ive tried Jasmine and Hyperdrive so far. They both work with no issues.
Hi is it safe to install Xposed framework on an original unrooted rom? also will I have problems when there is an official update ?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Free mobile app
Xposed requires to install onto /system so you will have to give it root to even start up.
I was wondering if there was a way to install xposed on my AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 running a rooted version of lollipop or is it not possible due to the locked bootloader?
Thanks for any help,
Pettyfan45
Nothing to do with boot loader. It's a problem with how badly Samsung skewed ART. Xposed works on AOSP/AOKP Roms like cm12. LP 5.0.1 and below, but NO TOUCHWIZ BASED LP ROMS
Have you tried to flash through safestrap

Has Safestrap been updated to work with Loillpop? Or can I use flashfire
I unlocked my bootloader and installed a stock ROM. It seems like my device is stuck at bootloop.
How can I fix this?
Btw, I didn't install SU because I want to play Pokémon.
