[Q] Root method 4.4.2?

Hi i was just wondering if there has been a root method for the 4.4.2 OTA update. I updated a few weeks back and have been dying for root access.
The baseband version is N900VVRUCNC4.
Thanks in advance!
Notta
Like I said. Oughta sticky one of these so there aren't 8 million threads asking the same question.

Think there's any possibility we'll get it? I would hate to have to sell this device and move on
Im sure there will be in time?
Would we be able to downgrade thru Odin and then root and then flash rooted version of 4.4.2?

Doubt it...most of the devs that might be capable moved on from Verizon and really do not care. The reason being soon as a exploit is found and released it then is patched by the next update. It's a cat and mouse game not worth playing. There are methods out there that allow you have rooted 4.4.2, The sticky at the top of this section explains it all. "Never Accept OTA Updates".

No The Verizon N3 is model N900V and this article deals with the UK model N900
Also, in the UK the status of the Knox warranty counter doesn't matter. In the US it does.

OTA
Romania
@costyvox
Go install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo&hl=en
and do screenshot of CSC-Code and FIRMWARE page
Then everyone can download the official firmware with this tool I believe..

I think you have it accidentaly too
Must be accident from Samsung or an "accidental" leak or tease. There is no way the official roll out will begin this month since they already announced the January security patch which will start rolling out. So it will be February or March. Keep us informed if you find anything new though.

Android O Development Status for I9500

Hi there people. It's a fact that S4 is outdated. So will S4 have Android O supported by the devs?
Thanks.

Official release = No. (or maybe yes!, one of the members from JDCTeam was making official releases for LOS14)
However there are some devs who announced Oreo for our devices. RR and JDCTeam as far as I know. JDCTeam decided that Android Oreo will be their last release for S4, after that they will move onto OP5. So we're sure that we will have Oreo on our beloved S4 :highfive:
delete.
