is unrooted phone able to flash zip?
You just need a custom recovery to be able to flash zips. Rooting doesn't affect this.

No. You need to unlock the bootloader (and keep it unlocked) for the custom recovery to work.

Most recoveries require unlocked bootloader. We'll be able to use like a safestrap, etc though like on the S4

if you are on the 10o software version on an ATT phone ten yes I would recommend flashing back wit the flash tool if you want to be able to flash roms. There are a lot of people that had the 0o software and had issues flashing different roms

Does mobile Odin work for 4.4.2? If so try flashing with that and using the inject su option

I can't see a signature in the mobile app, so forgive me if it is stated. This may not work if he is in US. The i337 is not listed as a compatible model, most likely because of the locked bootloader.
That app sounds great though. I will have to remember it for other unlocked Samsung phones.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Odin probably wouldn't work because we can't get custom recoveries onto our devices.
Any other root methods available for 4.4.2?
You mean it's been a whole WEEK and we don't root for this yet???
What are we paying all these devs for?
/sarcasm
There is a new app from Chainfire developer to help in flashing ROMs,modems or any flashable files without need to flash any custom recovery.
The app boots up to a new mode in order to flash different files.
And this app is called Flashfire and it supposed to alternate the mobile odin.
This is the link to its page

Flashfire, not Flashify.
This is from Chainfire, so that alone carries some weight.
