[ROM] D800 KitKat Manual Update with Root

DISCLAIMER - I am not to blame if you screw up your phone. Proceed at your own risk.​
Thread closed since there is an option now for stock AT&T crap with recovery and international version with recovery, with working google wallet and no carrierIQ or AT&T bloat.

YES!!! It will take a long time to flash...did not hang. Just needs time
I will have custom ROM up later tonight.
I will have custom ROM based on International version once it is released and I can get my hands on the KDZ or TOT. This way we do not have to deal with CarrierIQ.

Thanks for this, awesome work.

Yes!!! You are THE MAN. Thanks so much.

Are you using the aboot from one of the 10x builds? I am pulling the ROM down now but I am concerned that installing this will update my aboot and make it so that going back to a different kernel/ROM will be difficult. I am not all that up on LOKI so perhaps this is just a dumb post :/.

What if we are on the unrooted KitKat ota? Just flash this? Or downgrade, then flash recovery and then flash this?

when you use lg flash tool to go back to an older firmware, it replaces your aboot with that firmwares aboot. so you have nothing to worry about.

@bigfau
we need a custom KK rom from you. GOGOGO.

Ah, OK. So if I'm running houstonn's PA ROM I can't just go into TWRP, wipe everything, and flash this ROM? I first have to downgrade to stock 10d, etc?

If you have a custom recovery just flash both rom zip and superuser. No need to downgrade unless you have stock recovery.

Yes this is 100% stock. I will have debloated international ROM up in a couple of hours for D800.

Newest stock OTA zip inside, will someone root it for us?

OTA file to bring the m8 on Verizon up to 4.17.605.9 and patch stage fright exploit.
Would a dev be kind enough to put together a rooted version on this? I do not know what else is included in this update so feel free to grab it from my Dropbox and tear it open. ? thanks in advance!

Hi Andy!
I haven't installed the OTA on my phone. I have twrp so it fails and I just didn't want to chance losing root by flashing back to stock recovery.
Anyone else want to give it a go and get this man the system pull??
Thank you Andy!

I just noticed this got moved to the m9 forum.. Not sure why but can a mod move this back to the m8 forums?

Yes... it also enabled video calling and wifi hotspot for me. The tethering/hotspot menu setting is not there, but the dropdown notification settings can have the hotspot setting added. Havent tried the video calling feature. Also the dialer codes do not work in the ##DATA# format.

Its not the firmware that came with the phone originally. It's the first OTA. I downloaded it. It's only the AP. No BL, CP, or CSC. So those will still be from PD3. I installed it via Odin and am setting the phone back up right now. So far everything is working ok. Would be awesome to have the bootloader and everything else that goes with it, but if it works it works!

The PC5 package totally works though. Bootloader and all. I just successfully Odin'ed all 4 tars back to PC5 and will remain on PC5 until Samsung and Sprint can get their heads out of their asses when it comes to the poor battery life introduced with the PD3 update.

The AP, CP, CSC files all flash fine, the BL will not. And you may get bootloops. I haven't seen anyone other than the original uploader get it to boot up properly.

No way to go stock after new update?

I asked in the MOAR q&a thread but realized it's a generic question that does not generally pertain to the ROM. After the new stock update Odin is useless to flash any thing because it blocks any flashing at the bootloader. Is there any way to go stock if I haven't backed up anything? I'm currently running on the new update base and have MOAR speed racer flashed. Thank you for any help

Any fixes yet same thing I just ran into. I haven't used stock in so long I had no idea you couldn't go back

What version are you on now? As of PK1 firmware, you cannot flash back to a previous version, you would need PK1 or newer to go back to stock.
