Never got 4.4.1. Got 4.4.2 yesterday

You missed the memo 4.4.2 came out

Sideload. Download the ota.zip, flash it in recovery (stock or custom)

I first got into rooting and flashing back in 2010 when Verizon was taking forever to update my OG Droid to Froyo. I finally got tired of waiting and decided to take matters into my own hands, and here I am today. Since you have a Nexus device, I say take the bull by the horns and update it yourself

4.4 -> 4.4.2 was 42MB, took a few minutes to install.

CM11 Nexus 5 Sprint Issues

Finally got CM11 installed the M1 Snapshot that is. I have not tried the nightly yet but in the M1 Sprint seems to be fine but when you go to the carrier menu Update Profile and Update PRL do not work. I even installed the SprintHiddenMenu.apk and no luck. Any suggestions?

Always been broken on every CM based rom on every sprint device. You have to go to stock rom and update PRL there then flash the CM rom.
It works just fine on the galaxy nexus

True but that was because there were device specific Roms but with the Nexus 5 the same ROM works for all I'd assumed they'd fix it.

It's the first nightly, they may fix this in future. For now, use nandroid or stick to ROMs that have it working. Cataclysm works.

Zimperlich root exploit Note 3

OK guys... I ran X-ray on my Note 3 (AT&T) with X-Note12 4.4.2.
It could not determine if the zimperlich exploit was patched. Now... Since I am rooted, I had 2 others test their devices with the official AT&T Note 3 4.4.2 OTA update. The results were the same.
Now since root is not available for this version yet, I am looking for someone to help with possibly building an exploit using zimperlich.
Something tells me that patch got broken.

Need help to return to stock.

I want to update my s3 to the new 4.4 that Verizon just released. I have the message about the new update but every time I try to update the phone gets the triangle and the message. Is there anyway that I can go back to stock with out using a computer?

Verizon has no update for the GS3 to 4.4. The version now is 4.3.

Android 4.4.3

I know the nexus just got the 4.4.3. Waiting for when it's available for the moto G. But I've read the 4.4.3 has some difficulty or cause problems with root. If this is the case will I lose root if I update. Or should I go back to stock do the update and root again.
I appreciate any info...

4.4.3 and up is going to keep having root problems so i would wait and stick with 4.4.2 and Wait till its safe.
I intend to do that. Until I hear otherwise. Thanks for the reply.

thats a nexus device, that does not mean your Moto G will be safe.
True ! I'll wait to hear more.

yeah i just saw it myself, sadly i have the Verizon Variant of the moto x and only the T-mobile moto x got the update xD.
My concern is it safe to get the ota while I have root. Or if I gotta go back to stock and have to root again. I thought I had read that the 4.4.3 was gonna have difficulty with root.

not sure yet, since every model of the Moto G can have its boot-loader unlocked, im sure that 4.4.3 will be rooted very soon even with the difficulties if the OTA removes your root, i would just go with it.

[REQUEST] Upload of the latest AT&T update

If someone running the latest AT&T update, IIRC 21p, could take a nandroid and upload the system, boot, and modem partitions it would help me out a lot.
Don't have a PC at the moment so I can't go back to stock to take the OTA for fear of losing root and custom recovery.
Preferably with no debloat or changes other than root (or Viper )
Thanks.

Thank you. That'll help out quite a bit.
I'm up and running on 20f, just waiting for the update to show up. When I search for updates it thinks I'm up to date.

My Atrix HD was slow like that.
Did you try *#*#checkin#*#*
Sometimes that'll make an OTA show up.
Still no luck, so I'm gonna try a factory reset.

Can someone pull the /cust partition for me, from 20f or 21I

Try taking out the SIM card and checking for the update on WiFi after a couple reboots. Works for me every time, of the update is 100% available.
