hey everyone I have a question about Gnabo Rom v6. I have the 2012 n8013 and I was wondering about the flash process. I am on android version 4.1.2. Do I have to do anything else before i flash Gnabo? I have CWM 6.0.4.6 installed on my tablet and am already rooted. I was about to give up on this device since it doesnt look like we will be receiving an official KitKat update and then i found Gnabo Rom. Looks awesome. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

No problem, just backup your data, because you will have to do a full wipe within CWM. Install strictly the way posted in tbe Gnabo section first posting. After all finished, you can restore apps and data. Do not forget to finally clean dalvik cache!
Wait a few days more for Boefflas Kernel will be public, the you will have perfekt running Gnabo with 4.1.2 Bootloader

What's the difference between the 4.1.2 Bootloader and the 4.4.2 Bootlader?

Yes you can if it was a nandroid backup. but when you take the update you will lose recovery and root. The best way is to install the K3 update that says nowipe. Then you will still have recovery and root.

Just for others info for question, i updated my phone from VRLG1 to the K3 4.1.1 version and it worked perfectly fine.:good:
Hello i have a i535 Galaxy s3, with 4.1.1 jelly bean, and i want to update to 4.1.2 right now but it doesn't allow OTA updates right now, i have clockwork recovery mod installed and i am rooted right now, could anyone help me guide how to update to 4.1.2? also would i lose all my apps/settings/data?
Also i did try updating from samsung Kies but it said it did not support a update. but i did manage to backup my data/settings from samsung kies.
Sorry im kinda a noob with this stuff, i'd need a full guide to updating if that's possible, i rooted it myself by following a youtube video and it has worked well since.
Thanks
You can't update because you are rooted.

so what can i do so i have the latest jelly bean?
You can flash the ota in the bonus files section of this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1984436
If that doesn't work, you will need to Odin back to pure 4.1.1 stock then take the official ota that way

If you are looking for the latest JB, and you're rooted, why not install a 4.2.2? There are tons of awesome ROM's out there.

i'm just not very educated in flashing roms and such, but if theres a good guide for a 4.2.2 update i'd be happy to go to that. But id like to keep my applications/data somehow (i have backed them up on samsung kies and i've learned how to make a full backup on clockwork recovery) i'd just rather not re-download all my applications.

There is no 4.2 update released for this phone yet. What Mr. CJ meant was that there are AOSP 4.2.2 ROMs out. The Android OS is currently on version 4.2.2 but not every smartphone has it officially.

ah well, id like to stick to whatever the official update is out right now, for the i535 which appears to be the 4.1.2 jelly bean, is it worth really updating from 4.1.1?

To be able to flash into a Kitkat Stock-based ROM or KatKiss 5.0.1? I need to stick with stock based so my flashed touch firmware will stay.
If someone could link me to the proper tutorials/guides that would be great.

In order to use the new KitKat ROMs, you actually have to upgrade to the latest stock firmware (JB 4.2). The new TWRP and ROMs require the newer bootloader. I'm not that familiar with the touch firmware and how that works, but I'm not sure if that is upgradable too?
First OTA to 4.2, then install any recovery (see Question and answer section) and then flash ROM.
I just want to get this straight before I do anything rash. In order to install a custom rom ie MOAR on my sm-900p if the rom says 5.0.2 does my android version have to be the same or can it be 5.0 and still work without bricking? Along these same lines, is it possible to downgrade to 4.4.4 via the stock room and will there be any issues? I have also read about leaked stuff like I am running 5.0 and if I wanted to somehow get a leaked 5.0.2 rom how does this work?
Thanks in advance.

If you want to install MOAR, check the MOAR FAQ and it should answer all you questions. Post#2 is a step by step on installing. Recommend you stay away from leaked versions until you're more comfortable about how to get out of a problem. MOAR 6.0 is based on the official Lollipop release. If you have any MOAR questions after you've read the instructions, feel free to post on that thread.

Ty for the response, but, I already realize that there is a rom for 5.0 it was just an example. I really wanted to know about the android versions and if they have to be the same ie can I flash a rom that is for 5.0.2 even though my android version is 5.0?

Yes you can. You can also go back to 4.4.x but it requires flashing firmware back for Kitkat.

Using Slim Rom 3.0.64 Slim_Kat on my GT 5110 Note 8 and no plans to change. Great ROM even tho its old as is the tablet.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 AT&T rooted and want to put Slim Kat on this. It is identified on Slimroms.org , jflteatt on the download page but there is no download ROM for this phone on the page. Any clue about where to get this?
TIA

It should be up now. I missed an overlay so the 1st week's build failed. I fixed it for the next weekly.
It is not SlimKat however, it is Slim6 (Marshmallow, not KitKat)
javelinaddart
Many thanks for this! I ve had the S4 for a while and although its rooted and running Android 5.0.1 (kernel 3.4.0) battery life sucks. Understand about it being Slim6 rather than Slimkat. Hoping that it will be a good daily driver with better battery life and a way to get rid of all of the Knox and Google garbage.
Again many thinks for the posting. On installation simply use recovery to flash it?

Yeah, Download ROM (and Gapps and SuperSU if you want them) and wipe /system, /data, and /cache and flash the ROM (+ gapps and supersu, if you want them)
EDIT: Wait, if you have a jflteatt and you're running 5.0.1 stock, your bootloader is probably too new to work on custom ROMs
javelinaddart
5.0.1 is not the stock ROM. I put this on after rooting and installing safestrap. According to CPU X the bootloader is I337UCUG0C3. Fingerprint is jflteuc/jflteatt:5.0.1/LRX22C/I337UCUGOC3:user/release.keys.
Think this will work?
Again many kind thanks for your help and advice.
Edit: Can this be done with Flash Fire. All I have is the stock recovery on the phone due to Safestrap and the bootloader. Also note I have used Flashfire to do both a Fastboot and full backup to the external SD card.

You can't flash custom roms. Sorry. Nothing I can do about this.
Some TW based custom roms may be possible through safestrap, but certainly not CM or Slim, or any source built ROM.
I337UCUAMDB
I337UCUAMDL
Are the only 2 supported bootloaders that are supported for jflteatt
Understood completely. Time for a new phone ! Many kind thanks for your interest and guidance.
