If you're on TWRP you need to be on 2.6.3.3 or higher
FLASH THE ROM THEN FLASH THE SUPERUSER ZIP AFTER. THIS UPDATE WILL REMOVE YOUR RECOVERY.
CHECK OUT THIS THREAD TO GET RECOVERY BACK ON YOUR PHONE. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715496
It takes a long time to flash so be patient, if you get a LOKI error and it says 'FAILED' ignore it, wipe Dalvik and Cache after you flash, and reboot.

Are we still able to downgrade or use a flex Rom if we are unhappy with the Rom or features

No custom recovery so no ROM flashes until someone finds a new exploit. Not certain about the downgrade to older firmware, I'm sure that you could though.

Any new features make it worth upgrading from a flex Rom?

Flash question
What if im not on stock rom but a custom rom. Can i flash this anyways?

Wait.. how are we supposed to flash Superuser.zip if our recovery has been replaced? And is this the TMO version? It hasnt even been released yet.

Few observations:
- You can now enable the transparent status bar setting in NOVA launcher!!
- Group Messaging is now featured
- Emoji's don't send as MMS anymore
- Weather animation on secure lockscreen
- You get Immersive mode now with apps that support it.
They disabled Google Wallet which sucks but I'm sure their will be a workaround eventually.

GEOHOT and ATT S5 ROOT (Towelroot) and Works on i337 NC1 phone as well!!!

Geohot has found a vulnerability in the New ATT/VERIZON S5 and confirmed by users it works on our i337 ATT NC1 FIRMWARE ONLY. Check out his thread HERE http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2783157
I am ONLY relaying his great work here and have NOTHING to do with it. I just try to keep up with a few other phones when I think I may upgrade to. So I brought this here in case others were not following the Verizon/ATT S5 forums.

For this towelroot to work on the ATT S4 you need to be on NC1 firmware. It does not seem to work on MK2 or NB1.

Yes it works, you must download supersu or superuser from playstore yourself as it does not install it for you, also super su will fail to updat binarys, however root still works...I have already been able to modify my build.prop using es file explorer

If all you want us root than no, simply download the apk from the website, and click the bytton un the app...no computer required...possibly the simplest to use root method ever released for the s4

Not sure about safestrap...but definitely not twrp, twrp requires a bootloader exploit, this js just a root exploit...I would assume we are back in the same situation as mk2...root but no recovery except maybe safestrap...im not home at the moment so im not gonna risk softbricking my phone with safestrap

Safestrap just requires root, and since it works on 4.4.2 bootloader and such already then the process is now just root and Safestrap to get 4.4.2 ROMs.

I couldn't get it to work on NB1, but upgraded to NC1 and it worked fine. Safestrap however, is not installing. I tried pushing it to /system/app & /priv/app and setting permissions. It says it installs, but system status says it's not installed.

So after this, what is the new method of odining to stock, root, and recovery? Odin flash nc1> towel > safe strap?

Thanks for answering that!

I was able to get Safestrap installed.

Okay, I've ran this app...downloaded SuperSU and Superuser and still can't do anything root related...IE use titanium backup?
What am I doing wrong? ATT S4 4.4.2

Does this mean I can finally take the Ota updates and stop using mk2???!?

Yeah the V1.3 should fix it for you but if i were you i would unroot, update and then reroot or you can just update with the stock root NE5 ROM just because for the Sprint GS5 updates are to increase stability mostly then performance.

Xposed Android Lollipop

Before the installation of the ota of android 5.0 I have to unistall xposed because it doesn't work with ART, right?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app

You'll have to uninstall xposed for any ota anyway regardless of lollipop
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

And flash stock recovery. And hopefully nothing else was altered in the system that could affect the Ota.
Personally, I'd backup my apps and just flash stock 4.4.4. As soon as I hear the Ota is out that is.
Tho really, I always wait a couple days and flash it with fastboot, clean. ?

Ok, so I have to unistall Xposed...
I rooted the device with Towelroot, so there isn't particular problems with the system? Or towelroot makes something different to system files unlike root?

Although why OTA anyway? If you're rooted with a custom recovery, you can just flash a pre-rooted L zip which will be available before the OTA Anyway

So use flashify to install twrp recovery and then you will have a way to flash. Doing any phone/tablet modding is highly dangerous if you don't have a computer available to you in case something messes up...
#stayparanoid

I just grab the files from google and flash my phone clean with fastboot. I'll Add the recovery and root a few days later (if available). I like my phone the way it is and don't like to change just for OTA.

Ok, I'll probably use flashify, thanks everybody

Am I correct in assuming that xposed does not work under lollipop because of art?
Can lollipop work using dalvik?

Correct. And no.

(A man of few words. ? )
That's a problem for me and might make me not accept the upgrade. I really like xposed and xgravity and my nexus 5 is fast enough.

I'm sure it won't be long til xposed will be updated.

I hope you're right but it may not be an easy task because of the different ways dalvik and art handle things.

Then we'll need to rely on custom roms for customizing.. Until xposed does work.

Kind of like we have done for the last X years? Before xposed ever existed?

Not getting Android 5 update because I'm rooted?

I thought the Lollipop update for Android L was being rolled out. I'm on stock 4.4.4 and rooted. I also have xposed framework and Gravitybox mods added. Could this be why I am not getting the OTA update?

No, it rolls out in stages. But once you get it it won't work with xposed installed. Also, you have to be on the stock recovery if you're not already.

I actually just received the ota today and didn't change anything at all. What happens if I attempt to download the update even though I'm not on stock recovery?

It will fail and be a waste of time.
