Cokc is the newest. You have to Odin flash the whole stock rom, re-root, and flash Tek's rom.

I recently flashed my Captivate with Cognition 4.2.2. I just noticed that 4.3 is out now with some desirable updates. Furthermore, I notice that there is a full ROM and a "Kernel only" version.
I have noticed that some people only talk about doing a full ODIN procedure back to stock is only necessary when flashing an entirely new ROM.
If I update to 4.3 :
Can I flash the kernel only? Or is there lot's of important things I will be missing. Is it only recommended to update kernel if I know that there have ONLY been updates to the kernel?
Is it important to flash back to Stock? Or can I just put the update in the root directory and use clockwork to boot after renaming the ROM to "update.zip"?
Any information on the way that these parts intertwine and what an update to one does to the others would be appreciated.
Thank you!
So, I am running CleanROM 6.0 R2.
Base of VRBMB1
Stock Kernel.
Now, when moving to a different ROM, say a new MF1, do I always have to install firmeware, or does a "FULL OS" ROM update that?
So, say I want to install this ROM tonight. Do I flash MF1 from this link as well? (If so, ROM first, or Firmware flashed first?)
I keep reading about updating software for the modem, (MODEM/RPM/TZ/SBL) ? I assume all firmware does not include all 4 items? Some just Modem? Clarification please.
Last, what is the RPM? TZ? SBL? Modem I get.
That for the newb refresh, as I have been playing catchup.
Thank you guys in advance for your help but I just had a few questions. I am running 4.4.2 currently with the stock rom rooted and unlocked bootloader. I have however issued a few Mods such as extreme power saving and built in tether. Can I just load the 4.4.4 firmware and radios, switch back to stock recovery and take the OTA to 4.4.4 without having to wipe anything or since I have used some mods do I now have to wipe my device and put everything back after getting the 4.4.4 update. The reason I ask is I like having the stock features while just using google now launcher on top of sense. Also would any of you have a recommendation on a ROM to achieve this same thing so I dont have to go through this everytime I want to take the newest OTA if it is not possible to take without wiping.

Flash the ruu here. That will get you to 4.4.3 the easy way and make you 100% stock so you can take the ruu. Then flash twrp and flash su or the rooted Rom of your choosing.
The RUU is one way to go, although I would never update via OTA...
Another would be to flash the firmware and radios from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2723159
And then Scott's rooted stock rom from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2914922
He usually has them up a few hours after a new OTA has been released. Even better - try his stock, debloated CleanROM once it's out.
This way you can keep your recovery. You can even try to just flash the 4.4.4 firmware and radios and see if it runs your current 4.2 ROM ok. But I would not update the rom from version to version without a wipe.
The setup is the price to pay for getting a new and hopefully better Android version.
I've never had issues barging into a development community and going out to the horizon of customization until this cellphone. It's been 12 hours of flashing and downloading and flushing and flashing...
I have S-off and unlocked through SunShine
I use the 0P6BIMG.zip to flash RUU back to the stock verizon rom android 4.4.2
I use 3.28.605.4-firmware.zip from the same RUU thread to update the firmware (???)
I want to install CM12 or liquidsmooth ROM, but I'm getting a hunch at this point I need to start with the stock verizon 5.0.1 installed before that because TWRP wants to patch the system file... But then why am I wiping my system before installing?
I also tried flashing FluentRom_v7.5.zip but I got stuck on the HTC initial screen, I don't even make it over to a boot animation.
What do?

I'm prettly sure you're on an older firmware. You need to be on 5.01 to flash the ROMs you have tried to flash. Use the pre-rooted RUU from this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...zw-m8-master-ruu-firmware-collection-t2946473
Also make sure you have the latest version of TWRP.
Edit: The firmware you flashed was 4.4.4

Thanks for the link that thread and your advice was exactly what I needed.
For whatever reason after using the app/exe to flash 5.0.1 stock-rooted, Liquid Rom failed to install in TWRP. I reflashed the stock-rooted rom and CM-12.1 worked flawlessly. So I'm on CM right now :good: but I'll take another look into Liquid rom. Thanks so much!
Since you like AOSP, I recommend visiting the main m8 thread some other Roms. They are unified builds.
So it has been a while since I rooted my son's galaxy s5. I am looking to update it to the latest firmware but then want CM on it. Can I just odin the latest and then oden TWRP recovery and then flash CM? Or is the latest firmware going to block that?
I'm currently on the latest OK4 firmware, and have had no problems flashing TWRP when I upgraded.
