Try to avoid it because it will most likely have roll-back protection and also there isn't any root as of this moment.

I'm not too worried
Will this be like the official verizon release? How far you guys think the official OTA is now?

Interesting. It will be nice to be on 4.4 and use of the apps that only work with that version (or work better with it).

Yeaahhh baby!!! It's about damn time Verizon gives us something.
I definitely won't be flashing this, it isn't worth losing root for the changes in 4.4, it really isn't that much of an upgrade.

It's possible to get a pre-rooted system.img with SS, install it, immediately reboot into download mode, install boot.img (kernel and ramdisk), modem, bootloader images, etc... then reboot. S4 guys did it. It's completely feasible for us. I can provide instructions for you to do this, but it may be somewhat verbose.
If we as a community are interested in seeing further leaks, I'd advise against uploading any mirrors of these files. The uploader has requested exclusivity. This seems like a fair trade-off to me.
Hey guys
Please please please
For the sake of development.....do not mirror this file at all. The individual responsible for the file does not want any mirrors uploaded.
Thanks for understanding.

I thought we can only install roms with Safestrap. Not even a kernal. How can this be accomplished through SS. Just curious, I'm not a developer.

Convert system.img.ext4 to img, extract contents, apply su/ss, create TWRP zip, safestrap to system, reboot into download mode, flash everything else using Heimdall except original system.img.ext4 since it's not rooted.

This has been extremely helpful for mods on the S4 Active with a locked bootloader. It is not the same as having a out-of-rom recovery but it is a nice work around as mods start flowing to this device. I have flash MANY mods for the Active and it has been GREAT. The developer is working on ideas for flashing roms but currently this is not for flashing roms, do not even try. This has not been tested yet for the G2 and I would not try it until your carrier has a restore option available (currently Verizon, Tmobile and AT&T have one and they can be found here. All credit goes to the original developer and here is his original thread
Do this at your own risk, by flashing a zip without a nandroid back up this can cause a software brick and you will have to restore
1. Install busy box from the play store (YOU NEED ROOT)
2. Install the apk from the forum
3. download the zip you want to flash
4. Select flash now and reboot
If you have get the error that says the zip is not a flashable zip here are some things that will help:
1. make sure there are NO spaces in the zip name
2. make sure the zip name is short
3. if you still get the error that says this is not a flashable zip reinstall busybox and advance features
4. Flash Gordon does not play nice with AROMA installer so the zip must not have the included
5. Check the download zip, sometimes it can get corrupt while downloading to your phone. Try to transfer the zip from a PC and flashing it. (this has happened once to me)

Something don't add up
Locked, no recovery so no root
Similiar to the file here this will update your device to MJ7 without wiping. However, always back-up your data.
The bootloader is locked on this version and keeping root may or may not happen. Please do your research before updating.
To use:
Download the file below
Extract the tar.md5 file
Flash that file in Odin

No this is an odin image, meant for flashing in odin if you get soft bricked and have no other options. Knox is definitely in it. I would imagine that roms will be popping up shortly to give you what you are looking for.

I flashed it and don't seem to be having any wifi issues. Dunno about MMS.
However, it will cause you to lose root. I had half-working root which didn't really give me much due to SELinux (I couldn't remount /system, for example), so losing that wasn't a big loss.

"Half working" meant that I could get a "#" prompt, and could read files that I couldn't as a non-root user, but still with SELinux enforcement enabled, keeping me from doing much of anything, like mounts, etc. I started rooted on MI1 and enabled SuperSU recovery, but it didn't work for me. Probably something I did wrong, and SuperSU wasn't able to reinstall itself properly.

I was asked to make this one-click to help simplify the process of flashing the new NAB Engineering Bootloader for our Note 3 users. A huge thanks to @freeza for posting it the original Bootloader TAR!
For more information on what the Bootloader is and isn't please visit his thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2655674.
I do not own a Note 3 so I have not been able to test this as I would normally prefer to do before releasing. I do however feel comfortable that it should work as designed.
Before proceeding please verify that you are already on either the NAB or NABD builds. If you are, feel free to proceed.
If you are not DO NOT proceed, you will brick your device.
Instructions:
1: Download the NAB Engineering or Stock Bootloader One-Click.
"SM-N900P NAB Engineering Bootloader.exe"
"SM-N900P_NAB_Stock_Bootloader.exe"
2: Start the Odin One-Click.
Navigate to the location where the Bootloader.exe was saved.
Double-click on Bootloader.exe". *On Vista or newer, you may need to right-click on the file and Run as Administrator.
3: Place phone in Download Mode.
- Power phone completely off.
- Press and hold Volume Down, Home and Power buttons, all at the same time.
- Release the buttons only when the ‘Warning!!’ message appears.
- Press [Volume Up] to enter Download mode.
4: Connect USB cable to PC and phone.
Odin should show a yellow COM port in the second column. If you do not see a yellow COM port, you may need to run the Odin One-Click as Administrator and/or unplug/plugin the USB cable after starting Odin One-Click.
5: Start Odin flash process.
Press [Start].
6: Complete - PASS!
Status should change to green PASS! At this point your phone should automatically reboot.
Enjoy!

Cool, happy that worked. The way I gained root was by flashing Phil's CWM in Odin then entering recovery. Once in recovery there is an option to check for root. It will prompt you to reboot and when your up and running go to the Play Store and D/L SuperSU. That's what I did at least.

Sorry information deleted. Please see other threads
Your link has been shut down by drop box for too much traffic. Can you use androidfilehost.com?
I tried last night after the link got blocked the first time. I couldn't figure out androidfilehost. I think it's a daily thing with Dropbox so maybe try it tomorrow. Or maybe someone else can figure out how to host them elsewhere.

Do you flash the file into the safestrap stock rom?

Yes you flash the rooted v2 file in the stock slot.

You can use Surges files from his thread to do the same thing. The directions are there too. I did not use the PIT file. Whenever I did that I got bad errors.

The new files gave me issues so I decided to upload the old files he posted that worked for me. I'm going to find another solution today for not being able to access the dropbox link.
This method worked for me. No pit file needed now I'm on nc5 ota rooted

What's surgs method?
I only see surge's 3 file zip in his thread. Where's the 2 file method?

Yea to be honest I am a little confused on what exactly I need to do to downgrade and then also with safestrap. I currently have an s5 but most likely I'm returning it because my friend gave me an s4. I've been reading up getting ready to root and everything but it seems there are different methods for downgrading so not sure what my best bet is...all I know is I am currently on NC5. From my understanding I have to downgrade..root..then go back to NC5 pre rooted and start with safestrap (however that's done) lol...I came from an s3 with an unlocked bootloader so this is all new to me ..any help would be appreciated

Just start out and download the downgrade file. If you need Odin I can upload that as well. Then you just put your phone in download mode. And put the downgrade file in the ap slot and click start. It will fail reboot the phone and then use the downgrade system file in the ap slot and it will complete. Then reboot the phone into recovery mode and wipe the cache and do a factory reset data wipe and you should now be on 4.3

Would make things for some of us a lot easier...
No one has been able to successfully pull it without it getting corrupted, myself included. You're best bet is to Odin NK4 and get OTA like everyone else.
