[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] guut13:
Modules equal whatever bootloader/kernel you are on.

Lollipop is OC3 or OC4. You'll need to upgrade your base before flashing LP ROMs. See the links in post #3 for more info.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] PepNYC:
Hey Guut13. I went to download the tar file to get back to NB1 stock but there's two files there. One is I337UCUFNB1_4.4_Stock_Odin_tar and the other is I337UCUFNB1_4.4_Rootable_Stock_Odin_tar.

Now bear with me here. I don't want to sound like an idiot but if I flash the first one, I337UCUFNB1_4.4_Stock_Odin_tar, does that mean I won't be able to root it with towelroot because it doesn't say rootable? Does it lock the bootloader or something? Do I have to use the I337UCUFNB1_4.4_Rootable_Stock_Odin_tar? What's the difference?

I'm really just trying to get as clean a stock rom I can get with no modifications that I can flash and then root with towel root. I don't even mind going to NJ4 or NJ5 as long they're clean and I can root them.

Thanks

Hi I'm on 4.4.2 custom rom ucufni1., can I flash lollipop without lost wifi and mobile network ? can i flash modules ucufni1 after or does't work ?

Thanx to reply.

Another question. Can i restore a kitkat back up once in lollipop if anything fails? And OC3 or 4 works well in argentina? Modem and networks

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] guut13:
Of all the KitKat bases (NB1 - NJ5), only NC1 is rootable with Towelroot. This is why part of the root instructions for all the non NC1 bases is to Odin the NC1 kernel, root, and then Odin back the base kernel that you were on.

Since NB1 and NC1 kernels are almost identical, muniz_ri swapped the NB1 kernel with the NC1 kernel in the "rootable NB1 image". That way you could root with safestrap without having to swap kernels.

If you don't care, I'd say go with the lastest kitkat... NJ4 or NJ5. I'm sure that will have a lot more under the hood and bug fixes than NB1 or NC1.

You cannot flash Lollipop ROMs on a Kitkat base. You need to upgrade your phone first. Then flash the module of whatever base you are on. NI1 is a kitkat base, so it will not be that.

If lollipop fails, you can Odin back to NB1 (kitkat), upgrade to whatever base you were on, and restore your back up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] PepNYC:
I got it. I flashed NC1, applied the updates to NJ4, loaded the NC1 Kernel, rooted it and loaded the NJ4 kernel. It's working fine. One other question though. Do I really need safestrap? Not sure exactly what it is but after reading up on it in the thread it seems like a kinda dual boot type of tool that let's ya boot up different roms you have on the sd card. Also lets you backup some things.

Read OP #1 #2 and #3 and find that Safestrap is the only recovery option.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] guut13:
It's mostly for flashing ROMs, but you can flash other files in it, such as radios from other bases, and the SuperSU install. You can always flash it down the road if you find the need for it.

Hi,

I am currently on ancient rooted MK2. It's time to upgrade. I would probably want to go the latest 5.x. I found a thread that will upgrade to OC4. However, it requires a rooted 4.4 to start with.

From the top of the page, the only thing I can think of is going to NB1 and then OC4. However, MK2 is not really mentioned here. Does it actually work?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] guut13:
Yes. You have to odin to NB1 and then take it from there. (You can odin NB1 from MK2)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] redhonker:
I think I should use the version with NC1 kernel and then towelroot.

After that, can I go straight to OC4 without changing the kernel?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] t4duzan:
You will always have to use the kernel associated with that firmware. So, if you use NC1, use the NC1 kernel, and the same with OC4.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] redhonker:
I am trying to go from MK2 to OC4. In the OP,

I think I have to go with I337UCUFNB1_4.4_Rootable_Stock_Odin_tar, which is NB1 with NC1 kernel. After rooting, the question is then can I go to OC4 directly?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] t4duzan:
Yes, you are right. When having to use Safestrap, this means we have a locked bootloader and are restricted to using only Touchwiz rom. However there are some that are more CM themed than others. There is a very comprehensive list on the first page of this OP though.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] guut13:
OK2 Update

ok. Here's what I figured out last night...

1. OC3 and OC4 are directly rootable with Kingroot phone app. I used the non beta... NewKingrootV4.62_C133_B233_xda_release_2015_11_24_ 105243.apk

http://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461

2. OK2 kernel does NOT work with Kingroot, but... If you Odin the OC4 kernel, you can root it with Kingroot. Then Odin back the OK2 kernel afterwards.

*** Note - In order for this to work, you must have cellular data connected to ATT. (Sorry international folks) This is because after flashing the OC4 kernel, the modules no longer match and wifi is broken until you odin back the OK2 kernel***

3. To update to OK2, you must be on OC4 stock. So for those in the cheap seats...

1. Odin NB1 stock

2. Flash NB1 to NJ4 update

3. Flash NJ4 to OC3 update

4. Flash OC3 to OC4 update

5. Flash OC4 to OK2 update​

I pulled and uploaded the OTA here...

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=37145

Tested it myself... CONFIRMED working.

4. Uploaded the OK2 kernel here...

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=37143

Odin in the AP slot. Tested it myself... CONFIRMED working.

5. OK2 Modules. -- Until someone figures out a way to get safestrap working with this base, this is pointless, but uploading because I was able to pull them...

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=17227

Did NOT test, but I made them the exact same way I made the others. 99.99% sure they will work.

Cliff Notes -- OK2 can be rooted, but if you are going to flash ROMs it's best to just stay were you are at for now.

As for Kingroot... There is a lot of mixed feeling about this method in the threads. I'm not picking a side, but it is the ONLY direct root method. My advice... It's your phone. Read up so you can make an educated decision. (The alternative is the upgrade to OC4 "keep root" method)

You'll end up using Safestrap (both versions).

These are my notes I made from his instructions. Not enough info for first time flasher so I suggest you follow his guide, but at least it will keep you on track...

From Scratch...

1. Odin Rootable NB1

2. Install Towelroot and root phone

3. Install SS 3.72 and reboot into recovery

4. Install SuperSU and reboot

5. Set Screen Timeout --> 10 min

6. Install Flashfire and launch

Press + for Menu

Select... Flash ZIP or OTA

Select... OC4 Stock Rooted ROM

Verify auto-mount is unchecked

Click... checkmark to continue

Select... EverRoot

Verify all options are unchecked

Click... checkmark to continue

Select... Reboot

Select... Download

Click... checkmark to continue

Click Lightening Bolt and then Ok to Flash.

Phone will reboot into Download Mode when done

7. On PC, open Odin

Flash OC4 Bootloader in AP slot

*** YOU ARE NOW ROOTED LOLLIPOP ***

8. Install BusyBox

9. Install SS 3.75 and then install recovery

10. Install NC1 Flasher, open it, and Flash

When Finished, Tap to reboot into SS

11. In SS recovery

Wipe > advanced wipe... all EXCEPT sdcard

Flash ROM

Flash OC4 Modules

Flash OC4 Kernel

Reboot​
