[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bingo99:
title says it all pretty much

this assumes several things

1) that there is a "key" that the bootloader uses to "verify" new packages (OTA) and/or your custom rom (reject)

2) that this key is available via JTAG access

3) that knowing this key would allow a custom rom to be tweaked to have the same key (hash collision)

4) that this would essentially mean a compromised bootloader

5) to be useful to lots of people, that this key is the same on every S5 for a given carrier
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcase:
1) public key, not private, not useful

2) I'm unaware of any major OEM that leaves JTAG enabled on current devices, possible exception of HTC

3) no it would not

4) nope

5) not really, the key is easily extracted firmware, and differs per carrier.

Under settings / sound / volumes. I have "use ringer volume for notifications" un-checked, but whenever I make a change to either one, they both change. It's really annoying as I don't want to be woken up at night just because someone texted or emailed me. Any help is greatly appreciated. Just to add... I can move the sliders independently, but as soon as I tap "done" and use the volume button to change volumes or go back into settings the ringer and notification sliders are matched up again. I'm on stock ,s-off, unlocked.

I don't know why it doesn't seperate the two, it works fine on my phone, but the Do not disturb isn't such a bad idea.

If you need it to ring during the night(For whatever reason, emergency?) why not add the numbers allowed to call you during the DnD period to the exception list, that way it'll ring through even if you have DnD on?

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r1punjay:
I just reflashed the moto g stock recovery using moto tool so that I can flash the official 4.4.3(I was using TWRP before).But the thing is that when I reboot to stock recovery,there is this dead android logo but no options like wipe,apply update etc.Shouldn't these options be present in the stock recovery or did I do something wrong?I cannot tell if the recovery is working or not.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vhngu930:
I don't think the stock recovery is supposed to have these options anyway... I think it does all the work when you apply an update in the settings... It automatically reboots to recovery and installs to make sure that users don't do it themselves.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r1punjay:
Oh so that means the stock recovery is working fine!Thanks
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tansly:
It has wipe data/apply update options. When you see the dead android, you have to press the vol up button for 10-15 secs then tap the power button to get into the recovery.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jdsingle76:
STOP!!! PLEASE READ!!! Before you flash this zip file in recovery, you MUST FIRST flash either the NDC tar(see below for link),

or the ND8 tar, in order to obtain the KK bootloader and modem. If you flash this directly over JellyBean bootloader, you WILL brick!!

Alright folks, here we go again. Just as the title says, this is the NDC 4.4.2 Kit Kat update for Boost/VM in flashable zip.

Stock, rooted, busybox, zipaligned, odex or deodex. That’s it. Pretty basic. More to come in the future, but this should be enough

to keep you busy for awhile. Enjoy!

Notes: PLEASE READ!

1. In order for this to work, you need to flash the NDC tar first! Flashing the tar will/should not wipe your data.

2. And yes, NDC tar does come with Knox, so if you flash the tar, you have Knox. And if you flash CWM via Odin to flash this,

it WILL trip Knox, thus voiding your warranty.

3. This MAY cause you to lose your modem, but not to fear, we got you covered.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jdsingle76:
This is from jmatherly11, over at Android Forums, who found a good way to get rid of the "Samsung" title in the drop down, as well as some other stuff.

For those of you that are seeing "Samsung" in the pull down menu as well as the network type displaying "Samsung" there is a fix in the PlayStore, its called "Refresh Customization" by Samsung MNO Labs. This will factory reset your phone after you download select the first option called "Refresh Customization Opt1," if it is unsuccessful try "Opt2." This fixed my phone after the KitKat upgrade and if your like me and use Sensorly to map Sprint's network it will not correctly map the info because Sensorly thinks you on a network called "Samsung."

This app was designed for Samsung Galaxy devices ONLY running on Sprint's networks. If a Samsung device's initial customization settings has been lost due to the system upgrade to the KitKat platform then this is your fix. This also repairs the "My Account" app that displays "MobileZone."

Also my device is completely stock on 4.4 so for those of you that are rooted I have no idea if this will work.

awesome work JD, I don't post a lot because I do a lot of reading and I find I do not usually have to post because if you do your research everything is covered. But this one has me concerned as it seems a little out of my league. I do not think I am a noob but, not far past. I have a galaxy s3 I rooted it myself and I'm running 4.3., I noticed you mentioned Odin and flashing my custom recovery, I am already running clockworkmod do I have to use Odin? Can't I just flash that car and then the zip using the custom recovery I already have? It's business as usual right? Just flash those items in the order and then the new modem and I'm good to go? And if I have to revert back to back up will I be able to do that? Will I be able to revert back to 4.3? Just a little nervous and thank you for all of your hard work and answering my question in advance. I love the work you guys do and I think it's awesome everyone in this community stick together and help each other. Anyways I will lay back in the bushes and patiently watch for a response!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] moonknightus:
Question 1: Do you have to use Odin?

Answer: You'll need to be on the ND8 or NDC bootloader for this to work. When he says you have to use Odin, he means for flashing the stock tar for either the Sprint ND8 or the Boost/Virgin NDC ROMs. The tar files can't be flashed from recovery and please don't try to use Mobile Odin, as it doesn't like ND8/NDC.

Question 2: Can you revert back to 4.3?

Answer: You can revert to 4.3 insomuch as using a 4.3 ROM. You can either flash a 4.3 zip from recovery or restore a CWM/TWRP/etc. backup . You will not be able to revert your modem or bootloader to anything prior to ND8 after flashing the ND8/NDC bootloader. It just doesn't work.

Hope that helps.

Most notice no change but you may have better reception with the NDC modem, no guarantees. They are about the same, just carrier specific. You can always flash back to ND8 tar if you do decide to try it, just fyi.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Weird, anybody else confirm this? If everybody is getting it I think I have a solution. If it's only you, it's probably a bad download of the ROM or something got messed up in modding/setting up.

You cannot downgrade your bootloader or modem once you have TouchWiz 4.4.2. You can flash any ROM you want, but you can only use the ND8 or NDC modem once you're on the ND8 or NDC bootloader.

ND8 bootloader and modem works best, some have had trouble with NDC even though technically it's the right combo for them.

At the time the instructions were written in the OP, MK3 modem was the latest.

When I made the instructions, there was no stand alone modem. And when I said "flash the rom of your choice" I meant either the deodex or odex, after flashing the tar.

Does any1 have issues with uploading videos on Instagram with either Odex or Deodex?

It works flawlessly with the Stock TAR, but once I flash the Rooted Odex or Deodex, i have issues uploading videos.

I'm 99% sure its not the External SD Card Write Support issue. I did the NextApp SDfix thinking that could solve it but it didnt.

I was hoping new IG releases would take care of the issue but nothing.

I really want to keep a Stock ROM, but I also want to be rooted.
