I will try but i already did full unroot :) . When flashing via recovery it says something like frameworkres-apk has unexpected content ... Standard way ? but it will tell me software update interrupted :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Xenotrumpet:
It won't flash even without root. Tried flashing via stock recovery, no dice just like the others. Flashing results in wiping /data.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] brownie9987:
Short road...

Easiest way possible odin back to NB1 then take the OTA to lollipop that's the easiest way man
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Xenotrumpet:
OTA from ODIN stock has never worked for me. Maybe it's because it's SIM-less?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thebestiam:
What do you mean by Simless?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lordnihilusmd:
I already rooted back my NJ4 and i don't see any reason to flash NB1 because i don't live in US. I will tell you guys in a few minutes if the cache/fota method works
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] brownie9987:
Yes

Yes you'll need a AT&T Sim Card to receive the OTA update... if that's not an option I would wait a few hours until the Devs post a pre-rooted version
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thebestiam:
I'm using T-mobile sim and have still received update from AT&T.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lordnihilusmd:
That method with cache/fota - was a bad idea ... If i press the software update (even if i insert at&t card) it tells me that i'm already up to date . The cfg file is located at /cache/fota . The only hope is to wait for flashable file.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] brownie9987:
Running Great

So far this update is running great! Everything is completley overhauled, very smooth

Man that looks awesome!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Apoplectic1:
muniz_ri is on it. The man really knows what he's doing with stock rooted ROMs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] brownie9987:
Some things are different....

So i was seeing all whats changed in this new lollipop version and I booted up to Android Stock Recovery and there are a few more different options.... Im wondering if this has changed anything with the current bootloader status..?

BTW I'm also in the process of using Odin to go back to NB1 and I'm just about finished on that so good news if something was to go wrong we can revert back to stock!

EDIT! So the flash back to NB1 with Odin was a Success with my counters still at 0 so nothing gone wrong
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thebestiam:
Possible to go back to NB1 Build?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] brownie9987:
Yes

Yes! the flash back to NB1 was a Success! nothing went wrong flash counters are still at 0 so if you were to update you can go back to NB1
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] s629c:
i noticed that too. i think the bootloader/download mode also has a little extra stuff
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] EvilDan:
I have a canadian sgh-i337m with telus. Lollipop OTA is not out yet for my device. Once it will be out does it mean I will be able to go back to 4.4.2 with Odin if I don't like lollipop ? Cause im not updating if there is no way to go back... not sure ill be a fan of all the white in lollipop...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cybershawngates:
Rooted nj4....unrooted now but downloaded lollipop but i get install interrupted. Any way to fix short of odin to stock nj4...will the ota update help?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thebestiam:
You have to odin back to NB1 and take the OTA from there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] brownie9987:
Stumped

Well first on the one I do know there really isn't that much white at all, the notifications on the lock screen and the power menu is the only two things that I found white on and I've been all through the update so far...and as for the I337M i'm not sure..? I've had no experience with that...does the I337M use everything else as the US Variants? like MK2 NB1 NC1 and NJ4?? if so then I believe it would be the same thing and work just as well...if someone can second that..?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] scooty809:
That's great, wish someone would do this for the Note 4. I'm on AT&T but own a T-Mobile phone.

Thanks You Did Excellent Job Keep Working ....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lordnihilusmd:
brownie9987, you installed the update using the file in the description or you were lucky enough to get the ota ? If you used the file please explain how you did it , thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] selw0nk:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Infinitodecimal:
So, i can take the OTA without having an at&t sim card on my sgh-i337?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] LostSkleleton73:
Pretty much in the same boat, but on Rogers. Just would have been nice before my S6 comes in.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thebestiam:
Yes, i got the ota without a AT&T sim card.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Xenotrumpet:
How? I can't get any OTAs with my SGH-i337, and I returned to full stock NJ4 through ODIN.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] brownie9987:
Lucky..

I was lucky enough to receive the OTA But I had to do a couple of different steps to get the Lollipop update first I had to use Odin and go back to NB1 and then I had to grab this file here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95784891001611216 and side load it from the android stock recovery from external sd and once that was done I was able to boot up and check for updates I was alerted for the lollipop update......
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thebestiam:
Did you odin back to NB1? Then take the OTA from there. If it tells you to wait like the next day to check for update, go Date and Time, and change the date.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Xenotrumpet:
I sideloaded the NJ4 OTA from stock recovery using that same file. You're telling me I have to take the OTA update? :eek:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thebestiam:
So you are saying you are on NJ4 unrooted? If yes, you should be able to get the update. I didn't get a notification or anything, I went to Software update and checked for lollipop and it started to download instantly.

Good Luck :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Xenotrumpet:
Yep. NJ4 unrooted. I keep getting the Software Interrupted Error, no notification, no SIM card inside, no nothing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thebestiam:
You need to ODIN back to NB1, that completely erases root. How did you unroot? I've heard that if you have an external SD card installed on your phone, it can interrupt the update.

EDIT: You can also try plugging phone into Samsung Kies, The update might show up from there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Xenotrumpet:
I'd rather not use Kies.. my experiences with that program has always been bad. I've ODIN'd back using a full image, so I assume that should wipe root.

Just checked if root still remained using Root Checker. No root.

EDIT: Removing SD card did nothing. Turned time ahead one day and still got error message. Screw it, returning to NB1 stock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cybershawngates:
Same here I've always found the unrooting process never is a hundred percent in restoring the phone (thru supersu app) and always end up having to use Odin to get att updates. I'm back on NB1 one and installing the OTA
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] BiggTeddy26:
I am on Fido Running Att 4.4.4 i updated via sideload . Was previously on 4.4.2 i keep clicking checknfor updates nothing can one of you guys who get the update please upload a flashable zip
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Archer159:
Here's how I got it to work without a SIM or ATT service:

Be sure you are 100% stock NJ4

Download the file from OP to PC and extract to get the .cfg file. Push to device storage and rename the extension from .cfg to .zip using ES File Explorer. Move to SD card and flash thru stock recovery. This update will take a while... but seems to run really well

how updated to lollipop?

Hello i'm newbie in this foro, but i have a couple of questions.

1. I have the i337 AT&T with out root all stock, but when i try to updated via OTA, i get a message saying that updated had a problem and can't be done when i try to use Kies says that i have the latest firmware, so how can i get the lollipop update?

2. If i use the CFG file posted on the first comment, and put it in the sd card and tried to install with recovery, i can be able to do that? there is any problem doing that? i don't have any problem using a not root version.

thanks for the help, best regards.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Lilchampsean:
Has anyone noticed new features or anything good? So far after being on the update for give-or-take 10-15hrs, I really don't see what made this update even worth it. I'm actually depending on Rom developers to offer customizations just to be content with it like I do with AOSP on my S3.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Tortuyen:
It works perfect! Coming form NJ4 untouched

It works perfectly but you must have a fresh install, if you root your device or delete or change any of the original software will not work. You will get error when try to update with the zip file. It happened to me.

ALL YOUR DATA WILL BE DELETED – lost

What I did:

Fresh install and it works perfect.

Odin back to NB1

After that copy on your sd card these 2 files.

NB1 to NJ4 is ready to use.

NJ4 to OC3, the file in this post, need to be unzipped and you will get a file .cfg you need to rename that file to .zip

OC3 zip file will only work on NJ4 stock, untouched.

Hay Apoplectic, Thanks to you and other guys i was able to install Lollipop in my i337 and now running happily with it,

i have a little irrelative question out of this thread but i will take me days to fine the relevent post so please help me find one,

my question is how will i be able to use teathering on my ATT i337 (i am out of the US and not using ATT services anymore)

and one more Q what most likely do i need to do after flashing Lollipop on my device ie S4 i337, some guy told my to flash .pit file to gain more space from my storage, is it true?

And another irrelevent thing if you would please help actually this is a kind of Muniz_ri's job but you guys are really on it so, i think all you and the forum would help me.

How do i use teather in my phone when ever i try to use it i gives error and somebody also told me that these things are restricted by AT&T if you need to use them you need AT&T services, NOW if i am out of the US and have no AT&T services that am i not allowed to even perfectly use my phone with all its capabilties? please help me, Thanks.

So you are saying if on Stock NJ4, you just put your OC3 file .zip on SD card boot into Recovery and flash Lollipop file from there????
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Maribou:
I put the nj4 update and oc3 update on my SD card in different folders.

Odin back to nb1, reboot to recovery, and flash the nj4 update.

Boot nj4, and then reboot to recovery. Flash the oc3 update.

I wasn't able to update nb1 to oc3. It made me flash the nj4 update first.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] samxander:
[MENTION=4980764]Maribou[/MENTION] was right, i did the same steps as mines already on nc1..

Odin nb1, reboot, flash nj4 via stock recovery then reboot, flash oc3 via stock recovery and thats it.. never encountered any problem along the way except when downloading from AFH. At about 630mb or so my download fails.. switched to mobile use some booster app from playstore and succeeded in 1 go..

Thanks [MENTION=4802557]Apoplectic1[/MENTION] for the update file..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Snake of persia:
yes i do, first of all you have to put whit Odin nb1 (in my case i have nc1) when installation finish boot into Recovery go to the option update from sd card and put the nj4 update, and later do the same whit the oc3 file .

Newbie here and I really don't know what direction to take so I am hoping for some guidance.

I got an AT&T S4 running android 4.2.2, build number JDQ39.I337UCUAMDL

I want to update to android 5.0.1 but I want to know if I would have to install the versions in between or do I just jump from 4.2.2. to 5.0.1?

Also, I am using the phone in Canada so getting it from AT&T is not an option. I assume I would have to root the phone before I install any of the android ROMs but there are just so many methods out here. Could someone point to me some directions? any workable solutions with high rates of success? preferably something simple but simplicity is secondary, most importantly it's gotta be workable.

Thanks.

I confirm that it worked like charm. Thank so much mate!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] FarmGeek4Life:
Just a note, since you said you are a newbie and you may not be aware of this: if you have interest in flashing custom ROMs at all (as in, non official Samsung-AT&T roms, like CyanogenMod, OmniRom, Paranoid Android, etc.) you may not want to update your phone, unless you do it in ways that will not update your bootloader. All versions of the AT&T Galaxy S4 firmware have locked bootloaders to prevent flashing non-official ROMs. A workaround was found for early versions (I337UCUAMDB and I337UCUAMDL, on AT&T) so that custom ROMs can be used. A similar general workaround has not been found for the later firmware versions, only the somewhat limited SafeStrap, which means the only type of custom roms that you can use are SafeStrap roms, which excludes the 3 I mentioned and many others.

Unfortunately I can't give you details on how to update to this firmware without updating your bootloader; I changed over to CyanogenMod while I still had the chance.

Thanks for the reply.

I've been looking into CyanogenMod lately and after what you've said, looks like I might be heading in that direction. I went to their website lately and it seems they have a simply installer to install Cyanogenmod. Could I just use that now to update or would I need to root it first?
