[Download][Install] 4.3 OTA Update

Warning: This will update your bootloader, so proceed at your own risk!
Flashing the update will wipe all data, as in factory reset wipe, as in everything is gone. Poof!
You must update to 4.1.2 before updating to 4.3.
You can not downgrade to 4.1.2 after installing the 4.3 update. Any attempts to do so will brick your device.
Go Here For Rooting Instructions
Instructions
1) Backup your files to your PC.
2) Odin back to stock 4.1.1 (DLK3).
3) Download update zips for BOTH 4.1.2 and 4.3, and check MD5 for both.
4) Create two folders on your external sd card named 412 and 43, and put the 4.1.2 and 4.3 updatexxx.zip in the respective folders.
5) Plug phone in to AC charger (4.3 update takes a while).
6) Reboot recovery, install the 4.1.2 update from sd card, flash (update installs and phone reboots).
7) Reboot recovery, install the 4.3 update from sd card, flash (update installs and phone reboots).
8) Enjoy 4.3!
Edit:
The 4.1.2 OTA can apparently be flashed with Mobile Odin.

does it work on unrooted stock 4.1.1?

That should be fine with stock recovery.

Should mention that this replaces the boot loader so be careful.

Correct. Root is holding fine after CF Auto-Root. And I installed both TWRP and CWM, both of which are working fine.

Just curious my friend when you say rename zip do you mean rename this 2400258.zip to update.zip and then flash it then use odin to to install CF Auto-Root?

Thanks again Got CWM Recovery Rooted with Latest AT&T 4.1.2 As you can see Baseband version:I747UCDMG2 In my my Deadly Venom Custom Rom! :good:

Works fine when updated from 4.1.1 stock recovery, thanks! also it wipes all user setings and data.

nice! EXCEPT for deleting all my apps and ****!
update: but worth it, runs much smoother, and some games like Jewels Deluxe, which is easily the best Jewels out there now work again

Strange, but I was on stock 4.1.1 with root and clockwork. Did the OTA, when installing the phone reboots into CW recovery. Asks if I want to install untrusted zip. Choose yes ands CW installed the update. Then warns that I could lose root....fix? Chose yes and CW kept my root. Did this work do anyone else?

Should have a flashable zip of this by tomorrow evening. I've been tackling this thing all night, (5 a.m. here) and I have successfully dumped everything I need and am working on setting it up in the kitchen. I've pulled the modem but I'm too afraid to test at the moment. It's 60 MB, yet all of the other modems are ~40 MB. Getting pretty exhausted so I'll have to take a break soon.

I hope you don't mind if I pull this modem out from your ZIP and put it on my modem list? I don't have an AT&T device myself, so I have to rely on others to post the AT&T updates.

Sorry keyboard autocorrect... Non-stock Roms require zv8 radio.
All lollipop versions are non-stock. So you would need the zv8 modem.
If you are on zvc, and you want to go to say resurrection remix or Aicp.
Zvc stock, use ioroot25 to get root.
Download auto-rec.
Install and run
Download TWRP manager from play store.
Update TWRP to 2.8.4.1
Reboot to TWRP.

Now that is a trick I haven't looked into. Knock code was involved in the kernel/lock screen. May have to Google and see if a third party lock screen app can do it or a mod.

Twrp won't have the decryption keys or some of the HTC specific functions required to apply the OTA. You'll need a stock /system and a stock recovery.

Would this explain the error that I'm getting?
Package expects build fingerprint of htc/tmous/htc_m8:4.4.4/KTU84P/396641.2:user/release-keys or htc/tmous/htc_m8:5.0.1/htc_m8: 5.0.1/LRX22C/464190.4:user/release-keys.; this device has htc/tmous/htc_m8:4.4.3/KTU84L/365360.5/user/release-keys.
I flashed stock recovery, but my phone is still root. Did a full wipe/restore, still getting same thing. The error looks like it's not happy about a missing update perhaps, if I'm reading that correctly. Best I know, I have the latest kitkat version. But, I've had twrp for awhile so maybe I missed an OTA update along the way.

If you're SOFF and supercid just flash the lollipop ruu T-Mobile just release. It doesn't matter what previous rom you're on. Then reflash custom recovery and rooted. I've done this alot of time already.

So the steps would be:
- Flash stock recovery via fastboot
- Flash firmware via fastboot
- Flash twrp via fastboot
- Flash Lollipop via twpr
Is this correct?

For me (I am s-on) I did it in this order:
- flashed twrp stock rom
- rebooted and made sure the rom worked
- flashed stock recovery via fastboot
- rebooted and downloaded and installed OTA.
If you are s-off I believe (someone correct me if I am wrong) you can use the RUU instead.
I did have a wifi issue which was solved by a factory wipe ( yes I had to re-install and setup the phone again).

Use the old Xposed Installer v2.6.1 with TW 4.4.4, and you can directly install the xposed framework within the app.

Just a heads-up for anyone having trouble flashing any of these. I tried several times and re-downloaded the modem and the full firmware. They failed multiple times in multiple versions of odin(for me). I gave up on the modem but kept working on the full and it finally took but I was stuck at t-mo boot screen more than once and it wouldn't fully boot. Finally I flashed the newest twrp before taking any other measures and it finally booted.

In case it gets stuck at T-Mobile boot screen after successful firmware flash, just hold the power button till your device turns off,
Then go into stock recovery by using power+home+volume up button and do a factory reset.
It should boot fine.

Thanks for the reply. I forgot to list that I did that also. For me at least this S4 was very stubborn to take on this flash. I was mostly posting so if anyone else ran into this so they wouldn't panic. All is well now though. It came around eventually.:good:

I searched this out because I'm looking for a Stagefright fix for the S4 (my wife's phone). It looks like the other ROMs were last updated prior to Stagefright, so I expect they are not fixed. However, I'm OK with stock as long as it is rooted.
Are there any issues with rooting? I read in this article that T-Mobile put a SetUID restriction on the kernel and the normal process for TWRP and SuperSU doesn't work.
The author was writing about the UVUAMDL firmware, and offers a link to download a patched MDL kernel with the restriction removed.
Since this thread is about the UVUFOK3 (a later version), it seems likely that the SetUID restriction still exists. However the article also says "MAKE SURE YOU ARE ON UVUAMDL build OTHERWISE THIS KERNEL WILL BREAK THINGS IN YOUR PHONE!" So does that mean "UVUAMDL only - nothing newer or later" or "UVUAMDL or later"? No way to know since the article has not been updated since UVUAMDL.
Has any one successfully rooted the S4 after installing this firmware? (M919UVUFOK3_M919TMBFOK3_TMB)
Is the kernel provided in M919UVUFOK3_Stock_Kernel.zip already "fixed" to remove the root restriction?

Nothing is modified as it is a stock package, stock kernel is only required if you flash some custom kernel and wanted to go back to stock by just installing the kernel instead of full ODIN.
This is what I always use to root:
1) Install latest TWRP via ODIN
2) Boot into recovery
3) Flash latest SuperSU zip using TWRP.

So it should be a fairly straightforward process? The issues technut experienced are unusual? Has anyone else installed and rooted using this ROM? Please report on how it went.

a103, when you say "flashed a custom ROM", do you mean a different ROM than the one in the OP of this thread? (since this one isn't really custom) If a different ROM, which did you flash? I didn't find many options that contained the OK3 firmware.

The phone currently is running Wicked V8 custom ROM, so I think I need to flash everything. What are the steps for updating all three; firmware, kernel, and modem? Is there a particular order to flash them in Odin?
I read in another place that the firmware contains the Modem so I wouldn't need to flash the modem in addition to the full firmware (M919UVUFOK3_M919TMBFOK3_TMB.zip). Is that true in this case? Does it include both modem and kernel?
Edit - After searching out how to open tar.md5 files I can now see that the full firmware does include the kernel and modem files. So installing that one should sufficient to update everything.

a103, did you have any of the problems reported by technut above? Was it a smooth process of flashing?
Here's what I think has been said:
0) Before starting - copy UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip, Titanium Backup APK, and Titanium Backup data onto ExtSD card.
1) start phone into download mode, Use ODIN to flash M919UVUFOK3_M919TMBFOK3_M919UVUFOK3_HOME.tar.md5
2) restart into stock, let it stabilize.
If any problems or stuck on Tmo screen, restart into stock recovery and do factory reset
3) once booted into stock FW, power off.
4) restart into download mode, use Odin to flash openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-jfltetmo.tar
5) boot into TWRP
6) install UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip
7) reboot into Android - phone is now rooted again and ready to go.
8) restore user apps (not system apps or data) from TiBu, restore TiBu XML data for SMS and call logs, etc.

a103, did you have any of the problems reported by technut above? Was it a smooth process of flashing?
Here's what I think has been said:
0) Before starting - copy UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip, Titanium Backup APK, and Titanium Backup data onto ExtSD card.
1) start phone into download mode, Use ODIN to flash M919UVUFOK3_M919TMBFOK3_M919UVUFOK3_HOME.tar.md5
2) restart into stock, let it stabilize.
If any problems or stuck on Tmo screen, restart into stock recovery and do factory reset
3) once booted into stock FW, power off.
4) restart into download mode, use Odin to flash openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-jfltetmo.tar
5) boot into TWRP
6) install UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip
7) reboot into Android - phone is now rooted again and ready to go.

[DISCONTINUED]Stock ROM VER:WW-15.0410.1803.51_ROM 4/12 Update TWRP Flashable!

Hey guys since i dint see any stock roms here, i decided to make one thats possible to flash from twrp, its 100% stock nothing added nothing taken from original rom, no firmaware files in rom zip.
I have the the US Asus Zenfone 4 pro , tested ONLY ON THIS DEVICE DO NOT FLASH IT ON ANY OTHER ZENFONE YOU HAVE BEEN WARN!!
How to Flash:
1.Unlock Bootloader Via Official App
2.Flash TWRP
3:Swipe to allow modifications to system VERY IMPORTANT! flash noverity.zip just incase you get stuck in a bootlooop.
4lace zip on your sdcard/internal Storage
5:Wipe Data/System
6:Flash rom zip (Ignore "unknow command error" after flashing, i need to cleanup the update script )
7.Reboot to system
I followed these step and rom flashed fine.
I might try and do some other things with this phone, be advised i haven't tinker with android in a very very long time.

Thanks Dude! Now I cant root it safe, without worrying about not having a recovery

No problem!, This will also allow people that unlocked bootloader before getting the latest ota, to be on the latest software update, il keep making these as asus releases future updates for our phones.

Added Latest WW-14.2610.1801.51 update enjoy guys.

Thanks dude...and sorry to ask...but can you do one with the oreo update? Thank

As soon as someone posts the oreo ota zip i will, haven't gotten the update on my phone yet ;/.

ok guys i have a working flashable OREO! but videos are lagging because i havent been able to flash the firmware files need to dig deeper into this, before releasing it, give me some time guys, also twrp is unable to decrypt OREO internal data so thats another issue, but this one si out of my league shakalaca will need to update our recovery to decryot oreo data, il upload the current rom if anyone is willinf to flash it with the current issues, let me know.

Here's a screenshot of about screen.

Proof of root on oreo

Hi.Can I update my firmware if bootloader is unlocked and root is installed?If so, how?

You want to upgrade to oreo? Or just update your current firmware?

Just wondering.Are phones updated when the bootloader is unlocked?

Yes you can update phones with unlock bootloader's, if you want official updates you need the stock recovery, the twrp flashable roms i made will give you stock recovery.

Where is the stock recovery to take?

Flash any of the twrp stock roms i made and it will give you stock recovery.

Download firmware from the official website of asus, install it via twrp
and I get stock recovery with the new firmware???You don't know when to do an unofficial unlock of the bootloader?

Hi. I flashed the stock rom you uploaded because I accidentally lost mine... aside from audio/video lag issues, audio from calls were also unable to hear. Will patiently wait for your stock rom with firmware files. thaaaaanks

Go into recovery and flash the official oreo zip this will flash firmware files and fix no audio/video lag issues.

If you flash my oreo zip with no firmware and boot it up, this will give you stock recovery, which you will need to flash the stock oreo zip , and ofcourse you will need to reflash twrp after.
