Hey folks, just wanted to know is there a way to downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.2.2?
I don't care about triggering the knox counter whatsoever.
Is it possible by rooting maybe?
Thanks.

hi.
I managed to downgrade 4.4.2TCL with knox 2.0 to 4.2.2.
was simple SamMobile I went to download the "ZTO-4.2.2-I9195UBUBNE2 Brazil" so Caribe; worked with this. Then just put in odin mode and 4.2.2 again.
Sorry my english
Cool, it worked for me aswell for m'y broken N4
hi there!
is it posible to perform this downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.2.2 in a i9190 device? Because I think the link to the solution is for the i9195 model only.
No its not. You will brick your device.
ok. So I'll have to wait until samsung releases 4.4.2 for my device and that would be in .......3....2....1........3/4..............1/2......................

You can always update latest official with Odin, but remember if you trip Knox (using arco's recovery) you could lose warranty

1.Xposed woun’t work for now on L maybe later...
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/rovo89-speaks-up-regarding-art-and-android-l-support/
2.you can try the new L here this after bump you device (Costum rom with old bootloder that can enable you to downgreat back to 4.4.2)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/rom-lollipop-rooted-rom-skin1980-t2936022
I still don't konw for sure if root & bump works on L rom stock and if we can downgreat back to 4.4.2 safely for bump & root with out brick ,
some of them says yes with TOT/KMZ some syas otherwise ...
If we can now ? maybe LG will block it in other updates soon...we don't and can't know until it arrive !
Xposed wont work on lollipop with an major update. As for root check the flashable lollipop update
Well considering that Xposed needs Dalvik and Lollipop is ART only... I don't think that's going to happen. Most definitely do not take an OTA to Lollipop as there is some big changes in security that may make it harder to root and or bump.

Xposed doesn't work on android 5.0 and it might never work, it is incompatible with ART.
If you are on a 5.0 build because you flashed the KDZ then you are out of luck, there is no way to root it (at least not yet).

Also, although @autoprime has confirmed the release of Android L for the D855 does not implement anti-rollback, this does not mean that other variants will not implement something to keep us from going back to previous software versions, then you may be stuck with Android L but no root or TWRP permanently

So For now we can ,but with other new Ver. of L-5.0 we don't know
If you want root, DO NOT update to the stock 5.0.
Simple as that. No one knows how hard it will be to root, when it will be rooted, or even if it will ever be rooted. Wait for the devs to deliver a version that support root.

Just make sure its for the 16gb variant and its from the same region
Usually if you flash firmwares from other regions theres always a ton of problems related to network signal, battery etc etc

I updated to Lollipop using LG PC Suite and ran it Lollipop for a few days..
The most annoying issues for me were notification access.. I couldn't access the notifications with double tapping on them.. Always had to single tap and swipe.
The battery somehow drains a whole lot more when asleep.. I lost 10% overnight.. horrible!!!
I reverted to my last backup F400k10u by flashing the backup through TWRP. Back on KK and loving it !!! Lollipop sucks! :good:

i also did the same.. i updated thru PC Suite and yes, I'm not satisfied with LP. As if LG did rushed things just to boast that they're the "first" to release LP (except for Nexus phones though). I'm encountering force closes and lots of lag. I don't even see the difference between KK and LP, oh there's one thing... it became worst.. hahaha!
Good thing you're back on KK. I'm much more pleased with KK since i can do most of things i want i even messed my phone and did a factory reset. (forgot to backup my data LOL )
