[Q] 4.4.2 Cyanogenmod to 4.4.2 stock

Okay, so my phone is currently running 4.4.2 Cyanogenmod right now, I had to find out the hard way that I cant jump back to 4.3 due to the bootloader but will it be possible to install the stock 4.4.2 safely once its released? Or is there a way to go back down to 4.3 that I'm missing..

Don't know how you got the impression you can't go back to 4.3 from Kit-Kat based CM. CM, like most stock ROMs, doesn't come with its own bootloaders but relies on manufacturer's bootloader to run. If you went to CM from stock 4.3, chances are your bootloader was unaffected and still remains at 4.3. You can check what bootloader your phone is on by going to settings and seeing what you have under baseband. If it's UCUEMJB then you have the 4.3 (MJB) bootloader and you should be able to use custom recovery to flash a stock 4.3 restore image.
If history is anything to go by, you would be unlikely to get the (newly released) 4.4.2 update OTA if you are not on a full stock (or stock-based) ROM. I would, however, not be in a rush for OTA as we can always trust the good guys in the development community to come up with a manual update process shortly. If you still want to revert to full stock 4.3, then you can follow the instructions in the thread below ...

Your right!
Used the process you gave me and it worked, I had been trying to use odin but I supose a simpler solution was better. Thanks again!
I just switched from stable CM10.1 to stock 4.4.2 this week. It sucks. Performance and battery dropped drastically. Will be going back to CFW asap.

Upgrading to Stock Lollipop While Rooted

How would I go about upgrading to an OTA stock ROM? I remember a while back that trying to upgrade via OTA would bootloop the phone, and I've not seen anything about how to go about this since then. Still on 4.4.2, looking to get onto whatever can still have root.

No OTA - How to manually upgrade from 4.4.4 to 5.1 on TWRP rooted GPE 8.3?

I searched all the forums but could not find an upgrade procedure for those who want to upgrade 4.4.4 to 5.1 on a GPE rooted tablet with TWRP custom recovery.
Is this possible?
Do I need to go back to stock recovery, unroot, take the OTA and root again?
Thanks for your help. :good:

I am on rom N910PVPU1BOB7 - 5.0.1 ...

... what would be the best way to update this to OJ6 stock rooted rom or to the Note 5 rom?
The phone will not let itself update to the OJ6. I am going to have to flash something i am sure.
Anybody have a link i should flash?
Should i do all this with twrp Or will i have to Odin something?
Thanks for all your help
Can i just twrp the oj6 stock rooted deodoxed on it ?
I tried to update with the stock oj6 and it went from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1 but stayed on the N910PVPU1BOB7. I need the software to go to oj6 not the bob7 rom.
Do i need to go to kit kat then go to the oj6? Or?
I tried twice and it would not change software bit did go from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1 .
Can anybody help?

EDIT: Just read your post in tx's thread. Follow the op in that thread and you'll get fixed up.
You can't flash a custom 5.1.1 rom over 5.0.1 without upgrading to 5.1.1 first.
