Because there were problems with it and 4.3.,I don't think it was wiping correctly and backups were not working also.

How to upgrade!

So the last 2 times I have updated ota I have gone into a bootloop. I tried complete wipe then flashing kk modem then pa and pa gapps to only be stuck in another boot loop! At this point I'd just like to be able to get a 4.4 rom. How do I do it without bootlooping? Thanks!
Here's my software info!

Download a 4.4 ROM from here, copy it to your phone, then flash it in recovery.

@hdjx20 You need the KK modem as well. Wipe, then flash modem before or after rom/gapps.

LP Rom flash?

Will it work to flash a Lollipop Rom with latest Philz recovery?
I ask this question because I think that latest version of philz is rather old?
