There are many bugs in this build, i would not update. Camera doesn't work, won't mount an sd card, and the Wi-Fi will not turn on!

I am seeing wifi issue also will try the GPE radio if no good i will reflash to 4.4.2 stock

will it be safe to install on a at&t m8 converted to gpe ?

That's how I installed it. GPE conversion, received OTA this afternoon, installed, broke all of the things.
I was hoping to move away from .zips and manual installations after converting, and only use pushed OTAs.
Still looking for resolution. I doubt the devs didn't regression test, etc.

Mine is an unlocked HTC One with the RUU GPE conversion. I'm having the same problems, even after reflashing the RUU and reapplying the OTA.

hummm i haven't received any ota but i think i'm going to try it anyways or i won't sleep tonight lol.

Please post results if you use OTA method.
Sent from space.

I figured out the problem. I flashed the new RUU that graffix posted with 4.4.3. The Kernal in the OTA is not updating like it should, it stays on the kernal that was made in March. The new Kernal has a date of Thursday May 22nd. So for whatever reason, the OTA is not flashing the new Kernal, which is why all those things were broken. If you use the RUU update, it will flash the new kernal, and everything works as it should.
You'll know right off the bat at first boot. With the OTA, the boot animation hangs and it hangs on the home screen. With the RUU flash, everything is buttery smooth

so what you are saying is do not take the ota and download the one from graffix and flash it in recovery ?

I hate that feeling when you JUST finish updating your Nexus 5 phone to Android 4.4.3 and literally two minutes later an update to 4.4.4 gets released! UGH! Still waiting for LTE for Nexus 7.

What in the world Google... Something musta been a big time fail in the code for them to release a full update like this that quick...

Well people, the OTA doesn't look like it affected very much. I usually just flash whatever image from the factory image that I need because of the changes I make in the system but I just now decided for grins to flash the OTA and see if I would get any errors and I was pleasantly surprised to not see the "unexpected contents error." It happens, rarely, but it does happen. Running ElementalX kernel, busybox installed, modified calculator app in system/app, 4.4 sounds in system/media/audio/ui, modified mixer_paths.xml in system/etc, Z2 bionic and dalvik, running xposed and the OTA flashed with no errors! Woop Woop! Did have to flash the supersu zip in recovery. All good!

Whats wrong with you GOOGLE ? Why just Razorg ?

What is wrong with Google? Why is Deb being left out?
Sheesh... Feeling abandoned...

I don't understand why Deb is being left out either. Maybe we'll just jump into the new android version when it's announced at Google I/O.

Somehow I don't expect that'll be what happens.
Considering there had to be a 4.4.2_r2 for deb before, I suspect that whatever inspired that (which was Verizon compatibility) is the holdup now.

Does anyone have the OTA URL?

I hope they've included the driver for the Logitech Unifying receiver...

Can some one grab the OTA file name, URL, or the OTA itself and upload it?

Well, 4.4.4 does put us 2 releases behind now.
I can imagine a *good* developer working out a DRY unified patch (verizon & others) for 4.4.3 and 4.4.4. But, along comes management and says either (a) verizon does not accept, or (b) others like att/t-mobile/etc do not accept. A drama ensues and we have big delays.
Anyway, "4.4.2 really?" is the perfect question to *pound* on google during IO. lol

There's a theory going around that it's Verizon that is to blame for the delay, but maybe it's not the reason

[REQ] DUALBOOT KERNEL/SCRIPT/MENU OPTION FOR THE NOTE 4 (like Linaro)

It would be really awesome to have a DualBoot Note 4... so you can run for example a Note 4 LOLLIPOP ROM / Note 4 KITKAT ROM / NOTE 4 AOSP ROM or any other custom configuration/ROM.

I don't see the point of dual-booting multiple versions of Android. Now if we could have Android and Windows that would be cool.

A simple answer is to be able to try roms without having to make a backup , wipe and then restore if it's not right for you. It is more of a luxury than a necessity.

Potential in the future!?! I followed the link and setup my Note 4 for Dual Boot in less than 20 minutes. That includes downloading an extra rom! The future is now.

yeah T-Mobile Note 4 already has dualboot

I got cm12 installed as secondary with kitkat ROM installed as primary. I installed the dual boot patcher on cm12 and I try to select my primary ROM to reboot into it but it doesnt, it just keeps rebooting into cm12.
Any ideas?
I do like cm12 though, runs pretty good for being a beta still.

I've been using the dual boot patcher for about 2 weeks and all run smooth now

Yes, but who knows if this thing will ever see Marshmallow, but for at least the next year to year and a half, the vast majority of Android devices in the world will be running Lollipop, so I'm not terribly concerned about it.

If you're rooted, you'll need to wait for someone to make a flashable zip. You can't take an OTA.

No, it wouldnt. Formatting only wipes data and cache. Rooting modifies your system partition which is why the OTA is failing.

Holy crap is sammobile slow. You have to pay to get a decent speed. It limits it at 15kbs. Hopefully it will be done in a couple hours.

When you download the firmware, make sure you're using Odin 3.10.7. Unzip the file you downloaded (it's a .tar.md5 file in the zip). Then, in Odin, click on the "AP" button, select that .tar.md5 file, make sure the tablet is plugged in via USB, and flash away. It's that simple. Once you get the stock firmware flashed, you'll probably want to do a factory reset. Then the software update should go off without a hitch.

its doing its little thing after the flash. i noticed it still said custom android at the bottom when it got done. up next factory reset though. thanks again.

The status won't change until the newly flashed ROM boots up for the first time. Afterward, it should change back to official.

[Discussion] OTAs on Rooted Huawei/Honor phones- Confirmed

Saw many post from new users and senior members as well and most of the time there are lot of confusion on the OTA part, especially for the rooted phone. Few says it gets (I am one of them) and few says it doesn’t as rooting capabilities modifies the system boot.img and also we have unlocked bootloader so device wont get the OTAs. I have been using the Huawei/Honor phones for 2 years now and have been getting all the OTAs on rooted phone and confirmed the same many time but still there are lot of confusion and users thinks they wont get OTA on rooted phone.
Just confirming here that you will receive OTAs on rooted phone without any issues. This is 2nd update on my phone since rooted in past 2 months.

Instructions-
If you are rooted but then rolled back to stock recovery, just download the OTA and update.
If you are rooted with TWRP recovery, flash the stock recovery first and then download the OTA to update. (TWRP wont be able to update OTA)

My phone is with modified boot.img by magisk. It was just updated to B388 sucessfully without swithing back to stock boot.

It will remain intact. No data loss. Well Chris, i can confirm on the OTA part but you never know the unforeseen consequences. I mean can run into trouble sometimes as Huawei/Honor phones are prone to brick in seconds. I would say to not update in such scenarios.
