[Firmware][4.4.2] NE4/NE6/NF2 Recovery Flashable Firmware

The following packages will flash the base 4.4.2 firmware to your device. This can be used to update to the latest build, or in the event that you need to reflash it for whatever reason. The following partitions will be flashed:

aboot - AP Bootloader
NON-HLOS - Modem/Baseband
rpm - Resource and Power Management
sbl2 - Secondary Bootloader 2
sbl3 - Secondary Bootloader 3
tz - Trust Zone


This will NOT flash the system, cache, recovery or boot (kernel) partitions, so it will preserve your current Rom, Recovery and Kernel. There is no requirement that you be on a certain build prior to flashing this, though I will not make any guarantees you will not encounter some issues if making a large jump in versions, such as going from 4.0.4 or 4.1.1 straight to 4.4.2. It should be fine, but I'm just not making any promises.

As with everything you use here on XDA, you use this at your own risk. I would not release this if I felt it were unsafe, but things do go wrong, even with fully tested and vetted projects.

In the spirit of full disclosure, before flashing, understand that as of right now, the firmware packages below are UNTESTED. I do not own an I747 and am unable to test on my own. I do not believe any harm will result though. Once the flash is initiated, it will check the firmware files for any corruption using the sha1 checksum. If it fails any of these checks the flash will abort without actually flashing anything.

Make sure you use the one intended for your device only. Each is the latest available for the model and carrier the firmware is for. Let me know if you have any questions or problems.


REMEMBER!!! Once you update, there is no going back! You cannot flash older firmware, so once you flash to 4.4.2, that is the only firmware you can flash from now on!




I hope these prove useful for some of you! Good Luck!
