4.1.2 is the newest stock. All the current D4 ROMs except Eclipse are 4.2.2. You don't need to do anything more than install a ROM in a slot via safestrap.

Awesome, ty

Any advantage to go to 4.2.2 from 4.1.2 (Stock). Also Rogers question for flashing

I'm on 4.1.2 currently - Stock - But haven't received the OTA update yet. (My carrier hasn't pushed it yet, sounds like its still a month away)
Is it worth unlocking the bootloader, putting a custom recovery on and flashing a 4.2.2 rom? (Android Revolution as I want the stock experience) Just for the updates 4.2.2 brings?
I've used 4.2.2 on other phones I have (Xperia ZL Stock and Nexus 4 running PA 3.5) so I'm aware of what the stock upgrades are, but what does 4.2.2 bring to the HTC One over 4.1.2? Any improvements?
I want to try Android Revolution but have been hesitant on doing so - I have a Rogers Canada version of the HTC One LTE (Same as AT&T). Am I able to flash International roms like Android Revolution on my phone and maintain LTE?
I am S-ON, but I understand Most roms still use the Stock Kernel correct? So how would I go from 4.1.2 Stock rom to 4.2.2 Android Revolution as far as flashing? Do I need flash the boot.img first? (Doing it with S-ON is what I'm implying, yes I know there are S-OFF methods currently)

[Q] Upgrading to 4.4

I was wondering the steps that you need to go through to be able to update from 4.3 to 4.4? I have a ton with samsung but not quite sure for HTC. I am currently running the badboy rom without S-OFF. Can I just flash badboy 4.4 over 4.3 or?
Thanks,

[Q] Safestrap on stock 4.4.2 At&t

Hi!
I recently updated to the official 4.4.2 on my AT&T i537. Is there a way to install safestrap on this rom?
By installing safestrap id like to test installing a custom kit kat rom based on any kit kat kernel from the i9295 model.

There is a version of SafeStrap that will work on 4.4.2, but I believe it is only able to install to your stock slot, for some reason there are issues creating a new ROM slot.
As far as the Kit Kat ROMs you mentioned, all the i9295 4.4.2 ROMs are based on AOSP or CM with a custom kernel so you wouldn't be able to use them anyways; the i9295 is still on 4.2.2, there is no 4.4.2 kernel for it. You might be able to install a 4.4.2 ROM meant for the i337 though. Since 4.4.2 is so new for the i537 there hasn't been a lot of development or discussion about using SafeStrap with it.

Anyone have a rooted stock 4.4 verizon ROM?

I cannot find a stock rooted or debloated stock ROM for my moto X.... Pre-rooted please. Thanks
