Another picture
are you flashing files for 4.4? If you were on 5.1 then you should try files for 5.1.
And forget about 4.4. for now. You need to flash 5.1 and only after your phone will boot, then look for guide to downgrade.
you many need to flash the stock recovery (from 5.1) first, as your bootloader appears to be LOCKED now. after then, try flashing the stock 5.1 files. if successful, then you can unlock again via sunshine, flash TWRP recovery, then try to upgrade to 6.0. I'm pretty certain you should not try to downgrade, as that tends to cause problems.
Thanks
Just I'm downloading 5.1

I have at&t LG Flex, rooted and than updated to kitkat, surprised was when it updated to Kikat and root was retained, I used all applications that require supersu and work like charm.
Follow this, If you did not upgraded root it with ioroot and don't unroot it, take OTA update and you will keep the root.
If you upgraded, downgrade it via lgflashtool method, root with ioroot and update ota and you will keep the root..Good Luck

What did you do before hand? Cuz you're literally the only person so far i think. I tried everything and even went back to jelly bean 3 times trying to retain root with different programs. It would always error out on the update screen

Basically what I did was I rooted on JB and when KK update came, I removed root from superSu "unroot", I tried to upgrade to Kikkat and failed, so I did lgflashtool (you directed me by the way) and flashed it to JB, rooted again and kept the root and superSu..tried update from menu and went through and kept the root.

I was unable to try it out last night, ever since upgrading to kit Kat i can no longer choose which mode to connect (usb only, mtp, etc) so after flashing back the problem followed me which prevented me from running ioroot successfully. Luckily i had ordered a new flex yesterday from AT&T after their service center confirmed something was borked during the update, it'll be here Monday. Can't do anything till then.

So far it's only available for AT&T so that's nothing to "upload". Without recovery for these phones there's no way to create roms from kit Kat source

Downgrade to 4.2.2 then root phone using ioroot then take the 4.4.2 update this is for att g flex only you should retain root

Now that we have root for 4.4, I'm planning to upgrade from 4.3 to 4.4, but I haven't come across any simple method to do it. Mazdamiata has a method to do it, but it requires downgrading to MJ5, which would be a huge inconvenience. My update fails at 27% even with all the original apps restored and unfrozen. I have Xposed installed and my device is rooted with Kingo. Any suggestions?
I'm with you! I sat down and wanted to upgrade to kit Kat but following those directions were not easy for me. I am now stuck on 4.3 until there is an easier way to get there. What stinks is there isn't even a YouTube video to show how to go back to mj5 and the upgrade
Isn't there any other solution to safely upgrade without reverting to MJ5?
here you go

Thanks, but it's not a simple method and has steps to install other components which increase the complexity.
Is the best way just to factory reset my device, retain the root and then try to upgrade?
Factory reset then upgrade to kit kat then root with towelroot

I've wondered if we undid whatever frozen apps ect then used the kingo unroot if we would get the ability to upgrade.
Kingo renamed some files and installed a few

thats exactly what im currently trying. i went into tibu, did a batch unfreeze, then used kingo to unroot. restarted and am now downloading the update. hopefully it will get me up to kitkat and let me root again with towelroot.
Let us know if it works then all I have to do is unfreeze the updater apo and unroot with kingo
Sent from my XT907 using XDA Free mobile app
nope didn't work... it would download, then when it tries to install the update, it stops at about 24%, reboots and gives an error saying update interrupted.
I tried manually doing it also by putting the update file on SD card and applying in recovery mode... it starts, errors, and wiped my data....
the only way seems to be the harder way heh

I recently updated to Android 4.4.4 on my Xperia Z1S and from then on, every time I take a picture, my camera just freezes and I have to lock and unlock in order to get out of the freeze. I haven't been able to take a picture since that time. Oh and btw, my phone is not rooted in any way.
Is there a fix for this? Or do I have to rollback to the previous version?

I am also experiencing this issue on my C6903, but not very ofter, would say hardly ever it occurs. Guess it is just application problem.

You are using a rom, its called stock.
Try forcing a repair using pccompanion.
Run it, choose software update and if it says you have the latest software click on the blue "Repair your device" in the dialog box.
This will wipe your phone but will repair the phone

Just wondering, has anyone managed to get lollipop installed on a UK XT1068
WITHOUT unlocking your boot loader? I have tried the Indian OTA, but it refuses to install in recovery mode. I don't really want to unlock by boot loader,as I still want to have my warranty.
Thanks for the help!

Without unlocking bootloader you can't downgrade to 4.4.4, but flashing another region version with same system version likely no problem
Yes you can, but you need to unlock bootloader

If you are just rooted and haven't flashed a custom recovery then you should be able to get the update. If you are using a custom recovery then you will probably receive the OTA, but you won't be able to update until you are on a stock recovery.
