Official release must be near.. hopefully a kernel source and system dump as well. This will give us lucky MDK users an even better AOSP rom I assume.
Well, I can confirm downgrading is possible (well, the boot.img, recovery.img, cache, and system partitions anyways the counter in aboot will remain at 6). I downgraded back to 4.3 and re-rooted because I was having some errors with booting a 4.4.2 prerooted system.
So, dumb questions.... how exactly does the process go for trying this? I understand risk is there just want to make sure I don't 100% chance screw it up.
Download tar file. Download Odin 3.09. Backup data on your phone. I placed everything on my 64 GB microSD card and removed it from the phone (paranoid). Place phone in Odin/download mode. Use Odin to flash firmware. Enjoy!
OK... That's not exact, but it's close!

Is this safe for anyone running MK2? I'm guessing since it doesn't trip Knox it should work fine, right?
EDIT: Balled up and did it, Knox went just fine, setting phone up now. I'll play with it over the next few hours and let you guys know how it goes, but so far so good. And fyi, Wallet let me enable touch to pay as soon as I installed it. \o/

Back up recommendation?
Ty. I had an idea, but I've learned following the instruction even if you feel dumb asking = worth it! So, I just brought my S4 SCH-1545 back to stock (mk2) using the Verizon repair software thingy, and of course I am not rooted now, and soo the question is what is a good non root requiring backup that will do what I need it to do? (minimize risk of flashing that new leak)
update. I done did it!

Possible? Maybe. Over my head though. I've never rooted my S4. Sorry.
