For some reason my version says mi9 instead of mj5. I completed all steps except step 10 as I wanted to at least get back to nb4. Any idea on what may have happened???

I was asked "forced" to update last night and lost my root. I was wondering if there was any way to get back to MI9?? THANKS

Where is this thread?? And is it up to date??

Once you're on a new build its impossible to downgrade because the bootloader is locked. So sorry to say you're stuck. The builds ending with MJ5, and NB4 are android 4.3 jellybean and aren't bad at all! The 4.4 NC2, and MLG have quirks.

The restore to MJ5 thread is here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2559715

MI9 is Odin flashable and available here http://www.mediafire.com/?jmypf8ggtxu1a61
It's only good if you're still on MI9.

There is no restore method for any 4.4 versions. Just some modified NC2 or MLG roms available.
