Just use the mj5 restore as long as your not on official kitkat. If your on official kitkat then bestbuy is your only option.

No problem. Don't know why I said anything about the official kitkat when you clearly stated that safe strap was gone. Lol

I've wiped out before a long time ago by just hitting swipe to reset and also the format next to the swipe. (Back in the noob safe strap days)

Man I freaked out back then lol

lol I was freaking out a little too! This is the first time I have used safestrap, all the other devices that I have owned previously have had twrp/cwm so I was kind of lost at what to do next.
