I agree
I agree....tried TWRP 2.7.0.0 with no luck, philb, too. I guess Samsung just wants to be more like Apple...doesn't want people messing with their stuff. But I am confident one of y'all will figure something out.:good:

I downloaded the zip, but when I went into stock recovery, I couldn't find it.

The way I did it
I downloaded the mk3-nd8 zip file. Copied it to the external SD card. Renamed it to update.zip. Went in to stock recovery. Install from external card. Takes about 5-7 minutes.

You have to have an external SD. Flash the tar in Odin if you can't get ahold of one-http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2738533
Still having issues connecting to LTE and staying on it, what the hell could it be?

It would be much easier for ppl to help you if you explain what steps you have already taken,if any, instead of just saying "it doesn't work".

I wiped and restored the phone to factory settings, updated the prl and updated my profile. And a few posts back I posted a screen from the ##data# menu that seemed a little off and I changed it to what I thought it needed to be and no change in service.

You said before "staying on lte". Could it be that you just have a poor lte signal. That's most likely the case if it keeps flashing on and off for you.
Edit: Also try ##72786# from your dialer. That will reset your data service.

For example at work right now I am getting anywhere from 90-100 as far as signal check pro is reporting, I never had this issue on 4.3.

i rooted my SIII 4.3 and i flash the file but i got error package.zip (status 7)
You can't flash it through a custom recovery
You have to be on "stock,unmodified mk3" as it says in the op. That means no root and no custom recovery.

Downloaded and installed, having trouble
Hey guys, I used to have a custom rom and custom recovery (MOAR and TWRP), and I wanted this update, so I flashed the stock Sprint S3 recovery and the stock 4.3 rom, and when I finished flashing the 4.4 posted here I got the deadly forever-glowing sammy logo, so my phone won't boot. Better yet, I'm pretty sure it's impossible right now to revert to previous versions b/c of the new bootloader... Does anyone know what I did wrong and how I can get my phone back? :crying:

Also, just pulled my battery and tried to get into recovery, but instead it sends me to download mode saying, "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.", and Kies won't recognize my phone

Worked like a charm, thank you SO much
Dialing ##72786# didn't seem to do anything still having trouble connecting, I have to toggle airplane mode to force it on.

I take no responsibility for your actions if you flash this.
Requirements:
1) Be on stock, odexed, unmodified MK3 rom
2) May or may not work by flashing through custom recovery, otherwise flash with stock recovery
Thanks bilgerryan for the filename16Test 1, 4.4 rom doesn't boot. Faith not lost however as this happened back on 4.3...
Also a note...if you find any ND8 files of mine online, please do not link to them as they may or may not break your phone until I've thoroughly tested and posted links myself
So if you decide to flash them...do so at your own risk :silly:15Ok guys, tests have come back from the lab (haha) but it looks like if you want the ND8 rom to boot, you need the ND8 firmware, mainly the bootloader.
So until I can provide a flashable for the firmware, I'd suggest to flash the ND8 tar provided in the Android dev section.
I will be releasing the rom within the next day, followed by a deknoxed version (Knox apps removed) and a full ND8 firmware flashable.
Sucks, but we gotta do what we gotta do.
Make sure after you flash the firmware to NEVER attempt to flash a stock tar < ND8, or flash firmware in any other form with version < ND8.
ND8 stock tar: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2738533
To get root back, simply ODIN flash a custom recovery after flashing the stock tar and then the recovery will install root the first time you boot into it.
:thumbup:12Not too much of a huge difference. KK is a lot more smooth and better on RAM!
