I have a 6503 which is currently running cyanogenmod. What is the best way to get this latest stock ROM with root? Do I first have to flash an old stock ROM and gain root and then flash this new one? Any suggestions?

That's pretty much what you need to do... do you have a stock band?

What do you mean with stock band? It's an unbranded german C6053.

I still have my old backup of my TA.
Can I not use this guide? Or is it already outdated?
So I thought I could maybe directly flash 10.4.1.B.0.101.
Then unlock my bootloader and flash old kernel from MEOW-kernel_v1.09.20-odin.zip and supersu and dual recovery. Then reflash 10.4.1.B.0.101.
Then restore TA backup.

Should this work?

Sometimes I hate Autocorrect... I meant NAND (backup)... Do you have a backup of a stock rom image? If so, you can simply restore that and move forward...

Yes, has any North American C6506 user received this yet? So far, I've seen nothing...
Nothing for C6502 and C6506 users :(
Only C6503 users received the update
Nothing by now :(

Still no love for C6506 :( ..... PC or OTA..... other ZL's always seem to get it waaaay quicker :S
Yeap no love for us :(
That's weird my C6506 updated OTA like over a week ago to 569. Not real happy though as it killed MMS again on T-Mobile LTE. I have to turn LTE off to recieve or send MMS messages. Just got another Album update today OTA as well. I'm in San Diego.

Wonder if that's an APN issue... I haven't had problems with that on either 569 or on 101... (running 101 on top of 569 baseband...)

of course, that will change with whatever version of firmware you've flashed... (right now my phone thinks it's a 6503 instead of a 6506...)

Exactly. I'm sure that he has flashed another firmware. No update for Generic AR (1271-0327), Personal AR or Claro AR Cust Nrs
