Can't install CM11 on Dev VZ S5

[A1Barrett]

I'm rooted and unlocked running custom ROM TW 4.4.4 with Koontz kernel using TWRP and for the life of me I can't get CM11 installed.

I'm using the KLTEVZW version and the recommended GAPPS. I'm stumped. Any ideas?

i would be sure to follow the instructions.. is there a aosp kernel you should use or do you use the stock tw kernel?

I'm using Koontz TW Kernel currently. But the CM zip file should contain the new CM Kernel. ?

I am getting this message when it fails, 'this package is for device KLTEVZW, this device is KLTE'. So I guess I'm flashing the wrong zip. But my phone is an Verizon S5 developer model.....confused?

which cm11 rom are you flashing? from verizon s5 original development section?

 

[A1Barrett]

Yes, from Ablinoman887 and official cm 11, KLTEVZW. I did flash the KLTE version and it didn't fail but it bootlooped. However I did flash fusion 4.4.4 for KLTEVZW and its working great.

A1Barrett- How did you flash this? ODIN v3.09 doesnt seem to like it, it just errors out after awhile.

 

[A1Barrett]

Neodawg- I flashed using the TWRP that bkuschel recommended 2 posts up.

Right, but how did you flash it? With ODIN? or use TWRP to flash it? The link only provides a .img file and if I tar it ODIN wont flash it, not sure if I am doing something wrong with tarring it or if the img isnt setup to be flashed by ODIN.

Thanks, for your help

Flash the new twrp using the old twrp. Use the zip. Twrp-kt.all-in-one.zip

[A1Barrett]

lol twrp could always flash zips/recoveries on unlocked bootloaders

Hmm, suppose so, never really thought about it, I came from a Motorola phone last time and not a Dev device either, so this whole ODIN, unlocked thing is new to me. Either way *facepalm*....hahaha

So it looks like this is only working for the dev version of the verizon GS5? Or at least that's what this page says (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2794674)

Guess i'm SOL?
