flshtool or PC companion?

[bigbossa]

Hi all want to get latest stock KitKat 4.4.4 to start my experience with XZ will move on to custom recovery/Roms later
Should I use flashtool or PCcompanion?
I have so far rooted using Towelroot ...but I think Towelroot will no longer work after flashing 4.4.4

taking this very slowly so as not to screw anything up straight away...I'm used to flashing Galaxy S2/S3 in my sleep

Flash it with flashtool for cleaner installation. But backup your data.
To root there is a guide in general section for how to root on locked bootloader.

If your device rooted use this https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ackup&pcampaignid=APPU_36seVI2WDerjywPQ-4KYCg

If not so root it with towelroot app and use it

But don't select the system apps (red highlighted) in the app
