Hi bro, i am in same situation like u, Towelroot rooted & Unlocked bootloader , running on 4.4.2. I too got a update in pc companion without any build version, but unlike you my phone gets properly detected in pc companion in the first place. If you decide to go ahead with the update, relock your bootloader first or else after updating you phone will go into a bootloop.
