Someone on XDA, the person who originally discovered they put the old TZ partition back, is going to check this update's TZ partition and see if they plugged the unlock hole. We should know at some point in the near future.

Did you purposely say must read and then make the text invisible??
Posted 10 July 2014 - 09:06 AM
It's not invisible. If there's viewing problems then it's a theme issue that should be taken up with the resident theme guy.

It's a bug fix so yes. But it won't install over 182. You have to use the instructions to get to stock 183 first.

Any advantage over 182.46? I'm rooted and unlocked already
If you've been having issues with Bluetooth on the first KK OTA and reverted back, then this release might be the one you need. So far, I haven't had any issues with it. I did with the first OTA and it required a factory reset, but even after that, after a while, bluetooth audio would start to skip and drop out at times.
So far, this seems to be holding up pretty well.

Won't help you. You need to FXZ to 183 using the process outlined above. You won't lose data.

I'm considering selling it so factory reset is acceptable is what I meant to say.Won't help you. You need to FXZ to 183 using the process outlined above. You won't lose data.

No big deal either way. You can flash FULL on 183 and save a step. Then install this OTA and be done.

Alright, the unlock party is over. Confirmed that this build is no longer exploitable for unlock. If you take this while locked you will lose your ability to unlock. You've all been warned and I will not deal with the outcome of people taking this update and then wishing they could unlock. Downgrading won't work so don't even bother.

OK, towelroot isnt working for me. Just hangs after it turns yellow. Gonna try some tricks and see if i can get it going.

That's unfortunate. ibolski had it work for him earlier. So it should, in theory, work.

Makes me wonder if my having an unlocked bootloader allowed Towelroot to root my phone? I wouldn't think so, but you never know.

No. He's unlocked, as well. You FXZ'd back to stock before updating to the OTA and then towel rooting, right?

That's unlikely to work since the update will nuke root and if it's like the last update it'll simply fail to install. What I AM wondering, though, is there's been 3 versions of towel root. ibolski, what version are you using? I didn't keep 1 and 2 around. I've only got 3 kicking around.
