Root Update

I wasn't able to boot into recovery since last night, and couldn't flash the file. I finally realized I had to fastboot unlock the bootloader again to get into recovery, flash the file, relock bootloader, and then run the RUU. This time it worked. The RUU flashed, and the phone is starting up now. I'm hoping everything else works from this point on! You have been a lifesaver, (well, a phone saver, but same thing!), thank you so much for your time, and ramjet73 for the file!
 
Awesome! Glad you got it! :)
S-off isn't too hard. After that it's smooth sailing! :smokingsomb::cool:
 
I used used RUU to get back to stock and run the update. Once it was installed I checked and confirmed that I had version 1.14 installed. I re-unlocked the bootloader and then re-installed harmonia. Once installed I check settings and it shows my phone went back to 1.13. What happened, how do I make the firmware update permanent?

The firmware version is indicated by the baseband level which should show as 1.09.00.0706 if it was updated by the OTA. The 1.14 versus 1.13 is the software level and the reason it shows as the lower number is probably because Harmonia was not rebuilt on the OTA patched version of the stock ROM.

Thank you for the reply and the useful information. I was going to reattempt to RUU but the program was showing the software on my phone was newer then the version packaged with the RUU (1.14.. vs 1.13..). This was new. So I suspected that it was something with the rom and that the firmware update was in fact successful and retained. The information you provided helped me confirm that the update is applied and working on my Harmonia install, thanks.
