Request for help - Safestrap upgrade for new ROMs



Hi all,

I've been reading a fair bit, but I'm still not quite certain what the best path is for me with my device.

Current state: I did the rollback from 4.5.2 to 13.3.2.8_user_328003120. I installed Safestrap 3.75 and GGOW's excellent Nexus v1.0.1.

Kindle ROM is sitting in STOCK slot, and Nexus 1.0.1 is in Slot 1. It is rooted. I have not installed the OTA block, but the device is in airplane mode.

I have no data that I'm interested in preserving.

What I'd like to do is get the device to a point where I can install GGOW's newer version of Nexus ROM, and/or the CM series of ROMs. The tablet is used primarily for gaming, and some of the newer games won't run on the older version of Nexus ROM anymore.

SO - it seems to me that I have to go to a newer version of Safestrap (v4) to make this happen. Is this so? If that is so, what's the correct upgrade/migration path to make this happen? Again - I'm not worried about losing all of my data, but I would like to avoid brick, and (ideally), it would be nice to have good recovery options for the future.

Thanks for any help you can provide me!
