I need help rooting my VZW S4. I am on 4.4.2. My baseband version is I545VRUFNK1. I have downloaded towel root from the official website and I always get "This phone isn't supported." I tried the Samsung code but it always times out or takes very long.

Any suggestions?

Towelroot won`t work on Nk1. You need to flash to nc5 in order for towelroot to work, & then re-flash nk1. It`s all explained very nicely in this guide . . .
