I wanna thank you for the early firmware link and guidance for these update process. I successfully installed the KitKat update after failed during ota and adb sideload method.
                            To anyone who is rooted and messed/modified the system with xposed/adaway/buildprop etc it is advised to download whole KitKat fota file and do a manual installation like Tomazz said. Hats off.
