I can't find a way to root my S4 Active with the new 4.3 update

Has anyone figured this out yet? Everything I try will not allow me to root. I have tried GeoHot, Kingo, etc.

Checked there too. Can't find anything that works. I really need to root it to recover some files that were accidentally deleted I desperately need. I can't use the software to recover them if it's not rooted.

Hey what ROM are you using? I'm sick of Samsungs terrible TouchWiz.
I have an s4 active too.

None right now. That ATT update to 4.3 messed everyone up. I haven't tried to root since then and apparently there is no way to root the recent update yet. At least not that I have found.

shite. I haven't rooted or anything yet, since all the good roms have ignored the Active.

Is this the part where I bring up my iPhone 5 and my Numbers and Pages app and that I always have access to them there, via iCloud/iWorks on my desktop and my iPad?
No?
Okay, my bad....

Not sure what you are getting at?
There are tons of cloud services for Android too. I just didn't upload these files to Dropbox when I should have so it's my fault.

Yea, the active is a niche device with not much of a developer community.. Only reason why I wouldn't buy it.

It has nothing to do with the active as much as the recent update that rolled out to all S4s from what I have read.

Use adb to flash back to an earlier build, then root
Edit: You will have to download the earlier build for you phone and flash each individual file through adb
