You can add screens, you just have to keep at least one thing on each one or else it will revert back to just the main home screen. I have 3 set up with widgets/apps...it took me a bit to figure it out...Im a nova guy, still not sure how i feel about the launcher. I will most likely end up back on nova unless they allow some customization in the near future...If i wanted to be stuck with one icon pack/design i would buy a iphone...lol

If you don't have too many icons to change on the home screens check out icon changer on the home screen. Let's you change individual icons. Only works for icons on home screen or dock obviously but not a bad alternative.

I hate being that guy, but unfortunately... I read through the whole thread and I can't find a single thing that I havent tried that is making kitkat work for me.

I've went back to G2, flashed the modem and firmware and then reflashed CWM 6.0.4.3

Still, not working at all. Continues to give me the error. I went into the updater-script and deleted the lines... still nothing. None of this is working unfortunately.

EDIT: I was finally able to make it work. Don't know how. Must have tried everything I don't know how many times.

Is anyone having any issues with external sd cards and beta 4? Beta 3 worked fine for me. Clean installed Beta 4 tonight and now my external sd will only let me read and not write any data to it. I've tried flashing twice now and I get the same result. Any ideas?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jaxwithanx:
the part that is pissing me off is that it's dumb it automatically moves your widgets around for you. it basically makes it impossible to have a blank main screen with only widgets on the other screens. i've been using nova forever myself but i'm pretty sure the old builds of android didn't MAKE you carry a shortcut or widget on your main screen in order to keep widgets on others.

This ROM is really smooth so far. From what I'm seeing is that this ROM is almost like pure AOSP it doesn't really have a lot of options right now for example getting battery percentage instead of bar, power widgets, Exedra.

Search this thread for Google now and your answer will be within the first 3 results....

You probably left the Google keyboard enabled which causes a massive drain. Disable it in settings-->apps. I'll have to get a FAQ up but I have other things to do first. Again, searching this thread for drain resulted in the first result having that answer (it'll probably be the second result now since this post contains it). You guys have to try to find some of these known answers without adding clutter.

Great ROM So Far! Switched from TWRP to CM to flash (Could not flash w/ TWRP - failed all day even after format etc).

Did not need to format system when flashing - did of course clear cache, dalvic and factory reset (Came from Hyperdrive RL16)

Can't wait for future updates - GOOD WORK!

Hmmmm after catching up on this thread this morning, I'm glad i stayed with Beta 3. My sd card is working perfect. Everything is working perfect for me aside from front camera.

As of now i am at 1 day 9 hours and 46 min with 16 hours screen time (with 20% left) on my zerolemon. I'll take that on a beta build any day!! I am just running the stock kernel by the way, and swiftkey instead of google keyboard and just regular greenify since xposed isn't working yet...

Cant wait til these issues get ironed out. If this performs like this in beta, its going to be even more amazing once the kinks are worked out!!

Has anyone tried the new Nova beta2.3 with this ROM yet? I installed the apk last night and there were no new features included in it that i could see? I do have my paid nova prime installed as well...would that mess up the install of a free beta? The version said 2.3 beta but there was no new icon pack, and none of the said features that i read in the article...trying to figure that out today as i am really bored of the google launcher already.

Be more specific. What does it say when you try to flash the ROM? Are you on the recommended recovery?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MJPollard:

Search until you cannot find an answer. I saw something about deleting lines as well. Search "delete lines" in this thread.

I'll also mention it again with this post, it's beta = iron out the bugs first then add features later. Read the thread peeps

Do you have one of these bootloaders?

"I747UCDLK3"

"I747UCDMG2"

"I747MVLDLK4"

"I747MVLDMF1"

"I747MUMBLK3"

"I747MUMBLL1"

If not, it won't let you flash unless you remove those checks from the script. That would be at your own risk, though.

Have you ever edited your phone's buildprop file to d2att (ro.product.device = & ro.build.product=) ???

I had to change those 2 fields from d2can to d2att way back when i first started flashing, as no ROMS would flash for me using d2can. I have the same bootloader as you though and i have flashed each one of these builds except beta 4 with no problems. Its worth a try...get Buildprop editor in the Playstore...simple and easy to use...edit those 2 fields and then save it...flash again.

I've tried with Titanium, which does not work. It goes through the motions but when I open the hangouts app or messaging nothing is there. It's got to be something in 4.4 that is different. For what it's worth Titanium will restore call logs as well as wifi access points just fine.

On a side note relating to my issues with Beta 4 and sd cards...Titanium shows the external SD as not writable as well - I can back up to internal storage but not external. This is not present with Beta 3.

Photospheres will not work on this device, It is only a Nexus option.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hectormcesar:
Photosphere worked on my i747M but under TW 4.1.1 ROM, and the photosphere .apk was ported from SGS4. So shouldn't be working on CM's?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dstruct2k:
When CM11 is even close to ready, yes, Photosphere will work. Probably through Focal, not Camera. For now, be happy that we've got 4.4 at all!

For those of you having issues restoring SMS, it's because the new SMS provider system only allows the "registered" SMS app to modify the SMS database, and only one app can be "registered" at a time. The AirDroid guys seem to have found a way around this, as have a few backup/restore apps, but it'll take time for everyone to update their apps. In the meantime, use one of the apps mentioned above as working. This might mean restoring your previous nandroid backup, making an SMS backup with the appropriate app, and then returning to 4.4 (via flash or nandroid) and restoring the SMS backup.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] studjuice:
It was working through the normal camera app on CM 10.2 yesterday when I used it so it definitely works on our phones. Just gotta wait for more things to be fixed.

Small Problem with Hangup

Hi

Thanks for putting this ROM together! Its been a great way to experience the 4.4.

I am on an i747 SGS3 AT&T and was previously using CM 10.2.

I notice a small issue with regards to hanging up a phone call with the Beta 3. The in-call screen stays active even after attempting to hang up the call. When it is a simple 1 to 1 call, its annoying but the in-call screen eventually dismisses. When I receive a 'call-waiting' call while I am already on a call... I can answer the new call... but have no way to return to the prior call.

Does anyone else experience this kind of problem?

Thanks again!

To be honest, I've had this similar issue on all AOSP builds since they've been released and since I've owned my S3. I believe it's just a bug with the camera driver.
