Humm seems exposed don't work on this ROM thought I could customize guess not anyone else?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
Ditto... There are some apps that I have to use aosp to log in because SwiftKey likes to put periods I love all over the place. That said, I love SwiftKey and never seem to have a problem with it jiving with roms.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
Exposed probably hasn't updated to 4.4 yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jay Evans:
Yep. Just did a back up of 4.4 no problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
So what version of rom manager are you using and you are using CWM 6.0.4.3?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cinco312:
It's not yet compatible with 4.4. The next update will be. There's also an unofficial Xposed floating around here that works with 4.4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bamdroid:
I'm using 11/18 with PA gapps 4.4 mini. I'm not experiencing any of the issues that's been mentioned. Google keyboard is fine, no issues with the battery either. The only thing I've noticed is when you take a screenshot, it's distorted in the animation, but fine otherwise. That's about it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
Thanks to all to responded ?. I'll test tomorrow with that setting change in wifi and see what happens. I have a feeling this will help. And no to the reboot. Issue is going on its 2nd day actually. Luckily I have been on wifi pretty much the whole time.

v5.5.3.0 and 6.0.4.3. I flashed 11 coming from cm10.2 .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Argent36:
Other than the Bluetooth stack crashing whenever its connected to my Jeep's radio - this is a nice ROM - surely to get better with every update!

Thanks so much for the hard work!

EDIT: One thing that I'm having problems finding (if it even exists) is the use dock audio settings? trying to figure out if I can turn that off so it stops trying to play audio out my dock when I'm plugged in.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pelo88:
HA! I had to Google this one, cuz I thought Flashify was just an app extension to forward webpage requests with Adobe Flash embedded to the default browser (which hopefully has the ability to play Flash). Which wouldn't work on 4.4 as no Adobe Flash binary or apk will install properly (unlike Jelly Bean which can use FireFox and the ICS version of Flash).

This is the app you were referring to: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgollner.flashify

And this is the only one I knew of named that: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nightshadelabs.anotherbrowser&hl=en

Must say I am in love with this ROM.

It has been so very long since I used CyanogenMod as I've been cursed with the Droid 2 Global (which sucked for CM support), followed by the Droid 3 which did run CM alright with a few GPS issues, then the SGS 3 which I've been rocking with Synergy with multi window and all that fanciness. But with Synergy development dead for the SGS 3 coupled with how little I use those extra features as well as my desire to support Steve and his endeavor of taking the newly minted CyanogenMod corporation to new heights I couldn't resist taking the plunge!

I used the latest full PA Google Apps package, which oddly doesn't include Chrome but that's an easy install from the Play store.

EVERYTHING WORKS. GPS, Bluetooth (and AD2P), front and back camera, LED customizations, phone audio quality (somehow I think it's better than Synergy!), Wifi, 4G LTE data, EVERYTHING. I'm using whatever kernel it came with for now without customizing the governor or overclocking and the battery life is as good if not better than Synergy was.

Daily Driver For Sure!

I just wish it came with a fully working version of Focal, tho I'm sure all Nemesis stuff will be merged as CM 11 gets more and more better and fleshed out. The camera it has now from PA is fine for my need, tho.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
Yea, I'm shocked to see this thing work so well 0day... that's so rare for roms when there's framework changes/updates. Not sure it's my daily driver yet for aesthetic reasons and features that will be added to later builds, but it's smooth as a baby's ass and definitely CAN be my daily driver, that's for sure.

Has anyone tested some of the new features? http://www.android.com/versions/kit-kat-4-4/

Many that I see are more app related (hangouts and search), than the framework, but I'm interested to hear how battery life fairs with music streamers like me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] steve97ta:
Been running it the past few days and only problem I've had is Bluetooth and sending picture texts the ones I send using Hangouts come out squished? But I can manage sending it through the normal messaging. Def. DD for me and I'm liking the new Kitkat
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
Weird... I've been using Hangouts for sms and haven't had any issues; I've even tested with some long, parsed messages. I actually like having one app for all my messaging.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] steve97ta:
yeah it did it last night sending MMS, not enough to leave the rom though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
Weird. I sent some MMS last night and I recall a squiggle to the image as it loaded, but I *believe* they were received in correct format; no one said the image was messed up, so it's an assumption.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
I have been trying to get the google cloud print to work; without success so far.

My observation since we've all been playing with 4.4 is that google is really becoming more and more proprietary. I like the google products but however it is starting to feel a little constricting.

You are right, this rom is remarkable for this stage of development! I cannot wait for the bells and whistles!:silly:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WillisD:
I ran the 11/20 build and all was great other than the email app wouldn't connect to the exchange server, any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
I don't see an 11/20 build on this thread. Must be KitKang?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Flowah:
"Couldn't record audio. Another application might be using the microphone"

That's what happens when I try to use Shazam. Everything else seems to be working though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WillisD:
It was sorry:)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
FWIW, I'm on the 11/18 build and exchange works with TouchdownHD. I don't use the stock app for exchange, so I can't speak to if that app is messed up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
oh, no worries... I got all excited and went and checked the OP! :fingers-crossed:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ripdoozer:
Has anyone tried KitKang? I am curious, but this build is so solid, I don't want to leave. I checked out the thread for KK and it seems like there are more bugs over there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ProtheusIRC:
Flashing this with TWRP, I get an error and flashing failed. Something about error flashing update binary?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenbrownstone:
Gotta flash with latest cwm....twrp doesnt work on any 4:4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ProtheusIRC:
Will CWM Touch work? Also, I suppose my TWRP backups won't work with CWM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenbrownstone:
Yep touch is good but the most recent.....no backups don't work from twrp....I would flash cwm and then backup...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kidhudi:
As stated in the OP the rom MUST be flashed with the latest CWM .

@ sspencer10. the 4.4 camera is fixed in the kang version any chance of us getting our hands on it?

thanks bro
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] steve97ta:
anyone not running stock kernel?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joedajoester:
I edited the media_profiles.xml and the highest bitrate i can get out of my phone is 20mbps. The hx camera mod for the international phone does 30 mbps, plus other tweaks. If you flash that on our phone, you get stuck at the gs3 boot screen( at least on aosp?) Anyone know an alternative?

Also, is there a way to get video stabilization working?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
I planned on testing BMS... several people reported using us with this rom and had no issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ProtheusIRC:
Just flashed and played around with it a bit. Maybe its because I REALLY like TouchWiz but I flashed back to stock. I really like that "Ok Google" thing though. Can I get that on stock?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] steve97ta:
Yeah that's what I'm running currently since yesterday. Solid kernel, I have the 3000 mah battery and hit a little over 4hrs of screen on time at 26% remaining. Roughly 11 hrs on the battery itself. This is with texts, calls and plenty of social nets. Think if I stayed off and worked today it would have gone way past that lol

Just running the kernel as it comes BTW no tweaking
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
The undervolting built in the kernel helps... I also use asswax for my gov and ROW for my I/O and I get some serious battery life. I'm hoping to see even better on 4.4, since I mostly stream music and the mediaserver usage is supposedly reduced drastically in 4.4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] steve97ta:
yeah it does help i like the built in UV. I might try that combo thanks for the info!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
I've used both BMS and KT; both work well. My phone seems to like KT better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
Yes you can! Go to the themes and apps section of this forum. Verizon Samsung Galaxy SIII, you will find a thread with all the 4.4 apks. Download the three apks for the google launcher (the OP explains it all!) I have it running on JellyBeans 4.1.2 perfectly! Here's the link.

Can anyone recommend asswax, or smartmax for better battery savings?

Also, does anyones battery graph seem to be showing a slight increase in percent? The phone wasnt charging, but the graph has a slope that is going up. Is anyone else experiencing this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WhiteBoy997:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] steve97ta:
Your phone is in a wake lock it looks like it could be WIFI

Go into your Wifi Advanced Settings and uncheck "Scanning always available" should turn off your wifi so it doesn't scan constantly. Mine looked similar and this def. helped
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigbear6708:
So I saw some kanged gapps with a dialer that included Google search.. I though that was a standard kitkat feature.. was I wrong, is that not included??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1xmattx1:
That was already unchecked, I also changed "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" from (Always) to (Never). "Wi-Fi optimization" is also checked by default.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joedajoester:
I usually go down to 70, or 80% after an hour of screen on time on wifi and chrome browsing. But i still dont know how much battery on kit kat i can get, so im still testing. Get better battery stats plus for kitkat from the xda thread and see how much battery drain there is per hour.

Ya kinda ninja'd me with the apology, accepted. Just got other thing going. I got a 11/19 I haven't even tried out yet, should have working 4.4 cam. Probably have to wipe data. I will post 11/19 after I verify its all good. Then I want to add lock screen shortcuts in my next build
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sspencer10:
11/19 is up. 4.4 camera is fixed. I will be working on another build sometime soon. Btw, I had to flash a regular pa gapps first before i flashed the kanged version to avoid phone fc's

Just a heads up...All CM11 versions I've tried between the 19th and 20th builds, if portable hotspot is enabled it ends up erroring out, then it breaks wifi. If anyone is having better luck with this let me know! I have yet to try it on a clean flash, which could be my problem.

Edit: I was told in another thread that a clean flash will solve this problem. Gonna clean flash the 11/21 in this thread in a little bit to try it out

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jackdog89:
I have the same problem with es file explorer. The external sd card shows up, but when I try to go into it I get an "invalid path" error. I'm assuming that the app needs to be updated for kit kat. I have a few other apps that weren't compatible, GSam battery monitor for one.

FYI, the file manager included in the rom works fine though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rootofalldroid:
What I finally did was format sd card with cwm to ext3 works now for me

I am using the kernel this rom comes with (well the version from the 18th, I haven't updated yet) and haven't messed at all with any of the settings any it's perfect. Great battery life, snappy response, no fc's or errors that aren't related to the app itself not being 4.4 friendly (like Toyota's Entune, but who cares Bluetooth works so perfectly I'll just run Pandora on my phone myself!). I missed the popup browser from TouchWiz ROMs like Synergy but I found this app which MORE than replaces it: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gpc.myweb.hinet.net.PopupWeb&hl=en

Anyone know if there's a workaround to getting numbers of notifications on app shortcuts? I used to see a little 3 on my facebook icon if there were 3 unread notifications, etc. I don't see that with the stock launcher and wasn't sure if that was a planned feature or not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] steve97ta:
Should always clean flash before reporting problems

Clean flashed and phone does state charging under the date on lockscreen for me

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mds96:
Good to know! It seems like, for right now anyway, that clean flashing every build is the best way to go, to ensure that most everything will work as it should. I must say the 21st build is awesome, adds some things I've been missing!

Go into your Wifi Advanced Settings and uncheck "Scanning always available" should turn off your wifi so it doesn't scan constantly.

Then turn off locations services when you aren't using it

In the op can you tell people which gapps and link to use or did I miss it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
Two biggest drains on the battery are the GPS and WIFI scanning. Scanning *usually* doesn't eat up data, though, because you're not actually connecting to the networks, just seeing if they're out there..

If you're at idle on wifi, your phone will still use data; the only time it uses 0 data is when you're in airplane mode. Between Google sync and apps that auto-update in the background, the phone is always connected to the internet. 19mb is a lot for background data, but I don't know what apps you have installed and how they're configured to run in the background. Facebook and news apps can eat up a ton of data as they pre-cache.

An easy solution is to go to 'Data Usage' under settings and see what apps/processes are using data.

It's not a user application doing this though. It's the ROM. I know about the Data Usage tab. Everything looks normal there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
Did you use a CM account and do you have background reporting turned on? 19mb is a ton of background reporting, but it's a possibility.

If no to both, then a logcat should give you an idea of what's asking for the connection and how long it's using it. I've used a logcat before to figure out what was using data and found it was a background reporting tool.
