Cool. I just cast my vote. Since many of us who run custom roms use tapatalk and not the browser I'm sure I'm not the only one who had no idea it was there.

Everybody should vote on this. I'm really curious what the final outcome would be.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] fresnogamer:
Thanks mindmajick for the bump! I find the outcome interesting so far. I can't wait for more responses.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gregsarg:
No...I can't suggest what you will like best ...it's just not possible...

We all have our own tastes...

I for one use AOSP, and have no trouble with s-pen features to satisfy my needs..

My device has never responded to my liking running a bloated stock build....

That just simply isn't me...as I prefer a stripped down and fast acting build which I have...

Our devs have offered us more than a few quality substitutes for what our carriers force down our throats...

Many of which run just as well....IMHO

It's not a contest ...and folks can run what they like...as stable builds are abundant for us here...g

Rember the Kitkat update is for all phones because of the minimum ram usage. So I think a lot of phones will get the update maybe even older ones like galaxy s2 lol but ultimately it is up to phone companies.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] md1008:
Just like the galaxy nexus got the update too right? Don't hold your breath for s2 getting anything beyond 4.1.2. I was optimistic too until Google pulled the plug on the gnex
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] wase4711:
frankly, there is little chance of this phone getting 4.4 officially; its obvious that all phone mfgs want to try and force folks who want the latest and greatest OS, to buy whatever phone is new at the time, so they can further empty your pockets...

It will probably be on the Note 4 whenever that comes out next year..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] md1008:
Really impressed with HTC lately the one has gotten many updates plus I read that HTC already announced kit kat. Thinking of getting the "one" refurbished for zero down on T-Mobile. Plus the fact that google Released The GPE also helps...Samsung use to be good about updating but now they just want to cram features down our throat than update what we already have. Will probably stick with note tablets as all those features are really useful on a tablet especially for multi tasking
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] got heem:
will not hold my breath
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] numlauf:
Doubtful

I highly doubt 4.4 will come to note 2. Plus, in one year practically every one with a note 2 will be ready for the two year upgrade.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] brett91364:
Well this is kind of annoying... I'm using a T-Mobile S4 on the MetroPCS BYOD plan which is great... $55 all in (I have two lines).

The PROBLEM is while most manufacturers put their apps on the Google Play Store MetroPCS doesn't... all the MetroPCS apps (aka "bloatware" that come with a Metro phone aren't available anywhere.

This should be pretty simple, someone with a rooted phone could upload the apps. I really only want the the account management and visual voice mail apps.

I hope they fix this, any help in the mean time appreciated... the question is: WHERE CAN I GET THESE APPS?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Karakoram2:
Have you tried the metro app store, pretty sure it has that stuff.

There's a link to MyMetro (account management), post #3 and voicemail app is in metro store that was linked above.

FYI, I switched my two Metro S4s to TMO recently, but I was only able to get MyMetro to work on one of them beforehand. Hopefully goes better for you, but I tried calling them and they seemed to have no clue what the app is or how to get it working. One person said that it wasn't compatible with my phone or plan, the fact that it worked on one of them was irrelevant....customer service gotta love them.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ewingr:
I've gone through 3-4 different posts/guides that supposedly have links to the tar file to go back to UCDLK3. But in the links are broken.

I did go to Sammobile, and it only has a Kies version (I don't even know how to use that).

Can anyone point me to the .tar download?

[EDIT]

Never mind. I found my file. I thought I had it...but it wasn't where I expected.
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
Hello XDA users,

I am really proud to present to you one of the most interesting ROM called MIUI (Redefining Android)

Base ROM: This rom has been ported by patchrom using Stock based Sony firmware build 10.3.1.A.2.67 TW (Taiwan) Version (which is the 4.2.2 version) this means this ROM is very bugless and have a really great battery life (tested) and have Bravia 2, Xload, Walkman and Sony Album Xperia menu to select MTP or MSC and playstation certificate.

Recovery and Installer: I have implement aroma installer and also ported fully working dual recovery, 1. TWRP (by pressing down) and 2. CWM TOUCH (by pressing up) from Xperia Z which will know your phone as dogo or C5502 ( so you won't get status 7 problem any more ;) )

Kernel: I have added Doomkernel V19 on this rom for unlocked bootloaders but for locked bootloaders they need to flash stock 4.2.2 rom before flashing this.

MIUI Version: This rom has been ported from MIUI V4.6.6

Please note that GAAPS is NOT included, you may flash it manually AFTER booting the rom

Download GAAPS

For those who wnat LTE Please note (Only C5503) : after downloading and flashing the fix go to dialer and type: *#*#4636#*#* then go into Phone information, slide down and select Set preferred network type then chose LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) mode and you're all set ;)

What's working?:

Everything so far

What's not working?:

Didn't notice any major issues! Pleas kindly do tell me if you find anything not working EXCEPT ADB which is a known bug (USB is working flawlessly)

BUGS:

Please kindly tell me if any find out

ROM State:This ROM is released on 3.12.20 version, I'll do whatever it takes to bring a full working no bug rom, however it is really great already!

Credits:

ME! :D for porting it!

lpws521 for making all this happening by created a full working miui stock based on Xperia Z (If he didn't do it I might still have a long long way to make this working! So please feel free to rate his post)

I've trying for a FULL day to upload this, after more than 20 attempts! I couldn't :( I need some kind of resume-able upload service like mediafire which accept more than 500 MBs (It's actually 520 MBs)

If anyone knows any upload center with resume-able upload which accepts more than 520 MBs please kindly let me know,

Thanks :)

[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
Thanks for your replay:

mega has trebile speed, It is always says dropped connection!,

what is copy?

I couldn't upload directly to dropbox too, after 50-70% (for about 4 hours) it just says upload error! :(

I'm now using dropbox application to sync, if it get's currect then I might be able to put it in dev host too :)

stay tuned :D

EDIT: DONE!!!!!!!!!
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
Link download added at second post,

Please wipe your data manually before installing and also please choose Locked Bootloader even if you're on unlocked bootloader :)

Have fun and try to press power button continuously after installing this rom, this might give you the feeling you have some energy drink :D

Sorry guys, I have forgot to put the right jars, I have added a fix version, just flash it after you flash the main rom zip, thanks.
[Sony Xperia ZR] damithadka:
wow

Thanks for the great work

Hope to see more improvements ;)
[Sony Xperia ZR] shteren:
copy is yet another cloud service like dropbox and mega, you start with 15GB, you get 5GB extra if you get invited by another use like me :P here is a link, and every use you invite you get another 5GB, i already have 60GB for free, which is quite nice.

Sorry for delay and bootloop
[Sony Xperia ZR] damithadka:
Anyone tried this??

I bought ZR 1 month back and still not fed up with the stock ROM..

When I am finally fed up.. I am definitely gonna try this

I tried both Xperia and MIUI in my last S3.
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
new link added,

it is now stable :)

have fun :D
[Sony Xperia ZR] silvscorp:
this is definitely interesting. Always been a fan of MIUI. In the OP you mentioned all the stock sony apps such as walkman and album working, do you mean they are included in the rom or have to download separately? If included, does the MIUI music shortcut points to walkman or the MIUI music still?

Also, your title says UB/LB, since the rom doesn't have kernel, how can phone with locked bootloader flash this?
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
Sony apps included you can select whether you want it or not in aroma, miui album and music and video is always there and you can have both with no conflict, (lockscreen works with walkman perfectly)

This rom needs stock kernel, I didn't put any kernel but a doom kernel or any stock based kernel can be flash alongside this, locked bootloaders can't flash kernels that is why the rom is suite them, unlock bootloader do not need to flash kernel but still can flash their own stock based, (My bootloader is locked and havn't flashed any kernel by the time I'm writing this) this rom is NOT cm based so it won't work with cm kernels, also it doesn't have cm bugs like headset bug,

Hope to get all of your questiom ;)

Link not work:(
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
Sorry guys, dropbox blocked me for bandwidth reason and they ask me to buy some upgrade package, which I can't for can't having credit card or any online shopping card reasons, So I'm uploading it to copy for the moment and it will be done in about 4 hours from now on (my internet upload speed is as low as 32 KB per sec at it's best!!)

[Sony Xperia ZR] xenius9:
Bad/brocken archive(
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
I'm not really sure about 2nd mic working as I never have problems! (not sure what the fuss is all about :D) recording standalone audio and in video is pretty great and loud in my case, and in calls you can choose whether two mic noise suppression or mono mic noise suppression (there is a setting for that in miui)

and as the kernel and vendors (drivers you can say) is the one from stock If 2nd mic works in stock rom then it should work in all stock based rom including miui too ;)

well you guys should wait for this week release (friday) from miui as their new kitkat have bootloop (null pointer exception) for unknown reason. I've tried hard this week, no success. (the last week was booting perfectly)

the good news for Z series miui is they can now flash in locked bootloader with next week release.

EDIT: that PhoneWindowManager null pointer exception is not cause booting failure ... I get audio service problems,
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
good news, booted fine :) no problem at all, yet mass_storage FC!

EDIT: uploading package now, expect ETA more than 6 hours from now! :)

Also I'm making the camera button working that is much more important
[Sony Xperia ZR] damithadka:
hey

cool man..i'll be waiting ;)
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
Good news is, Camera key is working now :D now both 5502 and 5503 (LTE) are supported :)

Multi language package will be added for flashing ;)

Gaaps has been removed due to some back key home key disappear problems ... (you must download it manually and flash it once you have flashed and booted the rom successfully)

Currently uploading the rom ...
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
Rom updated Version 4.1.17 => http://d-h.st/wCw

Have fun ;)

C5503 USERS Be cautious: the version of 5503 is still on beta development and might not work, please let me know if it did work :)

Thanks :D

For those who want multi language, wait! I'm uploading the multi language rom right now ;)
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:

[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
anyone with 5503 tested this? LTE worked?

please if you have tested give feedback :)

thanks
[Sony Xperia ZR] xenius9:
I have 5503. No LTE in network menu. In multilang version camera button not work. in english version worked.

i use english version with apk`s from multilang version -all worked. adb bug present - change msc to mtp need reboot phone to work.

sorry for bad english.
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
No LTE? :( too bad will try to make it working in next version ;) ,

did you use adbd Insecure?

go to developers option in settings, turn on adb, then go to adbd Insecure and enable/disable Insecure adb,

that will make your adb to work,

about MSC and MTP I don't have any problems and could easily change between them when USB is not connected, and they will work as they should.
[Sony Xperia ZR] xenius9:
With doomkernel v19, adb working better. only 1 bug: after change msc to mtp sd-card not always mount. need manual mounting. after this all worked ok.

Adb on\off worked ok.(i delete unneeded scripts from install-recovery, ric killer, ctraltdel...) - i use stock adb in kernel.

With faux kernel\sound control obtained good rom.
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
Ok, so for next release I'll make an options for unlock bootloaders in Aroma, which flash doom v19 kernel ;)
[Sony Xperia ZR] nikhil18:
In trickster mod app set on boot is not working and is there any way to overclock in doomkernel
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
what is trickster mod app?

did you allow it's autostart?

you should alow auto start in Security -> Permissions -> Auto-Start Management for it to boot.

It's the feature of Miui to deny apps to auto start themselves because of their unwanted behavior, like free games with full ads which runs in background and do some background stuff for ads which make your phone to slow, you can deny their auto start to make your phone fast and smooth and also Stable! :D

about over clock, I don't know, I'm not sure, doomkernel is for unlocked bootloader and I did not unlock my phone's bootloader to test it, If I had unlocked my bootloader earlier I would have made some kernels for our phone and MIUI, but as I can't test them with locked BL and as I want my warranty And Bravia to work I won't unlock my bootloader, however I have found some thread about XReality with UB which is interested, if it works for UB I might consider unlocking my bootloader :D
[Sony Xperia ZR] xenius9:
i rebuild doomkernel19 - add new philz cwm recovery and twrp recovery(for zr device 1280*720 and with worked sd-card mounting)+add sony logo.

all worked

[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
I'm uploading a new version,

In next version I think I have solved the 5503 problems but still someone need to test it :)

about the camera button in next version solved ;)

About missing home button in lock screen or others it's a problem in global MIUI after 3.12.27 update which home and back button sometimes disappear :( hope it will be fixed in next version...

about Chinese in theme I think it is temporary and must be solve server side not client side.

Doomkernel stable, no bugs found within a week of use.

how about MultiLang 4.1.24 ? is the camera button working in that?

and did the kernel flashed in new package(4.1.24) at all?

Can 4.1.24 via OTA or just as a flash? Thanks
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
Download new version that I gave you here, flash it but press not to wipe data in aroma :)

I haven't make OTA packages for 2 reasons:

1. I can't upload it in Xiaomi server due to lack of my permission.

2. This rom is still developing.
[Sony Xperia ZR] stanley210:
Ok,thanks. I'll know how it works on the C5503 ;)
[Sony Xperia ZR] damithadka:
C5503

Couple of bugs i came across

1. If i anstall Doom kernel my WLAN is not working

2.No 4G - In aboutphone it shows as c5502

3. Touch recovery not available (with doom kernel)

Will let you know any further bugs i come across.

Hope you will develop the ROM for daily use
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
it is for my daily use, :D

1. if that's the case flash stock kernel and install recovery, then your WLAN might works,

2. it is very strange, you sure you have installed C5503? because when you install 5503 it must show you 5503 not 5502!! (as the build.prop is different!!) I will look into this one thanks for let me know ;)

3. that's the kernel bug not mine, I would be happy to make it myself if I had unlocked my bootloader.

please do.

EDIT: Found the problems with 5503!!! it was a very stupid mistake! it won't install 5503 at all :(

will make it right in the next package meanwhile I will post a fix for that ;)

EDIT: here's a fix, Flash it at your own risk as it has not been test before ... http://d-h.st/GrZ
