I would, but a lack of sd card is a deal breaker for me. Otherwise, it is a nice phone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shawndotting:
I am a curious. Being that its the same kit Kat. Can I do a dirty flash.....
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sswb27:
Possible just do a backup first in case of boot loops. Just wipe cache and format system in mount's and storage, flash my build and flash gapps. Don't wipe data.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] :
my buddy is trying to flash this rom on his s3 and it keeps failing he has twrp and when he flashes it it says "failed"
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] scott7175:
It will not work with twrp its latest cwm only right now
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] :
Actually TWRP just got updated to 2.6.3.1 which supports KitKat and I used it to flash it, and it works.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] silverton:
He needs to open GooManager and update his recovery.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kingston73:
So the newest twrp definitely works for flashing this?

What modem are people using with this? Md5 or one of the new TW 4.3 ones?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] neotoky:
Worked for me too using TWRP 2.6.3.1.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sswb27:
Good to know the latest twrp work's I'll update the op with instructions.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bentheexo:
Does this include the ability to boot off the MJC bootloader?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] :
By the way, the mute function is working for me, don't know why it's a bug. But, the sliding on the AOSP keyboard does crash it. Google keyboard works perfectly fine and does not drain battery
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Kamau54:
Has anyone used any camera with this, and how has your experience been with it? I discovered late that the last 4.3/4.4 rom I used had my pictures looking washed out look to them in indoor settings, like the contrast was off. I used 3 different camera apps, including the stock camera, and they all had the same look to them.

How about music players, specifically PowerAmp? Had any problems with it/them?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] scott7175:
Well **** I guess I better update my recovery as well

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sswb27:
Not to sure about that, But i did see t-mobile LTE apn's in the rom.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] witor19:
Uhmmmm thought this rom was for the LTE version. Since that's the one I'm running it with. First impressions, some apps don't work, like expected. Battery is same S the previous rom I used. Btw is it just me or i can't use camera to save pictures on SD card. Also whenever I listen my voice mails in speaker mode. A static noise shows up that is hard to turn off unless I pull the battery. Does anyone have that issue?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] CooLoL1999:
I tried to use the Front Camera but every time I try to take a shot, it reboots my device (Its probably coz I'm ugly, LOL) Anybody having the same problem?

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] skuidkid:
Anyone else having issues with internal storage on this ROM?

When going to the gallery... only my external sdcard photos show up.

I even tried checking for my internal storage with a file manager and it would give me an error.

I flashed back to me previous ROM , and I was able to view my internal storage files again.

I would really love to keep running this ROM, but that's a deal breaker for me at the moment.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] anil2653:
I think your previous rom was 4.1

Now you can transfer all required files in one folder named 0 which will be available there because all 4.2 and above will be using this as base

And you can reflash the rom and start enjoying
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sipher26:
That's one of the bugs in 4.4 kitkat

Pictures only look's degraded when there's a low light scenario like any other rom I've been on including stock. And the only music player I use is google music so I don't know about PowerAmp or Apollo.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Kamau54:
Thanks. The reason I asked is because pictures & music are deal breakers for me when it comes to a rom. I was just wondering if anyone had had any positive or negative experience with them before I dive in head first. Gotta say though, it does look promising.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mryounghc:
make sure its not just your lens needs cleaning. i have blamed ROMS for taking crappy picture a couple times before when it was just due to a greasy lens. id give that a shot, especially since every camera app gives the same result
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sswb27:
Front facing camera is crashing the phone when taking a picture tho. Not sure if thats a deal breaker for you.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] neotoky:
Looks like they added a buttons menu under settings. Also when charging phone, the green charged light shows up when the phone is at 90% instead of 100%. This was also on the previous build. I don't know if that's intentional.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] joseyamil7:
Hello I just deleted the camera apk and installed this one i attached below, at least to me is working fine front facing and regular photos. The problem i am facing is in the sms app every time i send a text it appears two time on my screen it just send one message like it should but the message appears two times on my screen like i send it two times, not a big deal but sometimes its hard to keep up with the sms cuz all of your double messages on screen. Anyway thanks for this rom keep up the good work, hope the camera works good. Any way to fix the sms problem?? Thanks

I am on t999L...I am using L7 broadband I think that's the word...had issues with getting data but flashed back my modem and voila. .loving KitKat. It will not brick your phone trying...may take a while if coming from 4.1.2.... But ROM is gr8
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] JustZaphod:
I just recently Purchased a T-Mobile Galaxy S3 LTE T999L

Now im sure this has been answered many times before, but I cant seem to find an answer..

When ever I flash a Rom for my device, when I plug my it in via USB to my PC, the charge light comes on, and stays on..

My computer doesnt recognize the device, no mention of anything in the Device Manager within Windows

When I remove the USB cable, the Charge light remains on..

BTW, MTP is enabled, as well as USB Debugging..

Im sorry if this has been asked before.. I couldnt find anything related to it..

I was hoping maybe someone could point me in the right direction and I can do the rest from there..

Thanx so much in advance
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ultrairon:
have u tried a different cable i had that issue i plugged my phone into a different cable and a different port in the computer fixed it for me
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] JustZaphod:
I've used the Stock Cable, and several others.. All with the same result..

The Rom otherwise works as usual..

Edit..

When I get the chance Ill try it on another PC..

It works flawlessly with the Stock Rom..

I only flashed because the Battery life sucked ass
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sswb27:
I'm guessing your using windows, Did you install the drivers for your device?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] JustZaphod:
Im using Generic drivers at the moment..

It doesnt look like a Driver problem to me though..

Windows 8.1 doesnt even see it in the Device Manager period..

Perhaps im missing something

Could you direct me to the proper drivers?

Also... Im getting some Media error or FC..

I cant access my 64 gig micro SD card.. It sees the files on it, but it wont let me access them

Its Showing as full

Edit 2: I do have the current Samsung drivers, but I dont think they will work with 4.4.

When I upgraded my nexus I had to update my drivers..So im not sure if i have the right ones
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sipher26:
my kitkat 4.4 works fine in windows 7 no problems
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] JustZaphod:
What GAPPs are you using?

Im using the Paranoid Android GAPPs..

Im thinking it maybe windows 8.. not sure yet..

Im still having trouble with saving to my 64 gig micro sd card..

Its formatted as fat32.. Could that be the problem? It works fine under stock though
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shawndotting:

It has been reported. It won't send out the message twice. We even tried the sms apk from the previous build and it still occurs.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sswb27:
Just added bug to op to avoid confusion. I have been using hangouts for sms without any problems, I would suggest using that.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sswb27:
Just clarifying.

Did you try a different usb port.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] JustZaphod:
My PC has 14 USB ports..

Used every single one..

I have no issue with the stock Rom, this only happens when I use a Custom Rom..

Im used to mostly Nexus Devices.. Although this is almost the same, it feels like a different beast
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sswb27:
Never seen this a issue before, except the usual drivers, cable and usb ports.

Have you searched the q&A thread yet? If you don't find nothing, start a thread for it and someone else like DocHoliday77 or some other dev with more knowledge then me can help.

Could I put in a request to get Google Wallet NFC Tap-to-pay working in this rom? With 4.4, Android allows Secure Element emulation (my secure element is bricked due to previous owner). I tried this on the previous rom from Jamie and when I tried to tap-to-pay, nothing would happen (NFC and Android beam enabled and tested working).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sswb27:
So what your saying is your secure element is bricked and android 4.4 has a workaround for this?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ahorner:
Yes, here is some information about SE emulation in 4.4 KitKat:

Check out this commit, it looks like you may only need to add this one permission to get it working.

At the very moment I dont have time to look in detail..

I think im missing a step or 2, and or doing something wrong..

As long as its working, its cool.. Its running stock with a few tweaks I made..

before I start flashing again, I think I should take some time and read before I flash myself into a Hard Brick..

Im just so used to Nexus devices, they flash so easy with little to no trouble.. The problems i've had are mainly rookie mistakes..

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sswb27:
I was gonna ask you to find the commit for that, nice job sir.:good:

I will cherry pick that commit for the next build and look into the screen recording, sounds interesting. I will probably release it tomorrow, No promises tho.

Update: Just looked at that commit for Enable NFC host-based card emulation and it say's it was merged November 19. It should already be in my builds.

Update2: Just seen it's for htc dlx. I'm wondering if i can make some changes to make this work for our device.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] neotoky:
Disable the google keyboard and install another keyboard from play store until it's fixed again.

I found a fix for the front facing camera bug from the att forums. You have to uninstall or delete the camera2.apk and gallery2.apk from /system/app and add the new gallery2.apk. Then you have to change the permissions of the apk to rw- r-- r-- and reboot. I tested and it works.
