Does this work with the Canadian S4? I'm on stock telus rooted 4.2.2 and want to do an upgrade without wipe. I know.... Dirty flash not everyone's cup of tea. What steps need to be taken to put this on my phone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Jamison904:
Very awesome bro! Great work my friend.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Octane70:
Yes, this has been ported for Canadian S4. A full wipe is a must coming from a touchwiz rom or from any rom actually.

Hey guys, I'm on a GPE rom now (4.3) and at&t just pushed a KitKat 4.4 update to my phone. Where the heck is that stored? And yes, I do have titanium backup.

I havent made up my mind yet on which 4.4 custom rom to choose, but i dont want the downloaded update to kill my root etc.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Zizco:
This ROM is amazing so far. I have better LTE connection in places I didn't before. Probably due to the new modem or a placebo effect
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Octane70:
Unfortunately, Art does not work, it will boot loop.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] nyydynasty:
I tried flashing the modem from the 1st link via odin and it fails. Odin detects the phone, I put the modem.bin file in the 'phone' section (as method 2 describes), I removed the autoreboot option and flashed. I have to be doing something wrong if others have gotten it to work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Octane70:
Which carrier and boot-loader are you on? I recommend using your carrier specific 4.3 modem. MK6 is for SGH-I337M Canadian.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] finnmacool:
I actually had that same problem...until I re-checked auto reboot then I was good to go. Not saying that you won't have issues (you shouldn't) but thats how I got mine to work.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Octane70:
I did not include it with the version. I will on the next. You can always pull it out of the newest IOKP rom.

Did you format your internal storage when you flashed the rom?

No I did not. I will try and pull it from IOKP. Thanks for the rapid response!

hmmm... I've tried and although Odin shows success when I boot up and check my settings the baseband is unchanged...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Octane70:
It can be kind of a pain, took me three flashes to get it to go. Best thing to do is un-check auto-reboot, once it is finished flashing remove the cable then hold down the power button for around 10 seconds for it to reboot. If you already haven't tried.

Started running yesterday a.m.

Im on US ATT.

No force closes, no reception problems.

Was excited to see the inframous version of 4.4....i miss my V bootup screen though ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] nyydynasty:
Everything is running great. only bug I've seen is that the phone reboots after about 10 minutes of being connected to Bluetooth. Otherwise it's flawless.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Octane70:
We will see for the next version

What are you doing when it is rebooting?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] nyydynasty:
actually nothing. Its autoconnects to my car's BT. The phone is in my pocket when it reboots. No phone calls, no music streaming...nothing.

My car will display when it loses the BT connection...i'll take my phone out of my pocket at that time and its in the middle of booting up. I have about a 10 minute drive home from the train station and it always reboots as I get home, which is why i know its about 10 minutes after it connections to BT. Its almost clock work.

edit: my phone has never rebooted like this until i tried the 4.4 ROM's. It must be something with the KK bluetooth drivers
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Octane70:
So you are experiencing this is on other KK roms as well? Try connecting Bluetooth to another source (If you have one) and see if the reboots still happens.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] nyydynasty:
yeah, the only difference is with this ROM, it actually reboots. The other KK roms just disconnect BT without a reboot.

I'll try a different source to see if it follows the same pattern.

either way, this was definitely not a complaint. It was more of an FYI in case other people experience the same behavior.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] nyydynasty:
i'm going to see about getting a logcat if that helps at all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] infogeick:
Ringing and Notification Volume are the same

Hey. This ROM runs good. Tethering Works (YEAHHH). Some issues include ebay and amazon app or other apps not responding all the time and pausing on "LOADING". Most times it functions normally after reboot. Also some of my apps that I used to use are incompatible with this OS and won't show up in the playstore (My Digicel App). Luckily i had it backed up somewhere and I installed it but its a bit buggy but somewhat workable. Not all apps will be restored with Titanium Backup. I was using 6.1.0. I got whatsapp restored so I'm good.

There is one thing that I don't like about KitKat so far because I'm coming from a TW 4.3 ROM. I need a mod to separate ringing volume from notification volume because I don't want to be notified at the same volume that my phone is ringing. This can be quite annoying.

Also how can I add Wanam exposed to work with this ROM or any other Xposed Framework to mod Battery % and make other system wide changes...?

Try gravitybox: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2554049
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] nyydynasty:
Octane, here's a logcat (using the catlog app). I started recording when it connected to my car's BT and i left it until it rebooted (about 6 minutes later). If you go thru the logs, you'll see that about 5 minutes in, it disconnected BT but didnt restart. About a minute later, it rebooted.

If the logs are incomplete, let me know and I'll get another one tomorrow.

Thanks! Hope this helps!

Didnt add much, mostly visual, check the OP for changlog. Can try a dirty flash, but if you run into any problems wipe it.

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] nyydynasty:
Octane, just updating you on the BT issue that I posted about. I found it interesting -- I got a new car today and my BT doesnt cause my phone to reboot at all. So it must have been an incompatibility issue between KK and my old car's BT.

anyway, its all good now. This rom is smooth!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] SCWells72:
I'm considering picking up a 32GB Black Note 10.1 2014 today using Best Buy's Cyber Monday deal. I currently have an iPad 3 and a Nook HD+ 32GB with CM10.2. Since switching from an iPhone 5 to a Galaxy S4, the iPad 3 pretty much sits on my nightstand and I use the HD+ for everything. For the price, it's a nice device, but it can be frustratingly slow as a daily use device.

I've been hoping for the Nexus 10 2 to be released, but I'm becoming increasingly doubtful that's going to happen anytime soon. That's where the Note 10.1 comes in...it's basically the same display as the Nexus 10 (at least in terms of size and resolution) and has great hardware specs. $500 is a little steep for an Android tablet in my opinion, but I should be able to get $250-350 for my iPad 3 which really knocks down the incremental cost to me.

I'm not a huge fan of Touch Wiz vs. the stock Android experience, but it's not enough to push me away from a device. I am, however, concerned about the reports of lag on what should be one of the fastest devices on the market. I have zero interest in installing a custom ROM on my next tablet as I've already spent too much time dealing with the various quirks of custom ROMs going on previous tablets (Nook Color, Touchpad, and now Nook HD+). I want a rock solid, smooth stock experience. I've seen some folks say that with all the patches applied, the lag is basically gone. It's also worth mentioning that I immediately install Nova Launcher Prime as my launcher, so I wouldn't be using the stock launcher.

Also, I've read that the power port on this thing is on the bottom when in landscape orientation?! How does that work with something like the Poetic Slimline case? I have the Poetic for my HD+ (and the Apple Smart Cover for my iPad) and pretty much keep them standing up while they're plugged in.

Anyway, the owner reviews I've seen everywhere (Amazon, Best Buy, etc.) are quite positive, but I wanted to check in with this community to ask for real-life opinions, the good and the bad, before pulling the trigger.

Thanks!

UPDATE: I just pulled the trigger. I'll pick it up on the way home tonight and post my impressions once I get it set up to my tastes.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] aezero14:
I pulled trigger last saturday. Been thinking about ipad air, note 10.1, nexus 10 2 for long long time, and I really really love the note!

I was worried about bloat wares and lag as well as galaxy s4 owner I experience both in gs4. However, I don't have any issue with neither in note 10.1. Yes there r few bloat wares but not as much as gs 4 and most are quiet useful. altho I only used it for 3 days I never had issue with lag or stuttering. Also handwriting recognition speed and accuracy is Just off the chart. In more of type but now I tend to write with Stylus all the time.

my tablet exp include ipad 2/4, nexus 7 2012. But this is best tablet So far.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] ¿Will-it-Blend?:
I've got the 32GB white version, and let me tell you, this thing flies through everything I throw at it. I have had 3 games open in the background while watching YouTube in multiview along with the S-Note app and browsing the internet and there was no lag. The 8-core processor and 3 gigs of ram destroy everything I throw at. When you first power it up, you'll be hit with 3 updates that will improve stability, performance and also add the Android 4.3 multiuser feature. Trust me, you won't regret getting this tablet, especially with its added S-pen functionality. I no longer have to use paper for anything! I'm using the stock touchwiz launcher, but of course you can install another one. And in landscape mode the power button is at the top. I'm using this case for mine:

http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Samsung-...qid=1386018274&sr=8-2&keywords=note+2014+case

NOTE: As of now not many games in the play store have been optimized to take advantage of the power of this device. Games run smoothly, just not a full graphics or full resolution on some games. Something to keep in mind if you play a lot of games.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] SCWells72:
Thanks for the info, both of you. As for my concern, it's the placement of the power charging port that concerns me, not the power button. Since it's on the bottom in landscape orientation, doesn't that preclude having the tablet propped up on a stand like in the main picture for that case and plugged in at the same time?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] nor500:
I am also thinking of buying 32GB Black Note 10.1 2014. To only things which makes me to hesitate is the chrome trim along the edges. Isn't that part so much prone to scratches? Is that plastic or aluminium? Won't the chrome paint peel off as time passes?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] quser1:
The sides are plastic, I would think in a case would be fine, but without a case and tossed around it might damage with hard use. Wished they would have used aluminum like Apple for the price they charge but that shows scratches over time but only dents if dropped like the one my daughter uses :)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] alexbush:
I've had a 32GB version for around 3 weeks and am really pleased with it. Replaced Touchwiz with Apex launcher immediately and have had a couple of launcher crashes but nothing major - considering going to Nova as people speak highly of it.

Lag: it's a totally subjective topic but I don't notice it at all. Certainly nothing that irritates me. Not a big gamer however.

The power socket is on the 'bottom' but either buy an angled USB cable or use the device upside down.

Great advantages are: (1) the handwriting recognition is fantastic - I have reasonably good cursive writing and it rarely makes a mistake (2) multi-window for notes (LectureNotes in my case) and email (Touchdown) or for email and browser (Chrome).

Most of the Samsung bloatware is a waste of space, including the various pop-ups you can invoke with the s-pen. My wife is, however, still mystified about how I keep changing the TV channel without touching the remote (Watchon). Installing a different launcher stops the intensely annoying 'My Magazine' from popping up.

I'd like to remove this Samsung stuff but I'm not going to root until the current rash of firmware updates dries up.Once rooted I can make more apps available in multi-window (very pleased that TD and LN worked straight away)

My one niggle is the position of the home/menu/back buttons ('bottom' centre in landscape mode). On my old Tab 8.9 the soft buttons were bottom left which made them much easier to access with a thumb. I usually hold the Note upside down in landscape mode as having the buttons top centre is easier IMHO. In portrait mode they are under my right thumb which is perfect for me

The Poetic case has all the right cutouts for the Note but the hinge is on the 'bottom' edge not the top. If you want to use it the right way up in landscape mode you will be folding the cover towards you and under rather than over the top and back. If you want to prop the Note at a shallow angle for typing it will be 'upside down' but that's not a problem for me. The reason is presumably to stop the magnetic clasp on the case interfering with the home button. The 'wake on open'/'sleep on close' features of the case work perfectly and no interference with the digitizer so far.

Most annoyed that as a UK user I had to leave the country to buy a 32GB model and that the firmware updates reach us so slowly. Still Samsung's business model is all about encouraging you to dump your phone/tablet for the latest model rather than customer support (as I found out with the Tab 8.9) - buyer beware!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] SCWells72:
Well, I ended up returning it this morning. Overall it's a really nice piece of hardware, but there were a few things that bothered me about it:

1. This is purely personal, but I think a 10" tablet is bigger than what I'm wanting. Obviously I've had the iPad 3 for a while, but as I said, I've found myself using the Nook HD+ almost exclusively. As a result, the Note 10.1 felt HUGE in my hands for the way I use a tablet! I think I'm going to refine my search to include only 8-9" tablets now.

2. The placement of the hardware buttons was driving me crazy! When I held the device in landscape, it was really awkward to reach down for the buttons when I needed them, and when I held the device in portrait, I was constantly pressing either the Back or Menu buttons depending on how I held it. Additionally, when held in portrait, (intentional!) access to the buttons was even more awkward.

3. My concern about the placement of the USB charging port was legit. I basically have to lay the tablet flat to charge it, and that's pretty much the opposite of what I've always done with my previous tablets which were propped up in their stands/cases while charging.

4. Even after all the updates were applied, some services/apps disabled, and Nova Launcher installed as the default, it still seemed to lag a bit occasionally. In fact, a few times it became completely unresponsive for a number of seconds before I could resume usage. That definitely shouldn't happen on hardware of this caliber.

All in all, I couldn't keep a $500+ purchase with these concerns. I really wanted to because I thought that S Pen and the multi-window stuff was quite neat, but after sleeping on it I just did a factory reset and returned it.

I'll keep looking...in a perfect world I wish the Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 hardware was matched to an AOSP ROM. Maybe that's what the Google Nexus 10 2 will be after all, or maybe someone else will fill that particular niche soon.

Thanks again for the info!
