I don't think the one we got from Belgium is the complete KK version. As you guys saw on the leak of the 25th April, the S4 Mini LTE will get the ND5, ehile the one we got was NE6. We just need to wait some more.. though the NE6 got many fixes. We just need an update on the interface.

Rooting

Hi,

I have installed the update over a rooted stock 4.2.2, now I am trying to root again.

I have tried flashing RootkitV1 which didnt work, and RootkitV2 which caused it to boot to a black screen, so I had to reflash the kitkat update to fix

I have tried the v2 on both cwm 6.0.4.6 and 6.0.4.8, and get the same black screen.

I would try the CF-Auto-Root but I am worried about causing a brick? I presume my bootloader is locked, so would it be safe to flash?

Thanks for any help!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] hicvb:

reflash with kitkat stock rom and root your phone with rootkit v2.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] :
I have sent Samsung Support an email about KK and stuff, and hopefully, they will reach me back.

I don't think CF-AutoRoot will brick your device. I didn't try it, but I doubt it will.

Thanks guys, I flashed CF-AutoRoot and its rooted !

Don't know why the rootkit v2 never worked for me, it seemed to create an incompatible kernal.

Do you mind rebooting and checking if the yellow text is there when there is "Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini GT-19195" during boot?

I just got a reply from samsung;

My message:

Hello,

Firstly, I would like to thank you for release the Android 4.4.2 update (I9195XXUCNE6). But, is this the actual KitKat update? It has many missing features and as I can see, all it brought was some minor updates and a major protection update.

I am asking you to please tell us something about the future of KK on the i9195. Will it consist of the S5 icons, updated weather widget, updated apps, Gear support and the KK/S5 User-interface?

Kind Regards,

Kurt

Their message:

Hello Mr. **,

Thank you for your email. Your customer reference number is ***.

In response to your query, I can confirm this is the Kitkat update. I would advise you to attempt the following which may rectify the issue:

• Have you checked to see if your device is already updated to the latest version?

You can find out by going to Apps/Settings/More/About Device/Software Update. If there are any available updates, this will begin to download them. We recommend that you do this over a stable Wi-Fi connection.

• Have you tried using KIES to update?

There are two versions of KIES available; the one you need depends on what version of Android you have. From the Home Screen select the Apps menu item > scroll left and then select Settings > select About Phone > scroll down and then you should see what Android version your device has. You can click this link to download the version of KIES that you require.

Once you have installed the necessary version of KIES, simply connect your device to your PC/Laptop with an official Samsung cable and you should be prompted to update your software.

In relation to the characteristic of the next update I would be unable to provide any information as nothing has yet been confirmed. I would advise you to regularly check our website as the details will be revealed here first.

Kind Regards,

**

Also its possible to mod it using the note3 settings app (works well and enables download booster) and s5 statusbar modding build.prop

You should be able to do it with Odin.

Better to do it manually: [TUTORIAL] Unlock external SD Card writing in KitKat
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Max Biaggi:
i've used s4 tutorials from this forum.

for note3 settings (simply change the correct apk in system/priv-app and set correct permissions)

for s5statusbar you need to change two parameters in build.prop (ro.product.name and ro.product.device in SM-N900S ) and reboot

to completely remove knox from the rom i have also used another tutorial just to know which apps to delete.

firstly i've used titanium backup, searched for "knox" apps and deleted it all, then "klms" then rebooted. then i've deleted some knox sata things from data folder just to be sure knox was completely removed.

phone is working really fine. i'll send u my titanium app list in pm so you can compare it with yours and safely delete knox and bloatware. later maybe we could create a thread about those things

for answer to one of my question myself :

A downgrade is really impossible with ODIN and Sammobile's firmwares ... caused bay the new fuc****g KNOX 2.0 on the new KK .

The only "easy" way for that is to flash a no-knox-bootloader ( NOT tested ! but work "in theory" )

- flash Stock XXUBNB3 deodex .zip ( by ladislav.heller , thank to him again and again ... ;) )

- flash impacted rom ( thank ! )

- flash all other firmwares like these one ( knox-removed!) ,that we can find on forums everywhere ...
