...and baterry life ? :p i know it's too early for to really judge ....

but when you use your KK for test ,you loose much baterry ? it melt away like "snow on the sun" ??? ......or it's correct ? :D

who have tested Antutu for fun ??? :D ....... there are ART ? fully working ??? :D

very very exciting this day !!!!!!! fabulous !!!!!! :victory:
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] :
Keep calm bro :)

Regarding the KitKat, the crashing seems odd. I am going to download the package and install it on my phone. I have Knox tripped. I don't understand what do they mean with the 'Black Version'... does it literally mean the colour of the phone?

I will report back if I have any errors.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] hatschiii74:
The main reason waiting for KitKat for me was the new mail app. For sure you can get it and install it manually on 4.2.2 (what I did). The mail app is much much faster and better... but if I install it manuially it's jus an app and not the native app used by the system
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Mitko:
Well I would like to mention that I took warranty sacrifice and flashed the KNOX bootloader with this new 4.4.2 KitKat firmware and surprisingly, the rom hasn't crashed in half a hour now.

I have come to the conclusion that the KNOX related files that I previously deleted from the package were the culprit behind this. Bravo, Samsung. Very clever!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Loulou-13:
ok ,ok ... :rolleyes: ( lol ! ;) )

Thank in advance for future feedback ;)

for me ,i hesitate to flash because i'm not sure at all that "RootkitV2" work ... and i absolutely need root ! :eek:
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] arco68:
Heh? Isn't that just the Gmail app?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Aronuser:
i guess the error most likely solely were caused from deleting the knox files
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] :
Similar.

If you really want that app that much, get the app you are currently using, and integrate the update into system, it will be like stock-app ;)

The reason why Samsung took time to build the 4.4.2 ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Aronuser:
I think there will be a workaround soon
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] hatschiii74:
No that's the new Kitkat mail app. The Icon from the mail app I have postet.

Here you see the description. On the left screen you see the Google mail app on the right screen (line 3, column 3) you see the native KitKat mail app

http://androidcentral.us/2014/01/download-android-4-4-kitkat-stock-apps-for-your-android/
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] :
I don't think it's worth it to wait just to keep knox off your phone, but it's your decision :)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] hatschiii74:
The problem is that yoyu can get the mail ap only with exchange functionality. The app was extracted from a kitkat system. There is additionaly the Exchange functionality you can also install.

Both together is working, but there are 2 issues if you do so:

1. It's not the native app the system is using (or I do not know how to update the system in this direction)

2. This workarround isn't 100%, especially Exchange support is ussing much much more power and let's the phone get hot. Whith the old mail app that is not the case

...so what I want is a ROM where the new app is the native app without these issues. I only want the offial rom, tried stock roms and don't like them.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Aronuser:
i thought removing knox caused errors in the new FW
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] :
that's true, i'm asking you why do you want to remove knox?

Anyways, it's up and running, no problems whatsoever!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Bilmoussaoui:
i've installed the upgrade using odin, everything is fine :D

but i have a question, my phone was rooted before, and now i came back to stock rom, removed the root and everyting, still i have the warranty or not?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] :
Depends, Go to Download mode and tell us what you see.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] :
Not much of a report; I just didn't find a single error/bug. :)

- The Apps drawer SS is a new way of displaying the apps.

- There are some settings a little more detailed.

- The new camera button on the lockscreen (SS before).

- The GPS Toggle change to Location.

- And obviously, the White status bar icons. :)

- Hmm.. seems you can't hide apps anymore from the drawer...

Press THANKS if I helped!

What about nfc? The issue that nfc won't turn on when you had cm installed before is gone?

EDIT !!!

what's the root method ? you have done a flash of CWM via Odin .....and tried the RootkitV2 ????????
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] yannis11:
Everything works fine from the first flash.first from cwm I format everything system/data/ internal SD,( just in case)then flash through Odin and again i reboot in download mode flash cwm then reboot into recovery and flash root kit v2 the method for root is same for 4.2.2 from arco68 thread,work for me.and finally i let the phone for the first boot .in the first boot the phone it's not so smooth and the response is slow but in the end everything works fine(including nfc) .the rest is well-known delete Samsung apps Knox hub..........and the phone begin to breath. For now am in stock kernel to see if there's any changes.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] ladislav.heller:
WiFi toggle problem: Flash the ROM twice.

ROOT method: CF-Auto-Root (use google [emoji4])
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] jfeelders:
CM11 (or Kitkat in general?) seems to have a problem with accessing apps on the SDcard. How about this behaviour in this new 4.4.2?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Loulou-13:
OK ! :good: thank again guys !

For sumary , 2 methods of root :

-CF-autoroot

-RootkitV2 (flash with CWM)

---------- Post added at 09:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:26 AM ----------

A stock firmware is suposed to be full stable and full fonctional ! ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] :
I can say that it's the new launcher, not completely, but it's there! I didn't install anything ;)

As I can see till now, the long wait was totally worth it. The overheating has been dramatically decreased; therefore the battery drain problem also has been fixed. Samsung did some great job right here. All that is bothering me is that the text in the lockscreen is a little bigger than the 4.2.2 and you can't hide apps. You can uninstall them directly from the drawer just like 2.3.6 and you can also disable them (I guess it's like freezing). The phone is much faster than it was and the System took pretty much the same memory as it had taken on 4.2.2. There isn't the career branding, only an app called 'Hello!', but i uninstalled it. There aren't any SD Card problems. I heavily recommend updating to 4.4.2.

New SS!

Press THANKS if I helped!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] MinorPro:
That's nice! So you installed the belgish ( I don't know) Version of 4.4.2 right? Can you change the language? I will install it then! :)

[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] 96DANGER96:
I had that problem, too.. You must wipe data, cache, and re-flash via odin, now all works fine!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] :
Surprisingly, the language was started from English (UK). But if it comes in a strange language, the 'language selection' is the first thing that shows up after you initially boot your phone, just like in 4.2.2 ;)

[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] :
The i9195 too if I have KitKat ;)

Then you have an NFC chip in your battery if you have i9195, or did you buy a non-NFC battery?

Not something you can notice.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] MinorPro:
Good question. I think when you install the belgium firmware on your phone and you experience some bugs, Google can't or won't update in your country yet because it is only available in Belgium.

Just a note for guys with KNOX 0x0:

Is there any way to root and avoid triggering the KNOX flag on KitKat?

I've installed KK yesterday and it's working perfectly so far.

SOT is about 1h30min and I've still 80% battery (wifi enabled, downloaded many apps, setting them up, few text messages..)

Here's the answer on the first q:
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Loulou-13:
........and you

REALLY

confirm that CWM 6.0.4.8 and RootKitV2

work fine

with this new firmware KK 4.4.2 ???? :eek:
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] yannis11:
The version of cwm that I have is 6.0.4.6 (work's fine for me ) and like I said in privius post the root kit v2 REALLY REALLY WORKS just fine for me. exept titanium that can't write in exSD and all of apps I think .but this is nothing to do with root (again i thing).
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Loulou-13:
thank you ! for confirmation ...:good:

but what's the différence between 6.0.4.6 and 6.0.4.8 ??? i don't find it everywhere here ...
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] djreed:
And what about WiFi?? I tried the double odin ROM installation...

In the second try i found on boot that there is another sound and another wallpapper than first install 4.4.2 :eek:

Can anyone post there how can i fix the WiFi (and the Secutiry tab in settings??)?

Greetings! :)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] yannis11:
The basis is same faster backup (don't need this ) plus I read (can't confirm ) that hard back button don't work- only soft button- so I stay in 6.0.4.6
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] ondoy1943:
i dumped my mega 6.3 in favor of the i9192 owing to the latter's dual-sim feature; obviously a bad move. the mega will get 4.4 but nowhere it to be found for i9192. samsung..unfair!!!!!

[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] XxM4tzexX:
yes but he didn't mention KK in his post. He is right, an update is coming, no word of KK :D

But I know what you mean, this is kinda strange that KK isnt listed for the S4 Mini. This fits to the updated list of various devices to be updated where the Mini isn't listed aswell....
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] llapao:
Glad that you know what I mean... 'cause this thread is called "Android KitKat 4.4.2 for S4 Mini Discussion thread" ;)

But puns aside, what I guess is that we will have the update to KK but on the 3rd quarter or so.

Yeah, in USA. But do you know how it is everywhere else? Like someone earlier said that it isn't available in Poland, do you have different information? Since Poland don't get 4.4, I'm thinking that all the users using international model won't get the update. I asked Samsung Finland, and they didn't know/want to tell anything would international S4 mini get the update..

thank all guys here !!! :good: ;)

i hope that the rom can't restore itself the default stock recovery at the next reboot ... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] XxM4tzexX:
Thats not he topic here. look on cmxlog.com since cwm got merged into cm.

And again, the recovery doesnt have anything to to with the system. It's a complete different partition. So flashing a recovery works of course. And instead of flashing the rootkit (which is basicly only supersu and busybox) just download latest supersu which is version 1.99 instead of 1.94 in rootkit.

The new firmware is still not listed on samsung-updates.com
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Nicolae-Daniel:

2. Flash the ROM with CP section,

3. After flash wipe data/cache,

4. Flash the ROM without Repartiton, with the AP section.

5. As You want - installed PhilZ recovery, and ROOT :) ( Installing the recovery will set KNOX warranty bit!!!)
