Neo Plus (I9301l) seems to use the same processor as I9300 (Samsung Exynos 4 Quad 4412 ) + is a GSM phone but dual-sim

Good thing is: it have 4.4.2 rom already! Check in Samfirmware, on the "Firmware database"
[Galaxy S III General] JustArchi:
Yep, if Samsung releases KitKat for I9300I or I9305, we'll definitely rebase it.

As for now, we're dealing with what we have.

If you want to know the actual status of our port, this summarizes it:

:D. https://github.com/JustArchi/SGS3-KitKat-Port/commits/master
[Galaxy S III General] coto39:
It's already done!!! Check samfirmware! (I've added an image on my previous post) :D

It seems the only problems are: the aditional 512mb and the dual-sim thing, but I guess it should be easier to port from there! Good luck guys! You made my day with this! :)
[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
Nice work to all of you guys! Awesome!

So, if i take this: https://github.com/JustArchi/SGS3-KitKat-Port/tree/master/out

Zip it and flash it, it'll boot?

[Galaxy S III General] JustArchi:
It looks like bootloop at the moment, but kernel boots properly.

If you want to contribute, yes, you can download it and try to help us. I can give you access to the repo if you want.
[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
That would be awesome. But i cant start helping right now..its 02:46 (Germany) too late to do this.

I really want to contribute to this awesome project!

Also it would be a good idea to rebase to I9300I now before you put too much work in the note2 port.

I see you enabled the logcat record. It would be a good idea to activate adb on boot. You can use DDMS to watch a live logcat on boot.

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9300 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S III General] JustArchi:
Good idea. I'm finishing download right now.

Or not. Ramdisk differs too much, porting from i9301I won't be a good idea, at least imho. N7100 looks better.

[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
Hmm, i believe in your words.

But what i dont understand is, why is it bootlooping? Maybe because it has been zipaligned and deodexed?

The other guys havent done this.

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9300 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S III General] JustArchi:
I doubt in that, ArchiKitchen never did deodex or zipalign wrongly for me, it worked with SGS4, SGS3, Note2, Note3 and other variants. Also it will help us soon when it comes to editing apks.
[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
Ok. If thats the case i havent said anything :)

Have you been able to get a logcat of the boot sequence?

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9300 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S III General] JustArchi:
Kryten is having fun with logcat atm. I'm just about to add full base drop without deodexing and zipalign just in case you're right, so you can have fun with these files while I'll sleep for the rest of the day, yes, it's 03:31 AM here as well :D.
[Galaxy S III General] MattBooth:
Yeah trying a few things to get a boot again. I guess it's just boredom until the OP uploads his base tomorrow :D Though bed soon for me also
[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
Could you please give me a logcat? Id like to see myself what causes this bootloop before i go to bed. Maybe i can find a fix while sleeping :D

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9300 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S III General] JustArchi:
I'm not sure how OP managed to boot it if we can't, but whatever :p. I've uploaded full base drop to my repo, so maybe somebody will push us further. As for now I'm going to sleep, maybe when I wake up we'll have something :).
[Galaxy S III General] demonoid phenomenom:
boot from sdcard? isn't system partition for this rom 1.8 gb and ours 1.5 ? I'm probably mistaken but who knows, doesn't hurt to try to help

sent from the gray stuff inside my skull
[Galaxy S III General] JustArchi:
No, not this. We shrinked it to 1.08 GB.
[Galaxy S III General] henrylife:
I guess I can help ;)
[Galaxy S III General] arter97:
You guys haven't been able to boot yet...?

PS. If you use f2fs with stock SELinux source, you'll get a bootloop.
[Galaxy S III General] malachow:
Dude, they've already succeded :good:
[Galaxy S III General] arhant:
Lot of heat's coming from this thread..:victory:

about lags .....

when 4.3 initially came out for s3 it also had lag problems on lock screen , camera , settings etc..

but somewhere in googy kernel thread i read that it can be removed by some editing in build.prop and some changes in kernel,..
[Galaxy S III General] aasimkhan30:
So does it still boots from sd card or

Now it boots from nand
[Galaxy S III General] malachow:
Afaik already from NAND. :good:

Sometimes the thing you want to say is the exact opposite of what you say, lol.
[Galaxy S III General] rizky syahputra:
Did you already change system/vendor to I9300?
[Galaxy S III General] LegendSmoker:
How to flash this it's 2,3 GB big i though nand system partition is 1,5 gb
[Galaxy S III General] malachow:
They shrinked file to 1.08GB. Don't worry.
[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
Im currently synching to Archi´s repo. I also enabled usb debugging on first boot to see the logcat when the bootloop is happening..lets see.

BTW: Synch can take a really long time for me since i got slow connection..
[Galaxy S III General] fastfix2013:
Morning all I'll start uploading rom in a minute. Only problems are baseband but I hope someone else can fix as for now I'm just working on finding the i9305 kk from somewhere Cus we need that in order to have a better base
[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
Ok, so i'll stop for now and flash your build later. Lets see if i can get something out of it. BTW: Where are you uploading? I suggest you to use MEGA.
[Galaxy S III General] fastfix2013:
Will take hours and hours to upload. I am working with my phone Internet lol. I normally wifi hot spot to my laptop and use around 6gb a day. But downloading the leaked rom the other day took 8 hours to download lol. Yes will be uploading to my mega account :)
[Galaxy S III General] Roman91:
what about sensors?:D

btw really big thanks for your work gyus !!!
[Galaxy S III General] fastfix2013:
As stated before sensors work. Gestures are All work as well
[Galaxy S III General] xda_Noob.:
Cant wait to use :D

so only problem is mobile network (baseband)?
[Galaxy S III General] Spluwicho:
And if you can to call?
[Galaxy S III General] MattBooth:
It doesn't get that far, unfortunately. And you also need to manually, somehow, enable the RSA key for your computer, which realistically can only be done after the first boot.
[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
Hmm...i thought the kernel is booting properly..

i took the RSA Key from 4.3...that should do it. But since Fastfix is uploading his build we can take that as base to work on the RIL problem.

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9300 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S III General] fastfix2013:
Updated bug list please read:

Bugs left are as follows

Baseband ( NO mobile networks which means no calls in or out or messages or Internet )

Lag has now been removed and is just same if not better then 4.3.

Up to now I cannot find any major bugs in my testing. Thanks.
[Galaxy S III General] LegendSmoker:
fastfix will you post the download link in this thread when it's up or do you open a new thread in dev section?
[Galaxy S III General] LegendM:
Any update ? [MENTION=3443334]Kryten2k35[/MENTION] [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION]
[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
How big is the size of the rom afterall?

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9300 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S III General] arter97:
How have you managed to make auto orientation working?
[Galaxy S III General] fastfix2013:
New rom will be released in dev section for everyone to test and use. I will be giving the link to developers 1st so they can get it downloaded before users. Im doing that because them having my build is of great value to me as they can fix things I might not be able to. Once they have downloaded I'll post the link and open a new thread.

Also taking RSA key from 4.3 might not work. It's a new build so I can't see it working Tbh. I was very very lucky and managed to get it to boot 1st try. I only edited build.prop and changed HW files and made needed changes in kernel to get it to boot. Using stock i9300 kernel. From there I enabled USB debugging ad had it working to get logcats from there. There is a way of enabling USB debugging on boot which bypasses RSA key but can't for the life of me remember where I seen it
[Galaxy S III General] fastfix2013:
Tbh no lol. I have not checked rotation i know it works fine when in video player and YouTube when u manually select to rotate but I'll have to check again. But hotspot works fine but USB tethering is broken. But since we have wifi hotspot working that's not a problem for now and can be fixed last. I will flash back to my build once upload hve finished
[Galaxy S III General] fastfix2013:
XeLLaR* link me to the repo your using I will Check something
[Galaxy S III General] MattBooth:
https://github.com/JustArchi/SGS3-KitKat-Port

There you go, mate :)
[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
Yup thats the one. Guys, maybe we can use the open source ril from CM to make the baseband working. Its worth a try.

Just a guess, not sure if it is even possible to do that.

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9300 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S III General] MattBooth:
Does the RIL form 4.3 not work?

I have a copy of the RIL in my AOSP I can test once this upload is done, or if the OP can point us in the right direction on this git
[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
Dunno, it might work if we have luck. The open source ril of cm should be suitable for us if the 4.3 one doesnt work.
[Galaxy S III General] JustArchi:

[Galaxy S III General] JustArchi:
Let me know your github username so I can add you as well :).

This way we can all work on the "same ROM" and fix all bugs together, this is the only way to create a flawless KitKat port, at least I think so :).
[Galaxy S III General] whatsgood:
Wow, just the other day we get told the s3 won't be getting official kitkat and the devs here are working on a KitKat port already! This is great news! I wish you guys the best in making this happen! :)
[Galaxy S III General] fastfix2013:
XeLLaR* flash the rom but replace existing kernel with the 1 In attatchments. That's not the 1 from my rom but I just did exact same changes as in my build and should work without problems assuming the rom was ported correctly.

P.s upload is at 9% and file is 1.2GB thanks. I am going to upload smaller version after which will go to users and is 509mb thanks
[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
Thx! Im on it :good:

[Galaxy S III General] MattBooth:
Testing another boot now. Shrunk the build to 1.4GB, just removing the Google apps and Accuweather widget, plus the libs from the Gapps. Also using that kernel image posted on the previous page.

[Galaxy S III General] nelsonw:
The CM ril worked out? Or baseband is still broken?
[Galaxy S III General] MattBooth:
We haven't gotten a boot yet. We're waiting for the OP's copy which apparently boots.
[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
Try

adb remount
adb logcat > sdcard/logcat.txt

it should create a logcat in the root of your internal sdcard

Is that using my boot.img ??

XeLLaR* post the boot.img u was using on the build from the git I'll turn on adb at 1st boot 4 u see what happens. Get me a logcat and PM me it I'll figure out what's going on
[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
Yep, he used your boot.img.

I don't have a copy available any more, but any 4.3 boot.img should do?
[Galaxy S III General] fastfix2013:
Ain't ganna happen atleast not yet anyway as it would only get leaked once it boots and works really. But if anyone can get their hands on that firmware PM me I will be more then happy to give a massive donation for that firmware. ;)
[Galaxy S III General] fastfix2013:
Yes d.w I'll crack on with my build ;) btw RIL from 4.3 doesn't help I will try RIL from cm 11 once this uploads done
[Galaxy S III General] MattBooth:
All you did, then, was change the kernel and boot form sdcard? Did you use any hardware files from the i9300?
[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
Can you try to exchange the mkshrc in the rom with this one *Klick* ? /system/etc/mkshrc and set rw-r--r-- permission on it.

(if you wonder what i did, i just hardcoded the getprop value. It should be only a plain "android" now. Maybe it is enough to get logcat running. In 20minutes i can try it myself tho..(sync takes forever :/ )
[Galaxy S III General] mrayzrocks:
Keep it up

lets show these SAMSUCK DEVS how good xda devs are..hahah!

i wonder what would be Samsung's reaction when XDA succeeded in this porting stuff..hahaha!
[Galaxy S III General] MattBooth:
Threads go in dev section when it is available for release/download.

And lets not disrespect Samsung's developers. The decision to pull the update will more than likely have from from higher up, or born out of consideration of the majority of their users, not us. (I.E. what would average Joe think if XYZ apps were removed? We would rather they remove them then not release, whereas the average user doesn't care what version of Android they're running, but would care about missing apps and features).

---------- Post added at 03:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:00 PM ----------

I can try, but the problem is line 10, which I think is the user id.

Here's with your mkshrc changes:

kryten2k35@UltimaAOSP:~/android/Git/SGS3-Kitkat/SGS3-KitKat-Port/out$ adb logcat- waiting for device -
/system/bin/sh: logcat: not found

[Galaxy S III General] XeLLaR*:
Yep, in the main time i tested it myself. The error on line 9 is gone..lets see if i can get the error on line 10 fixed too.
[Galaxy S III General] nelsonw:
Thanks for the hard work.
[Galaxy S III General] JustArchi:
It's better that fastfix will tell us what exactly he did to make it boot, or we'll need to stick with this port forever. Otherwise, I'll be able to update our base from new N7100 drops in future.

But right, just send me link to your working port and I can diff it myself and adapt proper fixes.

Hi, my phone is driving me crazy and i regretted moving to android from iOS. Here's my problem , after i accidentally remove google account from my phone and after i re-added my google account back to the phone , my phone keep redownload deleted apps . I tried to disable google sync like google drive and data and samsung backup and even disabled backup on my phone but its still not working. I can't find anyone who have the same problem on the internet. I also tried to go play store but i can't find anythings thats related to the problem . Can anyone help me with my problem. Im getting frustrated here, i deleted the deleted apps 5 times but after i deleted it , my phone keep redownload it back from play store. Is this a new malware ? Thanks!

Im using Samsung S4 i9500 and I'm running latest firmware android kit lat 4.4.2 and no root.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Hmm. When you first add your account, it asks if you want to keep the phone backed up. Don't check that off. You'll still be able to sync all your contacts and photos, stuff like that. Do this while on data, then go into the Play Store and go to it's settings and disable the auto-update over wifi. This should stop this behavior. I've never seen them re-install after uninstalling them though. That is odd. But it's not malware. Just aggressively trying to "help".

to license it for the Max?

FAT32 doesn't allow to transfer a single file size more than 4gb. That's why I need EXFAT support. Any idea to make it work.

i've searched all the forums and found that people only get that error when they try to flash their device but i didnt .. it just suddenly happened

would you please guide me to fix it ?

my phone is galaxy note 2 N7100 and it has 4.3 jellybean
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamertr:
I suggest you to take your phone back. I think it is a hardware problem. You can do nothing for that. If your phone was rooted and has a backup of your original efs partition (IMEI) only than it is possible to recover your IMEI.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devilnour:
that phone was shipped to me from dubai and it has no warranty .. i cant do that
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamertr:
Oh thats bad. You must find a service who has good knowledge about Android phones. Did you checked your phone after you received it. Maybe the phone was without real IMEI. So far I know the GSM prowiders allow a couple days to use your unregistered device.
