UPDATES

UPDATE 1

Dear Community,

I'm coming with bunch of news from this night (in terms of my time zone ofc.. :silly:). Well known here-and-there developers JustArchi & Kryten decided to cooperate together and started porting KitKat using various versions already presented by Samsung - I9300I, N2 and, the most similiar device, I9305 (which update should come in a few weeks I suppose). Well, till now it boots, some fixes need to be implemented but, the most crucial thing, the ideas for them exist!

The hope is mother of fools they said. I'd say rather it's mother of XDA. :highfive:

What's my purpose? Simple - I'd like just to inform you as I know how much all of us want to see stock KK on our 1GB-ram-only-outdated-device and invite you to follow/subscribe the thread:

Note2 KK port progress/to do ( Development status )

Along with works' status on their github: https://github.com/JustArchi/SGS3-KitKat-Port/commits/master

Maybe any of you would have some more ideas for this profejct? Go to thread and let them know! :)

Who on this planet wouldn't boot S3 with stock KK with warm feeling *samsung, you're no longer needed for me, XDA updates my phone on its own* :cool:

UPDATE 2

it's crazy but the porting team has succeded! New thread is up with.. Flashable package with alpha preview :D

Have a good day all!
