If you're talking about the Sprint kernels, they work but the screen rotation is bugged and WiFi doesn't work, so I advice against flashing them
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Jake1Jamie:
Why post if they are bugged? :eek: Lol alright ty for the update xD
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] CNexus:
Because this is XDA

developers

, not a mobile support site
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tokenpoke:
This isn't android forums. Lol.

They are there do other devs to play with and see what they can do.

Unlike other sites xdaDEVELOPERS is not a place for noobs or unexperinced users.

Unfortunately this gives the site a bad name for some people because it is expected that you have some degree of understanding and experience with android and most users won't hold your hand and give step by step instructions for basic things like rooting, installing recovery, flashing roms and tweaking mods.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Jake1Jamie:
Honestly, if you can't follow simple little steps like rooting,recovery,flashing...you shouldn't even be trying to screw with your phone lol I've been rooting my phones since I had my LG Optimus M back in like 2010 lol only got stuck on the S3 rooting cause it was alittle more pf a pain then the LG Nitro/ Samsung Note2/S2 Skyrocket lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
At one point I swear I had a note with those kernels that I was leaving them up in case any devs wanted them for any reason. Mustve deleted it by mistake I guess. Ill add it back to try and avoid further confusion.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tokenpoke:
I updated to the latest version of this port last week and still have the apn randomly unchecking its self every so often.

I deleted the T-Mobile apn using the apn menu on the phone but every so often I will still need to go in and reselect the metro apn.

Seems to happen when I accept an incoming call while I have another going or if I happen to get into an area with bad coverage and a really low data connection.

It will hang on 4g (nonLTE) and then just not get data. I simply recheck the apn and I'm good.

Am I the only person getting this issue?

When I updated I did a full clean install fwiw

thnx it works.... yapppiiiii now im using 4.4.2 ...... bt cant find deference btwn 4.3 and 4.4.2 :P :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

What karnel should i use for battery improvement????
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
That is odd. I dont think ive heard of this happen to anyone else yet. Try grabbing the apns-conf.xml file from a stock T999N build and use it in place

of the roms. (Ill get you one if you cant find it).

The differences are kinda subtle. You have more control over location and other permissions for one. Overall performance is improved. Theres a new wifi timer. You just have to look through all settings and youll see some changes.

Afaik, only the included kernel will work. There are no other options currently.

Just check the ktoonz kernel page for updates periodically
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kamontryst:
I finally got around to doing a clean flash, did not restore anything, and hotword detection is a no go, "Hi Galaxy" works with the crappy svoice, so im thinking it might be a google now problem

[edit] by uninstalling Google Search through titanium, and then side loading, the "OK, Google" hotword detection now works, so my suspicions were correct, i just wonder why it wasn't working in the first place
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
My $0.02. Svoice had been documented to overwrite Google Now Voice detection libraries. At least in prior Firmwares. They had also hijacked the button that launched Now. So when you sideloaded, the app got all of its needed stuff fresh and is now working.

US Wireless release

Hey guys, I have been playing around with the latest Kitkat release for the US Cellular version of the S3 for the last couple days (R530UVXUCND4).

Seems to be a really nice base for a port to our devices. Boots up fine with the stock kernel/boot.img, and does not have the signal & rotation issues that the Sprint ROM did. The wireless does not work, but this is now simply solved by installing KT747's kernel.

The ROM itself is very nice. Includes unnecessary 3rd party applications (I simply deleted them), but the ROM itself feels almost stock Samsung. No branding anywhere (e.g. the wifi tethering is not "Sprint Hotspot", but just stock android tethering. Works straight out of the box on my AT&T plan).

Also responds nicely to changes in the build.prop model (e.g. using kltexx for S5 icons). And it brings back Internet Calling (built in SIP), which is something I very much missed in the Sprint rom. And the wifi icons are fixed!

The one issue I noticed with this ROM is that, when connected to LTE, there were no signal bars (all grey). I fixed this by deodexing the ROM and then swapping out framework2.jar with the same from the Sprint rom. This restored LTE signal bars.

In the mean while, here is a goodie that will help with any of the Sprint ports. The SystemUI.apk from the US Cellular version can be swapped into your /system/priv-app/ folder and will fix the Wifi icon, even when using d2tmo in your build.prop. :good:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] srnoth:
Ok so it turns out it was not as simple as swapping out the framework2.jar from the Sprint port. That lead to numerous visual glitches (including what appeared to be Korean characters on the on/off switches!). All that forced me to learn how to use apktool, and a few hours later I had a modified framework2.jar that provided the LTE signal bars, without any glitches :cool:.

I'm pretty pleased with the overall result, so wanted to share with you. Would make a very good base for D2TMO/ATT kitkat ports. The attached file is:

Based on stock R530UVXUCND4 from the D2USC

Deodexed

De-bloated (sorry I like as close to a Vanilla Android experience as possible. Will attach the original deodexed apks for those who want all the original bloatware :)

KT747 Kernel (KT747-TW-KK-4.4-ATT-05-13-2014.zip)

UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99r3.zip

Build.prop from [MENTION=4081205]DocHoliday77[/MENTION], modded slightly to get the S5 icons

SetupWizard.apk from the Sprint port (the stock one had a bunch of US Cellular stuff & got stuck on "activating")

Modified framework2.jar combining both the Sprint & USC versions (stock USC version wouldn't show any signal bars when connected to LTE)

Calculator.apk, Email.apk & Exchange2.apk from CM11 (don't like the Samsung versions)

apns-conf.xml from [MENTION=4081205]DocHoliday77[/MENTION]

Aside from this it is completely stock. Installs and boots perfectly on both the D2TMO & D2ATT variants.

This is the closest I have got with a Samsung-based ROM to stock vanilla Android, and seems to be running better than my previous ROM (CM11). Should be dirty-flashable over any of the Sprint ports.

Hope this helps someone!

Download

ROM:

Original Deodexed APKs:

P.S. I still haven't figured out how to create an install.zip that containts individual files, rather than the entire system.img. What method do you use [MENTION=4081205]DocHoliday77[/MENTION]?

Also another cool tip I learned during this process. Since none of the KitKat versions seem to have access to the *#4636# menu anymore, I have been unable to force my phone to connect to LTE. I assumed this meant the Phone Info app was completely removed, but it turns out if you run the command

am start -n com.android.settings/.RadioInfo

from an elevated terminal (or ADB), it will pull up the Phone info app. Now I am able to force LTE :D :good:.

Can this be flash by itself (D2TMO_ND4_PORT_SRNOTH_1.0.zip) without flashing Doc's port rom?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] yeeahnick:
can we send sms and mms with WIFI ON in this build?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] srnoth:
You should be able to. But if you are coming from anything other than a Sprint port, you will need to wipe Data & Cache first.

Yes both work fine with WiFi on.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] yeeahnick:
sorry for this question but do i need to flash the 4.3 bootloader in odin or is it included? If its not included where can i find the bootloader?

Hey :).

Just to clarify that - ArchiKitchen was initially a dsixda's kitchen continuation, but in current form it's brand new rewritten from scratch kitchen, which doesn't share even 1% with old dsixda's kitchen.

This is because I needed to rewrite basically everything to make it universal across all devices, including adding special advanced improvements like dynamic permissions, which apparently fixed your problems :D.

Cheers.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Apologies @DocHoliday77 for going OT.

Begin OT ----> Thanks @JustArchi. I had forgotten about your expansion of the kitchen. I was looking for it the other day for my Rom and had a hard time remembering that its your Kitchen. Thanks for reminding.<-----End OT

Thanks for the clarification, and apologies for the outdated information. I will make the appropriate changes in the op asap.

Outstanding work, btw! I'm definitely looking forward to using and learning more about it! Thank you for for what I'm sure has been a lot of time and effort spent for the benefit of everyone!

No, there is no 4.4.2 bootloader for this device

Edit: you need at least 4.3 bootloader though.. Its stated in OP
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] yeeahnick:
yah i updated my post, i meant 4.3 bootloader
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] srnoth:
As far as I know there is no 4.4.2 bootloader for our phones (yet). You need all the original requirements as Doc's port. I.E. you should already be on the 4.3 bootloader and modem. This port only flashes the System and Boot partitions. It will not touch your modem or bootloader.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
Yes you need 4.3 bootloader
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] yeeahnick:
Thanks guys for the fast replies!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tdotdot:
Do you think it would have been a better idea to start your own thread with this port? I'm not sure about thread etiquette but this doesn't seem to be the best idea.

Also, is ktweaker working well for you? I noticed that cpu1 was getting stuck at 972mhz a lot and was draining battery. Thanks.

Also the debloated version is a gig...?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] srnoth:
I do apologize if I was not supposed to post in this thread. This isn't really a standalone ROM... it's just a copy of my system.img to share my progress porting ND4 with others. That's also why the download is so big. If others would like to take this and make a full custom ROM out of it, I hope my work will have helped.

Not sure about the CPU issue. KTweaker seemed to be working, but I'm not 100% sure how to check. Again, the only changes I made to the stock ND4 were listed in my original post.

Edit: Getting bad battery drain from bam_dmux_wakelock while on 3G. Need to look into this some more.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] murayoshi:
I don't think Doc will mine coz this is final and anything added to help or make this port rom better its a good idea. as long all credit goes to doc.:good:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Yeah, its not a big deal in this case. Doesnt bother me at all. Though for other roms and other people it may not be so, so the statement about thread etiquette does have merit. Primary reason being that some might take it in a way it wasn't intended, like a stab at the OP's work (dont worry, I know that's not the case here!).

But it also makes supporting what's in the OP more difficult. If people using the second rom are having problems they are not likely to specify they are using that second one. Case in point a few posts back, someone asked about sms over wifi, and I nearly answered them in regards to my ND8 rom before I figured out they were asking about the ND4 one.

I can probably help with issues or questions about it, but I need to know that's what they are asking about. This is the main reason I have to say I can't support anything not in the OP. I dont mind it being posted here, like I already said, but if you have a question or problem with it, either be VERY specific, post in Q&A, ask via PM, or dont use it. I have to assume all posts are about the ND8 port unless otherwise specified. Just please understand this isn't to be rude to anyone! Not srnoth, or anyone using his rom.

Sorry for the long post!

[MENTION=3347292]srnoth[/MENTION], ill download and take a look at what you've got tomorrow and will try to help you make it into a flashable zip. Can you pm me and give me an idea as to what youve done to create the system.img? And if you were having any specific problem creating a flashable version?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tatuk:
Sorry, it's not clear for me. Would I turn if off during "Wait a sec..." screen appearance or let it go until it continues itself?...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tdotdot:
Don't let the screen go off during this time.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tatuk:
How?? I tried to touch it continuously, it says "Connecting..." and "Webpage not available"...

Is it right way?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
Is this in the set up screen? All you have to do is continue with the set up without letting the screen time out
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tdotdot:
Just one thing to report on srnoth's build, my carrier is being reported as a number and it's always present on the top left of the screen. Not a big problem, but kind of irritating.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] saotua:
If you like, you can download the xposed and wanam to remove it :D

I gave up. Returned to Slim.

Any way, thanks, bro!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tdotdot:
That's what I finally did. But it doesn't solve the issue of the numbers however. I'd like to know when I'm on my carrier and when I roam.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
We will first get his port set up to flash like usual roms do (not a system.img), and then we can try and tackle issues like that much easier.

Smart dock

I have this smart dock and when on the stock 4.3 everything worked as it should (hdmi out, otg) and since flashing this, nothing works with it anymore, just charging, however when I use just plain otg, or a plain mhl-hdmi cable they work, anyone know as to why it changed?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
When you say it worked while stock, do you mean a stock based rom, or purely stock, not rooted or anything changed? If you were completely stock and not rooted, I would have to guess that it may have to do with DRM requirements. Apparently, if you root or anything like that, it breaks DRM content and it will no longer play. This may only have to do with AllShare stuff, but I cant remember for sure.

If that does not apply (you were rooted and/or running a stock based, custom rom), then my best guess is it has something to do with this being a Sprint rom running on a T-Mobile device. Might even be related to issues like how it powers on as soon as you plug it in. (you cannot charge while turned off).

If I think of anything else that could cause it, I will let you know. But if you were unrooted when it last was working, try flashing a NC2 based rom and test it there. (StockMod, S3rx, or any other TW based 4.3 roms)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kamontryst:
I was previously using your 4.3 leak (md5 I believe it was) but I did debloat a lot of the Samsung apps, as far as I can tell I've removed the same apps from this build. I was thinking it had to do with the kernal. I usually only use it for school, so its not a problem right now, hopefully when our update drops it'll work
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] :
This ROM is wonderful!

Now that I actually got to fix the wifi, it's stable.

Incredibly stable.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] yeeahnick:
im on the T999_Sprint_ND8_Port_2.1 and i know that MMS is said to not be working with WIFI ON but i decided to try anyways using Hangouts. I guess it was a bad idea, my network got broken and the phone rebooted. After reboot my com.android.phone process keeps crashing over and over again with no signal being detected. I was forced to flash the rom again to fix the issue. Is that normal behavior? Is there a fix for this?

Thanks

edit: It just happened again, but this time i did not send MMS, i was simply sending SMS with hangouts with wifi ON
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] daggorlad:
I have the same dock and was having similar problems with StockMOD until I downloaded updates for ALLSHARE. I haven't tried it since I loaded the Likewise KK ROM based on Doc's port. I will try it out and let you know what I find.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I was thinking it was a kernel issue as well. My previous leak was using the AT&T MJ2 kernel if I remember right. This kernel is built from Sprints source code.

I am going to try to release a minor update soon that will hopefully solve this. Will try to get to it this afternoon/evening.

Looking forward to hearing your results! Thanks! Ill update the apps too when I can get out the update I mentioned above.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Thanks! Glad you like it! I was actually surprised myself at how well it turned out! Im even happy with it without any custom mods added. There are some I'd like to add if I find the time though. Just can't believe how things keep happening around here! Giant tree in my front yard blew down in the storm last night, so once again.....! Lol! Just gets kinda funny how things can go sometimes!

I should be able to get to the stuff I mentioned above though. If it goes smoothly it ought to be a fairly simple update to make. :fingers-crossed:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Well guys....looks like I'm done for a while.....phone is broken so I don't have anything to work with anymore. No idea when I will be able to fix it either so I'm going to have to call it quits until I can afford it. Ill still try to pop on from time to time to answer questions, but I've always been able to do that from anywhere on my phone so I won't be able to do that near as much either. Really sorry to leave you guys hanging, but I just don't have any way I can effectively work on any of this anymore.

I will come back at some point, but I hate to say it will probably be quite a while. I do hope you guys continue to enjoy this rom and those being made based on it!

Take it easy everyone! Sorry again.....

Not sure if anyone here using Zooper widget. If you do, do you have to leave the "Location" on all the time for the widget to update the weather? or is there a way to only allow zooper has access to location as I dont like to have my location on all the time. Thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Theres always a chance its different, but every weather app/widget Ive used, once you enter the location, or let it be found using gps, it saves and keeps that until you do something to tell it otherwise.

[MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION], I will hopefully be releasing two flashable zips today or this weekend to fix the screwy WiFi icon in the status bar and to fix the MMS over WiFi. Provided they seem to work for everyone I may update the rom to include these as well. Thanks to [MENTION=3347292]srnoth[/MENTION] for both of them!!! :good:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] saotua:
Thanks Doc for the speedy reply. Because it doesnt auto update when I had the "Location" off. I have to turn the Location on then force update otherwise it doesn't update. Other weather apps are fine like you said, they looked for the last saved location then update, but not zooper widget though. So I thought maybe there is an option from the rom's Settings that I dont know. Thanks again.
