I am currently running this rom ( ♦♦[ROM][THEME][NC2][4.4.2] Dynamic Kat 4.0 [ThunderKat Edition][GPE 4.0 + 4 Colors][S5 2.0][6/21/2014]♦♦) rooted, safestrap yada yada

Can I install this rom since I am already on 4.4.2 KK ?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jerrycoffman45:
Yes
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Did you get firekat up and running dude?

Mega
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] megalomanic14:
So after the firekat builds have been out for around 2 weeks...I'm just interested to see...how's everybody feel about kk now with fk v2? Is everyone glad they went kk route or still wish you were back on jb? Purely curious

Mega
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Face_Plant:
I still miss JB, but Firekat makes KitKat bearable.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rogerinnyc:
I'm glad for the better GPS lock, but miss FN's incredible battery life. But FK is pretty darn good!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Ok great...I'm glad the rom is working out...def gonna try and make it faster and longer lasting on v3 but kk has taken much more work than jb imo and needed tons of tweaks and mods to make it "feel" as fast...hopefully that succeeded or close but as long as you guys enjoy the builds then that works for me regardless of the base rom it's built on lol

Mega
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] imnew214:
I've been very happy. I'm getting great battery, and awesome performance!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rogerinnyc:
v3? Happy dance!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] PeteSeiler2010:
I am very happy with it.!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] megalomanic14:
I'll be starting work on v3 in a couple days....I have to update a few other roms first then I'll be working on firekat v3...main focus will be further increases to the launcher speed and fluidity, 3d rendering optimizations, ram and dalvik optimizations

Mega
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] JT@XDA:
I also have an issue with 'SD card safe to remove' as soon as I enable PIN or password. Pattern unlock does not do this, but has a 2 second delay before unlock completes and launcher screen is showing.

Is limited to a few devices or is it that nobody else uses PIN/password security?

Beyond the SD card thing, the PIN is a bit unreliable as sometimes it is there and other times it is not and access is gained w/o security.

I tried DynamicKat4 and it has the same issue with PIN being only part-time security, but it did not have the SD issue.

Any suggestions?

OK so after testing the rom sad to say theres a problem with the GPS for sure.. but just download the gps fix on google play and it will lock it and fix it .IF AND A BIG IF your gps on your phone is not mess up
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] megalomanic14:
what bug?...i just drove 2 hours with it on for 45 mins strait doing turn by turn coming back from my gf friends house after following them and it's been flawless. ..? but didn't we already go over this before a couple weeks ago...youre literally the only person to mention this before this other dude tonight...but you said it was your note having issues...now it's the rom? I'm confused how that could be considering the numbers... so either you guys have bad notes or do something that interferes with your gps...if it was a rom or even base rom issue it would affect alot more than 2 people of 125k like it did with the known bug on jelly bean...i suggest you guys try different maps apk...the easiest test to see if it's your note...clean flash check gps before setting anything up...

New to the note 3 and this is the firt rom I've tried so far. This rom has a couple launchers, which launcher is best on battery life? I don't really care much about aesthetics, I'm more about functionality, efficiency and battery life.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] megalomanic14:
It's only about aesthetics lol...the launcher will make zero difference on battery...the rom is already nearly double stock battery life even being so much faster...if you control your apps properly with greenify you shouldn't even have to worry about battery life...the rom will give about 6 hours screen on time or 50 hours standby...typical users get 2 days on my builds...or 1 really heavy users day like mine ...enjoy

Mega
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Totally snagging one on release day for sure if I don't order one from overseas before that lol...just bored and wanting to see how ridiculously fast and smooth it would be completely clean wiped...and holy balls lol its insane

Thanks Bro Yea even I'm impressed lol like my note is blowing my mind...especially the little things like s pen and keyboard speed...app install and launch speed ect. ..I'm loving my N3 right now that's for damn sure lol

Yea I didn't notice until they pointed it out...so I tested exactly like I said right after a clean flash when I got home...and it locks on instantly...far faster than any FK before imo. ..plus I did notice this was the first time the turn by turn was smooth not like segments that keep reloading...hopefully it's really not their notes and just something in common with an app or setting they've done

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Lol so you guys are saying you'd prefer stock att kit Kat but youll settle for v9 lol[emoji106]

Mega

to be quite honest... I never imagined the N3 could perform like this coming from stock roms if you asked me a year ago... I mean even coming from a few versions back of FK...now it's running up next to N4 and holding it's own ... on V9 I've been playing with my Note like i just bought a brand new one lol
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Vaportrail36:
Why would ATT suck all the performance out? It seems counter productive. .....
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] megalomanic14:
It's not just att...it's google...it's samsung...they're all complicit in mediocre is best...I'm no programmer by any means so it's not like they couldn't build the roms properly to begin with...I've never understood it myself tbh...but my intl samsung mega roms were worse than these att note roms...and stock nexus roms are widely known to be a joke on every update they're literal beta testers those builds are so bad...hell just look at Google app updates and play store/gnow issues. ..every other update. ..

Mega

Think I've got roms on something like 45 or 50 devices now...so it's just lazy generic roms pushed out on everything..across manufacturers it's crazy not one does a decent build...that's why I've always said I have to have root and roms with android until they start making proper serious roms like they should custom for each device...so if L is locked I'll be on kk forever

I mean there's a reason TouchWiz is the face of android...what the mainstream knows...because it's so much better...than googles own os...?? Mind boggling again...I've said the same thing since I got into roms thinking with every new version...this has to be the one I mean there's thousands of people paid to do this...this next note I won't have to rom ,maybe ill just root it for fun but performance and battery...camera video and sound optimizations psh google and sam got it covered...unfortunately v9 was something close to my 300th rom...smh note 4 is the same exact thing again I don't get it...Ferrari wouldn't be "ferrari" today if they sold their cars to ford then got their ass kicked by a kid self taught tuning up the car himself...

Got a question Mega & whoever has knowledge... When I take pics it says unable to save to ex SD card & can't delete anything off the card but can add to SD card..My phone reads the card & I have storage... It's a 64gb..odd
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Your card is more than likely failing...I'm guessing it's class 10?? Backup everything off of it before it fully corrupts...android isn't class 10 compatible unfortunately...Google stopped at class 6...the unable to store pictures to SD is typically the first sign

Mega

Ask up...SuperSeries I think...several others just in last few months on fk have had their class 10 cards fail man unfortunately...but ive seen literally hundreds of class 10 cards fail over the years...i use all 32gb samsung class 6

Mega
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] MoJoe277:
I believe Mega is correct. Installing the new Play Services to go along with the new Play Store helps calm things down and seems to be running fine for me.

Note: keep in mind that you have to go back into Play Store settings and select "do not update apps" Otherwise the new version will seek app updates all over again.
