I9200 USERS READ

***Megakat V17 for the i9200 is identical to megakat v14 for the i9205 only named different to separate them for less confusion

V17s one of the best roms I've ever made and by far the best rom I've ever built for the mega...it's refinement in every possible way, camera, audio, call quality, speed, battery etc I pretty much went in and optimized everything possible

Photo quality greatly improved

Instant Focus and Shutter Speed

Instant Screen On/Off

HD Audio Codec added to try an get richer sound

Call Quality and Voice Clarity Greatly Improved

V26 Features: same tweaks you know and love from Megakat but using stock i9200 firmware, bootloader, and baseband means no kernel needed which was causing some significant issues for some...also means fm radio stays in tact, as well as any other i9200 specific features...basically it cuts out the only source of issues...the kernel which is the main goal and benefit without having to give up the speed, performance, battery life, or stability of MegaKat ...enjoy

V26 Update: extremely fast...the fastest I've ever seen the mega...everything's instant and buttery smooth...with performance that feels as fast as the extremely high 9000+/- quadrant scores

V26 Features:

Super Fast

Optimizations from megafire builds, note 3 kk and jb roms, as well as my several other of my builds to make this rom the best possible

Extremely fluid animations

Lock Screen Zero Lag or Delay

Camera Zoom and Shutter are instant...photos are taken so fast and clear that I'm actually amazed...and they're storing to external sd that fast

3d Graphics and Rendering Optimized

Framelocked at 60fps throughout the entire ui and system, even thru most benchmarks

One of my cleanest builds in over 135 roms to date on 31 devices

***Known Issues: the only issue is a bug in KK base rom that causes glitch video playback of recorded videos using mega camera...by simply using mx player with s/h local encoding they play back fine

Thanks to Shivwest for the i9200 rom zip and for getting me to do the build for you i9200 users...if you have an i9200 you should thank shiv for your build
