[Galaxy S III Android Development] arter97:
​

back-to-n00t; Bring the LTE fun back to 3G​

/* Introduction */

Previously, Korean developers were porting i9300 ROMs to e210s.

How ironic, we are now porting e210s ROM back to i9300!

The Korean letter "눝", pronounced "noot", symbolizes LTE(as you can see).

/* Overview */

Touchwiz Android 4.4.4 for Exynos Galaxy S3 3G

Ported from Exynos Galaxy S3 LTE

Havily debloated

De-KNOXed

Deodexed, zipaligned, uncompressed

Since this no longer bases on N7100 ROM, this is much more stable than other KitKat ports

/* Disclaimer */

Your warranty is now void.

I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,

thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please

do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM

before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if

you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you. Hard. A lot.

/* More disclaimer */

Unlike Besonderes, everyone is encouraged to fork this project and make his or her own ROM based on this project.

Please read https://github.com/arter97/back-to-n00t/blob/master/README

/* Supported device */

Galaxy S3 3G International (GT-I9300)
