Agreed definitely excited as well. Been on this phone since 2.3 and it's amazing the support and dedication the devs have put into this device. 4.3 was merged pretty quickly it will be interesting to see how easily 4.4 merges with all the custom roms. But I am sure given enough time this will be a great update given that it is built to run on as little as 512mb!!! ram I have a feeling KK could be amazing on even our aged devices.
In the mean time I'm happy our 4.3 roms have matured and are virtually a bug free pleasure to run (ymmv). Thanks again to our hercules devs!

Isn't source code for KK is released? Do we need anything else for having KK on our devices?

What is latest in terms of 4.4's compatibility with our phone? I'm sure more of this has been talked about in regards to the kernel required to run kitkat.

If you follow Soupysoup's Beanstalk ROM, he is talking about releasing a 4.4 ROM soon. Im stoked as all that I have seen him work on so far has been solid. Excited to give KitKat a taste.

Yup! Already working on porting! Though id be willing to bet that someone else beats me to release!
If not it'll be later this afternoon/evening before I can finish working on it though, just a heads up is all. Don't go gettin all impatient!
Are you talking about source for sprint that's been released? Or has it dropped for us too?

Screenshot it home and power simultaneously. Also what's the update say?
Are you rooted? If so don't go through with it yet and go to a root explorer and go to the root of your files and go to /cache and pull the update (update.zip) and then upload it to something. From there we can have our own magic of a ROM.

shouldn't be too hard for those that know how to build from a source. Should come out pretty stable also. I'll give it a go of course, but doubt I'd be able to stay on it for too long.
So far, i personally like the way it looks and acts.. But it suppose it'll depend on performance and stability, functionality.
I'll give it a go, for sure.
I'll try anything once.... she said.
I would love to beta test it out for any one once they get it ported over

i'd suggest you not flash this right now, as it's clearly stated that the ROM is only for the Verizon Galaxy S III, d2vzw.
flashing a ROM from another phone could cause your device to hard brick.

Nice, that means one step (or in all reality, multiple steps...) Closer to this bad mamma-Jamma on our babies. I've heard that it's not ready for daily use but I'm down for something new. Also been thinking about getting a Nexus 7 soon to try this out. Or a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 for the larger screen... Still can't make up my mind...

Technically, it's the mounting points that differ. You could go into the updater-script and modify the mount points to match our phone.
I assume it has a while sperate kernel though? (I haven't looked). If so, that would clearly be a problem too.
If nobody else has done it by tonight, I'll look it over when I get home. I'll be out all day searching fort parts for my project car.

Ya I'm almost positive of that. Its way too incoorperated within the system for someone to make a flashable zip I think at least. I'm guessing there is a ROM out there close to cm with it though. I'll see if there is and where its at maybe get someone to port it over to our device.

Hellfire is based on CM and has HALO in it, I haven't played with that ROM in forever I used to test but there was more development and a ROM I was more into that needed a tester so I jumped on that one instead. I can say his Roms that I did test had very little issues when the release was dropped. Check it out in the Dev section, not original.
