[Q] SPH-L520 Kitkat 4.4 Firmware - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Is there a release yet of the latest update firmware for Kitkat 4.4 for the Samsung S4 mini on Sprint network (SPH-L520) yet? If someone has it, it would be nice to have it posted. I would greatly appreciate it. Could anyone post it please?
Thanks in advance.

It still hasn't been released yet... :/ officially, you can still get it by flashing a custom rom. But since you have the sprint version.. like myself. :/ You have to wait. Happy waiting. x3

Thank you for your reply. I was hoping they would have customs roms out by now. The stock is ok...nothing to write home about. But customs roms always rock out your phone way better IMO.
I'll keep my fingers crossed that soon we can have custom roms.

NP Yeah I was hoping the same. I think they aren't any developers for the sprint version. I was thinking about maybe port a rom by myself.

Can't wait!

With your phone disconnected from the computer for precaution:
Reboot to download mode, think it's volume up or down + home button + power
Act as if to say yes for use and the next screen will show you text up top, this information you see... Does it say knox on any line?
Just wondering

I must say you will love the CM ROM.
I have a favor to ask as that Dev works to help me out also. Can anyone with the SPH-L520 on sprint give me a copy of the PIT file or upload a backup (no data) of the stock ROM.
I made a mistake and rooted/flashed the phone for my girl before activating the phone, not knowing that sprint would have issues doing so. Now the only stock file floating around doesn't work. using samsung kies didn't work and trying to get samsung rep to give me the file was hopeless.
Thanks
PM me if you have any questions

I would like to say that i do not have this device, so mods, feel free to move this into the appropriate ATT forum , or keep it here since i have a feeling this is dev related and will be a big help to you people over at att..
I along with a dev, ogdobber got wallet working on tmobile variant.. This SHOULD WORK FOR ATT AND VERIZON since its basically all pulled from sprint regardless to make it work.
soo i am asking testers to try this and see if it works.. i have high expectations that it will, however i am prewarning to make sure you make a backup first..
MUST BE ON DEODEXED TOUCHWIZ ROM!!
thank you and enjoy!
Not sure what is different other then yours is a flashable zip (which att cant use, but the canadians will like). This one works great and you can change the build.prop back and it continues to work (with the xposed hack)

I'm assuming if you use the T-Mobile wallet zip that you will need to manually change the build prop to an AT&T build prop after everything is working because it seems the T-Mobile method will change the build prop from AT&T to Sprint and then back to T-Mobile. Is this correct?

[Q] pacman rom.... android phone stopped running help

A few days ago I flashed the official ls970 pacman ROM on my lgog. Up until today I have had no issues with it. I keep getting an error message that says process android phone has stopped running.at first it popped up I pressed OK a few times and it would go away for hours now it seems to be stubborn. Lol .I have read that other people have had the same problem. I know there is a file that needs to be deleted but I'm not sure which file and where to find that file to delete. If some one could please help me out it would be greatly appreciated....

Yea for the most part. Earlier today I had a string of them. I ended up rebooting and havnt had any since. So let me ask u here since I can't yet post on the PAC ROM thread. Will multi window ever be intergraded in PAC ROM. And how useful is it in vanilla Unicorn. My girl has a note 3 and I am so jealoise of the multi window. Pacman ROM was my first ever flash and I love it. But now I know how easy it is to flash with the right amount of reading on the ROM. Would it be worth checking out the vu rom?

Definitely a great port. I like it better than MIUI in my opinion. Weather location would be great and a full English version. Great work!!! Thank u

Amazing work
My headphones jack isn't working in this ROM.
Any idea what to do or how I can fix that.?
Besides that I would get a black screen during calls but that fixed itself with some reboots.
Any hiccups within the rom there is an app to replace it in the market.
Great work again thank you so much!

Installed twice. 1st time had English, got the wrong phone number format error. Tried area code, etc. Doesn't seem to affect rom any, just curious.

Great. Post ROMs here. Then when stuff has issues and questions arise, the reply is to buy you the phone. Thanks for your help. And BTW, I had posted in private to you more than a few times I would make it worth your while for some help. But you only put me down in public. Really great support... I will leave it to others for help.
Well generally the chinese firmware doesn't support our SMS it doesnt work on my model either; I don't know much about ColorOS.
You must enter SuperSU and have ti ignore CMs native root settings in options for root I did find

Well look at the op. Not too much information about the ROM. What do you expect from this guy really. Thanks for the port but really a little more effort goes a long way. I tried the rom and I can't get gapps to install properly and I really dislike the keyboard that it comes with. The ROM is nice with a lot of customization. I just wish half of the text wasn't in Chinese.

Its also true for the i317m. Which is identical to the i317 except the bloat. And being in India i doubt it would matter if it had At&t bloat VS Rogers/Bell ect

Understand.... Just merely pointing out that you told OP to search for model number of phone, which guessing is SAMSUNG-SGH-I317, based on signature.
Way cool the i317m is online. Should mean the i317 should be up sometime soon,

might be a long wait... but you never know. Last i317 AT&T firmware posted [on Sammobile site] was in Jan2013 which was the official MA4. Seems like every update since [i.e., MC3, MK6] have been appended "updates" to current firmware. IMO, one our our stellar developer's packages is your best option.
Thanks for the quick reply, yeah I guess sticking with the xda devs sweet roms is the way to go, and with so many tw roms out already there is always so much choice
