Is there a flashable (CWM) Stock 4.4 Rooted rom? I have looked and havent seen one. Anyone know of one being worked on? 2 Simple reasons i ask, wifi calling and 4.4.
None as I know of. I think its because the full firmware has yet to be released

Gotta wait till someone who has taken the official update to do a system pull or wait until sammobile has the firmware available. (I'm waiting for the latter )

Now that both Android 4.3 has been released as an OTA update and official Kernel have been posted by Samsung, I am thinking about turning my T-Mobile S4 into the 9505G (until T-Mobile releases the firmware update). I have a few questions:
- Is it safe to install the stock 9505G ROM on the M919? Do I have to worry about basebands/modems? What about the kernel? Will the new stock kernel work?
- When do I find the latest and purest GPE 4.3 ROM? I've been to the 9505G forum, but most stock-based ROMs are either old (not the latest) or have been modified in one way or another? Is there a link to the source?
Thanks in advance.

Since 4.3 just officially dropped. I'm sure by tomorrow allot of the developers who have posted 4.3 leak builds will update there ROMs with the official build. I would just wait till later tomorrow. That way you won't have to worry about flashing something you are not suppose to

Yes you can... I flashed my m919 ROM with a GE OTA and it works just fine.

I wouldn't recommend using a rom with the 4.3 official build. Security settings force quits, and you can't uninstall apps. Stick with one of the leaked 4.3's; I'm personally using VirginROM by mvirginia and it works great.

Any luck with a link for the flashed OTA GE ROM for the M919? I'd also like to try making my T-Mobile S4 into a straight GE version.

VirginRom as of now is already on 4.4. Perhaps you downloaded an outdated version of it. The 4.4 kitkat update people are awaiting for is the one with TouchWiz.

So you now have VirginROM 4.4.x? Is it the same one that's been available in the Android Development section since like December? Because if so, it's the official 4.4 update and it IS out and has been for a while now.

Pardon the comments which seem like objections, but they are necessary if the content of your post is not exactly accurate. The GPE 4.4.2 has been available for a long time for this device. The official TW 4.4.2 is not available yet. Don't confuse the two. Also, of course the GPE update notification will occur if you're on the older version of Virgin Rom(4.3). But if you have a custom recovery it will fail to install most likely. Also, the title of your post fails to recognize the complexities of going from 4.3 to 4.4 on an older bootloader and having a fully working result.
I think your intentions were nice, but you may end up misleading people.
Mods can you delete this thread please.

I just recently downloaded the latest kitkat carbon nightly rom for my T-Mobile GSII t989. Nice features--but I noticed WiFi/data calling doesn't work. How can I get it to function? Is there anything additional that I can flash to get this feature back?

WIFI calling only works on Touchwiz ROMs. I think the newest Touchwiz roms are Jellybean 4.1.2
There is also nothing you can flash to make it work. cwyman hit it right on the head. Flash back to a Touchwiz based rom and you have your WiFi calling back.
That sucks. Thanks, will do

This is the one I've used on one occasion. It's basically what you would find out of the box, only rooted and de-odexed... There's also other stock based custom roms out there, but I can't say much for those as I never was interested in stock based custom roms.

Hey guys. I've been using Note 3 for almost a year now and I am giving my Note 2 to my son. But its still on an old 4.3 AOSP custom ROM right now and want to upgrade it to an official 4.4.2 firmware if there is one.
I look at sammobile and search for SGH-T889 but the latest I can find is 4.3 released on Dec. 2013.
I checked both N7100 and N7105 and they have 4.4.2 available for download.
I entirely forgot already the difference between all these variation so I want to be sure before I Odin something.
Can I use the 4.4.2 FW from any of the 7100 or 7105? If not, can you guys point me to where I can download it?
Thanks a lot. Really appreciate the help.
There isn't a firmware update. The T-Mobile model of the Note 2 still hasn't received the update for Kitkat.
Feel free to flash a custom Kitkat ROM on the device though it worn have T-Mobile WiFi calling if you desire that.

Oh I see. I just installed the stock 4.3 FW last night since thats the latest I can find. Can I flash the KK Rom straight over the 4.3 stock?
Thanks for the response.

I wouldn't. The Kitkat ROMs aren't going to be like taking an OTA update and I believe all the TouchWiz Kitkat ROMs are ports from the N7105 model
I just got my sister the Note 2, should I update it to KitKat and then root, or root and then update? Any quick tutorials? I haven't done anything for a while so I'm rusty, but I still know enough to flash her phone.
I just don't know where to start.

Ok, are u talking about T-mobile note 2(T889) or Int note 2(n7100)? which model.....?
But since its on this thread, i'll assume its the T889, and no, we dont have any official kitkat update ....yet or never.
U might wanna try some kitkat roms from the n7105 threads or the at&t threads, but u might loose some few features like wifi-calling .
