The latest Android 4.4.4 KitKat version is now available for download on the Samsung Galaxy SIII Neo GT-I9300I.
The dual-SIM smartphone was launched back in April running on Android 4.3 Jelly Bean, but now it has been brought up to date. The Snapdragon 400-powered Galaxy SIII Neo I9300I is a dual-SIM droid with 4.8" Super AMOLED HD screen, an 8MP rear cam, and 16GB expandable storage. It has a single-SIM sibling, called Galaxy SIII Neo I9301I, but it is running on KitKat since launch.
The new update brings all the latest Android optimizations and bug fixes, faster and more fluid interface, transparent status bar, among others. The update should be waiting for you via the OTA service. It sould become available (if not already) on Samsung KIES too.
Apparently the update is seeding in selected Asian countries. The process is gradual, but it will eventually hit everyone worldwide.
Via GSM Arena.
Firmware is now available to download on SAM Mobile, currently for Kazakhstan, Hong Kong and India.

Other countries will follow. Check the link above for firmware details, download and how to flash.
Also, there is already ROOT and TWRP 2.7.1.0 for 4.4.4 on SIII Neo, check the link below.

It's stable as a rock! None a single bug so far. Yes, you can move apps to sdcard. I can't talk about battery right now. Let's see in 1 or 2 days, then I will share the results. :good:
Hopefully it stays stable.
nice!

I can't test OTG right now, but battery life seems fine so far, I will update this info in 1 or 2 days. :good:
One of the dramatic improvements is the RAM consumption. Now, my S3 Neo uses less than 50% RAM compared to Android 4.3. Very nice!
The system seems more smooth and fast also.

Hi! Battery life is very good. 3G ON all the time with moderate Wi-Fi usage. GPS is OFF. 1 day and 2 hours currently, and still have 11% battery to use, so with normal usage, it will last more than 1 day. :good:
Also, power saving mode is disabled. With this feature enabled, I think it will last some more.

I see from the official page that their rom has support for S3 (QCOM). Do you managed to install it on S3 Neo (I9300I)? Aside from battery drain, everything is working? The official download page doesn't mention I9300I, only I9300. Dual SIM works?

RAM usage is almost 50% less. My S3 Neo always has almost 700 MB free at any time, it's just fantastic. And I confirm that there is no overheating problem anymore. Too awesome! :good:
its system compatible with my S3 i9300 ?
Just received my tablet and i dont really like the stock experience.
I am thinking about this combo:
Cm11
Nova Launcer Prime
Freeze apps?(or on cm11 i dont really have to do this?!)
Kernel: cm11 stock ?!
What do you think? Is it good for smooth experience? Also the cm11 links are dead for me , can you link me the latest build?
Maybe, but I ran into the Wireless AC not working on CM11, so I ended up just debloating stock and get fantastic performance. To me, network performance is a part of overall performance, and I've got an AC network here to take advantage of.

Hello everyone
I own a nexus 7 2013 (WiFi) that is currently running cyanogen mod 11. I would like to try the lollipop's official release, but before doing it I have two questions:
1) does it run smoothly? (If the answer is "no" you can ignore the other question)
2) what is the best way to backup the applications? I don't want to lose my progress in asphalt and all the other applications.
Thank you
Hi, for backup i'm sure Titanium Backup is the best. And i'm asking question 1 too. Lollipop 5.0 was very laggy and unstable. Is 5.0.2 better?
I'm not a fan of Lollipop but it runs very consistently on the Nexus 7. Its not the fastest in the world but doesn't feel that slow either.
Whilst I'd advise anyone to give Lollipop a go on there tablet, I wouldn't say the same for the phone. For me, Google have made too many bad decisions in Lollipop......Lock screen, volumes, keyboard functionality, etc. I'll be sticking with the, "XP," OS for my phone which is KK. :angel:

It's slower on my Nexus 7. Kit kat is certainly the benchmark.
I think I will stay with cyanogen mod 11 , then. Thank you for sharing your experience
You should try it yourself. Do a clean install. Lollipop is WAY better than kk. Faster, smoother, better battery.
Why the hell would anyone stay on kk.
Kk - ll

Wow, I also did a clean install and it was not my experience. Maybe I am unlucky
Its funny that I found the developer preview of L to be better in some ways than the finished article. Battery was amazing and the keyboard worked as good as KK but looked like L. Performance was very inconsistent though.
Does anyone know if the memory leak bug has been addressed in 5.0.2

Uh, because some people don't like bugs? And others don't like the look of it. I belong in both camps. Plus, I need to have my Xposed. KK is still the best version of Android, no question.
What's the most stable and battery-friendly Lollipop custom ROM and kernel combination for the Z1C at the moment?
I've lost track after months of not upgrading my phone and would appreciate some pointers. Thanks!
I would recommend to not use LP if you are out for battery life.
KitKat, especially this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/development/rom-d550314-4-0-108latest-t2862578/page59 has the best battery life. I downgraded a while ago after it sucked down my battery every day and doesnt provide any advantages...
Greetz
I agree with doenen.
Updated to 5.0.2 OTA (coming from 1 day old 4.3) and had a poor battery life. LP drained my battery from 100% to 30% in one day (12h) of occasional whatsapp, facebook and browsing.
I downgraded to Kitkat 4.4.4 (14.4.A.0.157_R2C, see here) and now I got from 100% to 20% in 3! days with the same activity (WLAN on, occasionally mobile data on, whatsapp, facebook and some chrome, airplane mode at night).
Kitkat is currently my favorite as battery life is one of my top priorities.

I generally agree but I'm currently using prerooted stock 5.0.2 and can easilly reach 2 days od battery life with the right use of Greenify and Amplify combination as well as stamina mode. I recommend you to have a look at those threads:

Thanks for your advice, but since I just purchased my Z1C I wanted to stay as close to stock as possible (also in case I need to make use of the warranty - though I am aware that my downgrading may already have voided that, but I decided to take that risk).
Thanks for the advice, guys! I'd rather be using a CM based ROM, rather than stock, cos I don't like the Sony interface too much. Are KK/LP ROMs that are based on CM that considerably worse at battery life than the stock versions?

I can only give you my experience with the Galaxy S2. I flashed CM11 Kitkat and the battery life was the same as with stock Jellybean.

I was using CM 12.1 nightlies for about 3 months and I can tell you it requires a lot of tweaking to make it battery friendly (I mean A LOT) and it still wasn't even close to KitKat or even stock Lollipop I'm using now. If you consider staying on KitKat I highly recommend this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2743177. It's not updated for some time but it worked for me for almost a year and battery life was great.

+1 for KitSlim_AMG, if you enable conservative governor and disable a few things in play services, you should get three day battery easily.
Problem with LP is wakelocks. If you have a messenger installed, it will keep the mobile radio active all the time.
Just flash a ROM with built in wakelock blocker (eg AICP) and you're good. My battery life improved on LP since it uses ART.
Miui works great too!! Two days and more are really well for me

I've actually been using the old version of the MobileActiveRadioFix for a while now, with success I might say. Good to hear it's getting updated.
Two months since I switched to LP and I first tried stock ROM, then on AOSP.
Thanks to the stamina sony feature, I hardly noticed any faster battery drain between KK and LP stock ROM.
But with AOSP rom the story is quite different !
I've found this really interesting post ([GUIDE]Extreme Battery Life Thread(Greenify+Amplify+Power Nap))
But battery life is still not at stock ROM's level
the best ROM for battery life has to be stock. I'm on stock 5.1.1, with moderate usage 30% battery life gets used up per day
I'm on Xposed but didn't need to use greenify or amplify either. just use the stock STAMINA mode, activate to always-on, whitelist the apps that you want to continue to receive messages when screen is off

You're only really going to get that with one of the stock ROMs. I've been running Imperium since forever and I've never really had any problems with it.
I'm interested too because with Stock Base Roms (Imperium) I get bootloop after a few weeks. Now I'm on Cosmic OS and I'm looking for a good camera
SimpleGX rom is a great one too, no problem at all, I'm still using superSU
Also security patch is updated monthly

Sent from my LG G4 using XDA Labs
Ok, so I should pick up the Simple GX ROM ? seems like it's the best solution to keep the camera quality

for best stock based.. that is genisys/imperium or simplegx. all are the same in camera... if you want alot of customazation and nougat then AOSP but lower quality on camera.. longer battery life and faster phone.

That's right that aosp nougat roms have a faster ui, but in my experience it slows down after some days of uptime (RR Tyler build).
I back at stock (imperium) for 2 months now, because of this issue.
Anyone else experienced this slow down after some time of use?
If not, which rom you are using?
Thx

did you ever try my ported htc and snapdragon ? also they both fix the flashlight problem ,not hitting at the right moment.
personally i don't see any difference. The only difference is in that dam bug on the video , caused by the drivers, and we can't record a video on 1080p

stock has alot of services running. and aosp or CM have less. so yes you get more SOT. i get around 3-4 hours in stock base rom. using whats app,messenger and facebook app. and data connection.
What about ProShot on asop rom and it's quality. I have/had LP 5.1 with 100% quality jpg mod and 60fps HD 48Mpbs all the way up to 60Mbps but my andorid was being hacked so now i have to explore aosp roms with latest security patches but when i go on travel trip i want my LP with mods back. V10 camera port has no jpg 100% quality mod, but Proshot does but then again it's not LG stock framework as you guys said so it's quality it's probably still inferior. Thoughts guys ?
Dual boot sounds interesting. Any links for H811 for this?
Hey!!
I'm using lg stock lollipop rom (H815) as there's no update for my model. But my problem is that my battery lasts only 2-2.5hrs in full charge. Even if i don't use my phone, it drops by 20-25% per hour. So is there any way to make my battery life better?
