[Q] What are the changes/fixes in 4.4.2 Update - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

I've tried looking around for the answer, but I couldn't seem to find what changes/features/fixes are included in the 4.4.2 update for Galaxy S4 ( At&t ). Anyone know? I tried to do the same for the 4.3 update but really couldn't find anything outside of the Jelly Bean features page on Android Dev site.

Check androidpit (can't post URL here). The changes are minimal. Marginal performance boost. Minor changes to Samsung’s user interface Touchwiz. The camera symbol is now found in the lockscreen.

I Know that, but users and Dev can write what they know and with changes they have discoverd on there new firmwares!
There are only 2 official Roms for Note2 , 4.1.1 which is the official and leak Samsung 4.1.2 .
You can find the threads on Original Android Development and there you can see from users the changes .

But it still would be much better for all to find the info in 1 Post rather than looking in several other posts with 100 pages to find some info

JellyBam TF300T JB 4.2 builds, and their compatibility with the 4.2 Bootloader.

Hi all
I'm running JellyBAM on the SGS2, and it is a lovely ROM. Apparently there is a build for the TF300T, but I note is is suspiciously absent from the Development Forum.
http://get.jellybam.com/tf300t/
Is there a reason for that?
With the requirement for Android 4.2 Rooted TF300T tablets to only install custom ROMs built from ASUS source, how can I find out for sure that this ROM is compiled from Asus source, and therefore won't brick my device if I install it?
I don't mind doing the research on this, but I'm not sure who to contact. I've tried to do some searching on the JellyBAM site for any clues in changelogs, but there doesn't seem to be any info specific to TF300T and how the latest stable build interacts with the JB 4.2 bootloader.
Can anyone shed some light on the subject? Your help is greatly appreciated.
well...i don't know, why this rom is not listed in the developer section...but the base of this rom is 4.1.1, so it's not compatible with the 4.2 bootloader...have a look in the build.prop of this rom...there you can see it...
"fingerprint ro.build.description=WW_epad-user 4.1.1 JRO03C WW_epad-10.4.2.18-20121122"

Thanks for clearing that up. I will steer clear of this ROM, and perhaps try CROMi instead.
I think there is no dev thread for TF300TJelly BAM on XDA, so perhaps that is the reason why there is no mention of the ROM in that thread?
Thank you very much! I did not know that there is such a ROM.
Would have liked to hold on 1000000 THANKS but - "Sorry, you are limited to 8 thanks per day"
'm Thrilled to now. A really hot tip.
P.S. 4.1.1 bootloader

Petition for Samsung to release 4.2.2 update OR Exynos 4 Sources

Hello!
I've started the petition "SAMSUNG Galaxy S2 Android 4.2.2 UPDATE (OR) EXYNOS 4 SOURCES: Please release an update to Android 4.2.2 for the Galaxy S2 (OR) Alternatively a release of Exynos 4 Sources will allow developers to take over." and need your help to get it off the ground.
Will you take 30 seconds to sign it right now? Here's the link:
Add " h t t p : / / " and then visit the below link:
Code:
change.org/petitions/samsung-galaxy-s2-android-4-2-2-update-or-exynos-4-sources-please-release-an-update-to-android-4-2-2-for-the-galaxy-s2-or-alternatively-a-release-of-exynos-4-sources-will-allow-developers-to-take-over
Here's why it's important:
The Samsung Galaxy S2 was a great device and has received 2 updates: IceCreamSandwich (4.0 to 4.0.4) and JellyBean (4.1). Samsung halted the JellyBean update at 4.1 and did not proceed to release 4.2 or 4.3. We Samsung Galaxy S2 users want an incremental update to atleast 4.2.2, as the S2 Plus (S2's sister device) has received the update. The S2 Plus is relatively similar to the S2 (except CPU and GPU), so an HDPI screensize is not an excuse for not releasing an update. If Samsung and/or its Developers are not benefitting from the development of an update to the S2, why not release Exynos 4 Sources and allow the third-party developer community to take over?
Please sign this petition if you are interested in seeing some development take place for this magnificent device.
Note:- This Petition applies to the following devices:
Samsung Galaxy S 2 (International) GT-I9100
Samsung Galaxy Note 1 (International) GT-N7000
Thanks!

Your initiative its a good start but this doesnt mean that samsung will hear 2-3 voices whispering "update s2" we need a lot of people to sign but even that its probability of update is very low,by low i mean 0.001% , but, if we can try , why not?...anyway s2 is old , thats the true reason why sammy wont update it
I see that it is your first post here , you are a new s2 owner/xda user?

sorry, this might be a bit out of topic,
but I own sgs 2 and i haven't tried the custom rom, although it is already rooted.
the reason i haven't tried it was because in every room especially the new os i.e. 4.2.2 > always has some basic function that doesn't work
such as bluetooth, GPS/Wifi or even restart when changing from landscape to portrait, etc. (CMIIW)
so if the release of the exynos source would ensure full functionality of custom rom then i'll vote on it.
in the mean time is there any other branded phone that offer custom room with working function?

I have been using a custom ever since I got the phone and 4.2.2 and 4.3.1 are perfectly stable for me and has been for awhile now... no such problems as you mentioned.
These threads are just as amusing as the noobs who post 'OMGZ ! Such & such rom is on the S3 I want someone to port it to the S2 now !' threads in Q&A.
Edit - Also, this thread is superfluous given the long running thread re: this issue here (with petitions & other nonsense).

Galaxy S4

Hello
I am looking specifically for the PA Galaxy "S4 Verizon global" port. This link is the closest I have gotten to anything that looks like a DL for PA. "https://sites.google.com/site/unofficialparanoidandroid/home-1" Sadly I am not seeing which of the HAMMERHEAD, or MAKO would be stable specifically for the S4VW. If there is a forum for PA S4 pleas link it here so I can study it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

The are device specific forums on xda
Search for you device and go to the Android Development section and see if there is a development thread for PA
Officially PA supports nexus and oppo devices and their actual download site is http://download.paranoidandroid.co
your awsem
thank you very much
In addition, all the devices you see on the official site are nexus devices, and none of them will work for your s4. The names such as hammerhead, mako, etc refer to the code name of a nexus device
Sent from my Nexus 5
Verizon S4 (jfltevzw) has a "legacy" (maintained by several in conjunction with PA team) 4.3 and 4.4 release available.
4.3:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2291740
4.4 I saw before but can't seem to find it. Notta was working on it and I've suggested he work with PA Legacy team to get it included in their repos. If not I will be adding it into the others that I'm handling.

4.4.2 KitKat "clean" ROM?

I am looking for a Rom based on the 4.4.2 Kitkat stock ROM from Samsung and keeping TouchWiz but getting rid of all the bloatware/useless crap I don't want/need.
There was one here linked on the forum, based on 4.2.2 but it no longer supports S4 for the later versions.
Does anybody else have any good recomendations?
Obviously, needs to support i337.
Thanks!
XDA is a development site not a support site, members are expected to do their own research, read through the development threads, and decide what is BEST for them.
Please take the time to read through those development threads, learn all about the software there is for use, and interact with members in those threads as you are about to drastically alter your very expensive device.
