I have a Developer edition running Beans 6 and have seen mixed information on whether Kit Kat will be available for download as a OTA update or as a custom rom.
I would like to know if Kit Kat will be available and will custom options be available.
Thanks

Hi there im new to the whole android community but i have rooted and installed a custom recovery on my s4 and have been running multiple roms. I read in a recent thread that for 4.4 roms you need to update the baseband version if your having connectivity issues. My baseband is 1337mvluamg1 and was wondering if I have to update. Specifically ive been running the virgin google play edition rom and wondering if im gonna have any troubles when it comes to kit kat. Thanks
Hi,
Sorry if this has been asked already, i have not been keeping up with the latest info available...
I have Installed the leaked Samsung kit kat firmware and have tried out all the Kit Kat roms available but it seems to be a hit and miss, some roms boot up fine while others give me a bootloop with a double vibration. The first rom that i tried was echo kit kat rom and it booted up fine, i then tried another rom that booted up fine but decided to go back to echo and now it is boot looping?
The roms that do work seem to be a bit buggy too.
Is this expected on these early Kit Kat roms and CWM just now and may be ironed out soon?
Thanks for any info.

Hi there,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
All the instructions to upgrade are in the OP in the MOAR thread.
What bases and ROMS are you folks running?
Any recommendations on which ROMs you like most?
My AT&T GS4 is on stock rooted MF3 right now. (came from the box with MF3, so I'm only able to Safestrap)
Trying to decide whether to stay Jelly Bean, upgrade to Kit Kat, or upgrade to Lolipop. (And run a Safestrap compatible ROM of course)
So far, I can't seem to find very many Safestrap compatible MF3 ROMS anymore. (I think the only one I was able to find was the Venom one)
On the other hand, it seems like there are many more ROM options with the newer upgrades, but I heard that Safestrap can by finicky with Lolipop? Although I suppose I can always downgrade to Kit Kat from Lolipop. But if I'm understanding correctly, I would never be able to go back to Jelly Bean once I update to Kit Kat.
What do you folks think I should do? Is it worth going to Kit Kat/Lolipop or should I just stay with Jelly Bean and use the Venom ROM?
Thanks!
With a locked bootloader, only TW-based ROMs can be flashed to the AT&T s4.
Yup, there's no going back to JB from LP.
May I ask which ROM(s) is/are your personal favorite(s)?
Trying to decide whether it's worth it to go to Kit Kat or Lolipop.
I do not have the att s4. I have the Canadian version which is the i747m without a locked bootloader; therefore, I am able to use many custom ROMs designed for the snapdragon 615. The note 5 and s6 ports are nice but I am not sure if they can be flashed to the att s4.
My samsung s6 got destroyed recently and I had to go back to my backup phone - the LG G2 (D802).
As this set is using the stock 4.4.2 Kit Kat ROM, what else do I need to do to upgrade to Orion's 6.01 here? http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/development-d802/rom-orionlp-1-5-t3192311
From Samsung side, I have to update the bootloader and modem baseband through Odin first. in LG world, do I need to do something like this?
What is the tool used, and where are all the latest editions of the bootloader and baseband?
Thank you so much!
