Gummy ROM with Android 4.4 KitKat for Galaxy S4! [AT&T/T-Mobile/Sprint/Verizon/Canadian/GT-i9505]

For those of you with AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, Verizon, Canadian, or GT-i9505 Galaxy S4, check out Gummy ROM with Android 4.4 KitKat for this week.

Based on latest Android 4.4 KitKat sources, Gummy ROM brings you one of the most complete Android 4.4 KitKat custom ROMs out there along with a good level of customization.

First, Gummy ROM has camera, camcorder, WiFi, bluetooth, 4G LTE data, IR Blaster (use 3rd party IR remote apps on Play Store to control your TV), YouTube, video replay, and more working out of the box.  Actually, I have not seen anything broke on this ROM yet.

Second, Gummy ROM comes with Gummy Interface in Settings menu to give you a good level of customization on your status bar (battery icon/date), notification drawer, hardware keys, navigation bar, lockscreen, performance, and more.  Also, wifi tethering works out of the box for those who need it badly.

For performance, Gummy ROM ships with its own Elite kernel with overclocking support up to 2.268Ghz!

Sounds too good to be true?  Well, honestly this is the best Android 4.4 KitKat ROM you can install on your Galaxy S4 “right now” so definitely hit ‘em up over the week(end) and do let me know how KitKat tastes while all non-rooters are complaining they are stuck on Samsung Jelly Bean.  (Don’t get jealous, root your own S4 and install this ROM.)

You may have to use CWM 6.4.0.3 or higher for installing all Android 4.4 KitKat ROMs.  If having trouble with installation, use ROM Manager to update or grab CWM Recovery ZIP here you can flash with your existing custom recovery.

Omni ROM Android 4.4.2 for Galaxy S4! [AT&T/T-Mobile/Sprint/Verizon/GT-i9505/Canadian]

Based on latest Android 4.4.2, Omni ROM brings you the best and latest Android plus some customization you can do including screen recording, one of the major features of Omni ROM.  (You can already do it with screen recording apps but this one is integrated into the ROM.)  Of course, Android 4.3/4.3.1 custom ROMs still feature more customization than Android 4.4 KitKat ROMs and if you need a lot of customization, we suggest you to look for older 4.3 Jelly Bean ROMs.

Omni ROM now offers notification count, network speed indicator, and network activity indicator for customizing your status bar.  Also screenshot and screen recording can be enabled for your power menu.

There’s still a lot of work that’s being put into Omni ROM and this is probably the tip of the iceberg.   If you are looking for a good, stable Android 4.4.2 ROM, definitely check out Omni ROM as everything works out of the box and we should have some custom kernels coming soon so you can overclock.  So, check it out for this week(end) and do let me know what you think!

CM11 ROM with Android 4.4.2 for Galaxy S4 GT-i9500!

For those of you with GT-i9500 Galaxy S4, your long wait is over for Android 4.4 KitKat.  Although there were many beta builds available since Android 4.4 KitKat came out, there hasn’t been one yet stable enough to run as daily driver.

Well, CM11 ROM is still experimental but everything is working out of the box except video camcorder, wifi tether, and some issues with calls.  That might be a deal breaker for some of you but the latest CM11 ROM packs Android 4.4.2 along with very zippy speeds and all the KitKat goodness baked in.

It shouldn’t be too long before the bugs are fixed but in the meanwhile, you can always take a test drive by making a backup ROM of your current ROM, try it, then revert back.  So, if you have been itching for Android 4.4 KitKat bars, definitely give the CM11 ROM a try this week(end) and do let me know what you think!
