Verizon 4.4.2 Update Possibly May 2nd - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Android Geek just posted today about a leaked memo they received from one of their readers. The leak shows the update rolling out May 2nd. *Fingers Crossed*
Here's the article: http://www.android.gs/android-4-4-2-kitkat-update-to-roll-out-soon-for-verizon-samsung-galaxy-s4/

Do you not want to install the 4.4.2 we already have? It works great!

Google Edition ROM

Does anyone know if the Google edition ROM has been ported to verizon s4 yet? I don't think 4.3 was but maybe 4.2.2 was? :thumbup:

Yes, there's a thread for it in the Android Development forum. It works very well.

New ota update being pushed

I woke up this morning to an ota wanting to install. It came over during the night. Anyone know what it is or does? I sure hope it's a version update. 4.3 maybe! ? I have access to the download if any devs would like it uploaded.

Definitely not 4.3, see the below link to VZW support site. The file size however looks different from what the Instructions Doc says "System update size – approximately 329.5 MB".

I'll be blocking this with Titanium until I hear more.

What rom are you using for SPH-L600 Sprint.

Hi guys!
What rom are you guys using for the sprint version mega (SPH-L600). Do the G-19xxx version roms works for the Sph-L600? I've tried every rom for the 19xxx model on my sph-L600. 3G/Data even calls doesn't work. So any stable roms for the mega Sph-L600 with a working 3G or LTE?
Thanks in advance. :highfive:
I was thinking about buying one but there seems to be no development for the sprint model. Is the boot loader unlocked?

Yes. If data is not working you need to go to settings and switch to 3g only. If that fails download an app called phone info. And switch it to CDMA only. Should be good then.

Rom slot not working- SS 3.71

First off, if this is in the wrong area I apologize. Please move it Mods, or tell me where it needs to go.
I am running ss 3.71 on my verizon mk2 s4. For some reason when I create a rom slot and try to boot it up i get passed the splash screen then nothing. No button lights or reaction to any of the buttons, just a black screen. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance fellas

Yes. Tried booting with and without a rom installed. I run the same version of ss on my fire hdx and it worked fine the first time. Also when I go to make the partition I can only change the data size. It won't allow me to change the others.
should I try uninstalling SS and re installing it?

When I did my HDX the rom slot opened and ran on the stock rom then I made changes to it. This should work the same on my GS4 right??
I just tried creating the slot again, same issue.
Thanks a lot guys! I really appreciate the help for a noob!!

And its definitely the Eclipse for Safe strap?? If so maybe try and load a different ROM on that slot just to see what you get then. If you can get into SS to do all this I wouldn't think SS is the problem myself.

Well like josh said whatever one you do chose must be a 4.3 TW ROM since you're on a Safestrap S4. The only one I could suggest is Hyperdrive. But there's a few from what I've been seeing.

If you're gonna buy xda premium just buy tapatalk pro just in case you join any other forum. Even if you don't it still has features not included in xda premium. XDA screwed their app when they updated to tapatalk 4
