let’s see how to update Galaxy Mega 5.8 I9150 to Android 4.4 KitKat :

1. Install the ROM Manager on your Galaxy Mega 5.8 I9150. Get it from Google Play Store, then install the clockwork mod recovery.

2. Connect your Galaxy Mega 5.8 I9150 to your PC employing the USB information cable. Copy the “Galaxy Mega 5.8 I9150_4.4 KitKat.zip” file you downloaded to the SD memory card.

3. Restart your device in the recovery mode using ROM Manager. As soon as in Recovery Mode, go to ROM Manager and select backup / restore to back-up your information.

4. From the Recovery Menu do a total data erase (including Delvik Cache). When completed, go back to Recovery Principal Menu and choose Flash ROM from SD Card. Navigate the location you copied the ”Galaxy Mega 5.8 I9150_4.4 KitKat.zip” file and follow the directions for installing Android 4.4 KitKat on your Galaxy Mega 5.8 I9150. As soon as the installation is over, just reboot your Galaxy Mega 5.8 I9150 device, and here you go, you’ve just upgraded it to the new Android 4.4 KitKat.

Note: Here Is Link To Download the ROM =
The ROM File size is 128 MB, so I split the file into 3 parts :

ROM Part 1 : http://downloadsafe.org/file/0tX959
ROM Part 2 : http://downloadsafe.org/file/0tX962
ROM Part 3 : http://downloadsafe.org/file/0tX965

To combine 3 parts files above into 1 file just use WINRAR, then extract the files into ZIP format.
If any problem with the ROM, maybe because the ROM have corrupted during the download process, you can try to re-download the ROM.

I hope it will help you.:good:

Not able to download...

I was not able to download any file even though I actually tried to complete the offers.
Isn't there any other way to get this rom?

Samsung Mega 5.8

My dear friend, dont evern think of buying a Samsung device unless you can afford Note 4! Their service and updates are horrible! Why dont you just buy a Xiaomi and be happy?Its 4 times better than mage! BTW I do have a Mega, samsung has been saying from October 13 that the update is coming!

Mega 5.8 = Core Plus ?

Hi,

it seems that the sames ROM can work for another phone, quite a surprise for me...

Here (kitkatjellybeanfranceb.blogspot.fr/2013/11/tutoriel-installer-44-kitkat-sur-le_2166.html) is an explanation to get KK on Samsung Galaxy Core Plus = SM-G350 .

They use the same 3 files than you (also under ...safe.org)

What do you think about these 2 phones ?

:confused:

That site and many other sites like this are scam. Just leave them alone, all they want you to do is complete the offers one after another and earn them money. There's no file offered for download at all.
5.8 users who want KitKat should look to CM11 (and maybe CM12), though whether that works on the single-SIM i9150 is a big question.
