Wow!! That's awesome. Does that mean that I will get update from Google after that? By the way how do you like the Nexus 5? I am waiting for mine.

No, you won't get any updates. Root just means you (apps) have access to system files while the phone is running. Titanium Backup, for example, needs root to read data from every app. The ROM can run fine without root because it essentially runs as root anyway (it IS the system).

Edit: I ****ing love this thing.

Has anyone picked up development on this? Any off-shoots of any sort? I'd love to use Google Edition if it was up to date, and especially if there were derivative ROMs with other improvements such as extra customization and so forth.

Well I might not even bother than. I will wait for my Nexus to come in. I will never touch the S4 ever again. Can't can't can't wait :)

Just installed this sucker on my phone and... IT'S AWESOME! I can't wait for the dev to do 4.3 or 4.4! Everything is so smooth! Installing Nova Launcher Prime, and after that All I might need are some Xposed mods.

Great job! :)

I read only the last page of posts, but to me it looks like you might be waiting indefinitely. The post before yours was November 12th. This is a dead thread.

Tried getting this to run. Had too many issues with things not working. Too bad too because it seemed like a really nice ROM. I'm just going to avoid cross carrier ROMs. I have tried several non-Sprint specific ROMs and they just cause more headaches then they are worth. Going to restore my nandroid and leave it at that.

Since Samsung released the kernel source for the Sprint S4 on kitkat, shouldn't it be easier to get this up and running.

    I will start adding features people ask for after the ROM is STABLE. I don't want a lot of touchwiz crap messing this up,
    But, I will try to bring over SBeam and Airview . The reason I chose those is stock android accepts these features and I don't see
    them as "touchwiz" property.
    Feel Free to use this as a base ROM , just please give credits .
    CHANGE LOG NEAR BOTTOM. AS ALWAYS HAVE FUN AND CONTRIBUTE . If updating you may have to wipe cache and dalvik.
    BEST RESULTS SEEMS TO BE FROM TOUCHWIZ. Not necessary but just throwing it out there.
    PLEASE PROVIDE LOGCATS FOR ANY ISSUE THIS WILL HELP OUT A LOT

    Okay . I rewrote a bunch of classes in framework * . now I have the phone completely making a CDMA object .. Now all I have to do is phone, contacts and settings . then it should be good to go .
    20
    Okay, guys . I'll be updating tomorrow night , its not a huge update , but it will at less fix a few issues . Sorry for long wait I've been really busy this week .
    18
    Okay everyone . I will be updating tonight. The list includes: 3G now stable with sprint no more gsm, battery stats, a lot of under the hood stuff , Sprint network configured by default , and Samsung camera.
    There is more stuff , but I'm not remembering it right now.
    16
    Real quick status update. I almost have network setting down and stabilized. The phone now is starting to create object of CDMA. It just dies midway through, but I think I know why . I'm also working on a 4.3 build that should be a little easier to get everything working , the only thing is Google and Samsung took out almost all touchwiz in the framework. So the 4.3 may never see any of the Samsung goodies . I'm hoping that I'll have the current build up and ready by the end of the day, but no promises. Depends on my daughter and nap time . just wanted to let you all know what's going on .
