Can someone confirm that the Portugese 4.4.2 rom will work on an unlocked international GT-I9250T (LTE) in Australia. By 'work', I mean full functionality, 3g/4g data, wifi, gps etc.

Given up waiting for the OTA update here in Australia, I'm sure its coming 'sometime' but need 4.3 or above to work with the Lg G Watch I am getting tomorrow.

Followed the opening posts instructions but installed the newer Spanish Rom. It installed like an OTA update. Kept all my apps, nova launcher etc.

So far I'm getting random reboots, sometimes I can't dial numbers with a reboot the only way to fix it, today my camera started jerking around after I took a photo then crashed. I had to reboot to get it working again.

Going to do a factory reset to get a clean install, hopefully that fixes it. Only upgraded so I could use it with a smart watch. Sick with 4.2.2 if you don't need kk.

I'm using Kitkat from region PHE (Spain), everythings work fine and smoother than 4.2.2, without any bugs, flashed firmware through Odin :)

Did a hard reset but still having problems with calls. Problems start after a day or two. No ringing on call outs, calls connect but either side can't hear anything, some times calls drop out with the phone app handing. Might be a regional thing, I'm in Australia.

Going to turn off blue tooth and my lg g watch to see it that is the problem next

All good now on the stock Italian 4.4.2 rom. Must have been an issue with the modem in the Spanish version. For Aussie Mega 6.3 owners use the Italian rom, been on it for a week now, no problems at all. Now the wait for Android 5.0.....

    Mobile Data not Working

    Possibly because I'm not from Portugal and not on that network, but I can't seem to get my mobile data to work. It says I need to insert a SIM card. Probably flashing back to 4.2.2 in the meantime unless I can find a fix.

    No custom roms ? I think you are blind

    Next time I won't start development on non popular phones anymore

    Haha, yeah I think someone needs to visit a few more threads on here, or buy a pair of glasses :)

    BTW I tried the Bulgarian & Czech UDNF2 roms from Sammobile but Wifi would not work, so reverted to Portugal and all is well again, still enjoying Kitkat over JB.
