List of 4.4.2 KitKat Roms for Hercules with working video camcorder and GPS?

truthnotfiction · Feb 4, 2014

I'm hoping some of you fine folks can help me find a 4.4.2 KitKat Rom for Hercules with working video camcorder and GPS.

Have been using SlimKat for the last month. It's a great super smooth Rom, but lacks working video and GPS.

Thanks.

Made a nandroid backup and dirty flashed Carbon Rom over SlimKat because I was lazy and heard mention that you could do this with 4.4.2 roms. Worked beautifully. Have working video camera and GPS now! Set it to 720p and it worked out of the box. No camera fix was needed.

yea I noticed some people were able to get it working straight out of flashing the rom , As for me the camera would record but the video would end up just being not viewable at all which made me do the camera fix

Flashget is a download manager for Firefox, I believe. You can check out download them all as well. Both are great Dl managers for Firefox. Only reason I still use ff over chrome and safari.

My 720p worked with no fix. Just tried 1080p but it was just green bands. No idea if doing the fix will get 1080 working, but all the posts I've read say 720 only.

I've been using CM 11 nightly 2-5 with working camcorder and GPS. Been using it since it was released with no FC's. Been thinking of flashing the latest carbon ROM after reading about it...sounds like a good one.

roms for sgh-t989 a.k.a. hercules .. is 1) illusion 4.2.2 and 2) hellkat 4.4.2 2014/02/23, the only thing with hellkat is you will need to download a cam and delete the system one .. i downloaded "a better camera" from piratebay.. best i've ever used

also the extra options on hellkat like build prop and int tweaks dont seem to stay checked so i assume they dont work .. but for kitkat 4.4.2 for sgh t989 this runs smooth .. i havent found any other kitkat rom that runs smooth .. most of them when you turn the screen on it lags for 30 seconds

You can always use a 3rd party camera. Google camera is alright

CM finally fixed this issue, but be advised to use an updated kernel.
