Well... I came out of retirement because I don't have the patience to wait for KitKat on our SGSIII T-Mobile version. If you didn't own a Droid Incredible or Transformer Prime, you probably don't know me. No worries.

I will NOT officially support this! I WILL fix the issues that I can't deal with and update this thread with my new builds.

Credits:
@cyanogen Mod Team for just being awesome, and the code, and all the things..!
@invisiblek for his commits and just being awesome!
@RMarkwald for brainstorming with me and just being a Great friend and Android enthusiast!
@Jiggs82 for pointing me to commits that fixed the external SD card!
@saranhai for the Kit Kat artwork!
@cashmonkey for the external SD card final piece!

What's broke:

• WiFi tether
• Netflix not displaying videos properly on phone (works on Chromecast).
• Mute button doesn't work (Hasn't worked but it was just brought to my attention)
• You tell me

ART is going to be a whole new work of...haha get it, ART!

For everyone that cannot live without root, and why should you!? Dalvik is gonna be the way to go for now.

Just finished up reading about ART and it definitely sounds interesting, it'll be better performance and battery. All in an effort to escape Oracle's Java. Google was sued by Oracle, but it failed and so they still have the right to use Dalvik, and I guess now they finally said, we're just going to out do you and discard your stupid Dalvik virtual machine.

Thanks for bringing this to us OP, glad to know D2TMO is still alive and well!

What a difference a day makes.. 2 days ago I couldn't get it to build. Yesterday it had big issues... Today we have:

• Sound
• Phone calls
• Battery reporting properly
• No soft reboot on first boot
• Bluetooth turns on (Haven't tried connecting it yet)

The external SD card is still not mounting so I need to look into that. Give me a while to see if I can get that working.
