[ROM][Android 4.3 - JWR66N] I9505GUEUBMFP - Google Play Edition [28-06-2013]

[@home]

Is this rom worth the effort to install? I know there is no root atm but that'll come soon Im sure.

So is it worth it, is it all ok & working?

What does it bring that 4.2.2 doesn't?

Did I mention yet I have root on the S4 "Google Edition" leaked 4.3 ROM ?

So hopefully a pre-rooted rom or CF-autoroot will be posted soon.
And I also hope the battery drain will be solved soon!

This new way of using root still has some probs, but it'll work on all Samsung 'engineering'/root-protected ROMs Release prob tomorrow.

I flashed this using Phil's recovery but it says no su installed.. Do I need to flash using twrp or is there something else is wrong ?

If im not mistaken Chainfire said that he used TWRP but said it makes sense that it works with CWM recoveries as well.... I would maybe reflash it once more with Philz and then try it with TWRP. Finishing my nandroid backup and going to test this and report back....


Update: when you flash it via Philz DONT tick the disable stock recovery option right before rebooting... Thats what was causing you to not have root...

It's not worth it to root yet. It is way to difficult in this leak. Once the full version comes out root might be achieved a lot easier.

Me Gusta!

Once again it wasn't , if your name is chainfire it won't be . moing

Not sure why, but I'm getting some huge battery drain from Android System. Over 60%. What could be causing it? I took it off the charger at 7 this morning and its already at 80%. Here's some pics....

There is no led in /sys/class

I think it's at /sys/class/leds/button-backlight

Has anyone tried this on the Note 2? Is it possible?

If you wanna try go ahead but I
Wouldn't recommend you to do so! would say no.it requires to be ported. And that be hard with no sources. Also to diff cpu

+1 my friend!! IMO its not worth the risk.... im a "junky" and I have the Note2 but it didnt even cross my mind of trying it... the risk is too much for the potential gain you may get....
