Ok I am going to make it Abundantly Clear. So there is ZERO I mean ZERO CONFUSION.

What this is NOT -

1. This is not a Weekly. This is not Stable. If you are looking for either, you are in the wrong thread.
2. This is Not a Daily Driver. If you are looking for one, go to SlimKat Thread.
3. This is not Fully Functional Picture Perfect Rom. You do not get to Complain and call names on the thread if you expected anything else.
4. This Build does have bugs. Those that are known to me are listed Bellow.

What this is -

1. This is an Early Alpha Build. To those who don't know, that's prior Stage of a Beta or Weekly Build.
2. Its a Preview of things to come. If you notice, my list of Features is lacking quiet a few of Slim Features.
3. Yes there are bugs. The ones I do know are
   • Root does not Stick. See Notes Bellow.
   • Stock Camera clicks but does not take pictures. When you switch to Video Mode, you'd get error "Unable to Connect to Camera". Afterwards you have to reboot to clear.
   • Some of the 3rd Party Camera Apps work. For Ex. Open Camera, VivaVideo
   • APN Menu does not show any of the APNs for at least Sprint Variant.
   • When connected to WiFi, MMS are delayed. Only seems to affect D2VZW.

NOTES -

1. This is a D2GSM Build. So it is equally applicable to D2ATT as well as D2TMO. So use D2ATT Build unless I specified Otherwise.
   
2. You must Flash SuperSU [STABLE][2015.01.20] SuperSU v2.4.5 as a Zip file along after flashing Rom.
3. If you posted a bug/issue not listed above, without a Logcat, I will ignore it.
4. Unless specified otherwise, do not dirty flash on top of SlimKat or Other Roms. If you did and then complained even with Logcat, I will ignore.

d2usc

Went looking at the files and I didn't see a d2usc build. Will there be one? Or is there a build that works with it already? Thanks.

You need to be Applauded. For once, I have an answer!

To answer your question, I posted but took down that build. Yes there will be a build. I just didn't make latest one as there were very few KK4.4 taker for the rom in USC Category. I will have one up in the same place for you.

Thank you, can't wait to try it out. Has anyone posted any feedback on it yet?

You have a Build Up. Check the link for the Unofficial Builds in OP. For reviews, look under my ATT and VZW threads.

Gave it a flash. The boot splash was scrambled but the animation started and it booted up after a few minutes. It felt smooth but the home button and the capacitive touch buttons did not work. Had to enable Nav bar to get around. Signal and data were good and everything else I tried worked fine so far. Thanks again for putting the USC build up.

Yes, both the scrambled image and Button not working was reported. Fix underway. Fixed in the New build.

I'm very grateful that this has been ported to our device (I've ran SlimKat for ages and love it), but I'm totally unable to edit the APN settings. I use a T-Mobile SIM in my device, and while SlimKat will allow me to change the APN data, the APN settings area in this ROM simply says "access point name settings are not available for this user," and I'm unable to save new APN entries after I've created them.

I've followed steps outlined here, but they haven't helped the issue.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

My understanding is you can't use a tmo sim on us cellular phones. Might want to look here for more info.

I'm using the T-Mobile SIM right now on SlimKat 4.4 actually. I can only get data and texts (no voice), but it's working quite well. I've also never spoken to USC about unlocking the device.
