Welcome to NoleKat.T310!

This is my tweaked version of the stock touchwiz experience. It is based on the UK KitKat firmware (has more languages than US version). It is Touchwiz based and somewhat mildly debloated.

The stock kernel is included. I'll leave the kernel developing to others for now.


FEATURES
  • Based on T310 UK KitKat firmware
  • Deodexed
  • De-Knoxed
  • init.d (a few tweaks included like sdcardreadahead and minfree)
  • App Ops enabled
  • 4-Way Reboot Menu
  • Removed annoying "SDcard inserted" message after reboot
  • Rooted
  • Busybox
  • Custom NoleKat Boot Animation
  • sqlite
  • Boot sound removed
  • Most all apps that are available in the Play Store have been removed
  • Added secondary symbols to keyboard
  • External sdcard fix for KitKat
  • Removed annoying Safe Volume and Airplane Mode popups

INSTALLATION
  1. Download v1.0 full rom zip and v1.1.update zip from link below
  2. Boot into your custom recovery (recommend Philz Touch)
  3. Perform a factory reset / full wipe (rom install does not wipe data)
  4. Flash full rom, then the update
  5. Reboot and enjoy
  6. Report back any bugs you find

I recommend a full wipe for this version, but you can always try a dirty flash. :cowboy:

What about Portuguese?

Have looked for a flawless working stock rom for a long time but there always seems to be something that doesn't work for me. Am using the bin Droid rom now but keep getting force closes, some random reboots and wifi sometimes just doesn't turn on...

Can you please confirm that everything is working in this one?

Thanks for the help and for the great work.

Yes, Portuguese is included.

I can not guarantee that it will be perfect, but it does work well for me.

I couldn't flash it with TWRP, but flashed fine with philz and seems to work fine so far.

Thanks. Will give it a go tonight and will post feedback in the morning. Need to backup apps first with tb. Where can I get Philz recovery? Anyone have a quick link? ??

OK so I just couldn't hold it and tried the Rom. Full of confidence I simply dirty flashed it with twrp over bindroid without wiping and voilà! Only cleared Cache and dalvik cache after flashing. Apparently everything is working fine but will have to use it for a couple of days to make sure. Su binary says it needs updating but I still have root access. So no need for that...

Thx for all the help and for the great rom

Just curious what version of TWRP you used. I tried exactly as you did but the flash would quickly fail in TWRP. Flashed fine in Philz and I put TWRP back on for my backup. So far, all working well!

Yeah. I updated to the latest version to be able to flash kk roms. Now I'm just unsure whether to change the build prop settings to have a tab 4 layout or not. I fear that it might interfere with other stuff and make the room unstable. Don't think I'll be able to hold myself though...

You most likely have an outdated version of TWRP. You should be using 2.7.1.0.
No. I was using 2.7.1.0. Oh well. It was easy enough with Philz, I just prefer TWRP
