Samsung Galaxy S III (3) Gets Android 4.4.2 Kitkat Update (AT&T, T-Mobile)

According to that picture the S3 had some beautiful colors.
Anyways, Thanks to DocHoliday77 over at XDA, you can now get the TouchWiz 4.4.2 Kitkat version for your Galaxy S3. Long awaited update, we still haven't reached the OTA, but I am running this ROM, and I have to say it's smoother than a baby's bottom....
The RAM Typically uses under 800MB as to the previous builds used around 1GB out of 1.56GB, thanks to Kitkat we now have more available RAM as the it is not a resource hog.

According to almost anyone owning a Galaxy S3, the 4.3 Update was the Windows Vista of Android for the flagship phone.

All in all I don't believe this phone will have many more updates available through OTA (if any), this means we will probably start relying on Cyanogenmod of Developers for the latest versions of Android available.

Be sure to grab this update/ROM over at XDA and give Doc a quick thanks, or even a donation. Link is below for all of that good stuff.


Though it says for "T-mobile" It still works on an AT&T variant as well, I am running that rom from that page on my AT&T variant as we speak.

Anyways, I hope you enjoy this build for the Galaxy S3! Much more news to come.

Signing off..

Samsung Galaxy S3 Google Play Edition (USA Versions)

By
Samsung Galaxy S3 Google Play Edition (USA Versions) I'm excited to bring you this news today, Galaxy S3 users can now download the Google Play Edition of Android (As close as you will get to it) only on USA Versions as of right now. It all started when I got inspired by the sunbeam live wallpaper (How loco?). I decided to disect a Cyanogenmod Rom, first I started with AOKP, but was not satisfied by all the more options. Options are never a bad thing, but when you start with a 4.4.2 Nightly build of AOKP, You don't know where the heck the lockscreen settings are, or in fact I don't think it added any options for the lockscreen ring. They are still working on it, the rom is pretty crystal clear, and pure right now as it is. I decided to revise. I turned to the CM10.2 version, and started to play with it, luckily I soon got all the Google Apps installed correctly with no problem, and now I'm working on a revised build of the 4.4.2 Google Play Edition. I know just...

HTC One, US Carriers, to Receive 4.4 Kitkat Update!

By
HTC One, US Carriers, to Receive 4.4 Kitkat Update! The HTC one, the ONE HIT WONDER Android Phone of 2013 will be receiving Android 4.4 Kitkat. This is great news because 4.4 is the newest Android Operating system version out there (for those of you who did not know) and so with Kitkat, this phone will be good as new again! The HTC One recently has gotten Sense 5, will this Kitkat rom be bare, or have Sense... 6?? Who knows. Exciting as that is, when all phones finally get 4.4, I'm sure Android will have something new out like 4.6 or 5.1 I don't know, they seem to move very fast, but at least you're able to get the Operating system upgrades via Cyanogenmod. HTC One has the Beats audio built in, and with root on your own device you're able to get ahold of the beats audio mod engine (How cool?) It would be really good to have an HTC One, with Stock Google Android, but I doubt HTC would let that happen through OTA updates (Over The Air) Android Guru Guy; Dayto...
