Depends on your phone and network. Those of us on Vodacom have had it for a while already.

Dont wait, Root & RoM ... and its 4.4.2

Not if you have an Ascend P6.

Depends on your phone. Some phones have been on KitKat for a while.

He says S4 so I'm assuming it's not a HUEHUEHUEHUEWEI Ascend P6 S4

And the Cell C folk? Anybody know?

It's getting to that point now. Stock ROM with bloatware gets real old real quick.

Is that how you pronounce it? Been wondering.

I've just got off the phone with China, this is indeed the correct way to spell and pronounce HUEHUEHUEHUEWEI.

Also had KitKat for ages on my Note 3. Vodacom stock, Cell C as the network.

Omega rom V20 for galaxy S4. That is all.

In all seriousness, if you're already rooted, try Omega. But yes, you can install any of the appropriate roms from sammobile - but they all come with samsung bloat.

I have used all the roms before incl CM, Omega and so on, but prefer the vanilla versions from Samsung. I do get rid of the bloatware with Titanium backup.

Thx for the confirmation

You can disable all the Samsung apps if you want to, and it will not show up in your app tray.

Easy peasy.

Sure.
But you don't get the optimised kernels and nice tweaks like wanam xposed,do you? (or can you?)

 

[LCBXX]

Omega, Slim, Carbon, NeatROM - Why wait for your Carrier to catch a wake-up?

 

[Maverick Jester]

Sure.

If you root, sure...

Yes i know - but does it work with stock roms? I'm asking cos I honestly don't know, I was pleasantly surprised when I moved from wanamlite to omega and it still worked.
