Right! KIT KAT HAS BEEN RELEASED!!!
The purpose of this thread is to discuss the features, possibilities, difficulties, ports etc. of the latest OS by Google for the Galaxy S4 i9505.
As far as CM goes, they have clarified on their Google+ page that it'll be a while before they start working on Android 4.4.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2506082
If you would be copying other people posts to start a new thread at least fix the links and device name. -_-;
Seriously man? Not cool.

Why does it say '...for the Galaxy S4 I9500'
It should be I9505

Cm11 has been Released unofficially for the T-Mobile variant. I'm running it now only the camera is borked. You can flash it for the i9505.

I had one built and working previously but changes made to the CM kernel a while back rendered it non working. I'll have to commandeer my wife's S3 and start working on it again. I still need to find time to work on our S4 as well

Try updating through OTA on the phone. If it says there are no updates available wait a few more days. Your country will probably get the MDM/MDN/MD2 update sooner or later. If you don't want to wait you can find a number of threads in this forum that teaches you how to flash new ROMs through a program called Odin.

You can find ROMs to download here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2252855
As for Odin tutorial you can search on Google. You will easily find it. Odin works the same way since the very first Galaxy so there is no way to screw it up.

Did you also end up with the international modem?
And if so did you retain LTE?
It doesnot change modem you should flash on top of current stock rom only clean dalvik and cache. And flash

The i9500 is clocked at 1.6 the i9505 has the same processor as ours.

The only thing that should be different between the i9505 and the I337/I337M is the modem. Wifi is managed by the kernel, so this shouldn't be affected. However, US cellular bands could be different from European (850/2100 MHz). The Snapdragon 600 supports 850, 900, 1700, 2100 and more. As long as you flash the modem specific for your region you shouldn't have any issues, considering the hardware is exactly the same.
I think the biggest fear people faced on this forum was about possibly bricking the device since most of the carrier specific firmwares weren't publicly released yet.

I don't know about that. I've flashed Mokee, Slim, Omni, and now Sensonic and all are stable for me. But to each his own. I would be really surprised if an official update came from Sammy, the device is old (in the tech-world) and that's how it is. Sorry your experience with customs isn't stellar...
