[Q] CM11 and Android 4.4.3 - General Questions and Answers

So there's news of 4.4.3 hitting android users soon but mostly nexus users are getting it first, but how do you get the update when you have CM11 installed? Does it act as a any other update would with stock?

if your saying CM11 (4.4.2) will update to 4.4.3 thats a no, it looks like 4.4.3 might be a huge update so most likely cyanogenmod will work on it and put out a CM11.1.

So if and when 4.4.3 is released by CM I'd have to do a full wipe and flash?

No, not nessesary to wipe...but the question is when cm will be merged with 4.4.3..hope will be soonâ˜ș

Setting > About this device > update cyanogenMod
Then download the lastest nightly and it will offer to reboot and install all by itself.
No wipe, no install of gapp required.
Enjoy

No not really, trebuchet is a little smoother it seem but the way i understand it is that 4.4.3 is only 92mb on nexus units and is mainly bug fixes and security enhancements. As far as cm11, i havent noticed any big differences but i think theyre easing us into cm11S.

The nightlies should be merged with the new source. I doubt the stable releases are 4.4.3 that's how most of the ROMs are right now.

flashing 4.4.3 questions

I have slim kat and trinity kernel on my Nexus 5 on 4.4.2
If i flash 4.4.3 on to my nexus 5, will it erase my phone to factory settings?
What is the best way to flash this update on to my phone.
thanks
Why not just flash the weekly (possibly unstable) Slimkat 4.4.3 build or wait for the stable release?

Upgrading to a new Android version requires a clean install (it's recommended at least) so backup your data first.

It's recommended, definitely
That said, most of us SlimKat users have successfully dirty flashed with no bugs or ill effects

CM11 is CM11. Only difference is the device tree (drivers etc).. All functions are identical. As with most large development teams, they have one master branch with all teh core features then just device trees for each device to make the ROM work.
CM11s is slightly different though as it is only for the OnePlus and has some unique features. Porting a pre-built ROM is always more problematic than compiling one from code though
I asked the question but I already knew the answer.

Ah ok.
CM11 for G2 is the same as CM11 for N5
CM11s port for G2 (From OnePlus) is different to CM11 for N5

I would like to use the official ones they are testing for our phone. Can someone lend me a hand?

No such thing as CM11S nightlies.
Only CM11 nightlies, which are located here: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=bacon
Mind me asking what the difference is between the 2 cm11 Roms?

CM11S is an outdated CM11 ROM meant to be an official OEM release. It comes with Hexo CM11 theme.
CM11 updates every night, bug fixes fixed real-time pushed to you every day.

CM11S isn't really "outdated" its just the most stable release that passes the QA (Quality Assurance) test and is certified by Google.
CM11 more or less gives you a preview of what will be available in the next OTA. You can add your CM11S apps onto CM11 nightlies. http://www.cmxlog.com/11/bacon/ for the changelog.
To OP, you could have simply Google searched your answer.... next time please do that.

Only reason why I call it outdated is because when CM11 had the latest touch fix to fix ghost touches, I'm all up to my friends saying "THE TOUCHES FEELS SO GOOD U SHOULD TRY IT OH WAIT HAHAHAH".... Yeah... I'm weird.

Well... to be fair, you can use CM11S and use a custom kernel to have the new touchscreen firmware.
It just hasn't been updated because they're still working on other things other than the touchscreen firmware.
I do agree that they should do a small hotfix on that part, instead of waiting for everything all at once.

That's true, but it's more of a reason to convince people to switch from 11S to 11 or just AOSP custom roms in general.
But you're still missing out on newer potential features for the phone still only available to find on AOSP over 11S....which required a rom upgrade, like the screen artifact update.

Actually CM11S XNPH33R + kernel with the new touchscreen firmware has no problems... strange right?
No screen artifacts whatsoever

But that's the thing.... It doesn't have screen artifacts because it doesn't have the partial display commit update in the room so kernel developers don't add that in... Right? o.o

Yeah I got it, RIPng uploaded it on the Camera thread. Good to get your version on Mahdi tho!
Actually...38R is already outdated compared to CM11 nightlies God knows how long it took for them to get it certified...could have been a week or two.

[Q] What ROM Can I Jump To?

Ok I'm lost. I've been reading around for the past few hours & I've been out of the loop for too long to make sense of this.
I have scrosler's [ROM][1/27/14] - Stock Rooted Knoxless - VRUCML1 - Android 4.3. I have the unlocked bootloader because I have TWRP installed (right?). I did NOT take the OTA to get to 4.3.
With baseband VRUCML1 can I jump to any other ROMS still? Or what should/shouldn't I be looking for?
I'm thinking of trying CM11 or SlimKat
If you can list the version then that would be great. If you do have TWRP installed, yes your bootloader is unlocked and you can flash any Touchwiz rom up to 4.3 or any AOSP rom.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 4
Darn, only up to 4.3...
Versions:
Android: 4.3
Baseband: I535VRUCML1
Build #: JSS15J.I535VRUCML1
TWRP: v2.6.3.1

I think you misinterpreted me. You can flash any AOSP rom that you want since you have TWRP installed. You're limited to 4.3 roms for Touchwiz. CM and SlimKat are ok.
Word of advice, if you're looking to use KitKat AOSP, the S3 has unified builds. One zip for multiple carriers. KitKat AOSP roms will be listed as "d2lte" when you search for recently updated downloads.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 4
As you told you have custom recovery and unlocked bootloader...
I have tried many ROMs and personally will suggest you to go with cm11 .
Slim is also cool but cm has good features and gets updated quickly as there is a Professional team working on it.
Where as on slim if some one ports or adds some more stuff then u will get update which won't be ota ( cm will have some ota update )
Cm is cool ASOP is also cool.

Next time I'm dropping the $ on an unlocked phone so I don't have to "think" about what I can & can't do (Stupid Verizon).

You're welcome, always here to help out :good::good:
Also, I'm thinking the same as well in terms of an unlocked phone. Tired of worrying about which OTA is not for my phone or things like that.

This is actually a question I've had for a while. What sorts of things have OTA updates on CM? Does CM update "OTA" often or rarely? I used CM years ago on my OG Droid, but they didn't have updates back then. I keep hearing there are some kinds of updates on CM, but I can never find out what this really means... can you elaborate for me, please?

It depends actually if the developers will fix and update your device ... its on luck ... for example if the developer has the device and he will update for himself. Also it depends on device if it is capable of running the new android , means the hardware capablitity .... You can install cm11 as they are fast in fixing stuff and if you have some problem , xda will help you as cm is common on xda...
I had used cm11 on galaxy tab 2 and it worked like charm ... i was update ( android version v4.4.4 where as on stock they use v4.2 ) f***ing nice.... thanks to xda and cm.... love you all....

Oxygen Os for One+1

Hi all..
I'm currently running Euphoria rom and I'd like to install Oxygen OS on my 1+1.
Where can I found the latest version?
There seems to be several versions but I'm not sure what is the latest one and what is the version that supports Oneplus One and NOT OnePlus Two.
Thanks.
