Root [MetroPCS] [ROM] [BETA] [4.4.4] CyanogenMOD 11.0 Unofficial

Tested out the test posted the other day.
#1 Still had random reboots.
#2 Echo on my girlfriends side but not my other friends side. Both on Tmobile.
#3 Kernel crash when using speaker phone.
#4 Signal still all over the place on LTE but still works good.
#5 After two days, the LTE would never reconnect. Stuck on E.
#6 Speed was actually really good when it did crash.
#7 Only encountered one black screen lock up.
#8 I CANT WAIT for a stable daily driver of this rom. Sorry Im not good enough to help the progress.
#9 Wifi tether works. If I am on Xperion Rom, Kik Kat Beta 5 port, stock Tmobile rom, after the 3gb limit on my plan, no tehter works, even when using user agent switchers. I just used tether for 15gb on this rom to my netbook with no issues at all.

Well I've decided against flashing this new ROM and stick with Codingninja's build. No reboots, no lock screen o death (however it sometimes hesitates but always comes on). It tethers, Bluetooth works, LTE works, both of my cameras work. I would say this rom , for me anyways, is complete and stable, I understand the IR remote doesn't work but that's as limitation of cyanogen not the build. I'm happy

Any of the last posts with with hroaks and ninjas rom in any of these roms is the call volume fixed?

I have been using Ninjas and call volume is fine actually. Everyone hears me just fine and I can hear them just fine. Just still the stupid kernel crash with speaker phone.


Still has black lock screen of death and and a few random reboots but works pretty damn good as is. Almost ready for a true daily replacement rom.

Thanks... new question... I have a UHS-I 16 GB micro SD card. I've done benchmark tests of my card and the internal memory. Results are below.

Internal Flash speeds
30.79 mb/s read
11.35 mb/s write

External Sandisk UHS-I speeds
125 mb/s read
50 mb/s write

Here's my question. Is there any way to install EVERYTHING to my micro sd card?
I had an HTC HD2 that I did this to, they called it "NativeSD" as opposed to "NAND". IS there a way to do that on this phone? Again I don't want a few apps on my external sd card. I want the entire rom on the external sd card. It's ~5 times as fast!!

I havent changed any settings either. All default settings.
Guess it could be luck of the draw. Im using the build from the link I posted which I do think is hes newest build.

Really weird because that is the same build I had sound problems with. Other than that I had no real problems with the ROM. Once I switched the lockscreen I didn't get the black screen death.

My only other question, when using data (after dialing *#*#4636#*#* and setting LTE/WCDMA), are we suppossed to get a 4G icon in the notification bar? All I ever got was 2 lines indicating data was turned on.
