How to upgrade from Gingerbread WF07 to a CM Based Kit Kat ROM on the SHW M110S using a Patch
Basic Considerations that will help you to restore your current ROM [HIDE]First make a Backup of your current ROM, such that you can return to it, IF the Kit Kat ROM is not what you expected it to be. How?
a) When Using a tegrak Kernel on the M110S , you can get this done on the bootup screen , by entering it and making a system and also a dbdata/data backup of your phone, which can be restored by using the terak kernel again IF WF07 ROM is what suits you best.
Your backup will be placed in the Tegrak Folder in the Internal SD card...so save this to your PC or external SD card for safe keeping.
b) When using a Speedmod kernel, you need to enter recovery first to make a nandroid backup of your system and data
Your Backup will be placed in the ClockWorkMod Folder of your SD card. Which can be restored by using the speedMod kernel again IF WF07 ROM is what you desire.
c). You should also use SMS & Contacts Backup apps from play store as well as sync your contacts , calendar etc with Google using your Google account. You can use the same apps to restore them in your new ROM, [/HIDE]
What you should know about this Kit Kat Patch on the M110S[HIDE]a) It is basically using an i9000 CWM and Patching it for M110S, as such the CWM used will only be useful to install the Kit kat ROM, and its basic functions like making a nandroid backup, will not be working after patching, as the patch will change its build prop to M110S
b) mic used for recording as well as ringtone for incoming call, is not working after the patch is executed on any CM Based i9000 Kit Kat ROM
c) When charging, avoid using the Device as touch becomes erratic.
d) Actually you can use any Kit kat ROM but because once the patch is applied further flashing fails to boot the Phone, Gapps has to be prepacked with the ROM, So only [ROM][4.4.2][SHW M110S] Resurrection Remix® 4.4.2 KitKat v5.0.1 by @rodman01 is currently available by courtesy of Resurrection Remix Team.
So IF the above is acceptable to you, than you should use this Patch, as indeed Kit Kat will make your device perform much better. [/HIDE]The Kit Kat ROM's for Korean Galaxy S (SHW M110S) that have little to NO issues at the moment are
