You both need to look for the thread in the forum with instructions. Now I can't recall which one it is, but one or both of the kit kat rom threads have the instructions and links to what you need. It can be done for sure. I also believe there is one or two other threads separate from the kit kat rom threads that posted it. Sorry, I was just checking through and don't have the time to get you the link. But look for them where I stated they are, kitkat rom threads.

Thanks to you both for your quick replies. I would love to stay with 4.4 but the battery life is woeful, it can lose 50% charge in two hours just reading (aldiko).........I hope that a better 4.4 is achieved because I haven't even left yet and I want to come back
