As we all know, Ubuntu touch is really a amazing HMI and I really wanna try it on my phone!
But it is still under developing and cannot even make a call or send a SMS, terrible! So I have to keeping using CM10.1, i.e. Android 4.2.2.
Really looking forward!!!
it will take a lot of time it hardly ever gets updated and it's not a primary OS and our device is getting old a lot of people have shifted from the galaxy s2 these days so your best option would be to be patient

This is bad news, I think our ace community is quite large and our ace is still fairly new. Anyways lets just keep on doing what we do best and that is makeing our ace the best it can be, we don't have to be on the main forum.

Get us a CM9 port, that would boost the activity here
bad news... I don't know what coolya said about definately having an official version, but after that I really doubt it boys. Honestly so far CM7.2 by vo-1 is a very good rom, in my opinion is the most complete and stable and something tells me that it won't get any better than this.
I mean even if we won't get official, our ACE is still one hell of phone with this version of cyanogenmod on. And afterall, it's just a phone!!!!
In my opinion the thing is, all ROM cookers are separately working instead all collecting under the same roof and starting a big project (pointing at MIUI). Most of the phones which have CynogenMod or MIUI are on the main index, bacause? Its because those ROMs are made collectively by many developers at the same time.
It goes like this:
The bigger the project is - the more bugs spawn - more suggestions come - more mods come for them - more fixes - more themes - which ultimately leads to more activity in that particullar forum.
So as a viewpoint from a user, I'd like if all our developers come together no matter how much education he has about Android but they can contribute to the bigger goals. Make an official ROM for our Ace with widest possibilities of modding in it. I think we would gain our position back on the main index.
So what do you guys think?

I talk about it exactly as you said in the very recent past and never got an answer for that. I absolutely agree with you.
The bottom line is this... mobile phone market as every electronics market is moving so fast that our ACE is now cosidered an old device. Keeping that in mind along with the fact that ACE happens to be a mid range phone then game is over. So if we haven't got an official CyanogenMod by now that means that will never gonna get one. Actually if we haven't got anything by late January 2012 GAME IS OVER!!!

Copy that. But the device never gets older till it gets updates from the dedicated dev's who constantly develop for it, making those phones accomplish bigger tasks than the newer phones. Samsung Galaxy S is the biggest instance, which's still on the index.
Couldnt care less
Cheers

What about LG optimus and optimus one and optimus v There are many devices far older than ACE, but the only problem is that Ace was never released in USA and hence we got lesser devs than those devices, hence classified as low activity
Well I dont know about the rest of the world But in the uk ace is very alive. Its still advertised on tv. 3, vodafone and carphone warehouse all use it in there adverts. Before the ace I had my ace I had an iphone and a gt540. Both ipressive devices for the time, but my ace is special. I havent loved a phone like this since my old w550. I love this phone, I adore it. And with the new software coming out its just as fast and stable as the old galaxy s. It not just a phone, its art! All who read this. . . Stop, look at your phone. Give the finger prints a wipe away. Hold it to the light and look. Now tell me its not stunning. Who cares where they put it. We love it!

Seems that some users feel less of a man (or woman) when their phone is not on the main thread. Couldnt agree with you more. Who cares where the thread is.
Cheers
well said!!
still a fantastic phone with genius devs like yourself releasing roms for it... who cares where the thread is, the ace devs being around is trillion times more important then where the thread is, for me its bookmarked, and even if it aint bookmarked can still find it in the drop-down list so whats the problem?

The whole point is about activity, not the place where we are at the moment. No offence; but with people like your opinion won't even care if the whole board is removed.
hello guys, at the moment i own an apple iphone 4 jailbroken, and i had some issues with the device's hardware since 2 years ago, so im thinking of selling it and get a new phone, BUT i DONT want to go at apple again, so 4S is not an option for me.
i searched a bit and im interested into Samsung Galaxy S III
about its hardware is a top end phone atm, but im a bit feared about the Android os because ive heard some bad things from friends users of lower end android phones. so im refering at you guys who own and use SGS3 with normal and rooted os to advice me about its stability over time and usage on apps
So my final question is, SGS3 with Android 4.0.4 ICS stock or rooted, did you have any problems with it? laggs on menus/apps over time of usage or crashes or reboots etc?
Cause with iphone 4 and ios jailbroken i had it for 2 years and i never encountered a single error or crash and never had to format it to stock firmware due to problem except when i was updating versions of ios.
thank you for your time guys
i look forward your replys to talk about it and find a conclusion

Moving to Q&A
Hi,
I was in the exactly same position as you a few weeks ago.
My last phone was an iphone 4, too, and like you, I did not want to have an apple product anymore. So I went with the GS3 and I love it!
I have it rooted and installed a lot of stuff, works like a charm though!
Only problem I encountered is that I cannot install anything right now, keep having a bug with the app market... This is very uncomfortable, but I guess stuff like this happens. I might need to restore my phone to bypass this problem. But this is not limited to the GS3, it's a problem with android.
Otherwise Android is a high improvement compared to the iOS. I can now literally do anything I want. The Galaxy S3 runs smoothly, the battery usage is good in my opinion and it has a lot of power for complex programs.
If you have more questions, ask away
Hi all,
I'll eventually buy a S3, that's why I am posting here, but before I do that I want to leave here my questions / complains.
I own a SAMSUNG GT-I9000 running a CyanogenMod 10 nightly build 10-20120918.
I've been using this phone for 2 years and I've tried several ROMS.
My experience with this phone and with this OS is rather disappointing since most of the time the phone is in alpha or beta.
I mean all the ROMS I've tried had bugs (TouchWiz maybe is stable but I do not like it).
For example, I power on my phone and the OS crashes, after some minutes when I manage to get to the home screen I get "Google Search isn't responding. Do you want to close it?". Not to mention that some apps need at least 10 sec to launch.
I really appreciate the effort of the developers but I just don't get it that are appearing ROMS with such severe bugs.
So I've decided to buy a new phone but once again I am between the devil and the deep blue sea.
I've spent some time in shops testing Galaxy S3, HTC One X and IPhone 5 and wondered:
1. How can it be that Galaxy S3 with quad processor on board is performing so bad compared to dual core of IPhone 5? All apps on IPhone are opening almost instantly, not the case on S3. I can clearly see that S3 is not as responsive as IPhone 5 and if you have done the same as I did you cannot deny it.
2. How HTC manages to build such a beautiful OS and Samsung not? TouchWiz looks like is made for kids just like the custom ROMS for it. I know Sense is not perfect but at least is an eye catcher. There is not even one theme for S3 that appeals to me. Or is there someone here who likes to see pink unicorn as logo? If I were 10 years old maybe I would like to have icons with popey, smurfs, heidi and barbie on my phone, but I am not. So the most among you I think...
Maybe can someone can answer these questions...
As I said I ll probably go for the S3 for several reasons but these things really bother me. I'm afraid it 'll be the same story again...Having a super smartphone and not even able to make a phone call...
Are you some sort of idiot....if you have so much to complain about dont buy the damn phone! Dont come on here whining about it! Not really the best place to be comparing the processing power to an iphone is it??

Here's a bit of advice:
DON'T SPAM THE BOARD,
if you just want to complain about every freakin' ROM, don't do it at all..
test things before posting cr*p like this,
GET STABLE ROMS!!!
WIPE DALVIK BEFORE RUNNING OSs
BUY THIS GOD FOR SAKEN PHONE, GET MIUI AND BE HAPPY!!!
AND IF YOU DON'T LIKE MIUI, GET CM9 IT'S THE MOST STABLE TO DATE.
By the way: Thanks, you just ruined my evening. Cheers, mate! Have a good day

The beauty of android lies in the flexibility and customization.
S3 is way better than any Apple
If you like Apple, go and buy it, what are you comparing for?
There are many stable roms for all phones, I use viking, with nova launcher, I am happy.
Everyone has different set of needs and preferences, don't waste your own or others time by convincing others or asking us to convince you.
Be yourself.

Oh, look. You just insulted someone!
Report no. 5 in one day. One more and I'll break my own record.
Oh, and you did just reply..
Please, go spam Rootzwiki, or some other forum, but not this masterpiece..
You are answering with fanaticism just like the Iphone funs. I didn't post to argue with you. If you want you can keep your eyes closed and simply get what they give to you. I like android more as the other OS and I like Samsung phones more as the other phones. I think all the people behind the scenes, in the community or even at Samsung, can do better.
If there are no themes you like, and no roms you like... Instead of "complaining" Why don't you take the time to learn how to theme and customize a rom then you can customize it the way you want? Devs do this for free, you honestly have NO right to complain. Do you pay them? Are they your employees? No.. So you have no right to complain.
If you do not like what the community has to offer you can
1. Leave the community
2. Learn how to do things yourself and stop depending on other people to do things for you especially if you do not like anything that's offered...

Hey Everyone,
I am very new to the Android Community. I have recently Upgraded to the UK Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE Ready International (EE/Orange/T-Mobile). I hope to have a few other Android devices in the near future. (Nexus 10 or Nexus 7)
I have to say I love it. After playing around with it for a week. I have realised how imprisoned I was with the iPhone even after Jailbreaking.
I am now thinking of rooting the device. I have done serious reading on XDA about the I9305 and people were sort of on the fence with getting it, as support for the development will be limited, the modem of this particular model uses a Qualcomm Chip. Obviously once more people invest in the I9305, more roms/mods will be ported.
I would love to see Cyanogenmod or ParanoidAndroid ported to this device. Only time will tell but I am really impatient. LOL
How would I get these guys to port?
What is the general waiting time with these things?
I don't want to come across as rude. To be honest im perfectly happy with the stock JB+Touchwiz but I love to tinker with things.
Regards
bleepsake
same here. cant wait for some roms to be ported.
by the way it was in part due to your youtube vid that i upgraded to this device:good:
awesome thanks dude. editing the review of this phone. the review is based on someone that wants to upgrade to an android phone coming from an iOS'ers point of view.

I would also like to know how long it usually takes for roms to get ported. I'm getting my phone this week and I can't wait to replace the stock firmware.
If there is a big enough demand i can see it happening but maybe not roms like CM due to the fact they don't own one

Hi Friends,
can I Please ask which Kitkat, I'd reckon the Korean official port, is the a best match for my Galaxy S3 i9300? I have heard that there may be some bits being odd but I am not all about the small details, I am merely interested into bettering my phone performance and overall output.
I hold ClockWork Recvorey 4.4 and SuperSu installed. Thanks for all in advance
Nvermind, I have had it figure out. Great job to all who did not step forward

5hrs is not alot of time to wait for support.
This device is old, All the maintainers etc have long since moved on. There is only about 3-4 of us who give support now. None of us are programmers and do so in our free time and this being a weekend and all.
Besides 99% of the info is out there like you proved and only need to search for it.
Certainly didn't mean to sound frustrating, didn't imply to say anything also, just I have no know idea about android developement , although I am CS myself. I just want my games to run smooth, not like the way I play civilization 2 rev on my i9300 now.
