Samsung announced the Tab s3 yesterday,but we still dont have even a single ROM Port from the tab s2 let alone the tab s3. There are many reasons to not jump ship to the tab s2 or s3 like poorer screen resolution compared to our original Tab S.
Please devs,do us a favor and make some ROM ports. Thanks

I have 3 roms for the tab s, and am part of basically the only team keeping development alive. The way your post is laid out is like we get paid for this. You have google at your finger tips. We don't do things just for you, we do this for free.
If you want a tab s2 or s3 so much go get one. Your post seems like you do.

Personally I don't see why anyone would want a port when we have lineage os 14.1. No brainer if you ask me.
I'd use Lineage OS myself if somebody figured out how to make Netflix steams play at FullHD or HD resolution on hardware and software that they don't want to support.
As for the Tab S3, my first thought is that finally a flagship android tablet gets the specs it deserves. I can see myself buying one, perhaps around the holidays when the prices should drop. It's great to see someone still building premium Android tablets.

You really have no idea who DarkExistence is don't you?
Why use bloated TouchWiz ROM when you can get a near stock Android anyway?
Beside there's no guarantee that every feature on Tab S2 will be successfully ported on Tab S.

As title, anyone know when? I see some tablet from HTX or Galaxy already have it!
we'll have it the samsung way. i.e when ice cream comes out, we'll be given the 3.2 update to 'cheer up'.
I won't mind if the tab doesn't see 3.2
I just want ICS when it is released. But of course with Samsungs track record, that'll be next year ;P
how do you guys know we will be getting ics? Have it been mentioned somewhere?

Wishful thinking!?!?!
It'll come when it comes... Why is everyone always crying about when the next update to a device will come?????
I don't really have any issues with my Tab now. I love it, works perfect and does just about everything I need it to do. I haven't even rooted it yet and really haven't had a reason to either.
Instead of worrying about when the next update is coming just try and enjoy what you got.
Anyway every time an update comes for any device (either tablet or phone) the post about "how it wasn't what was expected" or "its buggy" or its..... Well ya... Anyway all those threads start clogging up the forums. But I have to admit those threads do make for some good reading....
On second thought... COME ON SAMMY!!!!! Give em an update already....
Side note: please feel free to flame!!!

I had read in another thread that google made an agreement with manufacturers that they have to give updates to the newest version of Android within 18 months of it's release. Now then they said "It's release" I hope they mean the device, and not the Android version.
But I don't see why we wouldn't get ICS, as it'll really help in terms of Android tablet sales, because it will bring on a TON more apps for the tablets, which is the weak point in terms of Android tablets selling.

Make a donation to PhantomHacker, he is working on a vanilla 3.2 ROM. As for the other questions, we will see ICS running on Tab eventually, the devs will make sure.
The dev's can only develop if they have the source. But that's not the only hurdle! The dev's will also need Samsung drivers for the tab 10.1 too. To get both we need Samsung to release an ICS kernel source (I'm sure somebody will correct me if I'm wrong). You can see what happens without the source now as the 10.1 development is pretty much stagnant.

Yeah, I get the sense that a good portion of users here don't really even do much with their devices other than futz around with rooting, fllash alternate ROMs, and obsess over benchmark scores. It's good to optimize your tablet/phone/magic wand but the point of these things is to use the apps, mainly.

ya, sr for this issue.
To all: why need to care about my profile?
I don't know my Tab got issue or the OS or ..? Cause: view HD video, sometime the video are freeze but the sound are okay, quit the video player then the sound of video still playing =) Need to restart Tab to view again, anyone got it as me ?
I had an Asus Transformer which was quickly updated to Honeycomb 3.2 to be really truthful aside from transitions being a bit smoother I didn't notice much difference in day to day performance over 3.1. I'm much more intersted in seeing Samsung get ICS pushed out asap as soon as it is ready.
Here's the situation, I currently have a Sensation, T-Mobile. Figured out how to Root, how to flash. Also figured out I don't ever want a phone running stock EVER EVER EVER again. So now I'm going to buy a Amaze Or Galaxy S2. No I don't need it, but this **** Is cool. I'm 40 years old, have 5 daughters, an ex wife, and a good wife, so learning, and messing with these phones Is really something I enjoy.
From what I see Samsung seems to always have more devs than HTC. I also THINK wholegrain Cm Is pretty important as I see it, because there support leads to MIUI and more stuff. So here are my questions.
1. Will CM develop for both phones, ?
2. Will MIUI come to both?
3. Will one receive more help than the other?
Please feel free to let me know If any of my thinking Is wrong. I'm a noob and I'm 40 so I'm the worst kind. Ha

TMI . You should get the Galaxy S2 over the Amaze. CyanogenMod is already available for the Galaxy S2 and so is MIUI (so obviously the Galaxy S2 has more development going on).

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

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.

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?

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.

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...

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
