[GROUP] GINGERBRDFORG3. READ and SUPPORT it. DO NOT OVERLOOK

Hello XDA members,
So you all know that our phone that is the Samsung Galaxy 3 came with Android 2.1 aka Eclair and Samsung promised to give an upgrade to 2.2 aka Froyo. The Samsung has fulfilled its promise of Froyo upgrade and now I think the Samsung will never look back to our Galaxy 3. Our phone has already been of an old generation of Galaxy 3 but still it features almost equally attractive features when compared to other low end Galaxy Series phones like Galaxy Fit and Galaxy Pop, infact its better certainly. But now there is no scope of getting an Android 2.3 aka Gingerbread upgrade on our Galaxy whereas similar phones like Fit are expected to receive it soon. Here on XDA also Marcellusbe tried to port CM7 with 2.3.4, he released Alpha 5 Fix 1 and since then he stopped the Development for CM6 port which he thinks would help in CM7. Looking at current conditions we cant even hope of Unofficial CM7 i.e. 2.3.4 by the end of a year or so.There is very slim chance of even getting it because it is difficult for Marcellusbe to work alone. These kinds of project involves a big team.
The Group GINGERBRDFORG3 is formed with the aim to gather support of other Galaxy 3 users to convince Samsung to give an official upgrade to Galaxy 3. Samsung cannot neglect the demands of thousands of its customer. Just think there are lots of Galaxy 3 members, If we all together will request Samsung I am pretty sure that Samsung will release a upgrade. If it can run on Fit it would easily run on Galaxy 3. Our phone has a huge market. If Samsung releases an upgrade to 2.3 and increases the life cycle of Galaxy 3 there will be no harm only a Win-Win situation for both Samsung and us.
Just think on it twice. I know if all of you will support we will soon be able to convince Samsung. To do so just be a part of GINGERBRDFORG3, sign the petitions, tweet on official twitter handle and recommend friends. Its free, simple and can be done in seconds. If all of you give just 15 minutes to this group we can work out wonders.

First request to Samsung has been posted via Twitter and Facebook. Stay connected to know more.

If this is going to work thenI want to support it but I'm almost 100% sure that this wont.

if you gather enough people this will work, but you will need around 40,000-50,000 people
htc decided to develop GB for the desire as well by demand of the community, but they were a hell lot of people...
what you need is some sort of a petition site where people can sign the claim of gingerbread for the galaxy 3 and then you need enough people to sign it.

Yes dude thats from where I draw inspiration - The Case Of HTC Desire. We can do everything, we have everything.. We can form faceook pages, we can form twitter accounts we can use petition sites which are available but What we lack is Supporters. Even after such a long request no one has come up to support. Though the thread has 45 views only including you only 2 people replied without much enthusiasm? Can anyone help to gather people here im 99.99% sure that we can do this..

The same thing happened with sony ericsson xperia x10 where due to huge demand sony decided to give gingerbread .thumbs up I am supporting this.

If you support this Kindly use the links to Sign the Petitons and also follow the official twitter account and post messages so that samsung can see that we really want 2.3.. Also suggest your friends and family.. Please. Its a request.

...
I agree! Signed!!

agree
First I read "do not overclock"..... what has it to do with gingerbread?
just signed the partition
But i have my doubts:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16236183&postcount=2

Signed both........

maybe you should post the links in the official CM7 forum, samsung forum and on every forum you find on the topic to get some more people.
there's a facebook page for gingerbread for the G3 but it only has some hundred followers.
maybe you get some blogs or news sites to post it in a news as well...
you have to do evereything to promote them, otherwise you won't have chance to get enough people.
and you should only use one petition, to concentrate the amount of people.
if you have two petitions, some people will only sign one of them, which will degrade the total number you get.

Go!! 2.3 Go!!
I have signed the 1st petition Lets make a Riot..

Absolutely I will post everywhere after some time.. And also for posting all around the INTERNET FORUMS I should gather a support here on XDA.. The topic has been raised today only. I have already created an official twitter account and soon facebook page is also expected. This is a whole new project so I wont keep any connection with that old facebook page. Yes, thanks for the Suggestion I will remove petition 2's link. .. PM me if you have more suggestion.

Signed 1st petition, hope it will work.

I have removed petition 1ST. Those who signed only the 1st petition are requested to visit the link to petition and sign it again. Those who signed the 2nd petition no need to revisit because the current petition is what you had in 2nd petition previously. I deleted 1st one because it was having only 18 signs as compared to 23 in 2nd one. Now we have one petition only so more focus is given on it.

signed!!!!

SIGNED!!!!

Signed and told friends
Sent from my GT-I5800 using XDA App

lets hope samsung will be kind for all the galaxy 3 lovers/owners and give it a try

Thank you to all who have signed and recommended to friends till now. We want more members.

[occupy nvidia]how you can help

First of all I'm no trying to troll nor spam, I am a T-mobile G2x user and over at the G2x forums we started a thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1360051 this thread is to get nvidia to release the source code for the tegra 2 chip, this way we can get more stable roms and yes fully functional ICS build.
I'm only doing this because the Atrix uses the same tegra 2 chip, thanks for your understanding.

I sent mine!
http://developer.nvidia.com/contact

Just to let you know, Nvidia is in no way required to release drivers for their SoC. That stuff is completely proprietary and doesn't fall under the GPL.

i sent mine!

Submitted!

Occupy ?
Dont think so, we're not pirates. I've sent an email to nvidia.
Hello,
Please release source code for the Tegra2, so the developers can support our mobile devices and tablets better and faster. I want to take more advantage of the Tegra2 chip inside my Motorola Atrix 4g and hoping that you could give the community a hand about this.
Regards, Sinan.

We are all aware of this, but maybe with a shot of luck they decide to help developers, and release at least some code.
Even Microsoft has released some of their code to the GPL.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

Also submitted. Regardless of what may come out of this, at least we tried.

Submitted!

I don't want to hijack the other thread. But I think the best action you can take is generate some publicity from the media.
Go to Engadget. http://www.engadget.com/
There should be a red 'Tip US' on the right hand side of the webpage. Let the problem get on the main page of Engadget.
Thank you/

Email sent.

Email sent - also if anyone is wondering what to say, here is what i sent to them...may not be perfect but it gets the job done:
Hello. I am writing today to ask that you please release the source code for the Tegra 2 chip to the public.
As you most likely know, the android os has a very large developer community. With this community comes ground breaking software development and can also make an already great product become an even bigger product.
An example would be Samsung hiring the lead developer of the CyanogenMod7 custom Rom for Android.
They also gave the team one of their latest devices for further testing.
Now that device is one of the most sold Android phones of 2011.
The Tegra chip has a following already because of the little bit of development that we have been able to squeeze out of it with out the help of Nvidia. (source code)
But we believe and know that we can develop upon it even further and show Nvidia and others what the Tegra is really capable of. Which in turn will bring more interest to the chip and devices that carry the chip and that just means more sales.
It is only a win-win situation.
Thank you for reading.
Sincerely
a Nvidia customer.

you guys are asking for specific stuff in a very generic matter. nvidia has a git hub with tons of stuff already! and im sure if you ask them for ics tegra2 drivers for the atrix or g2x they will deliver.
as for nvidia helping devs, its happend!

Hey Guys,
I am a T-mobile G2x user and over at the G2x forums we started a thread, [ics2g2x] [occupy nvidia]how you can help!. This request thread is to get Nvidia to release the source code for the tegra 2 chip, this way we can get more stable roms and yes a fully functional ICS build.
You can help in multiple ways. It doesn't matter how you help, as long as you did that becomes a +1 support for this thread!
1. Call them at (408) 486-2000 and ask for developer relations.
2. Email them at http://developer.nvidia.com/contact. Make sure your info is accurate so that they'll accept it.
3. Advertise this thread at places like Engadget or some other well known information website.
4. Get creative do something that we haven't listed up here, anything counts... (As long as it's good)
I'm only doing this because the Atrix uses the same tegra 2 chip, thanks for your understanding.

I agree with changing the title in case anyone from nvidia see the thread.
however, I would leave any sort of "occupy" verbiage out. due to the recent media coverage of everything "occupy" related, it's not entirely a positive way to bring about change to what we want as far as code.
it seems a tad bit brutish to use that word to request something at this point.
imo.

Speak for yourself lol.

Yeah, the thread title is a bad (polarizing) choice imho. I have enough trouble occupying my own space. And I certainly don't want to be seen in any sort of occupy movement. I work for what I have/want/need (and as an added bonus, to support the wants/needs of the occupiers, hurray for me!). But since the spirit of the thread isn't that sort of nonsense, I'm in. Message sent.
And no griping at me because I bit at the title... It was just sitting there staring at me with those "I want your stuff" and "Are you crazy? No I don't want to work for it" eyes...

Since I never do anything at work I will send them an email, spread this around, contact engadget, gizmodo, and more. I really want the ATRIX to become active. Its been dead around here a little.

Bada 2.0 petition

Hey guys the owner of the Italian Bada Blog created a petition for us Bada users to sign that WE WANT BADA 2.0 NOW AND NOT IN MARCH-APRIL 2012. I already signed and I thought I share the news with you so if anyone want to sign, do it, the more people sign the better, so Samsung understands the big problem they created.
http://www.change.org/petitions/bada-20-update-for-old-wave-devices-we-want-it-now

seriously !!!!!
it is our right to ask Samsung why it did this and ask for the update
no need to sign any penetation...we can annoy Samsung with bad publicity as a way to kill its new bada devices to force it to give the update
who is with me ?????
best regards

Done
Lets hope for the best ...

Signed up and posted this on Badadwonload.com
Hi TS please indicate that the petition spearhead is Manuel of Badablog.it and is a credible Leader for the petition and that he intends to discuss this with Samsung HQ provided he can produce massive numbers.
I have signed up for the petition please guys we need to reach at least a thousand to be taken seriously.

http://developer.bada.com/badaforum/category/list.do?categoryId=21
Why not write here...
Best Regards

i wrote to bada team already through the bug reporting channel which is directly connected to them
i wrote a simple question...how will the power app race go without the users
Best Regards

Probably they don't want to pay for the contest and so they are doing so. No bada 2.0 till March, less users, less downloads, no need to distribute the money!
The money saved then goes to make new Galaxy phones!

Dear Developer , Although the registration for bada 2.0 Power App Race is closed by the end of Dec, the REAL race will begin at next year. We have commenced the sale of Wave 3, M, Y from the end of Nov. and it is proceeding very good. We planned that the launch of bada 2.0 firmware upgrades start early 4Q, However, we are sorry that the plan was delayed until this month unfortunately. We will do our best to advance the schedule for bada 2.0 firmware. Once again, we are so sorry that the schedule of the applications which achieve 100,000 downloads might be delayed. Sincerely, we wish you the best of luck in our race. Thank you.

I hate this reply so much
it is like we were going to do what you are saying but unfortunately we could not
I think there is no need for petition also as bada team itself is saying that something went wrong

Badadaba 2...
May be Samsung wants to quit Bada. They release new phones but sales not going so good. Looks like a dramatic failure. Their mistake..
Sammy is happily travelling on Google's 'Bus' with others...but, anytime anyone can be kicked out at the next bus stop. And...............
There is something wrong in this picture. If Sammy is a 'serious' and 'creditable' company (!) there is something going on.

I think it would be great if you guys could post this news in other Bada - Forums and Blogs or contact the Blog Authors, so they can post the link to the petition on their Bada Blog. I already contacted the guys from bada-blog.de lets see if they will post the news. badablog.ru already posted it. If we want to be taken seriously we Bada users need to unite, problem is that not all Wave owners know about this petition, so we need inform the people through Forums like this and Blogs.
So spread this Link to every Bada blog and forum you know, so Samsung takes us seriously

I signed but I don't think anything changes. I'm hopeles for bada.

Yes me too. Bada is almost dead for me. My only hope is the Badadroid project but if the project fails I`m gonna buy an Android phone.
But for now we at least have to try to make clear to Samsung how bad they fu**ed up with this decision.

Samsung is loosing it's credibility and reputation badly..in this century if you support your customers as long as possible you are the king. And people close their eyes and buy your product like crazy because they are sure to have a real support and trust you.
Do you think Apple or Google developers are coming from another planet, which are super intelligence? NO, the companies are serious about their job. They play the game as honest as possible. Samsung is acting like a child they only want your money. Now, how can you buy their other products?...
How it is possible for a giant company like Samsung, to promise the update and
delay and delay and delay.
I don't think developers are very interested in creating Bada apps. Samsung is inviting them all around the world but there is no ready and completed OS. How can they trust?...
In the future Samsung will be a hardware company and Samsung Galaxy phones will be named as Google Galaxy and in the back of the phone at the bottom it will write with microscopic text ''Made by Samsung''.

HTC One US Developers Edition- Software Updates

Hi all,
I thought I would try and start a place for only the US Dev Edition unit where we could house the reponses and issues with updates, delays, etc...
I hope this makes sense and is useful. If not, then if one of the moderators could remove it, please....
I will start by offering the respone I just received from HTC regarding my question around why they could launch the Google Edition with 4.2.2. but still leave the US waiting for the update on the Developers Edition.
I thought buying a "clean" device, paying top dollar, direclty from HTC, with no Carrier involvment would mean timely updates?
I encourage others to post any information about this update or any future ones for this device!
Thank you for contacting the HTC Technical Support Center
We understand how you may be feeling regarding the update process to Jelly Bean 4.2 for the HTC One and we deeply apologize for the delay on this process. We sincerely work hard always on the updates for our customers, since we understand it is important for all of you to have the latest Android OS Versions.
We are always looking forward to develop updates that enhance your HTC experience. Due to the nature of the software development cycle, we may encounter the need to make some changes to ensure everything will work flawlessly, which is why we no longer engage to announce release dates.
We are currently running some tests to make sure the HTC One will function properly with 4.2, so we encourage you to check constantly on our website for further details about the release date. You can also follow us on Facebook or Twitter, where you can easily find the news of our products and also you can share all your concerns with our fans.
We sincerely expect your comprehension on this matter. Thanks for your continuous support of our products and services. Should you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us through http://www.htc.com/www/contact/email/ or call us at +1-866-449-8358 from 8AM to 1AM, 7 days a week.

I agree and I have seen the other posts so I know the Update is slowly being rolled out overseas to the International Versions, but the Google Edition That has 4.2.2 is for sale in the US, so they should have given it to the owners fo the Developers Edition in the US. I will post any additonal information/alerts about any updates in other countries as soon as i hear about it. Thanks for commenting !

One of the things I was hoping to accomplish was to get as many people as possible to send in thier message to; http://www.htcdev.com/...
so that HTC would see the number of frustrated customers. I know that every corporation tracks incoming messages by Subject matter and they review the topics on a regular basis. May not change anything now but there is power in numbers! HTC could use as much positive press as possible right now anyway!

4.2.2 for the us versions will be here within the next few weeks. You will get the update before the carriers at least.
Im sure everyone knows the international for mostly all phones get it first before the united states.

To CC999: (Sorry I replied to the wrong post and got wrong quote)
You aren't alone. I share your sentiment. Could have easily gotten the El Cheapo from ATT but chose to pony up for the DE and now being treated like a guy with the ATT version *shrug*. It makes me feel like these companies like HTC aren't even in tune with the silly little things that potentially keep Android fans happy and loyal...like....timely updates to as recent an OS version as possible??!! About two weeks ago I rooted and flashed Viper One. And Fell in love with my phone all over again. But it's missing the lock screen widget, the instagram blinkfeed and the immediately sharable screenshots...which i actually really miss from my Nexus 4. Also, I desperately need my Zoes to stop saving 2000 still pics with each day out at the park. Sigh. What can ya do....

May not change anything now but there is power in numbers! HTC could use as much positive press as possible right now anyway!

You should post this to reddit, I've sent in my email to HTC addressing my concerns with their update process as well, pretty sure I'll get the same bullsh*t message back from them.

If you think about it, HTC was pretty upfront about what they think of US developer editions; our cids start with BS, you should've known that htc would BS about the updates and that the developer edition being special.

Haahaa, nice one so we have the Bull [email protected]+ version..I love it...good attitude to have. Hopefully news will start rolling in as it gets released across the US...can always go back to a Custom 4.2.2 until the Stock version is official..Thanks for the laugh.

Thanks for e-mailing HTC and posting the differenet response....Well at least we know they are not total robots and they can respond in thier own words! Even though they continue to avoid the issue of the Google Edition haivng 4.2.2. as the Dev Edition and the Google Edition are not that different (except Sense and maybe an extra radio?)...still good to keep some pressure on them,

HTC doesn't care much about the pressure that comes from XDA, but get this on the front page of Reddit and the update will be out tomorrow lol.

I am the in the exact same situation, spent 649 dollars on the HTC One 64 gb. Developer Edition. This
was supposed to be the phone to receive the updates first. I am still sitting here with 4.12 and checking
software updates 20 times a day. Very frustrating to say the least!

I'm also frustrated about all of this, but you are making assumptions that are untrue.
Where did you ever hear HTC claim that "This was supposed to be the phone to receive the updates first"? I'm pretty sure the announced purpose of this phone is to be the untouched edition with the bootloader unlockable out of the box, with no possibility for carrier restrictions.
Nowhere did I ever read HTC claim that it would be the first to receive updates, and that's a silly assumption to make. It's a niche version of the phone - sure it's popular here on XDA, but it's a very small drop in the ocean - and I would expect the other versions to receive priority on updates.
At the end of the day, HTC is still a business and they're going to prioritise updates to the versions of the phone that have the largest user base.

Will play around with Reddit tomorrow and see how to go about this. Thanks for the Post...

Good luck.
I honestly think its bullcrap that they won't release it stateside yet. We had ROMs with 4.2.2 firmware over a month ago and even when they updated WWE units to newer 4.1.2 versions the dev edition didn't get it for weeks.
I'm optimistic but I'd say probably somewhere closer to a week.

I'm 100% sure that the dev edit would get the update after the standard htc one USA unlocked version. Watch!
I don't see any benefits of a dev edit htc one. It's not even s off
In the mean time I keep hitting check for update. I know we close.

-IMPORTANT UPDATE!- Petition to LEECO for source code release, now in change!

If developers have source code, they will make 100% functional roms. I try sending multiple times emails to LeEco asking for this, but the server always give me spam reply. Because of that I've created a thread in LeEco forum.
Please help doing a coment and voting in the poll.
This is the link to the thread: http://forum.le.com/in/index.php?threads/source-code-for-lemax2.14951/
Regards.
IMPORTANT UPDATE! Now we have a petition in change.org to do the max press possible to the brand. And the signs are for ALL the devices with Qualcomm processors.
Here it is!: https://www.change.org/p/leeco-letv...ents_action_panel_wrapper&utm_medium=copylink

great specs but the development is not so good. if they only release the sources.

Someone mentioned that they are releasing sources in September.

Yup, in the official forum, but who knows if is true or a fake...?

I read that they are selling these phones at less than cost as a loss leader to sell people their content services. If so, I very much doubt they are interested in supporting the dev community as that makes it easier for people to get rid of their apps and services from the devices.

We need to achieve that fast!!

Did you get source code from Le? Why don't you share for us?

Anyone has updates about the source code questions?
I didn't find any update on the change.org site.
BTW' we need more votes!!

I sign!
More people need to sign!!
does anyone confirm source code release soon???

i signed.

Signed.

I got response but still no plan for releasing...
https://twitter.com/LeEcoGlobal/status/782992367280422913

I have not (yet) bought the phone b/c there will be no proper development in the absence of a source code release. I will probably go for the Axon 7 although I would like to have a bigger screen. (I will also not buy the Le Pro 3 although it is an interesting phone. Developer-unfriendly phone companies like LeEco are an absolute no-go for me. So sad ... )

Signed

Every tweet they post about their USA launch should get a comment about how their crappy source code policy is...

I doubt they will release the source code

Do not purchase le Max2. Most of the phones have finger print sensor issues.

Yup, do it guys. I will put it in my petition, that people send tweets with that.

Do you have new news about letv's codes? Why didn't share with us about it?

Maybe the US launch change something I really like the phone my fingerprint has no issue except some times unresponsive but I only had it for a month LOL so fingers crossed
Maybe they'll release the source code and the worth of this phone will double
