as i mentioned Spacemoose1 said that , do you think if he is not sure , he will stop the work that he does so far ? he is 100%sure

Totally beleive it so no offence intended bud . Thought there was maybe an announcment from Google or something along those lines. Good news but feel bad for Spacemoose, but then again i cant wait to see what the devs do with it.

Actually space is a he, The speculation was ended other week when he admitted it. It doesn't make a difference either way but it was just curiosity that sparked it all.

That link suggests that 3.2 will add in support for Qualcomm processors, but the 7 inch Tab has the ARM Cortex A8 processor I believe. So are people reading this story, putting 2 + 2 together and getting 5? Or am I missing something and we will in fact be getting 3.2?

we will get 3.2 for our tab i don't believe all this ****y , i believe Spacemoose1 , he said that , means its the truth and is coming really soon

k0sh, relax, you misread the whole thing.
3.2 is coming....but not to the Galaxy Tab 7inch.
Someone still has to port it. Spacemoose said he will work on it, but porting 3.x so far has proven to be a difficult task, and 3.2 won't be any easier(althou he could use a lot of his work so far).

Indeed. k0sh regularly misreads what people say or takes them out of context.
Android 3.2 is not been released for Galaxy Tab, What spacemoose is talking about is that once it drops for official devices he will be able to use that and port to our Tab if all goes well.

he said that the 3.2 is coming for our tab that is the main reason he stopped working on the honeycomb so you think if its to another tabs he will stop or continue after he already figured out to make it support GSM ? read his post again

Dude, it is NOT coming to our Tab, Its coming to new official 7" Tablets and space will use those as a base for port rather then the SDK build.
You are very much mistaken.

"The last straw was when I discovered that 3.2 is going to drop on a new 7 inch tab in a month or two (and will be pushed to the Motorola Xoom in a matter of days according to various accounts on tech blogs.) With that news, I've dropped development altogether.
3.2 is designed to be compatible with 7 inch screens and single-core processors... So continuing this port would be like trying to cram your foot into the wrong size shoe when the right size shoe is sitting just across the room... what's the point?"
explain the bold words could you the atheist , maybe i'm wrong

It means that the OS has been modified for 7" screens and single core CPU, This doesnt mean it is been officially released for our specific tablet, That will be down to Samsung and licenses with google etc.
This news is for NEW 7" tablets that are been released officially for honeycomb.
When or IF it will be released for our Tab it will be announced via Samsung.
Oh and by the way, just thought id post what you sent me in pm here as its hilarious and people need to read it
k0sh said:
now why this stupid post ? i didn't misread and you know that spacemoose1 said that is coming to our tab
its ok and i said i know that my ****ing english is ****ed up but at least i can still ****in write and read
so can you please edit your ****in post because ppl will think negative on me
man come on for the ****in **** , stop that , don't force me to hate you

k0sh I'm sure you meant well, and much respect for reading and writing in a language that is not your native tongue... but yes, you have misunderstood. It appears that 3.2 is going to be released for devices similar to the Tab, but it's not yet been confirmed that specifically means the Tab.
I'm assuming that spacemoose means that the version he was originally working on was difficult because it was never meant to be on a 7" device. Although he'd got close, the news that a new version is coming that supports devices LIKE ours means that he's anticipating it's going to be relatively easy to port 3.2 onto the Tab.
If Samsung came out tomorrow and said that 3.2 would be natively ported for our Tabs then I think we'd all cheer, but in the meantime it looks like we may be waiting to see what spacemoose and other devs can come up with.

I don't think there was any doubt of this, but it's nice to have a rough guess of when we'll get it.
There will be custom roms in the meantime but I suspect we'll lose a lot of stylus support.

Yes, ICS has support for Pressure Sensitive screens.

I don't understand why everyone thinks the Note will get ICS.
Its just some blog that says so...
They even have edited their post now:
Update : is not official confirmation from Samsung Korea (the only one who can give the full official) but is "a hypothesis" for the next updates. Only Samsung Korea will confirm the roadmap of aggironamenti.
I say, the Note does not get an Official ICS...
Its far more logical that the Note II will get ICS.
NO confirmation, nowhere. Stop fooling yourself.

Why are you so negative about ICS? Secondly, note is a brand new device. Almost all devices from past 6 months must get an upgrade to ICS.

I am not negative about ICS. I would like ICS.
Its just not likely the Note will get ICS, and NOWHERE Samsung did say the Note will get ICS.
Its just some blog (looking for some extra visitors I guess), hearsay and such, and everyone thinks its going to happen.
Wait for an official Samsung announcement, than talk about "its confirmed".
And why "Almost all devices from past 6 months must get an upgrade to ICS" ??
Wishful thinking maybe?

Because otherwise it's bad PR. Android devices which are at least six months old have always been updated.

Think about what Samsung needs to do if they put ICS on this Note.
They spend a lot of money on marketing the Note, and its just about to get released...
If they would put ICS on this Note, they either have to revise all the marketing material, or recreate the exact same software on ICS, including launcher etc.
Even the Italian blog mentions second quarter 2012 as a date for a possible Note update to ICS.
By that time the market is also ready for a Note II with ICS 4.5

If they don't update to ICS, Samsung will have a lot of negative media about not supporting there brand new flagship devices. Which will result in a lot more of a loss than the gain. Plus they have to update TW to ICS anyway, they might as well put a bit of more effort and make it work for Note. And ICS can act as an incentive for newer purchases, people always like forward to buy newest Android OS. Galaxy S2 came out and still they are providing updates for Galaxy, why do you think that happens?

We will see.
But there is no official announcement or confirmation from Samsung that they will update the Note to ICS. Its just a blog, and they already had an "update" in their post, they are not so sure anymore.
So the title of this post is wrong.

As I said in another thread, it would be a PR disaster for Samsung to come out with a phone at the same time they issue ICS and not provide an upgrade path.. At thIs point I think you're speculating yourself, and you need to sit and wait like the rest of us and see what happens. My bet is you are very wrong.

I hope I am wrong.
But you agree there is no confirmation to be found, right ?
(And the rest is speculating)

Google requires all manufacturers to deliver updates for at least 6 months for all new devices.
So ICS should come to the Note.

Yes. In this case Gingerbread updates. 2.3.x updates.

i am pretty sure given the way samsung has been working these days.
However i dont have any confirmation.

actually, Google said 18 months. I am quite certain that ICS will land on any Galaxy S2 and after device. PR disaster. I mean look at the other KOrean maker, LG, they are not exactly doing great.

You clearly dont know what the hell you are talking about here!
Google wants that all manufactures update to ICS because of fragmentation. Google will update once a year like Apple!
The Note II maybe not coming at all if this thing does not sell. So they will update this Note to ICS. Every new phone you buy from Sammy will get 18 months of Support So that means ICS will come to the Note!
Mark my words ! Of Course they will not confirm this this quick because of the galaxy Nexus. It will interfear the sales of that phone!

Should we even care? How much of those features will Samsung include?
-Photo sphere....maybe but probably not
-Widgets on lockscreen....maybe but probably not
-Quick settings...No (Samsung already has toggles)
-Keyboard...No (Samsung already has swipe)
-Multiple user accounts....probably Yes
-Miracast...No (Samsung will probably stick with Allshare)
-Daydream....No
Nothing interesting for users with OEM skinns if you'd ask me.

Yes. Tomorrow. Believe me.

Yesterday I had an update on my Kies every time I get that I always get a software update on my phone, takes from 1 week up to 4

Why shouldn't we? Android 4.2 doesn't look like it brings such incredible changes that the hardware in the GS3 isn't sufficient.

We will get the update.... but my feelings... most of us will get rid of this phone to gakaxy s4 or nexus when the update is available heheheh

I think every firmware that pops up samsung fixes bugs, and bring new improvements. It was allways so. Then when you expect a major upgrade they will tell you that they don´t support you anymore. Like they have done with galaxy S and galaxy tab P1000.

I am not holding my breath for Samsung updates.... I'll just try to think of something else and try to enjoy what I have (JB 4.1.1)
The last time I trusted Samsung, they delayed the promised release of JB in over 2 months (it was initially meant for early august but was released in late october).
Anyhow, even 'though I am one of the pathetic flash junkies (I resent that, btw), I am trying to get over it, because it causes too much anxiety, which makes me drink too much coffee (or the other way around, IDK), which causes me to not sleep well at night, which causes me to be late for work... damn you, Samsung!

Once you have the base 4.2 samsung rom you can simply use most of the features by copying/installing those features. it think multi user is only for tablets. But frankly 4.2 has no mind blowing are a must have feature like 4.1.
4.2 camera is already ported, the only exception the sphere is not working for anyone, hopefully will get fixed soon.

Premium Suite?

Is this some new update for the device?
Check this video from Samsung:

It's the official announcement of JB and all the new features. They called the enhancements they made to the OG Note "Premium Suite" also. Everything shown is in the German ROM some of us have been using. The fact this was posted to YouTube today means the official roll-out is close.
They've also created a micro-site for it...

What's in that video is new and was posted on YouTube today. This is the first mention of "Premium Suite" and for any detail provided publicly of what's actually in the Note's JB update.

Yes I have already highlighted that in my first post.
The second mention was a reply to your post that they have create a new microsite.
What they are essentially doing is rebranding Note and re launching it in a sorts with the New JB update to push it sales even more. The positive about the same is that is we may get upgraded to 4.2 in future

The shipping ROM didn't support exFAT so all the original marketing materials said 32GB. Updates changed that and 64GB is now supported. It's supported in the German ROM some of us have been using.

The video is uploaded on an old existing website and hence the confusion on specs but its shamefull how a big company like Samsung does not pay attention to small things like this

I'm starting to think this was a pre - black friday announcement to get the masses hyped. Now, if it pushes out in the next 3 days, I could be wrong'

I think you guys give Samsung far too much credit for premeditation. Between all the different regions and different groups involved in a single product their lucky to get stuff out the door at all. And 2/3 of their revenue is outside the U.S. where Black Friday is meaningless. I do think that the release of JB marketing and support materials means we're getting close though. Keep in mind with all the N8020 ROMs that were just leaked I'd imagine that product is going to be released shortly only on JB and those marketing materials are necessary to support it.

Let's hope it's not a mistake of Samsung Thailad

This would be nice, as 4.0 is starting to feel kind of dated after using 4.2 on the Nexus 10. I still love my 7.7 and think it's still the best 7" yet (price notwithstanding), but an OS update that isn't buggy as hell (apologies to devs working on the 7.7) would be a new lease on life.

Other people quoting back to the same potentially wrong source is not a confirmation......it's just noise.

Until then it's just rumor and a possible source of frustration (for me) because I have seen and used JB (on a Nexus 7 that I formerly owned) and enjoyed the goodness that was rolled up in same.
I really want to hope this news is true and that we'll all get it eventually, but eventually may be a long time off in the future and if so, well, I'm not sure I have the patience.

Not so certain. And here's why:

Much as I am hoping for the best, I am not so sure this is the news we are all waiting for.
I am an expatriate living in Thailand. My partner is Thai and he's reasonably technical. He owns a Galaxy S3 and an 8.9" tablet. I showed him that status table from the web page that you are speculating about. I did not show him the Google translation that you are pinning your hopes on. But I asked him what the status for the 7.7 means.
He said that the wording was poorly chosen and could be interpreted many ways. In other words, a fluent Thai reader could not look at that status message and walk away with certainty about Samsung's plans. It could mean anything from "confirmed" to "to be confirmed." (The latter possibly meaning that Samsung HQ has not yet determined a decision.)
We can tell you that Thailand users did receive an OTA update for the Galaxy S3 in the past couple of weeks. So the date for that product, stated in the Thai Buddhist calendar system, is correct.

Great news !!

Wow it is great news !

The thing is, even if the rumor turns out to be true, Samsung really dropped the ball on updating this device, for legal reasons or otherwise - doesn't matter.
It would have to be the latest and greatest version of jellybean for me to even consider upgrading.
Where Samsung failed, the development community stepped up and have offered superior alternatives to what Samsung is bringing to the table.
Or hasn't to be more precise.
This is a terrific tablet and Samsung has failed epically to capitalize on its potential as a higher quality device in a sea of average tablets. And they feed this mediocrity by saturating the market with 50 versions of the same plastic garbage they are so well known for producing.

Since ICS came out I stopped using AOSP roms, no need, and some Samsung apps are very good...

Of course Jelly bean is even better :good:

So in what you use your tablet for on a daily bases JB is better then ICS ?
I use ICS on my 7.7 and JB on my Note. Frankly for daily and normal use it's the same ****..

Problem is I have developed a odin phobie, the previous time I attempt to flash to hc, the mainboard is dead. By the time JB is out, the warranty will be over.

the legal reasons are gone. and this the best tab in specs so far for its pretty display and built quality.
even with dual core the tab performs well enough in the high end game, no reason for not support with JB

This is probably because you don't need o have decent battery life
The JB custom ROM just don't provide as much battery as Samsung's ROMs

JB is a bit more customizable and smoother on the SGS3, should be the same on the tab
