Will the 7.7" ever get JB?

Ok so we finally got ICS for our tabs, but unfortunately we are already running behind as JB is already out or on its way to several devices. I was wondering if you guys think that we will ever see an OFFICIAL JB update to for our tabs. Please spare me the custom JB ROM replies, i am not asking or interested about that i am only interested in an official JB update. What do you guys think, possible or will Samsung forget about our 7.7" like they did with original 7" and just move on. Please share your thoughts on this.
I am hoping we can get Google Now on our tab, seen it running on the Nexus 7 and it is awsome, the Bitter UI would be nice as well but not a priority.

Same question will be asked after JB when Google releases Android Lollipop !
Just be glad that your TAB is working on ICS, and that alone will open the door for CM9 and even CM10 as there's no changes in kernel.

And BTW Google now has already been ported to ICS.

Officially... I say no looking from previous firmware update method by Samsung.
Maybe we can get it through CM or other Dev

I am glad and happy with improvements. Google now may have bee ported but voice part of it is not working, that is not a complete port, thats what happens when you start using custom roms, they never work 100%.

No interested in cooked roms just official upgrades from now on. I have learned that once you start using cooked roms they never work 100%. Has happened to me with all roms from used on Samsung Galaxy S and Samsung Galaxy Tab 7" and i have used many.

Hmmmm CM9 works very well on my i9000 and p1000, and i have no issues. When CM9 reaches nightly's for the 7.7 I am going to flash the Samsung firmware away

i am so agree with you about cooked ROMs :highfive:

I doubt this tab will see 'official' JB from samsung. Once they release ICS kernel source then maybe we'll see an AOSP port. Samsung has released kernel source for the n7000 (gNote)

I use my Verizon 7.7 all the time as I fell in love with the size and the mobility. I sold my Asus Transformer Prime, because I was barely using it. So I am in an even bigger pickle because my tablet is through Verizon. I hate samsung and their development awareness. They take forever to bring updates and I really fell such a great and expensive tablet like the 7.7 will fall by the wasteside. I truly don't think JB will be coming out anytime in the near future. I still don't have ICS on this tablet, but I use a different launcher which helps with lag.

I would imagine that any new tablet in this size and with amoled would presumably debut either at IFA, probably not since Note 2 is coming at IFA, so a new 7.7 would appear at CES 2013, possibly with new AMOLED tech, making the device thinner, lighter and higher resolution screen.

I would say 95%

Exactly, who doesn't want that. I understand there will be wrinkles but with an active development community like this then the more people that are running the ROMs will help improve them.

Nobody in this thread is really complaining, but there have been ALOT of complaints in this forum due to limited dev support, but c'mon, we're early adopters! TRUST me, as this tech becomes more affordable, the dev community will be all over it.
There is MASSIVE potential to be unlocked with larger sAMOLED+ displays. Has anybody realised that human hands have never drawn, painted or written anything with such a pallette before? Sometimes I feel like I'm talking to the wind on this issue.
From what I can tell, 10%-20% of us are professional artists/photographers/developers. The rest of ya'll are just awesome enthusiasts...(professional in your own right, I'm sure)---
The strange thing is, we're spread out all over the world, and there looks to be less than 100,000 of us total.
Nobody I've talked to (I mean chatted with on here) knows anyone else, or has seen anyone else with one of these tablets. That makes each of us unique in our own social spheres. JB will come out within months through the dev community, and i'd rather see an AOSP/AOKP port of JB than another sammy-watered-down-whimpy-touch-wiz-fracked-wish-i-were-a-REAL-android-distro-CRAPOLA-"UPGRAYEDD"

From GS3 to Galaxy Nexus back to Gs3

So I sold my GS3 for a Galaxy Nexus because I wanted to experience Jelly Bean. Well after a week I'm back and heres why.
1. Screen bigger and better
2. Camera much better
3.phone felt much snappier(although I wasn't on Jellybean)
4.volume much louder and crisp
5.GSM Nexus had no LTE and below standard HSpa+ never over 6 mbps
So if your in to specs I say the Gs3 is the place for you.
Also if buying the Nexus off craigslist make sure it's able to receive the update the one I bought was on the wrong radio and was told it would not which Is why I sold it too.

Well, not to be bashful or anything, but I figured going with the GSIII was a given. Jelly Bean may be great, but it's not going to do anything to get the GNex up to GSIII standards. And no worries, GSIII will get it's fill of Jelly Bean goodness soon enough.

I had the galaxy nexus, I want on JB, I have no regrets switching.

JB will come for GS3 soon enough

Love the nexus but sold it last week. Jelly bean will soon hit roms so not a huge loss and I'll definitely be picking up the new nexus when ever it comes out.

No it won't. Official ics only just now rolled out for some sgs2 phones.The SDK was released in October of last year.
You might get some carrier leaks (buggy asz shiz) or cm10 (less buggy) but that will probably be many months.

Look up the change log and structure between those earlier android versions then go look at jelly bean compared to ics. Believe it or not the change isn't a complete overhaul, they meant for it to be that way.
Ps. there is already a beta jellybean on the international version, and we got cm9 and aokp within the first few weeks of the phone being out, the s3 is a whole nother beast compared to the s2

I really wasn't interested, if you haven't guessed yet.
I was making a point about JB not being easily ported compared to ics or gb.

Im no dev but the majority of ICS porting applies to JB. Under the hood they are very similar. Google Now, the new voice software, and the triple buffering (kernel level stuff) are the major differences. Google now is an APK and the voice isn't requiring a lot of work either I'm sure.
If we don't have a fairly strong jb aosp in a month I would be surprised.

I think it's pretty obvious that the jump from GB to ICS is what took so long. imagine trying to get all your current apps and data and customization to work with a new OS with zero hiccups and nothing lost. ICS is so completely different from GB, I'm not surprised it took so long. The jump to JB from ICS isn't nearly as large, as some people have pointed out. I'm banking on us getting it early Q4.

CM 10 doesn't require a bunch of new drivers or official blobs from Samsung so it should be rewrite of code and implementing the apps and such. If the SGS III got AOSP ICS in weeks I'd say cm 10 might be weeks away from the point source was released. I'm not positive cause I'm not on a computer, but I think Steve Kondik (Cyanogen) has the SGS III for T-Mobile. I'm no where near a PC (just my phone til Monday)... if he is on the device as the main team member, we are looking at great nightlys and then some.

MIUI ROM

Throwing it out there as I have the time to pursue but not the hardware - anyone willing to part with a p3113?, I'd like to port over MIUI for the Tab2. If anyone is interested PM me.

For the love of Google, someone get this guy a P3113. Or donate so he can get one! I'll throw a few bones your way Tuesday/Wednesday.
Anyone else interested in MIUI for our tabs? If 25 of us just do $10, this guy, might just deliver something awesome.
Can, you provide us with a little more info on your dev skills; can you handle such a task? Also, a donate button, or paypal link would help your cause, getting donations.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using XDA Premium HD app

Hah' thanks for the plug. In theory this would be my first full blown rom. Ive always done the testing, never the up front work. I've gotten my tab to the point where I don't even care if JB gets ported to it. Everything works, its stable, snappy, and makes no sense to mess with it.
As for my Atrix4G...that ****s taken a beating and MIUI was my choice. There where too many minor bugs and since I want a phone that works full time, I stopped messing with that and went back to Jokers latest. Searching around I can't find anything for a 3113 and MIUI. In short, if I had something else to fart around with and get it to the point where it works as well as what I'm writing you with...I'd love to share, maintain, etc. Paying for the shorties education, sports, etc comes first...hah. took the honest approach with this one.

Well the GTab 2 is relatively a new device so it takes some time for the community to grow. As for MIUI I have seen the Gingebread version and it's far more superior to stock rom in my previous x10i, so I also like to see the Gtab ICS version of it

MIUI on the Atrix was outstanding - video cam and a few other minor issues is the only thing holding me back there. I could see the potential on a gt2 esp with a kernel mod... who knows, it's just a thought! polska dobra!

Sorry man but if you want a tab 2 then buy one. They're cheap.
Miui would be cool but it wouldn't be hard for any decent developer to port. Plus with the popularity of this tablet miui will come, just a matter of time.

i hear you - hoping some decent developer forgets to work on their nexus, xoom, kindle and picks up a tab2 instead... and gets the IR to work properly

Its CPU is very similar, and the GPU is the exact same.
Also this might be worth checking out aswell

I'm wouldn't dare touch the title of RecDev... but I'm interested in getting into it. I'm Gonna poke around in this... seems like everything to make this happen is sitting right there on the table so to speak.

And let's not forget that if it works on the 7.0 it can be ported to the 10.1 with less effort...

So I hear CM10 is actually the best way to go with S3 as of now? Nice and smooth?

Welcome to the magic world of the Galaxy S3!
Well....it's a matter of choice really!
I used to use cm9 because cm10 has a memory bug that requires you to reboot the phone once in a while...
I switched back to stock though...
For me it's better than cm because my music sounds better on stock,the camera is much better and also it has great deals in samsung apps!
For example you can get Modern Combat 3,Asphalt 7,Shadowgun and Virtua tennis all for free!
Try using foxhound ics ron which has reached a final stage and is perfect!
I use that combined with siyah kernel and i am a very veryyy happy man!
Try it and you'll remember me...
I wouldn't recommend using jellybean leaks because they are buggy....never the less the official update will come very soon,i think you should wait a liltle bit!

Congratulations on your s3 but this is wrong section mate. From what I see you are getting a t mobile s3. Unless you want a paperweight with 5 inch screen you may want to stay away from this international forum.

Ill keep it in mind about the ICS one. Also Ive seen reports about the CM10 being ASOP. And that its smooth as butter without a memory problem. However if you are saying stock is nice. Idk, hard to say lol. Well wait, no I may not stay with stock. Anyone know if stock has cifs.ko support in its kernel? That to me is a vital part of any rom I get.. and with a device with HDMI output.. yea, network files for videos is good. (And not just DLNA)
Yea if I used my G1 for 4 years (Along with others in my sig for playing around with) then I can only imagine how well this device will serve me. Also I should be able to use Splashtop 2 or Splashtop HD shouldnt I since this has a high resolution?
Edit: Wait so this isnt the right forum for T-Mobiles S3? (Curse you google xda search for forum section)

Search the original android development for cifs.ko mate...
Now if you want hdmi like me stay away from aosp...
It's not supported and most likely never will be...

your device is exynos based, and thus closed source
you will not ever ever find an official release for this device (unless by some magic samsung releases the code)

Is this the only galaxy device that is closed source or there are others like the gs 4 which samsung didnt released the code for them?

They were able to utiliz the the octa core cpu as intended by samsung? Pretty groundbreaking if so.
I was under the impression that the cm for 9500 was using very generic drivers for the cpu
Thus making it very poorly optimized
But yeah it boots just fine

Yea thanks to some hard work from 3 main guys they got around Samsung..
I've been running slim ROM for the past 24 hours and despite it being the 2nd alpha it blows TW out the water..

Another i9505 user coming to i9500 thread just to prove something to his self that he bought a better one.

Duh, it is only the 2nd alpha, hence I mentioned it in my post... It will be a couple weeks before everything gets ironed out but considering the first CM was released on Monday and the only major glitch 4 days later is the cam I'd say they did a pretty good job...
But don't take my word for it. Good look at the bench marks.....

Its true lol. They were all happy cuz they said i9500 would never see aosp and here it is. Yes it took long (what a month or two?) Gave me some time to get bored on stock TW lol

The funny part was you thinking an incomplete rom without camera blows TW out the water.
It's a ridiculous statement.
It's just like me saying my porshe without engine is better than your working Volvo.
I just said it was funny. No need to get defensive

Not all i9505 owners boast about having better open source support etc. I for one am still running stock firmware and I'm happy enough, and will remain so until 4.3 is released. I don't think it is necessary to split the camp between i9500 and i9505, and certainly no need to have childish squabbles.

Exactly. Thanks. Didn't even know the 9500 ppl where so darn defensive.

but how do you explain the fact that no matter what device i use it willl always get a lower score on cm then on the official samsung rom?

I jumped over to get.cm and i couldn't find cyanogenmod for my device.
Can someone please tell me the codename i need to look for?

I think i9500 still wasn't given a codename because there isn't even a cyanogenmod nightly for it. When it happens, it will be given a codename.
