[Q] TouchWiz 4.3 update when? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

damn i am so mad... HTC One getting 4.3 today .. Samsung delaying 4.3 surely to sell out Note III with 4.3
anyone knows when the rollout gonna start?

I read somewhere that they said 4.3 comes in October ... why you need 4.3 so badly?

Welcome to the world of Samsung. Also, please ask your questions in the QUESTION and answer section.

Actually there will be changes..... From Knox Sh#$Ft to other bootloader lockdowns.

That's the biggest concern trying to get 4.3 without updating the bootloader

Use cm 10.2 and you got Android 4.3 without touchwiz

Looks like when Samsung do an update to 4.3, it's probably going to have this new secure boot loader with the Knox security. I'd rather stay with a GE ROM for now for 4.3, as it's cleaner and doesn't have this problem. As least if something goes wrong, I can revert to stock and keep my warranty. So personally, Samsung can keep their full TW crap firmware lol

May be the end of October

Or the end of this year, ya all remember the leaked Galaxy S3 firmwares still no official v4.2.2 for S3 -.-'
Sent from my GT-I9505 using app: XDA Premium and rom: CgoastINC Rom v13

i think that owners of a i9500 will have more roms, maybe even a oficial cyanogenmod...

surely with the S4 being a flagship phone they will keep it up to date in line with the Note 3. like people say though, the worry is getting 4.3 and 4.4 etc without any Knox junk or locked bootloaders etc. Been there with locked bootloaders with HTC and i dont want to go back there again!!

There's never going to be a stable release of CM for the 9500 for the same reason as the 9300: Exynos.

Samsung Might Skip 4.2.2 Update for Galaxy S3, to bring 4.3 instead

Samsung Might Skip 4.2.2 Update for Galaxy S3 and Note 2, Plans Jelly Bean 4.3 Instead, along with Galaxy S4

i don't think so 4.3 is not on the nexus 4 yet so it would still be a surprise if we get it this year which makes plenty of time for 4.2.2 on our device
I am glad we have great Aosp Roms and we don't have to wait for crapwiz.
That is old speculation and rumor that has grown new legs today .
Reports all tend to be identical .

O look!......another rumour.......zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! (It's an old man thing!)
They already skipped 4.2.1.... the 4.2.2 leak us much more advanced. It takes a LOT of effort to take google's source code and touchwiz it up. If they skipped 4.2.2 for 4.3, 4.3.1 will be on the horizon so they may aswell keep scrapping up to android 18.5...
Nah, rumour = rubbish IMHO

You're right, it's not true. It is the leak compiled in May. NO WAY would they release a 2 month old leak as a stable release.
But, XX is not UK, Most of Europe use XX, Including Poland (who are usually first to get new releases) and Serbia, where the guy with the jokes is from.
As you can see on sammobile.com, Serbia will get XX releases.

Already tried that, it didn't work, I'm guessing it was because the apk i tried was from JB 4.1.2 and I think I need a version for 4.2.2, but I'm not 100% sure on that.
Try the one from the Note 3 then. I know its 4.3 but as previously mentioned, whats the worst that could happen. I have a few things working from the Note 3 on my 2 that seem to work great regardless of 4.1.2 framework.

Any ideas for the S-Pen? I don't know if there is a special software program out there to make it compatible with the s4. But had a nite one and so i miss the pen oart of the program. I got two brand new s-pens from att with the holders wish are exoensive and estimated it at $99.99 each so i really hate to waste them. I suppose i can hi to att and sell them back and use the credit towards something else. But if you know if there's a way to use them with the Galaxy S4 please don't hesitate to let me know . I woukd greatly appreciate any feedback you can give me!

TA on I9500
IF TA does not work on I9500, is there another program that can reset the counter. Also if not, is there a way to reload EVERYTHING on the the I9500 to stock standard. Sorry for asking this , but I just started to learn about XDA, rooting.......
There is no support for these types of processes in Namibia, and not even Samsung can help me here. I know more than them.
If I can't get my phone back to normal, then I will go ahead and rather load 4.0.3 on it. Is 4.0.3 available for Salmsung Galaxy S4 I9500 yet.

As far as I know, there isn't a TouchWiz 4.3 for the 9500 yet. But if you are fine without Samsung's add-ons, you might want to try out something like ParanoidAndroid or SuperNexus. They are available in the i9500 Original Development Section. Cheers!

I don't think this voids your warranty, because you are still on stock firmware....you don't need root or a custom recovery!
Just got an OTA from MJ5 to 8. Phone generally feels the same. Nothing new observed by me other than "maybe" a little better RAM management.

porting a note3 rom to note 2014

its been awhile since I've done any work on a rom I used to do some stuff with MIUI. What I did with that was mostly simple stuff from phone to phone. The question is if I wanted to port a note3 ROM over to my new 2014 what would I need to change besides the kernel, the build.prop I just can't figure out what else?

If it's Kitkat you're after you're out of luck... The note 3 needs updated bootloader to run KK, and once upgraded there's no going back to JB...

And each of them use the KK bootloader... Not non-productive dribble (drivel) if its actually relevant unless you want to test and see if the Note 3 KK bootloader won't brick your lovely expensive toy...
Maybe you should check things out before spouting non relevant drivel....

The Canadian note 3 can flash back because of fewer restrictions. No reason to assume the tablet is more secure when that is never the case.

True the Canadian Note 3 has looser restrictions but that is a VERY small percentage of Note 3's in the world.
Based on the statistics this does not bode well for the International version either exynos or qualcomm...
I'm not assuming the P60* series is completely locked down but I tend to look at worst case scenarios then work around that.
My job tends to revolve around that so there's no nasty surprises and people ending up dead.... This bleeds through to all facets of my life...
After the KK bootloader is released we will have KK roms... Why try out questionable roms that may or may not work on/brick your device...
Does this seem rational to you?
Fairly, Im certain he wouldn't release a port that he hadn't tested. And the rom itself can be flashed separate from the boot loader once we hare the 4.4 boot loader for ours, and rather I believe he intended a non KK rom. however if after 4.4 releases he chooses to its Just a matter of getting the original dev's permission then if a direct port isn't possible checking the dev's change log and replicating it as thoroughly as possible.
