I really don't know but allow me to say this: THIS IS MY #1 CONCERN WITH THIS PHONE!
What enhances this, is that unlike leaks that happen with HTC, Samsung or even Sony, I have not heard yet any single word about 4.3 update for this phone!
If the only update this phone get is 4.3, I'm satisfied. We just need TRIM and we're good to go.

What you need it for again? I have 4.3 on my Nexus and I do not see some difference why I would need it.

NO, simply NO we do not need TRIM. Please read when TRIM actually runs and if it helps anyone.
TRIM was added mainly because of Nexus 7 and no it did not help. Not in most cases. Not even like a placebo effect. And those who it helped, it was temporary fix, not felt for long.
And also this phone does not have the problems that TRIM would fix. So I will repeat , we do not need TRIM. (hopefully it stays like this)
Also guys, with the XPOSED framework, I do not see myself wanting 4.3. Maybe 4.4 will be different after googles promise of using lesser resources. But this phone is fine on the 4.2.2.
I would say the need for newest androids stopped sometime at 4.2 or maybe even 4.1 for most. And again Xposed fixes all and actually enables you keep stock rom so no need to go Custom as well....
Besides, 4.4 was promised to us eventually, and I am happy with the eventually as well. 4.2.2 is enough for now. And thats comes from a guy who was using nightlies for 3 years on all of his phones...
TRIM does help, but when some devices ( nexus 7) has that bad NAND, it won't help. TRIM is the way of de fragging NAND.

Do you even have any idea how it is in reality? In theory is all nice and shiny, but for now it has no real practical use or implementation.
You wont feel the difference. Or you want to tell me that all the phones that ppl were using for many years magically started getting faster?
Again in reality there won't be any feel to the change.
And my last phone had a good NAND and TRIM and no change to speeds . (HOX, thats the Nexus 7 equivalent with a better HW)
If and let me repeat IF this phone should suffer from something that TRIM could fix, we will long by then have the Android with TRIM.
But till you go on how TRIM is good, research a bit or try it out.
I was the same, excited about TRIM for my devices, after longer use, no use
Very crappy with updates in the past, but hopefully this will be the phone that changes it. They do actively position it as their flagship and promote it everywhere which makes me hope they will provide proper support as well.
Then again, with the custom roms (the 4.3 roms seem to work pretty damn fine already) it might not be that important, as long as the community supports it.
It won't make it faster, it will keep it form getting bad I/O after long time.

I agree with this, but the amount of resources and testing at google's disposal far outweighs that of your average rom builder.
Not only that, but I'm positive that Google has specification and performance information on the phone's hardware that the average ROM developer will simply never have. I agree, custom ROMs are fun to play with, but for everyday use, you'll never beat a stock ROM.

I'm on kang 15 and steve.garons latest kernel. You and I have very different opinions of stable. Mine is top notch. No hiccups. If u want to wait, by all means, I was...then broke down and the current roms are fantastic.
It takes less than 5mins to root, make a backup, copy that backup yo PC, then unlock boot loader and flash a new rom. If u don't like it, there always that backup you can restore. Too easy to sit around and complain when there are alternatives
I'm always finding things that don't work on custom kernels and it drives me insane!! I'll try to show someone something cool, and it takes me 15 minutes just to get it working, then I just look stupid because the rom I have isn't compatible with ___, or it's missing ___ (fill in the blank)
Yeah, they are fun to play with, and it's nice to have the cool mods & tweaks that come with them, but when you want your phone to "just work" then there's nothing better than a nice stable official rom that does everything you throw at it. speed & extra performance is great, but stability and compatibility outweigh those every single time, imho

Thank you for putting words on my feelings.. I would really like my device to have the Nexus logo with pure Google experience and updates.. There is too many steps for a device to get updates.. First from Google then make their own skins and enhancements and then the carriers will bloat it some... Someone got a nexus here? I'm just thinking how it is to hold in the hand compared to s3

There will be one, or a few coming around thanksgiving time. The question now is who will make the next nexus. There is that rumor that there will be 5 different Nexus devices by different manufacturers. We have already seen the Nexus 7 by asus, so that leaves 4 more. Unless they are also counting the Nexus Q as a nexus device which means we have 3 more to go

I don't want to do that yet, because as soon as I dump the Sammy-based ROMs and install AOSP it leaves me nowhere to go when (inevitably) I become unhappy with the phone's performance. I'm quite happy with the speed of it at present, and I'm not quite done playing with the built in features such as awesome codec support, Smart Stay and I'm itching to meet up with my friend who has just got his S3 so I can test out the Wi-Fi Direct thingy

Me. I find the little bump at the bottom of the nexus makes it sit more naturally in the hand than the Galaxy.
By the way, pure opinion here but Google now sucks. It just sits there sucking up battery and doing stuff there are already widgets for and the voice search is about as weak as s voice.

With the S4 just weeks away from the final release presumably directly on 4.2.2 wouldn't have been a very smart idea to have something similar to that for S3 'accidentally' leak towards XDA so that Samsung could have many thousands of highly-qualified beta-testers iron-out most of the last-second surprises? Since the 4.2.1 leak was not looking very convincing to me, and it looked like it really needed more extra testing ...
I find a little strange that... Samsung still updating the S3
I find it a little strange how you expect someone to risk their job for you.
Do we have an ETA for 4.2 update?

Well a common theory is that Samsung are themselves responsible for the leaks, or at the very least, very much aware of, but indifferent to their occurrence.
And it makes sense. So many development ROMs get leaked, it seems odd to think that they would have NO way to prevent, or at least reduce, them if they wanted to.
IMHO makes business sense, when you think about it...
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I'm sure we will get a leak when they have something worth leaking, alpha testing is more than likely conducted in house, for obvious reasons, and I wouldn't expect a 4.2.x update for at least 8 weeks after the s4 release.
My opinion about leaks is that Samsung does use XDA for a cheeky bit of beta testing, when they have safe stuff to release, but I don't think they are stupid enough to release alpha stuff to the, let's face it, dubious skills of your average xda end user!
And if anyone did try leaking an alpha, I'm pretty sure they would get hung out to dry!
....but then I might be completely wrong!

That 4.2.1 leak we got was pretty alpha and generally unusable... I'm pretty sure that one accidently got out because we're used to samsung leaks having a few bugs, but that version wasn't even near done.

I had it running for at least 3 weeks myself. The main reason I stopped using it was the battery life. I was getting about 4-6 hours with my 2500mah extended battery and would get pretty warm frequently. I have spare batteries, but it still got to be too much. I don't know if that was common for others, but I have a habit of running a lot of apps at the same time with push notifications and such, I think power management wasn't built out very well so it really impacted my use. The same apps and such get me about 8-10+ hours with the 4.1 roms (nearly double the battery life).
There were a few other little issues as well. I stuck it out longer than usual hoping some more 4.2 leaks would come out, but none did. Even the custom roms releases didn't offer any improvements, just the usual google apps updates.
Not a big deal, I mostly wanted 4.2 because I was hoping for camera updates, widget lockscreen, toggle panel, etc. I liked the widget lockscreen, but they didn't do anything with the camera. The toggle panel didn't prove to be that useful because the 25 toggle mod kinda does that just fine anyway. Other than the 4.2 improvements that samsung included from the stock 4.2 experience, I'm not really in any rush for a 4.2 rom on the S3. Other than smart stay and smart notifications, I really don't use many of the current S3 gimmicks and the S4 software gimmicks are just more of the same. Even google now is much more useful than s-voice.

I don't think you understood my post - I was suggesting that it would make good business sense for Samsung to make that leak (and some other posters have noted the same thing about the older leak).
The final S4 will face one order of magnitude more competition now than S3 did one year ago, so having bugs that result in many apps not working well or too much power consumption and so on would NOT be good for Samsung, and the only way to test that on a large scale (give that there are no large scale S4 deployment) would be to "fake leak" a 4.2.2 for S3 - which the S3 WILL get anyway in the final form at some point!
Usual is we get a leak its probably a beta test deliberate leak .
Then it takes a fair while before the genuine release rolls out .
XDA cheap beta testers .

Because if they give us a update directly with s4 features it will affect s4 sales

Android 4.3/CM10.2 ROMS are growing in number, and many former Android 4.2 and CM 10.1 ROMS have been evolved into the newer builds. Problem is that Graphic Glitches on Android 4.3 for Samsung Exynos phones are substantial, and they make the user experience quite unstable and at times very irritating.
We need developers to continue updating 4.2 ROMS with the latest features (e.g. Focal, HALO2, etc...) for a while until the Graphic glitches on 4.3 ROMS are dealt with sufficiently. Maybe a new PA or CM 10.1 ROM would be a good place to start. Current 4.2.2 ROMS still being developed lack many new features and recent updates.
Thanks for everyone who helps. If you agree with the idea, press THANKS below to show the number of those interested.

Try out SlimRom build 8. It's 4.2.2 and stable, fast and battery friendly and include all the customization options you need.
With that said I would also like to say that my modded stock and odexed 4.1.2 is working like a charm and nothing beats it.
Try developing yourself and you will know how difficult it is. Just begging and demanding don't work. Go fork some repos and port 4.3 changes back into 4.2
And the issue of graphic glitches is not anyone's but Samsung's fault because they haven't released updated GPU drivers. And non of the 4.3 Roms mentioned stable so such glitches are expected.
If you are not satisfied with whats avilablr then either make your own stuff or suffice with whats available.

Hi guys
This is for the ppl who are complaining about not getting updates.I just came from a 4.3 galaxy nexus to the note 2 and I just have to say that you guys aren't missing alot.
Believe me,only the notification bar changed (it became more like touchwiz),photosphere camera which I didnt use much and only some performance enhancement.
Otherwise my nexus device was getting really stale.
4.3 wont be that much groundbreaking in essence,what sammy will add on to it like n3,s4 features will make it different.
So here's hoping 4.3 will make our device even more awesome and not just some boring security update like google did on nexus devices
Cheers
Do remember that officially we're still on 4.1.2, so we're missing quite a lot like notification toggles, daydream, lockscreen customizations, etc. Also, the new update would help improve the current state of AOSP, CM based ROMs in terms of performance and more importantly battery life.

Im interested to know how the update would help aosp and cm roms. Would the devs use bits from the updated rom in their roms? The only reason I keep coming back to stock is because of poor battery life and other minor bugs. Plus the one handed keyboard and dialler. And also the stock slide to txt and dial is great

Disagree. Yes, the UI is totally different, but alongside the 'normal' Android 4.3 features (like notification toggles, daydream, etc...), we also ought to get some features we currently lack - the new SNote, the new SPen multitasking features (which I'm looking forward to very much!) and other stuff other devices won't ever get.

only good thing about nexus is fast update and look , others arent that great and its my opinion

Believe me,only the notification bar changed (it became more like touchwiz),photosphere camera which I didnt use much and only some performance enhancement.
Otherwise my nexus device was getting really stale.
4.3 wont be that much groundbreaking in essence,what sammy will add on to it like n3,s4 features will make it different.
So here's hoping 4.3 will make our device even more awesome and not just some boring security update like google did on nexus devices
Cheers

Well Guys..
I think Samsung should learn from Apple atleast about the software updates.. Google is definitely going to launch 4.4 by year end and by March 4.5 or even 5.0..
But samsung will crawl along and fool us with voiding 4.3 and going to 4.4 and the same again for 4.5 and so on. eventually we will be stuck with 4.1.2 and wait for years for 4.4 or 4.5 or even 5.0..
Atleast apple has a theory of updating their iphones every year.
Remenber the saying.. TOO MANY COOKS SPOIL THE BROTH.. Too Many Handsets from samsung spoils the update lineup.. Just to give some time for the new handset to settle in. by the time the 4.3 update will be due.. expect news on Note 4 and again wait and wait for the crap touchwiz which required updates for note 2 after 4.1.2 update..
what the hell they are doing with the testing when they again have to update for hickups..
SHAME ON U.. SAMSUNG..
Even after having only 2 handsets in the lineup for Apple.. they are still on top and now Number 1 in the market.. Samsung has hundreds and thats the reason they cannot fullfill their upgrades..

You don't appreciate devs by sharing cracked apks..
And Samsung has to make an update for everyone.
That means it should have perfect battery life that everyone demands.
That means It should have the feature of s4¬e 3 that everyone wants.
That means it should be completely but free and stable.
Either you expect that everyone is savvy enough to face and handle bugs or you think that Samsung don't face bugs or it isn't a part of development .

You can't deny the fact that he actually used it and might still be using it and maybe for more apps...

So, you're just trolling. Like I said.
Feel free to depart since you have moved on to your iPhone.
Or roll around having a tantrum like a toddler.

The fact remains it should be posted in the original thread and is not relevant to what is being discussed.
