When are we going to have something to convert our i9505 to i9505g google edition? That supports OTA.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
i understand that OTA functionality will bring updates easily but i think that if you already have the technical know-how to be able to convert a i9505 to a GE, OTA updates would be the least of your worries...

I have an int. 9505 on order, I want to run on it stock Google edition Android Un-Rooted with OTA capabilities too, I understand the friend and I share his interest, I'm not a fan of custom roms, no argument how *safe* it's android, I favor stock Un-Rooted rom on devices I use every day with all my personal info like passwords, credit cards, pins, etc

really don't understand everyone's obsession with OTA... chances at the moment are very slim, due to different bootloader and partitions... however this may soon change. In the mean time there are plenty of Google Edition roms available.

Strange thing is that some people has already start to recieve the Google edition phone with stock firmware and no one extract it so far. Why it is not already here to flash this devices

Yeah that's what I'm confused about... people were supposed to receive them 'by' the 9th...?
or maybe it was 'shipped by the 9th'?

Am I missing something here? There are already numerous builds which will make your S4 into the Google edition.

The 4.2.2 rom is official. But why do you care so much about OTA? there will be a OTA every 3-4 months. Not daily,weekly,monthly.
ALot of people think Nexus devices get alot of updates but thats not the case. Last update for My Nexus 10 + Nexus 4 was 4months ago -.-

Question to you, why ask for a ''complete'' dump in the HTC One forums if there are google edition roms in their section ?

I want to transform my S4 to the i9505G with OTA working (official) ... so i don't need to wait for rom cookers to release their own updates.
Read better. I asked for a complete dump including radio,bootloader,recovery,kernel. Not just the system dump.

OTA updates will be so few and far between they're a complete irrelevance. Look at the Google roms on here, some of them have received over ten updates already. As for being 'Official', exactly why does that matter? Do you think having an 'Official' Google edition rom on your I9505 will make getting it repaired by Samsung any more likely should something go wrong? You will have still voided your warranty regardless.
We want stock I9505GE so we can use the full memory of the phone. So complete official and new partitions..
Yes its true... no more updates

Samsung provided Galaxy S II users 2 major Android updates (Ice Cream Sandwich and Jelly Bean), a device which was released in April of 2011 and initially shipped with Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), and finally ended its support in May 2013 (25 Months).
Its now 100% that we will not get another update... but it’s time to accept the fact that the Galaxy S II – which is perhaps the best device Samsung ever made – is going to be stuck on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean forever.
So sad :banghead::banghead::banghead:

Thank you carl i already emailed you
is it possible, that our device will get roms for the next two years for example?
or does the sofware change in a way that cant be ported to the "old" s2?

Have a look in the neatrom lite thread in the s2 android development section, it is fairly simple to install if you follow the instructions on the first page, make sure you do a backup beforehand.

I think devs should now eye the port from galaxy s2 plus. It was launched on 4.2 and might get update. So if the port can take place then I think we can still carry on with this beast for a year or so

I just installed the latest version of Jelly Bean for my device I9100XWMS1, for me this version is very very awesome, phone never hang, and never hot, also Battery last very long, and it fixed my Bluetooth and cam problem that i had in older version, i recommend it for everyone...
it support english and it's unbranded so it will work on any carrier.
i can't post link because i have less than 10 posts because i'm new,
if anyone want it, you can find it online or you can send me a message and i will give you the link..

Guys, there's no need to be upset since aosp roms are always fresh and online
Checkout KitKat and Forget about Sammy Support!
The Unofficial CM11 build for our Galaxy S2 is rock stable and super ready for use as your daily driver.. Here's my review of the rom:

Hey guys, i've called Samsung Brasil and they told me that our S3 Mini will get the 4.2.2 update in the upcoming weeks, they are planning to make it before december 20th. Great news for us!!! They complete it with what's new: Some apps will have the s4 look, lockscreen with camera widget... So, let's wait.
This is NOT a joke, i've really talked to Samsung Brasil, try calling yours country's Samsung.

Did they finally updated drivers
WHile the other deviced got directly 4.3 we will have 4.2.2? At least something.
4.2.2 ...? i dont want to be negative but... 4.2.2 is already old, now we have 4.4 wating for OEMs to update his own skins... :silly:
At least samsung should update our device to 4.3 since they skipped the 4.2.2 as the normal S3, plus, our device have never received an android update beyond android 4.1.x.
Every update is cool, I know, but come on, other samsung devices are getting 4.3, why ours not?
Because they want us to buy new phones :thumbdown:

No its because of our processor STE
Is this real? I don't believe it very much but anyway 4.2 is good because in 4.3 weren't actual changes. I hope we get these s 4 apps they are just awesome

Yes but it's bearable. In cm there are variate bugs as random reboots etc. Also stock ROM has Samsung apps and Touchwiz which I personally like it. I will probably go back to stock update if it comes and when cm 4.4 kitkat is released by maclaw I will return to it...
I really doubt they are going to release a update to our phone... But obviously I would love that to happen

Relax, Samsung isn't in any hurry No reason to worry, you're by far not the only one. But hey.. You're on XDA and there are tons of TouchWiz Lollipop ROMs over here and brilliant CM builds too! Come to the dark side, it's better than the stock unrooted ROM that Samsung wil give you lol..
http://fossbytes.com/which-phones-are-getting-the-android-6-0-marshmallow-update-the-complete-list/
I am hearing alot of leaked info that our devices will get marshmallow

I hope so. A7 has excellent hardware and deserves Marshmallow

My opinion is that we should not worry about Android M as we hardly have any custom roms yet
android m come for sure,i dont know official or not (but its anyway for me) , as long as we have a source (im sure it comes from CM team) we have M,just wait!!!!
That list is far from being complete, remember they are only listing the phones that THEY KNOW are getting Marshmallow. There are more phones getting Marshmallow but that website does not know about them.
how do you know if its official or not? ;D
