CM10 update for Galaxy S3- Release soon!

Link
Guillaume Lesniak12:07 - Public
A status update about CM10 on Samsung devices:
- The Samsung Galaxy S III's ROM is somewhat ready. As far as we know, everything works (WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC, Video playback, Calls, Audio, 3G Data, Camera, ...). It is currently undergoing some internal tests to make sure everything is fine just by installing the update ZIP, so if something goes wrong make sure to blame +Pedro Carneiro ;-) No ETA available, we will release an experimental build when we feel like it's ready, so if everything is fine it could be hours or days, if something goes wrong it could be hours or days or weeks or months or years or centuries or millenniums.
(Oh and don't even think about asking for FM Radio)
- I just started to work on the Samsung Galaxy Note. Codeworkx and Espenfjo already started on the Galaxy S II, thus some of their work profits a lot for the N7000. I'll keep you informed either here or on twitter on how things goes.
- The Samsung Galaxy S II is in a very early state, we got it booting. But since the Note is very similar, that's a lot of shared work between those two devices.
Technically speaking, the "galaxys2" device tree will turn into "i9100" to fit with the Samsung naming convention we used everywhere else in CyanogenMod device trees, and a new galaxys2-common tree will appear.
We really have no ETAs for all these devices, we really go for a "When it's done" approach, even for the S3 ROM. It could be released tonight, the same way it could be released next week. It depends on our free time and on how things go around. As for the Note/S2, there's still many things to do before giving an estimate, so stay patient.
I hope this post will calm down people bugging Hacksung on Twitter regarding Galaxy devices and Jelly Bean ;-)
Back to work!

So it looks like everything is working and they are into final testing . I hope for a release before the end of this month, but let's see! Exciting news for S3 owners!

Yes it certainly is. Second phone in the world to get jellybean?
Makes me feel ok that I just sold my nexus.

3rd phone may be... JB for us variant of s3 just got released.

This makes me very happy! Can't wait to run JB because at the moment, the Galaxy Nexus that I sold to my cousin makes this phone seem slow!
Here's hoping for a release within the next week

I'm really hoping Samsung also get their build out soon. I think they will, seeing as they are now such a huge player in the Android market. There is a lot of users out their now that have bought into their brand, and i'm thinking they're gonna do everything to keep them happy and away from Apple products.
Anyways, in the meantime, we are lucky buggers to have talented individuals in our community making ROMs and builds and generally making us smile.
Nice 1 to all devs.

I heard nov-dec somewhere but mby Im just making it up.

Workin' fine...

I'm truly flabbergasted that the devs have managed to get so much working in such an incredibly short time. Truly very impressive. I done a good bit of coding at university and sorting what seems like pitiful problems takes a lot of time and effort as well as being very frustrating. You guys must be very talented.
I'll probably give it a go, this butter UI project has me very interested. But would love to see ParanoidAndroid rom asap too. (Tablet mode is just awesome)
Well done cm team. I will donate to you guys on pay day next week.

Will our i9305 neighbors take away good developers?

I am a bit skeptical about how the ROM porting and developing for the good old low RAM (I must note that I am joking as there are a lot of flammable s3 owners that won't get this) i9300 will continue now after the i9305 is officially out and has its own section. What is your opinion?

Unless they get donations for new phones or can afford to spend another £500 on a phone, i think we are safe...

yes... all the developers are going to dump i9300 and getting 9305 this week. All of us gonna rot in hell without any mods, development.........................

Just have a look at the Galaxy SII forums. Development is still very active. Development for this phone is gonna continue for a bit so I don't think you have anything to worry about. And not only that- but lets say every single dev left the i9300 ... we are still left with like 3 pages full of ROMs! We are sitting pretty. It's like the Galaxy SII Skyrocket scenario .. we all good baby!

some of us was very supportive, sometimes we donate to show our appreciation to them, but there are people will just leave without saying anything, and we being keep waiting and waiting, i remember there is one developer alexullde - xliterom 1.4.0 was his last Rom, he just disappear without saying anything, if i happen to see him developing new custom Rom in future after upgrading my phone, i were have to think twice from now...

Think twice about what? The fact that there's a chance ANY developer could do that same thing? .. and that's their right. Same thing has happened to a lot of us. Anyone remember eSPyEL- (I forget its been so long). I'm not saying always but most of the time the dev will put up a [FINAL] version. But we have to remember this is life, **** happens. Sometimes unexpected. I'm sure you've gathered this by now but flashing custom ROMs doesn't come with guarantees. And believe me, I've donated probably more than a lot of people on here have... multiple times. The fact is, this isn't they're day job and we all know that. Just because we donate doesn't guarantee we will have ROM support in the future. I think of donations as a way of Thank You for what we already have. Not trying to sound like a douch but if you want full ROM support for as long as you have your device, stock is the only solution.

That is what I don't understand..some people just use what is available..make a big noise if something does not work (most of the times their own fault)..if everything works out fine, don't even go back to give a feedback forget donating...
It's sad!!
Sorry for being Off Topic coz I believe Devs will be there as long as users support them..morally and maybe financially!!

This is unfair..don't remember that you donate to show your appreciation for what they DID, not to obligate them to work in the future, this is a different thing, developers do what they can in their free time, and that is disrespectful for developers, remember that they are the reason for some devices live long ( look at the HD2 ) , if not you will have an iPhone and every year you'll upgrade to... the same..
Respect and thanks to developers.

I'm sorry if i have something unpleasant, it can't be help it developer has stop developing the Rom, we have to respect their decision, but at least let us know.
some developer did mention that they have already upgraded their phone in the forum that it will be his last custom for this version and hopping to see us again on the next forum, for sure we will be happy to see those familiar developer again once we have a chance to upgrade our phone. i agree with your point too, no hard feeling if i sound unfriendly here, I'll be more happy to make more friends here then create more enemy...

Do not forget that some devs stay here and help and develop and they refuse accepting donations.
Harunjo from Galaxih kernel, did this and when i asked him why he won't accept donation,
He said that is enough for him that he loves what he does and feedback is enough. What a great Guy! Honestly

We're safe.. lol.
Heck the S1 is still in active development.
The S3 (I9300) sold millions of units.
The I9305 probably sold a fraction of that, just like the S1 Plus, these 'bonus' versions die quicker than the actual thing,

I Dont know whether you class me as a good DEV, but i will be around, at least for 2 years
So you can couint on me even if everyone else dissapears

Can't wait to welcome all devs in I9305 section. I feel my phone is useless without getting chances to tweaks n mods

We stopped developing because of Sammy.
They are wretched hypocrites who think they're boss now and can do whatever they want.
Someone needs to set them in their place that without us, they wouldn't be where they are today.

Yawn. Samsung got where they were because of good spec innovative phones at non premium prices NOT because of the small minority who choose to use aosp or cmor custom roms. I appreciate it does not help a small amount of users and thats a pain but please will people stop churning out the same rubbish.
I have 6 colleagues in my office all using samsung phones if i even mentioned cm to them or even custom roms all i would get is a blank stare only peeps in the scene are aware and in relation to the tens of millions of phones sold each year only a really small minority are affected

Samsung is sharing kernels and source codes just wait.it usually does.and they sure appreciate you.and not so many people die from maralia when considering 7 billion people but people fighting malaria are actually doing great job.
I hereby kiss those hands that work and develope for my device and only get happy with a tnx.
When i see a rom thread i hit thanks,by the way i only used ultimate jb v5.1.
The fact is that developers and coding people and software engineers are a little in background so people dont know who they really are
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

Honestly as a developer i am waiting for official JB!

Yes, we here at the xda developers, from a regular flashoholics to the great developers are in minority of all smartphone users. For example xda comunity counts about 5milions users, and only samsung sold about 10 milion galaxy notes n7000 (I think I'm right?) That tells you something, about minority:silly:
I also known a lot of people who are never heard anything about rooting or custom roms, and they are happy with stock devices. Some of them are even programmers LOL
But...
belive or not we at xda made their devices better. The great developers from xda push these softwares/roms/kernels to the limits. (now talking about samsung) Samsung uses this like their own. One example is g.Lewarne with his NoteCore and HydraCore kernels. I remember when I bought N7000, it came with xxlpy, then i flashed cleanote xxlrq and testing his kernels. Benchmark results was insane at this time (and they are insane now ) When he reach the sky with this kernel... Samsung realease xxlrt, and guess what, benchmark results are the same like it was on notecore kernel, boot up time, and other thing also...
So...
someone talks about samsung and their source code. Yeah they are ****heads, I can not imagine how the things would look now if they realeased it allready
p.s. yeah I know that the point of the thread is noobs vs developers, and it is realy sad I just returned from a nephew birthday, and drink a couple of beers, so what
EDIT: And thanks to the xda comunity I allready runing fully working xxlsc JB with 240dpi, nova launcher, xposed app, ripple lock, multiview, airview, butter smooth, and I dont give a damn about the official update. Made a backup and I sleep thight

Who cares about stock when we have a lovely developer like You

Don't buy a Nexus 4.. it has issues in heat dissipation.. so, as a safety measure the phone switches itself off when it reaches 60 degrees Celsius.. underclocks itself to 1.2 GHz at 35-40 degrees.. Though someone already found a workaround for it.
I think u know all this already..
HTC One will be a killer!
Well, what u'll buy depends on how much money u have saved..
nd yeah, ofcourse, THANKS A LOT! :thumbup:

Xiaomi Mi-2 is the best device you can get for 350€! Now with MIUI v5. It's really a great phone. Much better than Optimus G and nexus 4 even if they share the same hw. And with weekly updates too . You'll never look back to other phones eheh.

First of all, sorry if I do some gramatical errors when I write in english ... English isn't my default language
After have used 3 iPhones (3GS, 4 & 4S), I've decided to left the Apple's smartphone. Reason? Reason is very simple, after doing the update to iOS 6.1.2, my wifi button is became greyed and still greyed I try to discuss with Apple to swap my iPhone but no change ... In Belgium, the warranty for Apple is ONE year and following european regulations, the warranty should be at least 2 years!!!
So I decide to change the rule and break the wall ... After a benchmark of the market (S3, S3 4G, (future) S4, HTC One, Z, etc.) I choose the S3 4G.
Ok, no problem to change the world when using natively Google ... Stop the iPhone, put the SIM into the S3 4G GT-I9305 and let's go.
After the first period of excitement a bug appears ... some time the S3 don't ring when incoming call came ...
First part of the solution, change the SIM to a newest. Conclusion: better signal from the Proximus network (4G).
After 2-3 weeks using the native Samsung Android version (4.1.2), I investigate to flash my S3.
So, because I'm using a Mac, Odin is not a good idea.
Based on this forum, I decide to follow the steps below:
1) Backup IMEI through a Windows PC
2) Download directly from Cyanogemod site: Clockwork Mod Recovery, Heimdall, CM 10.1 and Google Apps
3) Upload to the SDCard of my S3 the CM 10.1 and Google Apps zip files
4) Using Heimdall, I flashed veeeeery quickly CWM without problem
5) Reboot and go to CWM menu to wipe and install CM and Google
So, as from past saturday my S3 is working on CM 10.1 Android 4.2.2.
First result: The fluidity and the daily confort is better with CM than native Samsung firmware.
Just a "bug" ... incoming calls make no sound by vibrations yes ... following this forum, I've maybe a problem with my MP3 ringtone. So, I'm using a native ringtone and waiting for a non ringing incoming call
A great thanks to Cyanogenmod and XDA to provide a very profesional experience based on native Android.
Kind regards,
Andr3.be

Hello HTCSnap93,
I'm not a Fleming but I speak flemish
Currently, yes i'm happy with Android ... I've also an iPad but ... i'm looking for a Android tablette :angel: so wait an see

XDA needs more people like you, taking time to research your problems without spamming the boards with questions.
I think you will be happy with Android, it's so much less restrictive than iOS

Haha that verb should go in urban dictionary "To glebun, the act of spamming forums with useless posts just to raise your post count"
But let's not derail the thread.

Dear all,
Thanks for your 'hello messages' :victory:
And don't panic guys, that's not usual for me to flood the board with stupid questions ... Google is my 'best friend'. :good:
This evening, I've experienced the CM update ... Wait for download done, reboot the S3 ... and that's fingers in the nose to update my S3 with CM :good:
I'm happy with my Jelly Bean and I love the easter egg ... Multiple taps on Android version shows the red Jelly Bean

This post is much better than the normal 20 posts saying "how do I do this, that or the other" when the questions have already been answered.

Oh yeah. I totally agree on this. Well, people wouldn't mind if those "how do I do this, that or the other" are asked on the Q&A forum or in the specific thread. But on General forum? Oh gosh! That is just ridiculous.

Well, this is my first Android mobile too. And I came from a couple iPhone experiences and Symbian N8.
I totally discovered a new world here on Xda. With iPhone I became a lazy user taking and standard apps and there isn't much to customize...
Symbian scene is half dead (still a pity btw) so Android was the better option for those who want some challenge and improvement of the device.
Pity I'm just a beginner but since I started reading this forum I learnt so many things :fingers-crossed:

I remember being impressed with IOS initially, now it drives me mad, not even being able to change your keyboard or properly interact with the filesystem, it's nice to be free! I'm loving CrDroid at the moment, so much to play with.
