Goodbye and thanks for the ride - Galaxy S III General

Well the beloved S3 is on eBay and I have in my hands a new beautiful and very exclusive One Plus One.
So its time to say thanks for all the help and entertainment for the last couple of years on this forum, as was the case before with the SGS1 and Nexus S forums where I enjoyed myself equally.
I have to say Sammy's reluctance / inability to upgrade is SGS3 users to Kitkat has soured my allegiance to to the Samsung line of flagship devices, but I'm excited about my venture with this fantastic new handset running CM11s and heading over to the OPO XDA forums.
Thanks and good luck guys!

Why, excellent choice of phone, my good Sir mossy!

Happy New Year!

I know this may not quite be the right forum for this, but I did want to wish all of you users and developers a great and happy new year! I bought my first Android phone on Jan. 5th (the Nexus One) and coming over from 2.5 years of iPhone, I haven't looked back. This forum is what continues to spark and keep my interest in the platform, be it playing with some shiny ROMs or chiming in on interesting ideas and debates.
I've learned a ton from everyone here and I wish XDA and all its users the best! Cheers to a great 2011!!
(Posting in N1 and NS forums, as they were/are my first and current phones)
Happy New Year to you aswell.

With our economy, only by this way they sell and you buy.

Shame we have to much tax even for things like smartphone here in my place..
S3 priced around USD 710 - 750 (without contract, open sim/network).. Even iphone 4 is more than USD 450
Even this Legend, i bought it 2nd hand singapore set for USD 120
Well really bad in there. Here is not that easy... But sometimes something good happens and we need to enjoy it.
Stay safe!

Take care ^^
I may be joining you soon with the Galaxy Note II. Hopefully my Legend can hang on a little longer
I´ve sold my Legend to my friend... He had an HTC Magic, sold it and bought my. An upgrade also!
Legend is still on the move!
I love HTC with sense, so I'll buy HTC One X once I have enough money
My two daughters abandoned their Legends for iPoop so I finally got to root and custom ROM them as spare phones. They wouldn't let me do it when they were using them, even though I told them they would be better.
They had a look after I flashed them and said "WOW they didn't work like that when we had them".
EHEHEEH
Finally they see the Android on the best way!
You got a very great website forum.xda-developers.com , Glad I noticed it through yahoo. regards
I've moved on to an HTC One S S4.
Really owe this community a lot for all the stuff I managed to do with Legend
Hard to believe the Legend's nearly three years old. I still don't even have a fallback phone! Maybe an old One X or the Nexus 4. :-$

The Official Goodbye thread (sold your tab, etc)

Well guess I'll start this one. I am selling my tablet and buying a Nexus 7.
I've put it on Craigslist for $150 firm. I will miss the sd slot. Guess I will put my 32gb card in my note. This is a great community here and I love the official cm support but the Nexus has better. (Support, not community )
If I could just get people to not back out of deals.

Just signed up for E-bay and hoping to get rid of my tab A.S.A.P n get me some A.O.K.P .....on a nice new shiny Nexus 7.
Selling for £100 (Paid £199 for it) and will be getting the 32GB WiFi only Nexus for £199...Yup same price as i paid for my SGT2 7~ P3110
The P3110 isnt a bad Tab , Just the Nexus 7 has more to offer and will have lots more coming its way this year. I'm really tempted to keep both, but do I need them both.
Anyone in London wants a cheap tab PM me lol. Be around for a week or two I guess ?
Its been fun :laugh:
I would miss the IR blaster
Yeesh!
Scottx and Sean ..... sad to see two of our early and active tab users go. However, I cannot negate your feelings. I myself have been contemplating making this move as I use a galaxy nexus and to me , nothing beats vanilla android.
However , looking at the random hardware issues ( screen lift, sound etc) that people have been posting on the nexus 7 forum...I was not sure if it was worth the gamble. Am pretty sure Asus got their act together...but again...my head says stick with this. And am trying to convince myself that 6 more months and the next nexus tab may land ...
In Any case... Nexus 7 is the best bang for the Buck! It'll be fun.
Have a great life and thanks for sharing and assisting others.

Thanks for the kind words , means a lot
I really do like this tab and have enjoyed watching the development of this tab all the way. Testing out the ROMS all the devs have supplied for us , all the way from CM9 , CM10 , Romswells deodexed stock flavours ( fantastic work),The darkly delicious Baked ROMs and the awesome AOKP builds. Flashing stuff literally every day , customizing it and posting screens. Helping people out when I could was and still is fun.
Personally I just feel that I'm missing out on stuff that the Nexus has to offer, Being addicted to Android comes at a cost lol. I may even keep the tab and use it as a digital photo frame or get a dock and use it as an alarm clock so something. I have had so much fun using this tab and I would miss it in a way. The forum is one of the better ones on XDA for sure and has some great users and devs.
I thank and salute you all. Happy flashing :laugh:
Hope you guys have better luck with the Nexus than I did. That was the biggest piece of crap I've ever owned. To compound the problem I talked my son into getting one soon after I did and now he's having the same problems I'm had. I practically gave mine away just so I wouldn't have to look at it any longer. I bet I turned the damn thing on 50 times a day after it would just shut down for no reason. Good Luck.
I traded my gt2 even up for a mint condition galaxy nexus gsm international version.
Now I'm selling the note and getting another tablet.
I miss it already though.
Goodbye guys. Thanks for the great times and chat. Take good care of that screenshot thread I made

Thanks man for the kind words. It's people like us that make this place what it is.
Loving this gnex. It runs so smooth. Can't wait to get a Nexus 7 to match. If I come across a good deal on another gt2 I'll buy it. I just couldn't pass this trade up. I really feel like I came out ahead on the deal. My tab was still mint even though I had it since May. That guy got a nice tablet. He might show up here. He had rooted the gnex and changed the kernel. I put 01-06-13 CM 10.1 on the tab and I figure he'll want to update it sooner or later.
Anyway. Take care everyone and feel free to pm me if needed!

I sold my Tab2 today and I wanted to say a few words to this community!
I have been a Tab 2 user since the week it was released and from the days where we just got root to all the way till the end (until I sold it).... it has been fun! Everyone was so damn helpful and I wanted to say Thank you! I have used other android devices before but this group was different. Super nice, patient and helpful!
Have fun with your tabs fellas! Good luck and be well!

Goodbye my beloved Note users. It's been a great journey.

I was here since the dawn of the Note.
People gawked at the idea of a 5.3" phone.
It didn't made sense to them.
It looked stupid they said.
It's definitely a Dead on Arrival they said.
Look at where we are now.
It sold plenty of millions.
I was here since the high & lows of the Note.
I never forget the first time I looked at that gorgeous screen.
I never forget how clever and useful the S-Pen was.
I was excited when the first test build for CM9 came.
I never forget the first Chinese leak for ICS on the Note.
I will never forget the sheer number of bricks due to Samsung incompetence.
I never forget the look of my face when the official ICS came out.
Gingerbread UI on Ice Cream Sandwich. A major disaster.
It seems like yesterday when nobody actually believed that TouchWiz 5.0 was coming to the Note.
I had to do all the convincing and from there we got the first leak.
I will never forget the frustration of the devs that Samsung become a hypocritical ***** and wouldn't give us the Exynos docs & sources.
Some of you know me in the past when I created some wonderful ROM's and in the process some controversy.
It's been a great and a wonderful journey.
I'm moving to the One.
Goodbye.
The One ?
Well then, see you around after some time mate !
Odp: Goodbye my beloved Note users. It's been a great journey.

Got the z with the L. Was a note 1 user for 2years. Thers high n lows with note1.most of the time it gave me flashes of throwing it out of the window. I would say nothing can beat note 1 for its camera and screen clarity.
Cant wait for the 'one'
and now im using sony zl. Pretty cool phone i would say, lasted for 2days on single charge (moderate use). No laggy issues at all. Solid build and Smooth....

Interested in Hyperdrive ROM for note 10.1 2014? Support needed.

Hello all Note 10.1 2014 owners.
I am starting this thread to see who is interested in a Hyperdrive ROM.
If you are not familiar, it is a ROM developed by sbreen94 on predominantly Samsung Galaxy devices. Probably one of the best and most popular ROMs out there. Check a few of the Galaxy development threads and you will understand.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4600715
http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4600715
He has been developing for the old Note 10.1 for a while, he does not own a Note 10.1 2014. However, he said if we can put a 2014 edition in his hands he would be more than willing to create the ROM.
Is there any interest in this? I figure a 16gb refurb would do which can be had for around $350.
haspampel and hashcheck have developed two great KK ROMS so far, but it seems development for this tablet is otherwise lacking. This would be a superb addition.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
UPDATE 5/23/2014
Everything looks to be in place. Nabour's costs have been covered, see her post if interested in the details. Any further donations should be directed to sbreen as additional people see fit.
We will now patiently await, and I stress patiently . Any additional insights could be posted in this thread while sbreen is developing but let's not be bothering him. To quote Fat Sam from the movie Fletch "When it comes, it comes"
Thanks again to all who made this happen!
Depends... we would get him for wi-fi only version or lte?
:good: If users around here are interested in this, i would be happy to make and support a rom for you!
We really need a custom rom for P601 badly, I know that would be a big hit here now, as currently there is only 1 that is not upgraded that often.
Ran Hyperdrive ROM on my ATT S3 for a long time before exploring KitKat Rom options. Lots of options and customization. I'd definitely be interested if a ROM was developed.
Definately interested! SM-P600 here...
After how Scrolser took our money and ran I don't really trust donating to anyone anymore.

I'm sure you're a nice person and all and well respected here on XDA. Problem is... so was Scrolser and he left us out to dry. A well respected Dev and he got our money, bought the tablet and ended up selling it later while promising to still update our note's (which hasn't happened BTW). Yeah... that left a pretty sour taste in my mouth.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk
Guys, sbreen94 is the real deal. He currently supports 4 or 5 devices. He just doesn't get a new one and forgets about the old ones like some devs do. I will start off the bidding at $20.00 for the wifi model (P600). This would be a most excellent addition to the Note 10.1 2014 community.

I can definitely see how that would upset you and I think it would me too. In the end this is up to you guys and whether or not you guys would like a killer rom for your device. I'll continue to support the phones that I currently own either way

Guys, I would totally support Mr. Breen. I have used Hyperdrive on my Galaxy Note 3 and it is an amazing rom. He is an experienced, top-rated developer.
Let me know how this works - do we just start sending donations, or is it more organized than that.
Barbara
Yes!
I would love to see this rom available for this device!
P600
I would be ok to trow some bucks in for p605, but i doubt there will be anyone else, since we are so few. (i think?)
You can count on 10$ donation from me if you decide to start working on it.
Donations etc.
I figured it would be for the P600 since that is what a majority of people probably own, and it is the easier of the three to be had for a lower price.
I don't know how to organize donations. Perhaps we should do it bounty style with people posting what they can contribute, I'll keep track.
Put me down for $40.
sbreen is legit. He has always well supported all of his roms for all of his devices. I think you'll have an impossible time finding anyone to say anything negative about his work.
Let's keep this ball rollin' :laugh:

Thanks for the support guys. I would say let's go for the Wi-Fi model which is the P600 I'm assuming. I think posting the amount you are able to contribute in this thread is good so we can keep track. I should probably be able to chip in like 50$ of my own funds toward it
