R: Push Samsung to release Exynos Source Code!

I actually bought it because was one of the better community supported device. Hoping that this would imply updated system even after sammy eventually dropped support.

Now I'll see if I did the right choice... As a fact a lot of developers are running away.

[Galaxy S II General] Xerovius:
They're saying that their new exynos processors are the best and to buy exynos based devices and bla bla bla. If only other ARM SoC designers would advertise that they have better developer/GEEK (I say geek because it's a strong word the general non-tech public would understand) support and therefore the ability to do more cool things, support comparison tables etc, e.g. exynos vs snapdragon vs tegra. Maybe that would force their hand.
[Galaxy S II General] nasty159:
When I bought my Galaxy S3 I never realised the importance of the Exynos source code. I used CM10 Roms and wondered why nothing was ever moving toward a stable release. I now realise how important it is. I HATE touchwiz. It is ugly it is bulky and I don't like to use it. The only way I use it on my S3 now is if it is covered by JB Domination by vertamus and a variety of other mods.

I will be smarter next time I buy a Samsung phone. While they do have great hardware I would rather the XDA support. So soon who knows... HTC might get my money.. specifically the HTC M7. We will have to see.

Any news on the source code anyway?

Guys, stop dreaming. Samsung screwed you...
[Galaxy S II General] infst:
Sure thing it won't change anything, but this will be my last Samsung device if they don't release the sources. One major reason for my purchase was the hope for android updates using custom roms once Samsung stopped updating my i9100...:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] battleangel:
Yeah, add me to the list of people who didn't do his homework before buying the S2. I basically trusted hearsay and old internet rumors of Samsung's coziness with CyanogenMod and was confident that this coupled with the massive sales of the S2 would ensure future updates. Boy, do I feel like a moron today.

I will never buy a Samsung phone ever again. Or indeed any phone without documented hardware. I would even drop Android if I had to and there were other options available. Some sort of Linux / Ubuntu phone or whatnot. Lesson learned.
[Galaxy S II General] TheSniperFan:
AW: Push Samsung to release Exynos Source Code!

I wouldn't even buy another Samsung even IF they world release the sources anymore.

The point is that it took them forever to do so then, while Sony is infinitely better in this regard.

So of you're planning to buy a new smartphone and the current Nexus lacks something necessary for you (e.g. SD card slot), Sony is still there.
[Galaxy S II General] jj_95nano:
Re: Push Samsung to release Exynos Source Code!

Completely agree

+1

Neither did i do any research before buying the S2. If i had known there would never be stable CM because of lack of sources I would have never bought this phone. I might have gone in for an Xperia.

IMVHO we need some more visibility. The only thing big companies like Sammy fear is negative marketing.

I guess that writing some article on major android and technology blogs, asking why Sammy let its customers down after all those promises may get their attention.

For sure this forum does not make enough noise, except in a small flashaholic community.

[Galaxy S II General] Kaiserbenn:
No offense, but there is no chance Samsung will do something for us. They will announce S4 soon and will stop support for s2 after the JB release... If it is ever released. They don't care about us we only represent a small% of their customers... read the full story of exchanges between Sammie and the devs community. A ****ing shame.

There's only one thing to do: never buy a Sammie phone again.

Samsung is one of the world's biggest companies I don't think they pull this stuff on purpose

You can check espenjo's post about why Samsung messed up

They tried their own implementation of stuff in android which is a hurdle for aosp compatibility

Samsung even implemented butter differently for exynos 4 devices

Actually, Exynos 5 octa core will have PowerVR SGX544MP3 GPU, which is same as OMAP 4470 (as far as I remember). So I don't know if we'll be able to use that source code or not, seems possible and impossible both theoretically. And Exynos 5 help from nexus 10 (somewhat at least). Who knows, Samsung might make a good phone this time, and as far as I remember, last time i asked cdesai, he said Exynos 5 is open source.

Re: Push Samsung to release Exynos Source Code!

And do you freaking have any idea what you're talking about? Its chip set driver source code. How is that risky? OMAP, Snapdragons, are open source. It's just used without details. Are you happy to use Jelly Bean ROM by Samsung which has gingerbread leftovers in graphic memory allocation (Something similar, might have forgotten, Entropy mentioned it on G+).

Get your freaking facts right before acting like a smartass here.
[Galaxy S II General] Bruaca:

I read something about a code release. But maybe isn't the chip code.
[Galaxy S II General] AayushDhuria:

That's kernel source code... We need chipset (exynos) driver source code. You would see S2 forum flooded if Samsung releases that code. CM Devs will go bananas.

Please, get your "unfounded rumour" straight before even attempting to take the knowledgeable moral high ground.

Indeed...

Anyway, I digress. Samsung will not release the source, pointless circular thread frequented by Samsung haters, bullies and people who don't know what they're talking about. Close and live for the now.
