[Nook Touch General] fosselman:
This will be a nice update for non xda users. For those of us on these forums though, unless they give us something newer than android 2.1 I don't see much of a benefit to the update.
[Nook Touch General] domi.nos:
If it is true they finally went to mind. I just hope it will be properly done, not some sloppy job.

I wonder when the zip file will appear on the B&N site? It's June now, so perhaps sometime this week?

An upgrade to a 2.2 (or better) base would be great, but unlikely IMO. Also, full access to the Android Market would be unlikely too (because so many apps aren't developed to run on E-Ink), even though the Nook HD and Nook HD+ did receive such an upgrade.
[Nook Touch General] alecoddlyiv:
When registering a cc with the site I had a popup for a live chat and spoke to someone who stated there is no update scheduled.

That's not to say it wont happen but as it didn't happen when rumoured the chances are that is all it was.

Which is why i got off the page and rooted immediately:D
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
I don't see B&N making that much of a push behind the Nook Touch.

It seems their emphasis is now on the LCD tablets.

I fear that the B&N eInk stuff is at the end of its life.
[Nook Touch General] jumpingclear:
Has anyone heard any more about this? The rumour said that the update would be released in June and it still hasn't arrived. I have just got a nook and I am looking into rooting it but thought it might not be a good idea if an official update is imminent.
[Nook Touch General] domi.nos:
No. You can root and then unroot. But I think, if this is going to happen, probably there is coming new nook touch with those options ....

[Nook Touch General] geemacd:
Announcement today that nook not going to make their tablets anymore, they are only going to manufacture the ebook readers, so will this maker more focused support to make this update happen?

I for one, would really love for this update to take place
[Nook Touch General] tyepye:
Yeah patiently awaiting the update.

Hopefully they will focus on the current ST and not release a newer version with an updated spec and forget all about the ST.

Still dreaming of an updated android on it!
[Nook Touch General] johnseeking:
I wouldn't hold my breath. When they recently updated their tablet line to include Google Play Store, the original Nook Tablets and everything older (like the Nook Color, ie: stuff they were no longer selling) didn't get it. It's more "profitable" for them to focus on nice new stuff for upcoming products - or so their actions seem to say. :crying:
[Nook Touch General] anders8:
I think you guys are on the wrong track...

That's an announcement for version 1.5 from back in 2010... for the original nook. If you go to the BN support page, you can see they're already up to 1.7 for that nook.

Looks like we'll be sticking right where we are. :(

[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] Yousufs2:
Sorry I Am New To Android Development:(
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] ptothej:
Before porting any rom, i do advise to go through few tutorials to see how android is build etc.

Basically you try to port a rom from any device, but it is strongly recommended to port rom from a similiar spec device.
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] Brian_SGW_CM9:
Well I don't think the s2 is very much different from our phone
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] ptothej:
Well both phones are running on different processor, s2 has more storage.

Similiair to s2+ i i9082 known as grand duos or something like that ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] doctor_droid:
Lol

its entirely different

S2 has exynos

S2p has broadcomm

Entire soc is different:D
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] panda00:
Well, it wouldn't be too much of a problem at all. Porting devices with Cyanogenmod as a base is easy, a lot of tutorials available... but make sure the device has the same resolution and the ROM you're trying to port is also based on Cyanogenmod (AOKP, PA, PAC, MIUI etc.).
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] D0MIS:
But i could install S2 rom to S2+? or better not even to try?
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] nickchk:
sure,why not? just don't cry if you brick ur device. ;)
[Galaxy S 4 General] Entropy512:
So you did not write this yourself (from the sounds of the last line you wrote), but you don't provide a link to the original source or credit beyond a veiled reference to sammobile?
[Galaxy S 4 General] windozeanti:
Let me guess, so Exynos Octa is a fail product? :laugh:
[Galaxy S 4 General] aami.aami:
well its not exactly a fail product, cause as the article and research said, the final product has not got enough homework as it deserved.

im pretty sure samsung would fix this in Note 3 and i highly doubt that samsung would introduce Note 3 without Exynos processor. it will have Snapdragon 800 (i wish) but it will also have exynos version. samsung would not leave its own chip just like that!
[Galaxy S 4 General] BoneXDA:
It runs the fastest mobile phone ever, it just never reached it's full potential, you know topping out round 2.3GHz, proper core migration for efficiency and total smoothness, stronger GPU. Then again, it's still the industry leader, but not without issues, so I guess Sammy will work on it, possibly bringing it over 20nm.
[Galaxy S 4 General] gdonanthony:
OMG !! after reading i want to sell my i9500 :(

this device is 50-50 ... 50% updates 50% legacy !

if this will be considered a fail project i will break this into two !!!! rawr ~~~ im so dammnn dead !
[Galaxy S 4 General] aami.aami:
come on guys dont be like this! u should be really proud of ur S4! blunder from samsung aside, why dont u feel pride on ur S4 that being a bit not what it should have been it still is the fastest smartphone on the market right now and that will remain until Note 3 comes out...!

Why is this thread 60% of whining while only 40% of problem solving? I'll quote what I said in another thread.

[Galaxy S 4 General] deathnotice01:
I see your intentions

But would you let these companies screw your hard earned money?

At least let corporations work hard at providing us a product worth every cent.

Samsung did a terrible job at rushing things with the device. They have sacrificed a huge margin of time trying to implement protocols which they knew in the first place would have a risk of being feasible for the entire market.

So now they defray their failures to us by selling a partially finished product with huge non-uniform variants of the same device name then make all these crazy impulsive changes then run away with our money then denying most of the issues that are clearly present.

They even don't document their own chip pretty well neither.

So we just got screwed by samsung.

Better rick roll ourselves at most.

[Galaxy S 4 General] tclocki:
How would we feel barry with our 9500s without you barry.

Seriously, as a consumer, all i want is to know that i have the best and fastest smartphone when i traded my hard earned cash for it. As long as i know that i can run my desired apps faster than any other device out there, i know that i have gotten my money's worth. I couldnt care less if samsung hasnt done enough homework to utilize the big little technology at its fullest.

So please lets stop with the whining and complaining about the 9500 because its not helping out those who have gotten it. All of this to me feels like all bitterness. No punn intended. Just my thoughts. Thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 General] crzr:
I knew that something little will be wrong with the octa, since it is the first time release, I think that all of these issues will be corrected by Samsung surely. I will stick with my GT-I9100G (beast-of-a-smartphone BTW is giving fight nowadays) until a new octa-core with those issues fixed comes up, may be the note 3
[Galaxy S 4 General] x.Orville.x:
So i need to sell my octa one
[Galaxy S 4 General] jinosong:
What's the big deal guys? So big.LITTLE isn't working as expected. We're still using the A15 processor which is a beast. The only benefit of big.LITTLE is enhanced battery life and even that is on par with the other flagship devices.
[Galaxy S 4 General] hoezay:
I love this phone. ( I wish they'd fix this M****R F*****G Camera Reboot issue.) But I bought it because of the lies they told me.
[Galaxy S 4 General] noideaforusername:
What lies? When did they tell anything about how the CPU will work? Can you provide a link please? :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 General] Tears for Fears:
Well, battery life is something companies achieve, not implement. An inferior battery life is a misachievement. Similar to how HTC expected the camera of One to to amazing due to the "ultra pixels", however, it ended up as just average for 2013.

Basically, Samsung promised a better battery life, well, as far as I know, 65h from 45-50h is indeed better. They've shown three scenarios in which the big.LITTLE can run. However, they never promised which mode will actually work on I9500.

Maybe it's just me but I really don't see how Samsung screwed anyone over.
[Galaxy S 4 General] inolvidable:
My main concern is about support (official and unofficial). IMO, if GT-I9500 turned out to be the only major device with this version of the Exynos it would loose appeal despite its sale numbers. A vast predominance of developer friendly Krait cores (600 & 800) amongst HTCs, LGs and most of Samsung's new devices could be relevant.

I hope there is still some room for enhancements software wise or whatever reason that draws and keeps developers attention to the Exynos

¡¡So say we all!! from my GT-I9500
[Galaxy S 4 General] Funkym0nkey:
Samsung has exynos in its home market. No need to worry about official support. If snapdragon gets something i9500 will Hey it. Probably earlier to be honest.

I am not huge fan of CM or aosp ROMs on devices like S4. I love my Nexus 4 but for S4 I would rather have stock based custom ROM like I am running now. I can install nova and make it look like I want while keeping all Sammy features like camera ui and modes.

From my Galaxy S4, in your face.....
[Galaxy S 4 General] sachinaik:
Yes sammy screwed up.

My mobile has random reboot issues and forget about running at 1.6 ghz.... it drinks battery like water...

But i downclocked it to 1Ghz and below are advantages :

1. Phone stays very cool

2. Antutu at 22k !!! Better than my N2.

3. Superior wolfson codec compared to GT-I9505.

4. Full hd comapred to my N2.

5. Better battery life since 1Ghz.

6. It overall feels solid stable at 1Ghz.

Supercurio is coming up with his magic.

Andrie is gona provide all kernel features that he used to provide in N2...

I like the features in my s4 hence dont wanna goto CM...

So m still happy with my GT-I9500 :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] inolvidable:
I am also very happy with my GT-I9500. Even now, for several reasons, I would go for it again. I just hope this challenging device can keep developers' interest on the long term.

As an example, there is no triangle away for the Octa and we don't know if there will be. This is not about Chainfire, whose reasons are more than logical and understandable (thank you for everything, by the way). My point is... well I think you get my point :D ... I am also truly grateful to all the developers involved now with the GT-I9500

¡¡So say we all!! from my GT-I9500

What a hugely over-hyped artical :silly:

Don't understand all the sooking... Got no problems with my phone.. VERY fast.. battery life is as good if not better then my old Note 2

If I wanted CM I woulda spent half the price and gotten a Nexus.. feeling like your gunna die (Post#6) because of this article really should make you re-assess your life's priorities.. seriously :eek:

Firmware updates for the i9500 are rolled out as quickly as the i9505.. what's the problem?

Every benchmark except 3dmark is quicker then the i9505..

EVERY BATTRY BENCHMARK BEATS THE i9505 or at the very least is comparable.

Seriosly people Samsung haven't yet responded to the CLAIMS.. that's right everything MartinR wrote in his article are all claims...

CCI could have been implemented differently in this version of little Big... see what I did there.. I've speculated.. sheesh...
[Galaxy S 4 General] azdine57:
However people are content with this model. Where is the real problem?

Sent from my Octa using New Tapatalk 4
[Galaxy S 4 General] danveer:
Exactly!!

For the very least its a much better implementation than tegra with only 1 companion core.

In this case most stuff from web browsing to temple run, we have a7 doing the work.

A15 kicks in at the right moment to reduce loading times and provide great performance.

For starters we are getting best of both types of cores and even if a new type of working of big little is present isn't something new just around the corner always.

For octa users it would be the new migration code next year as an upgrade to this years big little

For snapdragon users krait 400 cores and adreno 330 gpu will be present as an upgrade.

Just because something could not be done at the moment makes it a faliure...
[Galaxy S 4 General] Funkym0nkey:
The real world results are completely different though. I am on Wanam (with adam kernel) on 9505 and Perseus + Doc combo on 9500. I have installed all regular apps like gmail, search, maps youtube over DOCs and both are running identical programs with identical settings. The kernels are different because I found these to be currently best available combo of rom + kernel on each device for my use.

And after I got 9505 I switched alternate day between 9500 and 9505 and battery life on similar usage is better on 9500. A lot better to be honest.

Probably because I dont game too much. Just some 2d arcade games and my A15 is kicking in only about 2-4% of the time at its maximum speed and another 3-4% at 1200Mhz on my use.

But even with defunct core migration, just with cluster migration the 9500 is pulling ahead by about whole 40-50 minutes extra screen time or about 15% less battery consumption at the end of the day. If I did not wait to drain it completely, I am usually at 40% battery left with 4.5 hours of screen on time by the time I reach home at night and am done with most of the things. Same usage 9505 goes down to 25-27% battery left. Daily it is same usage.

The problem with scripted tests like gsmarena is that they nullify the entire advantage of cluster migration at the moment as it just loops 1 test at a time. If one of those kick A15 in, then that test is going to be heavily in favour of S600 without taking into consideration performance or real world scenario where people are not going to run scripted browsing tests for hours at time.

It would have been wonderful if the core migration was working. It is obviously not at the moment looking at the evidence. But even without it, even with the current development work done on these phones. I will take Exynos every day. I know I dont need that power, but it is nice to have. And some of the 2d Games I play dont play nice with Snapdragon S600 for some reason. Not restricted to S4 either, they had same issues on One.

Anyway, it is endless argument, but I for one would still want Exynos phone. I have spent zero hours on stock ROMs. And every since I installed Omega or DOC's rom I have not had single issue with extreme overheating or battery drain on my 9500. All is well here. Enough for me to finally make a decision to give up on One for good.

What I really want is Samsung to be little more cooperative with devs and release more documentation.
[Galaxy S 4 General] hoezay:
Sorry didn't mean to offend/ upset you. What I should have said was, Forget about all this , It's supposed to be the best device ever, but the camera reboots the phone ? wtf.
[Galaxy S 4 General] noideaforusername:
I only suffered from it once and since ME1 never suffered this :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] hoezay:
Ufortunately I was on ME1 ( Wanam's ) and Adam's Kernel 1.3.1 still gave me reboots :( now on Adams Kernel 1.3.2 and testing
[Galaxy S 4 General] barondebxl:
Yep, the I9500 definitely has outstanding battery life . I was using omega with perseus kernel and it was EASY to get more than 5 hours on screen time with HEAVY usage, I mean real easy. I looked at the CPU spy app and the phone was mostly using the LITTLE cores and almost never the big cores but again it depends on each individual usage. But if battery life is what ppl are worry about, well they shouldn't be cause at least the I9500 ( didn't use the I9505) has amazing battery life. Not to mention that gaming is so smooth as well.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gillion:
Camera crash seems to be related to low RAM on the device.

I close my apps now.

Otherwise...

I swipe out apps from task manager and start camera no crash ever comes up.

Camera/system (LMK) cant make enough room in RAM when phone has many apps in background cache and foreground.

Guess I was right after all, about people ending up being disappointed with the I9500 in the end, and wishing they got the I9505.
[Galaxy S 4 General] BarryH_GEG:
When the SGS4 was revealed everyone was pissed because it was so evolutionary and started calling it the SGS3s. One version has a revolutionary and radical SoC and people here, on a supposed tech site no less, crap all over it and prefer the five year old architecture of S-600. I’d buy the i9500 without question because I’m guessing its upside over the next few months is huge compared to S-600 which pretty much is what it is. People should buy what they want and not worry about other people’s decision making. And I'm guessing if the distribution were reversed and was 2/3 Octa 1/3 S-600 the 2/3 on Octa would be crapping on S-600. This reminds me of a "SGS4 vs. One" debate more so than a comparison between two similarly performing Samsung phones.
[Galaxy S 4 General] jlevy73:
Completely agree. I have the I9500 and couldn't be happier and I am very picky with devices.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Hunt3r.j2:
Dude, what are you smoking? The Snapdragon 600 architecture is at best 1.5 years old if you count Krait v2, and only six or so months old if you only consider Krait v3.

So far, the only real advantage the Exynos 5 Octa promised was better battery life. The faster performance makes exactly zero difference. The fact that it falls short of the S600's battery life means that the whole point is moot.
