[Galaxy S III General] dakoookie:
How big of a mistake can they even make? There are loads of people that got the GS3 and I don't think not supporting their phones will make them buy more of their stuff. They gave a bit more than half a year of support for their flagship phone and skipped every update after 4.1.2. Way to go Samsung!

Never Samsung!
[Galaxy S III General] hasdroid:
Our phone had been updated from ics to 4.1 then 4.3 and the 18 months is gone away and our phone is very old for now, if you need to "KitKat" please buy another device or install custom roms...

HTC one plus never get KitKat.

Xperia s also have only 4.1

And many devices like s3 from another companies aren't got KitKat...
[Galaxy S III General] davidroid03:
Im sick of this. I will have NOTE 3 any moment now. But I believe N9005 will also get some sh*t problem in future updates. Right now my S3 is dreaming of running in 4.4, but that is only a nightmare. Lot of people specially techie people will learn from you Samsung sh*t!

Actually,no.

I'm on archidroid now,and everything works as it should. Maybe it's not as responsive as CM,but at least it's smooth. I have that awesome camera,sound and stability,and that's better than having only fast AOSP and nothing else.

Hello. Is anyone able to run any 4.4.x custom ROM on Galaxy S III and Good for Enterprise and pass compliance check? So without root.

I've downloaded new Cyanogenmod, installedit but I've failed compliance check.

Of course only Custom CWM recovery was installed too, but no root.

I would like to get rid of Samsung bloatware and increase speed and battery life of my corporate phone.
[Galaxy S III General] AssassinGEO:
It's possible,of course. You better go ahead and research more.

Btw,if you care about the camera and other samsung features,then you better to install Custom Touchwiz-based ROM and speed it up yourself,but if you just want some speeds and nothing else,then AOSP is for you.
[Galaxy S III General] tmac31:
can you write the bugs i realy dont see any bug i just wonder but please dont write delay on contacts and launcher redraw or laggy gallery which present on s5 too. 4.3 isnt worse than anyother stock firmware realesed by samsung for s3 and its best on multitasking with zram active as stock.

4.3 isnt perfect but samsung didnt ever published a perfect rom for their any phone including note 3 and s5.

May be is time to push Samsung to release drivers source code from our i9300, and help the comunity to make its own kit kat with full suport

This can be good. Push Samsung to release driver source. The least they can do for I9300 since they are geniuses being unable to run 4.4 in our devices.

“In order to facilitate an effective upgrade on the Google platform, various hardware performances such as the memory (RAM, ROM, etc.), multi-tasking capabilities, and display must meet certain technical expectations. The Galaxy S3 and S3 mini 3G versions come equipped with 1GB RAM, which does not allow them to effectively support the platform upgrade. As a result of the Galaxy S3 and S3 mini 3G versions’ hardware limitation, they cannot effectively support the platform upgrade while continuing to provide the best consumer experience. Samsung has decided not to roll-out the KitKat upgrade to Galaxy S3 and S3 mini 3G versions, and the KitKat upgrade will be available to the Galaxy S3 LTE version as the device’s 2GB RAM is enough to support the platform upgrade.” – Samsung Mobile UK

Ya its from samsung UK .....just couldnt agree that our s3 couldnt meet kitkat technical expectations .:mad:

Samsung is not actually at fault

They just follow google guidelines.

Google didnt update their galaxy nexus to kitkat even though it had 1gb ram a fast dual core processor.

Google said that kitkat can run on 512mb ram but they didnt made it run on their own nexus phone.

So why samsung will update

Moreover samsung want you all to buy their new phones .

Nah. It's just Samsung with a convenient excuse. Probably KK wouldn't work any worst than 4.3 unless Samsung wanted to bloat it even more and was too lazy to optimize it for S3. I might be wrong obviously, this just my opinion. Samsung need to draw the line somewhere, while I understand that this is a good point for them to drop support it's little disappointing that they have not provide longer support for thier flagship device.

How is Samsung forcing you to do anything? Does your phone still make and receive calls, SMS? Can you still run almost all andriod apps? Take pictures and videos? Really some people think that is the end of the world that there beloved phone is not getting KK. Get a life!
[Galaxy S III General] myshakugan:
Lol guys chill. This was bound to happen someday. Any business tycoon like samsung would want to sell their new devices no matter how. And for Samsung, the method was by discontinuing support for galaxy s3 i9300.

What's saddening is that samsung could have gone an extra mile and do something extra for their best flagship device (my opinion). That way they could have earned so many customer's supports and respect.

Although everybody think that : Oh oh oh **** ... no more updates .. **** ..... but in my opinion I think Samsung will make a surprise ... saying that the s3 got KK ...

hey do you think is major update 4.3 ? 4.3 is full of bugs. BATTERY DRAINING , SCREEN WAKE UP PROBLEM , FREEZINGS , LAGS , BAD RAM CONTROLLING , even battery filling time is extented 2 hours to 5 hours. SAMSUNG YOU ARE CRAP !!
[Galaxy S III General] SnowPluralism:
Not true.

I have Note 3 Launcher and Weather Widget along side with its keyboard and it has minimal ram difference.

And u can thank to not have knox!

[Galaxy S III General] Havoc-X:
I wasnt referring to the RAM, i know for a fact that the S3 should be able to handle Samsung KitKat because another confirmed KitKat device has 1GB ram (Galaxy Grand if I'm not mistaken). I was saying they knew they weren't going to give the i9300 KitKat, hence the very minimal 4.3 update. Also the initial release for 4.3 was a joke, Samsung clearly decided to screw the i9300.

This might work well for the smartphone world though. Lets hope it convinces most of us to move away from Samsung, because really, after playing with the HTC One and the LG G2, i just dont get the Samsung hype. Its amazing how Samsung is the most popular, have yet to come across a Samsung that does not lag.

Sadly, disappointment is an all-too-familiar feeling for S3 owners. Despite selling astonomical amounts of the handset globally (50 million by March 2013 alone), and making vast profits, they have continually insulted their userbase with long delays for shoddy updates that were obviously rushed and not fit for purpose when finally released. There are plenty of competitors out there in the market looking to sell phones and a lot of consumers fed up of being treated with such contempt.

The source for all news pointing there will be no KK update for the i9300 is this site:

Tried that rom (it's based on Slimkat tried also and that one) and camera in 1080 lags like hell... 720p works butter smooth.

(tried with all variants of patched camera lib - no go...)

can you upload for us one video in 1080 to se your fps and bandwidth... and that no lag footage.
[Galaxy S III General] Ricky Divjakovski:
i think you mean higher bitrate..
[Galaxy S III General] nomaj:
Yes.. but i think that we will don't get answer here ;) I'm on thins problem almost 3days testing all combinations ... and there is common camera problem CM OMNI AOSP roms - all of them have same problem

in 1080 you can record with 25fps medium bit-rate ( laggy) or 30 fps if you switch to MPG4 and low bit-rate (around 6). In both cases recorded videos are laggy and jerky.

VIdeo gets a bit better if you in your kernel set governor to performance... but still not like 1080 on Samy roms.
[Galaxy S III General] Ricky Divjakovski:
yeah AOSP seems to lack alot of that during recording and focals focus is good other then the picture still turns out ****... im looking to port stock camera to AOSP soon!
[Galaxy S III General] nomaj:
Look i will be first to donate some money for that! and you will be my hero! =)

I think that main problem for people to cross to AOSP is camera on i9300. That would be awesome news!
[Galaxy S III General] Ricky Divjakovski:
ahh!its not about the money! its about helping other people..

and yeah ive gotta test a new project and tommorow morning ill be getting to it! should only take about 1 hour or two..
[Galaxy S III General] nomaj:
Great! we need more developers like you in days that come (No KK support for samy) There will be Note2 roms that i hope can be ported to ours S3 ;)
