[Galaxy S 4 General] 189cutter:
Exactly! I mean i love minimal but wouldnt it destroy android? I feel as if customizations will be lower than before. I feel as though android should stick with the 4.0.4 feel. Even when kitkat some ppl werent happy because of the color change. Minor things is what makes the biggest impacts. Still it would b nice for a ui change :)

Yh knox maybe a problem. A big one.

Can't you do anything for us with the porting? Now some people who could be working on this? :D
[Galaxy S 4 General] :
I don't have the device anymore (ATM) I got a teared down version with no screen lying around lol.

And the working version is borrowed out,

Same with my G3 (which now seems to have a broken screen)

So I go with a desire c "with broken screen" but its a do nocare if broken device

Better build from source but then I have to sync repo for this device as well

Already tried on note 10.1 to build : no go

HTC desire c : no go

My build station (OS X) sucks so I've installed xubuntu instead :)

I suck at base (ROM porting) its quite hard I never actually got a ROM booted myself (except one due to very similar h/w)
[Galaxy S 4 General] tkruijer:
That's pretty clear. Seems like you need your borrowed device back, since you don't have a good phone to use right now.

I heard, we need to make a kernel first, otherwise we will not succeed with porting.

It's sucks that I don't know how to code. Would be awesome to participate in Android Development...
[Galaxy S 4 General] :
not sure how much that needs to be changed in the kernel actually, i know you can use latest android 4.4.4 kernel on Android L to make it boot at least :good:

[Galaxy S 4 General] Arnibarniboy:
Yeah I am also wondering why the s4 still has no Rom that nearly boots android 5.0 :confused:

Seems that there are no developer that are really working on it. Everybody said it will be easier to build a Rom from a S4 GPE Lollipop dump, but I think it will take a long time until google release their update to the GPE Smartphones :(

So when nobody wants to make a Rom from Source we have to wait a looooong time...

Why sammymobile do not release this rom.

We all know the risk of puting alpha/beta rom on our device so i really do not see the problem.

They claim it to be too unstable (wifi no work) thats their reason said in vid

However I don't think that's the only reason. WiFi could be fixed easy
[Galaxy S 4 General] Joeyxc:
Its legal issues like how YouTubers get stuff early to show off. But they aren't allowed to actually release it is what I've heard. And that a lot of people at sammobile work for samsung
[Galaxy S 4 General] Diazz72:
1. Like you said it could be fixed, 2. There are people that are willing to test it ( With and with out wifi/stability ETC...)

1. If is illegally obtained it would already bean taken down by youtube., 2. Knowing Samsung i do not think they would give UnFinish software for preview.

If something like that ever happen it will be public beta ( Like OEM Android L was ).

So i think its fake.
[Galaxy S 4 General] oMaRcO:
Check the video preview again, wifi is working. Right?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Joeyxc:
Its not fake... If you knew anything about sammobile they get the firmwares because Samsung has a deal with them that they can get people hyped and excited but can't release it. They accept this promise because a lot of them currently or used to work for Samsung
[Galaxy S 4 General] Jeshter2000:
Well ok!

Now it is our turn,

1) We do not work for Samsung in any way nor are we affiliated with them.

2) We changed our strategy regarding leaking Firmware. Why ?? Because we used to get Emails of bricked phones and we want nothing to do with that anymore.

3) And about our download system, we think it is fairly crazy that we delivered so much to this community and now our download links are being blocked here on XDA even though we have a free download option where the speed is great.

Kind Regards Martin. R SamMobile
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gboss01:
Thanks for your feedback.

May I ask, of you receive a stable fully functioning leak will Sammobile make it available for download?

If users brick their own device them is their fault as they are aware it's a leak.

In my experience it's very hard to hard brick the s4 ie. it's not hard to recover back to stock using Odin and the latest firmware.

I understand this might not be possible if you upgrade to Lollipop as you can't downgrade back to KitKat.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Jeshter2000:
We made a decision here at SamMobile to not release any leaked builds anymore. But we wanted to give you guys a taste of what's about to come so we opted to do it like this...

What you say is true that it is their own fault when they brick their phones, but the fact remains the ROM comes from our site. When they go to repair their phones they say I downloaded it from SamMobile and than our name is damaged.

And this is something we want to prevent, there are a lot more people downloading at our site then only tech geeks. And a reminder all Firmware in our Database are official.

Kind Regards Martin
[Galaxy S 4 General] hare89:
Martin is there any leak that u have for i9505 variant :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] Jeshter2000:
Hey man, If they are working on the I9500 they are certainly busy building the 05 as well....
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gboss01:
I respect your decision to keep the Sammobile name clean.

Do you perhaps have any insight as to when Samsung might be releasing their Lollipop build to the public?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Jeshter2000:
We think december...
[Galaxy S 4 General] :
Well they obv didn't read it correctly sad to see u not leaking things hope that changes

The provided firmware by Sammob is as u always say stable enough to release. How they brick their device is another question but it isn't caused by the leak firmware.

What they could have done is trying to flash it for I9500 instead for I9505 etc.

Also u always need too blame someone else that's a thumb rule!

Its never you (the user) that causes it

Hi Martin

maybe you should give leaked build only for developers if they request it :D

I'm using the unofficial cm12 from antares for about 2 weeks now. Since the 23. build it's working absolutely perfect. The only thing not working now is nfc and the homebutton wakeup (should be fixed with todays build). Even my battery life is way better than on any kitkat rom (if not using wifi too often, because of the battery drain bug). Beside of that, I would never ever want to switch back to kitkat. lollipop is so damn fast and smooth <3

And the animations are just pure eyecandy ^^

do you mean by this knox is now a software that doesn't require bootloader checks to see if the device has been tampered with? i dont know what it means in terms of reverse engineering knox so we can rid of the knox at bootloader level. no more yellow and red messages on boot screen
[Galaxy S 4 General] Skipjacks:
Knox is secure software for email and other business applications. It works with the knox flag in the bootloader to verify that the phone hasn't been tampered with, thus ensuring there isn't root level access that could compromise the knox apps.

[Galaxy S 4 General] :
Lol lollipop ain't that bad. If samsung leaves the 5.0 update for s4 it's however their chose sure it wasn't that good and missed much that they promised trey rolled out a half baked promise.

It's one way good in other way bad.

S4 will get latest android 5.1 when it's currently latest.

And not stop at 5.0

Bad thing is that 5.0 mostly affected nexus devices in those claims. Not any other devices.

Most thing that was bad was that stock apps were outdated and not materialized sure there was flaws and bugs for their devices as well but this leak doesn't have much flaws.

Why?

The more you work on it and fix these issues it will be good

However I wouldn't be surprised if samsung did this.

Remember 4.3 they skipped it when it was almost done.

Just wait for a known source to claim if it's true or not.
