[Q] google edition rom for our phone - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

Is anyone working on a Google edition port for our phone? Just curious. Sorry if someone else posted already but I can't find a thread for this subject.

I'd think the official would be a lot smoother cm can be a bit laggy and unrealiable

OK nm the phone is officially out!

I am currently running AOKP on my M919 but would definitely like to compare it to the 'Official' google experience rom.

id rather have the real google edition instead of CM and other community built roms because they always glitch and lag at some point, ive been running cm since cm7 ive tried all and they were never perfect i want to try a real google experience :good:

Everyone does, matter of getting someone to port it ^.^

Well someone will I'm sure of that.

I have been wondering if, when you buy the Google edition phone, would you be able to flash a tw rom on it?

its got to be possible, i did some research and actually our phone is the closest to the model phone that the GE s4 uses. my thoughts are that we might actually get a port first. i have a feeling the rom itself will boot on our phones. we just need to flash a radio. the kernal should work... the tmobile phone is actually the best of all the usa variants to have and usually tmobile variants hold the most value when selling because they are closest to international versions and have the most bands. i think we might be in luck here.

Yes.. Geeks

I'll just keep mine or upgrade to the 32GB TMO version when it comes out. I'm guessing its the US Snapdragon version (compatible w/ AT&T & TMO) & we should be able to install it on ours w/o any issues. I'm all guessing here.
Definitely wanting to sale my note 2 for that.

That's what I believe it is too.
Why would anyone switch their gs4s to that? Can't aosp just be cooked up from that version? It'll deff be much more bug free then aosp at this point

or you could just install cm10.1 and BOOM you already have stock android experience + great customization
Im just gonna wait to see if there is a rom coming out to install

I wonder now that there is a stock android build coming will cm for s4 be better since they will have the code specifically for this phone?
What's the advantages of this???
Now we got are devices fresh in hand and bam. They... release S4 stock.
Hey we got a new version for you buy again.:thumbdown::thumbdown::thumbdown::thumbdown:

You shouldn't feel bad about your purchase. I'm quite happy with mine so far (except the overheating issue lately).
I don't have the AOSP version yet, so I can't really speak of the features that are/aren't going to be there.
I'm guessing if they make it true stock Android, there will be no Samsung bloat at all.
So it's basically a much more powerful version than any Nexus phone will ever be,
and as such the price is quite high. Personally, I would not consider it at that price.
I'm happy with my T-Mo, and with a few customization here or there, I can always get stock.
This is really geared toward the hard-core Android fans/developers. You can't doubt the S4 has the best internal hardware
of any phone out there, and there lies possibilities.
I also heard the news from google I/O. Does this mean that this version of the S4 will be as open as a nexus and easy for developers to make their custom ROMs for it?

Sony basically did the same thing with the ZR, took complaints and made a new phone out of it
Just purchased a 600$ Ip57 phone? Well there's IP58 now! (Waterproof not resistant)
It's good to have options, but honestly most people that buy pure vanilla Android are experienced users. Most will have no clue rather it's Vanilla or not.
So there in lies the questions. Why put this out after and most that come here that have an s4 already hacked it to death no? So I don't see the point of the users here who want to upgrade to this when you just put a vanilla type ROM on it.

CM only has bugs on non aosp devices. Its just as stable as stock on my galaxy nexus. Having an aosp s4 will allow all the snapdragon s4's to have stable aosp.

Not true. my nexus 4 gets bugs every once in a while.
If the hardware is identical to the tmoble version then you should just be able to flash the image through Odin right? Seems kind of like the galaxy nexus where you flash takju from yakju or whatever and boom, you are getting the Google play version of updates, wallet functionality etc. If anything it says Samsung has opened their flagship to aosp right?
Even if you think $650 is too much this means that potentially, Samsung will get touch wiz updates to new versions faster as there will be nexus level compatibility with each new android update. I'm not saying immediate but they will have an inside track based on the fact that Google will actively update their device through AOSP for at least 2 years.

CM will always have bugs due to the way they change the Android coding. Where it is stable and great work people should never look for a bug free OS

[Q] ROM question

The Google announcement of a Google version of the S4 made me start wondering about the S3. Of all the wonderful ROMS for the S3, which one(s) are closest to a pure android experience?
Any of the ROMs running the actual Google software.

Thanks for the reply. After looking it over, I guess I'll stay with my current setup. Courtesy of Titantium Backup I've removed a lot of the bloat and the phone works fine for the way I use it. The only thing that doesn't work for me is syncing to Google Calendar, although it syncs just fine from Google Calendar to the phone. I guess I removed one too many things.

No 4.2.2 update

It looks like our phone, along with the other galaxy s2 lineup will not receive the official 4.2.2 update.

Old news. Would not be surprised if the international Exynos SII gets the update, but Qualcomm does not support 4.2 on our aged S3 chipset.

I have been using 4.3 ROMs for a few days now with no issue. Is there anything in particular that doesn't work that I'm unaware of?

If they "didn't work" the devs would take them down or not put them up in the first place. Are there some bugs here and there? Yes. Read the threads for those.

Of course. I was just wondering if there were any kernel limitations or major bugs that were not ROM specific, or just in CM10.2.
I am not waiting for 4.2.2 tw. The only thing better about tw is the camera app, but it is a phone so it not like we are getting get pics anyway. Running carbon 4.3, very stable and smooth.

I'm curious how it is that we have to many custom 4.2.2 rom for the Hercules, yet the graphics driver is not supported?? Did Cyanogen and other rom developers somehow find a way to port the old Qualcomm drivers to other versions of android? Or are we just using the previous 4.1.2 drivers somehow. Either way the statement that the update is somehow incompatible with our device is purely garbage. Truth be told, it is simply a way to sell more devices, at least it is for those who are not willing to flash custom ROMs. For the rest of us there is 4.3 on a device that began as a gingerbread device, which is awesome. Now bring on the KitKat, because I'm sure our device can rock some 4.4 just as well.

Not a dev so these questions are over my head, but I am curious about the answers as well. And if they Key lime pie (kitkat) rumors are true about it being less spec hungry then it might just be the best running version of Android to grace our phones.

Google Play Edition rom?

I searched online and found this rom meant for Sprint GS4 and was wondering if it could ported. I am not familiar with porting or if its even possible even though its coming from a CDMA phone.
This is the link from the webpage.
And this is the link for the rom.
Thanks in advance.
It's being worked on is all I will say.
But just an fyi, GPE for the HTC One and S4 boils down to more or less an AOSP themed stock rom

Sch-i535 is a Verizon model and is most certainly not the i9300
When someone asks what VERSION of a device you have they most certainly do not mean what version of Android is running on it. Just common sense dude
