[Q] Alternatives? (CyanogenMod dropping Exynos support)

So, I was all excited to get a Note 2, but then I heard about CyanogenMod being unlikely to support new Exynos devices: http://codeworkx.de/wordpress/
So with that in mind... does anyone have a competing phablet to suggest?

Nothing going on in the stickied thread for whose gonna develop for it. Any ideas?

That seems awfully silly to drop such an anticipated world wide device. Maybe he can't meat the demand of both SG3, and Note 2?

We are still waiting for us release date to even be announced so some devs may not even be that worried about notifying me until they get to see the device hands on.

You do know that codeworkx isn't the only developer for CyanogenMod or for Samsung devices. Him dropping support for Exynos devices isn't the end of the world. So what if he left, that's his personal choice & I understand why & completely support him but not everyone shares his views of dropping support for Exynos devices because devices like the S & Note series are very popular & its just a matter of time before some developer get his hand on the device & CyanogenMod will be developed for it. This is just needless panic.

The HTC One X5 looks good, but no clue on when it'll come out...
And yes #illidan, I realise that another developer may step up, and I do hope that happens. But from the sounds of things, it's not just codeworkx that is dropping Samsung support:

Not likely to happen. If CM comes to the Note 2, it will only be if a new maintainer steps up.
Most of the current Exynos maintainer team (myself, espenfjo, codeworkx) and others have all decided that our current devices will be our last non-Nexus Exynos devices. I'm not sure about xplodwild, but I have a feeling he's highly unlikely to take up another Haxxinos with the rest of us gone and given his prior experiences with it.
If Samsung changes their attitude towards developers, this might change, but their attitude lately (zero documentation, zero platform source code, a trend towards bootloader locking - Only the Verizon S3 has a locked bootloader now, but Samsung has had the infrastructure in place since the S2 and they are constantly adding more checks) has led to the current Exynos maintainer team deciding that enough is enough. I don't think any of us are going to do anything to make Samsung's Exynos devices more attractive to any particular market segment until they provide assistance (in the form of technical documentation and source code) in return. I don't know about the others, but if they offer me a free device I'll say no - I refuse to participate in a PR stunt like the I9100 donations were.
Pretty much the only way I'll go back is if I see reference platform source that is up to the same standards as CAF and omapzoom, or they actually start providing real documentation and source code for the devices I'm currently working with.

Yes I'm well aware of the entire so called Exynos development team giving up because of Samsung's retarded ways but as of now I believe it's a 50-50 gamble for device support. Maybe a new maintainer steps up to the batting plate or an old one does (highly unlikely). It's basically up to you & seeing as the Note is the only choice for now if your looking for a phablet. I still believe that the device will receive support.

A popular device like the Note II will surely get CM. But a point worth considering is the lack of help being provided by Samsung regarding the Exynos processor. So, in the future , development may slow down or there may be loss of particular functionality due to the lack of code or compatible blobs from Samsung for the Exynos.
Of course, there are many talented devs that gonna work on the Note II, but the Team Hacksung not supporting this is definitely a big blow, as they have shown the awesome work they can do with Samsung devices as well as the fact that they have tremendous experience on Samsung devices.

Hrm, this may not be concerning for the veteran android user,but as I plan(ned?) this to be my first android device, it makes me wonder if I should wait and see if there is support for it. I can't a stock anything, let a lone a phone. And unfortunatly this is the only android device I'm really looking forward to.

I've heard some chit chatter as well, as far as development / support not going to be strong but its not going to sway me from buying this phone.. It's still going to be awesome.. Even if its just stock rooted to get rid of system things you don't need

I have a developer question, what company is actually giving the developers what they want? HTC? I know Motorola hasn't been that developer friendly ( at least on Verizon I know its better on other carriers). Cm10 will be on the note 2. If my Bionic is getting JB cm10 then for sure the Note 2 will

Apparently if has more to do with the processor. The Snapdragon, TI OMAP, NVidia etc are more forthcoming with code for CM. Sammy however is not, since exynos is a proprietary chip (aka apple).

I believe that the Exynos CPU in the Galaxy Note 2 is exactly the same as the CPU in the Galaxy S III, Just higher Clocked. And the International Galaxy S III has Cyanogenmod Already, So fear not it will be a easier port. Correct me if I'm wrong

I would assume so, but not sure. Personally, I won't stray away from a stock base. I want those features touted by Samsung. That's why I'm upgrading.
I'm not sure however, how well CM10 runs on the SGS3...and according to what I've read, its not a very good port.

[Daydreaming] S4 Google Edition port for N2

I know a lot more will be known once the S4 Google Edition is in dev's hands but I was just casually wondering how it would impact the Note 2 development of a stock rom. I don't know the chances of the S4GE using the Exynos 5 chipset but if so hopefully it would help the devs out even more.
As someone who used the CM10.1 nightlies for a while and now switched to CleanRom, I'm just sort of daydreaming what having a Note II Nexus would be like...

Here's your answer

note 10.1 2014 4.4.2 update??

Sorry but when is the update coming? not a single update since november? i can understand the diffuculty of pushing it through carriers but even for the WIFI p600, no update has arrived. I wonder if it will even arrive before the summer.

No one knows. We will have to wait till Samsung rolls out a testfirmware or a leak.

Just don't ask for ETA.T_T. Samsuck.

Its so frustrating because all the new tablets have 4.4.2 and they have identical specs asides from screen size and a multitasking button. I have been a long time apple user and "converted" to android about 9 months ago. I had an iphone then got the htc one then got the Note 3. I traded my ipad for the note 2014. I love android but I feel like the notion I am getting from android manufacturers is if you want the latest upgrade youre going to have to buy the newest device. Sorry for the rant.

With Samsung you'll need some patience.
Actually they are rolling this update out to a fair amount of their products, we are in line.....

Probably at the end of the line.
Not too big a deal imo, but the performance increase in KitKat would be sweet to have.

Like Khairy said the Galaxy Tab Pro. 10.1 is identical except for the 1 gig of ram and the S-pen. It can't be that difficult to get our Kitkat update out.
Sent from my GT-P5210 using xda app-developers app

Samsung is slow with updates. I just got 4.4.2 on my S4 if you want OS updates faster you have to get a Nexus device.
It's just the way it is I can't wait for KitKat on my Note 10.1 I like it on the S4.

I only got jelly bean on my Note 2 the other day...so don't hold your breath

At the very least fix the lag on a lot of the animations, I feel like samsung is trying to get me to buy a pro series tablet. I guess 600 isn't pro enough.

I just hope it doesn't mess with my SD card access, otherwise I shall wait.
My note is just as I like it at the moment.

Seriously why do people keep asking when it's coming? That's not gonna change anything and we know just as much as you. Google it or something. Be patient people! You'll get it when you get it!

You do realize that P600 is also an exynos device, with a lollipop upgrade no less. If anything it's the Qualcomm that are left behind in note tablets (12.2 and 10.1) (same is true for galaxy alpha btw, Qualcomm version does not even have root)

Compare the problems of locked bootloaders in some qualcomm devices with exynos lack of development is funny.
Exynos is a dying processor.
P600 = p601 plus phone side. Just this? Then why no development?

No AOSP Roms?

Is it just me, but nobody... Not even CyanogenMod have Roms for the S6 Edge?
Sent from my SM-G925T using Tapatalk

Nobody, unless you want international roms from the international thread.
This is not your average android.
Pp.

well S6 or s6 edge is using 64 bit chip + their CPU was made by the Samsung, and there is very limited resource. I remember there is a guy attempt to make a CM room but he stop.

I did not know. Figure it wouldn't be any different since they are all just built off of the actual android releases by Google

It has a lot to do with the chipset in the device. Most Qualcomm devices get AOSP roms pretty quick because Qualcomm releases their source codes, but this is an Exynos device, and Samsung is bad at releasing source codes unfortunately. I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you.

Glad my other Exynos device has no issue. I'd die if that beautiful work of art had to stick to TW
