Hi all,
Just received notification from Samsung that the SGS3 will NOT be getting any features like the Note 2 has ie. Multi Window, Popup Note or Idea sketch...Shame as they look awesome hope someone can PORT the apps or the Note 2 ROM
Well, I think it shouldn't be that hard to port a Note 2-ROM to the SGS 3, as they're based on nearly the same specs... Would be nice to see some of those features in a custom ROM though
There are already ROMs with the Note 2 gallery and camera, for example.

indeed but they are problematic for some people, i'd much prefer to see a full ROM port which cant be that difficult as hardware is pretty much identical, although there could be ram issues.
None of features sound that ground breaking. I will stick to the stock ROM + root. Thanks.

Well this is obvious they have to make it different you can't expect to get every new feature that they release in they're new flagships

What exactly is it that you want to get? The note has a separate sensor on the screen for he stylus so you would get any short cuts or quick notes.
Anything else software related should be available to port.

Sooner or later we will all switch to CyanogenMod when Samsung stops updating our phones and newer Android versions released.
When you feature gets ported people say it's awesome, when it dosent people say it's not that good. :banghead:

Lol, why would they give you the Note's features on an S3? what's the point of a note then? xD
Cmon, you bought a phone and agreed to have what it had at that point of time, heck samsung doesn't even have to update it (the box had 4.0.4 and you agreed to that.
So be happy and stop complaining.
lets not question the validity of peoples need / want for these features, that's just stupid.
I also want Note 2 features and I have a solution...

I seem to have this feeling that we're not getting these features due to the lack of RAM (1GB vs 2GB).
IMHO Samsung should have really put 2GB into the GT-I9300...
Hopefully later revisions of the GT-I9300 will have 2GB of RAM. Fat chance but one can wish.

Well that depends on how soon it is. Like imagine iPhone 6 is coming out tmr. Will you buy the iPhone 5 now?
Samsung will normally just update 2 Android versions and the update is gone. That is about a year left for Key Lime Pie update I guess. So in the end I really don't mind not having Note 2 features. Plus I don't trust Samsung software features. Samsung is a hardware not a software company.

From SamMobile.com:
"Samsung has announced that both the Galaxy S and the Galaxy Tab can handle the upgrade to Android 4.0 when looking purely at speed of the device.
However the upgrade will not arrive on these devices simply because certain hardware features will not function.
The quantity of RAM and ROM in this is a big factor.
Some of the Touhwizz functions Samsung uses will not work when combined with Android 4.0 and one of these devices."

yup.. i'm running an early alpha of a CM9 based ICS on my Tab and it runs fine for not having hardware acceleration etc. So I know the same applies for the Epic. Sad that Samsuck just doesn't feel like putting the effort into supporting their devices.. Oh well, hooray capitalism! =P
So, here is their source for the story:
http://www.samsungtomorrow.com/2043
It's in Korean, and reading it through google translate of babelfish is good for a chuckle.
As I interpret it, they say that the Nexus S works because it requires no carrier customization , Touchwiz or region specific features.
Also, from the babel fish translation:
"The soluble memory dosage is insufficient and will provide a satisfied use environment
There is not a possibility.
This considers the hardware evening sunlight, use environment of optimum to the customers provision
Description below being a selection which is inevitable for to understand, wishes."
I think that may mean the phone is near end of life (hardware evening sunlight)
and customers wouldn't like how ICS runs on this hardware anyway.
Oh well, we'll see how CM9 runs.

Maybe, if there is an ICS port in the next 6 months that's smooth and fully functional I'd go there. But I'm moving on to LTE asap.
Just means no "official" ICS, I'm sure devs will have something for it. I would imagine that most of the people that know what they're missing will be on to new phones by then anyway.
Hopefully they can pull off cm9 for the gs series.

This is just Samsung being downright LAZY. Heck the Nexus S is getting ICS from them right? And that is most definitely a Galaxy S phone. They just don't want to be bothered to support the Galaxy S line as a whole anymore clearly.
If we didn't have to worry about touchwiz... it would be here by now... why do we need it when the UI of ICS is far superior. At the very least release the driver source files so that devs can do it for you... Samsung needs to be more open to developers in that regard.

Keep in mind that this isn't just Samsung's pickiness about having their TW branding. This is also a product of carrier demands. Carriers do NOT like (for the most part) unbranded, undifferentiated phones, and they especially don't like phones that aren't preloaded with software that represents services they provide.
Frankly, I was always convinced that arrangements such as VZN's with the NFL required them to have the app on all relevant phones. The NFL is anal like that.
IOW, it's a LOT of different factors coming together keeping ICS off of Galaxy S phones, many of which are problems with how the smartphone industry itself has come to work, and targeting one player while ignoring the bigger picture--though it sure makes life easier for journalists and bloggers--cheapens the whole conversation.
I really doubt it will comes true... but worth of dreaming....
I hope so :laugh:

Nope, sadly. I'd like to keep this tab for awhile longer and it would be nice if Samsung showed up Apple and keeps updating it (and other recent Galaxy devices) for at least one more version. But, nah. Maybe it will be easier for someone to port 4.1 when the 4.0 source eventually gets out?
But if not...**** it, who cares. A few interface tweaks and some nice features, but the 7.7 will still be highly usable with ICS, I would say.
Theoretically the binary blob drivers that come with ICS source should be able to be used in JB builds? I'm guessing
The main obstacle in current ICS dev is lack of ICS drivers esp as they are closed sammy blobs

Unless of course he is traveling salesman. Travel with Nexus 7 is somewhat restricted to about 100 meters.
I see no technical reason why the 7.7 should not be able to run JB unless JB needs 2Gb of memory.

I was thinking the same thing. And hoping it is indeed the case.
JB for the Note II has been out for a while now. Note II specs are remarkably similar to SGN10.1 specs. JB with Note II multitasking competes well with W8. The current configuration not so much.
So, open letter to Samsung. Time to push out the JB OTA now! You are going to start losing SGN10.1 users to W8 devices. Get your act together and OTA us dammit. This is a new device. We should NOT be made to wait like this. Pisses us off and just bad business for you.
And if you are delaying us just so your W8 devices can get a foothold you are going to have some unhappy early adopters on your hands.
Get it done.

Yes, it's always a good idea to try to put pressure on a company to release software they don't think is ready. I mean, we all know they develop things and just wait and wait for no reason before releasing.

I wouldn't expect JB out anytime soon, with 4.2 out last night Samsung probably has to start with the OS base all over again but if they had gotten to the apps then at least those are a quick copy paste but with less devs working on the S3 and Note 2 version as it is practically out we will probably see the update coming through in December late November unless they give us 4.1 and we wait for 4.2.

Because they want you to use their cloud storage and a fixed battery keeps the unit cost down. It's amazing that they've managed to produce the hardware for the price, but I still chose the S3 as I couldn't live with being tethered to a wall plug for 4 hours a day.
Catching myself on flashing Cyanogen after every samsung rom release - it's just clean and light comparing to the last one , i then thought, if i love pure G more than a blup-blup cartoonish mothefuker even with cool milti window which i used 4-5 times to put iScumbags in depression and smart rotation which is a super must feature. However , i just enjoy a lot more when using aosp , eventhough S3 is a great device

It seems that there is some confusion on weather the Note 2 was mentioned as part of the handsets receiving the 4.3 upgrade this October.
The only phones mentioned were the S3 and S4. There was no other device mentioned.
Most online news sites have reported this. Sources :

We will most likely get the upgrade. This is not a Samsung hate thread. I just wanna clear up the fact that the only devices that are covered by the update announcement are the S3 and S4. Samsung is most likely just giving the Note 3 more exclusive time with 4.3 and delaying our upgrades after the sales of their new phablet take off.

What Engadget reported is not true. Here you go with the official demo by samsung. You can see that Note 2 is getting the 4.3 version by october this year.

He says the S3 and Note 2 will receive updates in October. Fair enough he doesn't actually mention android 4.3, but as far as I'm aware, the compatibility with galaxy gear requires Bluetooth 4.0 which is enabled through android 4.3? Not so sure about that last bit so please do correct me of I'm mistaken.
I hope we get the new features of the note 3, I quite fancy the look of the new s note and air command.

Hey I'm glad I read this post confirming N2 is due an update Oct '13. I had my doubts because other threads said N2 update was not mentioned at the unpacking.
I follow your reasoning that the update will likely be 4.3. Otherwise connectivity with the Gear will not be possible. It's been unequivocally stated that 4.3 bluetooth is required - where else would the capabilitycome from? Sammy want us to buy the Gear. It all ties in with rumors Sammy planned skipping 4.2 for 4.3

Yeah, my thoughts exactly. Usually I'd think they would wait a couple more months to let the note 3 sales ride out before updating the note 2, but in the interest of getting the gear out there, they might just push it early.
I won't be buying a gear as its not for me, but if we get an early 4.3 update with the new note 3 features because of it, then I'm so very glad it's coming out!!
It's sucks
A year after the Note 2 was release and Samsung did not updated Note 2
that sucks, many other Devices had the 4.2.2 and 4.3 and im in 4.1.2
Wifi drains my standby battery like there's no tomorrow. No such problem on my Nexus 4 (or any HTC One S).
I sincerely hope 4.3 sorts this problem out.
. No it will get it and if you want them now use Custom rims

I do, a ROM that doesn't utilize the Spen fully on my Note doesn't stick around my phone for long. what's the point of not using it if it's there? Might as well buy a Sammy Mega then:silly:

He says the S3 and Note 2 will receive updates in October. Fair enough he doesn't actually mention android 4.3, but as far as I'm aware, the compatibility with galaxy gear requires Bluetooth 4.0 which is enabled through android 4.3? Not so sure about that last bit so please do correct me of I'm mistaken.
I hope we get the new features of the note 3, I quite fancy the look of the new s note and air command.

I could not understand anything he said :S
when its ready, it will come..making a hundred of thread like this wont make it come faster, just wasting your time, why dont u enjoy 4.1.2 until 4.3 come out, so u will be happy, and others happy too..

I dont believe the spen keyboard works which I use a lot and a dont
think directory binds works yet. Battery live isnt as good also.

Plus stock camera and samsung drivers are far beyond any other camera app in the market, CM and AOSP cameras are just pathetic and correct me if I'm wrong but even if S-PEN works in non-samsung based Roms, it doesn't detect the pressure of it.
So I'm still waiting for the update, then the great devs of this forum can do the magic.
