Canada getting exynos? Noooooooo - Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion

Son of a.... http://mobilesyrup.com/2016/02/23/samsung-canada-exynos-8890-s7/
Time to cancel my preorder

Why is that an issue for you?
The Exynos is often faster than the Snapdragon of the same generation, and the first few initial tests seem to confirm it is the case once again.

Maybe because the Exynos is closed source? I'm just guessing.

That is exactly why, odd's of getting aosp roms is slim to none.
The only other option is ordering the tmobile version from the states.
On the other hand maybe touchwiz won't be so bad, if twrp/root/xposed is available it should be good enough... right?

It does suck that we dont get the s820. Plus i think the snapdragon has a better gpu but i could be wrong. Chances of getting any aosp roms on exynos are way too slim and even if its possible theyre way too buggy to be a daily driver.

No, simply too big for me to fully use single handily.

supposedly the exynos has a better sound chip it's the Wolfson DAC I read on another forum

NFC enabled on the AT&T version.
And you can count on a ton of bloat ware (easily fixed though). I'm sticking with my unlocked white euro sgs2... I LOVE the home button and a bumped processor isn't good enough for me to give it up... plus its cool to have the version others don't! ;-)

HSUPA speeds are likely crippled, too.
And yeah, the T-Mobile version will have the best theoretical download speeds, but the worst performance, especially graphics.
It'll also use its very own totally-unique-won't-work-with-anything else firmware...it's a one-off, almost an orphan, so don't expect much community support for it.
hehe, bought the UK version or "unlocked" like new for $450.... thanks foe the replies guys, BTW the CPU is 1.2 so it's the same speed, no speed bump..
Is there a dump of the 4G ROM yet?
It would be nice to have a true US English dialer for example that doesn't say 'Favourites', etc.
Sprint version is the best with the bigger screen and LED indicator
TMobile users are getting the short end of the stick with the Qualcomm processor
Ughhh called my local att retail store and I quote it was supposed to launch, but its been delayed end quote. Dialed 611 the rep could only point me to the att site to sign up for email notification when it's available, which I have done weeks ago. Any one know why the delay?
I'm gonna go ballistic if this is apples doing.

That looks nice without the physical button. I presume you only need to use the Vol Down + Power to boot in Download mode, the same way you do it in Galaxy Tab.

Just heard from an att sales representative, take it with a grain of salt, but he said sprint gets it exclusive for a month.

Speak for yourself on the screen. 4.5" is too big for me. That's why I have a tablet. As for the LED, my last two devices haven't had it so I'm kind of used to it being gone. Certainly not a deal breaker either way.

I'd actually say that the biggest advantage the Sprint version has is the bigger battery (1800mAh). Battery life with huge screens is my #1 concern. Also is using NoLED app for the Att version really that bad?

Completely agree
It's a simple matter to change the device name and model number, and overclock it to the desired frequency. After that, modify the files of the score data, and voilĂ , we have the Galaxy s4, or really any device you want

Anyways, if that's real, not a bad benchmark! Do you imagine what we can do overcloking a 1.9GHz CPU? That would be a f***ing burning S4... Unless they put a fan in the case

Its soo fake its unbeleivable, reasons:
1. S4 will probably have 4g as standard so there is no need for the i9505
2. benchmark is lower than a note 2
3. 4.2.1 WTF!
Anyway exynos 5 will be beast and is pointless if the processor is around the same performance of note 2.
also you think samsung hasnt got their own way of benchmarking the phone?
they know power is important in this years flagship and they are not likely to be worse than what qualcomm has to give.
So you think before you post, this is faked.

Keep in mind that exynos 5 will be a beast, but mostly in the energy efficiency area. As the technical from Samsung explained, all 8 cores will NEVER run in the same time, it will be basically a quad-core running an ARM7 processor base in low demanding tasks and an ARM15 processor base when at full power.
Still, scores are very low anyway and i assume that if someone tried to "fool us", has set an 1.9ghz value considering that it will have an Snapdragon processor, as Samsung never released a running freq for their exynos.
100% fake, some random overclocked phone with ro.product.model=xxx changed to read ro.product.model=GT-I9505. Takes a few seconds to do.
could you please tell me how to modify the screen pixel ?

Are you for real? 4.2.2 just only hit AOSP 2 freaking weeks ago on February 11th.
People need to get over it that this is most probably is the version they'll be releasing. Edit: I'm talking about the Snapdragon version of the phone.
Why would you trust a benchmark ? You get different results each time you start one.
Ignorance is near impossible to prevent but manners are easily controlled. There is no need for such blatant flaming on here and it seems the developers get away with it all the time....
Anyway. Back on topic. If it was real, it doesn't look like it's set to blow any minds. If it's not. Just hang tight and wait...

if u want the best AOSP experience just get a Nexus
Jeez guys calm down. What I think is that samsungs developers are not small scale one-man per device jobs. I beleive that samsung collaborates with other workers to merge aosp and touchwiz using well known GIT. They mihgt be a big team that can accomplish a 4.2.1 to 4.2.2 in a matter of two weeks. Dont forget, our s3 just had a leak that works and I am sure we are not priority at samsung devs. I think they would have an efficient task force that could easily do what you said is crazy quite easily. Plus I am sure that they would atleast merge aosp code 4.2.2 and then continue bugfixing. Btw andreilux, its quite obvious that its fake even if we dont agree on the reasons.

[Q] Which One to Buy ? Dev will support ?

Obviously we are all waiting for the Note 4, yet it's Pricey.
Now comes the hard question.
Which one to buy ? and
Which will the Dev support ? (Future Proofing)
N910C or N910S
Snapdragon over Exynos
We all saw it in the S4 between the 9505 and 9500 so I don't want to get stuck in the same loop.
Please advise at the earliest since all the articles on the Web refer to Chip variants and differences yet no one has a solid answer to which will be supported and would be considered as a real investment. I hear the Exynos is benchmarked with 40K therefore exceeding our favorite Snapdragon chip !?
That makes it even worse to decide
International version is snapdragon if u care about custom stuff go for it.

I think the exynos version(s) this time around may prove to be a bit more popular because the believe (uncertain) that the 5433 will run 64bit (future proofing).

Tough to say, All of the USA market will have snapdragon, as will many other countries. That means there will be a greater percentage of "market share" of the S805 version with a better chance of having dev support on it.

you give me far too much credit, i port recoveries and do minor things. bootloader exploits are beyond my scope of even understanding how many actually work.
The Exynos model should be faster, better on battery, and possibly offer 64-bit down the road. I'm going with that one.

ONE plus 1 or 2 ?

I play lot of games and need good battery. Will use for two three years at least.
These are my basic needs. Please help me decide between these two phones.
Neither, go for Nexus 6P or Note 5.
Had the OPO, liked it but had hardware issues with it (wouldn't hold onto a cellular network long, battery crapped out). OP2 don't have those issues but the third party support is lacking. I saw the Note 5 camera in action today, blows the OP2 camera. Also the OP2 performance sucks, I feel slow downs where the OPO didn't, but I think this is primarily Oxy**** issue, if it was running CM it would be awesome!

I think the performance of the OP2 is really, really good - device also disperses heat pretty well which tames the 810 beast down.
It always depends how you run your device though. I don't enjoy it as much as I'd like out of stock.

Oneplus 2, with modified thermal you can play games without aggressive thermal throttling. SD 810 rumors are exaggerated.
With thermal hotplugged i played real racing 3 for 40m with all cores enabled at stocks min/max freqs and it doesn't throttle.
Sent from my ONE A2005 using Tapatalk
My only hesitation in not just saying "go with the OP2" is the lack of third-party support, as pointed out by @ludester. CyanogenMod has CM12.1 and CM13 repositories going for the device now, and other ROMs and kernels based on OxygenOS are starting to appear as well, so I don't think that'll be an issue for too much longer. If you already had the OP1, I'd recommend against upgrading since you don't gain anything major other than a fingerprint scanner, but since you're asking which of the two, my vote is definitely for the OP2.

Not to ignore LAF and FP for custom ROMs are still in mist as Oneplus refused to release the codes, saying they are licensed or something similar.
Despite that two thing, I personally think OPT is a good phone. OOS is not perfect but we can expect OOS on MM.
Stick with oneplus one. I am heavy gamer I. E injustice normally with my old OPO I need to charge one time. But with the OPT I have charge twice a day

(Q) S7 Edge custom rom development

Hi everyone,
Is it normal that untill now there are only 2 custom roms?
I'm used to having several rom option when switching devices....
What do you think?
Yes I find it very weird indeed
I think it's because snapdragon versions are locked and development for exynos isn't that easy (at least it wasn't with older samsung devices)

I was wondering the same thing myself and just assumed that the lack of ROMs was just due to the fact the phone is still relatively new.... I could be wrong though.

Yeah it's an exynos thing. I remember when the s6 and s6 edge came out, man it took forever for those devices to get custom roms. Have to give it time though.

I was wondering the same thing myself and just assumed that the lack of ROMs was just due to the fact the phone is still relatively new.... I could be wrong though.

I assumed the same thing to, though I did suspect that they may be roms that are not listed specificlly in the roms forum.
I did actually find echoe rom, they have their own forum, and that's why it's not listed.. Looks good, going to give then a try.

Even now the customer Rom and kernel which made for s6 and s6 edge are lack as well
Give it a month to two you will have a few more variants of Touchwiz and no doubt a AOSP build

Yeah, don't expect as many custom roms as before. These devices are expensive, other devices are lasting longer and people are just not rooting as much. You'll mainly see TouchWiz based roms pop up

Only TouchWiz. Aosp is almost. Non existent on exynos.

I forget it was Exynos
(Previous device was note3, and i heard exynos bought up once or twice, so its just something i dont think about to be honest)
Yes in that case say goodbye to AOSP,
For the record if people are wondering why, Its really SIMPLE!
exynos = Closed Source
See if you can get a few million people to sign a petition to release the source!!
