Hi to everyone outhere. Just pulled out my 4x of the shipping box, thought i'd do a little introduction (hoping it won't disappoint anyone)
My name is Rudjgaard, 27 years old Italian...compiler (developer sounds too much for my level )
I come from the sony xperia's where i worked on miui v2 & 4 and currently maintain the ParanoidAndroid thread for sony mdpi line.
I'm unlocking bl now, then will dump system rom to give it a look (though i don't expect major differences) and hopefully by the end of the week will start working for the community.
I like working in tandem with other devs, i also offer my computer for remote compiling/programming if anyone needs decent specs.
Feel free to pm me anytime for anything regarding possible projects to personal help i'll do my best to help out.
I believe this should suffice for now, looking forward to this new part of community,
Best regards,
Rudj

Hi all.
Anybody knows if Ubuntu Touch for Galaxy S 4 Active is being made?
Can we use the standard galaxy S4 build, if they manage to get it working on their system?
It is basically the same (same Processor, sound device, etc.), except for the camera.
I am willing to give 10 USD to the person who creates the first working beta
(I know its not much, but i am a student, so i dont have much money right now.. )
All the best,
Toby

It also has a different screen amongst other things, meaning it needs a different kernel - different drivers. I wouldn't hold my breath on ANY more roms coming to the i9295. It simply didn't gain enough traction!

Thanks for the pick me up
But shouldnt all that needs changing be the blobs for the CM build?
Since Ubuntu touch relies on CyanogenMod to work, and since we have a pretty stable CM rom going, couldnt we just use the blobs from the i9505 build with minor adjustments to get going?
or have i misunderstood the build process?

Heh, yes I'm a bit bitter. I'm planning to sell my active and get a nexus 5 instead thanks to the lack of developments, so I can't help but rub it in a bit on the way out. While there's been some upswing lately for the i537 thanks to safestrap, none of that translates to the i9295.

Well, I'm using the CM build from this forum as my daily user, and "pretty stable" is a good description. Not stable enough really, and the most pressing issue is the lack of official CM support to make it so. I don't know how easy it is, but quite obviously there's more to it than you'd think or it would have happened already. Samsung is (apparently) notorious for not making it easy in any way, so... I wouldn't hold out hope. Not since this device turned out to be so slowly adopted that there just doesn't seem to be enough developers interested.
Perhaps this will change over the year to come, but I doubt it, and I for one don't have time for it.

No, of course it is not easy, but what i was saying is, that when the i9505 gets going, which i believe it will, since they have been working on it for about a month now, i believe it could "easily" be converted to the i9295.
The i9505 is a lot more similar to the i9295 than the i537, they both share the same Krait processor, and the screen is already fully supported in the current CM build of the i9295, so i dont see that as a problem.
Of course it will take some time, but i believe (okay, a better word would be "hope") that when the i9505 has Ubuntu Touch ready, it will not take long for us.

CyanogenMod recently pushed out stables for CM10.2 on a select range of devices announcing that, with this, their efforts would be solely focused towards the CM11 code branches. However, they also announced that any devices which received that RC1 of CM10.2 would too continue into CM11.
My question, considering we are still unfortunate enough to be on somewhat unstable nightlies (the notification sound delay, UI issues, application crashes) is, what will be the future of CyanogenMod on the O4x? Will we even make it to stable CM10.2?
Hopefully we can! This is such a brilliant device as you all know well, and the hardware restrictions of KitKat are supposed to be lowered anyway
For clarification, this is not a complaint, the work of the CyanogenMod Team is always much appreciated. I, and so many of you, have donated and thanked them and tested their software for them. This is merely to gain an understanding of where our device is headed so as to aid everybody here in the decision of whether to stick with the device or, should worse come to worse.... look for another :-/

probably no official CM11 for us, or 10.2 stable/rc, atleast in forseeable future. thankfully, we have some very skilled devs working on unofficial version of CM, & Vanir&Omni.

Thank you, I was just wondering about the state of the official ROMs, it seems like the P880 has been forgotten about by CM
But, as you say, we are very lucky to have these fantastic devs building even better custom ROMs

If everything is working right we should be able to submit it to cyanogenmod to get our nightlies back, but im not 100% sure

Can't wait to see the community development though, the new Android RunTime looks very fascinating :3
why dont u enter cyanogenmod and see with your eyes ? anyway. of course we dont see any support. its a miracle that we had that much support too. who will support a phone which doesnt even has the support of the official company ? LG only had 4.0.3 and 4.1.2 and thats all. isnt it already a miracle that we have 4.3.1 ? and we have also so many good developers that work for 4.4 ?
I don't understand why people want 4.4 so bad when it's one of the worst upgrades from Google i have ever seen. They had to launch 4.4.1 updates right away. You want a better software I agree thats needed but 4.4 isn't a solution.

Everyone wants KitKat because... Well, because it's new! Why not? I believe that pushing one's expectations beyond what is already achieved represents a strong impulse to improvement. Experimenting, trying new solutions, feeling the awesomeness of something that did not exist before is a powerful spring to the change, the change in itself is something that animates the developers and makes them work with no reward as if this was their job.
It has happened with all Android versions, and always there had been someone who felt amazed and wondered why should we need a new version.
kK can be (and probably is, but who am I to judge) one of the worst Android versions, but I am happy to see people trying to overcome all the problems related with making it work on a relatively old device, and I am happy if by testing what is being developed, and by giving my opinion I can be of some help to somebody.
Want to call it a game? Why not! Want to consider people like me as grown up kids that need something to play with? Well, yes, I am, and will always cheer a new Android version working on one of my devices with grateful heart.
Ricardo Cerqueira is no longer the maintainer of our device?
there is no one who will replace him?
It should be possible to join the CM team, if the 4.4 is running.
The tegra3 problems will hopefully not be a trap for it.
If there is a maintainer who can update CM once, there will be no real reason not to get official support.
Good news everybody!
On the CyanogenMod website, the P880 has been listed officially as one the devices to receive support further than the CM10.2 nightlies, which will be a win-win for everyone
Bye Bye CM !

I saw the latest list the have revealed now, this is great!!
Noticed though that they said MOST of the devices that have CM10.2 builds will move into CM11 nightly during the next weeks.. "Most" hopefully means the P880 as well!

Yes, hopefully!
But hey, a stable CM10.2 would even be fantastic, the community devs would appreciate it surely
We never got the m1 and stable so i hardly belive it that we get cm11. And without a good 3.4 kernel source from lg we wont feeo many adventafes of 4.4. but the awesome awesome optic would be nice Maybe im going to buy a Nexus 5. Im so frustrated of my lg optimus 2x and 4x. ONE update -.-
I definitely appreciate the roms that SDBags and every other developer has made, but I was hoping for more options available, specifically in AOSP Roms. I love the transformer lineup because it is super useful as a cheaper high performing school laptop for note taking and has a stylus for taking notes with. But honestly, I rarely have cared for asus's stock software compared to AOSP, and AOSP definitely will give me much speedier performance, much more customization and much more recent updates overall.
Can any developers let me know why there haven't been more available AOSP Roms lately, or maybe its a problem with the tf701t hardware making it harder to Rom for? Or maybe not many people are buying this tablet? I just want an idea of what I would be in for if I buy this tablet soon.
Also, has any of the Tf700 tablet developers been asked to help develop for this tablet? (Just an Idea)
This is not a bashing on any developers who are making this Rom. Especially with SDBags. I have used his CROMI Roms on the TF300t all the time and they are AWESOME!!! I was just curious why the tablet hasn't gotten much attention in the ROMs section from hearing all sorts of good things from this tablet

Not many devs bought the device, we only have cm11 source available, I don't have time to make loads of roms from source, although I might have a surprise for you soon.
It's about time other people started learning how to build from source don't you think? How about you give it a go?

I totally understand where you are going at. You are a great developer and I am not asking specifically you, just mainly other developers that haven't shown their awesome work for this tablet. And, do you know anywhere good to get a tutorial how to build a rom for this device?
Is building a rom for this device much harder than building a rom for another device, like the tf300t? Does the Tegra 4 chip really hard to work with when creating the ROMS for this tablet? Is there a way I can test the rom onto an emulator build of the tf701 on the computer so then I wont risk my tablet being bricked due to my ignorance? sorry for all the questions.
Hello everyone, I invite you to this talk to discuss this topic
Did the Galaxy S Advance came to an end?
I have seen many developers are abandoning the Janice and migrating to other devices, it is very normal, everyone wants a change sometimes
but I worry that we're running out ROMs, I understand that this device is 2 years old but I think he had very little time to live
Anyone else think the same? please I would like to leave your opinion on this topic.

Fact is that we do not have any active developer any more. Just look at our Development section. And I am afraid that we can't do anything about that.

Maybe there'll be some revival with coming lolipop? As I know (not really into this) TC did their job bottom up, so all we need now is some talented kid to step up and learn a bit and prepare for coming OS.:fingers-crossed:

Wysłane z mojego nexusowego tablecika.....
i believe we must understand and accept the scenario right now, right from the beginning this device has been struggling for some serious development due to lack of sources , but our capable and smart devs made efforts and as a result we had a variety of popular roms ported to our phone, but sad thing is the transition has been huge since this phone was launched, so its natural and logical for the devs to switch to other devices and for those who are still having the phone have fear of left alone but dont worry guys i think the devs are kind enough to continue bringing good stuff if anything major happens, although not frequently as it used to be
if we have only one good rom with support, we are done there is no need of many roms if that cannot happen according to me...
infacf even we too might eventually switch to a new device sooner or later
so chill, the change thats happening is natural and quite obvious, i just hope we continue to get support for aospa and cm ,

built from sources* NOT ported.
Guys,don't cry and think a bit at past of s avance ! You know,you can't improve a phone day by day,forever.It has an end due hardware limitation.Who thought that s advance will run cm10.2/11 ? Who tought that we will overclock cpu and gpu? Everyday we opened xda (at least me ) to see if cm10.2/cm11 was released.Let's see what we got until now:
1.Cm 10
2.Cm 10.1
3.Cm 10.2
4.Cm 11
5.Cocore kernel,overclocking cpu + gpu
6.Many roms
What you want more???Overclock to 2.0 Ghz? lol.Is hardware limitation.Also,maybe it can't run Android L.
We got everything is possible for our phone and it was improved alot from stock thanks to our developers.If i would have money,i will donate to them,they deserve.Without them,probably we sold our phone in 1 year.So, every phone has an end.
PS: i forgot to mention that our roms are FULLY WORKING

i didnt mean port in winzip method of ported i said that they ported cm etc unofficially as they are called unofficial ports and i am not questioning anybody's hardwork point here is different
and of android L don't be so negative, at the time of kitkat people used to say the same thing but we got it running, so don't predict anything before devs say anything crude after its full launch...
having said that i am not demanding anything i am just being optimistic as everything that this device got was more than expected and a surprise and i am happy with what we have for now
