[Q] Install Android on Samsung Focus S

Is it possible to install Android on Samsung Focus S? I see where people did it for the original Focus, but no mention for Focus S.

[Q] Samsung S4 Camera apk ported to S4 Active (i9295)

Is it possible to port the original S4 Camera apk to S4 Active system (whether rooted or not). So that we at the Active will also have that DUAL SHOT, SLOWMOTION, FAST MOTION feature... i know Samsung totally take it from the ACTIVE, but is it really possible... its just that, although its not a 13mp and SAMOLED phone... but the water protection, cool HARD BUTTONs, well i really like it... but then again, you cant get both worlds. so if we can port it, at least we can have some GOOD also features to S4 active.

That's what XDA is for!
I'm not an experienced Android developer, but I do know that the Dual Shot, Slow/Fast Motion features are certainly possible to implement. It's purely software related.
This is just another way for Samsung to make the S4 Active seem like it is less capable, or else everyone would've got an S4 Active.
But that's what XDA is for, bringing out the best in our Android phones, by maximalizing the software!
+1 for Dual Shot and Slow/Fast Motion!

s4 active camera apk please upload
Hello, please could someone upload the camera apk for the i9295 as i deleted mine by mistake... Any help would be greatly appreaciated...

Watch 3 running Wear. Will it be possible to run Wear or side load Wear apps?

I got my GW3 about 8 months ago and like it more than ever. I am in Canada and change the Region a few times, and finally settled on XAR. Got BP running and I find it has all the functionality I need. Now with the announcement that GW4 will be running Wear, my fear is that new apps for GW3 will dry up and developers will focus on Wear.
So, I am curious, will Wear be more Tizen than WearOS. Will it be possible to change GW3 firmware to Wear? What about side loading Wear apps.... will that be possible?

Crystal Ball and deep look into future?
No Firmware leaked... no details nor somebody saw Wear running in action...
Maybe it looks like they are trying to hold their WatchFaces...
MAYBE old WatchFaces... maybe few of them can be used... MAYBE.
This is SM-R860 Firmware Development...

IMHO nothing final...
They are still playing around... since April...

Samsungs switch to Tizen
I bought the Galaxy Watch 46mm several years ago becuase I wanted the ability to run a few apps and to make my own watch face. I started from scratch with GWS (it was GWD back then) and made my first face OK. I’ve used that face ever since (actually I recreated and tweaked it a bit with the...

I think a GW3 update for the new hybrid OS is a pipe dream. Samsung wants to sell you a new watch - manufacturers almost never bring something like this to old hardware.
And it might [probably] be very difficult to bring the hybrid OS to the GW3 because the new hardware is developed specifically for the hybrid OS.

Is there a petition to upgrade Galaxy Watch 3 to Wear OS?

Question Third Party Custom Roms?

Hi does anyone know if the Exynos Galaxy S21 Ultra will be getting any other third party roms (EG : Pixel Experience or Lineage OS) in the near future? As I’m getting sick and tired of One UI. I do understand and acknowledge that rooting and modding android devices are more complex than prior devices but it would be nice to be rid of One UI on a great android device like the Galaxy S21 Ultra.

Most likely since it may take some time. I am using S9+ and it's still getting ROMs even today. The same goes for S4 as well.

When someone will support this device

To be honest I think the days of Samsung flagships running Android in that form has long gone sadly. The phone would be an absolute beast running closer to stock android.
This is what Google hasn't figured out. Make a phone that does it all and it's a winner..not since the Nexus days has it been that way. Beyond the camera obviously...will it change with the new pixel remains to be seen

Yes that's why I'd like to combine powerful hardware ( samsung ) with lineage os ( smoothness) would be great
