[Discussion] Android 4.4 KitKat - Galaxy Ace S5830i General

While looking at this website: http://www.android.com/kitkat/index.html I found this:
Could this mean Google is tackling their fragmentation? If so, would 4.4 come out on legacy devices? I'd love to hear your thoughts and opinions about this. Off topic posts welcome too

Android 4.4 is coming,but we stuck in 2.3.6(2.3.7);((
The only way,to buy new device,but to discuss about 4.4 is good idea))

If Broadcom release the sources, then we can get android 4.4 but it will take a while. Just look at s530, they have android 4.3

First of all, if Samsung wanted to build something for us, they'd already have done. We have been through 2.3.7, 4.0.3, 4.0.4, 4.1.0, 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.2.1, 4.3 and Samsung didn't do anything for us. What makes you think that they would develop 4.4 for us, as long as it must require a lot of hardware specs. And even if samsung wanted to build something for us, they wouldn't do it because of Broadcom. But, if we receive Broadcom drivers, then it's a whole different story.

If Samsung need sources then how do we have stock ROM? It's common sense Samsung has the sources but they cannot release it because it's not theirs. Like Android-Fany said they need perms.

It could be possible that they very lowered the required hardware specs in 4.4.

That is only upto 512 MB RAM and ARMv7 Processor

KitKat, however, means that I have to abandon my KLP theme

I Doubt it.Platform Specific files would be missing.Anyway,Why not wait a few days for an official release?
I dont mind waiting. I just saw the pist on my google+ and was wondering if anyhing could be done
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
back at google I/O people got JB either from the nexus or from the N7 and there were flashable ROM's before source dropped...so it is possible i think. but it probably wont be complete or very stable.
Also just to throw in, you can download all the system apps from that link

All odexed.. Yech...
not too helpful. as mentioned mostly device specific. its not source, its a dump off the LG

Advice

Hi there!
Well this is a pretty simple thing: I have a SE Arc S and Im thinking on getting a LG 4x! Since you guys have been using it do you recommend it? Also I know that it comes or is upgradeable to ICS, but is it going to get JB?
Is the root process easy? Bootloader unlock? Etc.
I appreciate all feedback!
Thanks
Sent from my LT18i using Tapatalk 2
im from galaxy ace , so the rooting method is quite hard at first but then its easy, just read the instruction then you ready to go , about the bootloader some of the people here getting message from lg that the bootloader will be unlocked on the next version jellybean, and hopefully it will come true

All about Jelly Bean update

Ok, I think Jelly Bean Update will not come, see the last GB Build " June 4" they are only working with GB.
Now we can post here any news about the JB update and dont spam another thread...

Well i think there wont be any JB update, Samsung has now 999 diferent terminals, even the SIII is waiting for 4.2 for a while....
I think there will be jb update but not this year...

if there is update it should come very soon.. almost year since 4.1 came out, still no update.. lol
Last GB build date is 03.04.2013, which is maybe promising, isn't it?
Making GB builds in 2013 should be illegal in Samsung...but the carriers knows better.
samsung will ignore our device and start to build key lime pie for other device. maybe there is ics update but not jellybean

Beam got JB
Actually it said that official samsung update will be out around the end of next month, so probably jena will get updated around there, IF it get JB..
Nice news, its build date is from June 1st.
But Beam has the same hardware as Ace 2, sans the projector. And Ace 2 got JB some time ago.
That update for the Beam was leaked by Sammobile, so it didn't receive the update officialy yet.
That means that probably Beam will be the next device to get JB. Then will be the Galaxy S Duos and finally the Mini 2. Or maybe the mini 2 first and then the S Duos...
So I think we will see the update at the middle of summer.
If there will be an update, of course.

This is only the leaked rom, isn´t it?
Correct me if i´m wrong, but we need the bootloader and baseband to be sure that it works correctly?

Rom is working great for all that flashed it, gmillz is working on deodexed atm but he's having some issues. You can follow the conversation at http://webchat.freenode.net/# #Android43

If you backup & have experience flashing roms, you should be okay. Be safe, though.
