After owning the galaxy there's no question in my mind most of us will remain with Samsung and android especially people who use custom Roms. But what's next after having this amazing phone?
It has been a year now since I've had mine, and obviously its soon time to upgrade.
For me I think ill skip the galaxy S 2... I don't think its worth the upgrade just yet.
I am waiting to see if Samsung will release a phone with 2gigs of ram and maybe a quadcore? 2ghz CPU?
That's my dream within the next year but that's unlikely so ill likely settle for 1.5 gig in each and dual core CPU.
I wonder what area will get more attention in the near future.
Galaxy S III but its not out till later next year or the Nexus Prime
Possibly a Nexus 3 or a Galaxy S III. I really wanted a Nexus One but the GS is my first Android phone and the Nexus s wasn't all that appealing to me. I don't plan on buying a new phone until early next year so right now I would say it could be either of those two.

I'll skip the SGS2 also and wait for number three, right now with all the custom roms I am very pleased with my SGS
What do you guys believe should be the focus of future upgrades?
Battery life?
More features? 4g etc nfc .. better front facing camera?
Or performance improvement?
We know they will attempt to do it all but the likelihood of pulling off everything is very low.
Samsung Galaxy Note 5,3 Zoll
SGS II .

I think that they must give us a battery which can last for days otherwise, why do I need the phone which is on the power almost every night? What if I want to take it to the hiking or camping? Or, they can make solar cells in the back. There is nothing else that they can add to this phones , maybe altimeter, barometer. But I think they will go the pc way, programs and games will get bigger and needy, so performances will follow..

There was a rumor going around that Amazon was making a Mobile Phone. The battery cover had solar cells on the back.
I have a G2x right now, and I'm in no rush to upgrade. My phone is up to par with most devices out right now.

I'll wait a couple of years, when there will be a 16-core which can do me a coffee, teleport me and make me travel in time

Definitely not a phone bigger than the SGS.
I want a phone, not a tablet. The Prime and the SGSII are automatically eliminated.
Fortunately my SGS and Atrix will buy me time, until the right form factor comes along with the extra muscle under the hood...

I hate my Galaxy. Most unreliable phone I have ever had: Terrible battery life, hickups and random slowdowns, poor GPS and modem, poor wifi and (happened again yesterday) random resets. I'm done with anything Samsung makes - you just never know about their products.

For anyone else not happy about battery life on the SGS, get yourself a Samsung Armani 1650Mah battery. (Same physical size as stock!)
I get a day to day and a half with no problems, and I abuse my battery. (especially with the display and browsing)
I can easily make it through the day on a full charge...

Odexed is pure stock. More difficult to mod unless the dev puts out both versions. It is supposedly faster also. Never could tell a difference in speed. But I like to stay close to stock so I always run odexed and odex all of my work. Deodexed is good for modding and theming since you only have to do things once. It is also a little smaller in size. Again supposedly a little slower, like starting apps. Also more difficult to get things working right at times. Like Google Wallet working on my Odexed Rom but not on Deodexed.
I am sure if you Google them you will find much better answers than what I have provided.

This bloody thing didn't save anything really, just annoyed me by turning off things i set to autosync and etc. Used to use it on my S3 when it first leaked months ago and broomed it fast when i noticed i wasn't receiving emails and such anymore. Apparently it turns off what it "thinks" is not necessary, like email accounts i set to check every hour. After a few days of no email, which i found weird, i went into my email settings and this silly app had turned off sync and set it to manual amongst other annoyances. I never really noticed any battery savings anyway.

But the HTC one is riddled with QC issues and doesn't really improve much over the last Gen of phones. The next Gen has snapdragon 800, 3000 mAh batteries and whatnot. Plus, the 800s are really close. Like the G2 is already here.
The One isn't that good IMHO. The camera is overhyped really and the number of defects people are reporting make this phone worth skipping.
To stay on track with your question the CM experience is something I don't think someone in their right mind would recomend. Hell it has a tendency to burn up some phones and need replaced.

I agree if your sole decision is CM. Then wait. Cm was better on my gs3 than on here. It's pretty buggy and as has been said there are many reports of people's phones bricking cause of cm. To the quality control issue... I have had none, this phone has been great in that regard... But maybe I'm just lucky . In all honesty, overall this is the best phone I've ever owned. I don't think you'd go wrong with this phone.

My $0.02:
For the short while I was able to use CM, I wasn't exactly blown away. It was exactly the same as my GS2, but with better specs. There were no extra features or anything. It looked nice with Black Infinitum, but again, not really different from my old phone. There were some bugs, so...
And you do have to watch out for the max freq lock, which will burn up your phone as it sits.
EDIT: However, CM Nemesis is coming soon. I would still wait for for a new device with better specs, but hey, this is a fairly new device.

I really haven't had any issues since 10.1
Sent from my One using XDA Premium HD app
I used it for a week while on vacation and while it was nice to see a less bloated One with all the additional customization .. there were several issues and features that made me go back.
The biggest was GPS lock - I could not get a steady lock and if I did the radius was quite large, throwing me all over the map.
The phone actually seemed less responsive overall - including a slight delay when turning on the phone.
Missed the htc car app - google car and the ones from the market are not the same
and the IR - now it has only come in handy once, when my remote died; however, the remote can be fun at the bar
The HTCOne is a unique phone, the button layout is strange and is my biggest headache. Contrary to most posts above I like the CM experience on it better then sense, but this is my first (and only ever!) sense phone. I much prefer the AOSP experience. CM is lacking in a few places but core functionality is there and works good enough for me for daily use, for the record I'm on 10.2 20130819
Truthfully though I think I would wait for a new nexus device. I love the feel of the One in my hand but it's nothing amazing hardware wise.

Just a quick check guys.
Does the music still sound wonky? 10.1 would make my songs really quiet then normal then quiet etc. It drove me crazy.
Also, does the wake still take like a second? That was also a problem with 10.1.

Well crap. Thanks though. Are these even recognized issues?
I loved my note 2 but I was expecting note 3 to make me more happier, first the boot loader is locked which has already pissed me off. Then so many other issues google map voice was on s voice then it got fixed now WiFi is not working properly then as a business man I need my phone to ring whenever someone needs my service but when it is in my pocket for whatever reason it goes on silence mode and so many other things that is giving me enough reasons to sell it and buy note 2.
Just wanted to share my experience here. The phone is fast but I would still prefer note 2

I thought about going back to a note 2 also when I fist got the ATT note 3. What you should really do is sell your ATT note 3 and buy yourself a T-Mobile note 3, then root, unlock using chain fires region unlock (3 bucks) throw your ATT sim in the tmo phone, change your APN's to ATT and flash what ever you want. This phone has been rock solid for me in every way since I switched to a tmo phone on ATT network.

I agree. When my Note 3 isn't being used, the battery depletes at just 1-2% per hour. That's stock/unrooted, nothing done about bloatware, WiFi and GPS enabled, no power-saving modes used.

I agree. Mine used to be that nice. I can not figure out what's going on. I've uninstalled just about everything..it seems to happen when my signal is weak but android os is strange way to report it. Plus my signal has always been weak at work but this android os/battery drain is only about a week old. It started when I rooted using kingo.
Something during that process or something they have hidden is killing my phone...I'm on m19 so not possible to return to stock.

You are so right bro, this would be a good lesson for me to wait little longer and not buy a phone which can not be optimized the way I like it.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app
I have times when the battery drains faster than others and I'm pretty sure it's because the phone is switching between 3g and lte constantly while at work where the lte signal is weak. When I'm away from work battery drainage is just fine. Do you have a weak lte signal making the device constantly switch frequencies?

I'm sorry but has gotta be the most boring forum I ever encountered since being on XDA.
It just dead!!!! it either nobody got nothing to talk about, or the S5 has been a poor seller, all the other Galaxy forums on XDA are alot more active than this place, even the S4 one.
Or is there another reason why nobody bothering to post much these days?
Cause XDA has lost its touch. S5 is great but I have stopped development on phones like most devs have. XDA is boring. /My Opinion

Maybe it's just such a great phone, easy to root, and with Xposed modules, you don't need anything else. Battery life and performance are great, the OS keeps improving.
Perhaps people are realizing that there is more to life than caring about minuscule incremental upgrades to your phone.

Nothing more to add. Still using stock firmware, no need to change that untill stable CM or Google Play Edition firmware will show up. Untill then it's perfect as it is with towelroot.
I can agree with all above. Rooted and Xposed. So far so good. Cyanogen or Google play edition would be nice , but until then no worries.

I can say I've learned vast -- incredibly vast -- amounts in my short time here. Been anxiously waiting my first rom flash. Had to get SD card (im new to smartphones also) but then my charge flap broke so now i need to take it in for a fix. Having towelroot only, and just started tinkering with nova & themer today.
I did not want to buy the S5 to be honest but I am glad I did. Great phone with zero lags an good battery life. No complaints so far ?

And we have a perfect root method and there are some good custom ROMs for TW and some kernels that are very good for modding and tweaking. We got pretty much what we need until the camera and gps issues is fixed for some custom roms, there is not too much to talk about right now. So the activity is not as high. Come up with some interesting topics if you feel there is something missing in SGS5 General!

Especialy new(er) menbers are different these days imo, users used to search and read up and now its as they expect on demand service and satisfaction. Spoiled & lazy brats, i`d love to kick some in the ass some times
