Android L leaked for Samsung Galaxy S5

http://www.phonehorn.com/2014/10/android-l-leaked-samsung-galaxy-s5
Looks like Samsung is getting ready to update the beast as soon as Google unveils Android L to public and has started internal testing. Do watch the video preview and visit source for more info. Sorry for no download links as its very buggy and unstable currently

Well, IMHO, I can't see a big difference, but thats because of TW

I like the animations, wonder why the statusbar isn't changing color like the action bar (probably a bug)

More excited for the roms to come.
Touchwiz just ruins it for me.

Rom leak? Or only video

Just a video. Very buggy and laggy atm.

I've never had strong feelings about TW one way or the other, but that may be because I just picked up my first Samsung phone a few months ago. I'm really looking forward to seeing the changes in L.

If there will be no GPE with L I'll switch to Nexus 6

They probably will..... 8 months from now....but I'll be right there with you bro in the nexus 6 forums I just can't wait that long if I already waited so long for aosp on this phone, I just gotta see the phone in person, I never really liked the note series due to its massive size, but if It feels comfortable in the hand I will definitely make the jump, if not nexus 5... S5 had so much potential to be a better phone but with all these damn bugs (battery drainage on idle, audio issues when recording a video, choppy video for 1080p, whatsapp mic still sounds too low)...and Samsung not releasing the right source codes this phone was a disaster... Nothing compared to the s4 forums... *sigh's*

Awww Jesus Christ!!!!!! Wtf!!! See I knew it! And some ppl over at my thread "Android L and Touch Wiz" were doubting Samsung wouldn't ruin it! See I just knew it, how in the F$%& would android L still be present if they got their damn skin over it! Where are the shadows? The animated clicks? Where is the depth for f#%$ sakeeeee!!!! And then there's always AOSP tho right?...smh you know how long that's gonna take to get running on our phoneeeee?!?! Aosp 4.4.4 took like 5 months... Now imagine android L for CyanogenMod... Guess I'm gonna just have to sell my phone... *sighs*

I'm just bothered that all this waiting is always for nothing, and we paid a valued amount for a great spec'd phone but we can't get the best out of it, for f$!# sake is processor (801) is newer than the nexus 5 (800 chip) but the N5 is faster. ..WTF!!! so the reason they feed us this crap is because we are OK with it, so Samsung just keeps screwing us in the a$$ cold, how we pay more for a phone that isn't better than a nexus, and it could of all been better without that TW S!#/ they put in there.... but... we're OK with it... right? Because it's just a phone... right?
That's not the case with nexus phones because they rooooock!!!!! Plus it's made by a younger generation (google)

i find the s5 on touchwiz fine. some apps i personally dont like the look of so i replace with stock kitkat ones. but i dont have any slowdown

I don't like TW eighter, but to sell my phone for it ? Don't think so....
I just installed Go Launcher Ex (my favorite launcher for years already) and remove all the bloatware with Titanium Backup which I don't need or want.
Result : clean rom to my likings

So why did you buy an S5 if you knew you hated TouchWiz and the "lag" (I don't even have any lag on my S5, and my last phone was a Nexus).
Do you people buy Samsung phones just to complain about them? Buy a different brand, it's really not so hard.

protip: Open S voice, go to settings, disable home activation, disable S voice. Congratulations. You have the smoothness of an AOSP ROM without the stupid bugs.

Ohmigosh, the passion...
Got a Note 3 with close to stock ROM. Modding it made it feel and look really not like TouchWiz. No lag, no s**t.
Imagine the Google Launcher when it gets L updated.
Imagine what Wanam's wonders are going to look like after he gets hold on L TouchWiz.
Also, reports claim that even the dev preview of L gets better battery life on the Nexus 5, so AOSP is going to be even better.
Calm your whatevers-that-make-you-mad and be happy that you have first world problems.

Cyanogenmod on the note 4 snapdragon

Hi Guys ! Is somebody already trying to boot Cyanogenmod ? I'm a reverse engineer, have done quite a bit of development work on CM11 for the S4 I9500 and just ordered my Note 4 snapdragon and planning to run and optimize CM12 on our Snapdragon Note 4

Yes, I'm hoping more developers will switch to this device and will start working on booting and running CM as smooth as possible. I just ordered my note 4 yesterday, I still have to wait 2 weeks to receive my device (I don't live in a snapdragon country), hoping to work together with some other devs but if not, going to give booting CM myself a try and will update and report here for sure !

I'm new to the Note line so I have a question. Does the S-Pen work (just work, non of the fancy features) with custom Roms or do devs need to optimize it?

I would love to see it running Lollipop.
Patience... is the key. It will happen.

The spen will work on any rom but samsung specific apps like snote will only work on samsung based roms. On cm based roms there are alternative apps like papyrus and on the note 2 there were specific spen apps made for cm roms so guess the same thing will probably happen on the n4

"This forum is intended for XDA members to find or discuss development on the Galaxy Note 4, including ROMs, kernels, rooting, mods and much more, specifically for the Qualcomm Snapdragon variant of the Note 4."
Sounds like the right place to me.
Anyway on topic: here's the general porting method: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro and here the samsung code: http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=910f
Unfortunately going by what Samsung released previously, we'll need code directly from Qualcomm, did anybody find chipset code for the 805 already ?

And here's the Lollipop Nexus 6 (of course also running snapdragon 805) code:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/android-lollipop-source-pushed-to-aosp/

Oh and also found this thread, should be helpful to get a start: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2532873

Anyway, getting my device in 2 weeks, hopefully around that time CM12 will be released too, mabye we should wait for that anyway, but I wanted to start this thread already to function as a knowledge sharing thread regarding getting cyanogenmod running on the Note 4. Going to do some digging in the sources codes already and see what's there and what's missing.

Sorry but I really miss your point man. This is development and most importantly, this is Snapdragon: this thread has really not much to do with Exynos (which most likely will never even run CM12, at least not in the next year), so I really don't see in which forum it would be more ontopic than this one. If you disagree, let me know in which forum you feel it should be posted in and why and if it makes sense, I'll ask the mod, but again, I really don't see it.

Wow, that's really wonderful news, you made my day man, thanks !!! :good: :fingers-crossed: Can't wait to flash it (need to wait 2 weeks to get my hands on the device though, damn, hehe). I've done quite a bit of work on the i9500, Ironing out bugs by reverse engineering stock ROM and my goal is to make CM12 on our Note 4 the best Cyanogenmod experience so far ! Man, really cant wait !

I just got mine yeaterday im super excited. I'm really surprised how steady it feels in hands. It doesn't feel like a Samsung device at all. My babe is already rooted and unlocked just waiting on lollipop

My theory for a possible bright future for G Flex

I reckon that android is not the future (since not much being done on it for the flex) but in fact windows 10 mobile.
Sounds crazy but if u look at it maybe it isn't:
The Xiaomi mi4 is a snapdragon 800 n that is one of the very very few phones atm that can run android or win10m.
Microsoft are big and experienced enough that I wouldn't be surprised if they released a universal ROM that works on multiple different kinds of systems ala much like normal windows can (Which is part of my expanded theory what they'll do to really penetrate the market).
Is there any hope in my theory? Lol

Anyone agree with me? Cmon I'm trying to bring hope to our beloved phone. Heh.

Of course man! I am unaware of cell phone getting a newer rom skipping various version of android but as we say theres always a first time for everything even though could be the last one we see. I mean this phone still pretty powerful though. D800 under hood, 2gigs starts to be n issue but who cares not every body uses 70 to 100 apps, plus we install roms specially to get the most out our devices! What is it?? What is making this premiun devices not to get enough android development!!??

you are talking about a mobile phone that was completely abandoned by LG but had strong potential, i am literally still stuck at android 4.2.2 on this phone and i can tell you it is absolutely terrible , i am probably buying a letv 1 pro instead, basically my point is that this phone is dead and un supported by any one frankly

Android 8 for SM-G900F

Hi to all SM-G900F fans and for all developers! :laugh:
I'd like to introduce this topic to discuss about the possibility of the Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900F to have the new Android 8. Knowing about some amazing improvements that were made to the new Android 8 that will arrive soon, I'd like to know the following:
[ALL FANS] - What do you think about our S5 SM-G900F having an Android 8 ROM? With a booting time cut in half, with app performance increased in double, with drivers available to update, etc.? If that will be possible to the developers apply to the S5 SM-G900F, it would be great or not?
[ALL DEVELOPERS] - What do you think about the idea of creating an Android 8 ROM for a great 2014 phone? It will be possible to do that with all improvements that were claimed for the new Android 8? It will worth that huge effort?
As you can see I love this phone, no doubt about that. :laugh: But, my wish is to have my Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900F running Android 8 with all those features that were claimed to have in the new Android OS. If that can be possible, I think it would be amazing for this phone! Because I think the hardware is still good to support newer software and it would be very nice to see an excellent quality/price phone like this to match new ones.
I hope my wish can became true. . .please do not let this phone R.I.P!

"booting time cut in half, with app performance increased in double, with drivers available to update" Idk if it is possible, but it will be quite hard. If android 8 will come out, we developers WILL DO OUR BEST to get the best out of the s5. Seriously, we try our best but stop saying things like this, developers do this things without wanting anything in advance from you, SO PLEASE BE PATIENT! And please don't open threads like this because it is like opening a thread and just saying "i bought a new phone and i am happy (no **** sherlock lol) "!

Yeah, you're absolutely right and I apologize for my behavior. I was only excited about that I just decided to try to share my feelings and thoughts with the XDA Community. I love XDA Developers. It teached me so much about everything related to Android over the years. However, I must follow all the rules and have a good behavior so please feel free to remove/delete this thread.
Once again, I'm sorry for having opened this thread. Just a BIG "thank you" to all developers for the hard work they always do and for all members that share doubts and solutions for everything related to Android.
Best regards,
Lu

It's alright to discuss about such things, but never push devs beyond what they can do. You simply show disrespect and it's one of the main reasons why devs give up creating something new.
Regarding Android 8 (Android O), I don't think it's going to be an easy task to port it to our device. At first, on Nougat was hard enough to make everything working (camera being one of the main highlights, since N has a completely revamped camera interface under the hood, like different process handling and stuff). I can't imagine, what O actually brings to the table and in no way it's going be a walk in the park.
And neither battery life nor camera is going to be as good as stock. Blame Samsung and Touchwiz for their closed source nature.

Even if it happens, camera will still suck. Why flash something that makes your phone worst and unstable, just to say that you have the latest android version in "phone about"

I don't know why you are so hyped about it, it has really small changes since Lollipop...

Of course not. It's about to have all the NEW features in your OLD phone (if possible, of course). I think there are several phones (like the Samsung Galaxy S5) that have plenty potencial to run newer software. Besides that, one teacher I had, one day, he told in the classroom that there's no limits when programming, it only depends on our imagination to create solutions. I'm nobody to say that his words are correct or not, but I believe if there's will and hope that things are capable to be made.

I'd love to see Android 8 on my S5. It is true and it will be always true that the stock TW camera is the best one. It has slow-mo and 1080p60 video (I know that OnePlus camera has 720p90fps slow-mo, but that's not that great comapared to the stock.) But in my opinion, for some picture shooting, it is a great camera with the stock Lineage camera as well. (Maybe one day someone can find Samsung's driver).
Besides that, the S5 runs great with the latest 7.1.2 Android, and I believe that it will run as fast (if not better) with Android O.
Definetly hope for an upcoming information, devs: take your time, make a great rom.

I don't see anything wrong with this topic? The guy just asked if it's possible lol He didn't tell you "MAKE IT NOW!!". About stock android 8 - no. Stock android is boring, even Samsung's version of KitKat has more features than the newest stock android from Google. But some sort of port from, let's say, the Note 8 or the Galaxy S9 would be awesome in my opinion. There already are S8 ports for the KLTE which work with little bugs that will be fixed soon (SkiesROM) or ones that don't really matter that much (DreamUX ROM). Hardware is more than capable. iPhones have super low hardware and Apple updates them for 4-5 years ahead. This means that 'old' 2014 hardware like the S5's can be used perfectly fine even in 2020...with the right developers. BUT, nothing beats official Sammy firmware. Sure, you'll get the new features from android O(reo?) and the new Note8/S9 but bugs are inevitable whereas TouchWiz 6.0.1 is fine in every aspect. I'll stick to my S5 until 2019-2020 and then buy a new S10 or S11 (xd). I just hope that Samsung bring back the features from the S5 like IR blaster, fingerprint scanner on the front, hover view in the gallery and video apps, etc. FM Radio won't hurt too (still envy my S3 Mini for having it, 1%=3h radio) :|

Android 4.0 For Samsung Galaxy Pocket (Further Development Attempt)

Hello!
I have old Galaxy Pocket, and when i saw that no one even tries anymore to do anything for this little cute phone, I'm gonna do it
And first, is gonna be Android 4.0
i know people already did that... but these version's didn't work fully , all of them had some sort of problems
and that's what i'm gonna try to do, I'm gonna modify and patch one of better version's of ICS for pocket that already exists
so... i guess that's it... I'm gonna update this when i will make some progress

https://1drv.ms/u/s!AtgktraixCghnkfHvmEO0QWh0fNL?e=HEacm9

So any progress?
I am from the s5830i community and since our device share the same processor, I thought I can come and see if any of your bug fixes would work on the s5830i. Current issue is headphone routing but thing is I don't know if it is an issue for you guys with the Pocket.
Edit: Dug into the android development section a bit and found out you guys have the same front speaker and headphone routing issue.

hey, this is great man . i cant wait (i dont know if that you try to do works on my gt-s5301l or is the same). if you can do for a upper version of android (like 4.2) i would be happy. (do it if you want :v)

Nope, Pocket (S5300) and Pocket Plus (S5301) have different chipset and then aren't compatible.
There's currently a 4.2 ROM for you device, but it is in very early stage.
I also have a S5301L and I'm trying to make a decent ROM for this device, but the only and hardest problem is the touch driver not working. I'll post here if I can fix that, but seems that this will be really difficult (the original dev leaved the development 4 years ago for the same reason, broken touch).

Im very sorry for such a long unactivity , i still have interest in doing that update, i just had several work and device problems and i had to do something about them

It's bad that you also abandoned the firmware. And then I still use the pocket and there is not a single normal firmware

The Galaxy Pocket (GT-S5300) uses an ARMv6 processor, that core is nowadays weak and has a lot of limitations (most of them can only be passed by emulation, but as it's a weak cpu the performance would be terrible).

Are you still doing it? How is progress going?

I'm trying to keep Galaxy Pocket alive with Custom Roms, but it doesn't work ...
