I'm a software engineer that started to develop android apps recently. Though my first experience with android development was... hard to remember the date, I've been a student and we all had android 3.x. A lot of new stuff has happened to android since then
Also going to try to update os version on my Galaxy S9, probably some LineageOS is my only option. So it feels like I should be here and I am happy to be here!

Hello,
I just made up an question. When do you people think Android L will be released? And do you think it will be released for the GT-N7000? If so when do you think it will be released?
Thanks in advance,
Cédian.
Hi Dev_Freak,
There will NEVER be an official release of Android L (Android 5.0) for our N7000.... As Samsung gave up on us with JellyBean (and an old one at that, 4.1.2, didn't even make 4.2.x or 4.3.x..... certainly no KK).
So we just have to hope we have enough Devs out there who still find it fun to code for our old hardware now... As it seems some of the bigger groups have already abandoned us anyway...
Cheers, Lister

Thanks I then wait for the long time for as example cm12
Yeah, CM12 won't be rushed... Even more so now they are a proper company, rather than just a project based community...
It's better for a group to take their time and hold back, than to rush it, be the first to claim "Android L" rom, and then have several pages of people complaining and slagging them off for a buggy build...

Yeah that's true. CyanogenMod was started by an small amount of people, but they grew and edited more and more devices and got very many devices and porters etc, right? I love CyanogenMod because it's an great aftermarket stock like ROM and they'll support this device long enough thanks to the specs of this device and features of the new stock ROMs. BTW I added soft keys so I feel more comfortable since my second android device was an galaxy nexus. I was puking and pieing at the same time and my phone then broke. I had as first android device an xperia x8. I am btw only fourteen almost fifteen only six days till my 15th birthday. But I am very handy with phones and computers. And at school sometimes they ask me to get the computer cables into the computers.
My first smartphone was a Windows Mobile. I got my hands on an android phone very late. But it was actually fortunate as the information about how, do and don't was readily available then. After I started to use my android phone I quickly came to know about XDA because I was very much interested in trying custom ROM (stock based) than MIUI. But I was glad I bought this particular model (mido). It's been 4 years since then but I still have my first android phone up and running smoothly powered by LOS 18.1.
I am thankful for the hard work that all the developers put in bringing so much to masses for free.

Yeah those amazing WM times!, I still have my HTC Universal working!.
Glad to aquaintance an old timer!
Alright. Hello there people, it's nice to be finally meeting the XDA community! I hope I can stay around here for a long while.
I own a Samsung Galaxy S9 (SM-G960F) - thank my luck for having the Exynos processor on it. I have flashed Noble ROM 2.3 on it, which represents One UI 4.1 or Android 12, for short.
I enjoy poking around TWRP and the custom ROM's since I can further understand how everithing in AOSP works. (no, I'm not looking at the code, just going around menus and settings)
My main reason for joining XDA is because I've been surfing on the forums for some years now and I should've made an account earlier.
There we go, that's pretty much it!

Hello, nice intro!
Welcome toXDA
My first account was made in 2011 when I was 12. I had a Galaxy Y S5630 (totoro) armv6 powered mini vibrator. I wanted to upgrade to ICS from gingerbread and XDA was my Bible back then. (I couldn't do it because CyanogenMod didn't have Broadcom drivers back then sadly but I learnt to install custom firmwares)
Now I'm an AI engineer in an MNC at 23. I miss modding and the excitement it gave me back then.
Now, all my work emails, banking apps, important government documents and messages are on my phone so modding feels like a task!
Also, Android development hasn't been revolutionary in terms of functionality. It's now come to performance and smoother hardware interfacing. It has saturated.
I miss the Steve Kondik, Koushik Datta and KANGing days listening to Linkin Park, Akon and Eminem while flashing CWM before every ROM installation on my Windows 7 powered core duo 2 machine playing GTA San Andreas waiting for the latest CyanogenMod Nightly to download.
I wish I could go back to those days of being excited to Google up the latest UI changes in the next version of Android and then waiting for Nexus' announcement.
Surely, now that you have rejoined XDA, your assistance to young users will be as exciting to them as your experience of years past.

I am the same age, I got into android modding in 2015 trying to install android kitkat on my samsung galaxy star pro and ended up flashing a JB ROM themed as kitkat called "kitkit" lmao was very fun. Themeing was my entry point into android.
Fast forward now, I work in android R&D in an tech startup and I'm having real fun but it can get lonely at times because I'm a individual contributor.
Let's see where the future takes us.
As for android, it has saturated and it's basically hardware revisions and better software.
I do remember using CWM recovery, Philz Touch Recovery, Carliv Image Kitchen for MTK etc but TWRP became the defacto go-to recovery, thanks DeesTroy!
CM became Lineage and so on.
I still have an Samsung Galaxy S5 with me which I mod all the time, Galaxy M32 4G as my main driver and it has increasing become less fun to mod android due to safetynet and more restrictions. Android is becoming iOS and iOS is becoming android, weird but ok.
Welcome back to XDA!
Hello. There is no custom rom for samsung s23 (sm-911b / ds)?
No, and sadly, there will unlikely ever be.
It looks like you are new to XDA, actually you should only add the "Development" tag if you are actually posting your own development, questions and discussions like this should have the "Question" tag.
Lol ... Very curious to know what come to the conclusion "and sadly, there will unlikely ever be".
The phone has been released 3 months ago, stop staying misinformation.
There is already one for the S23 ultra.

Yeah it's not certain a custom rom will never be released, but the software currently being released by OEMs (and especially Samsung IMO) is already so jam packed with features and quite well executed as well.
I once used to root every android phone I had and even flashed new roms daily as I was doing beta testing. Ever since my Pixel 5 however, this desire has been gone completely. And it appears this is the same for other users, as the user activity on XDA is only a fraction of what it used to be in the days when I was still here for Samsung Nexus S and Galaxy S4 roms.

It's really a community thing. I agree users tend to not using custom ROM anymore. And yes, it's coming mostly because Android is just becoming as almost perfect and Samsung is really doing a great job with OneUi & update on time.
But I believe users tend also to keep the same smartphone longer than before. So I guess , and if the community is still there, custom ROM could have a big place once Samsung will stop to do major update on the S23 (in four years approximately).
So let's see, this phone is awesome, and could have the perfect hardware to make it alive longer than 4 years.
The future will tell
If some people work on bringing up LineageOS on this phone please let us know. People are already working on the OnePlus 11 and Moto X40, with non-booting builds for now.
We need to join forces to bring AOSP/LineageOS to the sm8550. CAF sources are available, Samsung sources too, bootloaders can be unlocked, so there's no reason we can't achieve this.

yess samsung release their source code, but sometimes they left few broken code that couldn't be track down easily because of no version control system.
