Samsung has released details of its Premium Suite upgrade for the Samsung Galaxy S3 smartphone, which brings features previously exclusive to the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 to the smaller high-performance Android handset.
Arriving as part of an upgrade to Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, the Galaxy S3 Premium Suite offers upgrades not found in non-Samsung Android phones - the better for the company to fight the popularity of Google's LG-manufactured Nexus 4 device. Features found in the Premium Suite include a system for predicting future actions called Page Buddy - plug in headphones and have the music player start automatically, for example - and a contextual menu which places your most frequently used options closer to the top.
Other upgrades over a stock Android handset include a contextual tagging system which extends the geo-location feature of the Android camera app with the ability to add details on the date, location and even the weather, and a multi-window system that allows two applications to be opened side-by-side - a great use of the Galaxy S3's high-resolution display. Finally, the system gets an upgrade to the in-built browser to make text size easily customisable and page sharing faster, a new Auto Share Shot mode for the camera that allows pictures to be quickly transferred to devices supporting S-Beam or other near-field communication (NFC) capabilities, and a Facebook news ticker for the lock-screen.
These aren't all of the features promised in the Samsung Galaxy S3 Premium Suite, however: Samsung is teasing the details out piece by piece, posting a video detailing what it claims is around half the facilities available as part of the upgrade. Information on the other features, likely to include the smart-rotation and customisable notification features of Samsung's Galaxy Note II, is due to be released some time next week.
As the update rolls out, it will be made available to all Samsung Galaxy S3 owners free of charge, either as an over-the-air update or using Samsung's own KIES updating software.:good:

Probably the last major update I guess, when the S4 is released that will be the apple of Samsungs eye.

Can anyone explain the difference between stock mms and cm mms?

Keep seeing this mentioned in rom features and haven't been able to find the difference.

Stock anything is just that, the manufacturer stock app or ui, CM (Cyanogen Mod) is a highly tweaked and modified Pure Android (also called Vanilla) experience with no Manufacturer, Carrier or Google bloatware.
Edit: forgot to mention, you may see apps or themes that say CM with them to show that they are compatible with cyanogenmod roms, because not everything may be.

This is from the Cyanogenmod wikipedia Page
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CyanogenMod
CyanogenMod is a replacement firmware of over 60 smart phones and tablet computers, based on the Android mobile operating system. It offers features and options not found in the official firmware distributed by vendors of these devices. Features supported by CyanogenMod include native theming support (also called the "T-Mobile Theme Engine"), Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC) support, a large Access Point Name list, an OpenVPN client, a reboot menu, support for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and USB tethering, CPU overclocking and performance enhancements, soft buttons and other "tablet tweaks", toggles in the notification pull-down (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS), app permissions management, as well as other interface enhancements. CyanogenMod is also stated to increase performance and reliability compared with official firmware releases. [2]
CyanogenMod is developed as free and open source software based on the official releases of Android by Google, with added original and third-party code. Although only a subset of total CyanogenMod users elect to report their use of the firmware, [3] as of 26 January 2012, CyanogenMod has recorded over 1.1 million active[4][5]

Thanks for your input. I welcome all the tweaks and modifications cyanogen and
other developers use as they sometimes are highly beneficial.

SferaDev: Hobby Developing

Hello I am SferaDev!
About me:
Well I am a young developer of only 17 years, I love the Android world and expanded universe of Star Wars. I started programming with JAVA three years ago, then I played some Metro and web and finally I been charmed by the Android experience.
My Android Apps:
My first application was published here on XDA a Task Manager with Holo interface, which bear multiple tasks.
Then, I developed my first "big application" whose development is still in progress and has been LAIA: Learn Android in Android. This app has been a source of review on the XDA portal and has more than 2,000 active downloads at Google Play.
After an afternoon with some friends, occurred to me DateUp. That allows quickly contact friends and propose a plan via Whatsapp.
When testing the library to create random objects and use databases, I developed an application called Random Option.
Recently, I created a utility for root users at 4.2 with a phone that has no multi-user support. The application is called Multiple users feature enabler.
Also I've made my own launcher called Dummy Launcher, designed for kids and old people but honestly it doesn't appeal to XDA users.
What I'm working on, now:
I am working with Paranoid Android team at the moment. I also maintain (unofficially right now) Omni for my device and I work with Illusion Rom when I have time. A detailed list of my ROM work on xda could be (Till JB 4.3 as KK is not stable atm):
Paranoid Android for the Galaxy S: A Jelly Bean 4.3 build with HALO 2.0, App Privacy and a bunch of new features!
Illusion for the Galaxy S: A Jelly Bean 4.3 build with tons of features!
Omni for the Galaxy S: A Jelly Bean 4.3 build with a pure AOSP feeling!
XDA RD Petition:
I made some months ago a request to be a Recognized Developer here on XDA, but they have decline it. The reason it's that I have to improve my work on XDA. So I have been working at XDA till now and I have reapplied to the RD program.
RK29 Tabs
As I own a RK29 tab I've been involved in testing and adapting rooting methods for them in ICS and also posting official updates here in XDA.
I have stopped development on this device due hardware issues with mine.
Thank you for reading and if you wanna support my freely work use the Thanks button and/or the donate to me button!
See you!

Gear S smartwatch to get live traffic updates

Samsung is bringing live traffic data and other new driving-related functionality to users of some of its Galaxy devices following a deal with traffic info provider Inrix.
Due to arrive “just in time for the holidays,” the deal will see Inrix’s data power “several new apps and services” aimed at saving drivers time and frustration. In addition to providing live traffic info, the deal also means apps can more accurately represent the time of arrival. Initially, the new features will only be available on the Galaxy Note 4, Galaxy Note Edge and Gear S smartwatch.

Thanks for the heads up. Kudos to Sammy for stepping up to the plate. I still prefer to use Waze for live traffic and police notifications. Just my 2 cents.
From where Do I get These apps
