Well, it looks like Samsung finally managed to do what it has been trying to do for a painfully long time — the Korean manufacturer has made its first Tizen-powered phone official. Called the Samsung Z, the phone features a 4.8-inch Super AMOLED display of 1280×720 resolution and is powered a quad-core 2.3GHz processor (most like a Snapdragon 800), and runs on version 2.2.1 of Tizen. The Z comes with a new look that should come as a breath of fresh air for those who have gotten bored of Samsung’s design language on Android devices (let’s face it, who hasn’t?), though the overall design seems to be along the same lines as the company’s previous efforts.
The Samsung Z also sports a fingerprint and heart rate sensor and comes with features such as Download Booster and Ultra Power Saving Mode, things that debuted on the Galaxy S5. The hardware specs include 2GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel camera with the usual camera modes that we’ve seen on Samsung’s Android phones (and a 2.1-megapixel front-facing camera), 16GB of internal storage and a microSD slot, connectivity features including LTE-A, NFC and an IR sensor, and a 2,600 mAh battery. It’s basically a mix of the previous three Galaxy S flagships, and for a first device with a new OS, doesn’t really have anything impressive or different to offer.

Hmm..
Well, the specs are good, no doubt in that. But, when it comes down to software, never believe in samsung, coz they ain't good in that field. After bada, I ain't trying anything that comes out from the software kitchen of samsung. Although, the ability to run android apps is a relief.

By the look of it, it looks like they took a lot of "design inspiration" from the Sony Xperia Series.

Absolute no go for me.
The Z will launch in Russia in Q3 and expand to other markets later on, and will also be showcased at Samsung’s Tizen developer conference on June 3rd. However, as Samsung has said in the past, don’t expect to see any Tizen phone in the US and some European markets,..

I think it is time for Z to have chance to test...
RD-PQ seems too old (Firmware) and maybe obsolete... as reference

Sorry, wrong thread...

1) It will be optimised to work perfectly on low-end hardware – even devices with 512MB of RAM so canvas HD will benefit even more.
2) It will use 3.8 Linux kernel.
3) Software Improvements.
4) Complete UI overhaul which would look like our current Google Play store (both desktop and app).
5) etc.
Experimental 3.8 Kernel:- https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/common/+/experimental/android-3.8
Kernel is the centre of attraction, why? because
The 3.8 kernel is supposed to handle memory more efficiently and/or use less. That means there is a good chance that devices that currently have Android 4.1 may even run better on Android 5.0, because of having more available memory. Maybe 1GB of RAM will last longer than anyone thought! and Moto X supports the statement as it's a low end device compared to the competition in the market i.e Galaxy S4, HTC One & Xperia Z. That would help Android fragmentation a lot if 1GB turns out to be plenty of RAM for Android 5.0.
Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie is rumoured to release this october.
Update 1:-
Android 4.3 was released not so long ago for the Nexus 4 and new Nexus 7 2 with build number JWR66V and JSS15J respective, and if you notice these numbers do not have a K in it at all.
Android 4.3 was released a about a month ago and tests have been ongoing with Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie, has this new operating system just been confirmed? The reason is because new reports showing up on the Chromium Project reveals the Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 2 running KLP 5.0 OS.
The site also shows that the Samsung Galaxy S4 number is at JDQ39.I9500UBUAMDK, the Galaxy S3 with JRO03C, and the Note 2 with JZO54K, the first letter for these three devices say J, which means Jelly Bean. So to see the Nexus 7 with KRS36B and the Nexus 4 with KRS36B, this means the K is for key Lime Pie.

The Nexus 5 by LG is going to arrive in October and you know every next gen Nexus gets a new Android OS which is the Google way(i.e. Key Lime Pie).
I think they did not unveil KLP at Google I/O because they wanted to save it for the Nexus event. These are just guesses but a lot of trusted sources are confirming that it will be unveiled in October at Nexus launch event.
Maybe but

They will release it for Canvas 4 for sure so it won't be a problem to port it to Canvas HD as both have same specs
But I think MMX will release it for HD if they are releasing it for Canvas 4.
Updated.
Hey after reading the software policy on Honor's website, still left wondering. Will it get the update?
Nougat update will be made for Honor 5X. It will take little more time than stock androids.
Remember that Honor 4X, which was released with Kitkat is now running Marshmallow.
Yes it will get,Timeframe 2-3 months
I will bet my money it will, it'll just take some more time then other OEMs, like it did with the marshmallow update, and if not, we can always go through the custom rom route and get it some time later in the future.

Custom ROMs are always better, everyday I look on cyanogenmod's github page for the 5x. Too bad no CM14 commitment yet :/
I've been hearing that yes the 5x will be getting the update with (Communication Gods willing) a 'more stock/softened version of EMUI". So I figure give it about 4 months after official release maybe a bit longer...

The reason for some other flagship devices not getting Nougat is that their processor wont support Vulkan API.
Since both Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 are powered by the Snapdragon 800 SoC, they are not likely to support Nougat.
According to Wikipedia's list of supported processors, Snapdragon 200, 208, 210, 212, 400, 410, 412, 600, 800 and 801 chipsets does not support Android N. Qualcomm said that the graphic drivers won't be released for the above mentioned SoC's.
Some of the prominent handsets affected by Qualcomm's decision are as follows
Samsung Galaxy S5
Samsung Galaxy Note 3
LG G3
LG Nexus 5
Sony Xperia Z3
Motorola Moto X 2nd. Gen
HTC One M8
OnePlus One
OnePlus X
Xiaomi Mi4
List of other affected prominent mobiles due to other Soc's are,
Galaxy A7
Galaxy A8
Galaxy S5, S5 Plus
Galaxy Note 4
Galaxy Note Pro
Meizu MX4 Pro
Galaxy A5
HTC Desire 828, 830
Honor 6
Honor 7
Huawei P8
Huawei Mate S
Since Honor 5X is running on Snapdragon 616, it will get Nougat for sure.
Here is the list of Vulcan API supported Soc's from Wiki (Vulcan API - WIki)

Hello everyone
I made this thread to discuss if Note 8 is going to have the Android 10 Update whether officially or unofficially.
OfficiallySamsung has updated its update policy so that devices should get 3 major updates, but this updated was made after the Note 8 was released. so this may not be the case with our Note 8.
After some search I found a post on MSPoweruser, you can check the post yourself, that the S8 is planned to have the Android 10 officially, and this was said by the Samsung customer service agent.
The Samsung agent said:
Good day Herr Garde,
Thank you for contacting us to the Samsung customer service. Regarding your request for Android 10 I like to inform you. Do not worry. It is planned that also the S8 the android 10 update should get. When this Exactly, I can give you now do not say yet. Therefore I ask you still a little patience. If you have a concern again have, please feel free to contact us!
UnofficiallyI did find a lot of S9 Plus port roms for Note 8 on Android 8.0 and Android 9.0 so is it possible to have an S9 or S10 with Android 10 ported to our Note 8 devices?
Join the conversationI have created a Telegram group to discuss any thing about our beloved Note 8 and share the latest news easily so if you're interested you're welcomed to join the group via this link : https://t.me/Exy8895Chat
If you have any suggestions or any news please tell me
I personally don't think it is likely. And no one should pin their hopes on getting official Android 10.
Rumours are just rumours.
Me feeling we deserve it is a different matter though ?.
I have a S8+, but yeah a thing that it's probable is a S9/S10 ROM port (highly more possible S9/S9+/N9 since it's more similar to the S8/S8+/N8 than the 10 lines), for example S7 have OneUI ported (Android 9.0) with a NFE Port, and it's the same team that ported S9 roms to S8/S8+/N8 (LightExyKings).
Now, when? probably not soon, the devs have to do their things too so I guess it will take some time to make these ports, if, they're possible in the 1st place, we just have to wait sadly

Yeah actually I don't we would get this update officially cuz Samsung never do
But as you said we really do deserve this update specially after giving back our trust in the Note series after what happened in the batteries and so on...

I made this thread at the first place to get the attention of people who would really love to have the Android 10 update so devs can start porting to our Note 8, unfortunately this means we will have to root our devices and I'm a big fan of Samsung Pass and other Knox based apps which gonna stop once you root. I hope the update is worth it and the also comes out without bugs.
Yeah, it will properly be a S9 port due to its similarities with our devices hardware but it will be very good to have a S10 port tho.

Yeah, in my case since I've never S.Pay or S.Pass it didn't affect me much unlocking bootloader and such, since well all the other knox based apps works (S. Folder, S. Health, etc), but for example after the sec patch ends for the S8/N8 Line (aka 2020), the only way to maybe, taste Android 10 or OneUI 2 (if it gets ported), will be via unlocking bootloader, TWRP and etc
The worst thing here is that Samsung drops the support of a phone that was, and even now it's still expensive as new, with just 2 years of support of updates and 3 years of sec updates, meanwhile the iPhone 7/7+ that was the competitor of the S8/N8 and it was released earlier, will get updated to iOS 14, 15 and possibly 16, aka support until 2023...
Really let's hope some devs can port a ROM haha
EDIT: to add that even Note 8 users got it worse since it was released when Oreo was already available, but Samsung still released it with Nougat and only updating it until Pie

I don't really know how porting roms works but I think even that's not possible because s9 has different chipset so therefore it isn't compatible.
As far as i know there aren't any other devices with exynos 8895 apart from s8/s8+/N8.

As far as i know there aren't any other devices with exynos 8895 apart from s8/s8+/N8.

Take it as a Custom ROM, probably if they manage to port it, it will have bugs like non-stock based custom ROMs at first
Anyways, the most probably thing is newer LineageOS (Like LOS 17, 18 for Android 11.0, etc), but not OneUI 2.0, 3.0, etc ported sadly
S7 had it easier since it had the same chip that NFE that got Pie, but if you search a little in the S6 xda forum, they managed to port a OneUI ROM from Note 8, but it has various bugs, like no HwC, etc

Yeah, in my case since I've never S.Pay or S.Pass it didn't affect me much unlocking bootloader and such, since well all the other knox based apps works (S. Folder, S. Health, etc), but for example after the sec patch ends for the S8/N8 Line (aka 2020), the only way to maybe, taste Android 10 or OneUI 2 (if it gets ported), will be via unlocking bootloader, TWRP and etc
The worst thing here is that Samsung drops the support of a phone that was, and even now it's still expensive as new, with just 2 years of support of updates and 3 years of sec updates, meanwhile the iPhone 7/7+ that was the competitor of the S8/N8 and it was released earlier, will get updated to iOS 14, 15 and possibly 16, aka support until 2023...
Really let's hope some devs can port a ROM haha
EDIT: to add that even Note 8 users got it worse since it was released when Oreo was already available, but Samsung still released it with Nougat and only updating it until Pie

For me as a Samsung user and all my devices are Samsung products (Note 1, S3, Note 5, Note 8, Gear S3, etc.) I always liked how Samsung had new futures before other companies but I think this have changed after they are giving us 2 years of updates ( on the update policy) and actually only 1 year of updates in real life as you said Android 8 was already available and released before the Note 8 was but they decided to release it with Android 7 instead which is 1 year update to One UI 1. They also almost did the same thing with the Note 10 as it was released with Android 9 while Android 10 is available. One the other hand Apple have been supporting the iPhone 5s till the last year with updates with is actually good for a phone thats 5 years old and its battery is getting bad aka its performance where you really need to upgrade to new phone at this point. I really hope Samsung learns before they lose customers and I really hope more to get they Android 10 update without losing much specially Spass cuz I do really love this device, it has a good Design and performance and mine is still new to upgrade now...

I think they would be able to port it from S9 but its never gonna be stable or even close the an official rom.
I think we would see a LineageOS 17 or 18 also but this doesn't solve the One Ui cuz its hard to port. (its not that stable and we will miss some futures from Samsung) if I'm gonna have a stock Android running on my Galaxy I would go rather and buy me a Google pixel or One plus better at least its gonna be more stable as its official and we are gonna have the updates way more faster.

They will never port a stable version or at least close to an official rom due to the hardware incomparable-ties which will probable give us the choice to continue using is with One UI 1 or use the ported rom and get used to these bugs or upgrade or phone which Samsung wants us todo but if I'm gonna do this I'm gonna find a company like OnePlus or Apple cuz I'm not gonna do the same thing again with a S10 or Note 10 after they don't update it...
The S7 was actually easier cuz of the Note FE which is actually the Note 7 and remember Samsung always make the S and Note the same Chip set each year like the S8 and N8, S9 and N9. but as the Note FE was late it got its update Support father than the S7 (which is capable of running Android 10 One UI 2 until now but Samsung doesn't want to update it as well).
Android Q/10 will be ported quite soon but neither N8 nor S8 will see original firmware from Samsung.
They will be able to bring the functionality of the S pen
there's no android 10 official rom for s8 and note8 by samsung schedule.....(crying~~)
Apparently the will not do an update to 10 for the S8 and Note 8.

The prize will be one HUAWEI P40 Pro
Many consider the Huawei P40 Pro to be the best photography phone on the market right now. TIPA WORLD AWARDS nominated the phone as the best smartphone for photos, thanks to the amazing camera technology featured on the device. The P40 Pro has a 50MP camera with a 1/1.28 inch ultra vision sensor. It can take in a great deal of light which means photos in low-light situations look amazing. Combine this with the real-time depth-sensing camera, and you can create professional-level bokeh effects in your photos.
Use the 100x SuperZoom array to get detailed shots of objects far away. Choose between the 3x optical zoom, the 20x hybrid zoom, or the 100x max zoom, for the best zoom camera in any smartphone.
The Huawei P40 Pro also comes with a 40MP ultra-wide cine camera. This camera features a 1/1.54 inch sensor, ultra low-light video, ultra slow-motion video, telephoto video and 4K timelapse. It’s a feature-packed cinematic video camera designed to give the user all the tools they need to get the perfect shot.

XDA will never compromise its journalistic integrity by accepting money to write favorably about a company, or alter our opinions or views in any way. Our opinion cannot be bought.
I would like to have more details, from an end user's standpoint, on how to access the apps that are absent from the Huawei App Gallery, and whether there will be some workflow to be able to get them working on recent Huawei phones.
I would like to know how will they continue to build their ecosystem compared to Android. Also, what kind of alternatives they are willing to support for the users to load other roms in case their solution does not live up to expectations.
I want to see a live Harmony OS mobile device along with Huawei taking on Android in a big way..
I would like to see what will happen with unlocking bootloader in future huawei phones.
Official use of custom ROMs
I would like to see Huawei find a way for us to officially use custom ROMs without root (since they Don't use gms) as a way to attract geeks and provide a truly brilliant software experience with the truly amazing hardware experience. Imagine that
I would like to see if Huawei have any plan to enter the recent craze of gaming phones and how they would support gaming phones with their new HMS Core 5.0, HarmonyOS and EMUI 11. Also, what kind of flexibility and dev-friendly commitments they will offer to the developers compared to their rivals while building apps on AppGallery platform.
I would like see Tablet Edition OS based on EMUI or Harmony OS and at least software update support for three years.
New Huawei OS
I would like to know what Huawei does different from Google and Apple ecosystems, that would make it unique to me to use it over them? What will you bring to the table that will make us jump to that bandwagon?
In addition to everything described I would like to know about the strategy for saving game data in the cloud, participating in early access or beta testing apps, improving developer feedback by encouraging developer efforts.
I want to see the launch of Harmony OS in some Huawei Smartphones and more investment in the AppGallery
I am expecting a better support in software upgradation. atleast for 3 years.
I'm waiting for harmony os
I would like to know more about the apps that I would have to use instead of the google apps/android ecosystem and how it would change my cellphone experience.
Would love to see Harmony and the new ecosystem Huawei is trying to create. Also, for how long are they going to support it, so we don't have to purchase new devices for new updates or whether they would allow custom mods to be made easily.
I'd like Huawei to announce they will support bootloader unlocks so that we can develop custom Android ROMS for them and port alternative OSes like UBports and postmarketOS to them.
Given the current situation, I would like to know what steps Huawei is taking to ensure they have as many of the mainstream apps as possible on their app store.
I would like to know how Huawei could possibly give developers more rights, like bootloader unlocking. I would love to see us being able to install play services or microG whenever necessary, without strange "backups".
However, it would be nice to know if Huawei could free Android a bit more, as many features became proprietary in the last years with google. Who needs open source android when almost every app needs to rely on non-standarized proprietary services?
I want to see Huawei talk about their plans for the future, whether its a completely new os or a new phone with innovative technology (possible a phone with an under-display selfie camera?).
Hopefully they come up with a new os though, competition is always good
As there is a new BMW M edition of the S23 ultra which has an amazing boot screen, live wallpaper, and theme. Is there a way we can add the same to our normal S23 ultras? The BMW M edition theme does look really awesome.
This is a heavily customized telco phone. The theme is just eye candy for the heavily bloated ROM. You may get the theme from the galaxy store but not the boot animation.
BMW should spend less money on marketing gimmickry and more money on exterior design. Their recent creations look hideous.
where I can find this BMW theme for the S23 Ultra, in Galaxy store I can't find them
It wont be available in Galaxy Store, and even if it does - It will be missing the essential content such as the Tones and Boot Animation.
If someone can find the CSC of the ROM, maybe we can dump the firmware and extract the content out.
If you can find the Cover, You have the complete thing.

How come the E46 has an aggressive chassis? From the internal structure it doesn't look that sturdy. Neither from the crash tests.
BMW is not for everyone. I mean the Samsung theme but the cars too.
I have a Е87 130 with 3l 6 cyl. almost 300 PS manuals 1400kg very very low and hard suspension. But it have 4 doors and it is some kind of... family friendly And more important Dady friendly. And more important is not a SUV and is not a Toyota.
