[Q] Mango on Galaxy Nexus

Hi All,
I have Samsung focus currently. I bought Galaxy Nexus for wife as her Birthday Present.She liked the phone but not the OS (Android - Ice Cream Sandwich) . Now I dont understand what to do . Do you guys think it is possible to load Mango on nexus? I am sure its not possible right now but once windows phone 8 is released we probably can port that to nexus as WP8 supports multi core? Please help me with suggestions.
And I found Android 4.0.1 hangs a lot even for simple functions like changing settings .
Please suggest what to do? I cannot sell the phone as I need to reduce the price by 3000 rupees (Indian currency ) for a 1 day old phone

If you ask whether is it possible to run Android? then the answer would be yes, it can be possible. But too much work based on Kernel development for making it boot. Non-Android devices like Samsung Wave, Nokia Lumia, iPhone etc. have the history to run Android, but was unstable and had too many bugs for using it.
So, if you couldn't find any Android port based on the Nokia C6-00, then it probably not exists.
So is there any rom for the nokia?

Well actually i wanted to test wp. I will search the forum and if i come across to any problem, i'll ask for help. Thx.
I can't find anything, so i'll do factory reset and it will be ok.
It would be possible
It would be possible if developers try to port on nokia .. It's like too difficult but not impossible as i already read about porting android on NOKIA N8-00 ..
I dont think that someone will spent his time to a 3-4 years old smartphone

I have so many old symbian phones, if only I could install Android on them to make them useful But too old!

Android 5 for Samsung S5 mini

Hi,
I'm looking to update my Samsung S5 mini to a custom ROM or an official one with at least Android 5, but coudn't find information about it.
Now I have heard about an update 5.1.1. from Vodafone and have a question. If my Samsung S5 mini device (Germany) has the PDA number G800FXXU1AOG2 could the update from Android 4.4.2 to 5.1.1. still work with the G800FXXU1BOL4 at:
sammobile dot com firmwares/download/64164/G800FXXU1BOL4_G800FVFG1BOL1_VD2/
And what does it mean "Country=Germany (Vodafone)" ? Will it only work with Vodafone or all SIMs including prepaid, just will have a Vodafone look?
The update would be even fine with an US user interface or language. The main thing is that it should work or being revertable

BTW: not that true for their mac book pro line
I can definitely not recommend Samsung devices for this very reason. Otherwise they would be really good. I decided against a Motorola only because of the exchangeable battery to avoid throwing away the phone after 2 years (or expensive replacement), now I have to throw away the phone due to very old and insecure software. Ugly.

Thanks for this good news. Do you know if the Galaxy S7 will soon get this new interface (with android 7.1.1 for example), or if we have to wait for the android O update ?

You're welcome. I also asked them few days ago will S7 get 7 1.1 Nougat and they told me: "YES. BUT WE ARE NOT SURE WHEN". I hope that they will bring it with 7.1.1. Also they didn't say with what version will S7 get new UI. If I find out I will let you know.

Google is set to release the next iteration of its Android OS Android O on 21 August which is the day of the US total solar eclipse. While we are just a day away from the launch, most of the smartphone manufacturers are now gearing up to provide the new update to their recently launched smartphones. As such, one of the top brands Samsung is also preparing for the update and is looking forward to providing Android O for its smartphones with its Grace UI on top which will be better optimized to run the software smoothly. While the company has been a bit slow in providing updates, hopefully, this time Samsung rolls out the update at a much faster pace.
Looking at Nougat, Samsung got the first updates out to the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge in China and the UK 143 days after Google released Android 7.0. The update took a grand total of 180 days to reach US shores, landing first on T-Mobile, followed by AT&T the day after and Sprint two days after that. Verizon hobbled across the finish line a couple of weeks later. -- What the actual f(*)ck, samsung?!
you might be right, mate!
Good news for s7 users. But android O is really worst than android N reported by some forums due to less root capabilites and different system structure.
