I have been hearing this from quite a number of mobile dealers that Samsung has stopped the production of Gfit....
If its true then it means less hardware support from SC :/:/
Yes this is true..production has stopped..
capture qrrchi
This is bad But, developers can support this device.
Where camera worked in ICS
Afaik, production stopped waaaay back in january, while the stocks got over by april...
If we believe what samsung says, our phone hasn't done well...
That's why g-fit has no successor (apart from the look-successor, the s3 )...while mini and ace, both have different versions like mini/ace plus, mini/ace 2, ace duos etc...
Though the plus side is, we have a cleaner forum
Ok. So the production has stopped. But samsung should carry on with firmware upgrades for our fit. I think samsung should make a special ics firmware for fit and similar low end phones as we have low ram memory and i have heard that ics requires at least 512mb ram.
Why would it do so?
If samsung gave galaxy s users an ics update, none of them would update to a newer phone...hurting sammy in sales...

Meh. It doesn't stop me from ordering it online.

apple was afraidd of the samsung galaxy tab 10.1 and 8.9 so he's doing a process in europe too but only in germany already

Everybody? If you're only interested in the processor, then by all means the Transformer2 is the way to go. I had a Qualcomm HTC Jetstream for nine days before I returned it and the UI was a bit faster but the Tab was equal in browsing and faster at video. If weight, form factor, build quality, support, audio and video codecs, display, and better drivers mean anything the G-Tab 10.1 is still a great choice. I have a Wi-Fi and am waiting for a 3G from the UK. For what a tablet's supposed to do the Teg is fine and Samsung's better optimized s/w helps its performance a lot.
Why post this in the Galaxy S II section? The more relevant thing to post would have been the changes Samsung has to make to TouchWiz in order for them to sell their devices in the Netherlands, as that directly affects the Galaxy S II(source: Samfirmware tweet). Galaxy Tab != Galaxy S II.

But of course you can get it in Germany too. Without problems. It is only not allowed for Samsung to import it
I don't think that this will matter so much to Sammy as they can make a variation of the tab 10.1 and it would be legal for retail sale in OZ. Plus Apple is scared of Samsung, i don't think that they will be able to stop every tablet that Sammy will produce in future. So this is pretty much a speed bump for Sammy

Maybe you're right. In any case, I've only tried out the Transformer1 and wasn't particularly impressed with its performance. Then again, might be possible that the SGS2 has spoilt me.
Why are no developers developing the Cyanogen mod 9 Android 4.x.x for the galaxy tab 7.0 plus WIFI only version? Its a real nice device and it will be awesome to have CM9 for this device. I believe the galaxy tab 7 plus is being ignored for the galaxy tab 10.1.
its all to do with the sauce codes...Samsung have them under wraps and are not letting them go easy also their is an issue with correct drivers etc... im sure when the codes are revealed their will be 100s of developers trying this baby out (wifi/3g) but in my opinion i think Samsung have kept this from us deliberately as they are launching the new g-tab 2 this is basically a crappy version of out tab but with ICS not honeycomb and buy them allowing development on our device before launch would kill the thrill of the new galaxy tab 2... disappointing i know
I read a article this morning that said almost the exact same thing you just did. the Tab 2 seems like a lower end device than what the plus is. Slower processor (or just underclocked) with ICS. I am perfectly happy with the tab plus.
- sent from my Galaxy Tab Plus!
my first priority is looks, build & battery backup. tell me which one has better looks & real battery backup?
I strictly don't "need" a dual sim...so the second sim will always be empty in either case.Selected this as its the best available in my budget...(btw, my budget was rs.15000 but extended to rs.16000 for this phone as it seems to be a good phone for my requirements)
thought about taking htc desire v but after using my friend's desire v i dropped the idea as the touch seems to be missed by phone for a second...but otherwise its a fabulous phone too(earlier was confused b/w desire v & samsung s duos)
I've used samsung wave 3 for a day (another friend's phone) its smooth fast....but the problem is with apps & games....really couldn't find much interesting apps & games on internet.(being bada 2.0)
None of my friend has galaxy s duos so couldn't use it personally (anybody using it?give me a personal review)
I even heard wave3 is going to get tizen os (intel & samsung tie-up which will enable android apps on this phone) but samsung havn't said anything from last 6 months about confirming this...last update about tizen was a prototype phone launched to test tizen for developers. m afraid that suppose i buy wave 3 n samsung dont come up with tizen update then i would left with just the default apps(like samsung always do...they don't care about their existing consumers & come up with new to the new consumers only)
Also, tell me, i know super amoled display is better but does the tft lcd on galaxy s duos matches it so some extent?
I'm really confused. please help me?
I am using a Samsung galaxy s duos that has ics out of the box. I am waiting for it to get updated to jb. even Samsung galaxy chat has been updated to jellybean which is having comparitively lower specs.Sony also updated its single core phone xperia j to jb?
so why there is no jellybean update in galaxy s duos?
will it ever updated to jb?
Here is the official JB update list of Samsung (which is subject to sudden change, but it's quite unlikely they will add any more devices - they usually remove devices that have not already got an update): samsung.com/us/support/SupportOwnersFAQPopup.do?faq_id=FAQ00050212&fm_seq=55187.
It's not only a question of device specs or performance; it's also a question of marketing relevance and development effort. The device manufacturers have to adapt the original os from google to their devices; and on top of that, they put their own software like Touchwiz, which has to be adapted to new Android versions, too. Then everything has to be adapted and thoroughly tested with the telcos. The whole process does not make sense from a economic point of view as soon as the sales of the device drop below a certain margin. Non-widespread devices will not get updates at all.
Sooner or Later ! Samsung will Suffer Like Nokia if I was not wrong, Because other companies are updating their mobile phone OS very fast but Samsung is moving even slower than tortoise , If you see the update list of all phones only major Phone like S5,S4 S3 & Note 2&3 are getting updated but other phones are struck at 4.2.2 earlier Nokia also behaving like same they putting older OS in new phone for example Nokia c3 which is release in 2010 but OS is S40 which is nearly 5 years old. Just look at the Mote E Specs its beat Samsung s2 plus in all aspects expect in camera . Dear Samsung please change your attitude other wise ............
say thanks to cm

let's say thanks to cyanogenmod community to help our devices to update :laugh:
The higher u go..the greater u fall
Applies to all sammy also.
I think (hope) Samsung is waiting for final 4.4 update from Google.
I checked Samsung updates for many device, usually there is no for example 4.0.1 or 4.1.1 or 4.2.1 updates they are 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 , ...
I wish final KitKat would be released soon then lots of Samsung devices will be updated.
Yes Bro
