dont you just hate it when Samsung has so many names for a single device?
anyways i was hoping someone could help me out
i purchased this phone recently samsung GT i8552,
i cant seem to find any custom ROMS anywhere over the internet or this forum.
believe me i used all types of search queries.
is somebody working on a custom ROM or should i try and learn how to make one?
and lastly i cant seem to understand why a quad core phone struggles with 720p HD video playback .
is it possible to remedy that by flashing a custom ROM?
thank you

Device too new?
I've been looking for custom ROMs for the i8552 this week. I think the device is too new to have custom ROMs (released May 2013), and has not elicited the level of marketing attention as the S4, S3 LTE from Samsung.
I sure hope that changes though. I chose this device over the Galaxy Express (i8730) for the mere fact that everything almost being equal, the Galaxy i8552 (or Grand Quattro as it's called in some markets) has a quad-core processor. It'd be a waste if no devs hacked up a ROM for this great value phone.
i think all users of this device should come together and form a thread.after enough users are there we can request xda for a forum..
I was wondering if a custom will allow this device to play hd videos smoothly.
if yes, then ill try building my own rom. Cuz I believe the adreno 203 gpu is atleast capable of 720p playback.
also, is it possible to decode the video using the cpu? That might make 1080p playback possible
thanks

problems installing balli boxer 4.2.2 rom
i have a galaxy grand and was trying to install Gennxt Rom by balli boxer on it.
upgraded it to leaked firmware 4.2.2 and downloaded the Gennxt ROM but the problem is when i try to install it through CWM it says installation aborted can any1 plzzz help me out with this.
Developers, give it a shot..!
Please don't make me regret for buying this phone. I only bought it because i thought that it's development will go on forever unlike its competitors Micromax A116 and XOLO Q1000.
Samsung provides the source code right? The other manufacturer's don't provide it, so development is limited.
Also, Samsung has a good service here(India) then it's counterparts.

you can't use the firmware or ROM of any other device on to your Samsung GALAXY S Duos GT S7562, it will end up in a dead phone which may not be recoverable by yourself,
though a working KITKAT version is available through Optional ROM that is Cyanogenmod 11.
here is the LINK
thought SIM will not work on either slots. currently Devs are working on it.
You may get a stable update after the Devs publish a stable Release.

I own that device. the ZTE Blade III Pro. I'm trying to port CM and MIUI for it. Hell of a work though. If you manage to make a working CM for Galaxy Core let me know because i'm stuck and MIUI porting and it would be a lot easier to port from a working device. HTC Desire X runs unofficial CM 10.1 build so you may try port from it. Nice work though :good:

Is the project active??
is op working on this?
I hope that it is. It would be great to see our core running CM Android 4.4.
Seems project not active ! Cyanogenmod is not a simple rom that can be complied by any one !!
We need experts . I will work on it after April
Sent from my GT-I8262 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
That would be great, but I have one question. Why after April? Are you going to get I8260 device then?
That'd be really great!
I was happy when I got the phone few months ago but got fast disappointed with its performance after a while.
From past experience (SGS2) I got good performance upgrade switching to CM.
thanks to anyone who's going to give it a try.
