[Q] Please answer please

Hi xda developers , I am pleased to be here
I have only one question and hope to get an answer for it
you know the Samsung Galaxy S4 came with new Smart features like Smart Scroll , pause , etc ...
is these features related to the S4 hardware itself , or just something is concerning with it's software?
if that related to it's Hardware , so no way to port that to another android device like S3
but if that related the the Software , so all android devices will get the smart features which is the S4
the S4 android version is 4.2.2 as you know , and S3 has now 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 , so the software is the same
so why the smart features is not working on S3? I know the 4.2.2 is just leak for S3 and not official but at least has the same features of S4 except the smart features
the second thing is if tat related to the S4 front camera and the proximity sensor , so it must work on S3 because S3 has the two things
I sow in android 4.2.1 which on the Samsung update site GT-I9300 ILO I9300XXUFMB3 after I flashed it on my S3 when I long press the smart stay icon I get 4 features :smart scroll , pause stay and rotation
but scroll and pause is not working , why that?
and I found a custom rom in this nice site called "Glamour S4" with all S4 features , but just icons and text , not working.
so is that features will not work in S3 or what? because if it will not work , I will buy S4 , but if it will work, then when that and with custom rom or official ?
please help me because I am from long time ago I am searching for that
by the way!
some developers in Israel name" Umoove" talked about Eye Tracking technology and I watched a video which shows the eye tracking seems to smart scroll working on s3
and some other teal developed same technology called "TheEyeTribe" but nothing is out yet
so please answer me if it will run on S3 or it is not available now?
thank you
your post makes me think youre in the wrong forum. do you have a verizon S3 or an international version?
OK your post is confusing as you don't specify if you have the international S3 or the US version. All those features are for the S4 and possibly the note 3 so they won't work on any version of the S3 without a third-party app.
Well he's on the international s3 cuz he flashed the 4.2.1 ROM from Samsung and obviously didn't brick.
This is the wrong forum, but to answer your question, yes that is mostly hardware limitations.

[Q] Slide to wake/double tap to wake

Is there any kernel or rom that has any of such features? I already get used to it with my other devices and would love to have it on my Atrix 2 as well.

[Q] Samsung GALAXY Note 4 "Sde Key Panel" feature?

I currently have a rooted Note 2 with a custom ROM running a S5/Note 3 style OS, and i like the reduce size feature for one handed use at time but it's not the easiest to activate honestly, but I see ol' Sammy has made this easier with the Note 4, and was wondering if there is anywhere or anyway that I could get this feature on my device? or atleast something like it to easily activate the reduced size screen with one button click? I'll provide a couple links for those who may not fully understand what I am talking about.
~Thanks in advanced!

I was wondering about z5....but so many people are compaling about that device. And I have had a z5 in my hand, and it took awfull photos (low light). I was breaking my s6's back panel, BUT I re purchased the s6 yesterday again. I have tried the 6.0 with it, and looks promising ( I love the manual camera shutter sped control).
come back. this is a cheap device already, ($300-350), and there is non better on the market what have this huge amount of features like s6 (with 6.0 )
Why would you go back to a device where your main issue is the OS? That's just wierd.
Get a Nexus if you want AOSP.
The CM13 you are referring to in your OP is a TEST build and should NOT be used as a daily driver. Bugs, things are broken / not working.
Sounds like you might wanna research some other phones / brands before jumping back to a device your not comfortable with IMO.

im asking what about new firmwares, have them fix major galaxy s6 issues like ram management?
Samsung will release the gs6' sourcecode after the marshmallow release. This will make the custom rom community much more effective. Looking forward
Edit @renolzSry: I meant kernel sourcecode

Request : Galaxy Note Tablet Keyboard or similar ported

Hello everyone,
I'm not new with xda, because i had a motorola moto e and i used xda back then alot. But it broke and i got this phone the Note 1. What i really like is the productivity and the possibilities. I also saw a thread about the ported keyboard from the samsung galaxy note 8 keyboard. But unfortunatly the link is down, so my request was if there is someone maybe still having the keyboard file or maybe a similar keyboard. If not, no problem there's plenty other stuff to mod on my phone
