So everybody, Which next "Nexus" Chipset do you think will be most developed for? In terms of custom ROMs etc.

I want to buy a phone that has proper CM10.1 support. The SGS2 Exynos chip has very poor support and CM does not even want to develop it anymore because of Samsung's lack of support. CM10.1 is very laggy. The OMAP version on the other hand is well supported by CM10.1.
Is the Tegra 3 the same as the Exynos or is it well supported?
Dear Mr. Steven B,
The situation with updates depends on several aspects.
If the update has not been released by Google for this type of processor, will not be released officially.
Best regards!

-.- They are unacceptable google and Samsung. Τhe one over the other (Sorry for my English)
That's a load of bull. There are MANY devices out there with the same processor that have lollipop. This one's all Samsung.
They really don't want to release it.
Fortunately, we have great developers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-neo/development/p-motion-rom-ll-t3257790
We must wait untill the bugs will be solved.
been this rabbit hole before. you will never have a custom rom with no bugs. EVER
Samsung said the s3/s3 neo are not powerful to handle TW Lollipop, dafuq? The HTC HD2 is a windows device and has a working port of marshmallow ?. So Samsung is forcing us to buy a new device to get updates. I read that 50% of Samsung phones can get lollipop but only 5% received it -_-
They're ridicolous! There are many devices that are less powerful of our S3 Neo and they've got Lollipop. The only answer to all this is that they're forcing us to buy new Samsung phones, of course.
Hello all,
I am quite interested in this phone cause I am searching for a Nexus 6 successor and I depend on wireless charging. Sadly there are no high end smartphones which will deliver this feature anymore.
Therefore I have two questions:
1. At this time there are two threee custom ROMs for the exynos variant and no for the snapdragon. Will that change?
2. How likely there will be an AOSP ROM and what version (snapdragon or exynos) will suffer most from bugs then?

Fairly certain the note 7 has wireless charging buddy.

I know, that is the reason I am asking two questions about ROM development and advice about choosing snapdragon or exynos
Ah I'm sorry I misunderstood. I can't speak for the snapdragon but I have the exynos and it's awesome. Excellent battery life and no heat issues. Sure I have read that the exynos is better for rooting but haven't looked into it in depth as I'm happy on stock for a while. I'm sure someone will be able to help soon.
get an exynos, more development
My question is not directly related to the device, more to it's software and the developers working here - since the S4 is an Snapdragon 835 based, do you see it as a possibility to eventually port the rom of the S4 to other 835 based devices? I think it would be a compleling option, especially with OneUI (when it comes eventually), DeX and Linux on DeX.
Thanks in advance for any replies, sorry for the bit of off topic.
Hi dev,
Why aren't there many custom ROMs for samsung s20+ Exynos or s20 series devices?
I feel oxygen os 11 would look great on s20 series devices.
Is there any component of device causing no custom ROM development?
Well... I had an exynos Note 10+ and the development for that phone was pitiful and was why I sold the phone. Thinking of buying an S20+ but only if I see some active development or at least plans
Well as phones ar getting more expensive and rooting less viable, I really don't see a bright future for custom rom development on future samsung phones.

Agree, valid reasons for rooting are evaporating. With app based options offering solutions and Samsung making it more and more challenging it's hard to justify. Especially when one considers the prices for a top shelf device and a very real possibility you'll brick your smartphone. Firmware and CSC's are much more complex than 5 or 10 years back, it's not like the good old days when rooting was more straight forward. With that being stated much of the push for rooting comes from users who fail to investigate which device is best suited for their needs, even within the same model line.

Buy an OP phone if you like that, the S20`s have different hardware so most likely not possible.
