Is grand good? - Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Hey friends
I just wanna knw...
For me grand is a awesome smart phone but there are very few development, just few roms, mods and just some great developers like balli, chotu and few more( sorry I forgot names) there even I a low end phone like galaxy mini (galaxy pop) and micromax canvas 2 ( mmx a110) has a lots of custom roms and mods and alot of developers interested.
I have both smart phones too and there are many roms like cm7 cm10 cm10.1, miui4,miui5, lewa os,pca and many other
So why our sweet and be loved smart phone grand has very slow development???
Sorry if I made any mistake

For me Custom roms is just extra advantage .... but I would be very very happy even if there wasn't any custom rom for my beloved grand.
Who cares if there any custom rom available or not ....
stock rom is the best .... if u know how to make 100% use of it.
Its just my personal saying ...

Yes it's true stock rom is best. But still XDA is all about development.
I think balli is the lone active developer in our forum. More over Grand is in low activity devices. I think somehow it's true.

bro you should be happy that we have few but very good dev's
we got our own section in xda
there are hundreds of devices that are waiting to get rooted after years
micromax a110 have many roms cause all Chinese phones are almost same, where roms are easy to port
but for grand devs have to make too many changes work harder, even when porting s2 rom like cm10.x
so be happy with happy with what you get rather regretting for nothing
when you're at some good place people will not ask what rom you're using but device , brand
what will be your choice a piece of just sh*t on cherry top of it or cake????

Bro I also my grand thats why I choose it and I think a good smartphone must has lots of development,
M not talking about stock or custom roms only its about all development
And as I said m using galaxy mini tooo this small smartphone also has tooooooooo many roms mods scripts and many more development and getting new ones day by day.
Even my galaxy mini got a last update of 2.3.6 from Samsung but I used android 4+ based roms like cm 10.1 miui 4, paradroid etc in my love galaxy mini more thn 1 year ago
BDW balli is really a cool developer for grand
Thanks balli and chotu for such development nd mukesh and simplyanin for ur continues help

Best phone
galaxy grand is the premium segment phone supporting all the features of android. other phones like micromax or other china based phones did not support various sensors and supports only basic 2-3 sensors such as light sensor and proximity sensor.
i have used other android based devices of non branded companies. even also samsung s duos irritate me some times when it works slow or get hanged.
so far there is no single issue in galaxy grand to irritate.
it is enough for me to root the phone as 4.1.2 (currently using 4.2.2) is much stable and sufficient amount of ram is free for user.

Its a new phone ... give some tym for development ...

Development of CyanogenMod 9 for Galaxy Y (Android 4.0.3)

Are there any Devs who are developing CyanogenMod 9 becaus I am looking xda threads from a November but till now i have not found any one found developing CyanogenMod 9 for Galaxy Y.
We need ICS and CyanogenMod 9 together for galaxy Y.
Galaxy Y has better specs than Galaxy Mini or Pop.
The same time to port unofficial CyanogenMid in Galaxy Mini or Pop is just going to pass. I have read that the kernels are developed for Galaxy Y just the porting time is left. Please if there is any Dev port ICS and CyanogenMod to Galaxy Y
Tough luck. Looks like everyone's busy for the custom kernel. Ports will be of later priority. Even the CM7 hasn't been ported yet.
dude custom kernel will help in the development of cm9 or 7 whatever thats why the devs are focusing on custom kernel
cheers !!7

You are right Buddy
Now kernels are there which can be overclocked up to 900 MHz
See my blog post on my website
FreshNewsArea.com
Galaxy Y is stable till 900 MHz but it becomes unstable after it.
Unofficial cyanogenmod 7.2 RC1 has bee ported from galaxy ace to galaxy y.................................merrock has posted it in android developement section of galaxy y.................it has many bugs .....it will be fixed in RC2 release...

most important even the gsm network is not working but still this is a huge step in the developement of our beloved sgy cheerss....
yeah,
i would say, just make a group and do work on currunt cyanogen 7 to make it stable,
by this way, we can get 9 also.
its better if someone make saperate thrd for developing it, and i am ready to be a volunteer for feedback.
vivekkalady has fixed many bugs
1)camera (not completely)
2)gsm signal
3)audio
4)1% battry bug fixed
5)packet data works
press thanks if i have helped you
here
its not only the processor and ram has to decide a phones capability,but also th emanufacturer and performance ofthe gpu , as you can see not all games are optimised for y's gpu and the manufacturer doesnt sees to be havin the idea of releasing drivers for ics while drivers for adreno 200gpu for ics are released a month back. but there are some very good roms for galaxy , in my opinion creed v2.5 seemsto be the best ,you can get that from here
IT TOOK ME A LONG TIME TO FIND THIS AND I DONT THINK YOU WOULD BE REQUIRING EVEN A FRACTION OF IT TO CLICK THAT THANKS BUTTON,WOULD YOU MIND SPENDING THAT FOR ME.
Let the bugs of cm7 be fixed first.. Then hope for cm9

[Q] CM7 developement

hey guys, the last months i've seen almost 4 topics about developing (such as Maroc&Razor, Motafoca, Androhacker etc...) why doesn't anyone of those combine and form 1 single team. I think it will be much better than 4 seperate teams.
And 4 different ROMS are better than 1. Everyone is working with someone else at the moment.

agreed. if people having options they will try rather then using one......
I agree with OP.. unity is the strength here.. they would hv developed it faster if they worked together.. although there can be major clashes over the the concepts.. as some strongly support some issue some don't at all!
But the point is for the sake of the dev.. they might consider sharing what they hv achieved so far.. like so far the one by razor083 is very much working.. but with lot of bugs.. if they try they can make it work! instead they r building it again separately! They should only do dat if there is nothing to be done on this port by razor083!! in dat case they should proceed from source again! but atlst they should take a look at it!!

Now im confused
nope.. it is from the source.. He also said "Its from source
I built it"..
No 3G, no Wifi, and no audio. Now thats not something I would flash. Waiting for a stable bug free version with crossed fingers. xP
OP is right: We (developers/themers/porters) should work together to make a fully working cm7 and cm9. Not all the bad roms which all get discontinued.... PM me if you want me to work with you!

Why concentrate only on high end devices??!!

hello,
I am a sad owner of galaxy ace plus..I bought dis mobile 3 months back when it was released..I thought there will be lots of custom roms releasing in time for my ace plus as galaxy ace has lot of roms..
But unfortunately there are no good roms(there are roms but not good ics or jb based)..really disappointed because of this..
only relief is that official jb is supposed to release for ace plus..God knows when..
P.S- xda guys..can you please tell us d reason for completely ignoring ace plus?? there is not a separate forum also fa ace plus when you ve opened a forum for s3 mini before its release oly..!!
even d lower end phones like galaxy y have got separate forums..

If you want a forum for your phone then put a request in the New Device Forum Request thread.
As for development - if the guys who like to develop ROMs don't buy the phone then you won't get much development - and most of them like to concentrate on new, shiny toys
If Jellybean is released then it will give users more reasons to buy it (making the phone more popular) and give developers something more tempting to work on, both in terms of code development (JB instead of being stuck on GB) and user acceptance (potential donations).

XDA as an entity adds forums for devices with sufficient mainstream acceptance. The Galaxy Ace Plus is frankly a "nobody" in the market for about 99% of the regions in the world it is sold in.
Developers here tend to develop on the best handsets (why would they use a Galaxy Ace Plus when they could use a Galaxy S3 which is vastly superior?), so the majority of major development is on flagship high-end devices.
There has also been a trend lately to try and avoid empty forums that offer "false promises" to users (despite the fact XDA itself doesn't do any development for any phone). As such, unless a phone is going to be a major success with huge development, we will not add a forum for it. The Galaxy Ace Plus (and other such phones) fall into this category, as they are of hugely limited interest to developers.

You seem to be forgetting that the galaxy ace plus could never hope to run JB!

That's not true, Snapdragon S1, 512MB RAM, 3GB storage is enough for JB. There are devices with same specs running ICS and JB doesn't have more hardware requirements than ICS.
You're wrong, its official they are developing ics for ace plus...
But sadly not my normal ace as its specs are nowhere near whats needed

Samsung Galaxy Grand Have A Great and wide Community

I Request to all developer Please Develope the custome Rom,,,,,,Sepecially Cm 10.2 for Galaxy Grand
We also know that it has dual sim and dual sim not working in CM Version >>>>>>> its not a matter or Issue
Please Create cm 10.2 because i used cm 10.1 developed by pw...

I donot know about the code so please work on CM10.2
Thanx in advance :good:
And those who want to cm 10.2 on the samsung galaxy Grand
PLEASE POLL
Please Participate in the Polling
Most Users Bought this phone because it has DUAL SIM Capabilities And CM ,Though Great No doubt, Can't Give that Function So If I wanted CM I could have bought a nexus not samsung device and My Favorite is touchwiz based custom roms and modify it to my taste as I don't want to lose functions I paid for.
My regards and that is my own opinion and also thnx for cm developers surely there is users who want cm like yourself

Unless Samsung opens up the source code for the dual sim function then it is almost impossible to implement it on CM no matter if you get a million votes. Dual sim is not a PURE ANDROID feature from which CM is based. Maybe some Chinese coder can come up with a solution we really don't know. Even MIUI which is Chinese does not have dual sim AFAIK.

+1
but happy with the performance of these ROMs developed by our Gr8 devs... i can sacrifice one sim for the performance.
You can sacrifice but not everyone can do this.
Specialy in those case who uses one sim for work and other sim for home use.

You are right.. Yesterday I saw kitkat running (cm 11) on galaxy s3..Which is a preview version.... Samsung galaxy phones are one step ahead because the features that came in kitkat are already embedded in android 4.2.2. For example transparent notification bar.,contacts search etc..

Is the proximity sensor ok ??
Hi there !
I installed this rom on my phone and noticed that it may be the proximity sensor which is leading to reboot.. because the sensor jumps in right where we answer an incoming call ( phone reboots at that time) and again when we make an outgoing call ( again.. the phone reboots at that point).. so is there any method to disable the proximity sensor so that I can test it ?? .. just an opinion because I felt that it might be the reason..
Thanks and Great Job Devs..
cm 10.2
i download cm 10.2 for galaxy grand from xda dovelopers site and flash it properly through cwm recovery. after booting SYSTUM UI always stopping …means popup window appers and say ” SYSTUM UI STOPPED WORKING “…
I was using stock android 4.2.2 before installing
