UPDATE SEPT 14th :
My email have been replied by Charles last night (Charles is Sr Product Line Manager at Broadcom). This is the screenshot :


He says :
"Arby
I’m still confused since the BCM2763 is not in this Samsung device. Your information is not accurate, please advise where you got this information.
I am still reviewing with my colleagues regarding driver release.
Regards,

Charles"


SO WHAT ??
I send him this screenshot to make him sure that our device is Using Broadcom Videocore IV or BCM2763.
I take this screenshot using Quadrant Standard, Antutu Benchmark, System Info, and NenaMark


I'll do my best. Lets pray together..

Subject: Driver BCM2763 for Samsung Galaxy Young
"Dear Broadcom,
I am a representative of the users of Samsung Galaxy Young from XDA. We want our device can be developed, but we are constrained by the driver from Broadcom.
Can you release drivers for Samsung Galaxy Young?
Bcm21553 CPU and GPU bcm2763

We hope Broadcom could release the drivers soon.
Please do not ignore this email. Give us the answer.
Thank you"

"Sorry before.
I am a representative of the users of Samsung Galaxy Young from XDA. We want to develope our Samsung Galaxy Young GT-S5360 to AfterMarket ROM.
As we know that GT-S5360 used chipset Broadcom bcm21553 wich has GPU bcm2763. The developers are hardly to develope this device caused of graphic problems on Aftermarket ROM.
So that we ask for Broadcom to release GPU Driver BCM2763 for us to develope it.
We have sent feedback to Broadcom but still got no respon
I know you are nice and smart guy. Help us, Please
We are like beggars who beg via Facebook, Twitter, Sending petition and Feedback just hope Broadcom release the drivers. In fact, we also contacted samsung to talk to Broadcom, but no results, how ironic :'(
Please guys, we just want to grow
Thank you."

"Hi Arby
There is misalignments in your communication. Why do you say the BCM21553 has BCM2763 GPU Driver?
I will review this request with my colleague but it is unlikely this is something we will release.
Thanks,
Charles"

The most important thing is THE PETITION. Please submit the petition as much as you can. Because, if until Sept 13 there is no confirmation from Broadcom, We will DECLARE THE PETITION to 4 Broadcom Principals in 4 different country.
Because with submitting the petition, percentage of success could be 85%.
===========================================================================================================

Yesterday we just got message from Yanuar Harry (Squadzone) that he want to giving back the SGY that we have given to him, because Broadcom won't release the Driver. So, CM7 will never be on SGY.

Support us to force Broadcom to release the Driver for our device. Because w/o driver, we will not see CM7 and other Aftermarket Rom in our device.

How?

1. By submitting the petition here http://www.change.org/petitions/bro...k&utm_source=share_petition&utm_term=27816658. Just fill out your name, email, and a bit of comments.

2. Follow our twitter @Forum_Gyoung and make a twitt to @Broadcom wit hashtag #prayforBroadcom

3. You can send feedback to Broadcom http://www.broadcom.com/contact/feedback.php

4. Ask Samsung for help to talk to Broadcom to immediately release the driver http://www.samsung.com/id/info/contactus.html

If our force in cyberspace has not been responding by the Broadcom until October 6, 2012, then we will act immediately from the REAL WORLD!
GATHERING JABODETABEK #4 will Perform Demonstration demanding release of Broadcom drivers. Forces of the real world will be shared via Youtube, Facebook, Twitter and other Social Media. And I hope all Galyoungers in XDA will do the same thing. It’s for all of us.

C’mon Galyoungers, we must go on.
For problems like this, I will be in the front line

This is the latest email I receive from Nick. Good news
I will update the thread later.

" Dear Arby,

My name is Nick Lambourne and I look after MultiMedia and Android porting for Broadcom baseband chips, based in California.

Thanks for reaching out to us – Broadcom is a keen supporter of the open source community and are actively interested in seeing our SoC’s used by the community. Most recently, the Raspberry Pi has been a great success in and previously, items like our WiFi open source push have been well received by Android ROM builders.

Please understand that we run an extremely busy ‘ship’ at Broadcom and I hope you can excuse our delay in getting back to our customers ‘customers’. I have only just become aware of this request, through your contact here and then checking up on twitter for the #prayforbroadcom campaign then a longer search into XDA forums communications.

With regards to your request, I would like to start an open dialogue with you and the community on a public forum to find out what exactly you need and work with our engineering team to see how to resolve this request. Can you point me to a place where I can start a thread on this request? XDA or cyanogen?

Thanks,

Nick."
