Won't be long!? We still haven't seen a 4.1.2 and the i9300 has had it for quite awhile. I do have hopes though.
I said hopefully. And don't rain on my parade. :fingers-crossed:

This can't be ported to work on our devices?

Anything is possible. But that would most likely be a ridiculous amount of work.

I'd rather wait...

The problem with the 4.1.2 update has multiwindow. We have a different processor in US phones which is making it difficult to get multiwindow to work properly. Im not saying its impossible but I feel like that is the hold up with US carriers. And it may even be they end up releasing 4.1.2 without multiwindow because of it.....

Meh. I'm really thinking about possibly trying to eBay my carrier unlocked GS3 when the GS4 comes around. I know it's apparently being shown on the 14th... but who knows when it'll actually be available after that.

Who said we'd ever get 4.1.2 ?

My guess is that we'll never see 4.1.2 on our S3 but that 4.2.2 is in the works... ;)

Im speaking from what ive learned from trying to port over the note 2 rom. It has a exynos processor and our US version does not. Im not sure what the note 1 has as far as it having the same processor as our s3. But I would love to try and port it once released and see if it would work.

actually it has a lower processor....

I own both.

it has an msn8660 snapdragon with adreno 220. ( the US and Canadian variant anyway)

ps I'm running galaxymod 14.1 without issue so just because you haven't been able to get multiwindow working in no way means it is not possible.

Synergy ROM in the development section has Multiwindow. I tried it yesterday and it worked great...although a few other issues made me switch back. I don't think the processor is the issue.

Synergy is a Verizon or Sprint base one I cant remember which. And im not saying its impossible for us to have multiwindow what im saying is it will need to be totally reworked to run on our phone as we have a dual core processor and the note 2 has quad core.
And I believe the different processor or maybe the kernel has a lot to do with why you haven't seen a ATT based note 2 port. Ive been working on one for quite sometime now and can only get it to partially work. So its not impossible but its not as easy as you may think and thats why I think its taking US carriers longer....
