Mobile OS survey :)

[AlienIsGOD]

Since we have a new sub forum, I would like to know the OS ppl are running on their phones/tablets. Multiple responses for those who own more then one device.

I use a S4 with Lollipop 5.0.1 and a s4 mini with CM 12.1. My tablet runs Kit Kat 4.4.2

 

[Zakin]

Pretty much CM or a variant based on CM. It actually typically sways if I do or don't buy a model now a days.

 

[T.R.]

I'm still using the BlackBerry OS 5.0. It was released in 2009.

 

[Disparia]

Between the wife, kids, and I: 1 Android tablet, 2 iOS tablets, 1 Android phone, and 1 iOS phone.

Back when I had my Lumia 810 I preferred mobile Windows over Android at the time but with Android 5+ I can go either way with it, which usually means Android due to the large selection of apps and phones.

I like lollipop and up as well, although my s4 has a memory leak issue and my carrier doesn't intend to release an updated version (5.1.1)

what variant doesnt have CM? is official (not CM) 5.1.1 released to any other s4?

 

[AlienIsGOD]

Only cm 13 is out for s4, the download links for anything 12.1 are dead. Cm 13 has a few issues that I would rather not deal with. I intend to go CM when 6.0/cm 13 is more stable

Not sure where you're looking but I see live links for back to even CM11 on Cyanogen's very own download site, tried a few of the older ones and they seem fine. Not positive if the S4 is using a universal rom or not so I won't link anything for certain. But first result in google was their download repository if you've never been there.

Just for reference actually - https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=jflteatt You'll have to check the wiki if it's a universal rom though, that's the AT&T variant.

Eventually I'll get around to changing the s4 over to CM

 

[Jack1n]

I have an M8 running HD Rev 6.0MM with sense 7.

 

[GoldenX]

Both my tablet and phone don't support any ROM, only stock with modifications. Stuck on Android 4.2 on the phone and 4.4 on the tablet.
At the very least the tablet is overclocked.

 

[micropage7]

After many years with my old buggy GalaxyS4, I am glad I have decided to return to iPhone. Andriod experience is simply too buggy for me.

Nah. I had the international variation of S4 with Exyon processor and stock rom. Gee that was a pain in the butt. The battery never last through a day and the performance was pathetic. Samsung touchwiz was horrible.

I am just glad I don't have to deal with andriod anymore. On my phone I just want it to be reliable. I have to my PC to fill the urge of tweaking stuff.

 

[GoldenX]

Too bad Apple can't make something cheaper, imagine a $100 / 150 iphone. They would take a lot of Android's market.
I will still prefer Android, for the reason that it can dynamically compile code (run emulators), and they are dirt-cheap.

I have no problem paying full price as long as the phone is reliable. My first smartphone was Blackberry 8320. It worked great for the 3 yrs I owned it. Switched to iPhone4 and amazing experience. My next phone was S4. I bought into the hype of Andriod at that time and paid $620 full price for an unlocked international version of S4. Worst experience ever. Bad battery life, laggy interface, constantly missing emails and the mother f*cker proximity sensor was a piece of sh*it! 99% of the time my phone will go into blankscreen during call when I need to put in some numbers. It was a common issue with S4.

Last year I finally switched to iPhone6sPlus. Awesome experience so far. I will probably never go down andriod ally again.
