When the first Galaxy S (I9000) was announced by Samsung, I thought that this phone would at least get a proper respect, the deserved update. No, Samsung stop updating it since Galaxy S2.
This is my Samsung Galaxy S (photo above) which I have updated to Jelly Bean with Cyanogenmod. I have all my respect to Cyanogenmod team and their founder, Steve Kondik. They make Samsung Galaxy S Jelly Bean upgrade possible. Having your old phone new is like a magic.
Galaxy S was undoubtedly my last Samsung phone. The reason is very simple. Samsung is not one of those companies, that make me feel special, there’s no human touch and long lasting impression after purchasing their product. To me they are running touch and go or one night stand business. I can’t trust them for more updates.
Will I ever buy another Samsung phone? Yes and No; depend. I don’t think I have to elaborate, we change as we learned.

vendor warranty on your smartphone already end? ) If there is nothing to loose its okey to upgrade to non-official firmware, as for me there is no cyanogenmod firmware for my LG phone ( and i dont see a point to change ), as for Galaxy Tab2, i think i better wait until warranty expires 🙂
Good news for you…
CyanogenMod do have nightly build CM for LG Optimus Me (P350)

I guess it not Jelly Bean 🙂
Its gingerbread (2.3) official firmware is 2.2 i think, so not really a point to update to unstable nightly build. And you know, i dont really want much from a phone 🙂
Now that I have iPad Mini, I get the feeling I don’t need a smartphone. The thought cross my mind sometime.
7″ tablet is not much bigger than modern smartphones and can fit in a handbag, while a phone can be really small and lightweight and easy )
10.1″ tablet is too big, and still cant replace a laptop in functionality 🙂
