Samsung releases source code for the Galaxy S III

When it comes to pleasing the Android developer community, Samsung has been ahead of the pack for a while now by giving out sample units to developers and making their phones generally easy to mess around with. They are also known for releasing the source code of their phones in a timely fashion and keeping with that tradition they have released the source code for the recently launched Galaxy S III.

The source code for the Galaxy S III is now available for download on Samsung's website. For now, they have only provided the code for the GSM international I9300 model but we're sure code for the other models will be made available once they go on sale.
To download the source code for the Galaxy S III, head this way.

LG LS970 to come with quad-core 1.5GHz Krait processor

It seems LG is working on a new flagship for Sprint – the LS970 that will probably retail as the Eclipse 4G LTE.

The specs are quite impressive – a Snapdragon SoC with a quad-core 1.5GHz Krait processor and Adreno 320 graphics, 2GB RAM and 16GB internal storage. It should pack a 4.67-inch 1280x768px LCD screen, a 13MP rear and a 1.3MP front camera alongside LTE capabilities.

The Eclipse 4G LTE is supposed to be just 8.6mm thin and weigh 142 grams with its 2100mAh battery, and the SoC is supposed to outscore every ARM Cortex-A9-based quad-core chipsets (Tegra 3, Exynos) out there.

Android : Gingerbread still king

Google just updated the Android version distribution charts. In April Android Gingerbread growth started to slow down, while the ICS market share nearly doubled.

The latest version of the Android OS - Ice Cream Sandwich a 4.9% share, up from 2.9% a month ago. We do wonder if it will manage to become the most widely adopted version before Jelly Bean becomes available.

Version	Market Share, April	Market Share, March	Change
1.5 Cupcake	0.3%	0.3%	0.0
1.6 Donut	0.7%	0.7%	0.0
2.1 Eclair	5.5%	6.0%	▼0.5
2.2 Froyo	20.9%	23.1%	▼2.2
2.3 Gingerbread	0.5%	0.5%	0.0
2.3.3-2.3.7 Gingerbread	63.9%	63.2%	▲0.7
3.0 Honeycomb	0.1%	0.1%	0.0
3.1 Honeycomb	1.0%	1.0%	0.0
3.2 Honeycomb	2.2%	2.2%	0.0
4.0-4.0.2 Ice Cream Sandwich	0.5%	0.5%	0.0
4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich	4.4%	2.4%	▲2.0

Versions 2.1 and 2.2 (Eclair and Froyo) saw a slight decline while the other releases maintained their market share.

DO NOT GO FOR ICE CREAM SANDWICH UPDATE. Gingerbread is still better and stable. Recently I updated my Sony Neo V to ICS. Sony had already informed on their blog about performance issues. Still I took risk to go for ICS. My Neo V got froze thrice. Nothing was responding. I have to remove the battery. This never happened for a single time when Neo V had Gingerbread. But with ICS it happened just in 10 days of time.  WAIT for stable build at least for Sony mobiles. Others I do not have any update.
