why? well, because development start when people like you (normal people) try to help, developers dont appear instantly.

The development has been slow due to a fairly locked down device.

I had a jar of "Instant Developer" (just add caffeine) on the shelf here, but it's way over its expiration date.
It seems that for some it's not enough what is done here. They didn't have "fun" for months trying to improve our Kindles and enjoying every small step we have taken ...
To me the greatest achievement has been to uncover the true potential of the machine without leaving the Amazon's design, by breaking down the barriers imposed.
I don't think that Jelly Bean is the goal to achieve for any android device if it implies losing the manufacturer's environmental benefits...I've been in CM10.1 and I definitely prefer Kinology, which includes all and many more advances from the last few months, while maintaining the benefits of Amazon OS.
I felt the original kindle needes a lot of help but this one is awesome with just root.

Maybe you should ask that question to Hashcode and Maromi who have spent countless hours unlocking the boot loader and developing the kernel which allows us GRATEFUL users to improve our Kindles. Just saying.

Hasn't Android supported multiple cores since GB? Pretty sure because I remember all the talk about it. I had the Atrix and it was one of the first dual cores.

I talk to my phone all the time, it's much easier. I use to only when searching for things but now that I have Google Now I use it much more. Most of the time if I am around somebody they ask me what kind of phone I have. I mean I wouldn't use it at a funeral and I don't go to church or Walmart and usually never the mall, I try to avoid mass social situations unless there is a DJ/producer I want to hear.

THIS THIS THIS! A battery is not a feature of the OS, and while making the OS more battery efficient is always good.. I want to see some advancement in the state of batteries, the phone has improved so much in the past few years it's crazy, the battery needs to catch up. I'm talking at least 3 day+ battery no matter the use in all devices.

pls also post the model (3g or wifi only) so as to avoid confusion with the post...

I know it, but I bought it when my laptop was out of commission due to HDD failure and by the time I got my HDD and realized I needed recovery discs and finally got it going again I didn't want to unlock my boot loader and lose all my game progress. So as long as I'm satisfied with stock I'll use my g'nex for flashing purposes

Just like a 'best ROM' thread, this is thread useless. You can easily see what ROMs are the most popular by looking at their threads in the Dev section and seeing the level of activity. Knowing that still doesn't tell you what ROM is best for you. Only you can decide that based on your own needs and usage.
Sorry folks.,
One of the big no-no's is asking which rom is best.
This, can only be answered by installing several roms, and deciding which is best for "You".
One can read the threads, and see which rom has the least issues, and also see what features are best for your needs.
WE can't make that choice for you. If we could, then there would only be "1" rom for all users, based on the highest amount of posts.
In the end, YOU have to decide.
Thread closed, in an effort to prevent flaming.

Oh I know grouper developing will continue. Sorry I'm not good at expressing myself in forums and threads as I tend to trail off. Its a fact that there are some ROMs and kernels that have been,well -abandoned- for lack of a better word. I'm just trying to thank those devs that have moved on for whatever reason. I had the first kindle fire and was actually surprised to see people dev.ing for Otter. Guess I need to brush up on my online communication skills. I've miscommunicated my point on more than one occasion lately. Think I'll stick to just downloading and let everyone else do the talking.

My main concern is that they usually only make significant UI changes with major numerical version updates. Since it's 4.4 and not 5.0, my thought is that there will be probably a few new features within more or less the same UI. That's not a problem, per se, but in my opinion the current Android UI is getting a little stale and could really use a refresh (especially the launcher). That's mainly what I'm hoping for in the next version of Android. I suppose we only have a couple months until we find out for sure though.

OH REALLY?
Please send me a link to a Sprint GS4 4.3 leak or ROM. The international and other GSM carriers have a leak which has been ported to the Sprint gs4, but this isnt from sprint. So how do you expect to have a 4.4 KitKat Official update to the Sprint GS4 in the next month or so if we don't even have 4.3 yet. It at least another 1 month before we get 4.3 official update. then another 2-3 months for 4.4 update. Which puts it in the Jan/Feb range. So do not tell me I am ignorant and stupid.
