    Looks like Samsung finnally listened to the developers of CUSTOM roms for Android devices.
    Samsung is going to discuss the issues around the missing source files for the EXYNOS processor.
    Samsung started to use their own processor since the Galaxy S. Because the Exynoss processor is quit special to Samsung. Samsung decided to leak not that much about their own EXYNOS processor.
    Since Samsung sold many Android devices, developers making CUSTOM roms for Android start to blame Samsung about the missing source files from the EXYNOS processor.
    Specially the makers of CyanogenMOD aren't happy with Samsung at the moment.
    One of the biggest developers for CyanogenMOD  (codeworkx) started to switch over to Sony.
    Lets hope for the Android CUSTOM rom community that Samsung will post the whole source information.

    We of SamMobile think samsung will do good to release these documents, because the Samsung community is the biggest of all android phones. And it is good to have a great community behind your products.
    Let's hope this time Samsung will actually release them, or they will loose a whole bunch of credabilty and users!!

    UPDATE: Flooding Samsung's media sources seem to work Codeworkx just been cotacted by Korea read this post from XDA. Need to say this doesn't say anything yet but it is a good step in the right direction.

    You know that bad press for samsung is our most effective weapon to make things changing.
    So if you want to make samsung to continue paying attention, you know what to do…
    Fight till you got what you want to have.
