    That’s all well and good, but where is Android 4.4.2 KitKat?! I don’t care for which SOC they release it, just as long as they do it soon!

    MediaTek sucks, will suck forever unless they release their sources like Qualcomm does -_-

    MediaTek should release sources so that all mediatek phones can be running cyanogenmod

    they can start by releasing their Mediatek framework sources for the old chips like mtk6589 and new ones if they even want a chance…

    I actually have an interesting solution for the Mediatek sources situation.

    I think that Mediatek should have their own “Nexus” program. A phone with the best SoC that Mediatek has to offer, with the latest and great Android updated by Mediatek for at least two years. This phone shall represent what MTK SoCs can do, and proprietary blobs can be used for it in other phones (Hopefully!)

    just release the codes!

    I agree with everyone about the codes and it really is a big deal but apart from that mediatek has helped a lot of people gain access to the android world with capable though low priced devices which is very important.

    Old log is better. If the company does not want to be associated with the early impression of their company and it’s logo they should change the name and get a new logo to go with it now that they are successful.

    They should launch a quality assurance programme. Something like Intel did with ‘Intel inside’. Only phones with properly working GPS and full international frequency support would get the certificate and would be listed with full specs in a database on the Mediatek website.

      Best idea I have heard in a long time!

    Honestly, mediatek SoCs are great value for money, and even the entry level mt 6582 is great. The only thing that mediatek screws up is not providing aosp support/SoC sources. The day mediatek starts respecting the custom rom community is the day that they’ll truly have a shot at qualcomm’s hard earned crown.
