Not for the U.K.

The Samsung Galaxy S4 will launch in the United Kindgom without a new eight-core Exynos 5 Octa processor, the Korean company has confirmed. It will instead be equipped with a 1.9GHz quad-core processor that will play nicely with the U.K.’s forthcoming 4G LTE networks.

On Tuesday, several members of the CyanogenMod group — all from the team that develops for Samsung devices — confirmed that they would not be developing custom CyanogenMod ROMs for the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S4. The announcement led many to believe that CyanogenMod wouldn’t be coming to Samsung’s new flagship at all, but that possibility hasn’t been ruled out just yet.

CyanogenMod has since issued a statement on its Google+ page to say that it hasn’t ruled out support for the Galaxy S4 just yet, and it won’t be providing us with an official stance on the device until it launches.

One of the biggest complaints about Android, is that Google will announce a new version of Android, but then it takes over six months for that software to actually get on your phone. What gives?

The guys over at Gizmodo decided to talk to both manufacturers and wireless carriers to find out what’s the hold up. It seems like a software update would be a pretty straightforward process, but what they found was a myriad of problems that can take months to answer before your Android phone gets an update.

HTC has been forced to delay the rollout of its promising new HTC One. An executive for the company has confirmed that it now has difficulty securing certain components from its suppliers as it is no longer considered a “tier-one” customer.

If you’re a fan of CyanogenMod’s custom Android ROMs, then you may want to avoid the Samsung Galaxy S4 when it launches next month. CyanogenMod has confirmed that Team Hacksung, the group behind its Samsung ROMs, will not support the new flagship smartphone.
