I'm planning on flashing a dual boot Ubuntu/Prime 1.7 onto my TF shortly. I'm wondering if anyone can tell me if Polaris Office is still included? Also will I have any issues using the rom from the dev thread? I don't see any different versions like the regional variants there are for other roms, my TF was bought in Australia.
Polaris Office is included, and has been updated as per Asus' original 3.2 firmware.
Edit: I'm not sure if there are any known compatibility issues when flashing onto an Australian TF101. The Prime 1.7 ROM doesn't correspond to any particular version of the tablet, but it is based on the US ROM as far as I can tell, which would mean that it's missing keyboards/IME's for languages besides English. If you're a native English speaker anyway, it probably doesn't make a difference.
As a precaution, you might want to check your SKU before you flash. It's in your Settings app, in About Tablet, under Build number. If the build number starts with "WW_epad", then you may experience issues when flashing a US-based ROM. You might be better off in that case with just installing the basic root update, as there aren't many extra features in Prime 1.7 over the stock 3.2 ROM anyway.
I went ahead with it, no issues using Prime, it's a WW SKU. Looks like Prime is now a universal rom.

A few weeks ago, I purchased a Xoom with Wi-Fi only in Hong Kong while I was visiting. However, I did not know it was a HK Xoom until I did a OTA update to 3.1 H.6.4-20.
I would like to flash a US 3.2 or above using this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166106
To my dismay, it states that only 3.0.1 HK Xoom has been tested and working.
It seems that Motorola has not released the stock 3.0.1 version so I have no way of flashing it to my Xoom.
My question is, is there anyway for me to get a 3.0.1 HK ROM in order to flash a US 3.2 or above? Also, can I try the guide I mentioned above without flashing back to a 3.0.1?
Thanks

You are looking to unlock your bootloader and root so you can flash a stock or custom rom with the HC three point two update, yes?
There is a new universal root method that works on any Xoom, any model, any country.
If you root with this method you could flash the Tiamat Hammerhead Rom which will provide you with the three point two update. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1209341
Hi,
I looked everywhere and this device (Asus Transformer TF300TL) appears to be lost.
Anybody knows if TF300T roms work on it?
Anybody has one here?
Any ideas?
I appers to be pretty similar.
Hello
Rom differs between TL and T
Because of functions modem.
TL is really useful for the 4G

You will find some links at the end of my Index for tf 300 (click to my sig )
And that's right, it's a little part of all TF300 and especially for LTE.
I really don't if you will find one rom for your device.
Really sorry
So still no development for TL version?
I think the TL is the last device of this series, so it's normal that there's to wait some time before you can fine a well cooked ROM..

No custom ROMs for the TF300TL that I know of.
I believe the T/TG ROMS will KILL the LTE part of the TL modem (or possibly completely kill data capability...or worse)
Here is the Asus TF300TL update link:
https://www.asus.com/Tablets_Mobile/ASUS_Transformer_Pad_TF300TL/#support_Download_32
There is a bootloader unlocker, 2 jelly bean ROMs, and the kernel source available for download.
I manually updated the ROM from the Asus site - the OTA system update was not working on the stock ROM loaded.
The trick is to make sure to match the ROM download to the version of the tablet- US, WW, etc.
I have also gotten the latest TWRP to work on the TF300TL - I used the jb blob image for the German LTE TF300TG.
I assume the stock TF300TL image is mostly a TF300T but with a driver for the LTE radio built into the ROM.
If the radio device driver is included in the Asus source - it may be able to be merged.
Has anyone figured out a way to force the native android tethering?
The ATT tethering app keeps dropping connections- and has no options to customize.
I remember when the Nexus 3G (tilapia) first came out there was a way to expose the
android native tethering menu- maybe this has been disabled on the TF300TL stock.

Hey guys. I am just about to upgrade my old P6800 7.7 from ICS to a newer version of Android to give to my father. However it's a but confusing reading the development section trying to figure out which ROM has th least bugs and stability issues.
What I am looking for is the most recent version of Android possible with ALL features stable and working. It is for my technologically-challenged father so I absolutely cannot have him running into errors.
Can those who read this section regularly please point me in the direction of the most up to date, "bulletproof" ROM for this device?
Cheers,
Richdog.
Assuming youhave a P6800 ?
If your after all features stable and working for a non-techi, I wouldn't go past stock Samsung JB 4.1.2. You can use PC Odin program to manually flash with having latest USB drivers installed etc first. There are many guides around for that.
Firmware can be downloaded from sammobile.com or samsung-updates.com .
Although the DXMD3 firmware is released for SE Asia only, English is available if your Father uses that. The only possible bug you might encounter is that 5 GHz WIFI band may not work for some. It may be CSC related, but not heard of anything else that could cause major grief.
Best of luck
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I'm going to pick up a Note Pro 12.2 (SM-P900, wifi only) from Craig's List tonight for $150. It'll be my secondary device, in addition to my Galaxy S2 9.7" (SM-T813). I'll use it mostly for media consumption, but I'm also excited to experiment with this thing. I have a couple of questions:
I want to install a custom ROM. If I used Lineage, which version do I download? Based on what I've been reading, it seems that 14.1 is my best bet (1awifi). However, the builds are all nightly, not stable: https://download.lineageos.org/v1awifi . Do these builds tend to be pretty stable? Once you install such a build, how do you update it without having to start from scratch again? Also, is there a good primer? I'm not new to installing custom ROM, kernels, etc. per se, but it's been a while (not since the HP Touchpad---remember that one?).
Are there any other custom ROMs and/or kernels that are worth trying for the SM-P900?
I want to download a stock image, so I can always revert back to that. Which one do I download for the U.S. version of the SM-P900? Pages like https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note-pro/SM-P900/ don't specifically list a U.S. image. Do I use the one for Cellular South (XAR)? Or the one for Canada? Does it matter? Is there a good refresher on this, too?
Thanks!

I see I've been a bit lazy by not reading through all the information already on this forum. Apologies!
I'll spend some time going through what's already here and post any follow-up questions.
The only question that I still have is where to get the official stock ROM for the U.S. SM-P900 version.
Also, one more question: What's your preferred custom ROM: Lineage 14.1 or Resurrection Remix 5.8.5?

I basically bought an X50 Pro Player edition from AliExpress at a decent price for the UK (£414 inc DHL Shipping)
And because i know that this Player Edition of the phone only seems to be available for the Chinese market at the moment and might not even get released in the EU or anywhere else globally.
I assume that the firmware on it will be the CN version and there possibly wont be any other versions available for this specific model RMX2072.
The main differences as far as i know on this model compared to the normal EU specced X50 pro's is that this edition has LPDDR5 and is using UFS 3.1 instead of 3.0, and that the front and back camera setups are downgraded on the player edition, everything else from what i can see is pretty much exactly the same as the normal x50 pro.
My question is that because i am UK based i would prefer to use the EU X50 Pro Rom, but would i be able to flash the EU rom onto this version of the phone?
yeah i would like to know this too since i am considering buying one
Hmmmmm take that as a no lol
you can try the same method as here described

If you cared to read the whole thread which is quite short for now, you'd see it yourself.
Regretfully, I am still waiting for my phone to arrive, so I can't check it myself yet.
I also compared that custom RMX2076EU_OTA11_A.20 with the stock version, and I had only found 2 differences:
1. The file \META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script is a little different.
The author of the custom ROM just deleted the part in the beginning where it should check if your phone model is RMX2076EU. So, basically, you can try to install it on any phone you like, but the consequences would be quite unpredictable. So it's better to install it on RMX2071CN only, for which this customized ROM was intended.
2. The file \firmware-update\modem.img is the one from stock RMX2071_OTA11_A.18
I don't know why the author didn't use modem.img from RMX2071_OTA11_A.20. Maybe it wasn't released yet by the time that custom ROM was made.
This custom ROM seems to be a proof of concept that EU ROM can be ported to CN version, but the author of the above mentioned post claims that it doesn't work otherwise than upgrading from stock RMX2071_OTA11_A.18 to this customized RMX2076EU_OTA11_A.20, and that the kernel is different in RMX2076EU_OTA11_A.22, so you can't upgrade further this way. I'll be sure to check this myself when my phone finally arrives. I also presume that someone more knowledgeable may be able to customize this port further to make Play Market certification work as well. We only need to wait until someone with actual skill and knowledge starts working on it.
