Hi all
I have bought a GT-P6201 - a Samsung Galaxy Tab™ 7.0 Plus N (WiFi / 3G) 16GB and I have some questions:
1. Is this device the "same" (as far as I know only the speakers are different, but I´m not sure...) like the normal Samsung Galaxy Tab™ 7.0 Plus (WiFi / 3G), the GT-P6200?
2. If yes, can I use the custom ROM´s and ClockworkMod Recovery for the GT-P6200?
3. Are there any XDA users out there having the same device? So that we can share "our" experience, questions, problems and solutions?
Thanks.

1) Should be YES
2) There's not a REAL custom ROM for our P6200 I'm about to realize one as soon as I have enough free time. You should be able to flash CWM and Root your device without any issue
3) As I've seen 'till now you're the only one who own this version of Tab Plus, hope someone else can share your experiences
'Cuz of that, I'd like to ask you if you can share some photos of your device maybe in its differences (speakers)
Let us know

Yesterday i orderd the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus N (GT-P6211) German Version.
It should arrive on 04.04.2012. Is the P6211 the same as the P6210? The Hardware is the same.
When it arrive I'll try to root it and flash CWM. I tell you if it works.

Exactly. It's the WiFi only version.
Hi David,
thank you for your answer .
Good to know that there is an active dev around here spending his free time for the tab.
BTW: Here is a picture link from Amazon showing the GT-P6201

wifi only
The U.S. wifi only, 16gb, is the gt-p6210. see the samsung us site below. Samsung US site so this is the us version in the link. It is a/b/g/n wifi.
http://m.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab/GT-P6210MAAXAR#specs
Afaik:
6200 = 6201
6210 = 6211
It looks different but the hardware should be the same.
BTW: I own a 6211 and am happy with it.

There should be a mistake somewhere between the question and the answer...
I don't have an indepth german language knowledge, but when I see UMTS I guess that means 3G and not Wifi only !!!
We can find even cheaper but just to have an idea about the product and the specification (in german that time, but google translate should help) :
http://www.amazon.de/Samsung-Touchs...DA6U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1335349342&sr=8-1
I'm thinking about buying one but I have 2 questions :
1) Is it possible to place a phone call with this Samsung Honeycomb just as with P1000 ??? ^^
2) What custom ROM can we expect to replace this Honeycomb ???
I really love my P1000, but if can have the same formfactor much lighter in the pocket, with dual core and 1 GB RAM with the same quality as with P1000, why not...
Anyone can compare the functionalities between Samsung Gingerbread and Samsung Honeycomb, specially for multimedia and bluetooth support ?
I already saw some missed with galaxy Tab 8.9" and 10.1" as multimedia and bluetooth were not as good as with GT P1000...

You are right, i made a mistake.
P6200 = P6201 3G
P6210 = P6211 WiFi
The P6201/P6211 is the German version. Samsung had to change the appearance because Apple complained that it look like the iPad.
To your questions:
1) Yes you can make phone calls on the P6200 3G version!
2) There is only CM9 as custom ROM, but it is in Development, because it has many bugs.
For me Honycomb is very smooth and stable and Samsung has confirmed that ICS will come to our Device soon. About bluetooth I can not say much because I haven't used it yet.
Stock videoplayer on the 6200 has pretty limited codec support - but with mx videoplayer or moboplayer, I haven't found anything it can't play - most using hardware acceleration aswell. I have the hdmi dock and output to a 50" hdtv and it's every bit as good as my archos - and that's saying something as archos are unbeatable for multimedia support.
As far as I can see, there are few differences to justify the massive price difference between the 7.0 and the 7.7 - slighty more powerful cpu and a little more screen real eastate but no IR blaster. I thought long and hard about which one, I reckon for the money the 7.0 plus 3G is the one to get, it's even really good as a phone, I thought I might make the odd call on it but have ended up using it more than my arc s
i`ve searching around but still don`t find where the custom rom link is...can anyone paste me some link of it..
my device is P6200DXKK5 for baseband version
and 2.6.36-P6200DXKL3-CL608366 [email protected] #3 for kernel version

Hi.
I hope i put this thread in the right place. Please move if not.
I want to make you all aware of the Neo N003 Premium and Neo N003 Youth.
Two Android phones that i think have great potential for a low price.
Check them out.

Sounds pretty good to me.
I hope the Sony 13 mega-pixel camera will deliver and that the screen is good.
If thats the case i sooo hope that the wonderful people here on xda do what they do and mod the shiit out of them :good:
Im already looking forward to all the questions about what kernel is best for battery *Snicker*
Your thoughts??
The Neo N003 looks great. I've been looking at it for a few weeks now.
I especially like that it's supposed to be the first mtk6589 phone to get usb otg and hdmi.
I'd still probably wait for the 2GB premium version.
Basically for the mtk6589 1080p 2GB phones I really only like 2 of them. The iOcean X7 Premium and the Neo N003.
I just got a iNew i2000 and have been messing around with it. It's very nice, but it's only 720p.
These companies like to make customers hot and then delay the release to another week then to another month. The release will be the end of april now.
I hate the look of the Neo N003, it looks so common. But specs are the best bang for the bucks.
I still prefer the iocean X7, but also the premium version.
Will be interesting to read what users think of it when it finally comes out.
Good choice ha!:thumbup:
Sent from my Karbonn_A1 using xda premium
The Neo N003 seems to be the most cost effective one out of the Android phones coming from China with similar specs based on rumours so far. My only issue is the lack of bands these phones cover. 2G will be no problem but 3G is weak and no LTE.
I'll be buying one of this (and in a joint purchase we'll get about 500 of this phone, both youth or premium) directly from NEO's factory. It looks like they extended the 3G bands as it now supports 850/900MHz band on 3G. You can see almost full specs here, many of them confirmed directly talking with NEO:
http://www.htcmania.com/showpost.php?p=8082128&postcount=1
Photos also look good:
Right now there are 350 people in the list (it's a joint purchase with 2 forums, HTCMania and Forocoches), 200 on HTCMania list (which hasn't been updated since some time) and about 150 in forocoches one.

lightake is excellent. there is a coupon thread here as well for the neo n003. in my opinion, not worth an extra $90 or so for the ultimate. the standard should suit 99.9% of users just fine.

Neo N003 2GB version is being pre-sold but the iOcean X7 pre-sells are only the youth 1GB version.
i can't see the advantage of having 2GB ram over 1GB if in ANDROID we have ZRAM (like virtual memory in windows) and the games/apps are running fine on 512mb RAM...
BTW, any news about this phone? still presale?
Some reviews say iOcean X7 Youth version has lower display specs, most say it's the same. Camera is 13mp in full version but 8mp in Youth version.

And
If android5 be released,anyone update this phone?!!!
At end, is any guidance to root and flash custom rom or anything?

Sorry for my bad english.
Tanks
NEO company name is NEO, isn't it?
Website: http://www.neomobile.com.cn/
Android 5? well, next one looks like it will be Android 4.3, but we don't know if it will be updated.
There are already root guides for MT6589 phones, and this one doesn't look like it will be any harder. About custom roms, in HTCMania we are buying about 3000 phones so, yeah, maybe there will be roms.

Comparing the latest iPad and a newly released Android Tablet. Can anyone give me 3 good reasons for each device which is better and for what reason:
Latest iPad versus Latest Android Tablet
IPad has better apps, better accessories and better build quality (if compared to samsung). Latest android tablet can be hacked both software and hardware(presumably), and has the latest specs(except maybe gpu?)
Best Website To compare Any Devices
The best website I prefer to compare any devices of any XYZ company is.
www.gsmarena.com
Use the compare Function While viewing and phone specification.
And also the user review about the phone and the daily interest and popularity is available here.

If you want a super smooth and a well designed and neat UI, excellent build quality and have money to spare, go for the latest iPad.
If you want real value for money and the pure Android experience and the awesome option to develop your own software, go for Nexus(7 or 10).
If you are in between both the two, go for the latest Samsung Tablet.
And most of all, if you want to send songs or apps via Bluetooth or have a file explorer, go for any Android tablet.

Good question, I would like to know as well.
Nexus 7 or Xperia Z
Hi all,
I bought the nexus 7 a week ago but i haven't been that happy with the device (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2232569).
Im not sure I really need a tablet, and having another device to carry/charge is also a little annoying.
My iPhone 3GS is on the way out anyway- so i thought of returning my Nexus 7, and getting the Xperia Z instead.
Any comments on this? I do plan to read a lot on it (ereader). How is the xperia z to read on? Ok size?
Lumia 710 vs sony W8
i've been using my nokia lumia 710 for 6 month
i used custom ROM, so far lumia 710 so good, fast, smooth, good camera, can install xap application via pc, or direct download.
compare to my firnds android device W8, its lag, and limited in RAM
tornerei after
samsung note 2 dual sim N1702 vs samsung grand duos I9082

If you are getting a phone for mainly reading, I suggested either an amoled screen, for battery saving purposes, or a lcd3 screen, which imo, looks better. According to what I've read, the z's screen is washed out, so I would avoid it.

We don't have a custom recovery as yet and no sign of any developer support. I am very surprised at the lack of adoption of this device as I find it the best that I have ever owned and that is many. I'm not really bothered about a custom rom but would like to have the ability to remove the nav bar on my own selected apps like I could on my lg g2 which is virtually the same device but smaller.
hello my Indian brothers,
will there be any kind of development on this device (d838)?
OR what do you think is better phone,g2 or g pro 2? (with respect to roms,development ec.)
coz m gonna buy this phone otherwise g2
Just buy it
I'd still buy this phone over G2. There are enough apps in the playstore now to change each and every aspect of the phone. I do not see the need of a custom rom. It has every feature I can think of and can do every thing I'd want to do with a phone. I got a D838 about 4 days back. I have rooted it, customised it and will be receiving a 64GB microSD today. I don't think there is anything more I can ask for. And ROM development is more of a need when you arent satisfied with the software thephone maker provides with. I am one satisfied customer. And most importantly, I get over 24 hours of battery life with ease. That is about 7 hours of screen time, 1 hour of call, with 3G on for the entire day and Location services activated. And this is for sure is a BIG BIG deal for me.
agree with manas... its actually a very good phone... smooth like butter... my home screen

It will work with non Samsung phones. You'll be missing functionality with Samsung's apps like S-health, though.
Samsung Pay won't work either.
Will it work with the LG V20 ? I read in the forums that the S2 wasnt compatible. I use android pay so not really interested in Samsung pay or Shealth.. thanks ..

Should work, it's advertised that it will work on non galaxy phones. Even Samsung pay the first 5 times will supposedly work, after that it must be connected with a galaxy phone. As long as you don't care about Samsung specifics you should be fine. But I think in order for LTE to work it needs to be synced with a galaxy as well when it's first turned on. Someone with a gear s2 may be able to clarify that.

Are we sure about that?
On Samsung's website it says the Frontier LTE will be able to download apps independent of the phone. It seems like they should be able to make Samsung Pay work independently also.

It will work independently for the first 5 times, after that it must be paired to a galaxy via Bluetooth to work. That's what the website states.
It's just speculation, but there's hope.

Here's what it says if you don't want to click on the link:
"Make up to five payments on your Gear S3 without a Galaxy smartphone nearby after initial setup. Reload payment capability by connecting to a Galaxy smartphone via Bluetooth. Only compatible with select cards, carriers and Samsung devices; see the Samsung Pay Support page http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/app/samsung-pay#compatibility for compatibility information."
Any update if the gear manager will be released for the iPhone ?

Here's what I've found (no update as of now):
http://www.sammobile.com/2016/08/31/gear-s3-iphone-support-confirmed-by-samsung/
But here's an article to get the gear manager installed without requiring jailbreaking but it looks like a few people are having problems getting it to work with the iPhone 7:

Okay...the Samsung USA site says Samsung Pay works on the S3 with NON Samsung devices, adding to the pile of confusion. This would be a killer feature if true.

Haha, you're absolutely right. I went to the desktop version and it now shows Samsung pay at the bottom. They really want to confuse everyone on if it will work or not...

The desktop website states Samsung pay works on all android phones but the mobile website doesn't say that.

So messaging calls and email show "limited compability" ? wonder what exactly that means? Will us V20 owners not be able to send messages from the watch? or read emails on the watch ???
Smartisan is one of the few Chinese manufacturers that pays serious attention to its design. The design of Nut pro 2 is quite stunning. More importantly, the specs is quite decent, 4+64, 6+64, 6+128 and 6+256, and i personally will like to go for the 6+128 version、5.99 Inch、Qualcomm Snapdragon 660、Face ID Recognition、USB Type C&OTG&Bluetooth 5.0
What do you guys think?

Yes, the other day i ask one Chinese online retailer if they can install the google play for us before shipping, they said yes, of course. Here is their selling the 6gb+128gb version: https://www.coolicool.com/smartisan-u3-pro-nut-pro-2-6gb-ram-128gb-rom-qualcomm-snapdragon-660-22ghz-octa-core-599-inch-corn-g-47748
Thank you for your prompt reply.
I own it.
Hi guys, I own and love everything about this phone. The design is fantastic, camera is great, screen is superb and the battery life is brilliant etc... There are a few work arounds I'm still having to get used to coming from an iphone, but there really are very few drawbacks.
The few niggly things (being based in the UK) are:
- I can't use Android pay as it doesn't pass Android safety net. Looking online this seems to be true of a lot of Chinese phones and all of Smartisans. This one is a biggie to me.
- All 4 app doesn't work on the phone
- Some of the unread badges (WhatsApp for example) don't show up on the stock OS. I believe this is an Android thing though? Same for no easy way to copy and paste images...
- it says 3G on the network even when you're getting 4G signal and speeds (I tested them using speed test).
Other than these though I couldn't be happier. Especially for the money. The phone really is beautiful, more so than I was expecting.

Are you still happy with this device? Seems to offer most bang for the buck of all chinese upper midrange phones. Do you have any major problem with notifications, whatsapp for instance?
Google play market is installed directly without any messing around, but were you able to find a way to root it?

Hi there, I’m using this phone for about 6 weeks now and I’m happy with it too.
For the money it’s a great device, looking beautifully. The 128/6GB variant is very smooth in all situations.
It’s easy to install Google from the Smartisan store, search for gugi app and afterwards you’ll find Play Services an Play Store working.
Screen and battery life are great, 4g is displayed now (after update) when receiving 4g signal. Before it always said 3g.
Sound quality is average, the camera is not bad but I expected a bit more from it (less pronounced colors, a little less contrast and less noise in some occasions). It seems the hardware of the camera is good enough, it just needs further tweaking in my opinion (i am a camera nerd, owning Vivo Xshot before).
I received already 4 updates, mainly for tweaking and stability but I never encountered a crash so far.
Idea Pills, Big Bang are nice to haves, software features are good but some are not so easy to find out. As are the settings for Google apps.
Notifications of WhatsApp is working for me, however you do need to change settings in the app manager otherwise Messenger and WhatsApp for instance freeze at 5 minutes after closing the app (for battery savings). Therefor it’s important to get settings right.
All in all I think for the money it’s a good buy.
I just received this phone with a "global rom" but now it will not update. Does anyone know where I can find the stock ROM and the update procedure. Thanks in advance

I've recieved my Smartisan Nut Pro 2 Smartphone this week! I was so impressed. This is really one of the best looking (and performing) Smartphones.
But as @reefmonger I have the same problem with the fist OTA update I recieved.
It will download, but when installing it just comes back with: Error --> Press Volume UP + Power button to return...
I'm looking for a way / file to install the update manual. It's about Version 4.1.6. I'm now running V4.0.4.
Hope anyone has got an idea or better: the solution

I am thinking this problem is created by Gearbest customizing the stock smartisan ROM. See 5:28 point of this video

Hi there,
I think it is Gearbest ROM related.
Mine is from Joybuy with original ROM and so far I received 4 successful updates.
Even with Play Store installed from Smartisan market.

Thnx All.
I Already discovered it is ROM/ version related.
I wanted to update manual to the new version and then the bootloader said it was a wrong version ...
I should be xxxxxxx (forgot the name) and I have the xxxxxxx.hawai version ...
So a difference in Chinese / Global / international version ??
I'll take a look at the youtube film a poster added earlier ...

I just ordered the 6GB/64GB version which apparently has the new rom with OTA support. It arrives on Wednesday. I really love how customisation the OS is! Just a shame we can't have Android Pay working in the UK!
What are they doing now?

I have used thier flagsship for 2016 before (Smartisan M1L for 1 year), and now I am using this Nut Pro 2 and have been using it for about 3 months;
There are some points I think you need and others need to know:
1) Smartisan does not upgrade Android version. so if your phone released with Android 7.1.1, it will stick with forever; but they update the security patches after few of monthes ( 4-12 months )
so don't expect big updates, the maximum update size you will get is 400GB
2) The old phones get the new features (related to softwaare) that packeged in the newest phones, no matter what version of Android is.
3) The Nut Pro 2's camera is very sensitive, mine' camera glass got wrekt but it is still functioning and no any effect to the quality
4) Updates changelog always in chinese, but you can translate it using Big Bang feature.
5) others around you can hear the voice of the caller or the one you are talking to with vie Nut Pro 2.
6) the company is going to release another new phone in April, you can check thier official forums http://bbs.smartisan.com/forum.php?mod=forumdisplay&fid=182
I hope it is flagship, I will buy it and sell my Nut Pro 2 then
7} there is upcoming major update ( Software version 4.5.0 and size will not be higher than 400GB unless you are on very old ROM) - mine is now on version 4.1.7.1 (the latest version for now)
the chinese people are testing the beta now.
8) you can delete 90% of the bloatware and some of main apps such as the primitive calculator.
9) You cannot root the smartisan phones, at least not the new phones.

I notice you can flash the official rom with a flash cable. I ordered one which has arrive. Zi Reviews has posted a how to on his youtube.
Ok I flashed the official software using a deepflash cable. I am now on the 4.1.7.1 build which is awesome. Was really easy to do I don't like the shop rom at all!
