[Q] Upgrading Galaxy 8.9 P7320T ??????

This is my 1st post so I ask fotr a little lattitude.
I am also a newbie to the "phablet" arena.
I have a fantastic little device which I find so useful but would like to improve some of its efficiencies and this is where I need some help as I am not confident in seeing anything coming from Samsung or Telstra.
1. can the OS be upgraded to Android 4.1 or 4.2 ?
if it can - will I lose any functionality
if it can - what are the specific steps/procedures and software ?
2. can I remove the installed bloatware
3. can telephony be enabled in 3.2 or 4.1/4.2
Thank you.
Tablet Specs are:
=============
GT-P7320T
Android 3.2
Baseband Version P7320TDVLC2
Kernel Version 2.6.35.11 perf
Build Number master.DVLC1

[Q] Questions about a Galaxy S4 Mini Clone?

Recently i bought a Galaxy S4 Mini clone (From China) off eBay and it's been doing pretty well, until recently. The phone has gotten progressively slower and can't handle many tasks at a single time, where as my old android phone (running 2.3 ) could handle multiple tasks at a time without even batting an eyelash. The current clone i have is running Android 4.2.2 and has exactly 1024 MB of Ram, and on average, due to background tasks (Rough 90 MB of ram) and what is allotted to run 4.2.2 (Roughly 0.98 GB of RAM) the phone only has about 25-30 MB of free RAM at any given time. I figure this might be what is causing the phone to slow down, and seemingly freeze on almost every task i give it, even when it is just one thing that is being done at a time. Now, Here are my questions, I saw an article on how android 4.4 can run well using only 512 MB of RAM, and was wondering if this update could be applied to my S4 Mini Clone since it has 1024 MB of RAM? Is this even doable? And if so, where could i search for a ROM or update to 4.4? If nothing can be done, or if my ideas won't work, i'm open to any suggestions and am willing to give any information that might be needed to help.
Also i was able to successfully root the phone using a guide i found here, if that is helpful in anyway.

If you are rooted uninstall some system bloatwares using ES file explorer (Be careful while uninstalling system apps) then try Clean Master and also Greenify

Thanks for replying I'll try it out a other issue I have is notification or not coming only comes when I open the app

My friend its because you have greenified or force stopped that app. remove the app from greenify if you are using it then it will become normal...

[Q] Next3: what's the highest API level it can handle?

My tablet is an old Nextbook Next3:
Firmware Version: Android 2.1
Kernel Version: 2.6.25
Build Number: 1.3.23.ECLAIR.eng.root.20101208.141547
I'd like to get it to run the latest version of Android, ie Lollipop 5.1, API Level 22.
If someone has created an unoffical Custom ROM Lollipop that runs on a later
generation Nextbook, will it also work on the Next3?
The only forum entry I could find was dated Jul 2011:
NextBook Next2-Next3/Prestigio PMP3084B/Odys Genesis -Eclare, Froyo, Gingerbread
Gingerbread seemed to be highest at API Level 10 associated (un-offically) with Next3.
I saw some mention of Custom ROM IceCreamSandwich associated with a later
generation Nextbook . Does that Custom ROM ICS work on Next3. How do I
determine is it will or won't?
What keywords should I use in my search?
Thanx for your time and energy,
Karen Dickerson

Lineage OS for Samsung Tab4, 7 inch, T231, 3G

Guys, I am new to this forum. My Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 (7 inch) T231 is running on very old Android KitKat version 4.4.2. This is the last official OS update received. Many apps are not supported on this old android.
Please provide a stable Lineage OS version, ROM file link and whole process to install.
I will be ok with installing Lineage OS version 13 and above (i.e. Marshmallow 6 and above), which ever is most stable.
Thank you in advance.

Since you are new, a few words...
People may understand your request different, like one understands "is there some out there who can help me and how can I help..." and others may understand "give me that ROM, you are there to provide me stuff..." So better be slightly "overpolite".
Developers and development teams just share their work on XDA and improve it based on the feedback the users or other developers give them. We can be happy, that XDA is a big development hub and have to be very respectful. :good:
The Tab 4 is a very old device, in my case I just use it as a small power bank. Display resolution, RAM, system speed... however, developing may be suspended and you cannot expect newer custom ROM releases.

I will explain quickly because Galaxy tab 4 7.0 variants don't get support.
8.0 and 10.1 models have SD400 (msm8226) SoC, 7.0 has a Marvell for the wifi variant and an Exynos for 3G and LTE variants. And it's easier to work on qcom-powered devices

I'm gonna go ahead an do what nobody else here would and answer your question. And it indeed works because I did it just last night. Just follow the link below

Which make and model android tablets running android marshmallow and above are best for rooting purposes with windows?

Hi all
I have been searching for a decent tablet to root and flash a custom rom like lineage OS. I've tried the cheap stuff like RCA (6783w42 FYI). Bricked it. I've got a cheap chinese tablet with no brand name , a mediatek 6592 chip and it runs android lollipop which I didn't discover until it put a CPU checker app on it. (false advertising by seller). I would have like to try the amazon kindle fire 7 16 gig or Kindle fire 8 HD 32 gig but I am so tired of throwing away money. Can anyone recommend a decent device?

Android Marshmallow ( Android 6 ) was released October 5, 2015: it's absolutely out-of-date, IMO. Same with Android Lollipop ( Android 5.1 ) what was released April 22, 2015,
Today devices get shipped with Android 12 - released October 4. 2021.

Take note that rooting any device's Android doesn't require to flash a Custom ROM - what would require to flash a Custom Rrcovery beforehand.
