[Q] Note JB - 4.1.1- XXLS2 ported to Tab 7.7

Hi is there a possability that the JB - 4.1.1- XXLS2 from the Note N7000 can be ported over to the tab 7.7 since both have exactly the same
hardware! of course there will probably be a kernel issue I'm not sure since I'm not a developer but I hope that this might be a way to make our
Tablets revived for a few more months since it still is probably the tablet with the best possible screen and size!!!! Lets hope for the best

what's really would help is getting the documentation of the whole chipset.
they need details for developing the hardware abstraction layer (HAL), this will help in all later android releases not just JB.

Thread moved to Q & A section, post in the relevant section next time.

Man I've been wondering about this same exact thing!!!!...Would really like to get Project Butter 100% on my 7.7. Although, I think the devs have done an awesome job so far...I also wonder if they would be able to incorporate the touchwiz/multiscreen UI as well with JB onto CM10.
Is it as simple as just dropping the "image/rom" from the N7000...idk, Im completely noob when it comes to this stuff.
I really wish Samsung would just release a fully functional OTA JB on this tablet. It blows the Ipad mini out the water.

how to download please ?

[Q] P3110 Lost tablet UI on Jelly bean Official

Hi,
after I've upgraded to 4.1.1; I've seen that gt2 has lost the tablet UI that It has on previous ICS version 4.0.4.; and It looks like a definitive step.
For me it's a downgrade of the tablet.:crying:
There is some way to change the UI to tablet again without changing to ICS previous room?
Regards.

Actually , its not Samsung, its the way God and Google intended it.
Google choose this style for the Nexus 7 , therefore all 7 Inch Jelly Bean tabs get it... Thank ya Google.!!

Well, OEMs can do 'old' tablet UI if they want. But Samsung has decided to just go ahead and keep that aspect even while replacing other things with Touchwiz.

I find it stubborn of them. Google created their tablet UI and merged HoneyComb and Gingerbread into ICS and further but they are not capitalising on their innovation. Phone mode on 7" tablet is still fine but having it on Nexus 10 is just ugly and not ergonomic.

yeah, especially when trying to tap home on Landscape...

Good side on the new UI:
well, actually, none. most shortcuts from 4.0.4 in status and shortcut bar were removed.
-Except for the halo effect circle when you drag.
Bad side:
-Annoying to click from top then to bottom
-Trying to make it landscape, the feel is kinda annoying, like when you tap home on Landscape.

yeah and the worst there is no nicely working TabUI for DMA2 (4.1.2) out there...

[Q] Some questions on the Galaxy SII Plus

241871833
Hi all,
Sorry if this isn't the thread to post to, but I came accross this thread and feels like this is the place to post any SII Plus questions, correct if I'm doing something wrong.
I just bought a Samsung GS II Plus. Opinions, was it a good buy? I bought it for €179,99, as my budget was a bit tight. But there are several quad core available right now, especially the Wiko, which seem really nice.
I decided based on screen size (5" just feels huge!) and internal storage space (8Gb, 4 available to the user, which is quite disappointing). And of course, the price, which seemed like a good one, altough the specs aren't the most recent ones.
After buying it, used with Android ver 4.1.2 for a whole day and upgraded it to 4.2.2 as it was available.
Q1: What happened to the bubble lockscreen notifications with this update? They were replaced by a new kind of notifications that have absolutely no functionality at all.
Q2: Is it possible to have the bubble notifications back?
Q3: Will a Kitkat release be available to this phone?
Any answers you might provide are welcome.
TIA

You can change the lockscreen effect from the settings About the kitkat-you can try some custom roms bcoz i'm not really sure that we will receive official Kitkat

It's not the effect, but the notifications for unread SMS ans missed calls.

There are now many posts on the front page of this forum about this apparently being the case. (Just if you missed it)

NotePro 12.2 4.4 -> 5 ? But which 5 & which method ?

4.4 -> 5
Hi,
Just a question regarding those who have updated their Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Tablets from 4.4 Kitkat to Lollipop
Out of all who have updated to either 5.02 be it the recommended Korean version or the .NL (An EU version) or even the more recent people who have appeared to have upgraded via flashing to 5.1.1 from an SD card .Zip file...
Has anyone any thoughts on out of all the possible upgrading options / routes I could use / go which they think is the best for a UK based user who only really requires that his Samsung S Keyboard + S mouse both work & that my Bluetooth will work fine too with say Apple device's too etc...
Out of all the current available ways of upgrading my Note Pro 12.2 from 4.4 to Lollipop which would be the more recommended option bearing in mind I don't care about running any modified Roms or doing much Modding if I could avoid needing to do so & that I'm just basically sick of waiting for the .UK Vers of Samsung to offer me an official normal WiFi update like it's clear they should have been offering about a year ago ?
Seeing all the countries that have already been offered the update but still no UK 1 isn't really making me a big fan right now of Samsung & the way they operate when it comes to updates TBH & it saddens me greatly !
So as it looks like the UK won't be getting offered a straightforward Lollipop update like the rest of the world = Which method from those I've mentioned above would be the best option for me ?
Any & all suggestions appreciated greatly & I do apologise for asking such a N00b'sh question it's just that I haven't flashed/ molded a device in ages & would like the best advice possible from the best users possible Hence I thought of XDA
So can anyone or a few experienced note Pro 12 users/ modders suggest my best course of upgrade decision/ choice/ method ?
Cheers

If you have P905, definitely THIS with whatever version?

Hi,
Sorry I should have made this clear ;
It's the basic P900 with only Wi-Fi & it was imported from the Philippines to use in the UK here with me & my UK S Samsung Keyboard + S Mouse
Thank you for the reply but I honestly don't need a Modified ROM if I can avoid it.
I was just wondering out of the options/ choices I had mentioned above what gets the most/ biggest Thumbs up from any guys who have upgraded their P900's
Cheers

Bump Bump...
Any1 Any Advice since I hear that there will be no official UK lollipop getting released by Samsung . ?
Cheers.

Android 7.0?

are we ever going to see nougat on this device. i would apreciate it if someone could take his time to make cm14 for the gt-n8000 if it isnt to much trouble

It would be magnificent!
The split screen feature would look great on this wonderful tablet of 10.1 '
