Downgrade Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 edition) to Android 4.1 - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I currently have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (GT-N8013) running android 4.1.2. I really like the software, especially the multi-window. I find that the layout is similar to a desktop. If I wanted to get the newer version of this tablet (Note 10.1 2014 Edition). Is there any way that I can get the same software experience as my older tablet. I'm talking full Samsung (or Samsung like) android 4.1 experience. I don't have a lot of background in this subject but I know that things similar to this are possible.

Ask in the 2014 forum .

Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus

Why are no developers developing the Cyanogen mod 9 Android 4.x.x for the galaxy tab 7.0 plus WIFI only version? Its a real nice device and it will be awesome to have CM9 for this device. I believe the galaxy tab 7 plus is being ignored for the galaxy tab 10.1.
its all to do with the sauce codes...Samsung have them under wraps and are not letting them go easy also their is an issue with correct drivers etc... im sure when the codes are revealed their will be 100s of developers trying this baby out (wifi/3g) but in my opinion i think Samsung have kept this from us deliberately as they are launching the new g-tab 2 this is basically a crappy version of out tab but with ICS not honeycomb and buy them allowing development on our device before launch would kill the thrill of the new galaxy tab 2... disappointing i know
I read a article this morning that said almost the exact same thing you just did. the Tab 2 seems like a lower end device than what the plus is. Slower processor (or just underclocked) with ICS. I am perfectly happy with the tab plus.
- sent from my Galaxy Tab Plus!

[Q] The Whole Samsung abandoning Galaxy Tab 7.7 & Galaxy Note 10.1 issue

Can any knowledgeable person tell us all why Samsung created 2 great tablets and then seemingly just abandoned them after only 6 to 8 months? Those two great tablets I'm referring to are the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 and the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1. I've read up on this but, still I can't understand why this had to happen.
I personally own two variations of the Tab 7.7 (the P6800 3G & the i815 4G versions) and if not for Cyanogenmod or Paranoid Android I would have no support for these two cool devices. Samsung just gave up on the Tab 7.7 after about 8 months. WHY IS THAT?
If anyone else out there shares my curiosity and frustration please share your thoughts. Oh can someone tell me how to get the 3G and 4G radios working on Paranoid Android version 3+? Because right now I'm stuck with Wi-Fi and that really sucks when you don't live in the USA.

[Q] Putting note 10.1 Touchwiz and all the samsung apps onto a "Chinese t

Hi,
I'm new to XDA and i was wondering whether it was possible to basically buy a random 10.1 1280x800 off ebay (because i can't afford a note 10.1) and put the note 10.1 touchwiz onto that tablet with all the samsung apps such as the samsung version of the video player and all that.
So I want to have a the samsung interface with all their apps on this tablet so it's like a note 10.1 in a different shell. I was wondering how you would go about doing so.
thanks

[Q] Is Samsung Doing Too Much?

Ok so they just released the Galaxy Note 8.0, announced new tabs and the new Note 10.1 2014 edition, and now they've got these PRO series tablets out....
Is it me, or is Samsung doing way too much at once?
Don't get me wrong, the Note PRO looks awesome, but this is a little overboard. Some devices will be inevitably left behind on updates, and this only intensifies the problem..... What do you think?
I think that Samsung has enough invested that they would rather make 12 "OK" tablets then one "All in One" device to try and gain a bigger market footprint. This allows them to try and pull in more people due to the wide range of options. Don't like a 12 inch tablet? well there's also 10 and 8~ inch options. Want a S-Pen? Well there's the note series for that which comes in all sizes.
Personally there are only 2 comfortable sized tablets; 10 inch ones for school and work, and 7 inch for media and play.
I think the 12 inch tablet is basically Samsung giving us the closest thing to a desktop or shall I say "NOTEbook" for an android tablet. Like the Original note this could be revolutionary or it could flop. If anyone can make 12 inch+ tablets it's Samsung or Apple. Just my 2 cents

@md1008 I guess so, but they need to start including keyboard docks and feasible hardware instead of all this bundled crapware allegedly worth hundreds of bucks.
I feel nowadays that they are only flooding the market, IMHO. Some are great products, for sure, but too much is just too much. You don't know anymore what to buy. It's like they made a tablet today, tomorrow they will make a new one but only difference is that 3G is now 4G. Why they didn't made the 4G in the first place and sell only this 4G-model? It would be much easier to update them, when they have less devices to update.
If I need to choose a tablet for me, from Samsung, I wouldnt know what to buy. When I look a some webstore to buy a tablet there is a list:
tab2 7.0 wifi tab3 7.0 wifi tab3 7.0 wifi+3g tab3 8.0 wifi tab3 8.0 wifi+3g tab3 8.0 wifi+4g tab3 10.1 wifi tab3 10.1 wifi+4g tab3 10.1 wifi+3g note 8.0 wifi note 8.0 wifi+4g note 10.1 2014 wifi+4g note 10.1 2014 wifi nexus 10 tab3 kids 7.0 wifi .... WHAT??
If I hadnt ever used Android, I would be lost totally. And this was only devices made by Samsung. Wait a couple months and there will be more of them! (Pro's and Neo's and ...?) If you considering to buy a smaller one, you have already to choose between these:
(tab2 7.0)
tab3 7.0 wifi
tab3 7.0 wifi+3g
tab3 8.0 wifi
tab3 8.0 wifi+3g
tab3 8.0 wifi+4g
note 8.0 (spen)
Was it really necessary to make so many models? Do you think, you will get updates in the future? Nowadays I understand it quite well why people like Apple and they feel that Android is just a big mess. Well, of course, we know that the problem is not Android but manufacturers like Samsung who are only flooding markets with multiple devices.
So yes, I feel Samsung is doing just too much.
Samsung is doing too much.
They are going end up like SEGA if they don't slow down.

Lol I know right! It's a circus! The hardware differences aren't even very significant. They would build more Customer Loyalty if they supported devices long-term and marketed massive feature updates well. They did it with the 4.1 update, calling it a premium suite. Maybe it didnt work so well. =/

Android Go (Oreo 8.0) for galaxy tab 3 10.1

If someone would want to make an android oreo go rom, it might actually run. Because theses devices are really old and their performance is really bad. However Android go was designed to run on devices less powerful than the tab 3.
Would be awesome but I don't think that any developer will build a rom like this.
Probably nels83, this working in andreo oreo for this wonderful tablet.
I put cyanogenmod on it for the same reason, it is amazing the differents !
15k bunchmark before (kitkat 4.4.2), 22k now...
All work better, it has a wonderful fluidity than before.
Sry for my english

i would love to see Android 8.0 Go edition Rom get released for all Samsung galaxy Tab 3 10.1 varients on XDA so i dont stick with android 7.1 later in the future.
I suggest you change to title as it's misleading.
