A couple of days ago, the Note 5 received the Android 7.0 update in Canada. Due to the Note 5 and the Galaxy S6 being 'relatively' similar to eachother software wise; wouldn't it be possible to use the N920W8's audio drivers for G920W8? Many Android 7.0 roms are available right now (such as Griffins, Noble, Nexus7420 AOSP etc.) but only a selected few have support for W8/T.
Now, I can be completely wrong and sound stupid; but I had to at least ask (for my sanity.)
Thanks.

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.
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 .
Hi,
I'm looking to update my Samsung S5 mini to a custom ROM or an official one with at least Android 5, but coudn't find information about it.
Now I have heard about an update 5.1.1. from Vodafone and have a question. If my Samsung S5 mini device (Germany) has the PDA number G800FXXU1AOG2 could the update from Android 4.4.2 to 5.1.1. still work with the G800FXXU1BOL4 at:
sammobile dot com firmwares/download/64164/G800FXXU1BOL4_G800FVFG1BOL1_VD2/
And what does it mean "Country=Germany (Vodafone)" ? Will it only work with Vodafone or all SIMs including prepaid, just will have a Vodafone look?
The update would be even fine with an US user interface or language. The main thing is that it should work or being revertable

I can definitely not recommend Samsung devices for this very reason. Otherwise they would be really good. I decided against a Motorola only because of the exchangeable battery to avoid throwing away the phone after 2 years (or expensive replacement), now I have to throw away the phone due to very old and insecure software. Ugly.
Hi,
I received recently a Tab 2 (P5110) tablet and I would like to make the most of it. The latest stock rom is based on Android 4.1 or 4.2 but there are numerous roms that are based on more recent Android versions, namely 5 and 6.
My question is: from your experience, are these newer android releases (5 and 6) well adapted to the dated hardware of the Tab 2, or does performance take a hit when compared to the older 4.x (as is often the case with iPhones or Windows PCs)?
I would appreciate if you could also mention which specific rom(s) were better (or worse) in that respect.
Thanks!
Android 5 and 6 are slower than previous ones on this device. I use CyanogenMod 11 (4.4) and it's great
imo 4.4.4 is the last good android for this hardware, newer version were not design with 1gb of ram in mind.
Thanks!
I would guess that the main advantage of the 4.4 CM 11 is the removal of unnecessary apps.
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.
