i remember reading that so called "document" when SAMSUNG was MARKETING for Galaxy Gear

but since then they have gone really quiet on that topic.

looking at my signature one could tell my love for sammy but the lack of support by Samsung towards their tab range

it wont be long before that love is lost completely:crying::crying: :p:p
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] messi2050:
you're right ex: sam:galaxy note 10.1it will never be updated to 4.4.2 although it's a strong tab and now i turned to z1 from s4
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] titotito1983:
OK that article is a great news! BUT the question is When....we haven't even received 4.3 yet!!!!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] deserthi:
I would bet that the only way any of us are gonna see 4.4.2 is when it comes on the new Galaxy Note Pro 8.4 if that ever comes! They just announced the 8" Tab Pro but no word on the new 8" note.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] messi2050:
i think sam will jump to kitkat update but i don't know when i hope it will be as soon as possible
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Bateluer:
No rule says they need to update to 5.3 first. The HTC One skipped 4.2.x and went straight from 4.1 to 4.3. Well, some of them anyway.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] panjaby:
i hope you are right and they release it soon

but i strongly believe that article was a marketing strategy and samsung has got no such intentions because gear is old news now the models that were going to get the 4.3+ have already got it.

hope we dont get betrayed again.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] messi2050:
all we can do is to wait and see what will happen
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] whitemolecule:
Yes, I believe they will eventually release KitKat for N5100/N5110 but not till July. And probably 4.5 will came until they release 4.4. :confused:
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] jazzespresso:
No. It actually going to be happen relatively sooner. As very good indication, Samsung will debut new Samsung S5 at MWC 2014, and possible annouce KitKat 4.4 updates for not-to-older devices as well. This is the only chance that Note 8 will get KitKat 4.4, remember that there's 18 months of software support for Android smartphones (Google’s 18 month mark), if it won't get 4.4 this time, it will never going to see 4.4 (officially at least)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] messi2050:
yes i think it will happen in april
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] titotito1983:
I hope happens soon! but to be honest we dont even have 4.3.....do you think they will skip it and go straight for 4.4?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] gooberdude:
Well until all my 400 apps are updated to properly run 4.4, I'd rather wait it out. Nothing like app bugs on an android device. Doesn't any of you notice how much apps are being updated. Gosh, since X-mas there has been one update after another for compatibility issues with 4.4, or bugs because of backwards compatibility after the 4.4 fix. Common Google! Get your act together or MS will kicky your lilly white bahookie!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] jazzespresso:
Yes I believe they will, consider that there's not a lot of difference between 4.3 and 4.4, so it makes sense for Samsung to skip 4.3 for Note 8 and go straight to 4.4

of course, all these are guessing games, we never know for sure..
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] messi2050:
yes i think that will happen
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] jlongrc:
I've run several 4.4 ROMs on this device and have had zero app compatibility issues.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] deserthi:
It seems that you guys don't have much experience with samsung. I feel, from what I have seen from them over a few years that my prediction is....no kitkat 4.4 for the note 8 ever!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Kanalcommander:
I agree to your point that Samsung had a bad attitude towards updates for early Android devices until S2/ Note 1.

But beginnig with S3/ Note 2 I sense a change in favour of the user.

S3 was delivered with 4.0 in spring 2012 and received 4.3 in late 2013 and is sceduled for 4.4 in spring 2014. That's a lot of updates even alter the 18 month period demanded by google.

Sure that's no guarantee for Note 8 but it's a sign that there is hope.

i agree with you i noticed a change in sam updates policy i hope our note will be updated to 4.4 soon
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] sputnik767:
KitKat for Sprint Galaxy S4 just pushed OTA. I am running it now. Point is, Samsung is not abandoning anyone, and they stated that the Note 8 will get KK. This is not iOS, there are a lot of different models with different hardware, and Android has to be modified and optimized to run on each one. Everyone be patient and realize that not only is the update coming, your have a perfectly functional tablet as it is and that the sky is not falling.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] ilostmypistons:
So now that you have KK on your S4 do you still enjoy your Note 8? I have a Nexus5 (with KK )and a Note 8 and not once did I feel like I was missing out
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] sputnik767:
My tablet and my phone serve different purposes. Just because my phone got updated does not change how I use my tablet. Personally, I don't care what version of the OS my phone or my tablet run, as long as I have a reliable device that serves my needs and performs well.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Android6190:
Note Pro

if we dont get kitkat they need to port over the note pro 12 inch over to our tablet
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] cowhow:
I'm saying this really hoping I'm wrong, but..I think you guys are being overly optimistic because you own one. The Note 8 seems almost like a stepchild to Samsung. They have done little to promote it, not much advertising or in store promotion. I think Samsung has too much fragmentation in their product line. Instead of offering so many different devices they should have only two or three, make them damn good and stick to them. That's one take away from Apple. They have two tablets and look at their impact. In a way Samsung is almost competing against themselves and their devices are cannibalizing sales from the weaker ones.. Again, I sincerely hope I'm wrong, but I'm not going to be bummed out if I'm not. There are some very decent 4.4 ROMs out there.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] cmit37:
I've seen a number of roadside posters with the Note 8 over the past year so can't blame them for not promoting it. I think the highly uncompetitive price is keeping sales down.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Spookymonster:
Agreed. I would never have even considered a Note 8 at $400. But now that refurbs go for $250 and new ones can be found on sale for $260 (Staples this weekend, in fact), I've decided to bite the bullet and pick one up. Note taking and portability is more important to me than multimedia or anything included in KitKat.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] sputnik767:
The Note 8 is actually the only tablet I considered at any price, due to the digitizer. Regular tablets don't really give me any benefit over my computer.

For games, I have a phone.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] thegrumpyoldman:
Try KK out

I agree with sputnik767.

I tried KK on my 5110 with Slimkat rc1 from original development. Runs fast, no app problems But if you need full spen support for note taking etc, stay with a stock variation.

I've gone back to Civato's 3.6.2 with sphere engine kernel & can highly recommend it. A solid full featured no nonsense (de-bloated) rom that runs faster & with more free overhead than full stock.

Yes, your warranty is gone but it's easy to go back to full stock if you have to. Read all the posts for un-rooting & return FULLY & you'll have no problems.:good:
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] intelliriffer:
What about this : http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/0...at-and-even-samsung-may-be-implementing-them/

I'd rather stick to 4.2.2 if this is what Kit-Kat Update brings to my Note 8.0.

May not be an issue for a lot of people but for ones like me, just kills it.

(.. and please no cloud excuse)

Here's the official Samsung PR from today.

http://samsungmobileuspress.com/2014/02/18/Samsung-Confirms-KitKat-for-U.S.-Smartphones-and-Tablets

I hope that Note 8.0 means the i-467 AT&T variant. The Sammobile link lists this device but the "official" one doesn't.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] messi2050:
Don't worry all note 8 variants will get the new update
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] esoh:
Not that I don't believe you, but has this been reported anywhere? Given the fact that they didn't even upgrade the i467 to 4.2 and every AT&T tech that I've spoken with says nothing about it, I have to admit that I'm a bit skeptical. And to be honest, less skeptical of Samsung than I am of AT&T.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] deserthi:
So are you saying that none of the roms available for the note 8.0 have full spen support for note taking etc? I just ordered a note 8.0 with the full intention of rooting it and installing a new rom. I bought the Tab Pro 8.4 just to check it out but am taking it back because even though the screen is great and the speed is cool, it is not a note.

Anyway if non of the roms support the spen then I will keep mine stock and just use a different launcher.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Kanalcommander:
At the moment there is no TW based 4.4 rom. Only TW based roms can give you full S-Pen support.

Non TW roms can use it but the button won't work and S-Note either.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] thegrumpyoldman:
I Shoud have put the word FULL spen support in caps. The pen works for notes etc but doesn't have all function of the push button available. I didn't test it fully but for general note taking it's ok.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] yeeahnick:
I sure hope note 8 gets 4.4.2 cause i just bought it for 260$ (on sale) thinking that i was gonna get KK. At 1st i wanted to wait for a note pro 8.4 but no announcements yet. Also thought that a note pro 8.4 was going to cost close to double what i payed for the note 8. I have CM11 4.4.2 on my S3 and love it but im not ready to waste those TW spen features which is why i didn't go for a nexus 7. Im confidant that note 8 will get KK because note 10.1 2014 edition is for sure getting it so why not make it for note 8 as well and we all know the hardware can handle it =)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] sputnik767:
I mean Samsung did state that KK is coming to the Note 8 and the device is less than a year old. It's not a question of if, but when. In any case, I hope you're not expecting anything different or spectacular from KK. I have the official update on my Sprint S4, and you would be really hard pressed to tell a difference. Looks the same as JB, and works the same. It's not any faster, it did not come with any new features that I could tell, battery life is about the same. TW did not change. Only thing is that you can install the Google Now launcher and have the ability to start a search by saying "hey Google" on the home screen. It's cool but whatever. I have no complaints about JB and couldn't care less about KK.

Anyone has an idea when it'll be released??

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] noname2no:
Cyanogenmod 11.0 (nightly) already ships with 4.4.2

Why not jumping to cyanogen? CM11 (4.4.2) nightlies are stable. I don't miss Samsung bloatware anymore. MyScript Stylus Beta (OCR keyboard) allows you to bypass the need for dedicated software. It works out of the box including both front and back camera. I haven't identified any weaknesses yet. Thanks to sbrissen & al.

Note: I have run Civato's 4.2.2 for 7 months and have no plan to revert back to it (however good Civato's ROM is).

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] giovgall:
Hi all,

I am having a problem with a friend's i-mate Jam (italian sw).

After a long period it was unused, when it was connected to my friend's

laptop, he was unable to use activesync as Windows reported "USB device

not recognized" even if in precedence all was ok on that laptop.

I tried first on my laptop, than on my desktop, uninstalled v3.8 activesync

and installed v4.1, tried at least 4 different cables but nothing was useful.

So I thought there was something wrong with its firmware. The only way

to get a connection to activesync was through bluetooth.

Upgrade program (JAM_ITA_11204_154_11210_ship.exe) reported this info:

from

Versione immagine CE periferica: 1.03.04

Versione immagine estesa periferica: 1.03.151

Versione immagine del telefono periferica: 1.01.00

to

Versione immagine CE periferica: 1.12.04

Versione immagine estesa periferica: 1.12.154

Versione immagine del telefono periferica: 1.12.10

After some minutes of upgrading it reported a connection error.

Then it started as after a cold reset but at the end of sw installation it shows bootloader screen with no backlight and the text serial 1.0.

Even in this state if it is connected to pc it is not recognized by windows.

If it is hard resetted again all start again with the same bootloader screen

at the end.

Is it possible to use the SD bootload to load original files or another way to do something?

Sorry if I wrote a lot and for my english.

Thanks in advance,

Gianni
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] giovgall:
ok, no ideas?

I studied a little more so may someone tell if the following

way may be ok, please?

Once extracted nk.nbf from original upgrade file,

I convert it to nb1 format using the command

nbfdec -d nk.nbf nk.nb1

then put it on an sd (filled with 0) using

ntrw write nk.nb1 [SD driveletter]

and than a prayer.

Is this procedure correct?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okay, so I'm running the latest OTA update from Verizon Wireless (not 4.4, but the latest 4.3), and I tried to use Firewater to go S-OFF, and it worked. However, due to a typographical error, I couldn't flash ClockworkMod Recovery. I misinterpreted that Typographical error as a problem on the phone, and I began to follow the instructions to reflash the RUU/firmware. So I used the command "ADB OEM relock", and flashed the latest signed firmware from this forum (used the Full firmware/radio zip file 2.10.605.1 firmware.zip) using ADB with success (took 2 tries, as expected, and rebooted the phone after.

However, when I rerun Firewater, the temp root step works, but when I run the "real deal", I get a message along the lines of "it doesn't look like there's a helluva lot to do here," implying that firewater thinks that it has already unlocked the phone. I checked my bootloader after my first retry of Firewater, and to my surprise, it still says *** RELOCKED *** at the top of the bootloader--I was under the impression that the RUU/firmware reload would remove that and set things to defaults.

It is possible that I didn't flash the correctly RUU I suppose, but I truly believe I did. The instructional guide I followed to a T told me that I would likely not succeed the first time around and to run it again, and the phone/adb did not deviate from that. Does anyone have any ideas? Would a factory reset of the phone possibly clear the error that I'm seeing, and allow Firewater to work again? I would reflash the entire stock factory image; however, AFAIK I need to be S-OFF before I can do that!

Thanks,

RS
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] beaups:
Advice is free in irc;) you are s-off still. Do you have custom recovery installed or stock?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] rollinstone157:
Well, I know it's free, but I like to support the devs who work tirelessly to provide these services to the community--I already tossed a few bucks your way :good:

So we're on the same page:

I am S-OFF, but the bootloader is locked

I am currently on the factory recovery. No aftermarket software (other than the Firewater of course) is installed. I just did a factory reset to have a blank slate to start on.

Any ideas on how I can re unlock my bootloader?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] beaups:
locked bootloader is just an inconvenience on an s-off device, but don't do that again. Several ways to change that status to unlocked, easiests is probably:

1.) boot to android

2.) adb shell

3.) /data/local/tmp/temproot

4.) wait (forever)

5.) (copy/paste this) echo -ne "HTCU" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=33796

6.) reboot bootloader

you should be unlocked. Copy/paste that 5th item, don't screw it up.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] rollinstone157:

Thank you so much, my bootloader now successfully and properly says "Unlocked" at the top.
