I think you are outdated my friend. There are good chinese devices... Look for XIAOMI or Zopo devices, for example... They are really good... And there are many others... Of course there are crappy manufacters, but just do your research before you buy and you will be all right...

Ever heart about oppo? They build excellent phones !

Even apple builds it's things in China these days.

That is only because labor is far cheaper in China then anywhere else. And its apple so thats not saying much.
[About XDA developers] Bill720:
hmmmm

Even more interesting is that Onda is now making android tablets and smart devices. I haven't owned or seen an Onda product in close to five years, but I guess it makes sense that it's the way for them to go. As for the suggestion presented, this could be a decent idea - a crowd funded rom for a device that just works for people; no oem bloatware, no missing features, just a good quality custom rom that works. Oftentimes, this already exists for more well established devices, but for the ones that aren't name brand as mentioned by the op, a cash bounty may be a good way to bring in developers for these.

Intriguing concept for sure.

+1 this idea.

The big names are gonna hate this though
[About XDA developers] zelendel:
To be honest they really don't care. This is for devices they will never support anyway
[About XDA developers] voryzen:
and if the roms that the developers produce, take away sales from those big companies?

yea.. they're gonna care

especially if people work out that they can get a decent phone, at a cheap price and go on to xda and get a decent rom with better functionality, again.. all for a smaller price tag, yea.. they're gonna care
[About XDA developers] zelendel:
That's the thing is you get what you pay for and here you can get a galaxy s5 for free on contract. Can't really beat it. Not to mention most of the smaller companies don't flow gpl as well as the devs I only build for devices their team has and most won't get little knock off devices sold outside of the big companies

isn't the OP talking about crowd sourcing funds to pay a developer to get a stable ROM running for the cheaper chinese devices?

10$ for stable custom kernel or Rom that allows cpu overclocking with custom governor

Unleashed by my Nexus 4
[About XDA developers] draken101:
I'd be happy to donate but honestly how much can be done without having the kernel source code that onda will never release. I already own one of these tablets and it is rooted with a stripped down version of the rom that came with the tablet and a custom launcher. While this works reasonably well its not a real custom rom which I had hoped for.

PS: I'll never buy from them again or anyone who doesn't release their source code cause without it custom rom development is dead in the water.
[About XDA developers] ismail fyala:
some one ask the same question

Well most of the Chinese devices have mediatek chipset and they don't release kernel sources for their devices and I make custom ROMs from stock ROM only and try to add as much features as possible with stability and better battery backup

Moreover I can easily port most famous ROMs like MIUI , LewaOS etc
[About XDA developers] zelendel:
Yes but any room posted must have the kernel source posted with it. No source means no roms posted here.
[About XDA developers] ismail fyala:
if you are sure you should face guneetatwl with these words
[About XDA developers] zelendel:
There are a few things that we are working on fixing with some OEM. But a crowd sourced rom for a device without kernel source will have to be done outside xda
[About XDA developers] GuneetAtwal:
Its not that mate we can post ROM without boot.img which is the GPL part of the ROM so not boot.img in it= No problem for XDA ;)

Though i also think doing outside XDA is a better thing

I am buying the Poetic Slimline case and am looking for a hard sleeve that can fit the Note 10.1 2014 with the case on it. I would like it to offer good protection, when I put it in my backpack. I already have a soft-sleeve cause, but I feel like that doesn't offer much protection. I would like a hard sleeve or at least semi-hard sleeve so I can just slip it in and don't have to worry about anything when I put it in my backpack.

Any suggestions? $15 max please!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Accessories] kkretch:
I got mine yesterday, not to bad especially for 5 bucks. My SM-P600 fits inside even in the OEM cover case.

I'm always worried that the flap on the OEM cover will come open or get grit and dirt between the screen and the cover when I'm in transit, this sleeve seems like it will help with those concerns that I have with my current cover.

It's going to give me just a little more protection and when I want to use my tablet I won't have a thick case on my slim device.

How do you like yours?

.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Accessories] CehowardNote3:
It is a nice case, and for $4.95 shipped, can't beat the value. Mine came the yesterday. I always carry my Note "double case" that is in two case. A bumper case, and then an overall case.. With this case, I have to carry my Note 2014, naked..It fits nice in the case naked..I also have a couple cheap sleeve cases that allows me to carry the Note with the bumper case, and a bluetooth keyboard.. I like that better..

Here is a picture of the leather case, the bumper case that is primary on my note, and the cheap sleeve case..

I might try to find a bumper case that is a little slimmer in size.. The one I have not, also has a kickstand which works landscape and portrait.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lightningdude:
Boost Mobile Moto G is CDMA only. CDMA phones don't take SIM cards, and the only unlock available is bootloader unlock via Motorola's website. If your country doesn't have CDMA carriers, don't buy the Boost Mobile, US Cellular, or Verizon Moto G, unless you plan on using it on Wi-Fi only

Hello everyone.

I'm trying to make a custom ROM for my I8260, but every time I try to install it to my phone, I get "status 0 or 6 or 7) error's in CWM.

I tried variuos troubleshooting methods, but none worked as they should.

It seems that I can't get the edify_defs file (arubaslimss) correct.

The mount points are okay, I think, because they are the same as of I8262.

Can anyone check if the fix_boot thingy is okay for this phone ?

Can the INT2EXT4 script work with the stock ROM 2.3.5?

Also I need a link to download that ROM or the latest, I need the 'img' files to flash them from Linux, I don't have Windows to run the RUU exe file.

Currently I have the CWM and CM10.1, so flashing system.img only is enough or do I have to flash radio, recovery and boot images too?

Thanks.

cronmod needs to work with cyano, I don't know the technical info but it is impossible with the stock rom. I guess you need all the files for the ROM but I can't provide them since my internet is too slow.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] inolvidable:
I use Nova Launcher and a couple of seconds from sleep mode to screen on is the only "significant kind of lag" I have noticed, which barely affects my wonderful experience and opinion about this tablet. I do not regret this purchase given the massive personal and proffesional use I put it through on a daily basis with outstanding performance, non to mention the pleasant screen and stereo sound multimedia experience.

I am actually running the MJ6 firmware (pretty old) and I hope Samsung will release the 4.4 MX UI update short after the new Pro series arrival. The 4.4 kitkat firmware has enhanced the Note 3 in many aspects (battery life and smoothness among others) so I have high expectations for the Note 10.1 2014. We'll see

No lag here. Have had my 32gb since Friday. I use Nova, but used Wiz for two days. Neither UI lags, but I prefer Nova due to features. No comparison, IMO.

Mine is not rooted and I do not see the need to root with this device.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] internetpilot:
No lag for me and never has been. I use Nova launcher just out of preference only. I still haven't rooted it (was going to wait until after kitkat).

As for comparing it to the iPad, my family has 5 of the latest iPads, and I setup most of them. The previous version of iOS was pretty and fast, but somewhat lacking in fancy features. The new iOS has more features, but have you seen it? It's a HUGE UI downgrade (it actually reminds me of PalmOS), and I suspect the reason for that was in order to make the iPad have better features like the latest Android tablets (ie, this one), Apple had to really scale back on the pretty UI.

In other words, take a powerful tablet like the Note 10.1 2014 and strip it down to be as ugly as the latest iOS and I'm sure it will be as fast and smooth as the latest iPad -- probably have the same battery life, too.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] rushless:
Agreed. No lag and also using Nova. I also have an iPad 4 and iO7 is an awful resource hog. The good news is you can turn all the new junk off and is then as good as iOS 6.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Junetastic:

I also experience no LAG in the scrolling and surfing with this tablet... except, the WAKEUP. Sometimes when I press the power or home button when the tab is asleep it would take around 2-3 seconds before the screen would light up. I don't know if this is connected with the microsd card because I don't get any wakeup lag when I remove the card. Anyway Im happy with this tablet except for this.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] 4redstars:
I'm happy with my tablet up until a point. Things that run phenomenally on a qualcomm processor don't run all that great on the Exynos. Not sure if that's Samsung's OS or the developers of some apps but it has been noticeable enough. I didn't really get a smooth easy feeling until I flashed Clean Rom and even still there are things that bug me about this tablet.

Minor problems are not that big of a deal for me but when I drop 500+ on a device I expect it to work very well. I'm happy with my purchase though.
