[Android Stick & Console Computers General] mxport25:
I was wondering if there was a way to customize the rom on the box. Mainly I would like to change the boot logo that comes up from TV BOX to something custom. I would also like to change the menu icons that come up. Have a few programs auto start and run in the background, and some other minor changes. Is this possible? I do all of the above with windows computers, but my knowledge with android is limited. I am trying to make a box that I can give to my elderly parents that has automatic sync software so they get all the latest videos I post on my home HTPC.

THanks

[Android Stick & Console Computers General] Tonian1878:
can get Launchers which are simplified and/or make the icons very big and easy to see. basically designed for old people or less tech savvy people.

dont have any launchers names on hand but i know ive seen a few on the playstore

am sure "Startup Manager" app can block unwanted apps from starting up but can also start certain apps on boot like xbmc(Kodi),

Maybe a scheduler app that make certians app autosync as and when needed

probably need root access for startup manager or scheduler/task apps

dont need to edit the rom for any of these

just keep a backup of the rom

when trying to teach my dad a bit of tech (windows pc) i just said go wild on it, as long as he didnt physically break the box then i could always fix it. knowing that it could always be fixed gave him the confidence to have a mess round and learn himself.

I was looking to download Odin 3.09 so that I can be ready to revert to stock in case things go horribly wrong. But the thread that everything seems to point to for downloads appears to have had the download links removed.

There are lots of sketchy download locations out there on the web but I can't seem to find a good one on these forums anywhere.

The dropbox link you provided is actually blocked by chrome when it is downloaded as being suspicious.

And yes, I tried to Google before posting. In fact I downloaded a copy from one of the locatiosn that were the top search results and my antivirus quarantined the executable it as soon as it was unzipped.

Why is there no official site hosting downloads by the author?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] GuestX0019:
Not sure of your issues--I had no problem using the DB link and I am on Chrome.

Also, I forgot to post the link to my Google Search--didn't mean to imply you need to go do that, I don't post that way--Sorry :o

Sorry for being blunt. But, I gave you a dl link in post 5. I extracted and opened it to the Odin screen. This is with Chrome on a highly secure company computer. No issues. So, I am confused on what else you want--:confused:

Forget about the links in the closed thread, it happens all the time. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Frankenscript:
I had d/led Odin 3.09 a while ago but forgot where I put it. I googled it recently and the first hit in google gave me the same antivirus warning. The second hit took me to one of those download pages where there's links to "Download" many things but were all crapware installers. One link said it would install Odin, and the file downloaded said it was odin, but it ran an installer that kept offering to install yet more crapware, and I had to keep unclicking the default crapware stuff like toolbars and such. Eventually it just exited without installing odin.

I then searched my hard drive and found where I had put it, a couple months ago... :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] smock9:
So why is Odin this way. Why isn't there a main site where new versions are released? Why does it have to be passed around on forums?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
Dude, don't download if you don't want to but it's what you need. Personally, I'd use v1.85. But I'm old school.

Figured I'd stay a thread for those of us who have an AT&T Tab 4 SM-T337A variant. Anyone weeks have one? What are your thoughts? I'll probably post some in the coming days as I use it more.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] bl2128:
I have the T-Mobile version, but it's pretty much the same. I am moving from an AT&T tab 3 7.0 and so far I am not sure if I'm impressed yet. One thing I have noticed is that there is not an ambient light sensor on this model. It's a small quirk, but something I feel should have been added. Overall build quality is ok, and it seems responsive to me, but I think once my case shows up I will be more inclined to use it as I normally do without worrying so much about scuffing it up.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] oldblue910:
The lack of an ambient light sensor was a real head scratcher for me too, especially because the Galaxy Tab 3 had one. I also noticed that they downgraded the camera. The Tab 3 8.0 had a 5 megapixel autofocus camera while the Tab 4 8.0 has a 3 megapixel fixed focus camera. Further, they seem to have gotten rid of the stereo speakers in favor of one mono speaker on the back. I don't get these decisions at all. I realize that the Tab 4's biggest upgrade over the Tab 3 is the processor, but did adding a quad core processor really make it so they had to skimp on the light sensor, speakers, and camera? If they needed to take something away, I'd have preferred they get rid of the IR blaster or vibrator, personally.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] bl2128:
Actually, I didn't have the vibrate function on the tab 3 and was didsappointed. I was happy to have one on the 4, but I have no idea why I would need it now. I would have rather seen that left out too. I'm really hoping to a root exploit soon so I can tinker with this one at least. I didn't really pay attention to the camera because I really don't use it. I really only use my tab for streaming music and poking around on the interwebs.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] oldblue910:
Essentially, what Samsung said to us is "Here is the Galaxy Tab 4 8.0. It's $30 cheaper than last year's model, with a better processor and a vibrator, but we downgraded the speakers and camera and got rid of auto brightness."

This sounds absurd when you put it that way. I would have preferred "Here's the Galaxy Tab 4 8.0. It's $30 cheaper than last year's model, with a better processor, but we had to get rid of the IR blaster and continue to leave out a vibrator." To me, that sounds much more reasonable.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] mrksbrd:
From what I read, the Tab line has been downgraded to make room for the pro series which had all the bells and whistles. I just picked my 8" model up yesterday. So far it does what I want just a bit laggy at times, hopefully something a recovery and kernel could fix.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] oldblue910:
Yeah, the AT&T version's stock ROM definitely has some performance issues. Hopefully they'll get rectified with the first system update, whenever that happens.

LTE Tab 4 models have Kids Mode removed

I spoke to Samsung Telecommunications US headquarters this week out of frustration of not having the Kids Mode App on our two new AT&T LTE Samsung Tab 4 devices and have confirmed that all LTE models have had the Kids Mode feature removed from their devices. And, the most frustrating thing is actually on Samsung's own website for the individual, specific LTE models which lists the Kids Mode feature as a key selling point. And yes, the first thing people say is: "Have you checked for the latest updates (Android & Samsung.) And, the answer is yes. I have confirmed this removal with Samsung and notified them that this is indeed a huge problem. Maybe not so much for me or for you who may thrive off all things tech, but for the grandparent or parent buying this for their child with the sole purpose of using this key selling feature to help protect their child. Their frustration and discomfort in trying to use what they've been sold and not being able to will only push them away from Samsung or other Android devices. It is a disservice to both the Samsung and Android names as well as to the customer. And it makes us maybe reflect on what we can learn from apple (which pains me to say): when they advertise a feature, it does work on their devices especially on the new ones and even more so on a product listed to have the feature. It's both disappointing and embarrassing to see as both a Samsung and Android supporter.

And one more thing that pains me as an AT&T employee, which I am but not in mobility, that must be said!.. Samsung and AT&T have thought of our kids protection and replaced the Kids Mode with another app. FAMIGO!.. which is a PAID subscription of $4.99 a month to protect your Child!! THINKING of this even more gets me so infuriated!! What an absolute disservice and embarrassment!!

Can anyone get the Kids Mode AK ported from the WiFi version so we can use it on this device?

[Galaxy Tab 4 General] cstayton:
I am testing FlashFire now for compatibility, so far so good it has no problems updating SuperSU thru flashing a zip file action. unfortunately there is no OEM firmware other than the original NF4 firmware, I will be looking into a build from the NK2 system dump however, system dumps are notoriously buggy.

Please don't ask for ETA's don't PM me with questions, give me a couple weeks to iron out any inconsistencies and we will se what happens.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] pre4speed:
When you use flashfire, do you have a black screen while it is carrying out the options you chose? Mine goes black but after it is complete, reboots normal. Scared the crap out of me the first time I used it. Lol

It's nice to find a thread for AT&T Tab 4 8.0 owners. Are all of you on AT&T? I got mine unlocked, and I'm planning to use mine with TMO. It already works for their paid plans, but it can't sign up for their 200mb free plan (apparently because this tablet is not in their eligible database). I'm toying with the idea of flashing a TMO ROM to see if that'll work, but I'm guessing it won't.

i want to to be safe. i have a tmobile variant and i would like to flash a stock unlocked and/or international rom or developer edition rom. i am guessing this will work but i will have to use gpe or tmobile radios. i haven't seen a clear path to this and i wish it was as easy as fastbooting or just flashing the proper stock nandroid. i am confused, between all the FUU's RUU's, different firmwares etc etc. is there a guide i overlooked to do this?

btw, i've converted to gpe but i went back for various reasons. the gpe just didn't have all the proper drivers to make it the premium phone the m8 is and be stock android, because i much preferred stock but sense is not too bad. helluva lot better than touchwiz. i am just concerned and don't want to brick. i had problems going back to sense. flashing my nandroid after the RUU just failed and failed. i thought i was gonna have to change underwear and get kleenex. ended up flashing my nandroid without md5 check and have had no problems since. i am aware of the CID situation and understand that. i assume i can do this with all 1's or a EU or unlocked cid. i think i understand the MID thing but would appreciate it if somebody clarified it for me. i assume that whatever i end up flashing i need to change my MID to the appropriate MID or change it in android-info.txt or is there where i'm wrong?

anyways, hoping somebody would give some magical link to a thread i overlooked. i am backing up my latest nandroid to my laptop right now and when that is done i am going all the way stock to tmobile version. hopefully in the next hour or so i'll get my answer or direction to the appropriate thread and can just convert to dev or unlocked edition. tmobile variant just has way too much bloat and things i changed like a dozen files for carrier iq block. changing to htc edition firmware will minimize the things i need to do when it's time to ota. anyways, if you made it this far thanks. and even more thanks if you're that person that gets me going in the right direction. i am almost proficient at adb/fastboot so i don't need to be handheld on that.
