Hello? ??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mattdiehl83:
Think this project may of been scraped. Dev are you still working on this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mattdiehl83:
I hope 2 things here.

#1 and most important.....that the dev is ok...or nothing bad happened in his life

#2 THAT THIS PROJECT IS NOT SCREWED.

Any updates bud?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] CalcProgrammer1:
I'm still here. I kinda gave up temporarily after running into too many roadblocks, then I bought a fancy RGB keyboard and lost track of the project. Then the holiday season took up the rest of my year. I want to get back into this, but I think I'm going to try and get Debian running natively first before resuming the mess that is kexec. Ultimately my goal with kexec is to dual-boot Debian (or Ubuntu, Fedora, etc) and Android, but I am ok with flashing kernels back and forth for now without kexec. I want to talk with some people on the Freedreno IRC and see if I can add a software refresher thread in the kernel or something to make the screen update less of a pain. Knowing that Debian works will be a good motivator for kexec work and having a working screen refresh will be good too.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zordak7:
I have CyanogenMod 10.2.0, and I'm very happy whit it, but one of its little issues is it doesn't support HDMI output whit the adapter.

So, using the dual boot option in googy max kernel, I want to flash a rom (and has to be android 4.1.2), essencially just for that. Some time ago I flash the Omega rom, but couldn't make the camera work, despite of the app I used.

Which custom rom is the simpliest (is that a word?? :p ), smooth, stable and -camera fully functional- ?? I'm sure there's a lot, and don't want to start an eternal debate, just a short list, please :)

Thanks in advance.

Edit: just realiced this goes in Galaxy SIII Q&A forum, sorry for that, how can I move it? :p

Try Blekota rom with S5 look. Install Boeffla Beta 3 kernel too :).. Or install clean QS Port. :) With boeffla kernel.

Finally I chose the Gorgoid v 2.7a ROM.

Camera didn't work, again :(

Beoffla kernel support dual boot?

Thanks!

But I am tempted to believe it's a kernel issue. anyone know if that could be the problem?

Check the app development forum and many forum section of xda.

[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InThePocket:
Hey All,

New to the Android Wear scene and wanted to see what I could do with it...wait, never mind that. What I'd want to do with it. Came up with the idea of having the watch track some important metrics for sports and act as a digital coach.

I've spent a while developing the algorithms and was even thinking of building hardware until the Android Wear platform came out.

Interested in hearing your thoughts on the product. Since I'm new and can't post links, just give "Onyx Motion Potential" a search on Youtube. Should be the first hit.
[Galaxy Tab S General] IconBoy:
Just saw four Sammy tablets at my local Costco:

Galaxy Tab 4 7": $160

Galaxy Tab 4 10.1: $300

Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2: $530

Galaxy Tab S 10.5: $480

I would like something bigger than 7". Can anyone give some pros and cons as to why I would choose a Tab S over Tab 4 10.1 or Tab Pro 12.2 (ignoring cost).

I have looked on some different techy sites for comparisons and am still none the wiser so figured the faithful at XDA would be able to give a real-world comparison/input as to why the different models would be chosen. The 12.2 seems huge - great for movies and other larger requirements, but I've heard the Tab S screen is exceptional.

Sigh...which one do I choose...?
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
Honest opinion #1

Any bigger than 8.4 you should just buy a laptop.

Snapdragon rules so that rules out the Tab S .

Go with the Tab Pro series

[Galaxy Tab S General] DozerD88:
Honest Opinion #2

I personally have bought the Galaxy Tab S 10.5 and previously had the Note 8. Now I cannot give you real life experience because mine is still in the mail but the reason why I chose it was to replace my current windows 8. I have a Samsung Smart 500t PC and it recently has crapped out so I decided to get a replacement. I ultimately chose the 10.5 for multiple reasons:

1. This is going to be my "main" mobile device, I am going to use it for work, meetings, etc. I wanted something more portable than a laptop but bigger than an 8.

2. From my research, the Tab 4 series doesn't have much support. In fact, looking for reviews from the "big" tech companies was difficult to find. I wouldn't want to get a device knowing that there isn't much support right off the bat.

3. Galaxy Tab S is the newest of the Samsung Tabs and thus has the highest chance of getting an Android L upgrade (if Samsung decided to do)

4. Of course the SCREEN is beautiful from what I have seen.

It was a bit pricey but you can find some good deals off of ebay. I got mine for about $439 new free shipping insured.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
I'll add that I do own the Tab S 8.4 (SM-T700) and it is nice,it's just the future for kernels are limited.some who notice when I post I always mention that this Tab S is slick on AOSP
[Galaxy Tab S General] leojab:
Got for Galaxy Tab S 10.5, nice screen.. perfect size for magazine reading as you dont need to keep zooming in and out.

Movies looks great. Very light to hold. Great cover

Cons: Exynos and hard to hold in protrait due to small bezel.
[Galaxy Tab S General] ntamat:
I went to a store and compared them all before I bought the tab s. The Note Pro 12.5 is great, but it's to heavy for me.

I was looking for a tablet for watching movies and reading comics on while chilling in bed :)

Pros

Tab S screen IS exceptional.

It's ultra thin and light.

Looks very stylish

Fast and smooth

Cons

The hardware buttons when in portrait mode due to the ultra thin bezel. (Yes it can be solved by rooting etc.) but there's really no need to have them on a tablet. As I read a lot on my tablets in portrait mode the back button really frustrates me and I keep closing my magazines and comics by mistake. Its no deal breaker however.

I cant really come up with any cons except that tbh
[Galaxy Tab S General] heatfire:
i love the screen on the tab s, i find it very easy on the eyes for reading and movies.

That and the weight is about all i love though. the rest is just ok.
[Galaxy Tab S General] BarryH_GEG:
What are you going to use it for? The Tab 4's have 1,280x800 displays which by today's standards are pretty poor and will be painful for reading text. The Tab 4 7 has 8GB of storage and the 10 has 16GB. With the way 4.4 manages external storage and some media apps only supporting internal storage 8GB is woefully inadequate and 16GB borderline. They both have just adequate CPU/GPUs and you'll feel the lack of power in multitasking and anything graphic intensive. You get what you pay for.

The 12" tablets are huge. I don't know how someone could seriously compare a 7" tablet

and

a 12" tablet. I have a 5.7" N3 so 10" is the sweet spot for me between screen real estate and portability. I'm a productivity user though so anything less than 10" is too small to get any serious creation or office work done. From a portability perspective the difference between 7-8.4" isn't a big deal - you're not going to stick any of them in your back pocket. 7" tablets, in my opinion, are just too small to really enjoy media and browse the web without constantly zooming pages to read them. Samsung's high-end tablets have a lot of s/w features (EG: Multiview, Scrap Book, eMeeting, SideSync, Hancom Office) that, even if available on the 4's, wouldn't perform well because of lack of SoC power and RAM.

So first, think about what's important feature and performance wise and then think about size. And

really

consider the display. The Pro's and S' have beautiful 2,560x1,600 displays with high PPI that really are a joy to view. Tab 4's not so much.

Here's a size comparison...
[Galaxy Tab S General] mikelp1973:
I wanted to add to this as I've owned a few tablets lately, right now I have the tab s 10.5. I had a tab pro 4 10.1, pass. You won't be happy. It's performance is OK but the screen isn't that great. Plus the lack of vibrate and light sensors just made it feel cheap, I sold mine for 60 bucks, no regrets. I had an iPad air for a bit but I took it back as I tend to leave a lot of things running and, I just didn't like it overall. Now, the tab s. Had it about a week and I've disabled a lot of things and I have apex installed. However I think it's the best tablet I've owned. It's perfectly fast, I've not had a single hiccup doing anything. I love the processor, personally. The screen is amazing although I dialed mine back to the basic setting I find it more accurate that way. Seriously, this was 500 bucks. I a most wish I could not like it so I could return it but I just can't find any faults. I've tried but this is one brilliant machine. I could live without the bloat but like I said I disabled most of it anyway and apex took care of magazine ux. Sure the benchmarks will show snapdragon doing better and even the iPad air but consider this:I found a review that showed the Puffin browser blew every browser away I'm benchmark tests. It wasn't even close so I took UC off and paid for puffin. It's performance was so abysmal I got a refund and put uc back on. I am very happy with the tab s. The titanium bronze just looks superb and it's overall performance is stunning. I didn't want to believe I could like something better than an iPad but Samsung hit it out of the park. If you have the money buy the tab s 10.5 and thank me later. Don't listen to anyone who doesn't have one.
[Galaxy Tab S General] ratman6161:
Let me guess. You are under 50, right? Some of us really need that bigger screen. Of course there are plenty of other reasons for preferring a larger screen. All boils down to personal needs and preferences so blanket statements are always wrong for a certain percentage of users.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
Good guess but wow I didn't think I would hit a nerve. I am sorry I stated an "opinion" .I understand now why someone would want a bigger tablet

[Galaxy Tab S General] BarryH_GEG:
All Samsung's high-end Wi-Fi tablets use the same Exynos 5420 CPU and Mail 628 GPU. The Pro 10.1 has 2GB of RAM vs. 3GB on the Tab S but I've never seen any multitasking complaints on the Pro forum. I've used all Samsung's high-end tablets on 4.4 from the N10.1-14 on. Those with M-UX are laggier than the N10.1-14 without it. The Pro's seem a bit more fluid than the S' but its most likely due to the S' using V1.0 video drivers where the Note/Pro's have been updated about four times. There's a ton of posts in various threads here where former Note/Pro users with Tab S' have commented on a perceived increase in lag in moving to the S. So your experience is definitely different. In using all the tablets none struck me as so different performance wise that I'd be swayed in to buying one over the other solely because of it. That includes S-800 vs. Exynos 5420 (caveat: I'm not a gamer).

Samsung's 2,560x1,600 LCD panels are great and have been rated so in objective testing. They draw less power overall than the AMOLED panels on the S' because their RGBW PenTile and do exceptionally better on whites which kill AMOLED battery life. Most productivity and creation apps utilize light backgrounds so the Pro's would be a better choice battery life wise for productivity and web users and heavy readers. There's no doubt the S' display blacks better and offer better contrast but it doesn't make Samsung's high-end LCDs cow dung either. I'm a

heavy

productivity user and the S' display would absolutely kill me.

Are you sure you had a Pro 10.1? This is from the T-520 manual...

Moral of the story is people should buy what makes them happy, draw their own conclusions based on hands-on time, and realize opinions (including mine ;) ) are just that.
[Galaxy Tab S General] mikelp1973:
It was the tab 4 10.1 my apologies. When I bought this tab s btw I was lookng for the pro in 10.1 for $399. My thoughts were if they didn't have any I'd look for a laptop about in that range or just gwt another ipad air. But as she was unlocking the case I spotted "S". I had my credit card out before she pulled the box out. But the price being $499 almost stopped me which is why I compared it to the Air becau of price only. But I bought the S and like I said I keep the display on basic and disabled everything I could without root. I use Apex pro and I should also mention I use no widgets and a plain background. I do leave a lot of stuff running but still for me performace has been flawless. I can even attest to the WiFi being more powerful than the air as I'm on the road a lot and pick up wifi whereever I can and this is just been the best overall tablet experience I've had.

Yes I would agree the Amoled use more power overall but I keep everything I can themed dark. Also I had a nexus 10 and agree the LCD screens are brilliant. In many ways better

Amoled probably comes down to preference. Or for me I was on the road stopped at the first walmart I could find and they had one. I'm glad. I just wanted to heartily endorse the tab s (10.5). Maybe the only thing I could say is that I liked the feel of Apple's aluminum casing but the titanium bronze has a beauty all its own.
[Galaxy Tab S General] BarryH_GEG:
No worries; your experience being with a Tab 4 vs. a Pro explains a lot. ;) With Samsung carpet bombing the tablet market it's very confusing to the consumer what they're actually buying. I think that's intentional to a degree.

This for $319 looks like a great deal...

...when compared to this for $499

And to the masses, maybe it is. Their standards are a lot lower than an XDA audience's. ;)
[Galaxy Tab S General] IconBoy:
Thanks very much for all the (informative and helpful) replies.

And this is why I came to XDA to ask opinions and suggestions -- I get real world helpful information rather than columns of comparisons on other sites which don't mean much. I'm just your average tablet user...but f I am going to save and buy one...I want to get the best bang-for-the-buck as I won't be buying a tablet every year!
[Galaxy Tab S General] mikelp1973:
I think the best all around is the pro 10.1 inch. Don't get the tab 4 it's $80 more for the pro and you get so much more, the display alone is worth the extra $. Like I said I love the tab S but it just so happened it's what they had. I would say it's well worth the asking price. Stunning 10.5 inch display, performance is stellar, much better than I expected. Had it about a week and I can't bring myself to return it. I returned the nexus 10, sold the tab 4 and returned the iPad air. I look for reasons it seems but I just haven't found a thing to dislike. I even tried since yesterday it just fits me too well.

I just realized the tab pro 10.1 isn't on the list. Get the tab S. Obviously I am biased, but happily.
[Galaxy Tab S General] fletch33:
i own the Tab Pro 10.1 which has better specs than the Tab 4 and also have the Tab S 10.5 and the difference from the extra 1GB Ram and the much updated Touchwiz version of the Tab S makes me not like the Pro 10.1 that much anymore. also the Tab S has much better accessory options in the case keyboard area.

if you are buying something to use for more than 1+ years than spend the money and get the S
[Galaxy Tab S General] fletch33:
i am not using a 3rd party keyboard (video 1)

or

a 3rd party launcher (video 2)

not saying its your 3rd party apps but saying that is not my experience with my Tab S 10.5
[Galaxy Tab S General] moSess:

[Galaxy Tab S General] fletch33:

also it appears from your sig that having issues with your devices may be a problem that has plagued you. sorry yours has issues and possibly you received a faulty unit?
[Galaxy Tab S General] fiend.of.fiends:
I've done so much research but I'm still stuck between the tab s 10.5 and the note pro 12.2. I would be getting the LTE version on AT&T. I research alot online like going through comments, forums. I also play games, watch videos, pictures. I want speed because i absolutely hate when things freeze, lag, our Judy pain don't do what I want it to. It seems like every pro/con of one the other has a counter equally as tempting.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
If you don't like lag than you probably don't want a Samsung device
[Galaxy Tab S General] fiend.of.fiends:
Well I'm limited to what is available from AT&T. also I'm against Apple products. What would you suggest? Ireally like those two but I want the lesser of two evils.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
I prefer the Tab S .I have the Tab S 8.4 and it runs way better with lollipop
[Galaxy Tab S General] fiend.of.fiends:
I would leave it stock. When do you think if ever would I get the update for lollipop on either? Also I wonder about the screen problems associated with amoled screens.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
Not sure about the Tab S and so far as long as I keep a decent grip on the tablet I won't have to worry about the screen.

I will say that my S4 smashed easily from ear to counter top when I lost grip of it.
[Galaxy Tab S General] PreVoiD:
If you are planning on buying one of the above mentioned tablets, I'll recommend you to wait a few weeks. Samsung is finally upgrading the Tab S and releasing a Tab S2 in several configurations, from SM-T750 and SM-T751 to SM-T755. We'll also hopefully see a better price on the already existing oldish Tab S.

EDIT: http://tablet-news.com/2015/01/03/s...s-currently-in-works-according-to-some-leaks/
[Galaxy Tab S General] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Any possibille specs on those?
[Galaxy Tab S General] PreVoiD:
I'm afraid I don't have access to any specs at the moment. However, one can be certain the chipset finally will be able to cope with Touchwiz without any lag. This together with a better performance overall will sure make the Tab S2 to an awesome tablet.
[Galaxy Tab S General] MarkLI88:
I have the Tab S 10.5 and love it, I am completely stock and have not witnessed any lag with what I do. I mostly use my tablet to watch Netflix, read books, check my e-mail and browse the web. I think the comments that this tablet lags are very subjective, I would never consider returning my tablet due to lag issues.
[Galaxy Tab S General] fiend.of.fiends:
I've heard so much mixed reviews about the lag. Some say it's blazing fast others laggy all the time. Must just be the slight variety in production?... Or perspective? Also the thought of an enhanced tab s makes me light up inside. Although I wonder if they'll make a new 12.2 sized tablet with amoled screen. That screen is beautiful. That's my main hang up... I either get bigger screen or better screen. Also the tab s has exynos and the note 12.2 has snapdragon at AT&T. From studying them people prefer the snapdragon but test results kind of show the exynos being better... I May just have not researched well enough. Seems like a complete toss up between these two. Like a coin flip of whether or not either Will be as good or bad as anyone says. Sorry about the seemingly long post.
[Galaxy Tab S General] wosiek:
Sprint LTE variant of the Tab S 10.5 (SM-T807) - loving this tablet. The SAMOLED screen is nothing short of amazing - streaming video from Netflix or HBO Go in beautiful, crystal-clear HD with rich, brilliant color. Have not experienced any hint of a stutter with graphic-intensive games, either. The Snapdragon 800 SoC is fully capable of handling just about anything thrown at it.

Hoping that a stock Lollipop update is in the works.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Well Done Sheldon:
I've got a Tab S 10.5 and I think it's great. I play lots of games on it, never lags. Was able to remove most of the bloatware without root. I use the Nova launcher and I have no complaints.
[Galaxy Tab S General] juDGEY2k10:
I moved from the sony tablet z to the tab s 10.5

The difference is amazing defo the best tablet i have touched.
[Galaxy Tab S General] fiend.of.fiends:
So much love for the tab s. Now that I've heard that there might be a new release soon for the tab s2 I wanna wait. Anyone have any idea of how long it should take for release? Also any rumors about a new 12.2?... Or just a Samsung tablet that is a note and has samoled but at least 10 inches or above? Oh man... If they came out with a tab s 2 note 10.5 & 12.2 I'd have my perfect tablet. So long as the specs are up to par with being newer so better. I'd get the 12.2 of this imaginary future tab note.
[Galaxy Tab S General] singhsta:
Ended up here somehow but I read all the comments as I just bought a tablet. And I was in the same boat as you regarding getting 12.2 or tab S 10.5. I went to best buy and compared both hand in hand (couldn't compare weight as they were tied down). I would agree that Tab S screen is better than 12.2 but 12.2's screen isnt bad either. I got a good deal on 12.2 note pro new for $429 (no tax) from newegg. So I bought the 12.2 and stylus seems pretty cool as I like to draw sometimes. Also the extra screen real estate looked awesome.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Hisma:
my son threw my tablet on the ground, inside a book cover, and the screen cracked. $199 to replace :(

Finally got it fixed tho and the screen looks better than I remembered. My son no longer touches my tablet :)
