No pressure, but no donations, no Hyperdrive

About Hyperdrive ROM for the Note Pro 12.2

Sbreen is willing to develop his Hyperdrive Rom for our device, but he needs a tablet. I can get him a tablet at a discount, but it still will cost in the $250 - 300 range. So far I only see one $40.00 donation, which is good, but not enough to proceed.

Again, if interested in helping fund the purchase of a tablet for Sbreen then please let me know. Also, the tablet that I would purchase would be the Wifi model, as that one seems to be the most popular varient.

No pressure - I just wanted to give an update.

Thanks,

Barb

Is there somewhere online you could set up a page to allow people to make actual donations & see how much has been & needs yet to be raised? Something kickstarterish. I think that would get more responses & avoid the issue of broken promises upon your attempt to collect on them. What are kickstarter's fees like? Once such a page is set up you can then get readers to attempt to promote the url as well as make a donation.

BTW Put me down for $20.

[Edit] Kickstarter style rewards could work quite well if the dev is willing to allow some minimal aspects to be dictated to some extent by the donors. Even just a mention in the credits. Is the dev reading this thread?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] nabour:
Good idea, but I don't have extra time to research kickstarter. I am pretty busy with my day job -- all I was hoping to do was provide a paypal account and collect donations.

Also, responding to your other question, I am not sure if Scott Breen is monitoring this thread. Here is a little history:

I have "worked' with Scott in the past -- several months ago he had agreed to develop Hyperdrive for the Note 10.1, and we were able to get him that tablet, and he is still developing. I believe he just uploaded a new ROM version recently. I used Hyperdrive on my Note 3 smartphone, and then on the Note 10.1 (which I don't even use anymore because I love this 12.2 much.)

At any rate, I contacted him a week or so ago and asked if he might be willing to do the same for the 12.2 (which I now use exclusively.) His response was that he will be happy to do so if Ican find him a test tablet. I was just thinking if people who use the 12.2 would like Hyperdrive then they would contribute $20-40 and we could get going. But the response has been slow, so I suspect the interest is just not there.

If someone else would like to take over collecting funds that would be great.

Barb
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] cauli:
Understood. Shame though. A few ppl did say they'd donate above, they just didn't specify an amount. Could those ppl post their offers? I guess you'd only need ten to twenty or so & if you get close maybe a few will up their existing offer. Would mentioning this thread in other subforums here be allowed & get anymore attention? Any mods reading?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] tdetroit:
Would this only be for the Regular NON-Verizon N12.2? I have the Verizon variant with Root, and if something like this could be done, I'd gladly help by donating.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] sbreen94:
Yes i know about this thread and would be happy to build you guys a killer rom for your device. Posting your pledges of what you feel is reasonable in the thread is great.

Thanks for your support and lets get it rocking in here :good:

Recap of donations

Hi guys,

To date it looks like we have $80 in pledges

fokus $20

muzzy996 $40.00

cauli $20.00

almost half way there. I will keep tracking and keep everyone updated. Please help spread the word -- it would be so nice to have Hyperdrive running these tablets!

Thanks again,

Barb

PS - In case anyone wonders, I am not donating because my donation will be in the acquiring of the tablet and postage to get it to developer. That will run about $25.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] jimbob_sf:
I'll throw in $20. This POS needs a light rom. My G3 just started to perform like my G2 now that it has Liquid on it. Hyperdrive will do the same for das boot
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] m_carleone82:
put me $10...

I would like to ask, if he will add Note 4 spen functions to this tablet.. which is most important case for me.. NOTE4 aircommand,, not Note3

??
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] muzzy996:
2nd.

Also, having corner swipe on full screen apps to make them windowed would be epic.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] sbreen94:
Most likely will be able to be ported once the note pro gets 4.4.4 firmware
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] trevorcobb:
i'd be down to contribute $20 toward development of hyperdrive for my SM-P900
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] SugeLover:
What firmware version are you on? Just want to make sure N4 can be rooted before I update.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] m_carleone82:
4.4.4 exist?

is there any note pro updated to 4.4.4 already? such verizon,
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] FreshlyBrewed:
I'd be willing to contribute £20 (or whatever that is in $) but only if it's possible to port to the SM P905 as well. Wouldn't it be more prudent to wait for a build based on Lollipop though?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] JarkMackson:
I have the verizon model and I'll put in $50 if we can get it for that version. I dont think there is a custom recovery for the 905v though, so there is that issue too.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] larkhillv:
Custom ROM that keeps S Pen functionality? I'd chip in $20 for that.

---------- Post added at 11:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 PM ----------

It's unlikely that this tab will see Lollipop any time soon, if ever. It's a pretty niche device since the market and OEMs have more or less settled somehwere between 7-10". We are in the minority lol at least for now.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] FreshlyBrewed:
Well I may just be kidding myself but I'm keeping my hopes up! To be honest I think it's a good be we'll get the update eventually, maybe not any time soon though.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] sbreen94:
Nothing a quality customizable 4.4.2 rom can't fix for you guys [emoji2]
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] FreshlyBrewed:
Unfortunately I'm not seeing anything being developed for the P905 variant yet. Also any KitKat ROMs will still be missing the reduced audio latency found in Lollipop.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] alias747:
Ooo... Does that mean you got something cooking up right now??
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] sbreen94:
Unfortunately not without the tablet ?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] JarkMackson:
I'll put in $100 if we can get a recovery and hyperdrive for the 905v.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] nickster1:
I will pledge $25. What are we at now with the other pledges as well?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] muzzy996:
From what I can tell it looks like this:

fokus $20

muzzy996 $40.00

cauli $20.00

qvd $20.00

jimbob_sf $20.00

m_carleone82 $10.00

trevorcobb $20.00

larkhillv $20.00

nickster1 $25.00

Total for SM-P900 (wifi):

$195

Not sure if the OP should include other variant requests in this endeavour though, only sbreen can make that commitment to support other variants.

SMP-905:

FreshlyBrewed £20

SMP-905V (verizon)

JarkMackson $50.00 - revised to $100.00 for recovery AND hypderdrive
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] nabour:
Hi folks,

Originally started this thread thinking we could get Hyperdrive ROM for the 900 wifi variant. I think we can find a good one for around $300.

Now it looks like people want the ROM for the 905 (which may be possible - need to ask the developer), and then a large donation pledged for a ROM and Recovery for the Verizon variant (905v). It was my understanding that Verizon has locked the bootloader on the Note Pro 12.2, and that a custom recovery is not do-able (and thus a ROM is also out of the question.) But I could be wrong. I use safestrap with my Note 3 -- I'm not sure if the Note Pro 12.2 can use safestrap and then a custom ROM would work.

So I got all confused about where this thread is heading. I happy to find the developer a good tablet (once we collect around $300), but we need to agree on the goal -- wifi or otherwise.

Just my thoughts. Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

Barb
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] sbreen94:
I would say that the WiFi version is the version that we should go for as it has the largest amount of users.

I don't see the verizon note pro getting unlocked any time soon so unfortunately I don't think that is going to happen rom wise

Woot has refurbished Note Pro 12.2 on sale for $429. Through tomorrow.

They are also up for sale on Ebay daily for around $350.

I think donations to date are up to $235. Still a way off.

When we top $300 I can start shopping Ebay and keep everybody up to date, unless someone else has a better plan.

Time to contribute ...

Hi folks,

I have found a Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 to send to S Breen... the unit will cost $200. It is the wifi variant - P900.

So I need to collect $200 in donations in order to pay for it. I would like to purchase and mail the unit this coming Friday, so am requesting that donations be made before then.

Those of you who are willing to contribute, will you please send your donation to my paypal account, which is: nabour@yahoo.com

I will post a tally each evening to let you know where we stand, and when we hit $200 I will go buy the tablet and get it in the mail to developer.

If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.

Thanks,

Barb

Nabour,

I have no doubt we can get $200. Problem is people dont check this thread often. I almost missed it myself. Would you lend us $70 so we can get the tablet? And then get the money back later when more people contribute. If you dont have that kind of money or not willing to do it, let me know. I can send the extra $70 so we can buy the tablet and send it to the developer.

I just found out about the Lillopop work for the Note Pro 12.2 and I was able to flash it to my device. Something you're interested? You can keep my $20 and hopefully those who pledged will contribute and get this project going. If this is not going any where then I am happy to have it back :) I will donate it to the developers who helped me.

Keep in mind CM (and AOKP) are not based on Sammy's ROM and it's not fair to compare ASOP based ROMs to ones based on the manufacturer's original ROM. I would hope if Hyperdrive takes off it would remain in development once Lollipop becomes officially released by Samsung.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] nabour:
Done deal

Tablet mailed off to Sbreen today. Thanks to everyone who helped with controbutions
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] sbreen94:
Exactly

Thanks again to everyone, rom will be out shortly for you after i get the tablet next week
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] wingdo:
Very exciting. Looking forward to a release. Will donate once it's out.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] qvd:
Sorry, I am new to this and don't know the differences between all the ROM's. So what is the advantage of the manufacturer's original ROM over ASOP based ROM? Don't we want to move away from stock firmware because of Samsung's bloatware? I would love to try the Hyperdrive once it becomes available.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] sbreen94:
I personally like using TouchWiz roms due to the value adds that it brings including multi window, snote and other spen functionality, none of which aosp roms can provide
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] wingdo:
Most of the real bloat is removed. However, Samsung builds the Note ROMs around the S Pen and no matter how clean ASOP can be, none of those ROMs are built around the S Pen. Some functionality is brought back with add ons but you still lose how closely knit spen functionality is.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] milan188:
I completely agree. Hope there will be work for the LTE variant as well.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] sbreen94:
I will only be building the rom for the tablet i get which i believe will be the WiFi varient p900
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] ColBill:
What would you need to build the ROM for the P905 variant? I believe there are a number of us with the LTE version that would be interested? Regardless thanks for spending the time moving the 12.2 down the development road.:good:
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] sbreen94:
Typically i only do roms for devices that i own but i will look into the changes required for the 905 varient. Is that the Verizon lte varient or a different carrier?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] ColBill:
Thanks for looking - the P905 I use is on the AT&T network (but it is not a AT&T device) Specifically, it is an unlocked GSM Phone, works on US & Int H+/LTE and has a 2.3 Quad-Core CPU - it will work on any system that requires a sim card. Please advise if i can give any additional data. Again, thanks for looking into it. hope it is possible to develop a ROM. Hope you have a wonderful holiday season.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] milan188:
The P905 is the international LTE variant of the Note Pro. The kernel is different but all apps and stuff seem the same
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] sbreen94:
Good to know, thanks for the info. Not sure if i will be able to support 905 due to the radio inclusion in the framework files but I'll check it out
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] larkhillv:

Not had a chance to play with it yet, but I'd likely be very interested in this and would be happy to contribute $20 at my next pay day (23rd Feb - blew my allocation this month on the tab itself and have a baby on the way!).

Not much I know, but maybe $10 each to nabour and sbreen94?

How's the development going? Is S-Pen functionality retained with this ROM?

Thanks for the work on this!

Edit: Ignore the s-pen question; I saw that basing this ROM on touchwiz etc allows you to retain functionality :)
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] nabour:
Hey, guys, send all donations to SBreen. He's the one doing all the work. I ended up "donating" a little more than I had planned, but at this point I get to sit back and enjoy the product.

Can someone please point me to where I can download this ROM? I PM'ed Sbreen94 and his response was "You can download and install the tom from the thread on xda." I asked him for the link but he didn't reply. Maybe he thought I just asked it for free. I am one of the first few people who contributed money to this development.

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] ColBill:
Understand it is difficult to get started flashing a ROM but the threads here have some excellent links and instructions to successfully flash this ROM. Moreover, a google search will give you step by step directions for performing the tasks necessary to flash this or any other custom ROM. These developers work hard to get these custom ROMs to work properly based on hours and hours of research and study. My thought for what's worth is for us users of these products to do some of necessary research to get the benefits of these developers efforts. I have a P905 and can't take advantage of this effort but follow the threads to learn something. As a suggestion you might consider doing some research to better focus your questions on how to flash this ROM.

Hey guys , I am sorry I just found this post !

First I want to to say hello... Sbreen94 You do great work and I am thankful your working on this..

I love hyperdrive rom on note 3 , I haven't changed phones Because of this.

Questions I have, Based on your note 3 rom....

Will this rom, take advantage of battery life ?

On the 4g LTE verison * verizon * which i have.. Will it take advantage of the Duel 1.9 gig quad core and and the 1.3 gig quad core Cpus?

Also its a new type of GPU chipset will this new rom come with new features for it ?

This tablet offers allot of features Stock.. will the same features be included with out the bloat ware ?

I know SBREEN94 is a perfectionist I look forward to trying out this rom * once completed with out issues.. I will donate when needed.

I will be using my tablet for work on a daily bases so Functionality and dependability matter more to me, when customers sign invoices using my tablet...

Not to mention Sbreen94 style always looks nice !

Look forward to hearing back..

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] sbreen94:
The rom has all the features and more that you have come to love about hyperdrive while keeping all stock features and improving performance. However it is only for the WiFi only P900 model as this is the only note pro tablet that i own. So if you have the Verizon lte varient of the tablet, unfortunately it's not going to work for you. :/
