[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melgibson666:
If you can wait for a device that you like (form factor, screen, brand) that has the 810 processor in it, I would wait for that. But if you want a phone this second then the Nexus 6 is a decent choice. With that being said you have a few things to consider.

1)Curved back - For some people this is a deal breaker. Don't ask me why it just is.

2)Large size- At a whopping 5.96" it is large in the average person's hand. I have large hands so this was actually fine for me.

3)Battery life- Because of the screen size the battery life isn't best in class. I will say that it is decent though. You can check threads with users posting their SOT. I on average get about 5.5-6 hours screen on time over the course of a day. (If I ever have time to use it that much.)

But with all those things considered there are a few benefits too, which I'm sure you've heard. When it all comes down to it if you are considering the Nexus 6 the other phone you might want to consider is the Note 4. It is close to the same screen size, same processor, and same battery size. I for one thought the Nexus 6 was the better option because of the Nexus phone support and that it has a bone-stock version of Android. I can't stand Samsung's bloatware.

TL;DR:If you want a phone right now it's a good choice. If you can wait a few months, wait a few months.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
There's no point waiting for a few more months, just a couple months later. the Nexus 6 will be even better because the development will be more mature in terms of custom ROMs and kernels.

Going to a phone that is a non-Nexus will have less development and the software will be more bloated with carrier apps and manufacturer skins. Once you go to a Nexus, you stay a Nexus. If a user is wanting something that works outside of the box and doesn't care too much about development then by all means go to a non-Nexus but if you care about custom ROMs and kernels then Nexus devices are the way to go.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pilz:
I came from a G3 and before that a Note 3

. the Nexus 6 is by far my favorite phone. The development for it is far beyond any other device I have seen, we have kernels, ROMs and everything in between.

The size isn't bad in fact I really like how big it is. It only took a day or two to get used to. Note when I use my wife's Moto X 2014 or S5 its like looking at a iPhone 4. While here may be other devices out there shortly with the SD810 its not going to be as good without devs working on making it better. I had the G3 F460S which had the SD805 and it was much slower than the Nexus with the same processor. LG didn't optimize the chip set well enough to make it worth the upgrade over the regular G3. My antutu score with it was ~46K which is the same as the Moto X that my wife has which is 100% stock. While my G3 was rooted and tweaked with some mods at the time.

The AMOLED display looks great compared to a LCD and its very responsive.

It boils down to preference and I love my Nexus and will buy the next one as well.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melgibson666:
Nexus phones aren't the end all be all. Usually they have the most developer support but buying something just because it's a Nexus branded phone sounds an awful lot like those "Fruit" buying fanboys that will buy anything their cult favorite company puts out.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lucke:
i would also add that battery life is the most subjective issue. it literally depends on how you use the phone. if you're playing games or generally playing around with your phone, your battery life will suck. i use mine as a phone and tool for work and music in the gym and i get 2+ days of use.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vvveith:
Comes down to this....

If you like to tinker and have the time to spend doing so, the Nexus is the obvious choice. If on the other hand you spend more time doing things, working, recreation, socializing, then another phone will probably suit you better. Unfortunately this was my first Nexus device, and I got it thinking that it would be great to have a phone without all the carrier bloat. After getting it I found that many things I've come to consider standard in a phone, settings, options, etc. are sadly not present and probably will be in time with tinkering and trial and error, but I no longer have the time nor the patience to experiment on a device that I paid a large premium for that just seems to not only be crippled by sloppy software but also with possible hardware inconsistencies. I am lucky that I can jump any time I want and probably will here as soon as more devices come to market. But one thing the Nexus will do for you is help you to appreciate the care that other manufacturers put into their devices to support many features and options that a pure android device does not. So, with that in mind, make your won decision and live with it.

IMO, it's overpriced based on the quality of screen and some parts they used + poor QC.

Will NU work with non NU

I am going to buy this tablet in a few weeks and I live in Australia and the model here does not have NU at the end but just T330. Will this ROM and any other NU ROM work with my tablet? Sorry for the noob question, but I am new to the tablet.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkusMcNugen:
To be honest, I'm not 100% sure. It should, the only difference between the T330 and the T330NU that I've been able to find is the T330NU has an IR blaster so it can be used as a remote control. No kernel is included with the ROM, so you are more than safe to install it after making a backup. If it works, let me know. If not, Ill figure out why and make it compatible.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lachiepower0402:
Should I make a backup through CMW or through the settings?

Once I get the device which like I said is in 3 weeks, I will try the device out for about a week to see how it works and get used to it and then backup and install the ROM and compare it to the stock and then post my comments on the forum.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkusMcNugen:
CWM or TWRP. Either one will work. As long as you have a backup of your system partition in one of those you will be good to go. Sounds good, I'll be waiting.

Hopefully there will be a few more updates by that time. I keep getting errors when decompiling SecSettings which is pissing me off. I'll just have to keep at it until I figure it out. Doesn't make any sense to me.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lachiepower0402:
Sounds good, the more updates the better!

As with the error's you are getting, I have no idea what your talking about, so I'l just agree :)
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkusMcNugen:
Lol. Its all good. I got it figured out. What I was working on was enabling S5 Settings Mod in SecSettings.apk (aka. Settings on Samsung devices). Its not finished but it works more than well enough so its in the new SuperStocked version. ;)
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lachiepower0402:
So I have received my tablet early and it was easier than I thought to use it, so I have decided to install your ROM, I have already installed TWRP v2.8.3.0 and it works and I am currently backing up my tablet to my external sd card and then I will attempt to try and install the Superstocked.

Do you want me to try out both of your rom's?
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lachiepower0402:
I have flashed superstock and I have a few problems, when i flashed it had an error with unmounting or something like that and the keyboard is not very good it looks like android 4.2 keyboard and I do not have root access. I tried towelroot but i still do not have root access.

I think I will go back to 100% stock.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustZaphod:
If Towel Root does not work, then try flashing SuperUser via TWRP

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053

Edit, This rom is just a Deodexed version of the 100 percent Stock ROM... There are subtle differences, but the root method is the same..
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkusMcNugen:
If you happen to flash it again in the future, could you copy the recovery log so I can see the unmounting error. Its Advanced > Copy log to SD. I don't know what could have caused that but I doubt it had any effect on the ROM after booting.

As for the keyboard. It defaults to looking like 4.2 keyboard but with a number row because the ROM is kitkat. If you go into the keyboard settings you can change the theme to the material design themes.

I've been having a lot of issues with root. The su binaries are included as well as all the su files. It works fine for some people and it doesn't for others. Flashing the latest SuperSU will give you root. I'll add a link to it in the OP later today and mention root issues.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lachiepower0402:
I have installed the stock v1.2 and I am still having root problems, if you can provide the su package I will try that out.

What I meant yesterday was in twrp when I was formatting the message was

E: error sending message to add storage 65537

Also I am wondering if it is alright to close or disable some system apps that are using ram such as

DeviceTest

SmartcardService

Context Service

PageBuddyNotiSvc

ELM Agent

Nearby devices

Unified Daemon

If so, how would I go about doing it?
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkusMcNugen:
Here's the SuperSU flashable zip:

http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu

The error you saw in TWRP was an error from trying to mount and unmount MTP. It happens on all of our devices but doesn't affect anything. So no worries when you see it.

If you want to disable/freeze apps you can use an app from the play store like Greenify or Titanium Backup. Titanium Backup can also remove system apps but I wouldn't recommend doing that without making a backup of the app you want to remove first.

However, if you just want to disable some services but not the entire app you can download and use Disable Service from the play store.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lachiepower0402:
Thanks for clearing the meaning of that error. I have flashed the su zip and I now have root.

Lastly, is possible to reset the flash counter, so if I take my tablet in for repair my warrnty will be valid?
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkusMcNugen:
That I'm not sure of. I imagine there is but I haven't looked into trying any of the reset counters made for other Samsung devices on the T330/NU. You would probably need to make your own thread and ask in the help section.

My device was seller refurbished so I don't have a warranty. Otherwise I could probably help you out.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wire55:
I talked to samsung about the knox thing and I was told I still had a 1yr warranty from purchase date no matter what.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lachiepower0402:
Really? Samsung put implemented knox so people wouln't flash rom's but they don't care! Something doesn't seem right here. I'll believe you and just hope that nothing happens to my tablet, just in case they change their mind.

Hi

I'm very thankful that someone is doing IT for the 8 inch tab. :)

I'm reading a lot over the years in this forum, but this is my first post lol.

I'm running a tn330nuueu1anca with se enforced

Feedback:

Su works out of the box like everything else but

Viper sound mod doesn't

I used my own in initd script...

U still have some Samsung apps and bloatware left ,:

Dropboxoobe

Street view

Faceunlock

Samsung push

And2 other that I already deleted .... I do love the work u done !!! How about a customs kernel :)
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wire55:
Yes really. I was told that I was guaranteed my warranty fr the device no matter what the knox warranty void said.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkusMcNugen:
Yeah, I was hoping Viper4Android would work on our devices in compatability mode since selinux is enforcing. I haven't had time to actually test it myself, but I did notice that it did ask for a driver install even though I preinstalled and registered the audio driver.

To be honest, street view and face unlock are from paranoid android gapps. I've integrated PA gapps into our ROM over the included gapps. DropboxOOBE I kept because I assumed that was the apk that gave people 50GB of Dropbox space, if not I'll remove it.

Some things I didn't remove because I couldn't find information on them. I only removed stuff I knew was safe to remove. I'm working on getting a kernel with at least init.d by unpacking, editing, and repacking but I'm not planning on trying to find the source and compile a new kernel.

See below.

It may be possible that they as a manufacturer don't care. When I had my Motorola I was told by them that they could care less if you rooted it or installed a custom ROM. The manufacturer warranty was applicable either way, it was the carriers that cared and charged for replacements of rooted devices. I have no idea if that applies to Samsung, but its possible I guess.

Samsung devices also include Knox for the enterprise and security. So a company can purchase Samsung devices and guarantee their devices and network aren't compromised. The NSA even said that Knox was secure enough for the government to use it.

http://www.pcworld.com/article/2836612/samsung-knox-devices-approved-for-government-use-by-nsa.html

You would need to contact Samsung yourself to find out. My device has no warranty. I'm sailing solo lol.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lachiepower0402:
I think i've recieved enough evidence to find a conclusive answer, so I will try not to break my device, but know that if I do, I will be able to repair it.

On another note, I have uninstalled the packages mentioned and that freed up a bit of RAM. Is their any other things that I can uninstall? I have already uninstalled a lot more packages anyway, but I might of missed something.

Also, a kernal would be good, so I can change voltages, etc.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkusMcNugen:
It's more or less a guessing game. I have to be careful about what I remove from the ROMs so they work out of the box they way people may need. Ive done almost all the debloating I could without breaking stuff, but I'll remove apks if it's confirmed they are useless bloat. I basically just google search the name of the apk and see if there is any mention of what it does, then remove it and see if it broke anything.

A lot of getting this ROM going is just testing. As for the kernel, I don't know where to get the kernel source for our devices. The most I can do is unpack the boot.img and add my own scripts. I'm working on getting init.d in the kernel, and possible seeing if I can get root integrated into the kernel. That's about the best I can do.

I generally only have time to work on the ROM on weekends. Add in having to test everything all the time and trying to figure out why something didn't work and I just don't have as much time as I'd like...
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkusMcNugen:
This will be fixed and working in the next update this weekend.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lachiepower0402:
Another question, will you ever implement ART into your ROM, because if it was enabled, I could see the tablet being a lot faster. In the mean time, is it at all possible to enable ART? I have heard that with the 7" model that it can be enabled but it goes in a boot loop. Is that the same with this model?
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkusMcNugen:
I can try. But chances are if it doesn't work on the 7" it won't work for the 8". For the most part they run the same software. Some of the system files were compiled specific to its hardware, but for the most part they are the same. This ROM was apparently flashed onto a T230NU by someone and it booted just fine. Who knows how many errors were being thrown while booting but my points made.

I'll try but don't hold your breath. Without a device tree and kernel source I don't think it will be possible. From what I've read the problem with the bootloop has to do with the kernel not supporting ART. If true that means no ART without custom compiled kernels.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lachiepower0402:
I did try this method of turning on ART

http://androidhackz.blogspot.com.au/2014/07/how-to-switch-from-dalvik-to-art.html

But when I changed the text of the file and rebooted, it created a new file called exactly the same name, with the original text and used it.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkusMcNugen:
That's because Samsung doesn't include the libart.so lib file with our devices. Hence why they completely removed the option from settings.

EDIT: Okay, after some digging I've found a few things. libart.so and libart-compiler.so are not included with our devices in the /system/lib folder. core-libart.jar isn't included in /system/framework. And it appears that persists.sys.dalvik.vm.lib is mentioned several times in the framework files and some lib files.

I don't think its possible on our stock Roms. Probably on a custom ROM like CM or LS, but not stock.

SuperStock and Beyond

Hello,

I have the T 330 NU model. Got it to replace a few other unnecessary devices I had laying around.

I'm a long supporter of all things android., and hate when other's like Samsung try to put their own spin on it to make it more appealing. I think that they went overboard with touchwiz since it was unnecessary from the get go. If Samsung gave a choice of UI for the consumers instead I bet they would sell more products in the long run.

So far this device does exactly what I need it for. Only thing that I have a issue is unnecessary touch wiz lagging my device I paid $200 for. I use this device in so many ways productively that I would pay more just to have pure android if I could afford it. Pure android with SDcard capabilities is a huge deciding factor or I would have the Nexus 7 still.

That all being said, As a father of 3 and a husband who juggles that and maintains a good job and goes to college. I more than get how time management can become a joke especially when you express your exhaustion to anybody else who can't sympathize your same situation.

Looking forward to next build of SUPER STOCKED. I didn't get a chance to install that version.

Any chancel of designing a ROM for individuals who not only have handicaps with there vision and or sensitivity to light? A ROM that uses the absolute lowest pixel amount or pure black for every thing in the UI.

Thanks just a thought. I know I am more than willing to add any support needed I don't have much experience but if donations help them sign me. Time is more than just money, but it helps make life easier giving more time for play.

Thank you for your time.​
