True. Thank god for community developers!

<BEGIN RANT>

Samsung have always had poor support for their Exynos devices. Their open source support is even worse. I mean, who the hell distributes a linux kernel and then releases the source as a 2GB tarball that takes hours to download, with no commit history or a shred of documentation to go along with it? That's right, Samsung does. That is also why their kernels are scarcely upgraded--because there is no official git repo where people can submit commits to and keep development going for improving Samsung's own products. That being said, even mainline Linux has better support for the Exynos platform than Samsung's stock kernels. I mean how is it that mainline Linux supports pretty much every functionality on Exynos5420 whereas Samsung's stock SM-P600 frankenstein kernel remains just barely functional?

<END RANT>

Not that it matters much though, since the community is perfectly capable of making up for Samsung's unwritten policy of poor overall support. Again, thank god for community developers! :) :p

Oh but it already has received several fantastic Lollipop upgrades of various flavours! No thanks to Samsung, because of their "poor support" policy.

Yep, there's LiquidSmooth, Temasek, and EOS. Maybe a fourth one soon.

LiquidSmooth maintainer for d2usc/vzw & p600
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] murigny64:
Hello.

I think the chance to have update on P600/601 is the same as the others models.

1) P600/601 have updates on 4.3 and 4.4: Samsung maintains this model up to date.

2) P601 have success for the 3g fonctionality, so Samsung can't ignore that, and P600 have the same hardware.

Believe on it :good:

Android 4.4 Reversing Camera Mirror With A10,A23,A33 CPU​

These mirrors come in many different flavours now. At time of edit post A33 x5 quadcore is the latest with 16GB. This newer unit can be rooted with kingroot apk version. I find I lose root after reboot for some reason. I haven't found a firmware for this mirror version as of yet. For some reason my mirror does not have a wifi antenna attached so poor signal unless 4 meters line of sight. Please becareful as from experience from buying 3 mirrors now, there can be huge differences to build quality even thou they look the same.

I'm not updating this thread with RT01 firmware anymore. Please check Baidu link below

Also need this to load firmware to TF/microsd

PhoenixCard_V310_20130618.rar

To load new firm run Phoenixcard - Select image - Insert TF card/ Microsd - Choose burn (Try until magic) - Insert Tf Card into mirror and shutdown - After mirror firmware loaded you must format to normal or Tfcard will flash mirror again on reset

You may also find your firmware here. Let me know if you can't download it(use iPad to view)

Just got this item off eBay. Url removed

Screen looks great. Touch screen works a treat. Nice and bright and good angle also.

There are a few things different listed that the seller on eBay has not listed correct.

It comes with android 4.4.2 And not 4.0

Has a A23 dual core and not A10

Kernel version 3.4.39

And it has a battery which would last a couple of days with no use - make sure you turn off wifi when not on power

This is a true android with some very basic functions missing. Starting it has no google services. So no google play store, no where to login to google account in settings. The launcher looks good(you can't change it) expect there is no access to app list. You can click on navi button - which holds no navigation software funny enough. Once inside the navi button you can hold on the screen and then it brings you up a app selection screen giving you option to add icons(still no gps map softwares)

Once connected to Internet apps start updating when you open them which is pretty cool.. There is an update option under andriod version screen which fails to find any update with an error(searches Internet for update or you can local upload file).

Overall I'm pretty impressed with this device and its speed. I was able to install google maps by browser. But once I closed it I could not open it again cause no icon to click on. Google maps ran a little bit sluggish but was acceptable. I'm now chasing the seller for a solution to google play store as the play store ask won't open after installing.
[Connected Car] Decapper:
I was able to side load apps quite easily with the browser. Seems most work if the don't depend on play store or accounts being setup in google settings.

Synic gps software won't work as it wants to use playstore to download more files.

Es explorer works fine.

I don't think I will be able to get root access as there is no developer menu, but after clicking on firmware build number says you are already a developer
[Connected Car] superboost:
i have this one and have Google playstore, i have installed nova launcher without problem, all is fine
[Connected Car] Decapper:
Hi, is it model rt01?

Do you have the same firmware 4.4.2 and specs?

Does it have an option to add google account inside android OS?

As mentioned above no google account in my OS which means no history in google maps. Very frustrating.

Could I also grab the seller as I my have to purchase a new one

Thank you if you can help

Thanks for your help appreciated.

Need to try a scab a firmware update as my seller refuses to speak with me now.

Might just buy what you got I think.
[Connected Car] superboost:
you can try to communicate via aliexpress with the store, seller is Mr wilson cao and ask him for a firmware, it's a pleasant person who respond to me very fast, also after my purchase for details. Try to say you're a friend of me (Superboost) and have same miror and you want the same OS, give a try, good luck.

[Connected Car] Decapper:
I have seen a update.zip file for root on the net. I was thinking doing it that way.

I'll give it another go as I was more focused on gapps.zip before.
[Connected Car] Decapper:
Do you have development option to activate usb debugging? I don't have this option, so it makes it hard for me.

That's why I suggested an update.zip method.

If you have usb debugging (lucky you) then try http://www.shuame.com/en/root/

Also sent a msg to your seller. I think he would have to be very nice to give time for nothing being a business man
[Connected Car] superboost:
I have not the "usb debugging option" and no more the menu security for the possibility to "accept unknown sources" option. I think it will be impossible to root the item.....

[Connected Car] Decapper:
It's a puzzle..

You have an img file.. And Phoenixcard..

Putting in sdcard and selecting startup it puts the android OS on the sdcard and you boot from that so you can test the image I suppose.

Could not see any google account. Also I have alarm next to the radio icon. When I put this one on I got the browser instead.

Can I ask under settings about tablet is your build number 20150410 ?
[Connected Car] superboost:
in the info i have : rt01-eng 4.2.2 KVT49L 20150410 test-keys

It's seem that is the same build than downloaded

perhaps puting applications in "download" folder of the program will put them on the image for flashing ?
[Connected Car] Decapper:
Thank you so much. You are a legend.

Its as I figured.

running the phoniexcard program you select Startup to run off sdcard.. which is way slow.

So I took the plunge and hit production and it setup my sdcard which in turn updated my unit.

Now its usable and I cant thank you enough!
[Connected Car] superboost:
have you all you want in ? Google account possible? the next challenge : rooting...

---------- Post added at 01:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 PM ----------

Just enjoying play store for the moment..

Plus I've noticed a huge increase in speed.

[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
You speak wisdom as always. I'm stuck with official touchwiz lollipop on my phone (GS4 Active) and it's just hideous. I mean you can always expect that from touchwiz, but now with all the white, and paler shades of blue and teal it honestly looks like girl colors/designed for a girl's phone. And sorry if that comes off sexist but that's just not the color theme I want at all. Plus G-D it I hate navigating Touchwiz's convoluted navigation, not to mention its stock apps options (file explorer, media players, office suite, etc.) are, as always, inferior in nearly every possible way to the many third-party options out there. Sorry to hijack this thread, but I just felt like someone had to mention the negative aspects of 5.0 touchwiz. AOSP remains as always the better choice for those who prefer real control over their devices.

Good eyes, thanks for that. [MENTION=5864662]moonbutt74[/MENTION] [MENTION=5704037]repey6[/MENTION] [MENTION=3132221]sub77[/MENTION] I was not aware but it appears the official lollipop update is going live for the t535 and t530. Obviously I'm downloading the t530 file already. My reason for bothering you guys is I think someone is going to have to take the images, modem, etc. from the tar and make it into a zip that is flashable with FlashFire, in order to be able update while keeping root. We've done it for my locked-bootloader phone (AT&T S4 Active) so I assume it's doable here, as I assume towelroot can't root lollipop. If somebody more knowledgeable wants to weigh in now, please do...

Edit: User Android21 is referring to this page's info which leads me to believe LP actually is going out over the air....

Editt: [MENTION=4644109]g_ding84[/MENTION] you're also very smart and very good at this crap, just wanted to make sure you see this too, I'm sure the 7.0 crowd will start clamoring for a keep-root update once your updates go live too.

Edittt: In case anyone cares the t530 LP build is region PHE (Spain) and the one for t535 is region NEE (Finland). Idk what effect if any that will have

Editttt: Now downloading both firmware builds (i.e. t530 and t535)

Editttt: I'll have these files shared with you guys most likely by around 8:00 PM (16:00) EDT (midnight, 0:00 GMT/UTC I guess), possibly sooner but no guarantees
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] mrkhigh:
They are unlocked boot loader devices unless bought by carrier.... We just need an Odin flashable recovery that suits lollipop from there we would attain root. I am unsure if the current one does or not. For the boot loader locked ones I believe you are quite correct in the use of flash fire.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
Sweet that's more or less what my line of thinking was, I just wanted to err on the side of safety (safety of course meaning rootable lol). No matter what, I'm downloading both files and uploading to AFH, that's a given. So what I'm thinking is for the carrier-branded devices, assuming they were able to root on KitKat, they'll need a FlashFire update.

For the unlocked bootloader devices, I'm guessing we keep doing the trick where we Odin flash an older kernel, run towelroot, and then flash the current kernel? I can tell you from actual personal experience this particular method will not work on a locked bootloader going from KK to LP (just so everyone is crystal clear). However with our unlocked bootloaders, my question is, will lollipop boot after flashing a kitkat kernel? I don't know enough about kernels to even know how stupid a question that is, if it is...
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Um. . If the devices that have bootloader unlocked already, you could simply flash twrp/cwm then flash supersu zip in twrp. Yeah it will trip Knox but that would be the only way. KK kernels and Lollipop kernels don't mix with each other.

For locked bootloader (att), they need FlashFire.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thelous:
Uh, they updated page from in developing to pending... any one have clue what it means?

Ah well my weekend just got even better.

these updates are all good for flashing with odin right?
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
Yes but only if you have the SM-T530 or SM-T535. Also I haven't heard of anyone rooting successfully yet, although I haven't heard that it definitely isn't possible either.

We won't be able to do the trick of flashing an older kernel to use towelroot (lollipop & kitkat kernels don't play nicely together), but for all of us with unlocked bootloaders (i.e. everyone who doesn't have an AT&T or Verizon branded model) it should be as simple as flashing TWRP with Odin and then flashing the SuperSU zip in TWRP to root. I could be wrong however

Oh wow first lollipop rom came out 24 hrs and you r alrdy rooting it! i want lollipop theme to my 7" tab! Any one know if it comes this week or next week?
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
Lol trying to root it, I always figure it's better to be proactive since people will be asking soon no matter what. Sorry to say but nobody on this forum can tell you when something is coming out before it does; it is all pure speculation. For the 10.1, people had been having a lively discussion on it for a few weeks now, then yesterday was fairly quiet until a user Android21 basically just came in like, "Hey I think lollipop was just released."

TLDR: Nobody knows for sure when lollipop is being released but everyone is going to guess anyway. That's all it is, speculation
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] V-incent:
yea i read that might work. lets first get this six hour download done :silly:

Maybe request CF-auto root?
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
Don't do the 6 hour download, I uploaded them to a host that'll hopefully be a 5-10 min download at most. Thread with links here. There already is CF-auto root for these devices for kitkat, I have no idea if it'll work with lollipop. Since I don't know much about it, I'll automatically assume the old cf-auto root will not work on lollipop
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] V-incent:
you sir, deserved a thanks:laugh:
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] pre4speed:
On the FlashFire front, I tried it on my 337a and did not have good results. Once installed and granted root, I tried a backup. I saw the warning about the screen flashing, then it would proceed. Well for a terrifying 5 minutes, the tablet went black and stopped responding completely. No amount of button combos, force restarts or anything worked. Finally after holding down power for a good full 2 minutes, it came back to life. I looked in the backup folder it created, and only the folder was there. So not sure what happened, or if it evens works for the 337a, but at this point, I'm not going to take my chances until if/when someone more knowledgeable can test further.
