[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] w11184:
The tablet was good before the software was pretty bad which makes the whole experience of using it not enjoyable. After installing the new firmware, I feel like I've got a brand new device. It is absolutely brilliant. It is fast and the interface is improved. I would recommend to do it anyone who hasn't yet.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] blinkingled:
I second it - update made the table much smoother, the battery life is better, the multitasking is also noticeably better. In fact I would not be pissed if it stays on 5.1.1 for the rest of its life given I will get WebView updates from Play Store now and there aren't any annoyances left (except that flashing PHE ROM on XAR has made the tablet immediately go back to sleep after waking up giving not enough time to enter password. But that seems to be fixed by using built in Samsung keyboard (which also has gotten better.). I will reflash the official XAR update when it's out but for now this is great.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] priccis:
If you use SNote app, i have to warn you that Samsung brought back a annoying "feature" from pre-kitkat releases. The app sets up the bright to the maximum for you to "write better" and "drain the battery faster"

It seems not disable-able.

It was a weird bug in my tablet with the auto brightness feature. Disabled/enabled x 3. and finally is working normally.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] skarlito:
there are some bugs it seems.Auto brightness slider sometimes dissappear and the main problem for me comes with my sd card.It can't read it and whole tablet misbehave as long as its mounted.At KK it was ok.And the Snote full brightness bug won't go away no matter how many times i check uncheck auto brightness.

although whole perfomance is much better.

New XAR Frimware

I downed the XAR verison of the lolliplop firmware with Samfirm in 2 mins... installed it after a wipe and couldn't get a version of TRWP to flash. The only difference I see is a different version number and a new playstore compared to the Spain version. So of course no root for now, if anyone has any luck getting TRWP installed and rooted please let us know.

Good news is 5 GHz wifi shows up.

Might be something on your end. I installed XAR, without factory reset, over PHE and all seems to be working, maybe it's my imagination, smoother than PHE did and I was quite pleased with PHE. This is definitely what this tablet should have been all along.

EDIT: BTW, mine is 100% stock, never been rooted.

Please help. I am very confused. I have a Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition, model SM-P600. It is currently running Android 4.3, but when I do settings>general>about device>software update>update, the bar darkens as if it received my touch, but nothing happens. It doesn't even go and check to see if any new version is available and tell me I am up to date. I have chatted with Samsung tech support and they tell me the current version for this tablet is 4.3. But you guys are talking about 5.1 OTA. It seems like there should be SOME update for my tablet.

Or, did I just wait so long that it isn't automatic for me anymore?

Try factory reset, then don't restore from backup and try ota update on near stock.

After messing around with it last night and having Odin 3.10.7 crash on me when trying to flash twrp :eek: it was interesting to note that after booting with the update and reverting to 3e recovery, that twrp 2.8.6 would not odin over (just stayed at the 'waiting for device' or whatever that was called). I actually had to follow the directions and odin 287. :D I just like 286 because touch still works. I can probably just go back to 286 now I'm assuming... but thought it was interesting.

For those with lagging problems (this is going to sound like the tf700 days..) format your data! At least on this device formatting data is warp speed compared to the tf700... that thing took better part of half an hour to format... :p

Kernel: 3.4.39-1462259
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] buhohitr:
OK, here we go:

Prep:

1) Download the tool to your PC from here http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647

Then use the tool to download 5.1.1 rom (very fast download). set model=sm-p600, region=XAR, put a check in "Auto" and "Decrypte automatically"

2) Download TWRP 2.8.7.0 tar file to your PC here https://dl.twrp.me/lt03wifiue/ (you must use Spen to navigate, touch won't work)

3)Download patched boot zip to your PC here http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3554181&d=1448393686 . Unzip the file then copy the .img file to your sdcard

4) Download SuperSu zip to your sdcard device https://download.chainfire.eu/743/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.52.zip

5) Download TWRP modified 2.8.7.0 to your sdcard http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3558038&d=1448719843 (touch work)

Attack:

1) Boot device to download mode, use Odin and flash rom 5.1.1, let it boot up make sure it's working, then boot back to download mode

2) Use Odin flash twrp (none touch), then boot your device to TWRP, use this to flash the modified TWRP(touch). You need to use the spen to navigate. Once the modifed twrp flashed, boot to it and now you should able to navigate using touch.

3)use modified twrp to flash patched boot img file. In order to do this, you need to toggle the zip/image button on the bottom right handside. Once toggled, twrp should see your img patched boot file. After done toggle zip/image to flash SuperSU.

Bootup and really to play!!! Good luck.

If stuck, just ask :)) and Scott will beam you up!!!

Recovery Problem - RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING

As I was going through the process above I ran into a problem after flashing TWRP with Odin.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] buhohitr:
Are you flashing twrp 2.8.7.0 tar file, not the modified verion? And did you used Odin 3.09 with reboot option unchecked? Once you flashed twrp, you need to power off the device, then boot to twrp. Do not let it power up. If it did then you need to reflash twrp again. Also try to redownload twrp tar file. It maybe corrupted.

TWRP Problem Solved

That solved my problem. The problem I was having with TWRP was not powering down immediately after flashing with Odin and then booting up in TWRP. Once I did that everything worked fine. Thanks for your help.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Ozark_8125:
Did you get a green 'PASS" on Odin when you flashed TWRP? You need to boot the 287 twrp to work correctly. Mine says the same ' seandorid' message in red letters, but works fine. You have to hold that vol + and home button for a while to get it to boot right; you'll have to let go of that power button after it boots and you see the screen 'flicker' for a moment or else it will just continue to reboot again.

---

LOL... Ninja'd

---

BTW - since we're on the topic with TWRP - when first booting with the Josh'd version of 287 there's a message with the 'make changes to write only system'. I'm assuming the right answer is swipe to confirm, correct? Is that preventing 511 from overwriting the recovery partition? AND is that ''Security Notice / Unauthorized Actions' notice in the OS trying to do the same thing? I wasn't able to figure out how to kill that message from popping up

Phew update second time worked and all is back to normal. FYI when you are stuck in the Please select recovery mode it is the same thing as download mode. Your tablet should be able to connect to ODIN the same as if in download mode if you have correct drivers installed.

Which one is the US code on the Samsung website?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] buhohitr:
XAR
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Pact:
Well, if your current Note 2014 setup just works, I recommend against flashing this one update.

Xposed install, even the latest wanam one doesn't work. Of course the main app, and the flashed zip, will initially flash as usual, but when I went to the Install page of the xposed app, the install button is greyed out = not actually flashed

Even with root, which I performed using that new systemless root method, uninstalling system apps using Titanium or the app with the red bin icon sometimes doesn't work, in which they'll return unharmed after a reboot. Had to uninstall them twice. This hasn't ever happened before, even on other 5.1.1 stock ROM.

Memory management issue still exists here, where two and more previously used apps will have to reload from scratch. Made the device pretty annoying to use. This is an issue I solved using the 'App Settings' Xposed module, but that doesn't work here so that's another bummer.

In the meantime I didn't really notice anything significantly changed with this Singaporean ROM, other than the obligatory local website icons on the Internet browser and LINE app preinstalled.

Previously I used the XAR US version of 5.1.1 and that all works perfectly, no issue whatsoever so I'll likely reflash to that in several hours. Flashed the newest one just out of curiosity, after all that trouble I found out that Solid Explorer haven't really properly copied to my SD card all the app backups I've made using Titanium, so I guess I'm just gonna sleep it off after this hard day...:eek:

Edit: And by the way, as per the Samsung Updates webpage seems like two new regions SIO and BGL (Bulgaria) just got the lollipop, based on the changelist number looks like it's the same as the Spanish version. If only Samsung released the actual changelist itself, because some of these lollipop releases are way different. IIRC the Singaporean stock ROM, in the About Settings page, also has something called "Latest Android Security Patch" which doesn't exist on any other ROMs I've tried. I guess that's why we shouldn't push OEMs to rush their updates, huh.
