I'm not responsible for any damage to your device of any sort.

By flashing this you take responsibility of anything that happens.

Process at your own risk!

If you want to check firmware - please make backup. Better to store all partitions, at least efs and may be modem.

Instructions

1. Install custom recovery - use my twrp

2. Download the zip(s) - firmware and Google Apps additional package (optional)

3. Backup all partitions (it least efs) and store somewhere - it need to do - because you can loose imei

4. Full wipe all

5. Flash firmware and gapps

Work

almost all

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Valera1978:
Finally, I had time to check whether it's possible to build a 64bit firmware on the exynos7870. Yes, we have 64bit kernel, but all stock firmwares were 32bit, as result I need a lot of missed 64bit proprietary files.

This is fully 64bit firmware, missed files from a5'17 (it's on exynos7880) - gralloc, gps, ril, gles (mali).

Only own audio\camera still 32bit, but in any case it's working great in 64bit firmware.

I wrote own sensors HAL, because it's very specific for each device, it's still buggy, i'm continue work on it.

Right now I need understand - do we need 64bit at all? I don't see any huge improves.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] repey6:
Congrats! I am test it asap!:good::good::good:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Valera1978:
new version.

now I can say - it's stable.

sensors - done (back to stock sensors.universal7870.so with prebuild 32bit service for sensors)

flip - done

it's still sometimes fc on camera - I'll check it later

I can confirm it works on SM-T580 (WiFi only) as well. Everything seems to work fine; buttons, WiFi + BT, camera, audio, video (youtube), sensors, smart cover etc.

OpenGApps 8.1 ARM64 installed with no errors.

The only thing I noticed is during first boot screen it says in the top-left corner in red text: 'Kernel is not seandroid enforcing'. Maybe this is on SM-T585 as well.

On the SM-T580 you get unusable sim-card icon in the notification bar and some other places, but that is to be expected.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] tolerant:
Just installing on T585 now, I've flashed the rom and gapps fine.

Problem I have is first there was no keyboard, and now I can't sign in to Google account

It says checking and then screen goes black.

I've wiped cache and davlik but still won't work

Any help would be appreciated

Also, what's a full wipe in twrp?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] sanchaz12:
Those problems may be related to improper wipe, no worries.

Full wipe means in TWRP you go to 'Wipe' -> 'Advanced Wipe' -> Select all partitions except 'Micro SD card' and 'USB OTG'

In my case (SM-T580) that would be;

- Dalvik / ART cache

- System

- Data

- Internal Storage (Optional, but recommended to wipe)

- Cache

Don't forget to first make a backup via TWRP of the 'EFS' partition (on sd-card or USB-stick via OTG cable), just in case the SIM-card functions stop working due to lost IMEI.

Also, some issues may be related to the device still working on stuff when it shows the welcome screen after flashing. In general you should leave the device for around 5 minutes before doing anything after flashing and first boot to let everything finish properly.

Thanks for that info, that worked brilliant, now fully working.

Rom is running smoothly, only problem I found so far is the camera app, it loads but the soft button only shows a half. It's like the screen is not big enough.

Great! I can confirm that gps gets a fix in gps test app, just as can be seen in the screenshot. Also open camera app can take photos on both cameras and video on back camera. I couldn't record video with front camera, but that doesn't bother me anyway.

Is this rom still OK for T580 ? I read someone flashed it already. Can anyone confirm ? Thanks. :o
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mnd123:
I can't access the SD card in this ROM, maybe there are some leftover files from the previous ROM, that prevent the tablet from accessing it? Anybody has some advice if it's possible to fix that?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] tolerant:
External SD card?

Yes

Did you format it as internal storage on the last romyou had installed, if so it possibly will not work unless it's reformatted on the currently installed rom.

Does it actually show up in file manager?

Is there a newer ROM possible on these tablets? Mine is KitKat (if you tap the version number it gives itself away with a K despite being "8.1'). I've tried using adb tools to unlock bootloader not had much success yet. Not managed to root using the MTK Droid Tools, so no chance of a custom ROM firmware or recovery like CWM I thought. But to be honest it may be possible as the bootloader menu is accepting a possible zip from SD card - question is - which recovery will work. Instructions are vague and haven't found one which I'm brave enough to try yet.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aviators99:
I just bought a sample ZH960 from China, and was planning to buy them at quantity. I was promised it would be running Marshmallow (6.0). I immediately noticed that the home screen was KitKat, and ADB confirms that the API level is 19. So it can't run the app I was planning to ship on it. I have more samples coming from other companies, so hopefully one of them will be for real. In the meantime, is there anything I can do to load Marshmallow on this one?

By the way, in the Settings, it says it is running Android 7.0....

These are the BlitzWolf BW-ANC1 Earphones.

Unboxing

Unlike previous audio products i reviewed in the past, this one comes in a rather boring external packaging, but the amount of accessories well over expectations, with a nice rigid case, a small USB Cable (no Type-C sadly) and the usual replacement earbuds in different sizes.

Something that stand-out for this product is the Nylon-Braided cable for extra durability, but the two cables that go from the little box to each earphone is not braided (for some reason).

Starting from the box, it is made of Metal with Rubberized Buttons (Play/Pause/Answer + Back + Forward). The clip is OK, keeping the little box stable anywhere it is placed. It is not the most compact solution, but i guess they i had to go for this instead of something slimmer in order to include a beefy battery.

On the top of this box, there is a dedicated button to control ANC (working only when the whole thing is turned on, excellent solution) with a dedicated white LED. Near the ANC LED, there is also a standard Blue LED for the BT connection.

The microphone is placed on the right earphone's cable and it is included in a small cone made of Metal. Well engineered in my opinion.

Each earphone features a metal chassis (not as good looking as in the photo to be honest, not the same shown color) and is compact, quite comfortable.

Sound Quality

Thanks to the APT-X support, those are the best sounding earphones i have ever tried, but not perfect. The sound seems to be slightly tuned to increase low frequencies (as usual). Other than that, i can't find any flaw in the sound quality at all.

The volume is quite high, there is no distortion even at maximum volume, and the APT-X support is correctly recognized by my smartphone as shown here.

Also, the Active Noise Cancelling feature works flawlessy, there is no extra noise added to the sound (like background noise or anything like that) neither interferences.

Nothing to complain about call quality, the microphone position is just excellent matching wired earphones.

Conclusions

As promised some months ago, i would be focusing on those ANC products that are becoming more and more common and affordable. This is, with no doubts, the most balanced i have ever tested. Good sound quality, decent battery life and no flaws in the design.

If only there was a built-in equalizer to switch between different presets...

Pros:

- Good sound quality

- ANC - Active Noise Cancellation (properly implemented)

- Metal Parts all over the place

Cons:

- Slightly tuned for low frequencies

- Not all cables are nylon-braided

Hi,

I recently bought Chinese version of MediaPad M5 8.4

And decided to buy Huawei-MediaPad-M5-8-4-inch-Tablet-Case-Auto-Sleep-Wake-Folio-Stand-Cover-Case smart flipcase for it on ebay (Sorry, can't post direct link)

While closing flip cover tablet supposed to immediately turn off. And turn on after opening the case.

I installed CarbonRom from openkirin.net and found this feature does not work at all.

I'm curious if automatic TurnOff/TurnOn feature works with smart cases and any custom ROM at all?

If it is could you please mention your ROM and case? I would be happy to change mine to it!

I just stumbled across this because my M5 does not seem to recognise the "smart / flip cover" either, so i guess at least on RR where i am its not working.

I dont quite get why because in Linage OS its supposed to work, the RR Rom is missing the "FlipFlap" apk thats responsible for it i guess.
