[Q] Why is there limited support for the p601 - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl

Hello xda
I have a P601 and I want to know why there isn't even a single instance of Lollipop for the P601, is it more difficult as compared to the LTE versions due to the different SoCs? Many of us have P601s but from all the Note's I believe it's the most badly managed when it comes to support :crying: , if someone can link me to how to build a fairly working Lollipop Rom than I'd really appreciate it or if one of the LTE developers could spend some time porting it to us poor P601 owners I'd be even happier
I'm hoping some of the developers would read this and consider supporting the P601 :fingers-crossed:

In germany we only get the p605 or p600. With limited availability fewer developers have the p601 and I can totally understand developers not wanting to brick other peoples devices because they can't test on their own device first.

I agree that this is the reason mostly but since P600 and p601 has same hardware except 3g modem i highly doubt that even flashing p600 rom would brick a p601. Therefore after having a properly working p600 rom sources, it shouldn't be that hard to add a 3g modem to it.

Custom ROM's, how long will they be MIA?

Is there any development at all going on for this device?
Yes. I know 3 people including me who have made or are making roms but arent releasing yet for various reasons. Just be patiant. Im personally waiting until official OTA MK1 for UK before making any roms public. Some people mignt be waiting for other things or want to add a lot of polish. Just be patiant.

No worries, I was just curious.
Hackability?

It's great you're working on this tablet. I had a Tab 7 Plus with Exynos processor and there was no development on it whatsoever due to the processor. I am hesitant to get this Note 10.1 with Exynos processor but my question is are they still locked down? Has Samsung given developers what they need to fully unlock this device and mod it? If this tablet is locked down (besides the Knox tripping), then I will wait for the Snapdragon 800 version. Any insight to hackabilty would be appreciated.

It will trip Knox but you can root and we have TWRP recovery on the Exynos version.

Awesome! Is there anything the Snapdragon version will be able to do that the Exynos version can't? Full ROMs possible with this Exynos versus previous Exynos tablets? Are all kernels and all other source codes needed for modding made available now by Samsung? No encrypted unlockable bootloader?

Snapdragon a bit faster GPU and Exynos a bit faster CPU. The kernel source is posted:

The bootloader is unlocked.

[Q] Whats the diffrence between P601 and P905 ?

Hi master's
I want to buy this amazing tablet, but i cant decide to buy which one !
In my country i never cant user LTE, and i know P605 is LTE and P601 is only 3G.
Now whats the difference between P605 and P601 around CPU performance and Battery life ?
Thanks
If your country sell both.
I suggest you ,buy P605 Snapdragon model. :silly:
I have a P605 and while a few 601-Users were complaining here in the forums that it was not as smooth as it should be, I have no problems whatsoever.
What is the price difference?

both of them has some lags... i have P601 and my friend has P605... we placed both devices beside together and..
then..
in official firmware both of them has some lags.. but P605 had better performance...
then we installed custom roms.. for P601 Hydronium V2 (+ some improvment).. for P605 xKat V3.1(+ some improvment)
this was the result:
P601 showed the better performance and faster reaction without any lag..but not so good for very high graphical games..
P605 showed a little slow performance in boot but perfect in games..

Any software update for Note 2 LTE Korean Variant (SHV-E2502) beyond Kitkat?

Hi, I'm from the Philippines and I'm new here.
I just wanna ask if there's any way I could update my Note 2 SHV-E250S to any software higher than Kitkat 4.4.2.
Basically I just want it to have a different look and feel. Kitkat's UI is getting kinda old for me. I've even found some tutorials online where they can give my Note 2 a "Lollipop look" even though it's still Kitkat. Sadly these tutorials mostly end up with corrupt/password-protected files and bad links.
I also learned I can covert it to GT N7105 first and THEN update it to a higher Android OS, but again I couldn't find a reliable, working solution. Can anyone point me to the right direction? Much appreciated.

I recently updated my SHV-E250S Note 2 LTE to Android 6.0 (Marshmallow). I love it! You can find the step by step instructions here:

SM-N7502 Not even getting KITKAT, How can I get it myself?

Hello,
My friend owns a Samsung Note 3 Neo (N-7502) and he wants to update it because it never got any updates from Samsung from the day he got it (Still running 4.3 and other versions at 5.1.1 already....)
I know there's more than a topic of discussions about this, but there's no answers so I thought the people who could help didn't notice this...
It could be CyanogenMod or anything else, just something newer, better.
He could sacrifice the usage of the 2nd sim card for now if that's the only way.
Please if you know a way, help.
Thanks
My girlfriend owns one too. I've searched in a lot of places, but people said that installing something of the single SIM variants on a dual SIM one won't work. If someone knows how to make it work, please tell us.
*Bump*
I've searched a lot for a solution but I couldn't find any.
Would installing a different model's (N7505) rom work?
Would it even boot up?
It is a totally different phone
Duos variant is qualcomm based while other variants are exynos so no ROM other than stock will work for it for now
There is some hopeful trials to build cm12.1 ROM by Firelord but till the moment we are speaking there is nothing
Hope for the best
Best Regards

I had higher hopes.. According to PhoneArena the 750 variant is the one with Qualcomm and the duos (7502) is similar to 7505 processor wise.
Is that wrong?

See that page :
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_note_3_neo_duos-6015.php
Also i got build.prop which confirms this
Also all kernel sources from Samsung
Knowing that the device is qualcomm based gives me hope that it may get CM ROM
Anyway, We need some attention from more developers

I'm not sure developers will bother.. But I hope they will.
I don't understand the reason for this... Qualcomm is the most popular processor manufacturer of CPUs so it'd be easier to create a ROM or edit an existing one to work on this phone... I don't understand why the exynos ones are getting more attention.

According to https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ MSM8228 board is used by Samsung G800H (Galaxy S5 mini) and N7502. Also google shows HTC Desire 816 Dual Sim based on the same board and looks like that's all. But these other devices already have custom roms.
Please build a ROM for sm n7502 dual sim variant

Note 7 advice

Hello all,
I am quite interested in this phone cause I am searching for a Nexus 6 successor and I depend on wireless charging. Sadly there are no high end smartphones which will deliver this feature anymore.
Therefore I have two questions:
1. At this time there are two threee custom ROMs for the exynos variant and no for the snapdragon. Will that change?
2. How likely there will be an AOSP ROM and what version (snapdragon or exynos) will suffer most from bugs then?

Fairly certain the note 7 has wireless charging buddy.

I know, that is the reason I am asking two questions about ROM development and advice about choosing snapdragon or exynos
Ah I'm sorry I misunderstood. I can't speak for the snapdragon but I have the exynos and it's awesome. Excellent battery life and no heat issues. Sure I have read that the exynos is better for rooting but haven't looked into it in depth as I'm happy on stock for a while. I'm sure someone will be able to help soon.
get an exynos, more development
