Hey everyone it has been a while (legit like 10 years later but who cares anyway)
I'm kindly asking anyone who has links (that aren't dead) for roms that are on android version 4.4 thru 8.1. I still have my xperia S lying around and it currently has chromas 5.1.1 from currently installed but since android 5.1 is buggy and slow for me. I wanted to try out to use android 4.4 again since its been a while since I've used a phone with android KitKat (my galaxy s4 is running android marshmallow).

Hey guys, I was just wondering if there are any developers around willing start working on a Lollipop ROM for our T2 Ultra.
Btw, I'm a software developer (Java, etc, etc) but with no experience in building mobile OSes before but if any dev out there needs help to work on a 5.0 rom for the T2 Ultra and can help me get started I'm on it 100%!
Let me know!
The Lolipop OS is still fresh bro, i don't think there will be any dev working on it right now.. beside that, the update to lolipop version still not released right now...
I just read that many devs already started working on it, including for the Xperia Z.

Perhaps these drivers will make our life easier?

Galaxy tab 3 will never get a update to 5.0 official maybe you will see it in a unofficial way like CM 12 or so.
I am glad I never bought my tab3 7 as it came with my mobile,the limitations it has compared to my S4 are huge.
Hi everyone, I was wondering what the best ROM for the 10.1 (T-520) was? I recently picked up the tablet and I thought I would have no trouble finding a ROM like I have with my phone, however, it seems the 10.1 version doesn't have many options. If anyone has any thoughts, I'd be happy to hear. I miss not being able to install some of my apps because the android version is too old.

Everyone has to figure out which rom is best for himself/herself. I am running CM12.1 because it is at least android 5.1.1 and I like CM. But for me the battery life is quite bad. It was way better on GraveD's rom but that one is stuck on android 4.4.2
Other roms are of course the stock one and the discontinued resurrection rom
There's barely any ROM available for the T-520.
My old HP Touchpad (2011) got Marshmallow 6.0
My old Samsung Galaxy S2 X (2011) got Marshmallow 6.0
My Nexus 7 (2012) also got Marshmallow 6.01
All the above have the bare minimum hardware requirements to run the latest Android.
My T-520 (2014) better hardware and everything compared to the above ones stuck with Kitkat!
I have CM12 before but it's back to the original rom as it does not work properly.
Good luck finding the latest one.

What issues specifically? I'm having an issue where the tablet randomly hangs and then disconnects from wifi and won't reconnect until I toggle wifi.

Wifi AC connection is very slow, my Samsung HDMI dongle doesn't work but when I reverted back to stock rom - everything works fine.
Hello everyone. Please forgive me but I am a super newbie in regards to rooting and terminologies. I have a Galaxy Note 8 N5100, wifi version. It has the original firmware 4.4.2 and I would like to upgrade it to Nougat 7.0. My son is having trouble playing new games on it so I theorized that it could be due to its age. Before I buy a brand new tablet I figured I would try to see if updating the N5100 would help.
I have googled and saw this link and it seems fairly easy.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2626778
Is that the correct thing to go through the process? And to update to Nougat I saw this:
http://www.android-nougat.tech/2017/03/samsung-galaxy-note-8-0-wi-fi-5253.html
Or if there is a better/easier way I would appreciate it. Thanks.
Wish I could help. I'm just getting back into this tablet myself.I'm sure someone will show up with info.

Hi! I was planning to do exactly the same thing -- upgrade my trusty Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 to Android Nougat -- and from scouring the XDA forums re this device, it seems to me that we have two popular options (based on the comments and thanks-ratings).
Here's the link to the more popular one, it's been renamed LineageOS 14.1 by the developer(s) but is based on Nougat 7.x:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...m-unofficial-lineageos-14-1-gt-n51xx-t3533329
And if for some reason you don't like the name of that one (or for any other reason, just to have an alternative), there's another popular one called RR (short for Resurrection Remix OS). It is based on Nougat 7.1.1_r25 and nightlies of LineageOS 14.1:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...t/rom-resurrection-remix-5-8-2-rel-1-t3571116
I'm about to upgrade to LineageOS now (wish me luck). The reason I'm choosing LineageOS is 'coz it seems to be more popular and is ported to more devices.
Hi I own the same device as you and I flashed the RR rom to my tablet it was really easy, you need to root your device first and then install TWRP (Team win recovery project) after that follow the instructions on the rom
do you lose touchwiz and spen?
Hi,
Do any custom roms offer touchwiz or spen?
Thx

If you are looking to use a more current rom with Marshmallow or Nougat, then yes you will lose touchwiz and probably most or all s-pen features. AOSP roms like Lineage and Resurrection Remix are based on stock android, but sometimes they're the only way to keep an old device current. Touchwiz roms are usually adapted from original firmware or ports from similar devices. Since this device stopped receiving updates at Kitkat, the most up-to-date touchwiz roms you'll find for the Galaxy Note 8.0 will be Kitkat.
