[Q] How can I block OTA updates on Note 10.1 (2014 edition)??? - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl

I'd just like to know the name of the file that I can freeze in Titanium Backup that will prevent OTA updates on my Note 10.1 (2014 edition). I found it on my Note 2 and 3 but can't find it on the 10.1. It must have a different name on this device. Please help!
Thanks.

Really surprised no one's addressed this yet. I've been researching the same thing, and I think I've found the right files.
Software update v3_…..
Software update v6_…..
Not sure if they'll be the exact same files, but just search for "Update" and you should see 2 Software update files. I can't completely confirm this works - I've literally just done this. The notification has disappeared though, so it seems promising.

[Q] How to put OLD SNote app into new "Note 3" Roms

Hi all
I work with Galaxy Note 2 AND Galaxy Note 8.0 (4.2.2) with SNotes sync with Samsung account.
New 4.3 ROms for Note 2 featuring new SNote are wonderful, but new SNote may only import old notes and convert into a new format that is not even readable from Note 8.0 with the old application.
Since in original Sammy 4,3 Firmware there is OLD SNote, there must be a way to have it work on these roms.
What I have already tried
I have tried deleting app data, removing Snote3.apk, copying SNoteT0.apk and SNoteT0Provider.apk into system/app, setting permissions. Rebooted for wipe cache and dalvick. When I had an old MI6 Leak Rom, this trick worked.
In Dr Ketan's Rom after rebooting I receive a persistent SNote Error as soon as the phone starts. So, there must be something wrong with my procedure.
May anyone help me with this issue? How to do or make a ZIP file to restore OLD SNote?
I have had a solution by @shenurulz in DrKetan's thread and post it here
S note 2, flashable zip:

It works. Now I have BOTH new SNote AND old SNote.
At the beginning I have had some errors with Samsung account sync, that's because it featured 2 snote syncronizarion items... But after a while it has gone ok. I think that a good solution may be using different accounts for syncing the 2 apps: samsung for SNote 2 and evernote for SNote 3.

A perfect solution, I put them to synch on different accounts each and no FC whatsoever.

How do we install this for those of us with Stock Recovery?
How do we copy and paste the files using Root Explorer?

I tried copying SNoteT0.apk and SNoteT0Provider.apk into system/app, setting permissions. Rebooted for wipe cache.
But it doesn't work.
On stock 4.3 rooted, stock recovery, so can't CWM
Hello,
My situation is similar to you and need the simple old snote works on NOTE3. Did you have successful experience sharing for me ?
Thanks.

questions about this
I know this thread is a couple years old but I haven't found any better info. I have an older note 10.1 and have had a note 2 for several years. Note 2 was fine but I was convinced to upgrade to a note 4 and traded my note 2 in during the process. Now I am having the issue with s note note being compatible. If I understand this post correctly this is for adding the older s note to a note 3. Will this also work for the note 4?
I switched to Samsung specifically for the built in s note and I am not happy. I would just switch back to the note 2 but as I said I trade it in. I would like to put the older s note on my new note 4. Will this file work? Does it need root? Note 4 is 5.0.1. Thanks for the help ahead of time.

This was probably one of the dumbest things Samsung did. How can you trust them enough to use their software if you don't know it will work from one device to the next. Ok, rant over.
Sorry no one has helped you. And I don't know if it will work either. I am assuming you need this to sync between your two devices? I myself do like the look and function of old Snote compared with new. What you can do is convert all your notes to new Snote. Take your old device still using old Snote, go to Samsung App store. You can download new Snote to your old device (works on my Note 8) and it syncs between devices again. I know it's not the answer you were looking for but I hope that helps.
I ended up buying a new note 10.1 2014. Of course now I am regretting it. I didn't think I would lose functionality moving to a new device. I dropped snote a while ago for lecture notes. Now the issue is when I lasso something on the new note it won't let me just save it to the clip board. I have to choose only from the apps it let's me choose like scrap book, snote, even linkedin! But not the clip board. Wtf? Samsung in unlearning how to make tablets.
Hey, do you guys know if this would work on galaxy note 10.1 2014 (sm-p600)? Would I be able to have both of this apps up 'n' running on stock firmware?

Here's what I did. Finally I've install the package provided in the thread. The results was a disaster. Device kept saying "s note stop working" in an endlessness loop. I do not recommend installing this zip package to the sm-p600 users in 5.1.1. I haven't tested it in 4.x.x nor do i will. So, if anyone finds out a way to restore s note 2 either by replacing the new version (ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!) or having them exists at the same time or by some other way (perhaps by miracle), then let us know. That's all folks!

[Q] Help on installing "Samsung Apps" app on 4G Note 2 with CyanogenMod installed.

[Q] Help on installing "Samsung Apps" app on 4G Note 2 with CyanogenMod installed.
Hi,
I've got a GT-N7105T (Australian Telstra 4G version) of the Note 2.
I've also picked up a second hand Galaxy Gear. The Note 2 is on 4.1.2 and was due to be updated to 4.3 (to get the full functionality of the watch) yesterday but the rollout has been delayed.
I installed CyanogenMod via the installer they supplied which looks great and the phone info shows it's now 4.3.1 (and the model is now GT-N7105 without the T).
I've managed to install Samsung's Gear Manager but it tries to update and is looking for the "Samsung Apps" app.
I've tried to install the apk but it refuses to install.
Does anyone have any advice please on installing the Samsung Apps apk?
Thank you.

Better install TouchWiz ROM, if you need full Samsung compatibility.

Good day Khotaghora, please note the following instructions worked for me after many hours of banging my head off brick walls and flashing different roms including going back to the latest stock from sammobile.
Make sure you remove the current gear manager.
Download and copy the following gear manager http://twosx.net/xdadev/Gear/1.7.031004/com.samsung.android.app.watchmanager_1.7.031004.apk to your device. Note, I have not supplied this, from what I can gather it was ripped off the s5 sources, thanks go to Omniwolf for supplying the apk's on XDA.
Ensure in your phones settings under security you have unknown sources ticked.
Install the apk, usually just click on the downloaded file from your favorite browser.
Make sure you have Bluetooth turned on.
I'm not sure if you need to, but at this point I paired the Gear2 with my phone, it will pair as a handsfree device oh the irony.
When you run the manager it will look completely different from the old image asking you to sync, I could see the device at the top of the screen, clicking on it fired up both the watch and the manager.
Good luck with your new device, here is hoping dev's start porting some apps to the Gear2, the store is looking a bit bare at the moment.
Hi trickyburn. Thanks a lot for explaining this into detail. I can confirm that I have managed to get the Gear 2 Neo working with my S4 following your instructions. I actual posted your URL on another forum and some more people have benefited from your post. I wish Samsung had released the latest version of Gear Manager before the release of Gear 2.
Cheers,
KhotaGhora
Check your versions before applying any old s5 based fix, the version 2 gear manager is based on 4.4.2 API's so wont work. the above mentioned 1.7.031004 does work on 4.3 however
4.4.2 based roms might be able to use the updates from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2677686
However note I have not tested these as i'm on 4.3 stock at the moment

Confirming lack of ability to upgrade past 4.2.2 on Tab 3 Lite (SM-T110/SM-T111)

Hi all,
Just rooted my device for the first time today using TWRP and flashing SuperSU. I was hoping it was going to give me the ability to upgrade my device to a stock android version of Lollipop. As I'm looking around it seems like that is not supported by the community. I have used the search bar and haven't come up with much, except a few old threads when Lollipop was just released.
I found this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2755532 that suggests nobody has modded it past it's final android update 4.2.2. The only difference it seems is it gets rid of some of the uninstallable Samsung and Google apps.
I just wanted to confirm that there is no development going on past 4.2.2 for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite (SM-T110) before I flash a new ROM from the list.
Thanks.
bump
I would also like to know, I bought the tablet today for my son, but never checked about the android version, and now i can't update the kids mode on it,so being to get it to update would be brilliant, if not i'll have to take it back and exchange it for one that has a newer version.
Maybe in the future:
