Hi, as mentioned here:
"Our maintainers are working on all of the new flagships, including the new HTC One, S5, Note 3 Exynos and the Oppo Find 7a. More immediately, the Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 Wifi (mondrianwifi) and Xperia SP (huashan) are near ready for nightly Support."
The Note 3 runs the same Exynos 5420 as the Tab pro 520 WiFi?
Does this mean we have a chance for CM support with our WiFi devices ?
Thx, Martin

Hey, I did a lot of searching but couldn't find anything about this (surprisingly) so..:
Is somebody already working on a Cyanogenmod version for the Tab S / will there ever be one?
Yes it's being worked on. If the Dev cracks it you'll see a thread in Development.

I would find it unlikely due to the fact that is hasn't happened on the Note 2014, Note Pro, or Galaxy Tab Pro, or the Tab S, which all feature the same Exynos 5 based SoC, and all have far more custom rom and development work.

The sheer awesomeness of the prospect makes it metaphysically more likely. I call this Awesome Theory and I just made it up.
So it seemed like us tab pro owners with the exynos5 were forever destined to be stuck in touchwiz hell until i started browsing the galaxy tab s forum, where I saw there is a group well on their way to porting CM ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/cwm-recovery-6-0-5-0-galaxy-tab-s-8-4-t2824099 )
Since the tab S runs on the exynos 5420 like the tab PRO 10.1, I was wondering; if they are successful, if this could be then be ported to give us some CM love?
several threads on here discussing this subject. here is one of them.

Any thing is possible. I detailed my porting efforts in the thread plus I have my code up on github.. Which I need to update. Just needs someone to do it.
Developers released a CM11 version for Galaxy Tab S SM-T700 Wi-Fi Exynos 5420 model.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/orig-development/unofficial-cyanogenmod-11-android-4-4-4-t2835170
Since this is the same SoC as SM-T520 "Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1" Wi-Fi I wonder whether there will be a port for us as well?
Its pretty sad that we have only seen QUALCOMM ports so far.
Any developers around?

+1 , any developer for this t520 port?
I'm trying to port it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...pment/cm-11-port-galaxy-tab-pro-10-1-t2850042
Got the BlackASOP working.
CM 11 boots and works and all but keeps showing the error com.android.phone has stopped. Trying to fix it. Thank @eousphoros for making it!
Hi guys
Iam Note 8.0 user
i don't know any things about developement or roms
I got a good idea
don't know if it's possible
We know samsung released mid end tablet called tab a8 with lollipop built in
I searched found the hardware is the same
s pen , 5 mp cam quadcore , 2gb ram
The wifi n5110 face wifi tab a8
the lte n5120 face lte tab a8
the 3g n5100 ? Can handle lte software ?
Can someone make it possible to install tab a8 official rom on note 8.0
Simple No!

Why? What would be the advantage of that?

Lot
Starting from lower system used storage
Multi users
Ultra power saving mode
Lollipop kitkat 5 (there are lot of apps support only lollipop, like fore example screen recording no root)
Ok.
FYI, I don't think my Tab A supports multiple users...

Good idea though. Have to go through and see how similar the specs are.
Seems like the main difference is the processor:
Galaxy Tab A8 has a
1.2 ghz quad core
Note 8 has
Chipset Exynos 4412 Quad
CPU Quad-core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A9
GPU Mali-400MP4
So why did the A8 get marshmallow when it's lower specced... why TF did they say the Note 8 was too weak to handle it?
Seems like the closest match to my
Samsung Galaxy Note 8 GT N5110
is the
Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 SM-T350 (wifi only model - no stylus). List of firmware names..

Hi everybody,
I am considering to buy this phone, (rmn8 pro), however it ships with the mediatek G90T processor. in the past my understanding was that ROM development for mediatek based phones is troublesome due to missing sources. Can anyone confirm this issue for me?
Would it therefore be better to buy the non pro version of rthe rmn8 shipping with an snapdragon 655 processor?
Yeah I'd like to know it too.
OK - so it seems that if we want custom ROMs we should go with the non pro version.
Based on xiaomis history and the development activity for the redmi note 3 snapdragon and redmi note 3 mediathek there is a considerable difference.
Furthermore it appears that it took 3 years for xiaomi to release the kernel source for the rmn 3 and the rmn 2 mediatek version. In general it appears that the source release is up to the OEMS - e.g. Xiaomi. Mediathek is known to only distribute the source to customers or people who are willong to pay.
This is kind of disappointing as the pro version of the rmn8 is quite a bit better.
Any other opinions ?
I want the pro version but mtk processor no way ill be buying as I want gcam and custom roms.
I would suggest you to wait for the Global launch because Xiaomi might launch RN8Pro with Snapdragon soc..

That could be the case, but I guess it won't happen as they try to create some hype around the new helio chips.
If Xiaomi released source code for kernel, there is chance for start develop custom ROMs and kernels, but SoC from Qualcomm Snapdragon still more universal. I think MediaTek will get custom ROMs/kernels but Gcam will be more problematic. In my opinion XDA members should try create better support for MediaTek SoC. Why ? MediaTek Helio G90T it's seriously impressive SoC with some more performance than SD730G.
The phone is very, very good
The phone is very, very good，Feel good, good color, great performance.

The problem is that MTK doesn't fully release the sources of their SoC's that's why it has low development here in XDA.

Exactly my thoughts.... Redmi Note 7 pro has lot of developments going on and it is better than Redmi Note 8.
Redmi note 8 has Samsung sensor which does not have much gcam support.
Redmi note 7 pro has Sony sensor which works flawlessly with gcam.

Well about development, sure note 7 Pro may have better Dev support coz it's an older device but as far as gcam support is concerned, you may be wrong, I'm using note 8 and it's working flawless. At least it's giving much better camera results when compared to poco

Not sure whether the guys who ordered online received or not. I got the device from an local Mi store on the sale day itself.
