T700 roms - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Any roms available for the 8.4 yet? Or is too soon yet? Also since we are on Exynos are chances for CM 11 pretty slim? I'm not an expert on chipsets but would it be accurate that it's easier to develop for the snapdragons vs Exynos? Thanks

We can hope

[Q] CM Support for Note 3,will it help us?

www.muktware.com/2013/12/cyanogenmod-source-code-samsung-galaxy-note-3-now-available/18304
The sources are also available for various versions of Note 3. With similar hardware, would this make porting CM for our tablet any easier?

I would imagine so, but isn't the note a snapdragon device? I know ours uses both depending on the model, but a lot of the devs hate exynos.

Note 3 international version uses Exynos 5420, the same as P600 and 601.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exynos#List_of_Exynos_SoCs
And from the Muktware article, CM supports Note 3 International version

Developers released a CM11 for Exynos 5420 model.

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!

Sm-T520 (Galaxy Gab Pro 10.1) CM 13?

Hi,
I would be interested if we can expect Cyanogenmod for this device? Just asking, because I am very interested in it and could not find any hint.
Thank you!

+1 here, I think yes because hardware is very similar with the 8.4 inch edition !

It's NOT.
8.4 is the only recent Samsung Tab to have a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800, which makes it way more similar to other Qualcomm-equipped phones, including the Nexus 5. This makes development more or less easier.
Other Tabs, including the T520, use Samsung's Exynos, which is neither friendly to devs nor well documented. Development for any Exynos device usually takes much longer than Qualcomm.
Rest assured that CM13 currently still isn't complete, and even if you upgraded chances are you will find bugs and removed functions you aren't satisfied with.

crpalmer, who we all owe for getting cm12 and12.1 onto our devices, has said he plans to do it when he gets time.
Just be patient, it's far more love than Samsung have shown.

Note 7 version for future Cyanogenmod builds

I will buy a note 7. I have 2 options to go for exynos or Qualcomm version. I would like your opinion about wich one has the best performance for games and wich one has the best possibility to receive a developer future Cyanogenmod 13 build. Thank you

Snapdragon beats exynos in terms of performance. Exynos beats snapdragon in terms of possibilities of cyanogenmod builds.

But cyanogenmod roms have always been developed priority for Qualcomm snapdragon versions in story of Galaxy phones

Yeah, i'm going to have to say that is backwards. Qualcomm is good for custom roms and mods while Exynos is the better performer.
Not Qualcomm's fault actually. Whichever phone US winds up getting will be harder to root because of the customary locked bootloaders US Telco overlords has decreed. I suspect in this case, as with the case of S7, is that Qualcomm's chip is harder to root because of the additional bootloader. Not because of the chipset. But I guess I shd have said if you aren't staying in the US, this doesn't apply. : )

So should I go for exynos variant of note 7 if I want a future Cyanogenmod build?
Enviado de meu SM-N920G usando Tapatalk
Correct me if I'm wrong guys, but either way, we don't get Cyanogen do we?
For Snapdragon the Bootloader is locked so the possibility of a custom Recovery and ROM are rather bleak to none, no? I mean what are the odds that another EngBoot leaks for the Note 7? And even with that, people seem to have had a nightmare after Rooting their phones? Plus no TWRP, yet, is there?
For Exynos the Bootloader is unlocked so that's great, however I hear that Samsung doesn't release the source to bake CM for those phones. I will take this option cause at least we could have stable Root and optimized TW ROMs for the phone like the S7 Edge?
Lastly, correct me if I am wrong again, but according to all benchmarks and video reviews isn't the Exynos battery and performance always better than SD? Except the SD GPU edges out?
You pretty much nailed it on all counts.
If you want Cyanogenmod, the Galaxy S7, S7 Edge, and Note 7 are not the phones for you.

Can't you unlock the bootloader if the phone is payed off?
I payed off my S7 and called and had them unlock my bootloader on my phone. Won't that make it easier to root and install custom ROMs?
I'm asking because SP seems like the more likely candidate for Cyanogenmod. I also like Note 7 out of all the other android phones currently on the market. I'm a bit tempted on the Pixel XL, but the MicroSD and waterproof have it edging over the Pixel XL. I would like to think I could get the Note 7 from T-Mobile and then pay it off and when its payed off be able to install CM.
you will never have a working cm build for the note 7 or for any samsung phones for that matter..the only phone that had google experience was the galaxy s5
But doesn't S6 and before have CM builds? As well as the older notes?
What makes the Note 7 so much harder to eventually develop for?

it is not that..they are able to boot into cm but things that will never work are the camera, gps, 3d graphics and some other things..not enough to keep it as a daily driver

I know that Galaxy S4 had all of those working, and from what I've found is that Galaxy S6 also look like they have all of those working. What is it about samsung that would not allow that?

please show me the cm build thread that have all of these working without bugs? because samsung has not released the necessary tool and without it..those bugs will never be fix and thats why they end up abandoning their project

All of them have some bugs but no where near what you have said. For the Galaxy S4 its been a while but checking their forum on here I see that they even have Android 6 builds. including CM13 which is kinda neat given its age. Most of the other things I have seen by searching. I used the S4 as my daily driver for the longest time. Though you are right that some of the threads I have found for the S6 say not a daily driver. I am a bit curious about why, and if that will ever be overcome. As in, in a year will there be builds for CM for the Note 7.
On that note what is the best phone or company for CM?
Well that's just not true....

Which Part?
Many Samsungs has cm. Just not many anymore.
I must have been reading a different page... Someone said cm Roms were only on one ssmsung device.
Note 5 doesn't exactly have it...because the video recording will probably never work..accessing camera from other apps not working...

Yeah, I guess before last year I thought that the samsung devices were all supported by CM. That the samsung devices were the best ones with the best support for CM.

Yeah, I have since read that the S6, and Note 5, namely the devices that came out last year, don't seem to work well with Cyanogenmod.

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
