Simply install a CM 12.1 ROM. Runs more fluidly than stock ROM anyway.
My Tab Pro 12.2 got Lollipop recently
My guess is that if my 12.2 received the update, then yours will too. Regards.

This.
I've been running LP for months now. And as mentioned, its much smoother than the laggy TouchWiz crap.

Hi there
Recently I installed Cyanogen on my the Galaxy Note phone.
I used Cynogen installer tool which made it so simple.
I would like to do the same to Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4, but from what I understand it is not
possible at this time. Currently it only has unofficial CM11 build
- official build will happen soon.
So my question is.... at what point would the installer normally become available?
After the official CM build? Longer wait than that?
My alternative is to do it all manually but since I' a noob I feel a little uncomfortable.
Thanks

Any Lollipop Roms available for my Tab 3 running 4.4.2?
Not yet rooted, barely looking for Roms to see if rooting on this is worth it.
Thanks in advanced.:good:
@iam.jose So far there is no working Lolipop roms ( not even not working ones). Just root it, its worth it. You can even run a kali linux on it.

I can't even find a 4.4.4 rom.
@kitkit1795 so far there is no 4.4.4 rom, only 4.4.2 or 4.2.2 rom
In just upgrade my note 10.1 2014 (P600) to lollipop 5.1.1. After this update, one of my app is stopped working. It is an old app. If I update the app to the recent version, it is working well, however I don't like the recent version since it is too heavy and too many bloatware features that I don't need it.
I have try to install the app on other devices, note 3 lollipop 5.0, and Xperia z3 lollipop 5.1.1, and it is working in both. I still don't know why it is not working on my note 2014. Could someone test the app on your note 2014?

I checked it out on my sm-p600 running on Temasek's Unofficial cm 12.1 build and after opening the app, GPS locating didn't want to work for aboug 2 minutes., but it finally found my location and then everything worked fine.
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.
