I have a Samsung galaxy note 10.1 2014 edition and am curious about something. Is there a way to swap out the SoC, with proper tools, in order to improve performance and multitasking abilities? I love my tablet but it's starting to feel outdated and since Samsung hasn't announced a 2015 version, I figure my best bet would be to put in a Snapdragon 820 once it's released. Please add helpful comments and insight. I just need to know if, theoretically, this pursuit is possible before I start out on this venture.
Thank you all in advance.

SoCs are soldered into the motherboard, so it's not possible
Even if it were possible to physically change the SoC, you'd need to modify the kernel to support it, which pretty much only people who've worked at a smartphone manufacturer would know how to do
I understand that, with the right tools, it is possible. I am curious as to the level of difficulty required in doing so.

Sure it is possible, but likely incompatible pinouts, voltage differences, and driver differences make it a non trivial thing to do unless you want a dead tablet. I wouldn't bother.

Now that Apple announced a stylus tablet it's pretty much guaranteed that we will see a new note tablet from Samsung very soon.
At least that's what my magic ball called tech intuition is telling me :angel:

Um yeah must not know to much about mobile hardware. TABLETS are not like desktops where anything and everything is swappable. Android tablets are like low end laptops where nothing is upgradeable.

Umm. Wow, you must be a genius! Thank you for your condescending reply, it was very informative?
Actually, you CAN swap SoC chipsets on tablets. The question was, how complicated is the process. But thanks again for your help champ!

Yeah I saw the vid earler and the camera does look great but I cannot stop feeling gutted about the hardware. No removable battery no microSdCard. These are the two main things that I look for in a phone. Are we heading down the road of iSheep where we are told to like what we are given?
Yeah, Yeah, I know the general line of the Nexus has certain design traits but would it really of been that difficult to add the above 2 things and swallow up all the S3 users? I know for one I would have got one if...if only! lol!
I know exactly what you are saying, I think its stupid not having SD card slot and no removable battery. What do you do if you run out of space or need a spare battery because you are travelling for work and don't have any way of charging your phone. Its riduculous . But the camera is looking good and keyboard
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Fingers crossed we can get the camera and keyboard ported over!
I would really like to know who does the market research for these phones. I left HTC becuase they ditched removable batteries and cards. I also know 6 other people that did the same. Take a look at Samsungs market now comapred to HTC and you only need a couple of brain cells to figure it out! I just hope that Samsung do not follow suit!
Hopefully Samsung won't... I really don't see the benefits the companies are getting from that apart from needing to send the phone off to them for repair money

Agreed, not too sure why they do it, I did read something about them saying it was a Budget thing, if you want a cheap phone, restrict the accesibility of the device (e.g. no removable batter and no SD slot)
I prefer to pay more for an external storage

I want to make sure I have the top Samsung gadget and for you guys to release a new one 2 weeks after I bought mine is complete bs. I'm no longer going with samstung

New technology going to come out every month, samsung will continue rolling out 4 different version of the same thing, either get with the program or well...dont. There's the htc, there's the xperia, and some other i can't think of that i actually care for.

We can now consider the i747/M an outdated device after the 18-month Open Handset Alliance requirements. There is no incentive for Samsung or your carrier to roll-out firmware releases for our phones now that the S4 is the current flagship.
I agree. Unlikely and am pretty sure it will be S5 time by then anyway.
I really think that it's simply a naming thing. It's already been said that they didn't exchange any money for the deal. I really doubt that they'll be any other form of marketing except for kitkat's competition to win a few android products.

Not only is the Open Handset Alliance dead, it was DOA.
That 18-months things was never enforced by any OEM.
Does anyone else check the other carrier forums? All the other carriers are receiving their devices but I'm also reading the sudden issues with complaints about the screen quality, battery complaints, issues with the Samsung rebate not going through errors,WiFi issues,slow internet,spen dead spots, and a speaker phone crackle. And all of us are worried about the release date lol. Which of these sudden glitches and flaws would concern you the most?
