I always have a hard time figuring these things out. I don't ever know if I did it correctly and I have to spend hours looking up videos on the exact process to follow. Anyone willing to guide me through VOIP (like skype, mumble, or teamspeak) to root my Note and install a new ROM?
I have the SM-P600 with Kernel 3.4.39-2040736 [email protected] #1
I'd be willing to gift you some League of Legends skins (NA Server) for your time
Ok I figured it out. Only took about 3 hours.

So, the question remains: Are you willing to guide us, step by step, through the process?

Sure, whoever needs help. I'm going to guess you don't need help because according to your signature you already have the Note 2014 so you probably already rooted it. If you need help reply to this and send me your contact info.

No, I haven't rooted my Note. I'm waiting for the compelling reason. In the past, the motivation was easy. The Note has been snappy and I kinda like this version of TouchWiz so replacing the ROM is not a motivation.

You don't have to install a new ROM, you can keep the stock one if you like it.
The compelling reason is the same for any root: To give your device added functionality. Remove bloatware, add cool features like app data backup and ad blockers, and add any app to the Samsung Multi Window feature (and have more than 2 apps open if you want). And rooting takes about 30 seconds to do.
What's not compelling about that?

Bloatware hasnt slowed me down so I don't need to remove it. I've never used and ad blocker and don't find mult-window useful. I do miss Titanium Backup but Helium works, sorta. I'm still waiting for compelling. I don't really want to trigger Knox if I don't have to.

Well then you obviously don't need my help.
Hello there.
I am about to flash this ROM.. but I stopped for a second when I thought about...
Are there any major differences in the field of privacy ? Apart from the Factory ROM and PA ROM ?
Am I gaining or losing anything here?
Thanks
Eh?
For starters, if you don't want Google apps, you don't have to flash gapps...I don't really know what you're looking for.
What privacy concerns do you have?

Mainly I was wondering if the developer of the ROM collects any kind of information, or can collect.
Thats about it.

hi,,
what about modaco-superboot.zip? doest it unlock the bootloader of Lenovo p2?
Thank you,,
^Better unlock via the option within the phone's settings. Nobody can tell you if the superboot.zip will work or not. Mine is only 5 days from the life of freedom.

I stumbled on this http://www.unlock-bootloaders.tech/2016/12/lenovo-p2-8319.html but it might well be a fake since they say "I rewrite this tutorial from forum.xda-developers.com" and I can't find anything here and the file to download is behind a "complete offer" wall...Now it seems that modaco-superboot.zip file might be "generic" so the one on XDA https://www.google.fr/url?sa=t&rct=...ui6ckfV3A&sig2=0oDFAOzdaw9JZwAMyRmKJA&cad=rja might work ?
Sorry don't have the P2 yet to try !
After giving it some thought it must be a fake !
It's really annoying that Lenovo have this 14 day rule, can't really see the purpose ? They don't have it on the K6 for instance.
My waiting time ended yesterday. However I don't see much reason to root or do custom ROM's really. The camera is bad as it is and stock is pretty Vanilla. Theming would be the main reason for me. But won't go through a reset for that at the moment.
How did the process work ? You clicked on OEM unlocking in the developer settings and just had to wait 14 days or did they send you an activation code by email ?
As for rooting, just for AdAway I'd say it's worth it !

Adguard or DNS66 without root

The waiting period is over I have not done anyting after that so I don't know the process. We'll see maybe I'll unlock it soon. The camera app itself is so bad I won't miss it. It's a pain taking great photos with the stock camera app it's so sensitive to changes in light.
So it's just an arbitrary waiting period, odd!
The camera app on the K6 is not bad, in fact the panorama feature is really good. I'll check the exposure lock options, or lack of.

You can control the net traffic with local VPNs like Netguard. Don't see a reason for unlocking only because of Ad removal.
By the way the 14 days waiting period exists because of security reason. "Bad guys" can not buy the phone, unlock it, install "bad software" and sell it to honest customers within an hour. They have to wait 14 days and need a lot of SIM-cards. My old Huwai Mate 2 had the same 14 day lock.

Thanks DNS66 looks a lot like AdAway but in chrome I get a frame for the blocked ad, with AdAway the area is just "removed", maybe there's a setting I'm not seeing ?
I used my friend phone(Mi A2),opened camera and found that he has many options in manual mode and 2 for my Lite, so why XIAOMI did that and is our phone doesn't support these options?!
A2 camera hardware is waaaay better. So is the app that comes with it. If you want the same app your friend has, you have to install Magisk and download a module called Xiaomi Mi A2 camera. I guess you'll have to download the camera2API enabler, too.
I have it. However, it doesn't show the "lens" option. But everything else, is there.

It's pretty easy and straight forward if you follow the steps carefully. You just have to read it carefully, more than one time, and see if you understand every single step you have to do. If you don't, ask before starting. Pay special attention to the numbers (versions and so). Then, once you have all you need and you understand it all, you can go for it. If not, and you don't have any experience tampering with android phones, stay clar until you can be without a phone for a couple days. In my experience, nothing really bad ever happens. But true is that your phone might be useles for a couple days if you mess up in one important step (unlikely). But there is always a solution. Just gotta ask and do some digging and you'll sort it out.

Hi, Everyone,
Pixel 4 remove fingerprint sensor, but most of app did not update to newest biometrics api yet.
I build this module to proxy old fingerprint api to biometrics api .
You can use FaceID just like fingerprint.
Here is github link,
You should build apk by your self, it much safer.
but if you want buy me a coffee, here is google play link.
Hope you guys like it.
QA
Q. Is this module safely?
A. First, this app didn't have network permission. It can not send anything out.
Fingerprint api and biometrics api just receive authenticate request from app and tell app is authenticate success or not.
App will not sent any your data to those api.
Q. Magisk module
A. Use pure magisk to implement this feature need much work. I will working on it but it won't release soon.
This is actually a great idea until all the apps get the face is support. But how is the app i dont see any reviews on play store to?

It works, I just tried it. That being said...I won't use it because of the security flaw in face unlock. Great app, great idea, Google needs to fix things on their end.

Excuse me? Do you not even understand the reasoning behind this? It's to prevent people from using this site to advertise their paid apps, using XDA to make money off of THEIR userbase.
How would you like it if every rom was paid? If every root method was paid? This community is about giving to each other, not for profit.
I do believe in donating to those who deserve it don't get me wrong, but that's not what this community was founded upon.
If you don't like the rules then you're welcome to leave.

Well then, that's up to the moderators to actually do their job and not to enforce an absolutist mentality. Personally, whether someone advertises their paid app here or somewhere else, the bottom line is to help the end user. So, by saying you need to post a free version actually inhibits quite a dew devs from sharing their work here, for that exact reason. Same goes for posting TG links. This site is supposed to help people as a whole, not dictate what they determine to be viable outlets. Leave that to the users to decide. I cant tell you how many well known devs are sick and tired of xda and their antiquated rules. Which is a shame, cuz they are actually pushing good devs away.
Would get in a heart beat if it was magisk. I don't use exposed nor do I want to.
Please make for magisk and I'm all over this. Would even pay double!
This is great! Works perfectly

If you have any concern, you can review source code and build apk by your self.
Paid apps are not permitted.
However, there is a paid software section but posting there requires that certain criteria are met.
