I have lurked here for years but recently have decided to get into an android tablet. After two returns of a TF700t....one due to seller dishonesty (selling refurbs as new, but he apologized) and one due to getting a lemon, I gave up on ebay and pre ordered a TF701. Two, actually, as when I first ordered from Newegg they advertised an 11/4 release date then I later saw an 11/17 date. I thought maybe they took enough preorders to fill their first allotment.....possibly....so I asked them and they had no info. So I pre ordered another from excalibur. I thought whichever one would ship first I would keep and I would cancel the other order.
Wrong. Both orders were filled within an hour of each other. Friday.
So here's my question:
Since I have one extra tablet, I would like to see if there is enough support here so we can donate the tablet to a developer. I have PM'd the 10.2 (jellybean) developer for the 700T "dasunsrule32" and he asked if there might be support here to do this. We know it takes enormous amounts of time to to this work so I am looking to see if anyone might care to contribute a portion of the cost.
I paid 453.00 for the tablet. I am willing to contribute 50.00.
We need a developer interested in getting a free tablet, who can write a new bootloader, CWM (or TWRP) and Cyanogen jelly bean or KitKat. I know this is dependent on the
Asus bootloader unlock tool working.
So if we can get a list of ppl willing to contribute, I can send the tablet to dasunsrule32, or if he can't or is not interested, this offer is open to other developers.
I know I am an unknown face, I might propose if we get enough support that we send the developer the money, I am willing to send the tablet without getting reimbursed
for it. But I would ask that its a recognized person with a track record on this forum. When the tablet is received, he/she can reimburse me minus my 50.00 contribution.
Other ideas??
I'm interested, if there is enough support from the community.

Sounds like some kind of Kickstarter project ^^ i would be interested to contribute if we get enough ppl together.
Any news on this?
The only thing stopping me from buying a tf701 is some kind of confirmation that someone will port cyanogenmod
Thanks!

I'll contribute to this, good idea, count me in for 50$. Send me a PayPal address when ready. Cannot promise to install the newly developed quickly, but guess that is not the point here.

I'm no developer or anything like that, but I would be willing to donate a few bucks to the cause.

Good to hear from you. Now we know we have at least one dev on board for CM
I'm looking to buy a TF701 myself and would love to see CM10 or 11 ported to the device. I can only contribute $20 for now, but I could contribute more in the future if someone's actually willing to develop for it.
@pershoot picked up the tf701, so if I can get this one, we'll both be able to bang out this device. At least it's a start

I flashed your CWM recovery and it seems to be working just fine. Finally able to make a nandroid backup. I've been scared to start freezing bloatware until I was sure of a bailout option. So thankyou for that!
One concern: CWM did not recognize my external SD. I didn't see an option to backup to it and going to the mount menu and choosing the Mount USB option had no effect. Card is a Sandisk 64gb mobile ultra formatted FAT32. The TF701 recognizes it just fine, but SolidExplorer for some reason doesn't see it unless i specifically navigate to ...Removable\MicroSD. That was a known issue in previous versions of SolidExplorer that was supposed to have been fixed - I have a support ticket in with them. I haven't tried another card yet.
Oh yeah. I think the link for the CWM recovery at the very least should be posted as its own thread in the development forum. I think a lot of people have been waiting for a working, reliable recovery, and they might not find it buried here.

If anyone wants to help me work on it (it's written in applescript; because I'm lazy) let me know and I'll send you the project, Just when you make improvements and add more, send me updated files.
Beta testers will also be needed soon!!!!!
UPDATE~
I've been working hard on this to get it out ASAP except I'm having a massive problem with trying to run a command and letting the user choose the Unlock_code.bin themselves.
I was thinking of packaging it as just a shell script until I was done with the GUI but if anyone knows applescript (or their way around with xcode, we could make it a bit more powerful) please PM me.
UPDATE 2~
So I made the shell script ready for everyone. try it out and let me know how it works.
1. keep in mind you're doing this at your own risk!
2. this isn't the full program. ALL this will do is root your device! if you want the full program I'd suggest waiting!
I am on a Mac, don't know apple script but I could help out. Tired of using my wifes computer. Let me know what I can do.

any kind of Mac related Rooting, bootloader unlocking or Rom installers im sure would be a welcomed addition. Hopefully people will understand what they are doing to their phone, and that there is always a risk involved.
But otherwise looks clean thus far

zacgoesrawr, i went ahead and moved here to the development section. Thank you for your contribution.
Should I put in PG's (r.i.p please resurrect soon) ICS firmware for those who'd want to install that while they're at it?

I'm also going to throw this idea out there just for kicks. Maybe change the name to:

I will start putting a few ideas together. I work continuously, and am a stay at home toddler wrangler, so I will have to piece things together in that elusive spare time, so it might take me a little bit. It should be quick and simple, but not too quick.
As far as the actual app, are you going to just save as an app from within Apple Script Editor? (I am a little familiar I guess). So maybe an .icns package might be needed as well?

This sounds good to me, but it's obviously zac-attacks brainchild/passion project, so that's probably for him to decide.
In other news, my wife was in a minor car-accident Friday evening (she's fine) but my spare time decreased even more, so I don't know how involved or helpful I can be, or when.
Also, I got your PM Qberty, and will get back to you soon, things have been a little hectic. I'm not blowing you off; just FYI.
On a positive note, I picked up my Vivid today, and its pretty amazing, can't wait to alter it.

Hello all,
Recently I purchased a $15 Prepaid MasterCard not knowing there was a $20 minimum top-up. I am wondering if there is any way to add less than $20 to my Google Wallet. Also, the "Other" option to add money does not work. ANY suggestions are greatly appreciated, thank you so much in advance!
Sincerely,
HeroKhar
The little policy thing they want you to read before you accept and use it declares that the prepaid can only be loaded with a minimum of 20. And the other is over 20 like 25, but the least you can put is 20. Google locked up security with the app so hackers can't steal money from them. Your only option is to buy a new prepaid card, VanillaVisa has 4.95 fee and i think walmart has 3.00 fee. Or you just going to have to swipe until you get more money. Maybe buy some nfc tags online and programming to do cool stuff. Your coolness factor for checking out at stores is going to go down, but most people seen this now so its not going to be as great as when the nexus first had it.

Well, this is the problem. If he didn't get permission from the dev, it's against XDA rules. Plus, the dev told me personally that he was planning on bringing this ROM to the Sprint variant "soon", so I don't want us to piss him off resulting in him changing his mind.
Trust me, I love the ports because of the options they bring, but I don't want us all sitting in the dark 3 months from now because we pissed off all the devs that were planning on bringing their ROM's to us.
I realize that I'm taking a very unpopular position here, but I'm thinking long term here.

I agree, it is unpopular. .Im with mjs, No harm in making sure permission was given. It is how its done. mjs has been around long enuff to know how this works, and trust me he means no disrespect. I was wondering the same thing, theres been more than a few feathers ruffled recently.No harm in making sure
Definately didn't ask permission and i am planning on bringing the rom to all 4 carriers and prefer to have a unified thread instead of small branch off ones
But Carry On, i dont care if you keep this up now, but when i post my official build i would appreciate if you take it down

Fired off a PM late last night while the upload was running it may not have made it if it didn't I apologize.
In the PM I mentioned I had planned on keeping the port updated until official support came in which case I would remove the port.
Sorry about that sbreen, my connection at home is nothing short of horrendous.

I agree, it is unpopular. .Im with mjs, No harm in making sure permission was given. It is how its done. mjs has been around long enuff to know how this works, and trust me he means no disrespect. I was wondering the same thing, theres been more than a few feathers ruffled recently.No harm in making sure

I'm quite aware of how things work around here, as my join date precedes mjs'.
Please reference the two posts above regarding permissions.

Yep, glad you're understanding of poor connections lol.
By the way, there's another release of Hyperdrive I have to port now that was just released today. Darn it Sbreen! lol
Thanks all, definitely a better conclusion than I expected.
Again, not trying to be a jerk, just don't want us all getting in trouble!

I understand, and I agree with what you're saying about permissions which is why I tried PMing sbreen but my connection failed me.
Good news is sbreen is a cool dude! Now download this puppy and make sure the ports working right!

Thank you for being a kool dude as well as an awesome Dev
This is XDA at its best.
Agreed. Thanks all. Glad again that this worked out well.
I'll give 'er a whirl tonight!
I had the same question about asking sbreen for permission when I saw that you posted this. But had the same idea of.only having it up until it brings it over officially to Sprint. Anyways thank you both for bringing this.

Verizon has a promo deal today and I currently have a note 4. Can't root it and missing customizing
What am I losing by switching from note 4? 3 less megapixels..I guess I'm in the impulse mood lol.
Any issues with it currently?
im thinking about a pot of gold.. but i guess that doesnt matter at all. oh, btw, questions go into the q&a/help section, not into general. ill ask a mod to move the thread there
I used to have a note 4, and also really missed customizing my phone. I then sold it and bought my nexus 6 which rocks. I think all those gimmicky features on the note 4 are not really worth it.

If you want customization options, then you want a Nexus. Though xposed is limited currently, the custom ROM development is outstanding. This is one of the easiest devices to root/ROM and as long as you read and follow the guides, it is very hard to brick. Read the sticky roll up thread in the general forum and look for the beginner's guide. A great place to start.

I came from a Note 3. I never used all those touchwiz features. I don't miss a thing from the note 3.
Will the gear s lose any function with this? Gear app won't work correct?

haha well i changed my mind after just purchasing a Gear S yesterday and realizing what im losing going to a Nexus
Well if you like stock android the nexus 6 is a good switch. I came from a nexus 6 to a g flex2 to a note 4 and i like having a skin on top of android. I didn't really like the bone stock android but everyone is different. The camera is great with hdr + on but all the videos seem very fuzzy when compared to the other devices i owned.
Dear friends
i´ve just bought a second hand nexus 6, but it brings the Pure Nexus ROM, root etc.
I don´t understand anything about this, but i need some help to put the nexus the way it was out of the box
please, i need some help
many thanks

Settings - Backup & Reset.
You will see the reset options and maybe a name of the backup account.
You need to know the account name and password.
When the N6 is reset. It will ask to sign in with a Google Account that was*previously*synced on this device.
This is the anti-theft stuff of Google.
but it wont revert to stock ROM, only delete the user data

you have to flash a factory image while using fastboot, while in your bootloader. its that simple. if you dont know how, then read/research before you do it. if you still cant figure it out, you dont deserve a nexus.

sorry, i didnt want to sound harsh, really. but you probably can use a root toolkit as well, if you dont feel like learning anything about your device.

why do you want to start an argument?
anyways, its so EASY to flash them, or even let toolkits do it for you, that you deserve one of these if you cant figure it out :silly:

That was still an insulting and baseless statement. Maybe he just wants a pure Android experience. Saying that if he doesn't understand hacking his phone or want to, then he doesn't deserve a Nexus, is exactly the terrible and snobbish attitude you'd expect from a devout iPhone user.
Don't you find it a bit ironic that you ask HIM why he wants to start an argument, when he's following up on a statement you started that was clearly meant to be derogatory? [emoji19]

It doesn't matter if it was a minute or 100 hours after the fact, two of the comments made were out of line. I was intimidated and afraid I would do something wrong the first time I tried to flash a ROM and I'm really glad I didn't get the responses that taita did or I'd probably never came back.

For me it's only a metaphor.
The point is use fastboot . The utility of Google to manage and flash our Nexus.
