[Q] Galaxy Note

Hey chaps,
Today i replaced my broken dell streak with a shiny new samsung Note and it is unbelievably awesome.
I have a question, on my galaxy s, i have used Odin but prefer to flash roms and stuff with Mobile Odin which i purchased, Can any Devs or seniors on here please tell me, can i use mobile odin to flash the roms onto my note, or must i only use the software mentioned in various posts, its just im a big fan of mobile odin, its so nice to use.
Any advice for a new note owner would be appreciated guys.
Thanks in advance.

[Q] To rebuild 1yr old Galaxy Ace s5830 or not?

Hi all,
I have a one year old Galaxy S5830 I purchased in China. I purchased it mainly for my travels so I can use different local SIMs whenever I travel to a different country. So far it is brilliant. But it is getting slow whenever I try to install new updates for apps. There's also junk Chinese sw that came with the original phone I can't seem to get rid of. I use this phone mainly because my Verizon S3 is not jail broken (<-right saying?).
I'd like to rebuild my S5830 with the latest Android but not sure if jelly bean would be a working version for it. Is that a good idea? Or should I just leave it as it is? I thought I'd experiment a bit on my S5830 before I try to root the S3.
Hope the community can give me some great suggestions.
Thank you,
Jane

You can always try cm7 roms, there are plenty of them all over the forums, and they are the only ones which are more or less as stable as a gb rom.

There is no "Jail" forced by Google to break from (android is open source ).
You "root" your device (jailbreak = root, jailbroken = rooted), to allow apps to access system files. Nothing more, nothing less.

Will not work on At&t SGH-i537?

Hello;
I have a rooted and unlocked at&t SGH-I537. MOST of the rom released have will not work on at&t SGH-I537. Is that true? Is there a way around it?
Thanks

The AT&T version of the Active currently (still) has a locked bootloader and until that gets cracked/hacked/bypassed in some manner then no, custom ROMs won't really appear at all.
All the ROMs for the Galaxy S4 will not work on the Galaxy S4 Active - they might share a lot in common but they are far from being the same phones.
Just have to be patient and hope a small miracle happens, but considering the already waning interest in the GS4A, it might never happen sadly.

I figured this phone would really take off...but at&t isn't really pushing this phone anymore. All I know is this is the last carrier specific phone I buy.

I thought this was going to be the last phone I buy for a few years, I guess I was wrong.

I have to admit I think the screen is killer on this phone. Way better than the amoled on the s4.

I prefer this screen too

Well this is a bummer, is there any new news on this situation? I kinda figured since it's an att exclusive phone it would have some limitations on the ROM front, but there isn't even one legitimate ROM out there for this awesome device?

There are no ROMs specifically for the I537, however...
Safestrap allows you to install (up to 4, theoretically) most any ROM out there at this point for primarily experimentation since there's only one that appears to be working properly but there's a specific sequence you have to follow to get everything working. You can find all the info you need as well as Safestrap in that thread located here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448942
The only ROM that's working as I just mentioned is this one, the AOSP port of the Google Edition for the I9295 (the International GS4A):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2406177
With Safestrap you can "install" a ROM that goes onto the native internal storage of the device, runs from the native internal storage, and now because of Hashcode's update has the full performance expected (all 4 cores recognized and working).
I currently have the stock MF3 ROM (the AT&T junk) install as expected, and then I installed Safestrap (updated to the newest one released on Sunday morning), added it as a recovery method, created a new slot (of the 4 you get) for the AOSP ROM, grabbed the ROM itself, the MF3 kernel modules which get the actual hardware like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functional (of which there are MF1 modules for the MF1 stock ROM available too), then the camera fix zip created/shared by LeJay to get a working camera. No you don't get all the Samsung additional stuff like HDR "Rich mode" shots, or a lot of customization at all but the camera does work for regular pics and video recording.
It runs very well, posts benchmarks well past the standard GS4 (meaning using stock ROMs for it), and the HTC One as well so it's great.

Graviton and S4 active
Just as an FYI I just got the Graviton ROM working on my S4 Active. Pretty much followed the same steps as Broadband. It just took some guess as to which kernel to choose. I also chose the i9505 model. The wifi fix works for this as well. I'm about to try the camera fix and the menu/back key fix

any one know if Samsung is planning to bring KitKat to S4 Active?

@Srolfe657 Did you ever get the camera working with the Graviton ROM? If so how?

It looks like there might be 2 ROMs out there that might work.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-active#romList
I haven't tested them but I'm looking into it... I purchased my Active used and it was already rooted... currently running 4.2.2 and I want 4.4.2 so bad!!!!

Safestrap 3.65 not working
Has anyone gotten safestrap 3.65 to work I installed it seem to go smoothly then power cycle and no splash screen so I cant get into it . Should I be using CWM ? if so what version there isn't one listed for the s4 active.
Thanks for any help

Root for T807A ATT 10.5 Tab 5 Possibility?

Love this Tab so far but wishing we had a root. I know that Geohot's rooted the 12.2 Pro, but now that he works Google, I doubt this one is going to get rooted by him.
I know Chainfire does a lot of roots for Samsung, but I don't think he has done any ATT products because of our wonderful locked bootloader.
Anybody have some insight on thinking if this will be rooted or not in the future?
Thanks

this!!! I check these forums several times a day, religiously, hoping for news for an att root... fingers crossed bro

A few days ago I rooted my Note 3, freezed lot of bloatware and started to use greenify. Now the phone is a beast. I wish I could do the same with my Tab S. Hope to see some good news about root possibilty...

I'm loving this tablet, but I know I'd love it more rooted.. I see development is taking off for the international versions. I hope some intelligent soul gets his/her hands on the ATT model...

I really wish that this could be rooted. I am finding that this is already quite laggy and I really want to put most of my apps on my SD card.

I'm waiting on the sprint tab s 10.5 root, I heard someone say if you can get the original recovery.img file (or something similar to that...I can't remember everything exactly) and send it to chainfire he can root it for you. I've been trying to figure out how to do it on mine but I suck when it comes to sdk & adb.

Antutu Benchmark for my Galaxy S6

Hi.
AT&T uses GSM network if im not wrong, if I am in the wrong forum please notice me (thats the kind of network we use in Israel)
Anyway, before two weeks I got my galaxy s6, I benchmarked it couple of times on 64bit (yesterday and today)
the result was yesterday 65482 and today it was about 63800
I dont know why its like this, I moved from Apple iPhone 5 to Samsung Galaxy S6 and I am new to android
Is it good or not? because I saw on forum results with 70000+.
Thanks for youre help

I get a between 63,000 and 65,000. I doubt 70,000 is stock

Stock, no root.

Will give you different every time
