Galaxy Note 10.1 2014

Hey guys,
Last month i bought a new Galaxy Note 10.1 2014.
This tablet is great, but have no vanilla rom at all. I love OmniROM (been using it on another devices of my) and i'll be happy if you will develop a version for the Note 10.1 2014.
Thanks for your great work!

if it's exynos then forget it otherwise there may be a glimmer of hope.

As always, device support is heavily dependent on a maintainer expressing interest and picking up the device.
Note that after years of Samsung treating the aftermarket firmware development community like crap, quite a few former Samsung device maintainers have moved to greener pastures and have no interest whatsoever in returning to the pain and suffering that is working with a Samsung device.

Do you think that one day we'll get a Vanilla ROM?
TouchWiz working fine right now, but i'm sure that not for long.
And i love Vanilla.

ANDROID Lollipop for GALAXY S5 general discussion (news&leaks&problems&expectations)

ANDROID Lollipop for GALAXY S5 general discussion (news&leaks&problems&expectations)
The Samsung Galaxy S5 may join the LG G3 in getting updated to Android 5.0 Lollipop before the end of this year. Earlier today, an LG rep apparently said as much regarding his company's current flagship smartphone.
Now though it looks like LG's arch-rival from its home country of South Korea doesn't want to be left behind. According to a new rumor, Samsung will start rolling out the Android 5.0 update for the Galaxy S5 sometime in December.
That's when the deployment will commence, though as usual it will take a few weeks for all regional versions of the S5 to get the new bits. Still, given that Google has yet to release a final variant of Lollipop, this would be a very fast update timeline for both the G3 and the S5, and the new software would come much sooner than for past flagships getting Android version bumps.
A test build of Lollipop for the Galaxy S5 got previewed a few weeks back, and since Samsung was clearly already working on the update at that time, the rumored release time frame may just pan out. We'll have to wait and see.

[Discussion] Not happy P8 won't be updated to Nougat? REPORT!

Hey people. I am P9 user BUT I am not happy that your phones won't be updated to Nougat. This means my P9 won't get Android 8... This is ridiculous! Not even 2 years of OS updates?
So Report HERE to these muth*ducker from Huawei so they realize how stupid this is!
Product & Technical Support - Complaints - Maintenance period!
It's a joke with these specs phones to get only one Major Update!
Don't be silent people! You are the one who make these companies rich! And they treat you like this? After all you paid with hard earned money!

I'm not sure if they are going to care about, there are some compability issues with Android 7 and the Hardware of the Huawei P8, guess its too much afford for them.
But we wont even get EMUI 5, thid is kinda sad.
I just hope the CM13 Port will be finished soon.
But its worth a try..

Correct me if I'm wrong. I understand that it's because the chip of P8 (Mali-T628) does not support some features of Android N (like vulkan API). So it's not because they don't want to...

what is more interesting is that my old phones like Samsung Galaxy s4 mini and Galaxy ACE 2, which are pretty old phones, handle nougat via cyanogenmod, but in matter of P8 thare are compatibility issues? how is this possible?

Lots of people have Samsung phones so there is a "market" for keeping these going.
The source code is available.
They tend to use hardware that lots of other devices use.
Huawei use proprietary hardware on a smaller number of devices.

what market do you mean? galaxy ace 2 and s4mini ended with kitkat with message that their hw can not handle lollipop, so ridiculous considering that cynaogenmod 14 runs on both of them better than official stock rom 4-5 years ago, i think this is all bull*hit, if they wanted to bring us nougat, they could, how they even could release flagship knowing that they will not be able to release at least 2 updates? this is not normal

By "market" I meant for developers. I can get the latest CM running on my S2. I don't think Samsung should still be supporting it.
The only reason those phones are still running up to date software is that 3rd parties have developed for them.
With most android phones you can expect one major update and that is normal and has been the case for many years. If you don't like it you should get a nexus or at least a phone with a more common chipset with community support.
Huawei should just release all the code necessary to allow for 3rd party development on their phones, especially when they stop updating them.

They do not want to. Now they have an excuse.

hi

hello, i'm supernova, i joined because in my opinion this is the best forum to find custom recoveries and roms, and i'm interested in them.
phones custom rommed:
samsung galaxy a5 2014 (running LineageOS on android 7.1.1)
motorola moto g7 power (running crDroid on android 13)
im kinda new to tech so if i ask a lot of questions you know why
main phone: samsung galaxy a53 5g
anyways, have a great day if you're reading this!

Hi supernova, feel free to ask any support in the relative device section

Question Custom rom?

Hello. There is no custom rom for samsung s23 (sm-911b / ds)?

No, and sadly, there will unlikely ever be.
It looks like you are new to XDA, actually you should only add the "Development" tag if you are actually posting your own development, questions and discussions like this should have the "Question" tag.

Lol ... Very curious to know what come to the conclusion "and sadly, there will unlikely ever be".
The phone has been released 3 months ago, stop staying misinformation.
There is already one for the S23 ultra.

Yeah it's not certain a custom rom will never be released, but the software currently being released by OEMs (and especially Samsung IMO) is already so jam packed with features and quite well executed as well.
I once used to root every android phone I had and even flashed new roms daily as I was doing beta testing. Ever since my Pixel 5 however, this desire has been gone completely. And it appears this is the same for other users, as the user activity on XDA is only a fraction of what it used to be in the days when I was still here for Samsung Nexus S and Galaxy S4 roms.

It's really a community thing. I agree users tend to not using custom ROM anymore. And yes, it's coming mostly because Android is just becoming as almost perfect and Samsung is really doing a great job with OneUi & update on time.
But I believe users tend also to keep the same smartphone longer than before. So I guess , and if the community is still there, custom ROM could have a big place once Samsung will stop to do major update on the S23 (in four years approximately).
So let's see, this phone is awesome, and could have the perfect hardware to make it alive longer than 4 years.
The future will tell

If some people work on bringing up LineageOS on this phone please let us know. People are already working on the OnePlus 11 and Moto X40, with non-booting builds for now.
We need to join forces to bring AOSP/LineageOS to the sm8550. CAF sources are available, Samsung sources too, bootloaders can be unlocked, so there's no reason we can't achieve this.

yess samsung release their source code, but sometimes they left few broken code that couldn't be track down easily because of no version control system.
