So I got my S4 yesterday, I know it is the GT-I9505 but some thing I want to install ( CWM, etc. ) and for those there are different version for like tmobile and verizon and all of that but I don't have any of those and I never know which to use.
Well... if your device is a 9505, the forum for it would be a better place to find what you seek.

So I just bought a Galaxy Tab 10.1 wifi. This is my first Samsung device as I have been using my Xperia PLAY for over a year now and do have that all modded, rommed out etc. That being said I realize that Sammy's products are a different beast in comparison to Sony Ericcson's for rooting/modding. I would like to know if:
1. Theres a stock ROM (ICS/JB) available. Non-Samsung based other then Cyanogenmod. Basically a pure Google based ROM.
2. A good guide I can read up on how to root this thing and put a custom recovery on it.
Also, I read after I bought it thats its only got 16gb of memory and NO SD slot...... is this true? Not a deal breaker more of a curiosity question. Got mine today for $180 factory refurbished from dailysteals.com
I appreciate any feedback, directions.

Awesome! Thank you. Exactly what I was looking for.
I flashed the Revolution HD 15.0 Rom and with no issues what so ever. The only problem is I dont have any service and my phone no sim card inserted... any ideas?

Because it doesn'y have verizon apn's and its not made for verizon. I think theres a patch floating around that will make it work
That rom specifically says you need a galaxy note 7100, which doesnt support LTE. And the Verizon patch is made for DMC3 base, which the rom doesnt use, so I do t know how far youll get

The patch was not specifically made for the DMC3 base, it was made to convert the other LTE roms to VZW and has been at least 3-4 months if not longer. There are quite a few reports stating the the patch works for a whole slew of different roms, I have it saved somewhere amidst the 300 different favorited posts I have..... I don't know if it will work for Revolution HD, I highly doubt it will seeing as how it is for the n7100 as opposed to one of the LTE version as you have already stated, but since the OP has already flashed it it's worth a try seeing as how it has worked for so many people on so many different roms.

Hello. I am using a Samsung Tab 2 10.1 P5113 and I updated my Google Play Music app to the update released on May 15th (the one with the "All Access" feature and ever since then it keeps crashing. It is completely unusable. I have tried everything I could think of. I was on CM 10.1 nightlies, then i went back completely to stock, I've unrooted, wiped, uninstalled, re installed, and every other idea I could think of. If someone knows any information that could help I would greatly appreciate it. (Note that I have root and am running on stock Touchwiz so I can post a logcat if you need me to, also all of the other Play Music versions worked just fine for me.
P.S. The new update for May 21st did not fix the issue at all.
I, too, have the same problem on all of my devices running the latest version, which range from a Dell Streak on 2.2 through a Note 2, Nexus 4, Nexus 7 and HTC One S. I think it doesn't like that I'm in the UK, as it doesn't seem to be device specific.

Well I think that the all access only being available in the us might cause issues for you. I could be wrong though.

That would be silly but make sense.
Luckily, I can roll back updates on some devices. It's not the end of the world because I can still access my music but if I only had one of these and if I wasn't able to, I'd be more than a little upset about it!
For some reason it works just fine on my old Samsung transform ultra.

Ok. So I think they came out with a new update but kept the date in the description the same. I've been using the app all day now with no crashes.

Yes they did. I've checked that it works on my Nexus 4 (as I can uninstall updates) and although it took a long time to let me in the first time, it's working. So that's good. Thank you.
Still not working for me. Does anyone have the pre 15th APK so I can roll back?

We probably don't have to worry much about bringing it to the Note 3 as I'm sure KK for our phone isn't too far behind. About damn time we see something!

Wouldn't it be a much safer approach to bring this S4 leaked version over to our Note 3? I mean you could be right KK for the Note 3 might be just around the corner, but what if that version of KK has a similar affect as the version that AT&T received, where the update wiped out Root and there was no way to restore it. Maybe that is something that is just going to happen with the Verizon KK update, Root will be lost, and the bounties will raise again. If you ask me, what if we take a look at the S4 KK leaked ROM and see if it is something that can be ported over to the Note 3, maybe it can, maybe there's a way to keep Root and enjoy KitKat.

I guess I don't know about obtaining root on a stock AT&T KK Note 3, but it seems there are plenty of custom, rooted ROMs based off the newest release. Porting a new version of android without the kernel (for those of us using SS) just seems like it'd be a lot of work and a PITA. Admittedly, I don't know much about this stuff so it may be more straight forward than I know.

Would it be possible use a stock KitKat ROM from another carrier such as Sprint, extract the radio, then insert the Verizon radio from S4 leak? I don't know much about ROM building or porting a ROM, but I know you need the correct radios to get it to work properly, maybe if cross-build with what is already available something should work right? and I hope on the retail version side of things...
When you start tweaking like that, it's becomes no longer signed, and then it won't flash. Plus I think the kernel is different, which is an automatic stop, as we can't flash different ones.

I'd think that the biggest issue with porting an S4 ROM to the Note 3 would be S-Pen support. Is that not a concern?
Personally I would try to use a Canadian 4.4 Rom since we have had the update for over a month now up here

SafeStrap ignores the boot.img even if present, so it can't get flashed on a retail N3.
Anything to note on the S4 leak such as root methods and what not?
The note 3 tar was posted on their site and in another thread. No root exploit is publicly available yet.

I hope this question is not a stupid one...
I want to say that I tried searching and all guides come either outdated with broken links or just designed for a different model.
I have a Galaxy Note SGH-i717R which is a canadian version. I cannot find a current working rooting method that will guide me through installing a CWM or TWRP recovery plus let me flash CM or any other KitKat based ROM.
I have downloaded:
CWM-TOUCH-i717-6043.zip but I know I can't install it until I root. But all rooting guides are outdated and do not work.
I have a good idea on how to root and install custom roms, I've done it on various phones including on my Nexus 5 and 7.
Can anyone give me a link or a quick breakdown of what I need?
I can't stress enough that this is a SGH-i717R not SGH-i717, i have a Canadian Version.
Thanks in advance!

With all the different variants of this device, no two are as similar. There have been many to flash the US version to Canadian model. I see no harm, but it is your device. Have you read the Super Everything thread?

Kingoapp.com. The i717 is not on the device list but it works....I have used it many times when I have screwed up my phone testing and had to go back to stock. What os are you on now. ICS or Gingerbread?

I think i've read that thread too and i think most of it did not apply to the R version of thsi phone. Also someone was mentioning that the phone since it is a canadian variant..will reload the stock ROM back on under reboot. Is this true?

Its running 4.1.2
And its not i717 but i717R.... something about the Canadian R variant make its almost impossible to flash with AT&T versions of the ROMs. OR I am not reading the threads correctly.

It's been so long since ICS, I'm not sure if you have to flash JB before going to KK or not. Look for any thread with JamieD81 on it. He's from Canada so his should work.

Its not really a big deal weather i get CM on this phone or not, but since I have it as a spare phone next to my Nexus 5, I really want something more modern running on it.
Again, thanks for help.
