thanks ,, come to learn sth
According to Canonical, the code is available to end users, but lots of "expertise" is required to pull this off.. I'd love to see this done by end users ASAP!

[Q] Can anyone who rooted Samsung gt 10.1 (3g) (Android 3.2) share your experience?

Hi guys, I am new to this forum. Also, I have been using android for a few weeks now and you may classify me as a noob even though I am very experienced with other platforms such as: Symbian, Windows phone, Mac OS and Windows. I got my first android device which is a samsung galaxy tab 10.1 with 3g which I upgraded to android 3.2.Well, it is a pain in the ass to remove some apps and not to be able to change the clock rate. So I have decided to root it. It is very hard to find one tutorial when it comes to my OS version, and there is no one who shared some thoughts after they have rooted their devices. Will there be any issues? Will I receive further updates? Is the system stable after the root?
So guys and girls, share some experience if you have the same device and the same OS installed.
Welcome aboard!
For rooting start here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15693193. It provides a very easy way to root your tablet. There you will find also some basics about cwm recovery, which you also should flash either by rom manager apk (from play store) or through odin (a windows program used to flash roms to the tab). All info is in the previous thread. You can't overclock just by rooting. Flash a different kernel. Look at pershoot's thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15022459. Before you proceed search Google as to what rooting basically is (well, root access is like administrator rights in windows). Bear in mind that there is a 99.99% chance that your warranty will be void though! Post here any question you might have after reading! Have fun

Rooting/Flashing Cyanogenmod on a Fake Samsung Galaxy S3

Hi everyone
First time post here so, hello...
I have recently bought what i thought was a Samsung Galaxy S3 but on further inspection it appears to be a fake.
Some things that are wrong include:
Battery says Sunsung
Baseband version: MAUI.11AMD.W11.50.SP.V20 2012/07/13 18:23
Kernel version: 3.0.13 [email protected]#1 Sat Aug 4 02:00:11 CST 2012
Build number: IMM76D.I9300ZSALE9
Custom build version: 1344016820
Any ways i was wondering if any one knows if it possible to flash the phone to a relatively new version of cyanogenmod?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
seems you got a mediatek (mtk) clone.
Not only will they not run the official operating system including aftermarket ones like Cm (completely different hardware) but they are vastly less powerful and have less interesting hardware than the real S3.
Additionally they don't tend to live very long and have lots of issues.
Try to return it if possible and go to local police.
If you imported it from eg China you're out of luck, buh then again how do u expect an original from there?

I also have mediatek version of an s3..GT-i9300.. If not root and I hope not offensive, many of us cannot afford such an expensive devise. However, Android is and will always will be an open source project... meaning the platform is simply a measure of fire power.. What i realy want to say is that my devise may not be original samsung.. but my OS is Andoid for sure.. and I think developers in this forum are assisting with andoid development and not samsung development.
I am looking for a compatible rom for MEDIATEK version of S3 GT-i9300. So far i came across needrom.com and also on xda http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358560 where some discussion are ongoing.. (i do note that the scatter file selection is not mentions (where to get the scatter file). I downloaded a zip archive (ROM) and after extracting, it didnt have a scatter.txt file..
I would like to ask if cynogenmod (any) builds are compatible/can be installed? I need advise on available roms...or how to find if one will be compatible..
Thanks in advance for the valuable time...and the understanding..

Cyanogenmod only supports the original S3 devices so you'll have no luck on finding one. And roms for clones are scarce so i'm afraid you'll have to find a dedicated forum that supports your device.
There is a cm9 that booted by superdragonpt but its just way too buggy as he stated, he fixes one error two new ones come out, complete scource code can hardly be found for it. so we are stuck with just theming and modding and if you like to get your hands dirty, heres a thread with guides compatible for mtk phones http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2369586

As said either find a fake forum or build a rom yourself .
Knowledge of fake/ clone is not on this forum .
Simply its not a Samsung product and questions should be posted in a Mediatek forum .

You are wrong. This forum is for android development of the gt-i9300 international galaxy s3. Nothing else. None of us have your device so we cannot help with development, methods, processes or roms.
There are general forums to teach how to develop android for a device generally but without drivers, source code etc, you won't get far. Either way though, this is not the place for that.
Regardless of what you can afford, you must seek out your own forum for your own device. Your device has nothing in common with this device or this forum. It doesn't even share any hardware.

I at no time mentioned that the GTi9300 MTK i have is anything common with "your"device.. i am saying is, both are android platform (samsung or AOSP) and development forums are to discuss on issues faced during tweaks.. sorry to ask here... if thats the reason u were offended.
the name of the post here is "ROOTING/FLASHING CYNOGENMOD ON "FAKE" S3... i think i am in the correct place?

You don't understand either. Android is open source, but is also phone specific ! In each built you have a kernel that runs specific drivers for in built hardware present in your phone!
And for that cm devs need code source. And I think above all that's it's a 'ethical' reason. If cm supports border line illegal clones, it will officialize them.
Those phones are totally different it's exactly the same than asking in a HTC forum why they can't provide you a Rom for your Sony.

No you are in the wrong place this is SGS3 I9300 or I9305 forum .
It is not a fake / clone forum nothing on here is for you and it is a totally different phone .
You need to find a fake SGS3 forum .

So is motorola razr. Truth is posting here is no different to posting in the razr forum. You chose this forum because it looks the same but the similarity ends there.
This forum is for the international s3 only. Not razr. Not clone.

[Q] Some doubts regarding getting started with Android Development

Hello,
I am new here, please forgive me, if this thread is in wrong section.
Moderators may move it to appropriate section.
I have a few doubts before I get into Android Development. (both in making apps, developing custom roms) I just want to know the Android inside out.
Here are my doubts :
# Does custom ROMs help in getting more RAM, or what's the best advantages (other than they give root level access)
# Are there any free tutorials (preferably video tutorials) for developing custom roms and learn android development?
# I have Galaxy S 5302, if I root it or say upgrade it to Android 4.0 or to Jelly Bean, would it affect the performance? If yes, then how?
# Why do sometimes, device bricks on rooting?
EDIT : I have experience with C/C++ programming, and currently learning JAVA.
I just installed the ADT but it's not showing any option to start Android Application Development.

Help required for making Android Custom ROM

Hi,
I am a noob to Android development because I am just venturing out of Bada development, even though I will continue to develop Bada
I have decided that the ROM will be made for Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro
Since, me and my team of developers are new to this, we need the help of some experienced souls
I am reading and following the android custom rom guides, here at XDA
Can anyone help me in this development process?

I think The Best Way to create a Custom Rom Fast N Easy is to Create it by Android Kitchen.
Look in the android Cook section and XDA university. Avoid kitchens. They are not for people that want to learn to develop android roms, they are basicly for noobs.
