I recently got a (free) new galaxy tab 3 7.0 and my verdict is: TouchWiz is ugly, and so are all the pre-installed apps that came with the tab. I'm used to using the stock android framework from Google (galaxy nexus and nexus 5) and I want to give my tablet the treatment and make it more like that. I know I'm going to have to root my tablet and I'll have to "flash a rom" and I understand it will void my warranty. I just want to know how to do it. Thanks in advance for any help.

So... recently i've been given a GNote N7108 (chinese version), but the phone doesn't has any google service, thus, i couldn't sign in my Google account and therefore no playstore, no contact sync, no anything...
Can anyone tell me how to root it and install Google service or install custom rom as long as i can use it like other international phone?
i'd be grateful if anyone could help me thz in advance.
are you sure it isnt a clone, ive seen alot of good clones of the galaxy line. I only ask because samsung would never leave out google, not even on their lq phones. Does it actually say "galaxy note" on the back cover and "samsung" at the top of the screen?
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 LTE Edition, and I was wondering if I can install stock Android on it without loosing S-pen Driver support. Also I'm not getting the KitKat Update because I'm currently living in Greece, even though I'm using the GUI in English, so that kinda annoys me. Anyway, I hope there's a solution.:good:

Cyanogenmod is about as close as you are going to get to stock Android for it. S Pen works, but you won't have any built-in S-Note or handwriting keyboard type stuff. You will need 3rd party app replacements. As far as the update, it's pretty common for them not to get auto-updates if you are in a different region and they haven't pushed out the OTA there. It's best to update via the computer anyway as it creates less issues generally.
Cyanogenmod?

On cyanogen mods website they state only the original Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, not 2014 edition are supported. Also, can't I use the Samsung S-pen apps if I port them over to CM? And lastly - how can I update via the computer. THx

No. They're usually tied to the TouchWiz framework and it's hard to nearly impossible to get many Samsung apps working properly on non TouchWiz roms.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ Search for P605 and download the one you want for the region the tablet is original from or if you have a rom picked out and they suggest a different base to have installed first, use that one. Instructions will be the same either way. You can follow the guide here:

Or any of the other 1000s of guides for how to update via Odin on here, any other Android phone/tablet forum, YouTube, etc.
Hi everyone,
I have recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 to draw, watch movies, edit notes,...
I'd like to get rid of some bloatware (I don't use Chrome or most of the pre-installed apps) but some looks useful (air command or anything to do with the S Pen).
What would you suggest me to do, to keep some of the useful pre-installed app and get rid of the rest?

Package Disabler Pro
Then it changed, and needed a plug in..
now I read that Package Disabler Pro+ doesn't require a plug in.
The professional version ( More expensive version ) I REMEMBER just turned off time on your display etc.
I used it on my S2, I don't have a S3, I don't have a Samsung anymore. No idea if it works for S3. Careful on using it. No root required. I could turn off about 100 things! and once I turned off the Samsung touch wiz? or something to do with the Launcher.. I had to re-install the OS again

Hi Mr Nice Guy!
I have read about Disabler Pro while searching on the forums. I guess I will give it a try. Thank you for the help
Hi,
I'm sorry if it's not the right forum I posted this.
I bought this marbotic learning tools for my little daughter.
Unfortunately my samsung tablet broke and I bought another one.
Now I'm unable to start the marbotic apps i.e. "10 fingers" from play store, the apps can be installed, but when started there's a check that say I don't have a compatible samsung tablet.
Is there any way to trick that check? On my new tablet Fire HD10 (2019) I have only temp root, so I think it's not possible to change build.prop
anyone has an idea about this app?
