Upgrading OS in mobile is same like upgrading windows. Along with new user interface you can also get security updates and more additional features such as improved battery life, etc. Upgrading OS also lets you install new apps that aren't supported by older versions. I also found that games like Doodle Jump, Nin Jump, etc run more smoothly in gengerbread than in froyo.
I am not aware about CDMA version as I have a GSM model. But, I think it depends on OS (I'm not sure about it though).

Just spoke with the Samsung Technical staff with regards to the upgrade to my phone which is also a Samsung Galaxy POP CDMA. You will have to call them and they will give you details of the nearest service center where you will have to take your phone and get the upgrade to Gingerbread. They are currently not allowing it from their website.

MultiSystem is a powerful tool and can perform potentially dangerous and/or destructive operations on your device and data that may affect your life. While it is unlikely to do irreversable damage to your device, it is not impossible, and you should proceed with caution. Loss of data and/or the need to re-flash a full stock (manufacturer-supplied) firmware IMGs (usually requiring a computer) is always a possibility, and is increasingly likely if you do not know what you are doing. It is possible to lose root access when using MultiSystem on locked-bootloader devices running unexpoitable (bu rooted) Android firmware, without careful reading of documentation or following the instructions. Please consult with expert users before performing actions you do not comprehend.

This is answered in the Q&A thread; please read posts #1-6!
Simple One-Click Installation
I've fixed the installation script by setting the required symlinks (this makes it a very simple one-click installation for future versions), but I'll keep it a bit complicated for everyone to go through the Q&A thread (posts #1-6) to learn more before being able to use it.
On a side Note, I'd recommend to backup your data via TitaniumBackup & only wipe system data before rebooting to a completely different ROM.
Good luck!

MultiSystem Video Tutorial

Don't forget to subscribe & like the video to show appreciation of his great effort & time spent in making the video :highfive::good:
i hope you guys have aosp rom compatibility soon! Thanks for this!
This tool doesn't seem to get a lot of replies or maybe support. But here's my experience with my first recent attempt.
I wanted to try to create and boot images from two different custom ROMs. I have a tmobile note 4. I followed the directions and after a few bumps, got it working (verified with the command "MultiSystem status" in terminal emulator). There's no green LED light at boot. It's a red one. I found somewhere instructions that said to boot a different img, you had to use volume-up plus power, etc, at boot time. I can't find those instructions again. Strange that they aren't included in the main threads.
When I say I got it to work, that only means I successfully booted an image off my SD card that I created from the internal "stock" system (really a Custom ROM). Not sure what that alone does for me. I created another image (after restoring another custom ROM I had). I then restored my other ROM from TWRP backup. I then tried booting into that 2nd image, but it seemed to hang on the startup animation (samsung in this case). Maybe it would have booted given enough time? Don't know. I gave it quite a bit of time. In the process, it affected booting into my other image. Somehow, something was changed. When I booted the first img that I could boot successfully before, that image now came up like it was new, in a way (and it took a very long time booting because it had to go through that 'optimizing apps' at startup). When completely booted, all the apps were there, but the the lock screen image changed to default, the system asked me to set up my lock screen, etc. Booting that 2nd img caused something to change, not sure what. I had to TWRP restore to get back. Funny, even after that TWRP restore, the launcher background image changed.
My initial conclusion is that the ROM you've made an image from needs to support MultiSystem in some way. With my current findings, I haven't found a good use for this yet (since I couldn't boot that 2nd image which was created from a 2nd custom ROM).
How to use gear fit on Samsung device with CM ROM？
My device is Samsung galaxy S5, I changed my ROM from the stock one to CM 12.1 ROM recently.
But after that, I found my gear fit can not work on the CM ROM. I googled this problem and found some solutions for gear fit on Non-Samsung devices. But how about Samsung devices with a third-party ROM?
They told me there must not be any "samsung" in the build.prop in the system folder. I checked the build.prop and found three "samsung" in it. I changed the brand and manufacturer from samsung to HTC or whatever. But one sentence "from device/samsung/kltechn/system.prop" bothered me a lot. Can I change the samsung in this sentence? I am afraid it will cause boot problem I don't want to see.
Who knows the solutions for this problem? I will be very appreciated to hear from any of you.
Thanks!
I have an open source app that I built and test with CM12.1 rom:

I intalled it, the software can detect my gear fit, but can't connect to it. What's the problem now?
There is a help button in the app, Please follow the directions under connection problems. It should resolve your issue.

I love the tablet, bought two of the 4GB/64GB for $149 each directly from Samsung site.
Well worth the money, I got them for gaming and watching videos, web surfing, really great tablets.

Impreza thank you for making me rest.....I've been surfing online finding answers if that tablet can be rooted...please let me know if you guys found more info..thank you
Bought this thinking it was an upgrade from my Galaxy tab a 8.0 but since it's one ui core it's missing many features. Trying to trade it in now but it's past the 15 days. There's no smart view to mirror to any tv easily, theres no network file manager in my files (can't access G drive or any others).
Just make sure you know what you're buying. It's not lite because of being smaller than A7, it's a stripped down OS and the features can't be installed afterwards (have tried many apks). I didn't want a big tablet, wanted a mid size tablet with upgraded CPU.

I agree with that. If you are sure you know what you're buying, the experience of the A7 Lite isn't bad. One UI Core is the same stripped down OS in the regular A7 (Snapdragon 662) and in the A7 Lite. CPU works very fluid if you tweak some settings (default One UI animations are awfully slow). Battery lasts A LOT (8,5-9 hours SOT). Smart View was removed and changed in all One UI devices with the upgrade to Android 11/One UI 3.0 (regular and Core), and it was replaced with Google Cast native screen mirroring (ergo Chromecast).
Use Solid Explorer or Amaze if you want to access network file places. It works well on my side.
Despite being a Mediatek tablet, you wont't find anything MTK-related in the tablet. Samsung has its software very well masked. And I think that, in Helio P22T, Mediatek vulnerabilities have been fixed with security monthly patches.

I guess that MTK-su has been fixed on Android 11... But I think that I could boot something with DSU Loader, which is available...

Just wanted to chime in here and say that I successfully rooted the tablet using the same method for the Lite as the regular A7 using THIS GUIDE. Obviously it tripped Knox but I needed it rooted for my use case. One note is that when you download the stock firmware with an application like Samsung Firmware Downloader, make sure you choose the correct Model and Region. These can be found in the settings on the tablet.
Is it possible to enable Google Discover for default launcher?
I bought Galaxy Tab A7 Lite LTE SM-T225 3/32GB and it works quite nice. Small and good device. Would be cool to see on it clean Android or LineageOS (fingers crossed). There is not too many ~8 inch tablets today with the latest Android version.

I've been working on porting TWRP for AOSP Android 11 to this device but have run into some roadblocks.
I currently have TWRP running but touch is not working and I can't seem to get Data R/W with the current tools available. It's possible it's an error in my build or maybe a workflow problem.
If anyone out there with more experience is doing the same or wants to help me sort some things out, please let me know.
I purchased the SM-T225 LTE 4/64GB model, a good device, but there was a problem on the latest T225XXU1AUH5 & UI3 firmware, specifically with a modem... after the end of the call, the mobile network disappears, and after rebooting Baseband Unknown Flashing does not help, only resetting the data helps, but before the next call... The device had Root rights, but is now installed stock firmware and blocked the bootloader, but the problem remains... At the same time, if you install the old modem UDA,UE3,UF2 , it works without problems... Has anyone encountered anything like this?
My only disappointment is that knox is included. I came from tab A 8.0 2019 which has no knox

Bought one earlier today for a second screen for browsing while I'm gaming on the laptop. Got way more than I expected for such a cheap price. Debloated and tweaked, I really can't complain.
