I'm newbie here so please pardon me if this has been asked/discussed before. I got my S7 3 days ago from BB and also got Archos IT, from the archosfan forums it was discussed that they able to load/ran Adobe Flash on gen8 tablets. Have any of S7 users has tried to load this Adobe Flash and if it really works, I dont want to mess up my unit since its barely new.
Thanks so much....
Flash only works on Andoid 2.2 and up. 2.2 should be released Q1 of this year though.
thanks knifer for your advice.
anyway, i did tried to load the flash player apk from the archos forum on my s7 and prevented me from loading it with a message sort of not allowed on this unit.

Hey everyone. this is my first post here.(hope I'm not in the wrong section)
I have a samsung galaxy 3(or i5800). I bought it just a couple of days ago.
Everything works fine. Just one problem, it has android 2.1 inside. It's a lil bit slow for my preferences.
I really want to update it to 2.2 but I am facing a big wall ahead of me.
I read some threads here saying that I should use a software called Odin. I really dont know how to do that. Its not that i am a noob but it just doesnt recognize my phone and some errors in chinese appear
Can someone help me please?!?!?!?!?!?!

First you need to install kies...so that you have the drivers for ur phone installed in the PC...
Second you need to check this out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=873645
its explained very clearly
You could also update the normal way using Samsung kies. It's the official program to update your phone.
Nah I couldn't do it with Kies. It would say I had the latest firmware. Anyways I managed to upgrade it with odin, so thankssssssss
PLEASE HELP!!!
Hello, Guys I just got my GNote International GT-N7000 a couple days ago its already running hooked up with calling and data, Its a beast but I wanna get it running at full potential! I'm fairly well at the rooting and getting things going after I get a push in the right direction. I have been reading but what I have searched in the last two days has me more confused now then when I started.
Here is the Rundown on my Phone and its current firmware.
International Ver.
Gingerbread 2.3.6
Kernel
2.6.35.7 N7000XXLA4-CL886827
[email protected]#2
Build
GINGERBREAD.XXLA4
I have read that this phones firmware cannot be rooted then I read that I have to downgrade. Can someone help me out I would appreciate it a lot. I went to the place where it had the files I would need to downgrade to and there are 3 different XLA4 files I don’t know what one to use? This phone is an entire different experience than all the tablets I’ve rooted, and I have rooted many.
Here is what has me confused, I have to do things in this order because my firmware is newer her is what I have to do? - correct/
1 I have to downgrade to an earlier firmware correct? Which one - would be very helpful.
2 I see three different firmwares that show on the download page that is the same as mine XLA4. On this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 it has the following, which one do I need there's 3.
N7000XXLA4 --------------------2012 January-------N7000OXALA4----------------Germany-----------------------------Download (Non Wipe)
N7000XXLA4------------ 2.3.6---2012 January--------N7000DREKL1------------------Austria (3)-------------------------Download
N7000XXLA4--------------------2012 February--------N7000OJVKL1-----------------Turkey-----------------------------Download
So that’s 3 files, I don’t know which one to use, if anyone can help me out I would be very thankful. Why does XLA4 have so many files? I just need to know which download to use to downgrade my phone. So I can use some Roms and see what I like and CWM.
This is crazy I’ve never had this much trouble rooting something. I’m starting to get frustrated 2 days and don’t even know where to start, information has my mind going in circles. Especially the 3 different ROMs for XLA4 downgrade.
My Current devices I have rooted are the Asus Transformer Prime, HP Touchpad, and Nook Color, but in the past I’ve done rooting with the original GTab from Viewsonic -First tablet ever owned, Nook, Streak 7, ZTE warp, Galaxy Tab 10.1, HP Touchpad, Asus Transformer Prime – Driver and now the note. I have never rooted a phone before besides the ZTE Warp and it was very simple, one click deal, The GNote seems very complex unless I’m missing something here, and it is a different beast. So I really need some help with this bad boy, if you can help thank you very much.
if its new use odin to flash it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1535025 3*Files Wipe N7000XXLC1_N7000OXALC1 Open Europe latest build + cwm kernel ant you will have all you need as base
Hi
Was hoping to get some guidance from anyone who has successfully upgraded the Android version on their Samsung GT-P5110. My daughter needs to install educational software that requires Android 5 or above (due to COVID/Home Schooling). Id love to buy a new tablet but Ive lost my job so hoping to get this old tablet working. Has anyone succesfully upgraded this model? Any help with instructions and links to correct versions of Odin, TWRP and OS Image would be most appreciated. Ive got some tips from this thread but not sure where to get the correct file versions..

Tablet is useless to me now. YouTube no longer works keeps asking to update
Hello,
I am pretty much a noob at this, only successfully done a one custom rom and twrp install before on a google nexus a long time ago. But pretty much after getting really confused as what I can do with it.
I just bought this tablet about a week ago from a Best Buy. Its a 2019 model without the sim-card port, so it is wifi only.
The model number is sm-t510nzkaxac. Its an ok model, but there are a few things I am not happy with about it and I was wondering if anything could be done to fix it.
It doesn't have Android 10. Only 9. And having a little bit of knowledge about software and what not I have to wonder if some of the issue I am facing are related to this. Some of the apps are not usable and others there is no sound or other issues that do not occur on other devices with different android versions. Crashes and app hangs frequently.
Android 10 seems to work best(with another samsung tablet [sm-t307u]), naturally, so I wanted to see if its possible to update to this firmware somehow.
Please explain everything, as I said I am a noob.
Thank you.
I should also mention that I use Linux. Debian 9. If this is an issue...

I'm assuming it was a typo and you are actually talking about an SM-T510 and not T501. If that is the case, Samsung has yet to update the T510 to Android 10. There are custom Android 10 ROMs but not stock. So if any of the apps that came with the tablet aren't working, then there must be a defect. If you have installed additional apps, designed for Android 10, then they might have problems. But anything designed for Android 8 or 9 should work.
Yes thank you, it is the T510, just a typo.
I understand that Samsung has yet to update this device to android 10, which is kind of disappointing. But issues I am facing with some apps are with this model with currently has android 9. As I said before the newer device, and SM-T307u (2020) does have android 10. Also I've heard that Knox Security could pose a problem.
Basically I wanted to test to see if this is the issue with the T510. I've gotten as far as unlocking the boot loader, but beyond here I am confused. Probably because I am a linux user trying to figure out a way to do this without a windows computer for the odin software. What I have found so far, heimdall, doesnt work at all. I am guessing if I cannot get TWRP or any other roms on the tablet, I cannot get this to work?
I hate being a linux user for this reason, lol. Everything is made for windoze!
And yes the apps in question are ones added after market.
Anyways thanks for the response, cheers!

My T720 just got 10 also. But that is to be expected. The more expensive models always get the updates first. It has been known for months that the T510 wouldn't get 10 until Sept. I've been a Linux user for 20 yrs but I keep a cheap Windows box just for situations like this. However, there have been others who have used Heimdall to install custom ROMs on the T510. Do a search in the threads for T510 custom ROMs for Heimdall and see what others have done.:fingers-crossed:

Well I guess I need to find a cheap windoze computer someplace... Lucky I can usually find one at the recycle depot for nothing. Probably a good idea, though, Lol thanks. As for android 10, I might just wait until Sept. for the official update, dunno yet. Depends on what happens I guess.

I'm actually not finding anything with the T510 or heimdall in search, is it similar to other models for the procedures?
Tried some things here and just not getting heimdall to work. Tried to recompress twrp-3.4 and use that with heimdall, but it now complains that its missing the firmware.xml file.

It should be the same as with the T58x tablets.

The only problem with waiting till sept is that that was the schedual prior to covid. Can't be sure they'll hold to it.
Yes, covid... well lets hope that most of the development can be done at home and samsung employee are not actually working at the office I guess.
Latest firmware is android 10 now, got released a few days ago.
hey there,
just a quick recap:
The phone is still on Android 7.1.1, I"ve got a script with ADB from 7to Forum through 4pda.to, got the custom TWRP working, but after getting root through flashing magisk, it got stuck on boot. After I got the official 7.1.1 zip, it is back on official recovery and I gave up... (Link to 4pda, which I got my inital files from - it is a link to google translate, so you could read, what it is all about
The forum here on xda-developers for Nokia 5 is really messed up and there is no real guide or any help which could help me out, I don"t know any valid source of official ROMs, there are no tools - nothing.
I planned to get on Android 9 with ROOT through MAGISK, so I"ve got a unlocked bootloader and wanted just update to Android 9, so I could install MAGISK through TWRP.
but none of that worked, I got only the unlocked Bootloader....
maybe someone could please help, I just don"t know where to start now - I have some knowledge about Android, because every single smartphone of mine got rooted (HTC EVO 3D, SAMSUNG S5, HTC MI8), as I love AdAway and Viper4Android, but this phone for a family member got me started..... This phone is brand new, never used, got it from the grandmother of my girlfriend, wanted to get it to work and give it to someone else in need of a smartphone, but I got stuck...
Thanks it advance
I've managed to update it to pie, with some obscure errors, but it works flawlessly, but I'm on 6.12 now, want to update it to 6.19, but it doesn't work through the recovery, but I'm on it.
Maybe I will write a little tutorial after all, for someone, who has also those problems like me - it is getting harder and harder to get things done on older devices...
