[Q] "unknown" Galaxy tab 4 - Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a new Galaxy Tab 4 S-7200. I want to use it to try a few custom Roms. I did root it with no problem. The problem is, that the model is stated as 6140S and the CPU is a dual core named A23. The tab is supposed to be made in Korea. However nothing can be found about a 6140s. Is there anyone who can give some advise/know something about a 6140S or what model could be eventual compatible? I am using this device for testing so I am not afraid to take a risk.
Thanks.

A23 is all-winner , isn't it ?
okay, i meant to put more on this, if this is an allwinner a23 tab then take a look at this as an example
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715546
run cat /proc/cpuinfo
for starters to see what you actually have going on there.
do these match up?
Allwinner A23 - Cortex A7 Dualcore CPU 1.5GHz
Mali-400 GPU - [look in /system/lib/modules or /lib/modules for mali.ko or mali400.ko and/or vpu_something]
if so, look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715546

[HELP] Port CM to i9506

Hi.
I need help on this one.
I would like to port the i9505 CM 10.2 version to the new i9506 (S4 LTE+A)
But someone told me that i should use the Nexus 5 build of CM because it have the same processor (Snapdragon 800)
Is that the right thing to do ?

if it is exactly the same then it ok i didnt checked right now....the other things you have to port from i9505
Sent from my GT-I9506 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
You dont port open source roms, you need to make a new device spec and maybe just copy some parts (the cpu hardware part) from nexus 5 into it and then compile it. but I think its better to look at the device spec of the note 3 since thats also a snapdragon800. and better samsung as vendor than LG obviously.
the rom itself doesn't support snapdragon 800 or not, it's mainly bionic that supports cortex a15, a9, which is the arch of the snapdragon 800.
the source for the kernel can be found at samsungs site. and this is where the actuall code is for the cpu and stuff.
but you will not get it working by copying files from the nexus 5 believe me. you need to compile it

Any help with porting to I9506 is much appreciated. So thanks!
port from Note3 CM should be more reasonable coz its a samsung.
I dont make roms, dont blame me if i am wrong

TAB S2 - firmware online - same processor as Note 4

Hi,
as you know, TAB S2 has Exynos 5433 as our device and the firmware is online now:
http://www.sammobile.com/2015/07/24/first-galaxy-tab-s2-8-0-firmware-now-available-online/
Do you think it will be possible to port some of it's functionalities (maybe new TW if it has) to our device?
And do anyone know if TAB S2 is running in 64bit mode? Then maybe we can get 64bit kernel on our device too....
UPDATE: TAB S2 is running 32bit 5.0.2....another example of ****ty samsung development
Thanks Jiri
Really Samsung?
I still don't know why don't they enable 64 bits mode in both devices. Let's hope they do it after the note 5.....
By the way, there is a thread
HTML:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/galaxy-note-4-developer-discussion-developers-only/wip-64bit-build-exynos-5433-t3090926
where they were trying to enable it but, AFAIK it's dead. ...

SM-T533 ROM Compatibility

Hi,
I just bought a new Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 tablet and the model number is SM-T533. From what I've seen, the only difference is that the processor is a 64-bit snapdragon 410, vs the 32-bit snapdragon 400 from the other models. Does anyone know if ROMs for T530NU are compatible?
Thanks in advance .

Yeah, I know. I'm just wondering if the T530 ROMs are compatible or even if they can be installed at all. Maybe I'll have to wait until devs compile a version for this processor.
There is no custom recovery as far as I know as there is no source code for kernel. No way to root either unless you are on very old firmware.

AOSP, in a Galaxy Prime Core?

What are the files I need to turn a old phone into a phone with a modern Android?
We have a Galaxy Prime Core & want to update it, it has LTE so why not update & use.
This phone was released 2014, November, hence 8 years old. It's powered by a Qualcomm MSM8916 Snapdragon CPU.
According to OEM It's upgradable to Android 5.1.1.
If you find a Custom Recovery ( like TWRP ) suitable to the phone, and if you find a Custom ROM that matches the phone's specs, then you can try to upgrade to an Android version other than the pre-installed one.

I thought AOSP could go on any phone?
