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.

I have an DELL XCD28 GSM with Android 2.1, i really wanted to know how to Upgrade to Android 2.2.
Dell does not going to release an Upgrade to 2.2 in future.
So what are the ways i can install Android 2.2 on my Device?
Thanks
I have also purchased dell xcd28. As it was the only android phone in my budget. Please let me know how to install froyo or gingerbread on my device. Dell is not providing any official updates for the device.
Please reply to this post as early as possible.
Hello,
I am aware that DELL is not going to provide any upgrade even for XCD35 they are not going to release anything, thats sad :-(
But XCD25 is actually ZTE Racer 2G model with extra facility of 3G added for DELL model. I searched for some ROM upgrade but only one ROM i found that too was for the chinese model of ZTE without EDGE support only 3G was working.
I finally decided instead of looking around and wasting time. i am gonna create my own ROM for my device. I am a developer and i can create my own custom ROM. So i just started the work and hopefully in a few weeks i may finish the ROM.
I will let you know about the ROM soon
Meanwhile get your device rooted and add some cool features to the 2.1 version. You can find many apps and utilities which you can add using rooted phone.
BUT DO THIS ONLY IF YOU ARE TECHNICALLY GOOD AT OWN TROUBLESHOOTING!
ALSO BACKUP YOUR ORIGINAL ROM(with rooted device) BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY CHANGES!
So good luck!
I would like to know how to root my phone and I am also looking for a free tethering tool through which I can connect to internet on my pc. I am a Windows Client Administrator and just know a bit about android development.
Rooting for android device is easy but its a bit technical
follow these steps below:-
1.download z4root from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953
2.After rooting your device DONT FORGET TO BACKUP YOUR ROM BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY CHANGES!
3. For backup using NANDROID!
I have fully tested the above steps and its working 100%
Good Luck!

Zofus u r d man... keep up d good work... share the created rom for xcd28 with us.... Thanx....
Just Opened my Eye
Hello Everyone,
I just saw a video about Android Security from Kasperksy Lab in YouTube
But, After seeing this video about Android Security from Kaspersky Lab I realised how dangerous rooting and loading custom rom maybe, I personally had this question with me as i was developing the ROM as it completely pulls the security out of your device.
Android Malware attacks are in the news now. So its better being safe then sorry
So I have decided not to release the Custom ROM to public and also i am stopping the Development of the ROM.
Also i am not saying that you should not root your device and do other cool stuff with it. Its solely up to you. Finally its your Android Device!
Good Luck!

i already have samsung galaxy core but i have read the thread that say my phone can upgrade to android 4.4 kitkat. how to upgrade the android version for my phone...need help.....
I don’t know the device, and I don't think you read that correctly. But if you did, you'd just have to wait. Check the article again, maybe it has a date.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
No official update
Android 4.4 KitKat can be run on lower end devices such as those with 512MB of RAM, overall galaxy core will also come under this lower end device category that's why you might have read this.. However, Samsung will probably NOT release any further updates, though we always have XDA, check for cynogenmod 11 for your device. It'll probably be at a development stage but you can have the initial experience.. :good::good:
Hello every1, the thing is that according to what ive read today Android doesn't fully supports the Dual Core processors right now. So i would like to know if there will be new version of Android one day with full dual core support would i be able to just upgrade the android on my phone or not?

Well, Android Updates depends on the Brand of your phone. He may not be updates so regularly if it's a lower range phone.
To check if you have an update , just go to Settings->About Phone->Android Update (or something like that)
If you tell me the Brand of your phone I may find if there are available updates
Have a good day

Sorry man but I can't do anything for you. I don't even find your phone on internet. So I don't think he'll receive updates .

Samsung's Galaxy Tab A7 Lite has leaked once again before launch
The upcoming Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite has leaked once again via unofficial press renders that have been shared by Evan Blass.

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.

NOPE, DON'T EXPECT ANDROID 8 OR HIGHER ROMS FOR THIS TABLET.
No one wants to develop software for old ****ing things that aren't iconic or popular enough nowadays, everyone's either focusing on modern phones from Google, Xiaomi, etc.... or phones that were literally hot **** back then (like the Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, etc...)
Highest you can go is Lollipop (and maybe, Marshmallow?)

If your model is a 7D-50xx/S7-30xx variant, you can get custom ROMs for them.
For 7D-50xx (Mediapad X1) models, there's only a beta version of Lollipop from Huawei (and since it's a beta from Huawei, that means there must have been an official update already - go check your updates in the settings if your model is the 7D-50xx model.)
For S7-30xx (Mediapad T1, 7 inches) models, you can get CyanogenMod 10.1 running on it, but that is on 4.2.1. But since you don't give me the specifics of your model name, I don't think I'll be able to help you much.
hey may i ask how u managed to unlock the bootloader, i went through hell i have the 701W version but i can't find any proper solution.
