I just got an Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi 16gb and wondering which ROM should I be using? Especially for stuff such as Hulu Plus and what not. Thanks.
There are plenty of good ones in the Development area.. I am using Galaxy Task 8 and it ROCKS!
I know there's plenty of good ones but I'm a bit lost on which one is right for me. Especially with 3.1 and 3.2 being tossed around... that's why I'm asking which one I should use.
Task650 ver 8 is the best one

It's so easy to flash a new ROM on the 10.1. Try several to see what works for you and the apps you want to run. Just be sure to do your nandroid backups and your apps with TI. If you don't like a certain ROM or it gives you problems you can be back to where you were in minutes.

The latest version I'm seeing on XDA is 7.1 for the GTab 10.1 wifi. Is there really an version 8 out there?
Edit: Nevermind I found it. Somehow I read the "8.0" in the topic title as "8.9" so that's my fault there.
Anyone know of a workaround for getting the official March Madness Live app on the Photon? Market says it is not compatible but surely it would run fine on it.
Apk can be found here. Installs and runs fine.

Awesome. Thanks for this. Not sure why I didn't find this when searching. Must of been doing too many things at once.
I gave you your first thanks. Congrats.

I'll tell you why this is great, someone here had link to app for $19.99 (for one month of use) and it did not do, IMO, 1/3 of what this app does!
Well....tried to stream the games with the app tonight and no dice. I get the video and just a blank screen.
Can't believe that this app works on the Atrix but not the Photon. Anyone know of what might be keeping this app from doing the video?
I would love to get this working if possible.
I have some information that tells me this app will stream on the Photon. A co-worker of mine text me the other night and said it was streaming fine for him. He has a company provided Photon same as me (got them at same time), we both are running rooted stock, but mine does not work. Had him send me the apk he installed but it didn't work for me.
Not sure what I can do to get this to work but at least I know it does work on the Photon.
It seems like the APK I have is 4mb larger than the one on the market.

The below is a method brunes came up with:
brunes_007 said:
Having bought one of these from China, and having very little to noting written on this device so far, I had to figure a bunch of this out myself... so I thought I should share my findings with the community.
If you order one of these from China, you will find that it does not have the Google apps and utilities on it. So to get them on, first you will have to root it.
The first method I tried was via the recovery mode, which I determined you access by holding volume up + power until it reboots into it. However, you will find unfortunately that the recovery mode on this device is locked and it will only flash signed updates, so that method is out.
I tried a bunch more methods and exploits until I finally found one that worked - that was this Root_with_restore method on XDA. Follow the instructions in this thread and you will have rooted your device.
Now that my device was rooted, the next problem was how to install the Google apps. I downloaded the latest ICS apps from goo.im - but remember, you can not flash these. I tried installing ROM manager from the market and using that to flash CWM recovery, but that didn't work. What DID work, and what I ended up doing, was simply unzipping the gapps.zip onto my MIcro SD card, then (as root on the phone), copying the entire contents of the "system" folder from that SD card over the /system directory on the phone. After I did this, and rebooted, I now had all of the Google apps working!
I was able to add my account and install all needed apps from the market to make this phone really shine.
My next goal is to figure out how to get CWM working on this phone. I am doing a bunch of reading on the topic and might have something to report later this week.

Hi Guys,
Can anyone please point me in the right direction on steps to root and install the Google applications (Play Store, Google Contact Sync, etc.) on my Huawei U9510e (Ascend D1 Quad XL)?
I just had a family friend bring me one over from China today and obviously it didn't come with any of the Google applications. I was able to find the Gmail apk online along with the GoogleLoginService and the GoogleServicesFramework apk. Everything installed fine, but I am still unable to sync contacts over from Gmail, and occasionally I will get an error saying that GoogleServicesFramework has crashed.
Any insight pointing me to the right direction is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hey brunes, amazing work, I've also found a easier way to root it and flash on google applications with simple UI for newbies like me, I will update my original post to put that in, and put yours in too if you don't mind?
And for sure, I think as soon as this phone receives a global launch it will be pretty popular too, seeing how it's probably the only quadcore pentaband umts phone available on the market right now

No problem, I'll do the translation and post it up by tonight
But just remember that it's still built on a beta rom release from EMUI so it may be unstable, even though I haven't experienced anything (ie. the phone auto restarting), I can't guarantee for you guys :S
Amazing phone for the price
I just got mine 2 hours ago. My friends are all HTC fanboy so they told me to stay away from Huawei but I was just thinking to try it out and then return it but I think i am gonna keep it and sell my GNex. It is quite an amazing pone for such a little price. although the phone might look bit thick but the thickest part of GNex is actually slightly thicker than the D1. I just wish there are more dev support.
I find the camera app that came with it really annoying since you cant turn the sound off... also if it had 2Gb of ram this would be the perfect phone for me!
Anyways anyone else have any news on update to 4.1.2? Or is there other site/ forum with more support?

Beta is fine. Flashed my previous Samsung Captivate numerous times (various Cyanogenmod releases), until settling at SlimBean. Android = always a work in progress.
Regarding the D1, anyone notice slight choppiness when scrolling through the app drawer and such? I'm using Holo Launcher (which I used on the Captivate).
I find that changing the power saving setting to High Performance seems to have mitigated this somewhat. I suspect it might be a small issue with how the stock governor is handling transitions in CPU speed.

For sure about 2GB ram, and support is coming, supposedly Huawei will fully unlock the bootloader by late next week.
I get all my information from bbs dot anzhi dot com, it's a Chinese forum and that is where I found all of my information from. You'll probably have to wait a while longer for the office update to Jelly Bean from Huawei's EmotionUI, but I will be posting the guide on how to flash into their beta release later tonight.

Haha that's true.
I noticed it when I just open the app drawer, I'm using Holo Launcher HD, and it'll be smooth out after opening it for a second or so. I haven't noticed this problem when I was using the ADW or stock Launcher though, so the probably poor ram management from Holo.

Testing Apex Launcher (my go-to launcher before) now. Seems smoother!
I Tested with NOVA launcher PRIME and I say the transition is pretty fast but not smooth. (tested it on performance mode) But i gotta say the 3D unlock screen works perfectly smooth. Do you guys think it might be the problem with 4.0.4 ICS and not the device? My GNex runs on 4.1.2 + some performance tweak and it looks fine.

I had a feeling that it was because of the HOLO launcher too bad because HOLO launcher gives the most "Stock" feeling

Double post, need to accumulate a couple more posts so I can start posting links, but I have started to draft the instructions
I'm not sure, because the 3D Home was laggy to me compared to the 2D Home, and I didn't try NOVA, so I couldn't comment, but isn't it similar to APEX and ADW? If it is, then it should be pretty snappy :S
Edit: Tutorial is up!
Indeed it is snappy but not as buttery smooth as 4.1 I feel.
Here is a good review androidauthority
Thanks for your tutorial!
Hey I'm just wondering if anyone got a case for this phone and can you please give a short review of it. I m looking for a case that replace the back cover but wraps around to the front. I had a case like that for my atrix 4G back. I just don't want to make it any chunkier. But if you think it feels fine then I might consider putting on a case. Thanks

I'm using this case right now. I love the feeling of the back, it's really similar to the original backing of the phone's battery cover, and it's not too bulky. I'll get a couple of pictures of it tonight so you can get a sense how much wider it is compared to holding the phone without a case
Newbie Hiere
Hi Sir/s,
I recently bought a Huawei U9510e phone from China and i came upon your posts re the "rooting".
I already rooted my phone (thanks a lot to you!), but now my problem is how to install the google play.
I saw one update from Huawei but it is in ZIP file. Here are my questions:
1. How will i install the update to my phone? Do i need to download it from a PC first then install it in the phone or do i need to download in directly to the phone?
2. How to deal with those ZIP files and where to save them to make them work? For example, the attachment "huawei_usb.zip". I downloaded it but i didn't know whats next after that. How can i integrate it in my phone? Or if its a driver, how can i integrate it with my PC?
Kindly help by providing step by step procedures re my question since im still new at these things.
I apologize for the stupid questions but i don't really have any idea about those. Hope you can help me.
Thanks,
Androidneophyte
I'm running CM12 (Lollipop 5.0/AOSP). Is there a Quick Remote that works for this yet? I tried the extracted 4.4 pack from this thread:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/lg-g3/439476-can-someone-package-quick-remote-apk-me.html
But when I run it, it crashes. Known issue? Wait for the OTA before it will work? Any thoughts would be great!

Most likely won't ever work with an AOSP ROM. Those features, like porting the LG camera (heads above any AOSP/CM/other camera), are specific to stock ROM. I imagine an IR blaster would be along those same lines. Would be pleasantly surprised if an AOSP remote app would ever work with our LG G3.
It's not specific to CM12, it's specific to all non-stock ROMs. With the whole Bump! drama, and CM11/CM12 being pulled, I'm betting the ROM never gets updated again, let alone an IR blaster or BT working.

Try one from the market. Wavespark makes a good IR app. On my m7 I had to DL an app to replace the HTC one. The one I downloaded was better than HTC. HTC one was quick and easy, but market one allowed way more customization.

Hey mate! I had looked for some remote apps and wasn't able to find anything but didn't think to search for "IR" remotes. I tried the WaveSpark offerings and sadly they crash on the G3/CM12 combo. I'll keep looking and see if I find one that's compatible and functional.
Stay tuned for results

Wow, look at that, I was wrong. What exactly was updated on CM12? An incremental update wasn't what I meant. As for the G2, I don't know anything about that, I've never had an LG. I was wrong apparently. I did research, and tried a bunch of apps when I was on CM, none of them worked and all the threads I read said it was similar to the Stock vs. AOSP camera issue. I was wrong, sorry for speaking out of turn.
Hopefully you find a working app.

I know madmack had quickremote for cm 11 on the optimus g pro thread so it will happen (probably) we just need paitence and a good dev to step up.
I have the same problem I really hope that a nice developer can fix the problem
compared to say the grand x max+? also which is most stable rom besides stock for lo3? thanks for replys
also to root i have unlock it?
Yes
I've had a lot of good phones. Original Note and LG G2 among the best. I still use my Mate 2 as a daily driver. Totally love it. It will be a sad day when it stops working.
Off the top of my head (which may be really outdated), spec-wise and price-wise, I think the Mate 2 is better than any other of its competitors. Again, I haven't been paying much attention lately, so I might be out of the loop quite badly. But for a nearly 4,000 mAh battery and, thanks to some amazing people on this forum, quite a few custom ROMs, I have absolutely no complaints. I'm not replacing this anytime soon. My previous phone was used for either 3 or 4 years.
Just be glad you weren't here from October 2014 to June 2015.
Lol true. Got my own cm ROM made. And working on compiling omni ROM. Shm has several ROMs for it. And cm has L and MM as well. Way better device with stock ROM replaced.

I've actually been using the stock ROM for the past month or so, maybe longer. Actually not that bad, I like EMUI. However, I am missing some features of custom ROMs, like swiping notifications on the lockscreen getting rid of them instead of opening them, and being able to change the DPI without everything breaking.
Also, Xposed apparently doesn't work on B322? I haven't tried it myself, but that does suck if true. I used several modules back on B128.
Edit: Does anyone know if there's a way to get the Huawei camera app on CyanogenMod? I think I'm gonna switch back, but the stock camera is garbage, and Google Camera has a weird preview issue in portrait (image is squashed, but turns out fine after it's captured).

Just hope something doesn't so wrong. I have one rebooting from Bluetooth being turned on and they won't replace it.
