Hey all. I searched for an answer to this question, but haven't really found a solid answer. And i'd like to know before doing something that might mess up my new delicious Galaxy Note.
So I just got a T-Mobile Note yesterday (T879) and I rooted it. But when I looked in the T-Mobile dev section, it was pretty sparse. Then I saw that the AT&T and International ones had so much more content.
So, are the ROMS made for the other Notes compatible with the T-Mobile Note? By compatible, I mean, 1) they won't brick my phone, 2) my radios and HSPA+ will still work, 3) generally stable.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You can use +any+ roms in this development section. Some of the roms will make your phone run super slow, but I don't know which ones.
You can use the Canadian roms, but they make the phone real laggy too.
You can use the N7005 rom. Its the internatiinal version of our model.
You can't flash any roms or apk's from the international note N7000 -- that will hard brick your phone.

What is with the complete lack of support for i905? Everything is either p7500 or p7510. In fact it is so p7500 or p7510 I ended up searching for whether or not i905 was a subdivision of one of those two models because there is absolutely no other options.
Also, why is this the only device development thread without a bible or some reference stickies! Comparatively to the other carriers who provide the 10.1, I thought verizon was the best choice due to no soft or hard caps on data plans and you essentially get what you pay for. Now I feel totally screwed. I've enjoyed xda's awesome community on my g1, mytouch, galaxy s and other devices but I feel completely homeless with this device.
I enjoy the stock rom and I'm not nearly as flash happy as I used to be, I mainly wanted a custom rom to unlock some standard bluetooth profiles that are locked by default on verizons's i905, such as A2DP. Does anyone know if you can use heimdall to install parts of a custom rom excluding the radio and other potentially brick-able parts? Or maybe any leads on just enabling the A2DP?
Thanks.
After browsing for hours more I'm starting to understand why verizon has a surplus of refurbished galaxy tabs. No doubt people are bricking their devices trying to use any of the awesome looking incompatible roms and sending them back because their is so little information about LTE vzw i905 devices anywhere. What gives? It's still a galaxy tab 10.1! Even the few roms that claim to work with LTE completely lose 4g :'(
Are verizon tabs just completely screwed?
I almost bought a verizon tab but it was priced stupid and contact if I got it was forever it seemed. Didn't know of the lack of support for it, but an really glad I never got one.
Other than current lack of custom support for it being pretty obvious, I know nothing more about it. Sorry.
If you can read this it was sent using my GT-P7510.
Hi there.
I'm fairly experienced with flashing my phones over the last couple of years, but I'm new to the Galaxy tab 10.1.
I've read many development threads and think I have a basic understanding of the Roms and keywords I should be looking for, but just want to confirm a few things.
I have the Canadian Rogers "4g" Galaxy tab 10.1, GT-P7500R. It has the buttons across the top of the tab if you're holding it in Landscape mode (like most U.S wifi models, and different than most US 3G versions, I believe).
So I guess I just want to make sure that:
-Roms that mentione "3G" should work fine
-Obviously Roms that mention "7500" should work fine.
-What about roms that simply reference Verizon, or "VZW"?
-My understanding is also that "P4" would also be relevant? (where does the P4 come from... anywhere in particular?).
-Wifi Roms will work fine, but obviously with no cellular data?
If anyone can confirm/clarify some of this, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
I have no experience with the P7500R but actually I would be supprised if flashing the P4 for 3G would work. Looking here:
androidromupdate.com/2012/03/31/samsung-galaxy-tab-10-1-4g-rogers-canada-gt-p7500r-firmware-update-and-stock-rom (sorry, I am not allowed to post http links)
it specificaly warns that the stockrom for this version is not compatible with the 3G variants.

Hmm... interesting. Thanks for the link. They say not to use it on other models because of carrier specific bloatware and default settings.... none of which should particularly hurt your device though, I'd think.
Some of the more popular Roms in the dev sections specifically have people mentioning if the Rogers Tab is working well... such as [ROM][GT-P7500] CM9 KANG (ICS Preview) (03/25/2012)
I'm just curious going forward with potential new roms that surface, which keywords to look for.

I indeed read a confirm that 4G is working with the CM9 ICS.
Well then:
P4=P7500=3G and appearantly = 4G
separate builds are made for wifi and Verizon LTE so these do not give you full functionality on your device. I believe VRZ is using CDMA instead of GSM protocol and wifi is not using any protocol ;-)
you can find some different kinds of builds here:
forum.aokp.co/page/releases/_/build-30-r12 (build31 isn't ready for the 10.1...)
I'm fairly sure someone has asked this question, but I couldn't find anything in search anywhere.
Is this possible? A lot of people are getting excited about the North American version of the phone, but there is little information about using any variation of the S3 firmwares on any S3.
This would really suck because all the development is happening on the I9300, so we don't get much development attention or flavours of ROMS.
No. And give it a few days/weeks, we'll have a ****-ton of development. 75% of the people don't even have their phones yet.
Again, NO. And if the S3 is like the Note, trying to flash an international ROM on a US phone will turn your pretty new phone into a paperweight (aka hard brick).
Thanks for clearing that up. I did forget about the fact that NA providors will only be carrying the NA variant which is probably a larger audience therefore more exposure to development.
:victory:
no... do NOT flash an I9300 rom until a developer releases a post, and dont worry. most developers dont have their phones yet, and within a couple of weeks, there will be lots of ports for roms like Omega, AOKP, CM9 ParanoidAndroid, etc
I have been having fun with some TW roms including Jedi and Jelly "Beans" but am interested in giving a CM based rom a try or similar to give a theme or two I have seen a shot that don't seem to be supported in TW based roms. However, in the Verizon note 2 development forum I cant find any roms like that. The non carrier specific forums mention specifically Note 2's that have a different model then the Verizon varient and make no mention of the i605. So I am at a loss wondering where to look and what roms I can pick that will work on my i605 and be CM or similar with themeing support.
I know I can't just flash other carrier specific roms such as t-mobile and att to my verizon phone, so I assume I can't just use the international or non carrier specific roms as well.
Any help? Maybe point me to a forum location or a rom that would be good for me to try and safe for the i605.
Well two things. First, check the original development section. That's where all the AOSP ROMs are. Second, you can flash other carriers. Some work some don't then you just restore your backup of it didn't whirl. I've ran Eclipse in my tmo note for a while
Having said that there are plenty of ROMs like what you want made for the Verizon note

I know that PACman mod worked well for me on my verizon galaxy note 2. I think that might be a good place to start.
I've used rootbox, carbon, and liquid on mine.
My Galaxy tab 2 10.1/SGH-I497 from AT&T seems to have no support for anything other than rooting. Am I missing something? I'm under the impression that only roms specifically designated for the I497 should used but it's hard to believe that there's no interest in porting over a couple of the more popular roms. Is my assumption correct, or will a rom for a non-AT&T version work and I just didn't get the memo?

I'm not sure.. but if you can find a forum for the tab 2 10.1..then ask around.. I would guess that the roms would flash fine, but you will need to find out you're APN's so you will have data after flashing a rom for another carrier..
