GEN_1 vs GEN_2? - Acer Iconia A500

What's the difference? My a500 stock reported itself as gen_2, but all the ROMs seem based on GEN_1.

I believe Gen 1 is Europe and Gen 2 is US versions of the rom.

Yeah, but only certain countries. Then there's EMEA_TMPL.
Basically, all of the roms support the english language. Some, have a different default language set.

It's a new version of the Radio/Baseband I think.
Basically, Gen 1 ROM's don't work on Gen 2 phones and vice versa.

Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 Source Code

Even though Samsung hasn't released their stretched out Galaxy Note, they have released the firmware for their SHW-M480K/SHW-M480S through the Samsung Open Source Website. Both files are 175 MB in size, and are the South Korean versions of the firmware. I am looking forward to the development this tablet is going to get

International 3G version: GT-N8000
International Wifi version: GT-N8010
USA Wifi version (Adds IR blaster, no other known differences): GT-N8013
There's a good chance the SHW-M480W has some differences from the N8010/N8013 - For example, most Korean devices have DMB receivers.
Right now, there is not much released for the wifi variants, as the international 3G version (N8000) was released more than a week earlier than the wifi version - N8013 didn't become available until last Thursday.

There is nothing available for N8010/8013 yet... As I said before, the device wasn't released until last Thursday. Things like this take time.

I have a SHW-M480W and I just downloaded the zip file of the JB update through your link.
Do you know how to install it?
Is it even possible as I read many tutorials involving Odin with code/modem/csc/.pit but they doesn't seem to apply here... (the zip contains Kernel.tar.gz and Platform.tar.gz files)

You are completely missing the point of those files. They are source code, not install images.

Hi, Quick Question here.

Ive got a Samsung galaxy tab which has a reference band base version P7500UBKL1
While searching for a custom rom I ran across different versions of the tablet XXLQ8 or XWLP5 or UELPL
My main question is, Could i flash any of these roms and have it working?
If i do flash one of these would i loose the ability to use 3g? or would it just brick it? thank you for the support.

XXLQ8 is for Italy, XWLP5 for Baltic countries and third, I don't know (USA?). I think all of them are working in 7500. While
installing You can select Your native language, and that's all. In certain regions, as in Finland where I'm from the official ICS
is going to come maybe in some months, so nowadays I have installed Toldo's Jellybean ICS v.6 and it's working just great.

[Q] SM-T330 vs SM-T330NU - firmware

Are the firmwares for the tablets in subject interchangeable? the NU is the North American version and I'm wondering if I could flash a European version of the T330 to support mode languages. I want to add that sammobile has the firmwares listed under different codes.
Anybody knows if it is possible to flash an LTE firmware on the WIFI version of the same tablet? Thanks

I dont know, but I highly advise not install LTE on WiFi only tab, since there are hardware differences and you most likely will brick your tab

Hi,
do you've already got any further information on this? For I have the same problem: in the US we purchased a tab for my mom, but she isn't doing too well with the english UI (though she already got used to it - it's still android, after all ).
Anyway: there's also a WiFi-Version (SM-T330NZWADBT) of this tablet. Is there anywhere a firmware available for download for this particular model? And: is the firmware interchangeable in this case, as it's wifi-to-wifi straight?
Regards,
mh166

So can I install firmware from sm-t230 on sm-t230NU cause I want Polish language. or it's hidden and hidden languages are achievable with morelocale2?
"Locale More" did the job for me, all it requires is to run one adb command and it works well without root.

Where are you ordering your Redmi Note 7 from?

I live in Canada. Considering ordering from the website below (giztop). It says "global firmware" in description but global version is not out yet? So I'm unsure if this is indeed global.
https://www.giztop.com/xiaomi-redmi-note-7.html/
Edit: I contacted customer service asking if it's Chinese or Global. It's Chinese with Play Store pre-installed
You can buy it in that site, it will be shipped like two days after the official release. But I recommend you to wait for the Pro version.
Be patient, wait for the pro version or wait 2 weeks after the launch
If it's shipped with a global rom and the official global rom has not been released yet, then I'd recommend not buying it. It's most likely a Vendor ROM, which looks exactly like MIUI, but won't get any updates and you'll have no idea what else has been tampered with (which you could argue you don't with any ROMs). A vendor ROM also makes it a lot more difficult to unlock bootloader and get custom rom on your phone.

It's confusing though cuz they say "All smartphones install global software, with Google Play service, and support OTA updating" under the description.
https://www.giztop.com/xiaomi-redmi-note-7.html/
-On the same website, when it's Chinese version, it says right there in the same description box "Chinese version, English, Chinese only".

How would you find out whether the official global ROM has been released yet or no? I searched for the official ROM on miui website to see if there is a global ROM yet but the phone is not listed yet.

What is the expected release date for the Note 7 Pro?
I was planning on getting the Note 7 tomorrow when it's released, but was concerned about lack of Gapps and possibly English language pack so came here.

after the Chinese New Year, it looks like February 5th
The link I posted is the Chinese Rom
Any idea when the Global version will be out for the Note 7?
Heres a statement from a canadian.
DO NOT BUY RN7 IF YOU'RE PLANNING TO USE A CANADIAN CARRIER.
They simply do not support ALOT of the canadian bands unless youre ok with 3G All the time.
BTW: order it from aliexpress. they're wellknown and sell almost EVERY redmi device ex: Redmi note 5 pro
Anyone knows the realest date of the global version?

Most likely February, if you can't wait get the redmi note 6 pro or mi a2 lite.
I read somewhere that Redmi Note 7 Pro will be released 25.02.2019 ?
I suppose that we should wait two months for official release of global ROM
So the Chinese version will not have the additional bands even once flashed with a Global ROM?
Also the Chinese version will have an English language pack, but no Google Apps? So no play store etc.
Is this correct?

Just want to confirm one final thing, provided the Chinese bands work on my local network providers - if I order a Chinese version will I be able to flash it with a Global ROM once the global ROM becomes available?
I am thinking about waiting for the Redmi Note 7 Pro, however I have noticed that currently with the Redmi Note 7 which is being sold as a global version on sites such as Banggood and Gearbest the price is significantly higher than what it retails for on the official Mi.com website. (Roughly $175 on Mi.com vs $250 or more on the other sites).
So if I know that I will be able to flash the global ROM once it is released (hopefully within a week or two of the Chinese release) then I will try get a Redmi Note 7 Pro from the Mi.com chinese site and the shipping will take around 2 weeks to reach me. So by the time I receive it hopefully a global ROM will be available for me to flash it and I will then have an almost equivalent version of a global ROM (different network bands though).
Does this sound as if it would work? Am I forgetting or misunderstanding anything?
what's the difference btw this and pro version?

The Pro version has not been announced yet. But it will come with a Sony 48 MP sensor, better Snapdragon processor (maybe 675 or 710). I far as I know, that's the only things informed by people. It should be announced by the second week of February.
