Hi everyone,
Just been given a Samsung Omnia 7 to replace my old iPhone 3G. I haven't started using the phone yet as I wasn't sure if there was a better firmware for it or if you could jailbreak them like the iphone?
Is there anything like this available for the Omnia 7? I would like apps like eBay/whatsapp etc...
Thanks :good:
You can find some custom ROMs here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=820
Apps like those are already available in the Marketplace
Hello everyone,
I'd like to buy a Fitbit Flex, but I wanted to know if it would work with my Nexus 7 for syncing... If I recall correctly, with Android 4.3 there is support for BT4.0, but would the Nexus 7 get it?
Thanks,
Tiwiz

I think it will eventually support bt4.0. If the N7 doesnt get the 4.3 update directly from google, there will definately be at least an unnofficial 4.3 rom.
Id say go for it if your willing to wait for 4.3

I really want to know the state of this, because although it will get 4.3 no one has said what bluetooth spec it will get. As we know, the Galaxy Nexus has the right hardware but has been left with BT3 so will the Nexus 7 suffer the same fate?

Looks like it is working through a modded version of the FitBit tracker app. Check out this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2492436
I was just wondering if anyone thinks we will ever get a port of the MIUI or EMUI roms or ones like them? Someone may already be working on one but I think having one would be awesome. Anyone have interest in these roms other than me?

Yes, MIUI with all the features would be a great experience.
Miui 8 would be awesome... would totally use it if no major bugs

I just read that AOSPA is in the works again, it would be awesome if they supported Potter as well. So many roms I want to flash and try!
MIUI a definite must. Love that setup!

Was reading on their G+ page that there is already a booting version of AOSPA for Potter. :good: they're just testing it along with the One Plus One and a couple other devices
Currently I have played a bit with ubuntu via linux deploy, but I would really like to have something more native like ubuntu touch.
And I am happy to know and also to tell you that the project is going very well, maintained by the Ubports Team and that the Halium project can make everything more pleasant not only for ubuntu but also for other linux projects / distributions.

Generally people buy Moto phones for stock android if you are interested in MIUI you should have bought Redmi note 4 which is even cheaper then Moto G5 plus and has 64 android Although miui looks like bloat and cheap mock off of iPhone to me.
I'm in the US on the Verizon network the redmi note doesn't work here on Verizon. I was just asking about general interest in the very popular MIUI and EMUI ROMs. They exist for dozens of devices that aren't redmi devices.

I didn't bought my moto g5 plus for just using stovk android i bought it because it is high end processing device and works perfectly i just want some more customization and want to use different roms mostly emui (not miui).. and yes emui doesn't look like any of that it's cool and more vibrant
MIUI and Flyme Os! emui 5
MIUI 9 and Flyme OS(whenever it will be launched for nougat) are the most awaited roms For MOTO G5 PLUS! Even EMUI 5 Is good and feels like stock android with app drawer n Customizations!!

Sorry I sound rude but I wanted to say that even if Moto G5 plus has 64bit processor it doesn't have 64bit os and never will be on the other hand Redmi note 4 has 64bit os also. So in my opinion people bought Moto because they love stock os over miui.
Im thinking about getting a Tab 8 plus 4/64 to replace my Nexus 7 2013.
I don't see much development support for the Tab 8 Plus. Great to see TWRP and root.
Do you think there will be an XDA community for this device?
There are so few upgrade choices from the Nexus 7.

There seems to be a problem in terms of availability for the tablet worldwide, which is why very few reports have come through.
I have specifically bought this Tab 4 Plus with WiFi and 64GB storage as a Nexus 7 replacement and I am super happy with the decision. Custom recovery and root works as described. Give it a couple of weeks and I assume there will be a dedicated forum for the Tab 4 Plus here on XDA. And as soon as Lenovo publishes the kernel sources for the device, there will be many custom ROMs to choose from.
Right now, the Android on the device is pretty vanilla and serves its purpose very well.
Giving this thread a bump. Dev support for this device still seems pretty quiet. Been eyeing the 4/64 GB on eBay for $330. It ships from Korea.

Do you know if it passes SafetyNet with Magisk 14.3 and Magisk Hide or if it will require a custom kernel to hide the bootloader status?
Hey, I got myself a Tab 4 8 Plus from South Korea recently - the 4 GB RAM / 64 GB storage version. I've used CyanogenMod and LineageOS for ages on my Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 2013, and I'm a little sad the Tab isn't supported yet. If anyone involved in development is interested, I'd be happy to help however I can with my device. I'm not familiar with Android development, however - I'd totally try and port LineageOS to this if I could.
there's a guy in the root thread that was saying he was starting a debloated ROM. lets see if he delivers. this sure is the best android tablet in the market!
Hi guys, I just got this tablet from singapore seller, but it come with chinese rom,
I'm not familiar with lenovo (use to be xiaomi fans).
Is there any tutorial available to change it to global rom? and is there any forum to discuss bugs on each rom version like on the xiaomi miui forum?
I can't find any donwloadable link in the lenovo web support.
Thanks
I did get a Lenovo Tab 4 8 Plus to replace my aging Nexus 7 2013. Unfortunately, that was two months ago now and I'm still using my Nexus as this Tab 4 keeps cooking uSD cards. Apparently it's a known problem, some say hardware, some say software, some claim it was fixed with the December 2017 update, some say it's still there. Either way, I want to root this potentially sweet tablet and drop on Lineage or something custom before I give up on it, but for that I want a decent custom ROM.

Since the source code was published by Lenovo there is now a good chance to get something custom if there will be a developer to help us out building a rom.
I did read a lot of complaints about a lack of source code from lenovo, but it was released in November from what I can see. That's six months ago, so I wouldn't hold my breath for anything useful soon.
This nifty little tablet is really awesome. The almost stock android experience is nice... But the additional customisations of a custom ROM would be helpful. Right now lenovos system UI is quite picky about being modded and would FC when I try to tweak the nav bar.
yes, maybe after oreo update there will be some custom rom...

I use Xposed and GravityBox to modify the look of the Nav bar.
