Anyone here use the latest Yahoo Mail v1.2.0? I went ahead and upgraded before noticing Samsung Galaxy devices are currently not supported.
Seems to be working okay but no longer brings up my yahoo contacts. It only gets contacts from my phone address. Just curious.
Same here wtf?.. It pisses me off how many apps dont support vibrant.. Ous there a reason to this?

Probably it is due to TouchWiz and the fact that it is not as popular as HTC Sense? I am just guessing.

This is the second app I've read that doesn't support Galaxy S phones. Kind of don't see how it could be TW but it very well could be because of Samsung's ****ty launcher. But it sucks because we have a phone that's selling like dare I say it, "iPhones", now at 3 Million phones and it's been out for almost 5 months now and we still have apps that don't support it? Come on.
a lot of apps that say they don't work on galaxy s work on Froyo.
so...... get ur JK2 on!!!
For me being able to use Flash is the reason I started using Android! I despised the idea of not being able to see exactly what I could from my PC! Now Adobe is getting rid of Flash all together!!! I was about to place my order for the Nexus 7 when I read about this! I don't know what to think, not sure if I still want to order it or not! Is this a deal breaker for anyone else???

You'll still be able to use Flash. Just download it now. They will still provide updates/patches, but they won't allow fresh installs after mid August. So if you have it now, keep it. If not, I'm sure an apk will always be available for you.
Flash works perfectly on Android 4.1 on the Galaxy Nexus.
Though it is being taken down, simply backup the APK and you can install it later. It works with the recently updated firefox.

Excellent problem + solution .. dang .. that was almost a deal breaker..
The concern now is the next version of Android, will 5.0 break flash support?
Flash simply is not needed anymore. Most sites are not using it anymore and those that do wil be dropping it soon now Adobe is not going to support it anymore.

I'm tired of that argument. "Most" sites don't? There are certainly some that do and their migration to HTML5 is not so buttery smooth. Flash is a resource, it completes the experience. It's a valid reason why a lot of people haven't migrated to Windows Phone or ignore the iPhone. The industry, thanks to Apple, is pushing "Apps" when a Flash equipped browser can do what some apps try to do but can't. Honestly, do you see banking sites and web apps being migrated to dumb downed app versions on a PC? No. There might be some productivity software like Mint but overall, the web with flash is very important. Until there no longer exists web based flash content, then we can say there is no need for flash. Until then, it's perfectly reasonable to want flash.

Any major change to Android will break flash, unless its a 3rd party version which could be updated.

Just wondering if you all are going to flash CM when they make it or another AOSP?
I know it will come soon especially since the Nexus 5 will have similar specs as with the 9005

I've owned Android since the good old days of the Google G1.
I don't think I've seen 1 version of CM that ran perfectly, no ROM was ever 'finished'.... so I'll be staying away from them from now on.
I'm actually probably NOT going to root my Note 3, can't see what I need to root it for tbh.

My first was the original galaxy i7500 but my cm experience was on the milestone 2 then g2x.
I really like cm when a device is no longer supported by their respective companies.
When I had the nexus 4, I used the latest cm 10.2 nightlies because to me the stock AOSP was lacking a few functions.
The note 3 has its own set of functions that I don't think we will ever see on CM.
However, would be very nice to have a dual booting system so I could flip flop between the two.

If the s4 has it, I am sure the note 3 900 will get it too.
One the biggest reasons for getting the 9005 was because I wanted to stick with a SOC that is easier for devs to work with.
Especially about a year from now when Sammy releases the note 5 and forgets about the note 3, we can at least update to the latest Android with CM

I usually run Paranoid Android on all my devices, but my experience with stock/rooted Note 3 so far has been fantastic, so I'm probably just going to run with things as is for the time being. Once PA releases I'll probably have to reevaluate though ;p

I kinda feel the same, I bought a few apps recently because it's not rooted. and these apps I'm happy to support because I use them on a daily baisis, like business calendar, poweramp, mx player etc. but I do find root useful for ntfs micro sdcard, especially when a file is bigger than 10GBs.
but what I really liked about a custom rom was editing minor things, having 8 icons along the screen horizontally. instead of what right now, 4? also all apps are HUGE dpi. I feel like when I load my mail. every mother fcker can read it from 5 metres away from me lol..
Ill Probably try it but wont stay with it. Lately on my s4 ive been preferring modded TW roms and will probably continue that with the N3

Not Cyano itself, but I'm waiting for an AOSP derivate, SlimBean.
I don't want to even see Samsung's bloatware ever again.
I'm done with rooting and adding ROMs. I've rooted just about every phone I've owned, and they've never ran 100%. Something always had an issue and not running properly. Today's phone are almost perfect anyway. The Note 3 is bad ass just the way it is! If I do anything to it, it's maybe using Themer to give it a fresh look, but that's it?

I have been pretty impressed with the performance of the GN3 even after rooting. I am also using the s-pen functionality a lot more than i anticipated. I doubt there is any need to go the CM route.
A little off point, but someone mentioned they hadnt rooted yet. I had gone a week without rooting and was fine, but i had to root for tethering (havent installed an app yet though). So far, i have also included quite a bit of additional apps for the Pen Window - VERY handy.
I just need a ROM that will allow tethering.

what are these features?
I really hope Samsung implements LG KnockOn gesture though... to save me from pressing the hardware buttons again and again
Maybe a stupid question, but why are we not seeing any AOSP roms at this time ? With other devices they appeared much faster. Dont get me wrong, no trolling on ETA. Cant wait to see this beast (snapdragon 800) run stock android
I'm just waiting to be able to root my phone without voiding its warranty due to KNOX :/

multi window, pen window, air view, S note to name a few. And I generally like the look of touchwiz as well.

Looks like the AT&T Tab S2 now supports NumberSync. Can someone post the AT&T Marshmallow ROM? I'd like to install it on my international SM-T815, and see if I can get calls to work. Also, the AT&T ROM should allow the Samsung Gear app to work.

You neither could nor would want to install the att firmware on your device.
If it could and you somehow managed to flash the bootloader you would end up with a locked device forever.
Flashing the system.img is possible, but why when the MM software is already available for your device?

Like I said:
1. I would like to use the Numbersync feature so I can share the same phone number across all my devices.
2. I would like to install the Samsung Gear app from the PlayStore so I can pair the tablet with my watch.
Instead of messing with the SM-T817A ROM, I'll probably just pick up a tablet from AT&T.

So if I have the Sm-t817a tablet will I eventually get the MM update? I bought it off Craigslist the other day and didn't care about the LTE but it was perfect condition 9.7" for $300 . I don't really care about rooting it or anything and it sounds like I'd be screwed anyway if I was bit I have my Nexus devices for that.

So, How did it go? I got the update a couple of days after you and everything is perfect except for the keyboard. Very Often, while I am typing, the system inserts spaces and misses characters etc. It can be a real pain in the a$$ to type on the tablet now.
Well, here we are, 17 days later; and the typing problem is Long Gone. Weird... But, Good !!
BTW
I performed a factory reset before and after upgrading just to be safe.
Anyone else ever receive the update? I'm still stuck on Lollipop.

I finally got the update. I didn't have my AT&T sim in the tablet anymore. As soon as I put the AT&T sim back in and checked for the update, it pushed out. Not sure if this will affect anyone else or not.
won't find the update
I've tried doing the update OTA and it hasn't found it yet.
I've tried to do it through KIES and it says that this device is supported by Smartswitch and won't let me do it that way.
I want to do it through Odin, but I cannot find the update file.
Does anyone have a link or copy of the rom so I can get mine updated?
Thanks!
After talking with AT&T, the only way to update this tablet without AT&T service is to go to Best Buy and have them push it for you manually. Alternatively, you can call Samsung @800 726 7864 and they have a way to push it from the cloud or something.
Yes, old thread, but this tablet is STILL the bomb and many people are buying them used off of eBay only to find the last owner never bothered to update to Marshmallow.

I was in the market for a new e-reader (OG Nook Book just wasn't cutting it any longer). Ended up with a Tab 2, but the Nook version due to the additional $50 discount. Was surprised it came with MM, but now I'm trying to figure out how I can get Nougat on it. This tablet really is the bomb!
I can't seem to find the app to connect my S3 Frontier to my 6t. It says the Gear app isn't compatible with my phone. Anyone have similar issue and/or fix?

Don't be a jerk. I understand this issue may be frustrating you but don't allow that frustration to cause you to be rude to those trying to help you. I've actually got both my Samsung Wireless Ear Buds and my Frontier watch synced and connected to my 6T. During the process I was actually led to the pages to install what I needed. I'm between classes right now. Let me get home later this afternoon and walk you through it. I can PM you or just post it here in case anyone else needs to see the info.
