So Tab 3 7" owners will just be ignored?Let's leave Tab 3 with Marvell and Vivante... Coming up Tab 4 7 powered by Snapdragon MSM-8926 and Adreno 305, this device is possible to port in Cyanogenmod. Yay!!
Dont bother. This device cant get CM or anything else just sell it.

I downloaded both just to look at what was in them but really have no idea what to do with them since I'm not a dev

Where did you look for the Nexus 7 v12 replacement glass, I bought one for 25 dollars on eBay, costs between 50 - 80 if you buy from Amazon.
To replace the glass is cheap, I'm talking with the LCD combo cause I don't wanna deal with that glue lol. Plus, its been a while since I've checked on it, it could have went down in price with v13 out

Between never and not going to happen, no, just kidding. In a all seriousness though, I don't think it will ever happen, in the future I would really consider paying a little more and buy a tablet that's not only interesting too developers but isn't so, what's the word, crappy. The new Tab 4 7 is what the Tab 3 7 should have been a year ago but at a price of 200 dollars for the Tab 4 7 you would be still better served with another tablet. Samsung only uses the absolute bare minimum for their low end tablets that the market will stand. A Nexus 7 has so many custom Roms that it will make your head spin, something a Tab 3 or 4 7 will never have. Not only that but you will always have to wait at least 6 to 8 months for an update, even then you can only expect to get a maximum of 3 updates before Samsung disavows any knowledge of your tablet. The Tab line of tablets just isn't worth the frustration, spend the extra money and either buy a Pro or Note if you want a Samsung tablet or If your budget can't handle the extra expendure then buy a Nexus 7, EVGA Note 7 or Kindle 7 HDX. All but the EVGA has 2GB of RAM, faster CPU, especially the Kindle which has one of the fastest CPU's available, 1080p resolution, etc. for the same price as the Tab 4 7. The EVGA Note 7 though has an active digitizer pen, Nvidia Tegra 4, built in HDMI and only costs 180 dollars. Why a person would buy a Tab 4 7 absolutely alludes me, I think maybe Samsung is just cashing in on the ignorance of it's users and the effectiveness of their marketing campaign.

hmmm
cal,
the nexus tabs have no external storage - major fail - questionable as a design move. i've read the rationale as to why
and it doesn't add up. chalk it up to a dumbed down consumer culture maybe...
my galaxy tabs are cheap yes, but also ridiculously flexible/versitile and have largely replaced my pc
for doing things i should and probably shouldn't be doing. i live the life of someone who has to settle and or make due
with what's within reach. none of these corporations will get more of my money than is necessary.
a great deal of roms cm/aosp/aokp etc seem to be little more than cosmetic changes with borrowed ideas
incorporated into them, a steady and consistant effort in rooting, disengaging manufacturer fingerholds and all around
sculpting of your operating system more often than not yields superior results, so i don't see rom availability as being
a reliable selling point except if your a hardcore gamer first and foremost. that's a different beast.
none of the above is meant to take away from samsung's reckless model. but, these devices in the right hands
(that's right, i said it) are fairly solid. i will say my tab 2 7.0 completely blows away my t210r and p5210....
which is strange but, eh.

11We all know that we need the source code to build a working ROM (like CyanogenMod).
So, please, keep pushing Marvell to release it, because ROM development for this tablet can't go forward as it is now.
Link to request sources: http://www.marvell.com/support/contact/cust_support.do
How to compile the form:
Code:[B]First name[/B]|Put your name [B]Last name[/B]|Put your surname [B]Email[/B]|Put your email address [B]Company[/B]|Leave blank [B]Country[/B]|Select your country [B]Please select the category you need support for:[/B]|Select "Cellular" [B]Product[/B]|Type "Samsung Galaxy TAB 3 7.0" [B]Question[/B] Sample 1. [HIDE] Hi! I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy TAB 3 7.0 and I wanted to install a custom ROM on it. But source code is missing for Marvell PXA988 chipset and no one can build a working ROM. Can you release source code for your chipset, so developers can improve our device? Thanks in advance (your name) [/HIDE] Sample 2. [HIDE] Dear Marvell, I bought a Samsung Galaxy TAB 3 7.0 and I'm happy with it, but I will be more if developers are able to build custom ROMs for this device. They really need Sources for your Marvell PXA988 chipset, because without them they can't go forward. Please, release them, and they will make this device go fast as double as it is now. Regards, A Marvell-powered device user [/HIDE]

bangdes5Ask Samsung supplier: Marvell Technology Ltd. Marvell PXA988 chipset inside Tab 3 7.0 . For your reference: http://www.marvell.com/communication-processors/pxa988/index.jsp, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XScale, and https://github.com/kumajaya/android_kernel_samsung_lt023Kernel source from Samsung is sufficient. We need Vivante GC1000 Android gralloc and hwc implementation from Marvell/Samsung. As I said before, KitKat port too ambitious, JellyBean is better option. You guys too frustrate, create a lot of placeholder in development area without any content. Better sell your device to ordinary user and switch to known supported device, sorry.2
No. Even Marvell Chief Executive Officer/founder was born in Indonesia, Marvell in general not too friendly to open source world :laugh:Should we send u Tab 3 7 as a gift, for developed in CM?
2Marvell's engineer told me to ask Samsung for sources.
They don't have them.
Are they just trying to keep them from you lol? It seems like you are always being redirected
