I felt like a big tard doing my video review and dont really know if anyone found it helpful on the last release for CDMA, if it was enjoyed I might make another one asap after the next release... just curious..?

Gmail

Is there any way to get the official gmail app on the GSM tab? I have the email app which works with Gmail but not the proper Gmail app. Any working APKs about?

Looked in the market but cant find it there either
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
You mean the Honeycomb gmail, with new interface and the widget?

I have created a quick video review of the new Alpha 2.5 features. It is uploading and I will add a link as soon as it is done. I would also like some feed back (Prefer PM, I dont want to flood this thread) of how I did and what else you would like to see!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] itsjusttim:
Thanks, these videos are very nice and helpful.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] sanchez:
Sorry, I re-read and figured that out. Thanks for the update though.

thanks.....ssserpentine...

WOW - Really, great community help & insighful support in your comments.... it's highly appreciated!

For the rest: In case you downloaded the latest github source and did not find the zimage.bin file in the /updates dir - it is included in the .zip file - here.

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheATHEiST:
Obviously you was been sarcastic there.

I don't know what else you expect, If people don't take the time to read the OP of a thread or at least have a quick read through some pages how do you expect people to react every time somebody asks a question that has been answered 10+ times in the topic already?

It gets tedious for people to keep seeing the question so his reply was completley warranted.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jutley:
I am getting abit bored of waiting so in the mean time while i am waiting for gsm honeycomb to drop i have just registered my UDID and paid a few bucks for IOS5 beta1 for ipad2 gonna take that for a spin instead to kill some time.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
I have to agree here. I'd say a good 80% of the people who will end up with bricked devices from flashing this, simply didn't take the time to learn how the process works. We all had "noob status" at some point, but we took the time to do a little research, and follow instructions explicitly, and we're able to reap the rewards.

I mean, we're all here to learn, and most of us don't mind helping out at all, but people asking questions to issues that are addressed in the OP, and people complaining when they brick their GSM tab by flashing CDMA, does get a bit tiresome. It also makes everyone's job harder (including Space) when we spend time troubleshooting with people who could've avoided issues by simply reading a little bit... I know everyone's excited for HC, but that excitement goes out the window when you end up with a paperweight in your lap because you didn't use common sense...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alexgogan:
+1 and to infinity ..... Only problem is when your new the thread can wander of topic a bit..... This one included (hell) this post as well.. Since for the noob it can be hard to follow at times..... But single most important post is always the first from op and say last page.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
Very true. I personally go to the OP first, since some roms have different flashing instructions. Even though I know what I'm doing, I'll always take the time to dig through a few pages, to find out what issues people are having, and how they're being addressed. For example, I didn't know how to use Heimdall until I needed it to flash the KhasMek kernel. Now I know how to use it, and it saved me the other night, when my niece soft bricked my tab...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheATHEiST:
Well said guys!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DistortedWisdom:
Humm since we entered a phase of silence I am going to state what i want out of the final GSM FirmaWare:-

1- OC/UV Kernel (increasing CPU speed to 1.4GHz might give a smoother overall experience)

2- 3G connection

3- Phone calls

4- Market Enabler fix (it doesn't seem to do anything at this stage)

5- Titanium Backup fix (it's not working)

6- Youtube fix

7- Sd and ext SD mounts

8- Functional 3.X.X CWM Recovery

Soon my love -referring to my Galaxy tab- Soon we will have the final amulet to resurrect the spirit of the Honeycomb and we can be together again and rule the world muhahaha :cool:
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] :
I tend to get very annoyed ... mainly because there is a search function (which we all know) and it's not like forums are new... the material is. It's super easy to look something up on xda as it is, let alone using google to help you...

I learned by reading other peoples posts on xda, not to ask a question unless you've read as much as possible first... for awhile I haven't even spoken, lol.

Back to topic...

I'm going to have a great weekend testing out this new build... what on earth will I play with first???

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] spacemoose1:
By the way... I haven't had time to read the back log of posts over the last couple of days, but at a quick glance, it appears that some of you are having trouble installing the GSM build....

That's because I haven't released a GSM build yet.

You take a risk any time you flash a custom rom. Any time you flash a custom rom that is put together by someone other than the creator you take twice the risk.

I'm not saying that you shouldn't do what you want with your own device. But be aware... all of my officially released roms have been tested and have less of a chance of messing up your device than something assembled from pre-released code by someone who didn't design the rom and doesn't know all of its quirks and issues.

If you want a sure deal... wait for the official release.

But again... its your device, and it's not my place to tell you what to do with it.

The GSM release will be out tonight.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] keith.macdonald:
Yes, indeed. A couple of things: the builds that others have been hobbling together are not going to a. run as nice as the official release, b. have as many features, and c. be as easy to install.

With regards to installing any of these ROMs, the thing that anyone should keep in mind is that, if they screw something up, it was due to something incorrect that they did. We are all trying to install the same ROM(s) on the same device, so the only variable there is the user. Sure, some people might be running different firmwares, but I attribute to the user user variable the inability to factor that in...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] spacemoose1:
Thanks, it's always good to have a list of things to work towards. This latest release fixes the SD mounts, the marketplace and recovery. Now I just have to get the new kernel compiled and get the whole thing uploaded.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] itsjusttim:
Soo close to the gsm build i can almost taste it.

No! Please read the op (original post) before asking questions.

May i ask what your version of this list look like moose? Yours is much more important than ours at the moment as your the one who would be the one crossing things.off as you complete them.

Quirks I've found in 2.5 CDMA

-Upon setup wizard, no keyboard... hit menu, keyboard will appear on bottom right, slide to off postion...

-still no lock screen

Edit: FIXED^^ thanks neo4ou, enable lockscreen pattern, set it up, turn device off, back on, disable pattern, use "unsecure", reboot, boom... lockscreen

- haven't installed gmail, widget is there but no actual apk

- youtube non hd videos still work in browser, app crashes from drawer and wont play videos in it anyways

- not sure why but no usb (unless that's suppose to be for A3)... wont auto-mount (unless there is a trick)

edit again: had to completely uninstall previous drivers, all is well...

- market is gorgeous

- homescreen glitch still exists

- red graphics box glitch still present..

with audio and a marketplace, the other little things don't bother me, it'll be a great day when we have full gps also but other than that I think it's daily driver capable.

video coming soon.

Does he want to work on the development of the GSM version of spacemoose1?

And is there any chance of starting a thread in the GSM department to folow their work? Spacemoose has invited anyone who want to contribute to the project with open arms. (see the first post)

Also he/she has added this to the first post:

And one more thing:

I have come across a miss-spelling of the HC name, and thougt it would be a great name for the project.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jcan168:
Hello everyone,

First time (ever) posting on a forum. The reason I am doing this is because there seems to be a lot of confusion about how to install honeycomb on your samsung galaxy tab.

First of all, it does work but is very, very, very alpha, which means not much is working. You will not be able to go to internet because there is no wifi, therefore no market place.

I did my installation with a verizon tab with the Kleanmod V3, and latest Voodoo (if you have this on yours you know what I am talking about).

Just reboot on recovery mode and flash from SD, over and over until it takes. It you sit on the Samsung logo for more than 30 secs, hold power button until it turns off, boot into recovery mode and try again. If it does not complete flashing, hold power button until it turns off and try again, eventually it will just install.

You might be able to do the same with Sprint tab, but remember the trick is to keep on flashing same file until it just works. You will get a lot of FCs the first time you boot, once is up and running for the first time go to your applications and remove most of the ones that crash.

Once again, please remember, not much is working and it will take a couple of flashes before it boots.

Enjoy!.

A BIG, BIG THANK YOU TO spacemoose1. You Da Man!

nothing just a blank screen with the kernel or without the kirnel :(:confused:
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DiP7:
- the first step (the file system should already be ext4) - flash honeycomb (Android3.0_by_DiP_signed _narod.yandex.ru/disk/9317202001/Android3.0_by_DiP_signed_040411_235124.zip

- the second step (to flash my kernel dl.getdropbox.com/u/937719/Recovery_install_pda1.4Ghz_CWR_v_2.1.0.zip) go to the recovery and make the wipe data/factory reset

- The third step - go to recovery and flash again android 3.0

spacemoose1, dl.getdropbox.com/u/937719/bcm4329.ko put /system/lib/modules/ maybe work?

let's not invade the cdma thread anymore shall we?

post honeycomb gsm talks here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1023437
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] spacemoose1:
It might be a bit premature for that. Though the Russian project works, it's really just a straight clone of this project with an alternate kernel.

You can just drop the new kernel in the installer package and run with it, so it's basically the same thing. How many threads do we need to host the same thing?

I'd prefer that projects that make no modification to the base build stay in this thread as much as possible, (listed as a link or hosted in the file section) that way we don't have eighteen versions at different stages of development floating around. If the only mod is in the kernel, we want to make sure that the end user can select the appropriate kernel, but still get the current system build rather than an outdated one.

It's ultimately not up to me, as this software is for everyone... I didn't write it, I don't own it and it's (theoretically) open-source, so do what you want.

Just keep in mind that the more organized we keep this, the less trouble we will all have solidifying the final release and all of its device variant builds into one simple base build with selectable kernel packages.

Someone could maybe start a thread for GSM kernel development that links to this project for the system build... that seems appropriate.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] -RioT-:
So no more cdma talk vs gsm talk? We can all work together? Awesome.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ellokomen:
I finally could make it boot on my sprint tab

also I could make the tab in portrait mode

download the apk attached and using adb issue this command

adb install yourdirectory/Rotatingscreen.apk

then look for it on the apps drawer and launch it, you will be in portrait mode

(the auto rotate screen option should be checked on settings)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ellokomen:
I want to make some suggestions here:

once you are inside honeycomb, don't press the factory reset option, it will brick the OS

don't trust the recovery at all, once you have Ext4-ed your device, it's only

one more step to do.

you need to have several kernels to load it, in my case, I first had to convert

to ext4 so I followed this guide

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1009201

the zImage is the kernel itself, this is the first one you should have.

after you have done the Ext4 process, it's time to make the CWM recovery(the yellow letter) to flash the Honeycomb(HC) ZIP file.

NOTE: it may or not may work on first time, I had to do the following to sucessful achieve it:

the HC port comes with a Voodoo recovery(the red letter) , this recovery is the correct kernel.

when you flash the zip file and it won't pass the samsung logo(Mine took 7 mins to get up) and you ARE SURE that the port was succesfully installed ( if you see some flickering and flashing colors while installing then no, it was not sucessful) then go to Heimdall and install other kernel.

it could be anyone, it won't boot.

after that, unzip the HC Port and look for the zImage in the kernel folder, put it on Heimdall and flash it, that's it.

On my experience (this is the second time I install HC) this works with luck, because for some reason the recovery sometimes fail to install correctly the HC,(in one attempt of flashing HC, after the install process, it could boot.... to a Hybrid FROYO, it was no radio, some strange welcome dialog that I have never seen before, just went to recovery and flashed again) so you have to try.

remember, the key is on the kernel, switch it and flash it again with heimdall

Quick Question: Just saw some videos. Where are the on-screen buttons for home, back and task-switching? Is it just me or they are actually not there in the build?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ellokomen:
they are there, just not shown, but if you press where they should be, they respond.

here is a video that I made where is shown the notification dialog (in spanish)

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mck0y:
thx man....
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] btyork:
Wanted to poke in here for a second and ask Space if they where ok with what I've done in the general forums for our GSM tab (I'm thinking of seeing if an OP will move it to the dev thread)?

DiP actually has a couple of ROMs out there, but doesn't seem to want to start development threads for them. I may be a bit premature in that assumption, but I went ahead and posted what we knew about the GSM kernel/version and have had some decent feedback from the community.

He does appear to be updating/editing the base rom as well as his own kernel, which was one reason I felt the need to start him a thread over there. And while I am not a Dev, and don't ever claim to be, I do like to be organized to the best I can be.

It's my hope that both threads are being watched by the developers and we can build on each others while keeping them separate. It's my understanding more will have to happen than just a kernel change to get it stable on the separate devices... Correct me if I'm wrong there though.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] spacemoose1:
Yeah, if he is modifying the base and making his own custom rom it should stay separate from mine as mine will diverge from the base he is using fairly soon. At that point it becomes a separate project.

Will it ever be possible to enable overclocking in the hc kernel for the tab? It would definitely help the smoothness of the UI with an extra 40% cpu boost.

I've search the thread but could not find a prior discussion about this.

Thanks! Looking forward to the gsm build.

Eventually yes.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jtipton79:
Moose, whats it gonna take to maybe take a guess at why I cant run HC on here without it locking up? Hell its SCH-I800 from Vzw. I dont understand why my tab would be any diff. Im running the pre-rooted stock dj11 Rom, have CWM installed, and.flashing your CDMA zip with CWM. Ive even flashed it then went back and flashed the kernal alone with Heimdall with the same results. Would maybe the process have a different outcome using Odin? And if so how do I flash it with Odin? I've never used it before. Thanks
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
If Space doesn't get back to you soon (I assume she's super busy), you can PM me. Outline exactly how you went about trying to flash this, and I should be able to help. I have the same device, and I got this up and running within minutes. I'll try to help out if I can.
