Aside from occasional freezes/lock ups, I've noticed when you click on the clock (bottom right), and go to settings (sliders icon) the menu is invisible. anyone else experience this?

It also seems the orientation for both portrait and landscape is backwards. portrait is upside down and landscape should have the soft buttons on the right, no? No biggy since I can just flip it but found that awkward.

Other than that, I can't thank spacemoose enough for this. Totally revived the tab with HC and glad I decided to keep it and give the wife the flyer. :) Keep up the great work!

edit: also noticed the sound doesn't always kick on. If I go to sound in settings and click on the slider, it will start working.

I just want to chime in here... I'm overclocked guys, at 1400MHz... I'm not sure if others are experiencing odd results, but Set CPU is working for me, and it's verified by my quadrant scores, so it's not a glitch... :confused:
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] itsjusttim:
On Alpha 2.5? Good find by the way
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Zeerez:
home button

Does anyone else having ossues with the home button not working?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] itsjusttim:
Yes, its an issue. If you have read the last few pages you would see that.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
It's been that way since 2.0 actually... hey, I'm not complaining. As long as I can overclock, I'm not asking any questions! Lol. You should be really satisfied with the GSM release btw. If it has all the features that CDMA enjoys, you're getting one hell of a first release, and it's definitely worth the wait! :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] grukko:
Does the UI seem smoother to you at 1.4ghz? Just wondering if it makes a noticeable difference.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] itsjusttim:
Ahaha yeah... From what all you Cdma guys are saying and showing through your videos it looks amazing. Im ready for it too, on Overcome 2.0, and converted to ext4. I use my tab as wifi only so im personally good without 3g! =P

And as soon as i flash it ill oc to 1.4, test a few things and set up widgets for a few minutes then make a video for all the other gsm guys.

Do you guys/girls think the first gsm release will be Alpha 2.5 or Alpha 3? =)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cylent:
spacemoose is doing an excellent job taking much of your time to do this for us however i think this one point (at least for us gsm-users) should be first on the list:

saving the config for wifi and keyboard settings.

so that when you reboot you dont have to reconnect

and change the keyboard from hardware to software

but most importantly the wifi -- please

thanks.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Bobboman:
is there anyway to set up the screen so that my physical captivate buttons are on the right and the power/volume rockers are on the top when the device is facing me in landscape, and that the physical captivate buttons are on the bottom when it rotates to portrait?

edit: also imma gonna second the whole changing it so i don't have to turn on the keyboard everytime i reboot, while its a minor inconvenience, it does annoy me when i have to reset up my google account when upgrading to the next version

however, thank you for honeycomb and anyword on merging in 3.1?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
I'm thinking 2.5 for sure. It only makes sense that Space would want to keep the updates streamlined, so you guys should get the same build that we have. That way, Space won't have to worry about mix-ups between the two versions. I'm telling you, this release is beyond nice!! A couple minor glitches (no YouTube, except for online, and there's a weird red border around the edge of the screen on occasion), but sound is working, games are working, lockscreen is good, extra widgets are nice, home button works, calendar syncs, etc. I'm a happy boy! :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] chriskader:
I am using setcpu as well at 1400 mhz. Also youtube plays with HD turned off.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] itsjusttim:
I thought that edge light up on the screen was a honeycomb feature? Like to show selections and all that? Im probably wrong there though...

But yes, your probably right about Alpha 2.5 being the first Gsm release. I just hope our Gsm developers [since we have more than the Cdma section] help moose out and get some of the glitches fixed and get some more extras in there.

.

Good to see another person @1.4oc. Also good to know on how to get youtube to work!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Buried:
No, the red thing around the edges of the screen is called the Strict mode indicator and it's for developers and it's usually in SDK builds (which is what spacemoose1 is working on)

I've tried turning it off in dev tools but it's been forced-enabled for some odd reason.

Anyways, here's the Alpha 2.5 I've compiled for GSM users, a few things are different from sm's build. Strict mode indicator should be off now (hopefully)

This is still using the Alpha 2 kernel so there are still problems, but for the people who can't wait for an official release, knock yourself out

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] chriskader:
A few more things to add. I recommended thumb keyboard from the market. Yeah it costs money but it is worth it. Also I had issues with the xda app going landscape. What I did to fix this was launch the xda app and then launch the screen rotate app. I am using my tab with honeycomb and Pandora playing in the background while oced at 1.4 ghz and it is amazing. Who needs a dual core terga 2 lol
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ssserpentine:
alright guys,

giving gsm version spacemoose alpha 2.5 a test run with a new kernel!

updates comming!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Buried:
Wow yes, sm1 did indeed add a new kernel, please do tell me what's new :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] dedrics:
Awesome build Space!!!! However My SD does not auto mount

Anybody have any suggestions?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] keith.macdonald:
Woot! Can't wait! :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] itsjusttim:
Oh ok. Thats really good to know!

.

Lol, how did you get that.. tester? Knowing your awesomeness you compiled it youself from sp1 git didnt you? Will watch for your updates.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] k0sh:
dude couldn't you read what the Dev says ?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Buried:
Well, for the testers out there who can't wait, or for developers who want to take sm1's build for a spin to implement things (myself included) it's fun to test these things.

However, I'm not going to release any of my builds for the sake of sm1 completing his/her work, ssserpentine's doing an awesome job compiling builds for people less inclined on doing so.

(on that note, I'm trying out the new kernel and will report the differences)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
Quick question... have you had any issues with the numbers and symbols in Thumb Keyboard getting super small on this rom? For some reason, mine show up fine on initial setup, but after a few minutes, they all get small, to the point of being unrecognizable. Have you had this issue? I'm using the 7" layout with the default skin (landscape) if that helps at all. Thanks in advance, and nice video; I'll add a comment to the video thread in a few. :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Buried:
OK that's weird. I've installed the one with the new kernel and in settings it seems to be reporting as an Overcome kernel?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ssserpentine:

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] lucian777:
Me too...lol and sdcard doesn't mount screen of is the same...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Buried:
It's exciting to see the spacemoose is ironing out the problems, this new build seems much smoother in terms of scrolling.

The lock screen problem is still the main thing that NEEDS to be fixed and I'm sure spacemoose is working hard on it.

Thanks spacemoose! Awesome work.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DistortedWisdom:
Thank you SM1, where we are right now is great (i Just made a .zip file out of the latest repo with the GSM Kernel)

however, there are two killer problems and they are as follows:-

1- when the screen times out the tab will Auto-reboot

2- I can not access the SD Cards (Internal nor external)

If those were fixed i would definitely use it as my Daily ROM, of course Having 3G at some point is crucial.

Thanks again moose :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] chriskader:
So I downloaded several movie players and I could get movies to play but they where all split and colored weird. I am going to try to encode them differently and see.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] :
screwed around with some stuff with flash, used various tricks on xda, finally got hulu to give me broken up sound... now if only it weren't broken up... and it had video... lol
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] lasimo0:
Donation made. Thanks spacemoose1!

Everybody: Is there a trick to not get lockups going to homescreen? I have tried home button and back with the screen freezing most times. Usually have to hit the screen preview button, go to a recent program, then back out of that. Even that only works sometimes.

Everything else is coming along VERY nicely. This is getting really close to being a daily driver.

i use adw... no lockups

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] lucian777:
Thanks Space!... ive already tried the latest kernel and the screen off makes the tab to reboot. By the way in about settings it says that it's an overcome kernel, its ok? Thanks again!

is there anything im missing? USB debugging mode is ticked by default!

drivers are working fine and everything else is in place is there anything that i should do before i try ADB shell?

when i connected to ADB the first time it started fine but froze and crashed... ever since every time i type in adb shell it does nothing!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] olaf bosch:
- sorry to say, but gsm / cdma differences have little to do with the carrier providers, more so - cdma is a mostly american used technique of waving our communication needs into the air gsm is serving about 4/5 of the mobile communications on earth.

Code-Division Multiple Access (CDMA) and Global System for Mobile communications (GSM)

for the tab, if you can call with it and don't need to put a sim card in it first you probably have a cdma tab. cdma tabs don't have a sim slot, gsm tabs do.

just google and you'll find all your needed and unneeded answer.

cheers.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ssserpentine:
Hey all.

Holding off on my review until I go back to froyo bootloaders.

If u still wanna see my crappy vid. Its at 86%.

For a look see, this vid will still do. Just ignore the part where the tab reboots upon power press. It will be fixed if u downgrade ur bootloaders.

which is not the safest venture.

I haven't had any luck modding the default screen orientation.

Am gonna try to write a script that runs on boot to auto mount sd links.

Stay tuned for a step by step guide and my crappy vid.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ipit:
hey mate...I had already setup my Tab with GB stock safe v2 in preparation. Can I just use odin to flash over it with 'JMK Sotck Safe' pit+pda? or is there some other step to be performed first. Thanks :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mattman83:
The link is in the guide attached to first post in overcome 1.6 thread. You'll want the stock-safe and overcome kernel (odin version), though there's no need for the overcome rom itself.

Flash the pit + pda and then after flash the kernel in the pda field again to give you CWM. Unlike the v2 Overcome, the 1.6 stock-safe doesn't have a kernel with CWM so you just need to go this extra step. Make sure you reboot a couple of times to let things settle, make sure the EXT conversion takes place, once you're done you can flash HC from recovery like normal.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ipit:
thanks buddy. perfect!! I edited the first part of my post as I found it in the meantime.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] :
on the way to bed but a couple of tidbits from testing tonight..

-usb for me worked however, I had to uninstall drivers, only ever got it to actually show me the contents of my SDCARD once and after that it showed as a cdrom (windows 7)

-in this version, my "hard-keys"work... that is, I have ADW EX installed to avoid homescreen crashes and I just realized the all 4 buttons work how they should... the drawback, pressing home wont show you your cool HC gui like you want... it's adw... the plus... you can go home from any app now.

- with tweeks, flash wants to work in hulu and youtube and veetle.com... I can't discern why it wont show flash video's, not even the frames, but i can hear sound, all-be-it lag-filled and skippy... hearing audio makes me wonder if it's then a graphics acceleration issue or what, my technical knowledge of android os is nill... so... yea.

-the rom has an average lifespan for battery, i have setcpu installed and it shows me to be oc'ed to some degree... i'm maxed out... it runs great althought i haven't ran a QC, not sure if it'd even be accurate enough to share.

-gallery fc's upon first boot

- can't reboot with cable plugged in

-dropped a bootanimation in from the galaxy as well as the zoom to no avail... i'm guessing the kernel calls for it and it doesn't know who it's calling...

-no flash tweak I did all the way back to 9.0 worked... and I tried everything to get it to work with UA String as desktop and plugins always on... just absolutely refused to work with me all night.

-the sdk, of course, still has the red box that flashes from time to time, i've noticed it more in the market.

I think that's all I have for now, this rom is great though even not being an RC... it's snappy enough to compete with anything i've seen to date, I'm impressed.

A big thanks again to everyone who has helped and to Spacemoose1 especially.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cx5:
Hi chriskader

I saw your youtube of the 2.5 alpha. Liked the way you show stuff, objective oriented. Speed of speech and presentation just nice.

I would like to feedback that a permanent video angle, distance and position might be easier for viewers to absorp, else the moving around might be dizzy and seasick. Also I propose for you to use manual-focus, cancel the autofocus because vid-cam r not smart. Don't get too close either most cam don't macro-focus.

Hope you don't take this the wrong way. Appreciate your vid, effort and upload.

So are we now saying it is better to use Froyo stock overcome v1.6 rather than gingerbread stock v2 safe overcome 2.0 whats the difference will it make.?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] chemita:
Thank you very much! then wait. Only a terminal in burning my hands .... :-)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] 8afri:
Giving it a try. Downloading @ git and overcome kernel and see how it goes :-)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mattman83:
If using froyo bootloaders (which the overcome 1.6 stock-safe will include) then you don't get crashes with the power button and also lockscreen works.

M.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] lucian777:
Its all about the bootloader there is an issue with gingerbread bootloader preventing the tab from waking up from sleep, that's why the cdma users dont have this issue because they are on froyo bootloader. Space is trying to fix this right now. If you look in the galaxy dev thread HC, they have the same issue, the Hc works only from froyo bootloaders.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jutley:
Ok can you show me the link to this 1.6 stockovercome safe froyo rom
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] lucian777:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=932082

i advice you to wait for Space to fix the kernel to properly work under gingerbread bootloader
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ipit:
just out of interest, is there any advantage to having a GB bootloader over Froyo?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] lucian777:
Reflashing bootloader is the safest way to brick your tab, now that most of the people are on gingerbread bootloader its kind of a risky job to go back to froyo bootloader.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ipit:
took me a minute to do that using oc/mattman's suggestion. Stuck the Froyo stock files in odin and that's it. Followed by froyo kernel. No issues at all.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ameer1367:
battery

how will the battery react with HC?

on FROYO= my battery last 2 days (with battery defender ofcourse

on ginger= its now like 1 day and 1.5 if i dont use it a lot.

Honey=???

can people plz test the battery on HC? as HC is more advanced and fancy i bet it will suck all the juice up.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jutley:
The only advantage at the moment is lock screen and power switch crashing are ok in froyo but not gingerbread lets wait for spacemoose to fix this issue and then we can take it from there.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mattman83:
+1, I have the froyo gear sitting waiting to be used if needed, but no point flashing them if not needed :D Lets just wait and see....

M.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] lucian777:
Like i said Space is already working on Gingerbread update + Voodoo 9, so what's the use to reflash the tab over and over instead of waiting a couple of hours.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ipit:

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ipit:
I don't have an issue with that. I just wanted to know IF GB bootloader has ANY advantage over the Froyo Bootloader. It's just a question which I"m interested in
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mattman83:
No nothing special. The only reason people are saying to wait is just because flashing bootloaders is a good way to brick your tab if you aren't careful :) If we sit and wait, we may not need to flash froyo which = safer flashing. If we still need to, I will, but no point taking the risk if not needed.

M.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ssserpentine:
Anouther advantage with gb bootloaders is it saves wifi passwords. As froyo doesnt but fixes power button crash.

I cannot get sd card, internal or external to mount on either one.

Any gsm users got sd access yet?

Ps

If your not extreemley experienced. Do not flash your bootloaders.

If on gb stay tnere.

Froyo, stay there
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ipit:
gotcha thanks! so I'll stay on froyo. I was worried I had to flash back for some reason to gain some benefit.

Read the first post on what works/what doesn't. It's alpha and there are things missing. Also, wait for the Alpha 2.5 GSM release from spacemoose before you flash anything.

But really, being an alpha you kind of need to know what you're getting into - I suggest you do some reading first.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mattman83:
1 - read the thread
