[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] msgfromside3:
Thanks. I will give it a shot. I usually don't deal with my PC to download overcome, so I didn't get a chance to make a copy.

I just did the factory reset from Android menu. I never screwed it in this way (I have been flashing overcome and other roms/kernel for months). When my tab reboots, I always get "Data wipe failed" and bunch of other messages. I cannot actually turn off my tab now - it always boots to the recovery menu, which is not functional.

EDIT: Looks like it doesn't help as I still get the same error in the recovery menu. It isn't even CWM. Looks like I might have to restock it. I just wanted to save a few pics from /sdcard. :(
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
Even after flashing the Hermes kernel via Odin? That's really weird. In theory, it should give you a fully functioning CWM. That way you can at least mount your internal storage as a "flash drive" on your PC.

Flash it in the PDA section, without the "repartition" but with "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" checked. Tell me what it does when it reboot. In theory it should try to reboot into the ROM. If it can boot into the ROM or not, shouldn't matter. Then power down and try to get into recovery manually. This is the part I want to know clearly what happens... can?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] k0sh:
i think he need to flash stock safe , this issue happened to me when i updated to Hermes , stock safe did the trick and never had the issue again
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
Yes, he probably needs to restock.

But the issue here is trying to help him recover the pictures stored in his internal SD card. Restocking with the Overcome stock-safe package wipes the internal SD by design, and that would make him lose the data.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] msgfromside3:
Yup, done that already but no difference (I know how to use Odin.. used it since roto was creating his thing without bootloader in early tab age). I cannot capture everything because things scroll up but it seems the wipe operation fails and there is no way to get back or cancel the operation. I cannot even power it down - it restarts automatically.

The worst thing now is that it is in soft brick mode after trying to install different kernel (koxudaxi) hoping to recover from this. I guess I really have to wait for the next overcome.

BTW, I remember I installed different kernel on the top of Hermes a few days ago. Maybe that caused this but I am not sure (theoretically it shouldn't). Why did I try to factory reset? Because I have been experiencing sluggishness with OC lately (that was the reason why I tried koxudaxi kernel in the first place because it worked very well with OC Gold release).

Thanks! I am going to sleep. I guess I won't have tab for my alarm tomorrow.

PS: I think I am okay with losing those pics (my son's). I backed up the most recent one but I guess I am losing the one from this weekend.

PS2: K0sh, yes, i just read your post. I am having that big fat orange icon.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] k0sh:
o0ops sorry i didn't notice this issue , if so , he need to flash the stock gingerbread any stock with PIT and no worries about his files in the internalSD , as nothing gonna delete except few things names , accounts and this things .. i'm sure about it 100% i never flashed stock rom and my files wiped ;) so this is his solution and i guaranty that

Edit : stock gingerbread and not stock safe gingerbread .. and he better download it from samfirmware.com , take the photos out and then flash the stock safe
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] msgfromside3:
My internal SD is ext4. Will this process still save the pictures? I thought any stock with PIT wipes the internal SD (done that with Gold -> Hermes with my stupidity).

I will try that out now.

EDIT: Okay. This is soooo weird. I reflashed the kernel again and saw the same message. I left it on for a while and it ran the same script again, which basically failed with not being able to find some scripts in /cache partition. Then reboot then Hermes is back completely. Looks like it somehow failed the whole factory reset procedure. I am going to backup my pics now. :) And I will probably restock when the new OC is available.

Thanks all!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] k0sh:
PIT never deleted my files , only the system files and some other stuff that is not necessary , names ( you can backup) msg(you can backup) etc , give it a try ;)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nobleskill:
PIT = partition information table(?) Or something close anyway. You would have to assume that its going to wipe whatever data is in any partitions it needs to change. Maybe not but I wouldn't count on it.... safe bet... backup your important keep sakes before any CMW work or Odin...

Just my 2c

Sent from my GT-P1000
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
It actually depends on the ROM package. Some ROM contains the movinand.mst file and that usually wipes the internal SD and of course, some do not. It really depends on the package.

Maps 5.7 With Worldwide Nav

Google Maps 5.7 with Worldwide Navigation (CWM Flashable zip courtesy of your friendly neighbourhood Team Overcome :))

http://mimzo.com/files/004001-Maps_With_Worldwide_Nav_5.7.zip

Thanks to DarkPal for finding the map
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] globalgpj:
Do we have to uninstall Google Maps (running resign maps v5.6) first, or can we simple install over it by installing the new maps ZIP file through CWM ?

EDIT. Solved my problem. I just uninstalled street view, then google maps v5.6, went to my download folder using ES File Manager and clicked on v5.7 and installed it, then installed street view again, and all is working fine.. Easy :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
This is a CWM flashable zip so you do not need to uninstall the old one.

It is advisable to wipe Dalvik Cache after installing (I will automate this in a future update of the zip)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ashdragon:
How is this version of Google maps any different to version 5.7 now available on the market? Must be something different otherwise why not just install it from the market as opposed to having to use CWM ?????
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
As the name suggests, this is patched to enable navigation all over the world
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] G0belet:
Hi guys,

First of all I'd like to thank all the people who are making this ROM what it is now. I never liked flashing anything other than stock ROMs on my devices, but seeing how Overcome was always about light touches that make the experience much better for the user, and not radically changing everything, I decided it was a good choice for me :P

Will the new kernel include the very recently released Voodoo Sound v10 driver?

Thanks :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] globalgpj:
Dalvik cache? ??? Please explain where & how. Thanks
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ashdragon:
Ok, suprised that there are areas that weren't already navigation enabled.. I would have thought it was available world wide originally, at least in areas that have been mapped sufficiently well anyway...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] eongab:
go to recovery mode then navigate to “advanced”, select/confirm, then navigate to “Wipe Dalvik Cache” and select as well as confirm.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nobleskill:
More precisely its dependant on the pit file used for the purpose of what I was referring too. Obviously any scripting within any ROM can effectively change any files but I was simply making the point that I wouldn't rely on a Odin flash not wiping any petition based solely on previous experiences ...

That's another 8 so total of... my 10c

EDIT: just for context...

Sent from my GT-P1000
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
Google Maps (as we generically know it) consists of three main components:

1. Maps (available with coverage everywhere, although the level of detail varies depending on location subject to many factors including politics/security)

2. Navigation (your basic Point A to Point B navigation tool and this is available only in a few countries- not even all of Europe)

3. Street View (available in very few countries)

The patched Maps file unlocks Navigation for the rest of the world so you basically have components 1 and 2 fully functioning

I hope this explains things
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] globalgpj:
I followed what you said and on first reboot, I got all sort of FCs and had to reboot. :eek:

I really got worried there for a moment. Then all went well on second reboot.

You maybe using a different device than I am, as I am using Android NAND on my HD2.

Thanks. :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ayong chia:
Will i get surprise after 1 hour? :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mtbsoft.:
Interesting. That begs the question of whether this same file (which is somewhat generic it would seem) can be used on other devices? As I'm shortly going to Europe, it would be nice to be able to use my Desire OR my Tab for navigation, depending on circumstances - be nice if this patch was not device specific.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jackfrost7:
Can anyone think of why my data connection would just stop working after awhile?

Sometimes after it stops working I will get immediate unable to connect errors, and sometimes it will just sit there forever before timing out...

The only way I've found to fix it is to reboot... if theres some other way (preferably fixing it so it doesn't happen), that would work too.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] edan1979:
there is one thread in dedicated android section for google map. usually they do make the same patch there... last time i try it was mean to be use for all android device.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alterbridge86:
It's not - you can use it on any device. It simply replaces the Maps.apk in /system/app.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] 4exess:
24hrs , cant stop countin ;)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kmrdeva:
Hermes' successor has a new name.. I--s.. :)

OC team, will the upcoming release be a non-wipe upgrade over Hermes?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
The best is yet to... :p:D:cool:
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nscosta:
Next realese will be named "best"...;)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] robobear:
and that next release is making me forget starcraft II and keep on gluing the monitor and this thread...

all the while my P7500 dont have any stable custom rom... lol

i messed up my P1000... in need of reflashing hermes but now.. argh the suspense..

ICARUS has landed!

It's here...at long last :P

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Wow. Loving the new look :D

EDIT

Screw it, I'm gonna leave CM7 and try this out. Just before I go on holiday... This can only end well :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
Enjoy guys!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
Let the crawling begin :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] hkbr:
Thank you Overcome team!! downloading Icarus now.....
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ayong chia:
Two thumbs up for u :D the website looks more professional ;)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] 4exess:
btw did u removed BLN patch AB?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Gigamaster89:
Now to figure out how to setup the tab for the first flash :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
Read the guide :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Alvin Lai:
O/c to 1.6ghz seriously?

This this will break the quadrant score.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alterbridge86:
Not at this time - working on an alternative however.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jonamafun:
So despite moving to version 3.0.0, I presume we can update from Hermes 2.0.1?

Or is a full wipe recommended?

Also, have any of the modems been updated? Specifically the one for Telstra/Australia?

Thanks for your fantastic work!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Alvin Lai:
Can't wait just flash the kernel first.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Gigamaster89:
I did, but let me just make sure I got the steps right on my AT&T rooted tab:

- Backup

- Check/patch bootloader

- Upgrade to stock-safe gingerbread

- Flash new rom

Sounds about right?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] 4exess:
kernel still overwrites the file on boot? or can i use the patched one for 4 secs?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Your Tab too. I can only just get there, and the media server breaks when I do. Be careful...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alterbridge86:
Still overwrites it at boot. I am going to add a switch in next release.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] hkbr:
The new hosting and download servers are extremely fast.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
A full restock according to the guide is always the preferred recommendation of the team.

The modems are the same.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] :
now downloading...........ICARUS!!!!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ayong chia:
But will it be problem when i update from Hermes 2.0.1? i am quite sure that the recommendation is the full restock ;)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Gigamaster89:
Where is the restocking guide? Under the install guide, it says check the Tweaks/FAQs but I couldn't find it there. Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] __coma__:
Thank you Overcome team!! downloading Icarus now.....
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] 4exess:
love the new bootani
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
We've tested it... and so far, no issues.

But nothing beats the minty freshness that a full-restock offers!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] bigeyes0x0:
On my self-tweaked tab with stock DXJPE + ext4 converted + kox's kernel, installing the kernel alone does not work through either CWM or Odin. With Icarus kernel it stuck at the Samsung Galaxy Tab screen (the first screen when you start the tab). Just FYI, I don't care either the kernel works on my setup or not as I just wanna see if it is any better. Still, if you have free time to fix my specific config and need more information I'd gladly provide it.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alterbridge86:
The restocking guide is IN the install guide starting from "Preppin' The System"
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
The reference in the guide to the Tweaks page is for the rationale behind Restocking. (I'll edit it for more clarity now!)

The restocking process is in the guide under the section "Re-“Stocking” Yer System… "
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
The time saved by not doing it unless completely needed beats it. Not being tied to Windows because you never restock beats it. The list goes on ;):D:p

(I've just come from CM7, using the wipe version, no restock. All is good, ja?) :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jonamafun:
Posting from Overcome v3.0.0 Icarus =)

2am here so no time to restock, but the upgrade appears to have worked flawlessly.

Also set OC to 1.5ghz to see how it goes.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] theduke89:
What about Modem??

Please could anyone explain me the Modem thing?? Why isn't it included in the rom? And what is that needed for? I mean, could I use my 3g tab also without installing modem?? Thanks in advance :o I'm just downloading your rom, because peolpe says it's GREAT :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alterbridge86:
The modem controls the 3g radio in your device. If you go into settings->about you will see the "baseband" version - that is your modem.

It is not included in the rom because different modems work better in different places - if I included one I could potentially break a subset of users. For example, T-Mobile US customers require a specific T-Mobile modem. Without it, they will not get 3G connectivity.

If you follow the guide it will take you through getting overcome up and running without any difficulty. When asked to choose a modem, simply pick one based on our recommendations. Alternatively, if you leave the "Phone" field blank in Odin when you restock, you will keep the modem you currently have.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] theduke89:
So...my baseband is P1000XXJPZ (I'm in Italy if this can help)...tell me if I'm wrong: first I'll install new Icarus from clockwork (I perfectly know how, don't mind) and only THEN the jpz modem. After flashing rom and modem I'll reboot. Is that right?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alterbridge86:
If you are just installing through clockwork you won't need to flash a modem at all. The JPZ modem you have will remain intact. :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] zaxondis:
Lunch? I don't need no stinkin' lunch! :-)

You've just given me a reason to stay at my desk during lunch today (other than the mugginess outside).

Thanks again @Alterbridge and all of Team Overcome! Loving the new site look, restocking now, can't wait to see what Icarus is all about.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] theduke89:
AH......ahahahah :D thank you anyway!! I'm just using the stock gingerbread (updated via kies) rooted by myself with another kernel I found on a site :) so...ok, i'll just backup and flash your rom :D feedback coming soon!!!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] louser:
Love the new site, looks amazing. Loving the new rom too, you guys are really making me enjoy my Tab more and more with each release!!! Thank you for all you do!!

Lou

P.S. Bootanim is phenominal!!!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kmrdeva:
no problems, upgraded from hermes just fine. However, I did do a few things after applying icarus-nonwipe before I rebooted my tab. I wiped cache, dalvik cache and fixed permissions.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kmrdeva:
Me too!! Happy happy..
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] danih:
Nice, 3.0 is in!

The big surprise is a bit of a letdown, but hey, I'm not complainin'!

Thanx for the great work, as always!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] oddball69:
Hmmm, i think i smell something plastic, warm meltic plastic.......

Your servers and networkequipment are glowing dark red now :D

I sence the smell of burnt plastic :rolleyes:

Think i have to wait and download later to night, get around

10kB/sec here in Sweden :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alterbridge86:
hahaha - speed is still pretty good in general going by site responsiveness - you might want to try and cancel that download and start again...there is a download manager distributing the downloads to the different mirrors, but not all our mirrors are equal :P So say 10 people on one mirror can be getting 1mb/s whereas 10 people on another mirror will only get 10k/s :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] leetut:
damn i only flashed hermes yesterday!

the n00b in me likes to wait a month or two before flashing new roms:D

im having problems undervolting hermes by the way

is that problem fixed in icarus?

using the froyo overcome rom i could oc to 1.2ghz and undervolt to -150 across the board with no probs

with hermes device shuts down at -100 after a few mins of applying it
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
If you're not ready to flash Icarus (although I highly recommend it because it packs in many other enhancements) you could grab the new Kernel and flash it on your existing [Hermes] ROM. That should fix your UV issues (as well as many other tweaks)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jykke78:
What should I try next that I would get Overcome's kernel booting? I had the same problem with Hermes, it booted only with Koxudaxi kernel and so also makes with the Icarus. I tried wipe and non-wipe versions in CWM and full flash with Heimdall.

Even the Chainfire stock rom won't boot without Koxudaxi in my Euro Tab. That's weird. I think it's only kernel what works. (Well, CM7 kernel and rom works too)

I tried to flash overcome Icarus kernel separately first to CWM and then Heimdall but it got stuck in samsung bootscreen both times. Then I flashed Koxu and it booted immeditely.

I don't get this...Koxudaxi what have you done differently!? ;)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] wakady:
@darkpal...Is it possible to get samsung default keyboard with arabic support? ?

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] dirtyfrog:
Downloading now, and intend to do a full restock and wipe. I also want to swap out my external SD and put in the 16gb card from my Desire. That card is currently partitioned to suit that device, think I have an ext3 partition and an NTFS (from memory)? If I want to completely wipe the card and have it all configured optimally for the Tab, will doing the full restock/wipe take car of this for me or should I format and repartition in Windows?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] schmolch:
After applying the stock theme patch i no longer have the percentages in the battery-icon.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DarkPal:
The arabic keyboard. I am not sure: you can try and pull it from the Arabic firmware then push it into the ROM and see how it plays (I do suspect it will FC though). There is a gingerbread keyboard in the market that seems to be faring very well. I used to have it before my entire laptop decided to die on me yesterday :(
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Magaboo:
Updated from Hermes to Icarus (no wipe) with no issues. Really like the new boot screen. Everything is running smooth and fast (just like in Hermes). Will test further, but thus far everything is running A-1, just like everything else from the AlterBridge Team.

Just one question: Is the nandroid backup issue resolved?

Many thanks guys.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] k0sh:
there is a free keyboard in the market called "Multiling keyboard" have all the language and got nice skins though . its very good to use and very smoothy give it a try
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alterbridge86:
The new kernel has identical voltage values, so it won't let you undervolt any lower. It has been that way since the beginning with GB however. People who could one time do -200mV on Froyo can only do -100mV now on GB. We don't have a real explanation as to why, but that's just the reality of it.

That's bizarre - so you can't even boot a stock rom without Koxu's kernel...hmm

If you look on your internal sdcard, i'm curious if there is a Vooodoo folder (this is created by my kernel). If so, there are init logs in it that might help me diagnose what's hanging up the boot, assuming it gets that far. Let me know if they are present.

If you go into the settings->storage menu, you can format the SD card from within there.

Well...it is the STOCK theme patch....so it looks like stock :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alterbridge86:
Nandroid backups DO work, however restores don't play nice. Hasn't been resolved in 3.2.0, I'm working on that now so it should be resolved in next release.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ziggary:
MMM there is a bug....

After flashing 004004-Overcome_v3.0.0_ICARUS_Stock_Theme_Patch.zip the tab's auto brightness goes to max at all times....
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alterbridge86:
Just flashed the stock theme patch to try this...and auto brightness is working fine. Maybe try disabling and reenabling it?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] schmolch:
But we had the modified battery-icon with the percentages in Hermes + stock theme.
