Thanks

Yes Luigi - I've checked again and it is not doing it. However, whatever I did at the time certainly made the cpu stay at 800, and the improvement in battery time shows me at least that for several days that is what was happening.

My battery use is now back to what I expect, but was very bad for just that time. You have all convinced me it was a glitch, but if anyone else notices a very severe drop in battery life I would certainly recommend that they play around with deleting the voltage boot settings and a change of cpu frequency with a couple of reboots in between. :cool:

Thanks very much.

Some of my apps won't scale properly. I've tried the Spareparts trick but doesn't seem to work.

Also, tried installing fonts using fontomizer. It changed some of the apps fonts but not the system fonts. Icons on desktop and in system settings page are still in default font. Tried rebooting after changing font settings but that didn't work either. Help!

Seriously? thats like the complete opposite of what everyone else is getting... stock browser on froyo is quite probably the worst android browser i've ever tried. On GB it's still not got the best interfact, but man it's smooth now... like smoother than dolphin HD which i had been running.

There's still improvement to come when we get the kernel source and get it on ext4... shouldn't take too long :) If you're still going to go back to 1.6.4 i'd take a nandroid of 2.0 at least so it doesn't take long to move back when the kernel is out.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] grukko:
Something must be wrong with your install. There is no way the froyo browser even at 1.4ghz comes anywhere near the smoothness and speed of the gb browser. I just don't get it.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Gpsrisk:
THanks and Yes it works now on Beta 2. :p
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] peacekeeper05:
Yeah. The gb browser is as smooth as an ipad' browser. I've had lots of androids phones is this is by far the best browser. No lag whatever. I don't know why he felt the froyo version is better

Hi alterbridge86 :) big big super thank you !!!! great rom.

Hi thepitbull :) big big thanks for guide, gives a lot more confidence, great PDF.

Originally on rainbowng's rom compilation "Sky05" 2.2, thought since GB is so late, mind as well jump straight to HC in future, resist this. But seeing so many good feedback from yellow XDAians :) can't help but installed Overcome2. Really fast & smooth indeed. Matching Foryo OC 1.4Ghz

Anyway, some results for everyone's interest, consider lightweight beta testing. Not alterbridge86's problem. Just information sharing.

Apk = Data Switch by TomatoX does not do anything :(

Apk = Mobile Data Switch by AISPL does not work "error enable/disable network"

Apk = Original MUSIC lost all playlist ??? previous 2.2 could restore from Titanium well

Battery = 82% -> go sleep 6.5 hours -> wake -> still 82% BRAVO :) same as Sky05+richardtripV16kernel

GPS = does not FIX in 30 seconds for GPS Status, Rmaps, Papago5xHK respectively, location is MTR on the move with ample sky+sunlight Hong Kong between Kowloon-WAN to Kwun Tong. Probably because haven't install GPSAID, FASTERFIX etc ???

Apk = Original EMAIL -> need to go into something to reclick ACTIVATION to Exchange Server, no problem.

Titanium = 1st 60 apps need manual clicking install+done, the rest of the 100 fully automatically, total 179 apks skipping heavy-duty ADOBE FLASH and a bit of old stuffs, took total less than 5 mins, battery use 4%.

Battery icon = shows LIGHTING without X with notebook's USB, inside advance shows "discharge" as we all expect. The X should be shown in my opinion, but this is not critical, may be no one cares, then nevermind :)

No Chinese, will add later.

Quodrant Score 930 :( - but actual testing is much faster from section to section, i.e. CPU to MEM to SD to graphics etc, no long wait, especially the 4 of 4 read/write used to get stuck at 3 and 4 and takes forever, now is just fast fast fast.

Lastly, thanks alterbridge86.​
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] docangle:
Vulkano Player (Latest Version 1.6.0.84) is not working with Overcome Beta 2(or 1), I suspect it has to do with the RTSP, I am wondering if it is a tweak in CF-Root.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] peacekeeper05:
why is the bouncy overscroll effect not present and got replaced by the glow effect. i kinda like the bouncy one more.

going back to beta 1 just because of that. haha
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] prinzhernan:
If you take time to read the guide, it says after you flash the upgrade, it's good practice to wipe cache and Dalvik cache.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] bdf:
Yeah, I have tried it all, I get nothing, no connections, nothing on the sc,reen, just hosed.

Is this deadboot? What is this jtag pinout stuff I see around?

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jeremysv:
Good practice, agreed, but alterbridge, being so thorough, surely puts this intelligence in the install script..?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] christucker97:
Alter, Pitbull, Lovin this rom bro. ITS NICE. BTW everything's workin good here. Thanks again. I currently do not get reboot, recovery etc. in power.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] moonzbabysh:
how long should the first boot take?? cuz mine has been sitting at the tmobile bootup screen for like over half an hour???

followed the tutorial , dunno if maybe i missed something???
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Magaboo:
Great stuff!

Woohoo, this is by far the smoothest, fastest and flawless FW/Kernel that I have ever had on my tab!

Many thanks to Alterbridge, Pittbull and all those involved bringing us this software. Looking forward to other updates.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] rrevenge:
um... what happened here?

It just keeps turning on and off.

I used ROM manager and wiped everything.

still i don;t understand what's going on
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] moonzbabysh:
same exact thing is going on with mine. ugh i cant catch a break
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] btyork:
Rule number one... Rom manager is not an ideal way to do anything. Its generic, everything here is custom built.

Secondly, are you able to enter recovery abd/or download mode?

Sent from my "better than an iPad" tab.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] rrevenge:
yeah I'm in download mode as we speak
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] zenkinz:
probably the first time I hear this so I'll be curious on your exact findings that lead to the above conclusion.

HAving used Froyo and Gingerbread in my Tab AND my Desire HD. I can safely say that an optimised Froyo (with overclock and whatever hacks to the kernel) can never out-perform a stock (no-overclock) Gingerbread.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tangcla:
So please - what are safe / realistic undervoltage ranges that the Tab can handle? Seems to be undervoltable by quite a lot!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Bulut.O:
There is no FIX Number for that since every Tab handels it different...

You have to try and work your way up to see how much your tab can handle...!!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] sahildeswal:
He's right. Every piece of silicon is different, and thus handles undervolting differently. Play around with the settings. Spike up the UV in increments on 25. Check for stability, the moment the tab reboots, it means it can't handle that much. Currently I am running at max 800 mhz and min 100mhz with -150 across the board. Stable as a rock. Battery life is 2 days of medium to heavy usage.

Cheers!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] miesfu:
same setting

stable and battery saving
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] miesfu:
Just to confirm, have you wipe your Battery Sat. after ROM flash?

I did that and battery usage is better
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] miesfu:
At 800M

you will see it still works well

or you can try -100MV for better performance. I've not tried if I can get smoothly 720P decoding yet, will do it soon
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DubZyy:
i dont know if the issue is public... but the positioning on google maps/latitude dont works with w-lan (only gsm and gps).
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] luigi_sa:
Hi DubZyy, works fine for me, just not very accurate. 3G/E etc does make it locate better...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] njackson:
Yes. I always do a wipe sometime after a new ROM flash. In fact, the battery was going very nicely prior to the "glitch", and is now back to being good after I did the voltage boot wipe / reboot / reset / reboot.

Thanks for thye suggestion though ;)

Jacko
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DubZyy:
w-lan is here in germany by most isp more accurate than gsm. sometimes he detects my wlan position for 2-3 seconds (and the accuracy is like ~10m) and then the positioning jumps to gsm and the accuracy is like 1500m
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] luigi_sa:
Ouch, that IS quite a difference...

its the reverse for me in South Africa, my GSM is better than wireless, and GPS unsurpassed for accuracy... but then again, SA is seriously behind on the tech side. e.g. Our DSL lines here cost ZAR R700 (+/-US$100) a month for a 512KB Shaped & Uncapped line... so we do tend to rely on our free satelites alot more than wifi or GSM...

just a thought as a test, try turning off the GSM connection and test the accuracy of maps?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DarkPal:
To those of you who are asking about MY UV/OC settings. Brace yourselves! I run my tab at default settings :eek: Yes that's right no UV/OC. I tend to do those for testing purposes to make sure things are working. Overcome is awesome as it is out of the box.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] luigi_sa:
@DPal, run times between charges? apps used, and general time frames? because if its anything close to what i get then ill be back to stock hermes, in a flash (pun not intended... :P :D)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DarkPal:
Heavy Usage including browsing (I sadly use the battery hungry skyfire browser) watching one or 2 HD movies (an hour an half or 2 hours movies). Chatting on gtalk running some youtube videos. Run time ranges between 7.5 to 10 hours.

Moderate Use goes into around 18-20 hours. Light use goes around 1 to 2 days.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] luigi_sa:
And the final answer is... (drum roll , for me at least :)) uninstalling VC, resetting battery voltage settings and, ".. have at it.." the "stock" way :)

ill let you all know by monday the results, need to do a full battery charge (need my baby for now), so can only do it on the weekends.

thanks @DPal
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] luigi_sa:
on a slight tangent, anyone know about Google maps v5.6 awaiting updates for us all? currently ignoring it since the 5.5 patch doesnt work on it...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ayong chia:
@DarkPal What is the default setting for the UV/OC in GTab? I am going to set back to the default setting then uninstall the Voltage Control...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] luigi_sa:
uninstall Voltage control, go into CWM, and i stand corrected here, but i THINK its under Advanced theres an option to reset voltage settings. once done, you'll be reset back to original hermes settings.

edit:- confirmed, in recovery go to ADVANCED, select "Reset Voltage Settings", and confirm. then reboot. but i'm sorta gueessing about this, you should probably uninstall VControl before you reset that voltage settings, cut out any chances of the app making any "funnies" after the settings reset
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DarkPal:
Haha I am sorry about that. I already modded Google Maps 5.6 and created the flashable zip. Forgot to get it upped. Should be upped shortly. My bad :D

EDIT: DONE :D

if you do not save as boot....just reboot your p1000, it will go back to stock setting

if you did save as boot, delete it, then reboot

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DarkPal:
Put your tab into sleep. If something happens the soft key lights will blink ;)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] dx.varun:
they never blink... tried much .... Handcent sms --> blink led ... nothing happens

k9 mail --> blink led ... no luck lool :eek::eek:
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DarkPal:
Download The BLN app from the market and set it up
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] dx.varun:
now tried with this app also... no luck...

even when i try to send a test notification it doesnt even blink the backlights and even no other apps are blinking the BL and same for the missed calls
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
BLN Control comes in two versions.

1. The free version has the basic functionality which will set the softkeys to act as LED notifications by lighting up and staying lit (this functionality exists natively in Overcome Hermes)

2. The pro version lets you set more functionality including blinking and various parameters like blinking frequency, etc

Hi,

I came from Roto v2 froyo rom to Hermes via the stock safe v3 and everything works fine exactly as it should be, except for power drain.

I am dropping 4% in 30m just reading posts in xda app.

The About Device battery use info shows Android System using 90%.

I am using Launcher Pro and 200dpi.

Flight mode on, then set wifi on, with strong signal.

I did restore user apps and data from Froyo.

Will any of that affect my power drain?

What should be done to troubleshot this. Should I restock and reapply Hermes only?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ipit:
use your tab for a couple of weeks to get an accurate picture of how long it will last. looking at minor spikes is not a good way to determine overall battery life. That's why I try to stay away from numbered battery meters. They seem to draw people's attention to it all the time.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] luigi_sa:
I had quite a drain on my battery, even in gold, and worked out that a couple of my widgets were the issue... namely mixzing, 3G watchdog. But you do need to do at least 2 full recharges (phone off plugged in to the wall and one battery stat reset in CWM). BUT, I DO agree that a c couple of days isn't enough time to see true battery life when you change roms.

I will try a few more full cycle to get better picture. But is it normal if the Android System takes up 90%?

yes that's normal. It may change depending on how you use your tab. (eg run gps for a bit and you'll see that will take over etc)

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DarkPal:
hehe Question: Why did you update to stock ROM?! Well best course of action is going through the whole shebang for optimal results i.e follow the installation guide. Or Since theoretically you are restocked flash the overcome kernel to get CwM and voodoo then flash the ROM via CwM

Yeah, why....why... did I go do that!!:( Anyways not goin to delay my weekend project that is to do what u adviced. Thx for da speedy reply :)

Is my tab dead?

I did a restore CWM from a backup and after that the Tab now gets stuck on the Samsung Splash Screen and nothing happens. It just gets unusually very warm and thats it.

And now if I try to enter Recovery (Volume Up + Power) it doesnt go either... I never get CWM screen/Menu anymore, just the same initial Samsung Splash Screen.

Also if I try to charge it, I get a static empty battery icon but doesnt get charged. And if I try to power it up when being charged the screen goes momentarily black but returns to the static battery, does not boot up.

Any clues what has happened? How do I get out of this?

Thanks in advance for the input!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alterbridge86:
It's fixed now - sorry :P

Your tab is not dead. It seems the recovery has an issue restoring the kernel succesfully. What happened right now is you have a broken kernel. If you flash the kernel through download mode you should be ok. I only say should because we don't know what state the rest of your partitions are in. if they are intact, it will simply boot. If not, you just have to do the whole restock shebang and that will fix you up for sure.

---------------

Quick update on next release:

It is coming along well. The testing is taking a bit longer this time due to the "surprise" feature. Unfortunately it doesn't look like it will make an appearance this week as I had initially hoped, but early next week should definitely be a go. :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] VeEuzUKY:
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm... somehting is seriosuely not right... as NOTHING SEEMS TO WORK NO MATTER WHAT, I resorted to go back to zero way way waaaaaaaaaay before. I installed good old Roto JMI Pre-Rooted Firmware v2, that went OK but on the next step of installing Overcome Kernel 1.0 & performing EXT4 Conversion after that process (which goes normally) I go back to a stuck Samsung Splash Screen and nothing happens after that, including, impossible again to get into Recovery by pressing Volume Up + Power.

What the heck?????????

I flashed your ROM over CWM but every time the TAB restarts it goes to the CWM again and doesn't boot android.
