Happy to help

If you have the time and inclination, you can run a little systematic test after you perform you clean re-flash. After each of your modifications do a simple

adb shell
su

and try to see where it fails to get root / superuser access (i.e. after which mod) and please let us know!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Yom:
It was my understanding that su was broken over ADB due to the stock kernel. Every time I tried it I got a Segmentation fault, but that might have been due to my messing with the zip.

I will heed your advice, with gratitude an hope that it was my mods to the ZIP that caused the issues, and not a hardware issue with my Precious :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mattman83:
Grab terminal emulator and see if it works direct from the phone perhaps.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] RockHead:
I had held off flashing any custom roms on my Tab, even though I'm a flash addict on my Vibrant, but upgrading to Gingerbread was just too compelling. Piece of cake.

Reading through this thread, I've learned a few nifty tricks, like fixing Swype. Gonna swap the sim from my phone, and see if I really do have TMO voice, which would be a bonus. :)

Really, really nice! Loving it. Thank you!

Sent from my Tab or phone => brevity & Swypos
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Yom:
Well, I'll be damned, a "stock" Beta2 ROM flash and a restore of my nandroid /data partition did the trick!

I just had to clear the SU app's data and other apps now can request Root access successfully.

Thank you guys both, you kick ass.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mattman83:
Glad to hear it's sorted. Just out of curiosity, what process did you go through to get B2 previously?

M.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Nemesis_00:
Another happy camper here. Thanks for the effort.

Just running for a couple of hours, but it seems better than ever.

The only culprit so far is that probably some of the fonts are missing compared to Froyo. With the default mail client synced to exchange, emails with hebrew characters show up as boxes instead of the actual letters.

Any quick link on updating fonts?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Yom:
I unzipped the ROM and added Titanium Backup, its key, MIUI Camera and lgCamera APKs to the /system/apk folder. I also replaced the boot animation with a custom one, and I modded build.prop for 167 LCD density.

I now think this is an issue with either of the camera APKs I put there, likely the lgCamera. I added those as the stock camera crashes at densities lower than 182.

Thank you very much for your help!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheATHEiST:
Are you or anybody else getting FC's when trying to use Titaniums batch feature?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mattman83:
I'm not getting FC's, but myself and a couple of people have had it seem to stop restoring stuff when doing batch restore. Reboot + batch restore a 2nd time fixed it for me.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheATHEiST:
Tried rebooting, re-installing, re-flashing rom. Still get the FC as soon as I enter batch mode :(
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Yom:
Nope, no FCs or errors in TB on this tab... but I did see that very same behavior on a crappy Viewsonic GTablet I got for my mother-in-law. Try updating to the latest TB now available in the Market, and clear its data before running it again.

Also, run a chkdsk against your SD cards (both internal and ext), and rename your TB directory, to see if it is one of your backups causing the FC.

I would like to thank you for a unique and supper fast (OC v2.0 Beta 2). Well done to the Team involved producing it. Very happy and looking forward to see many more of your magnificent pice of Art.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
Glad to hear you're sorted.

By the way some ADB functions are broken due to the stock kernel (like ADB Push and ADB Install) but you can get pretty much anything done if you use su commands instead to open up the file system to R/W mode following this example:

adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
chmod 777 /system/app (or wherever it is you want access to)
exit
exit
adb push <local file> <device location>
chmod 755 /system/app (or you opened up in line 2 to restore permissions)

[Need Help] I cannot browse some websites with .com as domain

I cannot browse some websites with .com as domain (it says cannot find the site). If those sites have a co.uk domain them I can open but not the full content (For example if I try open a site, say aabc.com it wont work for me, instead If i try aabc.co.uk then it will ope!). It happened to me in OC 1.6.4 as well. I didnt find this problem with any other ROM (like chainfire's)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
Does this happen using WiFi or Mobile Data or both?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] harsha_aithal:
Mobile data.. I haven't tried using WiFi.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
Can you try WiFi and report back your result?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mattman83:
Has anyone found a decent browser replacement? Stock browser is *fast* being hardware accelerated at last, however the UI is not so good. Dolphin, Opera etc are much slower in comparison because it's all loaded on the CPU not shared with the GPU.

On my Desire I use the stock AOSP browser and it works really well and has a decent interface to boot, but have had troubles getting it to install on the Tab (I assume there's some device specific config in there).

I'm quite happy pulling roms apart to get the browsers out, doesn't have to just be an "on the market" browser :)

M.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] wintermute000:
I used to use Miren, its faster than dolphin (IMO) and has enough features to make it worth it. I like its tab layout, and the button on right bottom corner to quickly pop the titlebar/tabs into view, swipe left or right edge to move back or forwards, on the fly UA adjustment, on the fly lock orientation.

But yeah now the stock browser is SO much faster no amount of features can compensate IMO
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
Stock browser for me.

It's a ton better than Froyo: very efficient and gets the job done very nicely
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] dingoo12:
AGREED

One question tho .. On my stock browser now the left arrow (traditionally back) does not work for me anymore to go back one link- I have to use the literal back key (ie outside of the browser).

Any help appreciated

Battery life report:

I tinkered with it yesterday, installing apps, playing some, browsing etc. Left battery at 77% when I went to sleep. 5 hours later the battery is at 45%.

System shows GPS Status as the hog, although I dont know why, I didnt leave it on. Anyway, I dropped it to see what happens.

Same here.

This just started this morning for me, and when I first noticed it I rebooted so that I was sure GPS Status was shut down entirely (not that I recall using it anyway). However, after reading the above post I have noticed that it is still using 53% battery. I will try the usual clearing cache, data, etc., and see if that helps. :confused:

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DarkPal:
Is it me or does TB breaks with every new version? My previous TB at 3.8 is working fine weird.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
It could be you :D

But seriously, I haven't had any issues with Titanium Backup... not in Batch mode or otherwise... I tried this morning before updating to the latest version and after I updated...

Addons

Galaxy S developer here. You can add the nexus s 2.3.4 driver to get rid abit better performance and texture stretching problem, you can find the binaries in the i9000 forum. Also you can integrate fugutweaks 2.3.4 aosp for app_server. Not sure if the same wifi module is used in the tab, but there is a 2.3.4 wifi driver available that could fix battery drain issues.

Just suggestions for your next release. Just got a tab so still tinkering around what can be ported over, still haven't looked at the spec sheet yet.

By the way when was 2.3.3 released, still haven't seen any source drops, want to port over some things from i9000 to get it to run alittle more smoother.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] sahildeswal:
Honestly speaking,I am sure nobody would mind waiting for a quality ROM update Alter. Sure security related updates should be done asap, but what you've got in mind my friend is enhancing Gingerbread...taking it beyond the usual bread n butter :) Kudos on Overcome, am a fan since Froyo...appreciate the good work!

Cheers!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] danih:
Wow, that would be nice, welcome :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] sahildeswal:
Just an observation guys...I noticed that as soon as I popped in a sim card to make the usual calls and msgs, the Tab started consuming some serious juice...the battery level went from 98% to 87% in about 20 mins and thats with 8-10 messages and usually with the screen turned off. I had recharged the Tab, before that wiped the battery stats. Also on airplane mode, the battery consumption was normal. I double checked no open background apps or battery consuming apps for that matter. The data packet mode was also turned off. Strange, any ideas?

Cheers!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ravness:
Can't wait for your additions, you've made the Tab worth more than it cost for me.

What modem are you using?

Don't know from where your are or what Tab (Say Euro Tab) you are using.

If your modem is still the JPZ Modem which comes with the latest Gingerbread 2.3.3.

You can flash a new modem and choose one of your desire on the openings post.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DarkPal:
It isnt there :(
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
Just install the modem then. For now, use the modem.in in the JPZ Modem folder.

EDIT: Ooops...sorry, didn't realise you were on Telstra... then flash the JK3 Modem.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] julian.kueh:
I'm using a Telstra Australian Tab P1000T. When I first installed Overcome 1.6.4, I kept the stock Telstra modem. Would Odin have wiped the modem as well? That being the case, I'll flash the JK3 modem from the guide. Another thing, can I flash the modem on it's own without having to restock my Tab?

Well, I don't... I was planning to use Chainfire's, or failing that, just delete the boot.bin file from the safe tar. Would that work, do you think?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DarkPal:
Nope it wont. We tried. Bootloaders are needed for GB to boot.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
If you're sure they don't need reflashing then ye, there's no point in risking it. Just be sure to take both out. And I repartitioned without bootloaders before, worked fine
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] MarlowXim:
Yeah its usually on Tuesday they drop code maybe next week, hoping to mess with it seeing what's can be easily ported or not.

Also is the initramfs is it easy to port from i9000 or is a complete rewrite necessary. I noticed chainfire chainfire did not release another Ext4 conversion. I'm assuming since the hardware is similar because adding tiny_preempt_rcu really is a great benefit to smoothness and interactivity. Things is cannot have efs as rfs.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] grukko:
I'm beginning to think the reason the source hasn't been provided yet is because they haven't released the 'final' version of 2.3.3 for the tab. The Italian rom may have been released prematurely with some bugs. See this article from boy genius:

http://www.bgr.com/2011/05/17/samsu...ingerbread-to-galaxy-s-galaxy-tab-this-month/

We may see the source once the official 2.3.3 has been rolled out.

Loving the Gingerbread ROM!!

But having a strange radio issue. I am using an ATT Tab with Overcome v2.0 Beta 2 and the JK3 modem. 3G data works great until I try to access the Google Android Market. As soon as I do it drops the 3G connection and wont come back until I reboot it. If I dont go to the market or only go to the market on WiFi it works just fine. I also verified that the same behavior happens with the JPZ modem..

My theory is somehow ATT is blocking Gingerbread Tabs from going to the market using their SIM card. Therefore I think maybe I need to edit my build.prop to spoof them. Can anyone recommend which values should be changed? Can anyone think of anything else that could cause this? Can anyone reproduce this issue on their ATT tab?

TIA
