orientation 'stuck'

@ DarkPal

- sorry, I should have mentioned it;

yes, toggled it on/off multiple times

@ k0sh

- as far as I can tell, followed instructions

to the letter, twice

From thread I linked, apparently happened with flashing ROMs before.

NOT Overcome, but still.

Thank you!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] spamam1:
orientation 'stuck' -- solved!

Toggling the screen lock via the pulldown didn't work.

BUT!

Settings.. Display.. Horizontal Calibration.

As instructed, put it down on a level surface, calibrate..

works!! :)

Maybe worth adding to FAQ?

Thanks everyone!

is it the same as this one >> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=13738975&highlight=arabic#post13738975 in a cwm installable zip?

could you try to patch libwebcore.so?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
THere are many iterations floating around but they are probably the same files.

I packaged them in a flashable CWM zip to make it easier for everyone- especially that there is an outstanding issue with ADB PUSH on the new GB ROM.

libwebcore.so is more complicated but I do know that several highly talented devs are working on it so we can hope for a fix soon :)

Hi everyone.

This is for those who are obsessed with notification panel real estate and DON'T CHANGE THEIR DPI USING LCD DENSITY CHANGER. Basically what i've done was:

1. shrink the quick toggle buttons

2. remove the words under the quick toggle buttons (only for english locale, for other locales, the words will be there but they are very small but readable. the reason for english only? because of some .xml scripting issues. long story. so for those who use are using other locales, you'll still see the words and they are very small but readable)

3. shrink the "carrier bar" smaller

all these were done to maximize notification panel screen estate and also to make the notification panel look nicer IMO. moreover, you don't need such big toggle buttons and carrier text right? you can take a look at the screenshot for comparison and yes i sms-ed myself to test out the notifcations lol.

i hope you guys like this mod!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheReaperUK:
I seem to have a big problem.

I followed the guide and all went well, but now when my screen goes into standby or i press power to put it standby my tab will not turn on, i have to hold the power button down untill it reboots.

Am i the only one with this problem and if not is there a fix?

P.S. Have just found out that if i have my usb cable plug in to tab and computer i can wake the tab ok while its in usb storage mode (copy files to pc), now i'm wonder if its the lock screen as usb storage mode bypasses lock screen?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] V6-Maniac:
Although the small buttons look very nice but with text in non english locales it looks horrible to me.

Maybe on a higher DPI it looks great but on 190DPI as i've set at the moment it doen't look nice with the text beneath the small buttons.

I know this is just a matter of taste but if i want small buttons i only want it without text.

I don't know if other people like it with the text but as imho i think this mod shut be applied separately instead of being stock in overcome.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
Thanks kay_kiat88

Nice work!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] gwbard:
Did you by any chance restore SetCPU with the rest of your apps? It can cause that exact symptom...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kay_kiat88:
Hmm okay. Noted. I don't change my DPI (cos it causes some apps to display incorrectly) so I didn't take into account those who change their dpi. I will remove the words for other locales tomorrow and see if it works.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheReaperUK:
Yes i did and have just found out that was the problem, was just about to reinstall app only and try that.

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] V6-Maniac:
Thx...

That would be great.

BTW: which apps gives you troubles on a lower DPI.

My current setting is 190DPI and have not found any apps which are displayed incorrectly.

Okay just one and it's the calculator.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kay_kiat88:
Previously on froyo.. apps like calculator, email, camera and phone dialer doesn't scale correctly.. and I use these apps frequently so that's why I don't change my dpi.. but now on gingerbread I haven't tried.. I shall try now..
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] k0sh:
the google map was really really indeed a good step :) just OMGOSH !!!!!!!!!!

thanks :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kojoebc:
i am running at 182dpi and stock camera, stockbrowser and some other displaying issues.. Can be seen here http://kojoe86.wordpress.com/2011/03/06/lcd-density-was-ist-das/its my german blog. The new draftmemo has a displaying issue too.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kay_kiat88:
Just checked. Yep what kojoebc said is right. Still doesn't scale properly.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] V6-Maniac:
Luckily i can read German but think some other people over here don't understand a word of it.

Okay back to the DPI, you set yours at 182DPi which is way to low.

It is know all apps also from the market will work from 190DPI below that point you can get issues.

Issue accessing external sd card in recovery

I followed the guide and installed v2.0.0 Beta 1 without any issues. As soon as I noticed that Beta 2 was available, I downloaded the upgrade and attempted to flash, but when I selected "choose zip from sd card", the files on my sd card do not appear. I then see external sd card, and I continue to select it but it brings me back to the same prompts without the ability to choose the update. Then I decided to go back to the stock (GB stock safe) and try to install the v2.0.0 Beta 2 full version. Again, I went through all of the steps, but when I selected "choose zip from sd card", I have the same issue. Now I am stuck on the rooted GB stock safe rom. Did not have any problems with v2.0.0 that I noticed.

Any suggestions on what might be causing this problem.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Pharaohnough:
You need to copy the files to your Internal Storage not external SD

When you connect USB you get 2 drives, one is your SD card and the other is Internal Storage. You need to put them on Internal Storage because that's the only one which this version of CWM will see
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] D.O.C:

I installed this yesterday and it works great. The only problem I have is ADW Launcher Ex is extremely slow when I move through my home pages. I've tried resetting the app, uninstalling then reinstalling it, but none of that has worked.

Thanks for any suggestions.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] julian.kueh:
Where did you download the folder to? Directly to your Tab or tranferred from your PC? If directly to your Tab, then you need to locate the Download folder on your SD card then copy that onto the root folder of the SD card. I don't think it matters whether it is on the root folder of the internal or external SD cards.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] dxwilliams40:
Thanks

Thanks for the advice. It worked flawlessly.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
Yup, as ever, GrammarFreak is correct. ;-)

Forgot that the AngryGPS addon changes the thing visually a bit, from the old settings. Will tweak the guides later today!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
LOL! Thanks Kay_Kiat! You the man! :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
For now it matters.... The current CWM is not the same as the modified CWM found in the Overcome 1.4.x/1.6.x. All CWM zip files should be placed in the root of the INTERNAL SD.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] julian.kueh:
Thanks for the clarification, TPB.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cx5:
Hi kay kiat

Thanks for apk. Wonderful. Need a bit of help here. Feel really stupid asking this now. After I download and click install, I get "application not installed".

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] The Physician:
And when did I say I rooted it on Gingerbread?

Oh right. Never.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
LOL... you'll have to push it into the system/app folder via ADB or use an app like Root Explorer. You might want to back-up the existing file before replacing it. ;-)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
Ok. Ok... maybe The Physician wasn't very clear, but he didn't say he rooted it on Gingerbread. Let's move on. For now, the existing tools such as z4root and superoneclick doesn't work on the Gingerbread ROMs as it stands now. That's why we're using the superb CF-Root kernel by ChainFire, which provides root access.

noob question re: titanium

noob question

if I use titanium to backup all apps and settings to an SD card (currently on froyo Overcome 1.45)

after flashing Gingerbread Overcome, can I just reinstall titanium, point it to the backup and restore my apps?

because I'm going from froyo to gingerbread (I'm a noob at this stuff) not sure if thats the right thing to do, thanks

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] sahildeswal:
Yes, after reinstalling gingerbread overcome, head over to the market and download Titanium Backup. Ensure that you put the backup in the right titanium folder and reboot the device once. You can then restore your apps.

Cheers!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DistortedWisdom:
I have a strange bug.

no matter what i do i just can gain root access (although SU app is there in the drawer)

I am on GT-P1000 international version (to clear that out)

Here is how i flashed Overcome 2.0 beta2:-

1- Downloaded Stock P1000XXJQ1

2- DeOdexed It using xUltimate script

3- Added flashed CF's Kernel

4- Changed libandroid_runtime.so, framework.jar for Arabic support using MadMak's Script

5- Pushed the files mentioned above (deodexed apps, deodexed frames and arabized framework.jar, libandroid_runtime.so using adb commands)

Then after that i realized that this was out, and downloaded Overcome 2.0 and flashed it from recovery.

everything works amazingly except for Root.

I tried flashing CF's Kernel again using Odin3 but no luck.

(Note: root worked fine before i flashed Overcome)

any ideas what might have gone wrong?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] wintermute000:
cheers mate, I assume I can also change titanium config to point at external SD instead of having to move it back to internal?

Is anyone having trouble getting Flash to work in the browser?

I have flash 10.2 installed but no flash is working..

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
This sometimes will happen. Try this: While Odin is on, just disconnect your Tab from the PC and reconnect it again. It should highlight the yellow Com port notification in Odin.

This is provided you've got all the proper drivers in place, yeah?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
Lol... now that's quite a bit of customization of the stock. :-) I seriously wouldn't know where to start... To diagnose why, would require the steps and same files you've used, etc... for me at least.

Anyway, to save a lot of grief, just back-up you data (and user apps, if you want to) grab the files from the installation guide, and start over again? :-)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] wintermute000:
ok thanks

odd as I have currently manually changed the titanium backup location to external SD, but no fuss I'll just have to wait those extra valuable 5 minutes to copy the data across lol.

Can't wait for this to come out of beta (and thanks again to brave bug hunters oops I mean early adopters lol)!

Hi Pitbull

Thank you for all the great guides and help.

Have you edited the guide for angry GPS yet?

When I enter the code *# etc for LBS TEST mode, i just get to the GPS settings with no extended settings menu (for LBS entries ) like in your tips and tweaks .pdf

I read back thru this thread and tried to 'think' like Grammar Freak said, but I just cant find the LBS settings anywhere in beta 2.

Alterbridge. Again sir you have delivered the goods - THANKS

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DistortedWisdom:
heh, I tried getting help to avoid doing this :P but thanks i Guess it would be easier if i just download the files from the guide like you said.

LBSfix - GPS Settings How-to

Hi @kashortiexda.

I've not actually had the time to edit the guides yet. Anyway, guys, for the moment, here's how to do it...

1) Make sure your GPS is on.

2) Fire up your phone app and enter this dialer code: *#*#3214789650#*#* and you should get this:

(If you don't get this... clear the data from AngryGPS (Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications. Thanks kashortiexda!)

3)Click on "Settings" and you should get this:

4) Now click on "General Settings" and match the following settings below:

5) Hit the back button, and now click on the "SUPL Settings" and match the following settings:

6) Now hit the back button twice, and you should be in the main AngryGPS page (picture under Item 2)... Now click on the "Delete GPS Data" button.

That's it!

You can use the "TTFF Test" (TTFF = Time To First Fix!) and "Tracking Test" to test your GPS too. I also use GPS Status app from the market to test as well.

Cheers.

EDIT: OOPS! Sorry for the sideway pix... will fix it soon! Done!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kashortiexda:
Pitbull

THANKS - worked perfectly. . . . BUT

Before I could do that, I had to CLEAR DATA on ANGRY GPS. ( otherwise when I entered the *#*#3214789650#*#* into dialler, it just kept taking me to the normal Settings,Location page )

I did this with Titanium Backup Pro, but I am confident it can also be done by SETTINGS, APPLICATIONS,MANAGE,ALL,ANGRY GPS,CLEAR DATA.

I state this just in case anyone else has the same issues that I had. If anyone has the same probs, they should state such on this forum. If it is common, perhaps add the above as a note in your guide ( to save all the noob questions like mine before! )

And thanks for the swift response - i was wondering why the same GPS tweaks as 1.4x and 1.6x wasn't in the 2.x guide. Thought it had something to do with GB.

THANKS
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
Thanks... I'll make a note of that....but usually, it's not necessary to Clear data... just make sure GPS is on. But I'll make a note of that as a just in case thing. Yeah, Samsung changed it up a bit from the Froyo base setup. Thought most people could find they're way around. Guess that showed me to never assume! ;-)

epic rom!!!

ive been on 3+ different roms. most recent being the cm7 port (2.3.4)...obviously any port will have its bugs, but even ignoring the upside down lock screen and orientation issues and focusing on general smoothness, a few months ago it was good (from a newb's perspective anyways) so ive left it be and updated a week or 2 ago.

today i flashed overcome to get netflix working. i couldnt believe how smooth, clean, fast and responsive this rom is. i can only remember the older 1.X version from a few months ago and i know it was great back then but it came down to personal pref when i had cm7 up against it.

as of now, there is no competition with any other ive tried..and i would say its smoother than any rom ive had on my phones as well, overcome is the best rom ive had on my tablet and im here to stay!

thank you for all the hard work, this really is epic.

i just wish it was for my g2 too.

Yes, very snappy, although the stock GB seemed snappy too.

One problem, I can't download AGPS (XTRA and LTO) data using "GPS Aids", has anyone gotten it to work?

Another thing, WiFi AdHoc is not working out of the box, anyone found a fix for that? I'll try to replace the wpa_supplicant but I'm not sure there is a GB version.
