I can pretty much guarantee y'all it's not a "problem" with the hardware.

I've the 10.1 4G model with a Samsung 52" LCD TV and experience the exact same issue (picture is fine, but jumps or flickers approx every 5-10 seconds).

How can a forum newbie make such a bold statement? Through powers of observation (taa daa!). :) Let me be more specific. I noticed that the EXACT same behaviour ocurrs when I use my PS3. That said, if I uncheck the deep color option on the PS3, life is good - PS3 output works perfectly. sOooOOO that said the issue is likely that the adapter is pumping out deep color that, unfortunately, is not compatible with most sets. Now, if we only tweak that setting....

Im runnign pershoot kernal most recent and galaxy task rom 14 and still getting the screen flicker if anyone out there can help you will make my wife a happy woman as she wants to watch movies from the Tab to our tv
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] nbbeerguy:
I contacted Samsung support and they would not talk to me unless I purchase a Samsung HDMI cable so could it be that they have made it so you can only use their cable ?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] egyfreaker:
i got my galaxy tab 10.1 (p7500), the problem was to connect it to the Screen.

i managed to get the Original Samsung HDMI Adapter the problem is when i connect the tablet to the screen it appears to have noise and flicks with no voice too.

the picture is too bad.

and is there is anyway to convert the HDMI to VGA or RCA output?

Update:

Preshot Kernel is not working too

HDTV adapter problem

Is your fix suitable for GT 10.1v (7100)? Or only for other 10.1 devices(7500, 7510)? Thank you.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] CazeW:
It's not my fix, it was all thanks to pershoot. :)

If you're running HC 3.2 on your 10.1v, you can try this kernel. Be sure to download the correct zip. The installation instructions are at the bottom.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] ing007:
Thank you for your answer, I appreciate it.

I am very new to this, I managed to unlock, root and install clockworkmod on my 10.1v(after a coupe of days of study), but I don't know exactly how to install the kernel. Should I install only the kernel files or flash the appropriate zip file for my tab too? Tnx.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] CazeW:
You download the correct zip from the link, move it over to your tab and install it from cwm recovery. Do not extract it, keep it as a zip file.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] ing007:
Done that, all went fine, but after reboot when I check in system properties is still the stock kernel!?

Another thing, maybe related to this, I have troubles rebooting in recovery for the CWM(from rom manager or others), it shows only a robot with a yellow triangle and an exclamation mark within.

After several attempts CWM finally loads, I am able to flash the zip, every thing goes ok, but in the end I still have the stock 2.6.36.3 kernel. Tnx.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] CazeW:
The kernel version should be 2.6.36.4. The yellow triangle means you've went to download mode. Don't use Rom Manager to go into recovery, either use the terminal command "reboot recovery" or shutdown the tab and hold volume down (or up, I always forget which one) when putting it on again and from the two icons select the left icon with volume down. Unless it's different in 10.1v but that's how it works on the regular version.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] ing007:
I used the terminal command and it does the same thing as before. It's not the download mode where it enters, that's too a yellow triangle but with a working android within, in my case it looks different, I'll attach a picture. So I can't enter CWM only random. Using hardware buttons (shutdown + volume down) doesn't work either, it only brings me to the choosing screen between fastboot and download mode, with no CWM.

The screen where it brings me when I reboot recovery is in the attachment.

Update:

Tried several times, no new kernel, still the stock 2.6.36.3. For sure, the CWM is not installed as it should, the only way I can enter in CWM is by FLASHING it from Rom Manager EACH TIME I want to go in. Using any other reboot recovery method (terminal, buttons combination, or other apps) it brings me to the screen from the attachment. So I guess the new kernel is not installed because a faulty CWM.

Another thing, if I install CWM from fastboot it only works from temporary root, when I try to do permanent root it's freezes at "Flashing MBR to device#" then nothing.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] CazeW:
Didn't know it used fastboot instead of normal recovery. Unfortunately I have no idea how to flash cwm or a kernel with fastboot so I won't be any help there. I recommend you check the 10.1v forum for information.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] pershoot:
are you trying to install the kernel against your stock 3.0.1 build? that wont work.

i am also unsure if the kernel will install on ota 3.2 for 10.1v. if you are not on 3.2, upgrade to that and then try to install it. if it does not work, i can probably modify it for you (the boot updater (although im not working on HC any longer (last update was 1/9))).

you can use odin to install 10.1v CWM 5.5.0.4. check droidbasement. if you have fastboot, pull recovery.img from the .tar.md5, and fastboot flash recovery it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] ing007:
Yes, I am running Ota 3.2.1 now. As I recall I did try CWM 5.5.0.4 with Odin and I had the same troubles rebooting recovery. Just to be sure I will try again. I am interested in your kernel only to see if I can use the hdtv adapter with my tablet(10.1v, P7100), in case I can't use it, I can sent it back in the next 20 days. Thank you.

Flash 01/09 hc 3.2 kernel in recovery, and right after its done (don't reboot), send me /tmp/recovery.log .

Thx.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] ing007:
Hope that this is what you asked. Thank you.

PS: I tried first to install 10.1v CWM 5.5.0.4 with Odin, but again I couldn't reboot recovery(same screen). Then I extracted recovery.img from the .tar.md5 as you said, but using "fastboot flash recovery" it froze at "Flashing MBR to device#", only "fastboot boot" allowed me to reach CWM and flash the 01/09 hc 3.2 kernel.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] pershoot:
you may be using an incompatible fastboot binary.

use this:

http://droidbasement.com/galaxy/tools/fastboot.exe

now try to flash:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

pls take a nandroid backup and send me your boot.img.

thx.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] ing007:
Done exactly what you said, but again same thing happen (see picture); however, I tried then "fastboot boot" and I was able to reach CWM and take a nandroid backup. Boot.img is in the attached archive. Thank you.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] pershoot:
Can u redo the unlock on your tab? You should be able to flash recovery via fastboot (use the .exe I supplied (for windoze)).

Help! I bought the Samsung HDMI adapter for a Galaxy Tab 7500 10.1,I used 2 different HDMI cables but I cannot connect neither to my Samsung TV nor to a projector with HDMI output.I connect to both devices but nothing at all...No signal. The tablet is unrooted. I really need to use the Tablet for power point presentation to my work. Any ideas guys?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] ing007:
I redone the unlock right now, I've got the same result, freeze at "flashing MBR to device" and I used your exe.

---------- Post added at 12:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:29 AM ----------

Did you connect the charger too? It doesn't work without power supply. If you did connect it, you might try the HDMI adapter with another tablet and with a second TV. If it doesn't work at all with these other devices, you may have a faulty HDMI adapter.. In my case it's "working" but it flickers really bad.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] KOSTMARK:

hi. you round today for a few mins?

i have it fixed, but just need to validate one thing.

thx.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] psedir:
I guess the problem is the software. I tested with another ROM (Jelly Bean), and it works well (but there's no sound yet, it's a preview ROM)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] pershoot:
hmm, sound should work on CM9/10 0814 experimental from DB.

can you PM me and we can go through it?

thx.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] pershoot:
HDMI audio is working in CM9 0814 experimental from DB. it 'should' also work in CM10 0814 since the kernel code is very similar. im having one tester validate tho.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] pershoot:
Audio doesn't route thru HDMI on cm10. I'll fix this up as we move along.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] xe0r:
Are there any new ideas on how to fix the flickering issue? Or is the only solution to wait for a "stable" cm build / use the experimental ones?

*Edit*

A1's Kernel solved the flickering HDMI and the battery drain Problem for me on my stock ital. ics P7501 (now 7500 :D)

So deep sleep at the periods of non usage and nice n64 gameplay on my samsung tv through hdmi. YEAH!

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] tuxnician:
I have a Galaxy 10.2 tablet with the Samsung hdmi output adapter. I also get the flickering but only when using an adapter/converter. I have an hdmi to dvi adapter but the image flickers off and on about every second. If I connect to a true hdmi device (my tv has an hdmi input as well as a projector with hdmi input) there is no flickering and works perfectly.

Hope this helps,

[Nexus S General] fabioascoelho:
I live in Brazil and here the Samsung support are even worse. But what can i do if they have the best phones?

I hope you get your phone back and fixed without any other delay.

Thx for sharing.
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
yes samsung support is horrible i dealt with them very often, and they will not replace / fix the phone for you if it was already fixed once
[Nexus S General] p-slim:
I live in america and we don't deal with samsung. if my phone breaks (which is has twice) we go to the Sprint store and both times my phone was exchanged in store. No problems here.
[Nexus S General] desertflyer:
I live in the United States too, but when you buy your phone in full, you don't get supported by a carrier. I would have thought Best Buy would assume the role of carrier in this situation, but that wasn't the case.
[Nexus S General] p-slim:
That means you must have tmobile. If it's a sprint phone you can take it to the sprint service center
[Nexus S General] desertflyer:
T-Mobile actually has excellent customer support, but they do not sell the Nexus S. Regardless, I just use T-Mobile's network. Simple Mobile is my service provider.
[Nexus S General] saranyan:
I live in India, My phone had a motherboard issue and they had to replace it. They told it would take 7 days. But i was without my phone for three weeks. If i had paid money for the new motherboard instead of claiming warranty i would have got it in 3 days.

Samsung service sucks.
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
Sprint will repair a phone for free if you have insurance or for 35 dollars if you don't. Doesn't matter if its on or off contract. Screw dealing with the manufacturer.
[Nexus S General] thecoogster:
In the uk you should be covered under warranty for at least the first year and it is the place of purchase that has to deal with your returns, dont you have this support in the US?
[Nexus S General] desertflyer:
It depends on the state, but most don't have rules on warranties. Samsung offers 1 year parts + labor, but Best Buy (who sold me the phone) only have a 30 day policy. So basically I have to live with Samsung's support.
[Nexus S General] MaxCarnage:
This. I would never go through what you're going through if I can avoid it. Seven bucks a month is so worth it.

Sprint has been kick ass in this regard too. I once brought in my EVO to a repair center to get a hot spot screen replaced and they did it no questions. Another time I went in and asked for a replacement battery door and they just gave me one with no issues. I love Sprint man.
[Nexus S General] desertflyer:
Samsung have "finished" repairing my phone as of today. Here is what they updated the support ticket with:

Keep in mind the problem was a non-working 3.5mm jack. Needless to say, I have zero confidence the problem is fixed.
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
Wow. That sucks.
[Nexus S General] desertflyer:
I got my Nexus S back Monday and it's fixed! I'm running MIUI on it now. Now that everything is working, I'm remembering why I love this phone. Thanks for letting me vent.

[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

If you have s-off rooted phone,why on earth do you want OTA?

A custom ROM should have the OTA function switched off.

It will only mess up your phone by mixing HTC updates with custom ROM updates.

Anything released by HTC will soon be incorporated into custom ROMS.

If you want OTA updates,then s-on and do it.

:)
[HTC Sensation] dr9722:
A lot of people dont load a custom rom after s-off. They have most likely run the Revolutionary tool to root then just stick with stock in which case OTA updates will keep prompting.

As previous post says you cannot update OTA if a custom recovery has been flashed. Go to the Sensation Android Development section and search for a pre-rooted version, download, copy to SD card and flash in recovery.

Staples received their shipment today (8/19). I'm not sure what models (16/32GB) or accessories they have, but I'm heading there right after work. I was hesitant about this tablet because there's no sdcard slot, but that connector kit sure looks like it makes up for the lack of expansion.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] silverball.slayer:
I went to Staples and the store only had 2 in stock, both 16gb. That is the only model being advertised so I wonder how long it's going to take to see the 32gb model. I played with the 16gb demo model and it seemed very laggy on the home screen. If they had a 32gb I would have it home now, but decided to pass on the 16gb.

I just checked the canadian samsung site and they only list 16gb in the specifications. WTF Samsung, why have you limited us to the base model?

Rob
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] joeystyles66:
the stock homescreen is pretty laggy. Install ADW Launcher EX when you get your tablet, its much smoother

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Willis_G:
I have a rooted thunderbolt running bamf and i found the font settings in the toolkit and i thought wow this would be cool to change fonts, so i picked out one that i liked and it said has to reboot to apply so i clicked reboot and now my phone is stuck on the htc screen when you initially boot.. the only thing i did was pick a font..

.. i tried to get into bootloader but it wont let me pick any options to reboot it just goes to a update and wont let me pick any option..

i did have a backup in clockwork made but i dont know how to get into it since i cant even get the phone on

need some help guys..
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xebryus:
Well if it is trying to update while in HBoot that means you have an existing PG015img.zip on your phone (probably a radio that you flashed awhile ago). This is a big mistake to have not deleted this file. Always delete a PG015img.zip after using it (or renaming it)

The only thing I can suggest is if you have a friend with another smartphone, put your SD card in their phone, and delete that file.

Or if you have a micro sd card reader for your computer, use that to delete the file.

With that file on your SD card, you won't be able to boot into your bootloader, because it will automatically flash a PG015img.zip
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Willis_G:
Yeah thats where im at right now, i just got a sd card reader and removed it so i could get it into recovery, got that part out of the way, now i need to put it back on so i can get it updated and then get a radio on there
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xebryus:
?? Don't put the radio back on there. Once you flash a radio, its done, its on your phone. The only time you should have a radio on your SD card is when you need to actually put a different one on your phone. You phone does not run off of radio on your SD card
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbg25:
I agree...the one time I forgot to delete the radio image off my SD after an update...I had my phone get caught in hboot trying to update again while at work. I had to borrow a friends micro SD reader to pull the file before I could resolve my issues. Would have been much easier if I had deleted it when I was done.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Willis_G:
I know i realised that shortly after and never reinstalled it Thank you for the reminder.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Willis_G:
Yeah thats exactly what i had to do too, it freaked me out becuase i couldnt use any of the options in the menu and it kept just jumping to the updates

but its all good now.. kinda crazy how the phone bricked because of a font selection, i wont ever touch that option again though.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robzuki:
If you have a back up from clockworkmod try using adb... type adb reboot recovery in command prompt while your phone is connected to your computer, and once you get into clockworkmod recovery restore your back up. I had a problem with my lockscreen, I also didn't delete my radio, and this worked for me.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CanesDrew:
It didn't brick. It just froze.

If it bricks you will know it.

As for the radio, keep it on your SD. That way if you need to change it, its there. Just rename it.

For example: "MR2-PG05IMG.zip"
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
That's exactly what I do, and what I suggest in my q AND a thread. Also, after it's there on your root and renamed, CHECK the MD5!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] verusevo:
ok im not really sure wtf is going in here but. ive been on Bonsai 1.5 rom for a couple of weeks. i then switched to Starburst ROM but didnt care for it so i went back to Bonsai but updated to 3.0. So i take my fully charged tab to a friends house whom i spend te nite and barely use it while im there. I get home in the morning maybe 10-12 hours later and my tab is almost dead(approx 15%). I plug it in and not an hour later itsays %100 ( yeah rite). I unplug it and use it and notice the battery is on a terminal downslide. Its liteally goin throug a percent about evey minute. I try reflashing roms multiple times but this now seems to be the case on every ROM i attemp outside of plain old vanilla stock rom. I literally started writing this post with 99% battery and as of this sentence am down to 70%. I dont know why this is. Has anyine else experienced anything similar??
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] pegaxs:
If you go into the Dev section of the 10.1 tabs.. there is a heap of people complaining of the same things... there are some things you can do... reflashing ROMS is not good... because each time you do that, it seems to make the battery worse... it needs to have the battery recalibrated under the current ROM.. I was having the same issues... stopped flashing ROMS and did the battery calibration on mine and now its back to what it was on the stock ROM :)
