When I considered whether to flash this ROM today afternoon, I admit to have been not so sure - now that I actually did it and have been spending the last couple of hours installing apps, reading on the net and posting, etc. I love the speed boost it has given to my Galaxy Tab and can recommend this ROM whole-heartedly. Like the blue custom animations (loading battery animation, etc.) . . . Thank you for Overcome!

Forgot to mention,

the Kernel is top notch :-)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Marvout:
I would like to flash my 4.1.0 back to 4.0.0 to see if it improves my wifi, battery and bluetooth issues. BUT, I can't find my copy of 4.0.0. I found the links earlier in the thread, but they're all dead. Is there any where else that I can get 4.0.0?

Could it be added to the Overcome site to allow us to re-download it?

Thanks AnttiV for them. both 4.0 wipe and no wipe.

BTW, only the links for uploadhere and uploadking is alive.

I may try this over the weekend... I'd like to get rid of my stock ROM and be able to throw my phone's SIM in this thing and use it like a phone. My current AT&T plan has unlimited data grandfathered in.

Hi! Where can i find the original overcome 4.1.0 wallpaper becos after changing to a different launcher and new wallpaper, theres nowhere i can find that original wallpaper, unless i do a full wipe... Can someone help me out here? Thanks. Great rom btw!!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mab71:
Bump.,.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] phlooke:
Here you go ;)

Overcome default wallpaper
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Marvout:
Nope, both those links are dead for me in Canada. I tried all the options on the download page and only wupload works. Got both the wipe & no wipe. - Thanks.

Now I know why I couldn't find my copy of 4.0.0. Figured it out when I saw it boot. I went from Kratos 3 to 4.1.0. Now I No-Wiped my way back to 4.0.0 and my bluetooth works. I'll test my WIFI at work and see if it is any better there than it was on 4.1.0. Yesterday I didn't get any proper connection at all.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] andiemerchcomia:
Good fay. I have a 32gb class 4 micro sd from sandisk. Would like to optimize it for use in this rom. What should be the best and optimized file system ir workaround to be able to have better use if my sd card. Thanks.in advance and mote power.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Dhekelian:
I have had a few issues with 4.1.0 but it definitely is faster so I perservered with it. I did have the wifi problem which was so frustrating but chaging the Router settings seems to have worked.

Last couple of days though I have this problem which is driving me round the bend. If I receive a call or text message or make one a mp3 file keeps playing and I cannot turn it off. The mp3 file is an audio book which I put on the phone from my laptop. Surely that cannot be the problem can it?

I have tried changing the default ringtone and notification sounds just in case but it still happens. Anyone know how I can fix this?

Apart from that if I can cure it this is an excellent Rom and Thankyou for doing it.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] phlooke:
LOL.

You could try creating a folder on the internal SD and call it "Notifications"

Into which you dump and MP3 or whatever for your text messages/ringtones

Now go to the relevant apps and change the notification sound to that which you added to the Notifications folder.

Might work :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Dhekelian:
I have a couple of apps that let you assign ringtones like zedge. I have assigned a default ringtone for phones and notifications but still it plays this audio book (Sherlock Holmes btw).

It even plays it when I send a message.

I don't mean to be dense here but does notifications cover receiving and sending sms? Or is there a setting justfor sending somewhere?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mike2nl:
Dont forget to reboot when you have created the new folders...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] phlooke:
Err, open SMS app, press menu, select notifications - now go to your newly created folder and select your desired file

Is there a way to run this ROM in mdpi (160 dpi)? Hyperdroid runs well like this, but I think Overcome looks better. I tried editing build.prop, but that created a lot of graphical problems. I also tried the app LCD Resolution, and that did a better job, but there still were some issues. Does anybody know how to run Overcome without issues? An app maybe, or changing settings or files?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] sundar83:
i cant download anything thru browser it said download failed came from humberto latest ICS build any one help me to fix this one
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] priyana:
did you do a factory reset / wipe coming from ICS back to GB?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] rwa66:
I don't think so. I tried 120dpi and 160dpi but the screen is getting scrambled.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] barsk:
I don't know if this is reported, but all the image links in the guide section on the website are broken. Also the link to the "Tweaks" section from The Guide is also broken.

Is there a way to donate to the devs? Coming from a stock Froyo ROM this is a really great improvement! Thank you for Overcome ROM :)

... tapatalked
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] chastity:
Thanks for a new update. MUCH appreciated.

I've tried the CM9 and although it worked pretty smooth it lagged a bit. I'm sure it will get better thanks to Humberos and the other devs.

With the new Overstock I'm happy with my Galaxy Tab again.

I had to install twice though. It installed the NO-WIPE fine but kept rebooting. I thought it was the modem so I went back and reinstalled the stock (and not the KM2). Still didn't work. So I did the WIPE of 7.0 and then used the new NO-WIPE. Now I'm back in play for real. Love it! Thanks

I use the Galaxy Tab for reading (books), mail and easy web access. I have my Transformer Prime with kb for heavy work.

Thanks again!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Suleeto:
Add me to the list of people who gave in, flashed this ROM, and then ended up with the dreaded wifi flip-flop problem. Even after I flashed the Overcome_7_Series_v4.1.0_Wifi_Fix.

It's too bad, because everything else about this ROM is lightning fast.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] espionage724:
Do you mean your wifi disconnects and reconnects at regular intervals? If so, go to your router settings, set the DHCP renewal thing to anything except forever.

Either that, or use a static IP.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Suleeto:
I'm just gonna say it.

No.

Why?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1470307

I said why right there. No need to repeat myself. This problem needs fixin' lol. I'd hate to have to jump ship to another ROM, everything else about this one so far is rockin'.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] espionage724:
In response to:

The issue (to my knowledge, and I could be wrong, so correct me if I'm wrong, but this is only what I heard) is present in all Gingerbread ROM's. So switching to another GB ROM will do nothing.

I had the Wifi problem on my friends router on Overcome, Stock, and Hyperdroid.

I currently have ICS on my tab atm so I can't actually test to see if this issue is still present or not.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Suleeto:
I don't recall that being a factor when I ran the stock gingerbread before flashing Overcome, but I didn't pay too close attention how long I stayed connected to my router... and an hour later I was flashed with Overcome.

I noticed when I turned on my HTC Aria's wifi router (sets up an Adhoc wifi), the Overcome 4.1.0'd Tab connected to it and stayed connected. No bouncy up-down connection dance.

So...?

Seriously? Anyone else able to substantiate this "all Gingerbread connects funky" idea? Reading through the last handful of pages in THIS thread, it seemed like some people flashed Overcome 4.0 or other ROM series and the problem went away, so...

???

Still... in defense of Overcome's chef, this ROM is ridiculously super fast, like lightning. Boot, application execution, screen updating, screen rotation response, etc. Extremely impressive in terms of fluidity and speed.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] absolutab:
Not every GB ROM. Only on 2.3.6 JQ8. Had no issues with wi-fi on previous GB versions.

OTOH, on previous versions I had market issues (even at 240 dpi and with the 60Mb cache hack) and everything's working great on 2.3.6. Go figure... If I could have overcome 7 4.0 with overcome 7 4.1 market behavior I'd be more than happy.

I've tried ICS CM9 and wi-fi seemed stable.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Suleeto:
So what you're saying then is that you're damned if you do (4.1.0 has later Gingerbread and thus wifi problems) or damned if you don't (Overcome 4.0 has stable wifi but has market issues).

So basically... if someone wants a stable ROM, Overcome isn't the way to go....?

I'm just trying to summarize what facts you've put forth above.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Dardevil1977:
First, sorry for my bad english :D

It seems that i don't have Wi-Fi problems, at least i didn't saw it. But, i have another problem. My 3g connection randomly disconnects. I noticed that on MSN, from time to time it signes off and then signes in again. Even if when i turn on Wi-Fi hotspot and surf on my desktop computer. There i have MSN messenger too, same problem. Downloading something or not, same thing. Sometimes it signs of two times in one minute, sometimes it stays online for an half an hour.

I have tried few modems, no help at all. I did't had this problem on Froyo, only after upgrade to Gingerbread.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] absolutab:
Nope, you're stretching it... the wi-fi problem is common to ALL 2.3.6 (at least in my tab), not just Overcome.

The market issue on 4.0 had some workarounds (like the cache patch or change dpi, clear market cache and pray) and the rom was just PERFECT apart from that issue. Fast, smooth and stable.

Still didn't find the perfect ROM (for my kind of use), but overcome is damn near it.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] chastity:
I have been running Overcome for a long time. I left it numerous times to try other ROMS. Latest I obviously tried the different ICS versions (most notably and latest the CM9 version - which is getting better and better and much respect to the devs for that).

I chose to go back to Overcome 4.1.0 and I do not have ANY WiFi problems at all. It works like always: Fast and reliable.

I had an issue with 4G (in fact it almost always chose Edge) but I fixed that by installing the stock modem i.e. "downgrading" from KM2.

Hope that helps!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Suleeto:
4G? I think you have a typo there :P

Not everyone has wifi problems. But a noticable number of people do (including me).

I didnt get to visit the three other networks today that I wanted to try. That will be tomorrow.

softkey backlight

Is it possible to disable the softkey backlight on a p1000 completely ?

I found a settings within CWM (4.1.0 / tweaks) menu,to make the softkey backlight go off after a short while. Is there a way to change this time value somehow manually,so that the softkeys stay dark all the time ?

Also I was wondering if its possible to permanently dim the softkey backlight ? This would be even better.

There is an app on the market which can do this, unfortunately this only works until you turn off your p1000,then you have to apply the setting again.

(android market : net.beshkendze )

You can automate this with tasker,but this is an ugly workaround,and I was hoping for a permanent solution.

I really love my p1000,but for me the backlight of the softkeys is just way too bright :((

If there is a way to do either of the above (disable/dim) please let me know,I dont mind complicated solutions !!

also ,if anyone of the overcome rom team is reading this,a BIG THANKS for all your work&time you invested into this rom (and previous versions as well). I cant imagine to use/enjoy my p1000 without the overcome rom !!

I am on 2.3.3 based version P1000DXJPE Kernel overcome-v3.1.0 #16

Do I need the full wipe version? Everything works fine for me on the current version including market and wifi, tethering, cam, battery is good..etc.

The only issue I have is when streaming videos or playing games it just hang , freeze and only way to get it to work again is to force it to reboot

Would that problem go away if I upgrade?

Thanks for the great job you been doing
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mab71:
Overcome 5??? Is that a typo or what??
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] msgfromside3:
If you don't want to use it that is fine but let's set the record straight so that everyone knows that it is just your problem. Many if not all 2.3.6 suffers this issue. For example take a look at i777 forum, specifically unnamed rom. Same issue. I installed overcome 4.1 for my tab and my wife is using it without any issue at home. Of course i am not silly enough to make my wifi dhcp lease more than a few hours. So people, don't accuse nor whine unless you know exactly what you are talking about. It is simple as that.

I am running Overcome 4.1 I have searchedthe internet for the last 7 hours to find a solution for why my bluetooth keyboard is not working on the Tab but is working well on the Note with no solution as yet.

Is there somebody that can point me in the right direction please?!!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] rwa66:
Are you using a Sprint or Verizon Tab? I know these two have trouble with Bluetooth keyboards. Brando for example explicitly warns users for this problem with their BT keyboard.

If you are using another Tab then I don't have a solution. It should work though, because I am using BT keyboard without any problem.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mike2nl:
There is possible a solution. Search for: AF974-Kernel-P1000-V 3.0

And look in that thread from AF974. Possible you find some hints and a really good kernel..

Also here in this thread you will find things about BT issues.

You have to delete one file when the keyboard was connected once.

But don' t ask me you have to search, Sorry.

I think I'm in trouble..

I was trying to install new firmware over a Froyo base.. I rooted it succesfully, I checked the bootloader and it was safe.. Now I'm using odin to flash the Stock firmware and it is blocked at "factoryFS" from 15 minutes.. Since this is not my first tab flash, I know that it need 5 mins, not more.. and since there is written "Do not turn off Target" I don't know what I have to do..

Please help :(
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] espionage724:
I don't know exactly how I got off Froyo, but I'm pretty sure I followed some other guide about how to get to GB Euro firmware. I don't know if this matters or not though when flashing with Odin.

In any case, to restock to GB, you want the PIT, PDA, and Modem sections with files, you want re-partition checked, and then you should be good to go
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] pippocannelunghe:
Nothing after 30 minutes that it was at "fsfactory" I plugged off the cable and shutdown the device.. now it won't start anymore, neither download mode or normal mode... is it an hard brick????

Yes It's most probably bricked.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] rwa66:
I have had bad experiences with flashing too, but every time I could revive my Tab without sending it anywhere. So there is hope.

Maybe this thread can help you out. Good luck!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tupo05:
Check it the battery is charged. Charge the tab for an hour, then check if you can enter download mode. If yes, then you're safe. restock to GB and flash overcome.

Good luck

@rwa66 ---> How are you man. Long time no see. You helped me unbrick my tab long time ago. an my first THANKS on XDA was for you. Remember ?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] pippocannelunghe:
Untill now, it isn't giving me any sign of life... it seems a coma brick, but why from 7 pm to 11 pm it isn't started again?

Would really be possibile that it is an hard brick?

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] KENDALWARRIOR:
hold the volume down simultaneously with power on, even though there is nothing displaying on the screen, plug it to odin, odin will detect your tab, flash a good kernel and rom, Preferably a known working one and you are good to go...

Happened to me already last time....
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] phlooke:
Here is a quote from the Overcome Guide:

Do note that you should NEVER update Overcome ROMs across different bases, like 1.4.x to 1.6.x or god forbid, FroYo 1.4.x/1.6.x to Gingerbread 3.x/4.x! You need to do the full-shebang listed below…

Hopefully you have been able to follow the good advice above and get you Tab running again, this thread may help as well should you need it.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] rwa66:
Haha, yes, I remember. Still happy with your Tab?

I am anxiously waiting for ICS to be finished :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ParryB:
Now that I can finally post in the dev thread, I am re-iterating the issues, I faced after flashing, here:

Issue 1: When the tab is connected to PC through USB either to KIES or on Mass Storage mode: It does not charge anymore whereas it used charge before when I had Overcome 2 installed.

Issue 2: Menu > Settings > Wireless and network > Synchronize < Keeps crashing. The "Synchronize" feature keeps force closing every time I try to access it. Not that I need it that often but it would be good to have the default features working the way it is.

And, yes I have re-stocked it before flashing to OC wipe. Infact I did it again on priyana's suggestion and still the same problem.

And, I have flashed before too. I was on OC build 2 before I switched to 4.1.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] phlooke:
I've been running OC for a couple of months.

I read this and thought "what is this guy on about"? ...so I tried out the sychronize option and I get the FC.

I guess this is a confirmation of the bug!

err...is it needed? :confused:
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] edition-:
Hey guys,

A friend of mine asked me if I could get him GB for his froyo tab.

I went around the forum a bit and I think I got it down (root,patch,etc..,etc..)

The thing is, I really want something stable as the original but as good as possible. Other thing is that it has to work with kies because of outlook sync etc. Is Overcome the way to go? Or should I just use stock GB?

Thanks =)

btw, it looks like alterbridge is working hard on ICS on his github :)

Two observations:

does anyone find that at times wifi is lost and you need to turn wifi off and then back on again to reconnect? i was already supplying a static ip to the tab. so now i've set lease time as well to 300 and will see how that pans out. i thought the solution was one or the other not both.

i also tried to do a nand backup. but it had the error

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Dhekelian:
I had the wifi drop as well. It seems to affect Belkin Routers for some reason. To cure it you have to change the IP refresh rate. It is set to unlimited or forever by default but you have to change it to two weeks or whatever. Not sure why this works but it does.

I have noticed my Tab's menu buttons keep flashing every now and then, it is very off putting. Any idea what is happening?
