Heimdall Sucks. If your using ODIN you have to switch Drivers, Screw that. I just Ripped the Zimage out of the ROM and Flashed it with SGS Kernel Flasher and all was Golden. :p
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] AdamOutler:
No. You have it backwards, wrong, and you should be ashamed of yourself.

Backwards- Heimdall only installs drivers for a single USB port. Where as with Samsung drivers it will wipe all other drivers. You don't switch drivers for heimdall, you have a single heimdall USB poet. You switch drivers for Odin.

Wrong- The heimdall One-Click format handles everything and launches all dependencies... the only thing you have to do is click. Its not your typical driver install.

You should be ashamed of yourself- Odin is a closed source turd which was shat by Samsung in the middle of our Open-Source community punch-bowl. Heimdall is open source, and without open-source, you wouldn't have the option of flashing a single ROM. Before you go spouting off about what you think is best, you need to do some research. Heimdall is safer to use than Odin in 6 ways. Its only limitation is that it supports a limited number of devices. So before you go recommending the bringer-of-bricks you call Odin, keep in mind by recommending Odin is not only a bad idea, it goes against the moral foundation of our open source work on XDA.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] vabeach454:
OK... I will say that I am more familiar with ODIN than Heimdall and that what your Batch is suppost to do is Great. I tried it... I opened zagdig and installed usb composite device drivers and it passed, but would not work upon 10 tries and I do admit I was Frustrated at it. Here I am in Dowload Mode Just waiting for a Soft Brick because of a NON working Heimdall and I am sure mostly (My Fault) as what your saying makes sence. Like I said I DL the ROM and took the Zimage out and Flashed it via SGS Kernel Flasher. Worked Like Butter. While I understand the need of Heimdall & ODIN for Flashing to stock, due to Bricks and what not, but I Prefer CWM Flashable Zips, What is easier than that? The Tab is a 3rd Device of mine and my phones you see in my Sig are my main Devices and I Flash at Will with my Dual Core Monster HTC. I started with a Vibrant and back then we did'nt have Heimdall and I am in no way ashamed of myself. I have used Heimdall with good results, but there are some files on here only in ODIN format, depending on the Dev. ;)

Juat wanted to say thanks for a fast/stable rom for us sprint guys. I have been watching the forum for 6 months now waiting on something for sprint and only saw gsm tabs takeoff. Anyways thanks again. Cant wait to see whats coming next with an update.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] interloper:
Sig check y'all

1n1tia|c0nt4ct snap bang pow...watch me now.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] bigtoysrock:
Ok Fergie!!

Lol that's all that I could think off when I saw that. :p
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] droiduzr2:
Will this ROM be updated to 2.3.5?

Will you guys port ICS from the gsm tab when ICS is working on those?

Thanks for your efforts in helping the rest of us.

This open community stuff is pretty damn cool.

One more reason Android is better:D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tpike:
I definitely want to see ics in the tab. as far as porting goes, that is a huge task that I can't commit to with my personal life. I do hope to have another release by year end and I am kind of dragging my feet due to the big changes in android updates that seem to be popping up. Stick around...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] droiduzr2:
I don't see a big difference between the CDM and GSM tab.

Another thread a Sprint tab guy installed the gsm rom and it works fine.

I guess he would just have to flash the Sprint modem.

I guess all the effort is on ICS since it's the new standard across the devices, which is a good thing. It should make the Dev's life easier.

2.3.5 seems to be the end of the road for GB.

I hope you guys will release a 2.3.5x making it clean/tidy/neat and fast.

I hope you contact mtcarey, he has released a kick ass CWM that he partially rewrote and cleaned up for the Galaxy S (captivate phones) which is almost the same hardware as the tablet.

THANKS for your efforts!!!!

I am always impressed by what you "hacks" create.

Maube a noob question but what busybox version is running with this rom

HTC EVO 4G running Mikg 2.58
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] bigtoysrock:
Its 1.18.4 according to titanium backup.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Dmaxx67:
Can u downgrade to 1.18.2 with the marjet installer?

Sent from Sprint Galaxy Tab
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] bigtoysrock:
Its jumps to 1.17.2 with the market installer.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Dmaxx67:
So of I select 1.18.2 than it reverts back to 1.17.2?

Sent from Sprint Galaxy Tab
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] bigtoysrock:
Not exactally. The installer has the 1.18.4 and then 1.17.2 and then even newer ones. Download the installer and click on it to show you which ones are available. Why are you needing to downgrade bb?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] 1musicman:
Been using this rom for about a week now loving it. Really smooth and snappy compared to stock. Only issue I've encountered is that now my gps doesnt work. Dont really use it much but yesterday my satellite got blown down and i use Dishpointer to re aim it and gps would not even turn on.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] pupochek:
Works fine on mine, smth else is going on...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Dmaxx67:
On the thread for v6 says use with busybox 1.18.2 or lower. Did u install on this rom with no downgrade or anything special?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] bigtoysrock:
I have it as is with nothing extra. I don't use v6 but I would assume that you can downgrade it to 1.17 and get away with it.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] pvtjoker42:
Downgrading busybox works fine to run v6. Easy enough with the busybox installer from the market.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tpike:
Thanks for carrying the thread along over the past week or so. Schedule has been right with Christmas fast approaching.

So how does v6 treat you?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] pupochek:
Works great :-) Still trying to find Google Talk with video working on this rom...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tpike:
im actually testing something right now.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] interloper:
Is it cm gapps xxxxxx newtalk.zip? I tried that with some success. I cant remember the version and dont have the link on my phone just now. Sorry so nonspecific.

Not trying to rush or anything but any updates coming out for this rom?

I've been on this rom since day 1 and its solid. I'd reflash after a good wipe. Reboot.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Dmaxx67:
Can I use setcpu on this rom with the thunderbolt scripts and voltage control?

Sent from Sprint Galaxy Tab
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Dmaxx67:
I will probably wipe and reload. What is your method for wiping?

Sent from Sprint Galaxy Tab
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] interloper:
set cpu will work. I've used it. I wipe with CWM, but, Calkulin has a script that flashes in cwm called wipe all. Search and you'll probably find that. I;ve never felt it necessary, but some like it so try it for yer self. Also, I didn't ask if you used the ext4 conversion tool? I did and it worked a charm.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tpike:
I have actually gotten in some good dev time over the past week or 2. I'm still thinking around jan 1. Currently I have about 5 mods that I have never tried before, but should be nice. Currently they are segmented out and are waiting on me to test individually before baking into one thick juicy rom.

I haven't stared theming yet and that could take a while since I feel I left out some good theming opportunities on my initial release. I might be willing to sub out some apk theming if someone with experience wants to get involved.

Thanks for sticking around and for keeping the Q&A rolling!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Dmaxx67:
Isnt voltage control a cpu governor? Oh well Ill give setcpu a shot.

This is a great rom and yes I am using ext4.

I have been wanting to get into some dev work so i guess ill start light with theming. Ill let ya know if I

I come up w/ any thing.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] stew1411:
Good work. Im enjoying this on my tab. Ive actually thought about an attempt to make one myself, since the sprint tab selection is limited. Ive got about 2 years android experience. But overall good job.

Can someone help me out.

I am trying to figure out how to change the theme on this ROM.

I want to change it so the battery icon is not red. I am giving the tablet to a senior and they will think the battery is dead or something is wrong.

How and where do I get app or info to change the stock theme.

I am NOT trying to change the Launcher theme just the system theme for the icons such as power and wifi etc...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tpike:
everything i themed in this rom was done in either systemUI.apk or in framework-res. you can pull those apks from my rom and make your own theme.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] droiduzr2:
That's beyond my ability.

Is there some other option or app or theme that I can get from somewhere else?

What if I replaced those files with the ROM from my GSM tab?

Will that be a problem if I used the Overcome 4.0 files?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] interloper:
Maybe UOT theme kitchen will work for you. Its pretty simple, YouTube videos to help, and you'll get exactly what you need.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] adrian2pm:
how is this rom? im picking one up from craigslist tomorrow but cant decide which one to get. verizon or sprint? i will not be activating it i will be using just the wifi and use my evo as hotspot. which one is easier to root verizon or sprint version? thanks
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] interloper:
This rom is light, quick and stable. Verizon has more choices. I have been on this rom since day two with no issues and nice flexibility.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Dmaxx67:
Sprint is easy to root. I hate to say it but there are more options for verizon.

thanks...just rooted mine and will download this now

can someone help me? how do i flash this rom? what do i need . i already rooted my tab using oneclick.

sorry new to that tablet scene. i can flash my evo with my eyes closed
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] bigtoysrock:
Its the same. Just get a kernel with cwm and flash like normal.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] adrian2pm:
do i pick one from any from the list below?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] bigtoysrock:
You don't have clockwork recovery yet right? Do #2 first, then #4. Then come back to this thread and flash this rom. I didn't use one click to root, I odined #1 from rodderik, so I'm assuming it did not give you clockwork.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tpike:
Best thing to do is get cwm from his thread, flash the ext4 converter tool, flash my rom :)

question

this rom looks great man cant wait i just got tab rooted and put cwm on it and i downloaded the ext4 converter tool. From what i understand i go into recovery and flash to ext4 then flash rom and im in business BUT when do i do my full wipe? prior to converting to ext4 or do i convert then do wipe then flash rom? thanks man cant wait to flash this by the way
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tpike:
the ext conversion will go fastest if you wipe before converting. it will clear out all your data and therefore have less to move around during conversion.

happy flashing!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] fabs109:
Im on it and everything went smooth as butter thank you!! Ill play with it tonight and report back tomorrow
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] adrian2pm:
help. i had this rom running all smooth and had the way i wanted i backed it up through cwm before flashing future echoes which didnt flash. i then tried to restore from my back up which is this rom after i reboot it hangs on samsung screen..is the backup restore on cwm faulty?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] interloper:
The backup made by CWM is legit. I have two suggestion. One is to reflash this rom and use Titanium to extract the data from the backup. Titanium does have that feature. The other idea is to reflash this rom, then try to run the backup again. Did you convert to ext4 prior to flashing this rom initially? If not this might be a good time to do that. Others have had the same problem with their backups not working and there is some discussion about it in this thread and the better than life and future echoes threads. Good luck.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] adrian2pm:
do i have to partition my sd card first to run ext4? will it delete everything i have if i partition?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tpike:
Read through rodderik s rom thread. The pit is needed in repartition if you are going to restore via nan backup. Fwiw, I never use nandroid, I reflash and restore apps via titanium or my backup root.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] interloper:
The ext4 tool doesn't touch the SD card. If you want to partition your card back up your data to another storage device such as you PC, then follow the instruction on http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1158993 to do that. I also use tpike's method for the Tab. I use CWM on other devices.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] adrian2pm:
thanks yall..finally got to restore whew..i aint messing around with it till ice cream sandwhich comes out.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tpike:
Woohoo!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] fabs109:
everything is running great sometime the snowfall live background gets a little laggy when going through the screens but it did it on the tab before this rom so it may just be that. Also ive had to reboot 2wice because it froze up after waking it up but that was shortly after the flash so it may not have settled yet other then that no complaints great work man thanks alot!!! I would love a ICS THEME!! I know a lot of people dont like it buut i love it. lol ive been dieing to start themeing i used to make A LOT for Blackberry before i switched to android and dabbbled in it for android a bit but havnt found a great program to do it with yet.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] monkeefied:
hi, I've had the rom installed and running for a few months now. I gotta say, I love this rom, snappy as hell! Kudos for all the work! I have only had one issue, and it's negligible, when bringing the tab out of sleep and unlocking only the bottom bar of the homescreen shows until i go to swipe the screen to either side. This doesn't bother me at all just figured i would let you know. Also 1 question: How do i uninstall swype on this thing? sorry if the question has been asked before, I am lazy and did not read through the 16 pages in this post to see if my question was asked already.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tpike:
hrm, i havent noticed that, are you on ext4 and overclocking?

have you tried removing swype from manage apps? i cant recall if i put it in system/apps or not. if so you can search for the apk in es explorer and delete it. :)

thanks for the compliments. i hope to have time after the christmas rush is over to wrap up the new version.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] monkeefied:
are you on ext4 and overclocking? - yup :D

have you tried removing swype from manage apps? - it's there but it doesn't have an uninstall option.

i hope to have time after the christmas rush is over to wrap up the new version - can't wait!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] bigtoysrock:
Use tiatanium back up to uninstall swype.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] monkeefied:
That totally worked thanks BTR!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] bigtoysrock:
No problem.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] monkeefied:
wait, nope. just restarted the phone and now i get : "The application Swype (processcom.swype.android.inputmethod) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again" like every 10 seconds now.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] interloper:
Using root explorer go to root/data/data and delete com.swype. inputmethod. Solved. If you want a free app try esfile explorer.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] bigtoysrock:
I thought you UNINSTALLED it with TB?? Oh wait I bet you got it from the market again huh? Forget swype anyways! SwiftX is where its at. Download that. Way better IMO.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] bigtoysrock:
He already uninstalled it and prolly redownloaded it from the market and its acting a fool again.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] monkeefied:
I downloaded it from the link that swype sent me for the beta version, I usually use thumb keyboard, but I wanted to try the new dragon voice recognition that swype is using now. I did use Titanium backup to remove the pre-installed version, but after doing that, the error I posted previously is what I get now after having installing again with the swype installer. Is the root explorer method the same as using Ti Backup?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] interloper:
I don't know how TB works, but the error you were stating was from a remnant of the swype program attempting to operate without the required dependencies or libraries. Deleting the com process should eliminate the FC. Did the instructions from Swype tell you to uninstall the old app?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] adrian2pm:
can someone tell me why do i always have to flash back to cwm 4.0.15 to restore my back up of this rom. is it possible to flash using cwm 5.0.27?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] interloper:
That might be explained some here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1275031

Swype states that if using a device with the app pre-installed, that they don't support an install of the Beta version or do any updates. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] RandomKing:
Yeah, you have to remove the swype apk from system/app as well as the libswypecore.so from system/lib.

One would think it wouldn't be so hard to just re-use and update these files... but why make it easy for us? It's so much easier for them to tell you you'll be out of date for no reason. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tpike:
I will keep it out of system next time, sorry. Swype beta USED to have an uninstall option but has since removed it and not allowed dl if you have it in system.

I was expecting it to suck, given the new OS, 512RAMs and 1GHz processor .. But holy ****

It's like, the smoothest and fastest gadget I've ever used (Faster than the S2. HD7, iPhone 4 and whatever gadget/OS), I've used it for half an hour (Got caught up in heavens and 'till I felt the cashier was pissed off he waited so long lol) and not a single lag in sight, didn't even feel like it was gonna lag. The UI is godly, everything is just a swipe away, swipe left or right to leave the app open and swipe down to close it (Or via the task manager which is a part of the homescreen). I opened a lot of apps and it didn't feel the tiniest bit slower at all. It was a shocking experience.

And the design was sweet minimalist, it sure looks like a plain rectangular in the pictures but in reality it looks very luxurious, and the curved screen (From the outside, not from the inside like Nexus S/Galaxy Nexus) is a beautiful touch.

I seriously considered getting that device right off the market, until I visited the app store, it isn't even above 200. Sure, it has all the basic apps from Angry Birds, Skype, etc. But the need for exploring won't be fulfilled with this one (Beside, no Fruit Ninja).

I wonder why did Nokia give up such innovative and revolutionary OS? I mean, if they kept using it, they'd be one of the best brands out there with an OS that separates them. It's the best thing ever.

Of course, it might have an Android Ice Cream Sandwich port since it's open-source and button-less (It's a very high possibility actually), if that thing happened then I'm switching. :D

Stephen Elop is by far the worst CEO or president ever, even worse than Gaddafi to be honest. :mad:
[General Topics] z33dev33l:
My experience was a bit different. The hardware amazed me but the software was a downer. I'd already tried WP7 so I had the smoothest and while Meego beats out Android in terms of speed ten times over it doesn't feel like it competes with WP7. That and the OS just sort of looks cheap to me.
