Never seen this issue either.

There will be a new version soon, it will have a few things fixed... Motley has a new toy, so he is busy with that. In fact i also have a new toy and been playing with it.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] bdfull3r:
New toys are always fun i would do the same thing, please dont forget about us.....

Update

Good Morning Galaixan Galaxy Tab Fans!

We are sorry we've been quiet lately, and I know a few of you have been wondering what we have been up to.

There isn't any impending releases at this time. But behind the scenes we've been working, and in discussions on a number topics brought up here.

1. We hope we found the fix for the "freezing browser", we are integrating that and will be testing that soon.

2. Per a request in the forum we are looking at Onskreen Cornerstone (to be released as a separate build). It does look nifty, and its caused quite the stir amongst Cyanogenmod and Google, Color us "intrigued".

3. Lastly we have been officially blessed by The Android Open Kang Project! So look for a separate build conforming with them in the near future.

Thanks for sticking with us, you will not be disappointed!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] lithuanian:
We will appreciate your efforts. Better not to rush and make good than to rush and do badly...
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] fpdragon:
How cool is that? Jesus!!!, Awesome, Can't wait! ....

Ähhhmmm... I like it :)

Edit:

PS: I'm a volunteer for testing this ;)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] drauks:
I occasionally experienced garbage on screen when pushing home. Starting applications from the notification area seems to work but eventually the device needs a reboot, which sometimes happens by itself. Has anyone else experienced something similar?[/QUOTE]

Yep, this happens all the time. I have to reboot a couple of times a day..
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] loneBoat:
I've experienced this as well. Seems to come in waves - it'll be fine one day, and then the next day I'll get the issue several times.

FWIW, I've found that navigating to Settings-->Apps-->All-->Launcher-->Force Stop fixes it for a while without requiring a reboot. (Launcher stops, then restarts the next time you hit "Home").
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] SecretAgentKen:
I haven't experienced any of the screen garbage issues but I use ADW Ex and not the default launcher so that may be the reason. I am seeing crashes at night while it's charging. I'll wake up and the tab is charged but turned off. It seems to be related to the browser, Flash, and charging as it doesn't seem to happen if it's not charging and it doesn't seem to happen if it is charging but I Force Stop the browser prior to putting it away for the night. Anyone seen anything like this?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nycbjr:
Exciting news!

We have a beta build of Galaxian-Soup AOKP edition. Nice to be blessed I say!

Look for a new thread in the morning, all I can say is there are enough toggles in the launcher to keep a tweaker happy!

otherwise stay tuned here, (we are not abandoning this rom what so ever), we will have conerstone options coming.

Exciting times, you will have many flavors of Galaxian-Soup to choose from, what you choose if I may use one more food pun.. is a matter of "taste" lol

And dare I say Galaxian-Soup roms for other devices? Im taking suggestions/donations :eek:

Good night and check back in the morning!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] otaku888:
Thanks nycbjr. Could you tell me what aokp is exactly? Is it a rom? Why is it different from CM9?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] WoodpeckerS:
Galaxian Soup for Samsung Note??? :)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nycbjr:
AOKP is the Android Open Kang Project

http://forum.aokp.co/

0

Roman is an active member on XDA, and started this project as an alternative to Cyanogenmod, he's got quite the following already, and (before this one) about 19 supported deivces.. and he's a super nice guy to boot!

our 2 will bring it to over 21

I'm just waiting for feedback from ranno on the 3f build and then I will post it up.

It seems to have fixed the rotation bug (but that could be subjective still wiping the sleep from eyes, needs coffee thing) haha if it does we will integrate that fix here as well.

Check back in a few hours!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] NCXC:
YES YES YES THIS IS AWESOME!!!! AOKP is a great base, I use it on my captivate. Quick, customizable, good battery, just to name a few...

Thanks a million times to the whole team!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] tommrazek01:
Haha. Maybe, why not?

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] bdfull3r:
I noticed something odd, I don't know if it is a but. In my task switcher I am always seeing google maps when I never open it and I never have gps on
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] poisike:
I think this is a problem with the latest Maps app, i have the same problem on my gt7.7 and it has stock rom.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] _motley:
I've seen this on almost every device I have had (Iconia, Prime and this tab). This is caused by trigger events defined by the application (on boot, on network restore, on gps on etc.). When you see apps running that you didn't start, they are being started by these events. I have used software such as Gemini and autostarts that allow you to turn off these events for certain apps. I typically use it to turn off apps on boot that I don't want running if there isn't a setting in the app itself. You have to be careful, but you can clean up apps that are constantly triggering that you don't want to be running.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] bdfull3r:
I hear jeopardy music as I wait for the next update...
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] _motley:
Update: New release on the way

New release coming soon...

Beta 1.6.4 (with motley kernel v3, build 75/wifi & build 76/3G) March 21, 2012

Bluetooth tethering fixes (thanks rmcc and CyanogenMod)

3G tethering fixes (thanks isimobile)

ro.build.id set to IML74K in case any apps require it (Chrome's recent patch makes this not necessary any more)

webkit patch from Google, still testing to see if it helps the random browser freezes.

Upgraded Broadcom wifi driver from stock bcm4330 to bcmdhd 5.90.195.35 (thanks pershoot)

Misc wireless and network patches

There were some issues with the MAC address falling back to the one in the configuration file meaning with the new WiFi driver. That would cause everyone's MAC addreess would be the same. I finally had some time last night to sit down and figure it out. Now that this is fixed, nycbjr should be posting soon.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] varpness:
Did you mean to say this 1.6.4 version was going to be released yesterday? Or has pretty much everything shut down since the camera is not going to get fixed and the official ICS is looming?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] _motley:
The date in those notes mean that it was released for testing yesterday. It has went well thus far and should be released soon.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] varpness:
Oh, I see. Sorry for the confusion.

Drop me a link if you want another tester.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:
Looking forward to install it when released! (very busy weeks lately, pardon my long absence lol)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] poisike:
New release posted!

Should be possible to flash over previous version without data wipe. Just remember to flash gapps again, clear cache and dalvik. Works for me without any problems. If you get strange problems, please make sure you wipe data before you report problems.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Danvad:
Have just downloaded this from link "galaxian.soup.gt7300-beta1.6.4.zip" its the wifi version without 3G ... what to do ...

Edit: the links for 7310 and 7300 files are switched. Download the file named 7310 for the 3G version
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] harry_fine:
I read on a post a few back that the camera is "not getting fixed". Is this true? I've been waiting for the camera to install this ROM. Also the poster suggested the ICS is coming soon. I've not seen anything official that indicates that is happening. What are the sources for that?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] poisike:
Camera probably won't be fixed before we get our hands on a ICE rom from Samsung.

My local samsung representative wrote on their facebook that gt8.9 and gt10.1 will get ICS update in May.

---------- Post added at 08:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:33 PM ----------

Are you sure? You installed it and 3g is not working? If you look in Settings About tablet, whats the Model number?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] apascual89:
Download the wifi one. I believe they mixed them up. I downloaded the wifi one and its the 3g version.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] poisike:
I believe you are correct. Thank god the partition tables on p7300 and p7310 are the same (this is not the case for gt7.7), otherwise this could have ended very badly.

I wrote a email to nycbjr about this, hope he finds time to correct the mistake as soon as possible.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] apascual89:
I just installed the one labeled 3g and can confirm that it's the wifi version. I just picked up my tab and flashed this. In the first couple of minutes playing with this, great work!!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] poisike:
The links should be fixed now.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] docfreed:
This ROM is excellent, but...

two small things on my GT 7310 (WiFi). Superuser force closes when I try to select the settings (from the tool in the upper status bar) and the default screen timeout defaults to one minute every time it goes to sleep.

Otherwise it's a very nice piece of work - thanks to the devs for their devoted hard work.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] NICO1970:
je suis sur galaxian depuis la beta est je vous félicite pour le boulot !

je redécouvre ma tab .

a pars l appareil photo et un léger lag avec go luncher rien a signaler que du bonheur

MERCI
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] chienline:
Galaxian Soup Ice Cream is getting cooler and cooler :cool:

I have the same force close on superuser when clicking the setting button.

But screen timeout setting works just fine here.

The others are working fine so far. I'm curious about the AOKP version but I'll give it a try when the camera is working :)

I guess the difference is just about customize-able GUI isn't it?

Thanks for the working portable hotspot tethering :)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] soup006:
I seem to be having an issue with Wifi. I set the wifi to turn off when the tablet sleeps. It seems to turn back on ok but I then get an authentication error and cannot connect to Wifi again. I have the password saved so I know it isn't just a password issue. If I manually turn off Wifi and then back on, it connects fine. Anyone having this issue?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] SecretAgentKen:
I have the Superuser issues. I also can't open the Market, it closes immediately and it's the old Market, not the Play Market.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] d1gw33d:
You're comparing an alpha build of a non officially released platform to a closed system developed for the simple minded masses. Also Android 3.x was a mess on its own with out Samsung help.

---------- Post added at 05:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:35 PM ----------

I can confirm Exchange working with out issue as well. Including Calendar sync.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] bdfull3r:
he was agreeing with you, an OS developed by the same team that creates the hardware is going to be better then an alpha OS created by Hobbists who didn't think the stock ROM's were sufficient

Besides, It is simple minded, Apple designed iOS so that ANYONE could pick it up and use it right away.

read carefully

There is NOTHING wrong with that. Google took a different approach. Both systems have their merits.

As a note about the ROM, any way to change the boot animation? Not on the ROM, but how i can change it on my tablet? i know the scrolling android name is simple and easy but i like a flashy boot sequence.

All the bugs i found are still known ones

Bugs:

Rotation still kinda wonky, it does the 180 stretched invert again

the task switcher still 90 degree off and stretch

netflix streams the audio but no the images
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] tommrazek01:
I mean, nobody is interested in what you tried to say about the iPad 3. Just a waste of memory

---------- Post added at 09:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:47 PM ----------

Using it as an alarm clock doesnt really make a difference. After killing all tasks and running at 1Ghz, it loses about 8% per night.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jenne1980:
I will test the new alpha 2 soon (with complete data wipe etc.), but I don't expect that it will be better than in any other test (Honeycomb and ICS alpa 1.1). I don't think that I'm doing something different as it was the same problem without any apps installed besides SetCPU (set to interactive). Maybe it's a problem with SetCPU that prevents the device from going into sleep when wifi is activated :confused:

I will make a test with only a fresh installed ICS alpha 2 (without any installed app including SetCPU) and then with SetCPU.

Is it ok to delete the battery state in CWM Recovery? Maybe that could have an effect :confused: (don't think so)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] poisike:
I took some screenshots, maybe nycbjr wants to add some of them in OP?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nycbjr:
Nice shots! yeah I'll toss them in a bit later!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] folkland:
Good work guys no complaints here. The widgets work more smoothly than in the stock launcher. I haven't had any major problems yet and battery life seems good.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] bdfull3r:
my update issues list:

Rotation still kinda wonky, it does the 180 stretched invert again

the task switcher still 90 degree off and stretch

netflix streams the audio but no the images

flash crashes the otherwise impressive browser

*The new feature were miss-spelled words are underlined in red is REALLY limited. Short words like A and i and you seem ok but most of the words are marked as mis-spelled

**Also when i was downloading something from the dropbox app, my tablet froze. i have to hold the power button to force a reboot
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jzuijlek:
I really like this rom, very stable. The only issue's I have is that I love the Swype keyboard from the stock rom. I ported it over, but it needs a license to unlock the swype feature.

And hope you get HW acceleration working soon. Thanks for all the hard work.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] RedMist:
Does anyone else have the problem when every word is marked as a spelling misatke like this sntence
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] bdfull3r:
me, its gets a little annoying, the listed it a couple of posts above you.

Any idea why?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] RedMist:
Haha. Yeah, I started the post but took a long time working out how to do screen shot. Lol

It looks like there is a dictionary missing. It doesn't matter what keyboard you choose or which language.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] loneBoat:
I'm blown away by the quality of this ROM in such a short time (haven't actually used it yet, just going by the stories folks are telling). A couple of the remaining quirks are dealbreakers for me, but as soon as they're ironed out I think I'll give it a spin.

Anywhere I can send a donation? I'd love to throw a few bucks out to the devs!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] bdfull3r:
what he said
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nkrick:
Try registering for Swype beta (at swype.com). I am not sure if they have a beta program for the tablet version of swype or not, but they are always accepting applications. It is how I got swype working in Cyanogenmod on my Captivate. I actually have found that I like the swype beta on my phone better than swype on my tab 8.9 because there are features in the beta missing from the official version.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nannankevin:
Thanks for your hard work.

Is there a way to donote ?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] d1gw33d:
Strange. In alpha1 it didn't work for me either but works great in alpha2.

I did notice that under Accounts & Sync I can't add Facebook. It gives me the option but when I touch it nothing happens.

---------- Post added at 10:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 PM ----------

Have you even owned an iPad? I had an iPad 1 since launch and currently own an iPad2 (the wife's) and I think your expectations are a little too high.

Apple makes great products no doubt but this isn't an appropriate forum for your discussion.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] solarus2011:
This is freaking speedy before OC, but wow. Despite the hiccups here and there that have already been mentioned this is now my daily user. Battery life is good, hasn't crashed yet. I'm not an Exchange user so I don;t have that problem. Great work guys. Looking forward to more of it.

My only complaint - and its really the Samsung app not working unless Wiz is there issue, not the ROM itself, is that I can no longer use Allshare. Anyone with advice on the best alternative - preferably an app optimized for tablets.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:
Yeah yeah people come on, STAY ON TOPIC and stop talking about a product that isn't supported here. The devs need feedback on the ROM, not any other product.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Nvrenough:
Wow this is running great
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] poisike:
I don't use Superuser, but i remember i have seen this issue reported for many ICS roms. If i remember correctly then this was fixed with the app update. Have you updated the Superuser app? Maybe motley included the older one.

About Market problem. Mine updated to latest version automatically and i don't have any problems with it. Try to clear market cache and data.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] SecretAgentKen:
Well I couldn't update SU without Market. :) Regardless, I installed the version here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1549707 and now its fine. I also uninstalled it and the Market reupdated so it must have been something weird. SU won't update because it seems chainsdd's site is down.

I have a P7300

100% fully charged

Installed the AOSP 1.6.4 3G last night.

Disabled wifi and 3G - turned the device off

Haven't used it since

Now after 19 hours - battery is 55%

Battery:

Mobile standby is 61%

Android OS 31%

Table idle 6%

Screen 6%

Is this a drain issue or is it normal.

..
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:
Here's the mirror I got from the Google Web Cache in the meantime. You'll have to manually flash that through CWMR. Just another alternative.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] gonova:
This team is working hard and great since day 1. ;)

I just switched from CM9 to Galaxian Soup 1.6.4 for a day. So far I don't see any differences except one thing disappointing me so much. Or maybe I just can't find it......

I can't see any setting to "Long Press Back Button to close app". This is so necessary as all of our ICS browser suddenly become unresponsive sometime. This annoying problem also exists on CM9. So I have to force it to close in a convenient way.

Can someone please tell me where is the Long-Press-Back option ??

Thank you very much.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:
That's a CM9 function. You can just press the Recent Apps button located right after the Home button, swipe left/right the browser or any app to close it. To me, it's the same function.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Cyber Warrior:
Just a quick update on my browser freeze problem (links would stop working)... changed my cpu max speed from 1400 to 1200 and haven't had a freeze since. Also got rid of SetCPU.

This was on the first build... getting ready to flash to the newest. :)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] poisike:
The browser freeze problem should be fixed on the latest 1.6.4 release. At least i haven't seen it freeze yet.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Danvad:
My P7300 still freezes after installing 1.6.4 - to make it stop freeze I had to choose Settings-Advanced-and set Enable plug ins to On demand ... if it is set to Always On my browser still freezes.

I think its Adobe flash that makes the trouble ....

wifi issues

Hi

I have had wifi issues since the new update, wifi disconnects after some time and it says problem with authentification, i have added a logcat. Hope this can be solved.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] chriscsh:
just try to install the new 1.6.4 with full wipe

everything seem work very nice :D

only one thing

anybody use the ES file explorer? i got the FC

try new install from google play , or restore from the previous ROM :(
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Danvad:
Battery consumption.

P7300 AOSP 1.6.4

Battery level 69% after 1 day 1 hour of use ... that's okay

Then enabled Airplane mode which turned off 3G and WiFi.

Then 8 hours not using the tablet - battery level down to 50% (-19%)

The battery diagram shows huge consumption when mobile network signal is disabled.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] poisike:
There is a problem with Airplane mode, it doesn't turn off the radio correctly when mobile data is connected, we know about this. When mobile data is disconnected it seems to turn off radio correctly.

Problem is that we basically use a hack to make HC radio work with ICS at all. When we get a baseband that is compatible with ICS then it should fix the problem.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:
I experienced some minor issues when setting up Wi-Fi for the first time, but no issues so far. The only issue is Gapps related, as Gtalk crashes when I press the mic icon in the app.

Standby battery drain?

Not using it overnight, about 12 hours, mine dropped about 50%. Is that normal? I didn't really notice it on the last release. :confused:
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Danvad:
Answer in Post #793
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] reycingef9:
It says it has a problem when in airplane mode. Mine isn't . So are you saying it doesn't matter what mode its in that it will have this drain?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Danvad:
Sorry My bad - I have minimal battery consumption on AOSP if I have WiFi and 3G turned on, and leave the tablet in standby mode, during the night.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] reycingef9:
hmmm interesting... have to check my apps.. Thanks!

I have wiped data and now it seems like wifi is working as it should.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] bdfull3r:
I had an issue with Google apps not working after flashing without a data wipe. A cache and dalvik cache rewipe appeared to to fix the issue. Thought i would make a note of it.

All of the bugs in this new version haven't changed from previous version. Rotation still has the black screen for a second. Wifi is still slower then any HC ROM I flash back to. Maps launches compulsively. The ROM itself is still smooth and my first choice for 8.9 Ice cream sandwich
