CM9 and Kies

Okay, in a bit of a fix here. Started using my GT as my primary phone as well (what can I say, I've fallen in love with it again since CM9 :)), but have no way of syncing my old contacts (currently in outlook) with my device. Kies wouldn't recognize it (I suppose Kies only works with Samsung ROMS), and found no way of syncing contacts over Kies Air.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy Tab General] hsrussel:
Were not your contacts backed up via Google? Then you need only to sync over the air.

Another way could be to load your contacts on another phone with Samsung rom via kies and then export the contacts to sdcard as .vcf file and then copying this vcf file to the tab and run.
[Galaxy Tab General] fdfdrere:
Mine is Telstra P1000T too. I don't have this problem. Did you strictly follow the overcome instruction? AFAIK, there are many steps, rather than just 'flash' it.

Better Camera

guys,

do we have any chance to use a better photocamera, than CM9 Camera?

- I loved Samsung Camera App and it's probably the best.

- I've seen that HumberOS ROM has a Camera which is a little better than the one that we have on the nightly build.

- right now I am using "Camera Zoom FX".

Having stated this, the quesion is:

Would it be possible to get Samsung Camera App workin on this ROM? :rolleyes: Did any of you try if it's possible?
[Galaxy Tab General] hsrussel:
If you mean the stock camera (gingerbread), I don't think it is possible. in fact i tried earlier (when the rom was less mature and the camera took grey pictures) and it would not even install.
[Galaxy Tab General] maxadamo:
What about extracting the camera app from any 4.0.3 ROM present in sammobile?

... I know.... it probably won're work, but é can give it a try.

And second I did never try whether is possible to mount the files contained in the ROM image files from Sammobile.
[Galaxy Tab General] alroger:
Yes you can mount the files. But it won't work, cause the Samsung apps depend on Samsung libraries that we do not have in AOSP.

Guys, i have a bluetooth keyboard that works when i write in english, but dont when i change it to the alternative language (Arabic) even if i changes the soft keyboard to Arabic too

can you help me sort it out
[Galaxy Tab General] SiccaGm:
Hi All!!!

Is there any way to have status bar on the top of the screen?

And is there any way to remove soft buttons.

Like in SGS builds

Thank you
[Galaxy Tab General] _Derk_:
Yes and yes :-)

Status bar on top you have with density 161 and up.

Soft buttons you can switch off in system -> tablet tweaks.

Hi,

I just recently went to ICS and i'm currently running:

GT-P1000

Kernel: 2.6.35.7 SGT7-ICS-Te4M #20120410

9.0.0-RC0-GalaxyTab-HumberOS

With GO Launcer HD (nice tablet version).

Everything works fine except GPS, now i read that in later build GPS does work, so i need to update, but to which version?

the ones from here: http://get.cm/?device=p1&type=nightly

or these: http://cafe-ti.blog.br/1524~sgt7-p1000-android-ics-cm9-mtd.html

will it be ok to "overwrite" with recovery the current version (do not want to re-install everything again.)?

Thanks in advance!

Camera Options

Hi,

I've been using the nightly builds for some time and everything works quite well.

I only have a little problem with the camera...

I can't figure out how to get to the camera settings...

I'm using the latest build "update-cm-9-20120507-NIGHTLY-p1-signed" and I've used all the previous versions and the camera settings didn't work.

I've also restocked once and still no camera settings.

Any ideas?

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab General] alroger:
No, just flash it!
[Galaxy Tab General] grukko:
Wait aren't the partition sizes different? If he flashes the mtd version he may not have enough space in certain partitions unless I'm mistaken.
[Galaxy Tab General] spudley:
Baseband shows P1000XXJPZ

So, I found the JM2 modem.bin and flashed it -- it says it's installed, and then I reboot - still seeing "JPZ" on baseband -- and still having my problem of dropping to GPRS/EDGE data when I drive out of my own city.

Is my modem flashing not working for some reason? Any other ideas I could try? (I've checked my access point names and network operators for correct settings there).
[Galaxy Tab General] alroger:
modem flash in MTD

That must be it. As tipped before... just copy modem.bin to /radio. The old modem flash doesn't work anymore. It should show your JM2 as baseband in a few seconds.. or try rebooting.

It's possible, I'll give it a test on my tab tonight. Will post results tomorrow if I can figure it out.

The battery life is not too good on this thing. From some scattered reading people seemed to have done things to improve the battery life. Is there a master list of things to do somewhere? Reading through thousands of pages is bit of a challenge
[Galaxy Tab General] lon_:
Another question about modem and CM9 (latest nightly or 20120505 version from alroger):

Some time ago (not really sure when) I lost mobile connectivity. Settings -> About tablet -> Status show:

* Network: "N Telenor"

* Signal strength: "-89 dBm 12 asu"

* Mobile network type: "HSDPA:9"

* Service state: "Out of service"

* Roaming: "Roaming"

* Mobile network state: "Disconnected"

I have a registered MDN, IMEI and IMEI SV. I'm really having a hard time understanding why I'm not able to connect to my mobile network... Any suggestions on how to fix? Or suggestions on how to debug this?

I've got P1000XXJPZ registered as my "Baseband version".

Located in Norway.
[Galaxy Tab General] maxadamo:
100 MHZ now working

thanks for fixing the 100 mhz issue.

Anyway.... I am not really sure, but I can confirm the "wake lag" issue at 100 mhz.

It was not working properly but I have put the minimum back to 200 mhz and it works fine.

--> that's strange anyway. I have no problems with deep-sleep, but - it seems - I have problems with 100 mhz.

Does deep sleep works differently from smartasv2 frequency changer?

Amendment: I suspect there is also some issue with the latest nightly build, 8th May. Sometime it gets stuck.....
[Galaxy Tab General] AtlanticRebel:
So, yes, it was just a resolution issue, I jumped to 240 and all works great, looks great, and performs well too. Flashing 20120508 now, will post if any problems. I totally n00b'ed on that, it was covered before, but as resolution, not Trebuchet.

Now, if only I could figure out why my tab is no longer displaying the cell network name, just the MNC 302610, which is Bell.

Guys...... anything....even a pointer or a hint
[Galaxy Tab General] RED ZMAN:
Pointer, invincible means that you cannot be hurt or killed. I think you meant invisible.
[Galaxy Tab General] grukko:
I can see why you want the status bar on top now. When I'm typing, I keep triggering the status bar actions by accident when hitting the space bar or any other bottom row keys. If there was more demand for putting the bar on top in tablet mode, hopefully one of the devs can make it happen. I realize this is probably not an easy mod though.
[Galaxy Tab General] w1ll1m:
On the latest build, no calls and text, but I have an internet connection. Any possible fix, other than modem flash since I've already done that.
[Galaxy Tab General] priyana:
what was the the previous built you were on that has text and call as well as internet.

And are you on T-mobile network using T849 tab?

Last ROM

Hi all..

My feedbacks about thr ROM 2012-50-08..

In general the ROM has a lot of improves e tweaks, but..

It is slow for me.

Notification bar can’t hide.

About the battery drain..i don't know yet..
[Galaxy Tab General] maxadamo:
Guys, there are two ROMs with the same data: 2012-50-08

You should keep the newest. The other one is really slow.

BTW, in the momenti I am writing http://get.cm is down....

I think this is a Trebuchet issue and not a specific ROM issue.

Probably trebuchet is not yet a stable release, and it's missing few features.

In this case I suppose we should file bugs/suggestions somewhere else.

yesterday ROM had issue with processes using lot of memory/cpu. I found bluetoothd running like crazy.
[Galaxy Tab General] a-vista:
Righ now i'm using the ROM from here ..
[Galaxy Tab General] lon_:
Just FYI:

Didn't know much about IMEI and stuff, but realized (after some googling) that my IMEI was reset to a default value, so the problem was due to lost IMEI. Luckily it seemed like my old /efs/nv_data.bin (and md5-file) was backed up to /sdcard/backup/efs/.

Solution in my case was:

* install SSH server

* log in as root

* (took a backup of /efs/nv_data.bin* just in case)

* cp /sdcard/backup/efs/nv_data.bin* /efs/.

* chown radio.radio /efs/nv_data.bin*

* chmod 700 /efs/nv_data.bin*

* reboot tab

Now finally I've got my mobile network connectivity back again.
[Galaxy Tab General] w1ll1m:
The last fully working one was the nightly on the 03052012 build. The ones after caused loss of calls and texts. I'm on the GSM tablet in the UK.
[Galaxy Tab General] RED ZMAN:
Never got an answer to this.

This morning, my device wasn't off, but as soon as it unlocked via Tasker, it shut off. I've had no problems in the past, until the 05 update.
[Galaxy Tab General] alroger:
I don't know about trebuchet nor 240 crashes, you gotta follow the news as they come out. Mostly @sbradymobile that works on trebuchet. Didn't see anyone with this simptom.

I have no idea about car stuff... is it supposed to unlock automatically? I don't even use lockscreen myself.

Wifi was sleeping automatically on builds 20120427 to 20120505 for me, even if I had it set to keep ALWAYS ON in settings. This looks fixed in 20120508, no more unwanted wifi sleeping... that's probably why you didn't get your podcasts.

Yes, always try the latest if you have problems.. thats what we do in hopes of new and better stuff.

Shuting off all by itself? That's some app or config that you have. Unwanted reboots and shutoffs often com from UnverVolting and OverClocking...

When in doubt, wipe wipe RESTOCK wipe wipe wipe everything clean.

---------- Post added at 02:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:58 PM ----------

I also noted that Quadrant gives me around 1600 now, in 1.2GHz, while I used to get around 2150 before the 20120508 build. I don't know what the means, tecnically, but my tab is FAST and SMOOTH... I play videos all the time and some AngryBirds Space too... all good and fast.
[Galaxy Tab General] RED ZMAN:
I do follow the news, every post for Weeks now...

He posted a fix zip for trebuchet, a few days ago, and it works great, as I posted right afterwards. I was wanting to know if this is now included or do I have to keep flashing it too, like the phantom voicemail fix.

I haven't upgraded, like I said above, because of reported lag issues, but if they is a new build today I will.

I an not undervolting it or overclocking it.

This is why I asked if I should logcat it, as I had none if the issues before, and wiped it all.

Still fully useable, and awesome, just trying to work out recently added kinks.
[Galaxy Tab General] alroger:
Try it and tell us. The idea is sbradymobile shared a trebuchet.zip for those anctious to try it. In theory as he is working on trebuchet, it's also being updated in the repo. So all tweaks and fixes should be in the next day's build! If not, let us know.

I haven't felt any lag.. on the contratry, fast and smooth. Everyone that comented on lag later on said that a reboot, wiping or changing something fixed it... so it's not actually a ROM problem. Could it be trebuchet? I don't use it, so... BTW, todays build doesn't have anything new.. expect a few translations, maybe? I'm already using it.. just like yesterdays build.
[Galaxy Tab General] _Derk_:
I re-booted, wiped, re-flashed, re-wiped, re-booted and so on but it stayed unchanged. The main issue is that the system is preferred working with the slowest processing speed not scaling up when requested.

Governor remained unchanged to last ROM, but also changing the governor doesn't fix the issue, only changing the lowest speed to 600 does...

Okay coming from Overcome it keeps crashing when

checking status of mdt/bml

and then endless bootloops.

6th time ive gone to restock to overcome to this issue.

Any help?
[Galaxy Tab General] priyana:
from overcome CWM, when you flash CM9 ICS, it will check for bml/mtd,

then it will reboot to its own CWM. (You will notice it is slightly different from Overcome's CWM)

That is not really a boot loop.

Next step is then to choose to flash the ICS again.

This time it goes through with install.

Did you just gave up after the "apparent boot loop" or you really get a never ending back to CWM for the subsequent flash of ICS?
[Galaxy Tab General] w1ll1m:
I came from CM9 but had an issue so had to restock.

It never boots into it's CM9 CWM. Waitied 5 minutes, and it kept looping. So turned it off and then back to stock, to overcome.
[Galaxy Tab General] priyana:
you should deliberately boot into CWM and reflash it again. anyway, maybe others can chime in.
[Galaxy Tab General] w1ll1m:
This worked.

Perhaps this should be in the boot procedure?

But i really do appreciate your help.

Nice one.
[Galaxy Tab General] doomerxx:
yeah thnx for correcting my typo, anything better ??
[Galaxy Tab General] maxadamo:

Sorry doomerxx but that was funny enough :-)

Of course it's not your fault. Those words have a latin root, and they can lead you to make some confusion.... most probably "vulgaris" latin (sort of latin spoken from the massses). In other words, those words are usually much more close to itailan and spanish than latin.

Literally, in my mother language, is:

vincere = to win

invincibile = cannot be won

and, as a consequence, in English it should have to be unwinnable :D but they took the Vulgar Latin word as it was.

invincibile = invincible

while in Latin it is:

to win = vincere (like italian)

invincible = invictum

p.s.: ... but it looks like "unwinnable" does exist on some english dictionary online.... but that's not my mother language. Therefore I give up...

Does anyone know why can't I get to the camera options? the buttons simply don't work but the camera itself works very well. I can't disable flash or anything.
[Galaxy Tab General] maxadamo:
I'm not pretty sure, but in my opinion these are App related issues. Let's try some other application from the market.

Camera Zoom FX is a paid app.

Tried to flash from update-cm-9-20120508-NIGHTLY-p1-signed.zip to update-20120512-cm-9.0.0-RC0-p1-UNOFFICIAL-signed.zip, which resulted in to a black screen.

Only did a cache wipe no complete format.

I only got a black screen as a result, this happened before and i could use Droid@screen to see the screen and to go into recovery to reflash again. But now my p1000 creates a timeout so cannot read the screen anymore.

Only download mode works, and it can find the phone in Odin.

I did make a backup with titanium before the flash (=Good) but left the files on the internal drive (= bad)

How can i fix this? A restock from odin will wipe the internal card but at first i would need the titanium data! is this still possible?
