adobe flash

Is anyone experiencing any problems with adobe flash? I installed it and tried restarting the system but I still cannot get any flash videos to load or even show up on the web page.
[Galaxy Tab General] yellowshed:
compile zImage

I haven't been able to get the boot.img to boot after flashing with heimdall. The flash worked, but it got stuck not booting, and others have reported this problem. Then it's a bit of a struggle to re-load the Te4m ROM and kernel. I believe others have now had success in compiling the zImage with some tweaks to the makefile paths etc. I believe you still have to download/snc a git repo of the initramfs and maybe the kernel. I'm going to try again tonight.

Out of interest, the make time after a clean and repo sync is about half an hour for me - quad core Intel with 8Gb ram on Kubuntu 64bit.
[Galaxy Tab General] _Derk_:
Simpler yes, but $29.95 vs. $5.-

The standard Samsung-USB cable you already have and the other 2 components are not limited to Samsung usage ;)

Bye,

Derk
[Galaxy Tab General] yellowshed:
Looks like there were a couple of things missing to complete the compile. I had no lzma or schedtool installed. Also the link pointing to using the initramfs in another thread (in the p1_def_config file in the kernel/samsung/p1/arch/arm/configs dir)

CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="/home/tjasper/cm9/kernel/samsung/p1/include/config/initramfs"

and the link pointing out the edit to make the toolchain work (not quite correct for me, I needed

CROSS_COMPILE	?= ../../../prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/arm-eabi-

in the Makefile in the kernel/samsung/p1 dir has got me a zImage!!!

I hope to boot it soon.....

PS slimdizzys 16th build has the standard camera app working for me.... Yay
[Galaxy Tab General] slimdizzy:
I don't think Flash for Android is supported on ICS yet. Not just this ROM. Could be wrong but pretty sure that is the case.

---------- Post added at 01:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:20 AM ----------

repo sync now and the zip is bootable without the need for a zImage. That build time is about what it should be for your system. :D
[Galaxy Tab General] espionage724:
There was an update to flash about 2 days ago that mentions:

I thought I installed flash before on ICS and it worked fine, but I'll try it again in a few minutes

Edit: Works fine for me (as in, it can playback videos and sound on YouTube and another site on the default Browser, video has a tiny bit of lag though, but bearable) no FC or anything like that though
[Galaxy Tab General] slimdizzy:
That part about update for supported devices which our Tab is not. It will work soon I imagine. Does the site in question not offer HTML5 video instead if there is now flash detected?
[Galaxy Tab General] espionage724:
The other site was flash only
[Galaxy Tab General] FC1032:
Can't seem to find this anywhere, but is the original keyboard dock working with this ROM? I'm on the fence to get one, but I don't quite like how its only portrait...
[Galaxy Tab General] yellowshed:
Sorry, but not for me yet. I got a zip file compiled with the kernel definitely being built but when loaded, it just fell back over into a wrong resolution recovery. Any ideas on what might be missing? I did check my boot.img size against the one in your build and it was a noticeable size smaller - 6 vs 9Mb, I think. So something is missing. I take it there is a build log I can rummage through to see what didn't go through. Will have a look tonight.

Thanks by the way for your uploads. They're great and usable! Thanks to the Te4m for giving us this and getting the camera working too......
[Galaxy Tab General] slimdizzy:
Did you do a "./build.sh clean" first? Also wipe the kernel dir away and redo repo sync just to make sure (if you got the bandwidth approx 700 MB).

my final boot.img was approx 10.x MB in size

You could always just swap the boot.img file from mine to your if you have any customizations done. Sound like you dont have the initramfs being loaded though and thats why its not the same size.

I would just go BT Keyboard as landscape is just to good to give up for easy typing. That's me though. Just think BT KB and the TV Out and BOOM ... ICS Desktop on your freakin 50" *****ES ... sorry got excited there for a sec. ;)
[Galaxy Tab General] adi6262:
I am using slim's 16th Feb build . Front camera produces 4 images . Is that what you guys mean by working? This was working since a long time . Or I am the only one with this problem?
[Galaxy Tab General] louser:
All,

Anyone able to sync their Facebook account to their contacts? I can select add account under the sync and accounts setting. Once I select Facebook it closes and goes back to settings. Any ideas?

Lou
[Galaxy Tab General] adi6262:
I can confirm this . No Facebook sync .
[Galaxy Tab General] espionage724:
Facebook Sync was removed on later versions of the app due to some issue with Google (Facebook contacts were able to be synced to the device, but you couldn't take them off or something, and this broke Google's policy)
[Galaxy Tab General] joeyxl:
Oh yes, a screenshot. This looks sexy.

Im so excited!
[Galaxy Tab General] FC1032:
Yea, especially with ICS, landscape is so much more usable :D Apps with 2 panels (is that what they are called?) are so much more space efficient than previous apps in GB

I was really hoping to find that someone would make a BT keyboard like this for our 7inch tablets. I mean, I personally think that 7inch tablets need this more than a 10.1, cause at least for 10.1, you have a bigger screen to type on.

Something like the zagg, but made of white plastic should go well with the white back of our tab... Who knows, someone can put together a dock that has USB host. Since we'd need that external power, we can hide it in the base of the dock to weight it down and not topple.

I'm probably thinking too far here, but I'm just a little said there aren't any "cooler" and more functional docks like the zagg...
[Galaxy Tab General] Stilm:
Closest thing I found would be this:

But I'm not sure that USB cable connection would work on our tab :/

---------- Post added at 02:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 AM ----------

For me, Friendcaster syncs without any issues, at least last time I checked anyway. Also, I like the UI on this app better since it's more tab friendly :P Facebook app looks like their android/ios mobile website and I actually like the website better lol
[Galaxy Tab General] slimdizzy:
You're thinking is almost with me. Keep the tablet by the TV and get like a Logitech mini dinovo or any other htpc kb. Tablet as htpc.? My A500 works awesome as just that.

Does front camera produce 4 images or its working as it should be?
[Galaxy Tab General] ronak.super:
Front camera Its working properly u can take photo with it from ur stock camera app but cm9 camera didn't have good feature so I replaced it with ics alpha camera apk it works very well

U can set up face lock also but it doesn't recognize us guess it could be just app tweaking which would make it work

Hit thanks
[Galaxy Tab General] Sarsippius:
Has anyone successfully restored a nandroid backup made with CM9 and Humberos' recovery? I have Slim's 15th Feb build on the wife's tab and tried to restore a backup after playing around with lcd density settings, after the splash screen it just came up with a completely garbled screen.

Maybe at this point in development no one's bothering with backups and I imagine it's not a major priority.
[Galaxy Tab General] Stilm:
Any chance you can upload the ics alpha camera apk?
[Galaxy Tab General] ronak.super:
Ics camera apk attached:D:D

>I just follow your instruccions to get a right boot.img but when i did the repo sync i get this error message.

error: device/samsung/galaxytab/: sgt7/device_samsung_galaxytab checkout aa8d8f22e6082a0896ccc084919d7f323a213e44
[Galaxy Tab General] _Derk_:
Before buying the SGT I had a cheap 10" tab and used this kind of keyboard when I was blogging.

So for long text entrxy it's what you need, but just for using the tab you constantly have to switch from touch-screen where normally you hold it and typing, where it is placed on the surface.

Don't expect too much from a keyboard solution unless for pure text needs ;)

Slide to unlock is old , show tongue to unlock !!

Face unlock works for me ! :D

Works perfectly in portrait mode , in landscape the cam is to the left /right so get errors some times .
[Galaxy Tab General] yellowshed:
slim,

only just had a chance to play... Did what you said and removerd the kernel dir and re-sync'd. Then had to remember to alter the Makefile to point to the prebuilt toolchain. Then also the p1_cm9_defconfig to point to the initramfs directory.

Then did a ./scripts/build.sh clean followed by a ./scripts/build.sh p1 eng

Still no change in boot.img size, nor do I have a zImage. Think I might make a zImage first in the kernel directory and then try again...

Just found that my INITRAMFS setting was pointing too high up the tree ;) so that might have been it....
[Galaxy Tab General] mudcruzr:
Is anyone else having problems with the "all-in-one" builds? i.e. the single file with boot.img in them instead of zImage.

If I flash either slim's or spike's rom images, my tab just won't boot, but if I flash the rom image and then a kernel all is OK. My concern is that I will fall behind with kernel updates if I have to keep using the kernel from the 15th.

Spike's post on page 23 seems to indicate it should be working now

- mud
[Galaxy Tab General] _Derk_:
It seems that your SGT is not P1000 dor which the slim-builds are made.

If you need a different kernes, that the AIO builds can't work for you unless someone builds them also for the other versions ;)

It's a genuine UK gt-p1000 and it boots and runs perfectly as long as I flash a (p1000) kernel after the (boot.img) rom.

[Galaxy Tab General] ableeker:
I have exactly the same problems building the kernel. I hope somebody can explain how to build a valid boot.img
[Galaxy Tab General] sgsoneofthefirst:
Face unlock doesent work for me..........i dont know why but the pics from the frontcam are double........any idea?????
[Galaxy Tab General] ableeker:
Installing only the ROM and gapps won't allow the Tab to boot, installing a zImage will.
[Galaxy Tab General] ableeker:
USB under Windows is misbehaving on my Tab, it will see a new device, SAMSUNG_android, and you can eject the device, but it will not appear as a drive. I did turn on storage on the Tab. Oddly enough Linux works just fine. I seem to remember that USB was working on earlier builds.
[Galaxy Tab General] yellowshed:
I found that if I just make a symbolic link from /opt to the toolchain as mentioned elsewhere, then I don't need to edit any files, and it seems as if the initramfs list is correctly identified in the p1_cm9_defconfig.

So I've re-done the repo sync, and now it won't compile :( Have a problem of declaration in the camera somewhere. Hoping that I'll finally get this to boot.

I can definitely say that the slims build on the 16th installed and booted fine on my tab.
[Galaxy Tab General] espionage724:
In short: Front Camera is broken

Technical: Has to do with Camera Lib files?

---------- Post added at 12:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:34 AM ----------

I was having a similar issue when I reinstalled Windows. I had to reinstall Kies (I installed it then uninstalled it shortly after) and it fixed it

---------- Post added at 12:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:35 AM ----------

I had no problem. I restocked, flashed Hyperdroid's kernel, then ran the all-in-one (slim's Feb 16th build), rebooted back to CWM, flashed gapps, wiped caches, and won
[Galaxy Tab General] ableeker:
That looked promising. I flashed Overlook's kernel, then installed my one ROM from CWM, and booted back to CWM. It started in Te4m's CWM, that was the promising part! I flashed gapps, wiped caches, but after that it doesn't boot anymore, but hangs at the Galaxy Tab Samsung screen. Wonder why it doesn't boot?
[Galaxy Tab General] ronak.super:
I guess u forgot to flash kernel zip flash it would work perfect

Nope front camera is working fine for me from slim 16 or 17th

[Galaxy Tab General] ionman:
I have installed the CM9 build from 02/02/2012 on my at&t Galaxy Tab, and I cannot for the life of me set the APN to get any of the phone/3G stuff working. I enter all the APN info, hit the menu soft-key, then hit save and it disappears! Am I missing something here?
[Galaxy Tab General] ronak.super:
Set apn and reboot

Hit thanks
[Galaxy Tab General] _Derk_:
From a different tab where I had the same behaviour I know, that disappearing APN info points to incorrect APN data! Due to incorrects the data just is ignored.

BTW... On the SGT I never had to enter APN data - with different sims used...

Bye,

Derk
[Galaxy Tab General] mudcruzr:
The new builds have the kernel already in them in the form of a boot.img, we shouldn't need to flash the kernel separately.

- mud

---------- Post added at 09:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:24 AM ----------

So, here I go with:

a) Odin restock to gb-stock-safe-v5 and reboot to system

b) Odin flash OC v4.0.0 kernel and reboot

c) Let sexy voice convert to ext

d) reboot to CWM & flash slim's 16th build

e) reboot to system

f) reboot to CWM and flash gapps

g) wipe cache & dalvik & reboot

I'm sure I've done exactly that before but I'm going to give it another go. Steps a-d go OK but step e hangs at the Samsung Galaxy Tab screen.

I shall report back in about an hour.

- mud
[Galaxy Tab General] PriMarius:
wait fellow,

no reboot after d) ..until g)
[Galaxy Tab General] mudcruzr:
Woohoo!

Well I'll be damned! That worked perfectly!

Thinking about it, in the past I've always combined steps d, e and f together, in other words I used to flash gapps immediately after the rom without rebooting in between in the same CWM session.

Could flashing gapps without letting the system establish itself first somehow effect boot?

Anyhoo - I'm up to date - many thanks all.

- mud

---------- Post added at 10:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:25 AM ----------

No, no, no, that's what I've done in the past and it has always failed. This time with the reboots it worked perfectly.

I haven't done nightlies before (on any device to be exact...) so which build is the most "complete"? I'm on CM9, but its the 02-01-12 one , and that's "old"

From what I've been reading...

* Most builds now have the rear camera working via 3rd party apps

* HW acceleration is added

* general fixes to make wifi faster, overall faster...

So any nightly would have those fixed?
[Galaxy Tab General] mudcruzr:
The only nightlies I know of are alrogers ones at

I've just installed this mornings build.

[Galaxy Tab General] ionman:
Unfortunately that doesn't work. The APN never appears in the list after I hit save. If I immediately reboot and come back the list is still empty.

Strange. I tried all kinds of APN settings (and ones that I know have worked on other phones). When you say you didn't have to enter the APN on your tab, are you on AT&T or another carrier?

Is there someplace I can set APN data in a file, rather than through the settings UI? I am suspecting this is just a silly UI bug.

Also, I didn't need to flash any specific modem file, do I?
[Galaxy Tab General] mudcruzr:
Here's a new one for you. Since updating to ICS my Samsung Keyboard-Dock has defaulted to a US keymap (not the on-screen k/b - it's OK)

Does anyone know where the keymap or keymap setting is for it? I'd love to have it set back to UK, but I don't know where to look.

for us sprint guys jt over at root wiki just uploaded v5. I still am gonna pull his kernel and install this rom and see any differences. I would post a link but on my evo.
[Galaxy Tab General] _Derk_:
The reboot seems to be needed to get the file system correctly mounted.

It is said that mounting /data from CWM before flashing gapps solves this.

[Galaxy Tab General] ionman:
I found the solution to my problem. I may not have had a working modem from the ROM that I upgraded from, so I flashed the modem here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=847273

Everything is working now. I can send SMS, place calls, and browse on 3G. The APN was picked up automatically after flashing the new modem.

Hope this helps someone.
[Galaxy Tab General] joeyxl:
Just a fyi, beta cm9 camera doesn't fix camera issues on slims 16th build with latest kernel
[Galaxy Tab General] espionage724:
The front camera issue... is this only because of camera lib files by some chance? I would doubt it would be this easy of a fix, but what about just using camera lib files from another ROM?

Only problem I can see with that is if the lib files are OS-specific (as in, can't take GB lib files and use them on ICS).
[Galaxy Tab General] Executor@1:
USB Host?

I am still interested, actually whether USB Host functions. Some say it goes, but many say it does not go. However, one does not say, with which components.

I will know:

- which adapter/cable (possibly with picture/name)

- which kernel/rom

- screenshot

Thx.
[Galaxy Tab General] FC1032:
I haven't tried myself, but from what I've observed, in order for it to function you need the same setup as this. That goes for ANY usb device, self powered or not. You cannot just use a samsung usb adapter, it will not work

have no idea which ROM or kernel, but any based on the CM9 one should be working
[Galaxy Tab General] Executor@1:
Thanks, but it is not of use me/us (SGT user) a lot if one has not tested it himself, or only somewhere has read.

I use e.g. this OTG cable http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B006WZ808Q, but nothing works. I have tryed all tree constellations from these site http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1450298.
[Galaxy Tab General] lon_:
Been lurking for a while on the dev section, and trying out different versions of ICS. In the beginning ICS built by TE4M, but later other builds (based on the git repos of TE4M) since a new build has not been compiled and made available from humberos. The one I'm running right now is from slimdizzy (Feb 16 build).

One thing that seems to have been a problem (at least for me) is roaming between different wireless networks. It doesn't look like the current builds are able to reconnect to another wireless network I've previously been connected to. Selecting "scan" doesn't seem to give any results, but I'm given a notification that wireless networks are available. I always have to disable wifi, enable wifi and then I'm able to connect.

I don't think I've seen anyone else mentioning this issue. Known issue? (I've been to quiet to be able to post in the dev section, so I'm trying this thread.)

Other than that I must say that these builds have given me new hope regarding this rather old device. Keep on truckin'! ;-)

Front camera appears to work fine on today's build :) (i'm on slimdizzy's 2/20 build) No corrupted image and it can take pictures on native camera app just fine

Can't get facial unlock to work though (it can't detect my face). This could be my fault due to lighting reasons though

Can't record video on native camera app on front camera either (although I don't know if this is an actual restriction, or if it's just not possible. Recording never starts when I press the button)

Rear camera doesn't take pictures on native camera app still, so Silent Camera or etc is still needed for that. Records video just fine though on native app. Can playback recorded video on MX Video Player Hardware-decoded just fine too (tiny green bar still exists on top left, no big deal)
[Galaxy Tab General] sbradymobile:
For the front camera you can set the frameRate to 15 for camera 1 in media_profiles.xml.
[Galaxy Tab General] espionage724:
K that fixed it :)

The video appears pretty corrupted at times on MX Video Player though when recorded from front cam.

When playing back video from rear cam, it's corrupted for the 1st 1-2 seconds, but afterwards it appears fine.

Both were played back on HW decoding

Just want to confirm something from the first post of the TE4M's thread on Cm9 in the dev. thread; Cdesai mentions that Cm9 will be complete by the 30th of February. I'm assuming its really the 29th of feb as there is no 30th of feb.

Is this the te4m's or is this cyanogen mod's completion date?

It might depend on the setting but it's not generalized not working when dpi are changed as I've set mine to 161 and can change front to back and return.
