Thanks!

After a bit of a bump the first time around I reflashed stock, rooted, cmw9 recovery, wipe all , reset, instal ROM and everything works fine.

Except - USB keyboard - used to work, doesn't anymore. USB mouse does though....

Wifi worked fine on 5ghz networks first time around. I applied the fix and now 2.4ghz work as well, which is great as I can now tether to my HTC again :good:

I changed the launcher to Apex as it gets rid of the margins at the top and bottom of the screens in both portrait and landscape - more real estate :good:

Bluetooth is a nice to have but not essential right now for me.

It is much smoother than HC.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] rayjr13:
I feel so irritated I'm on a plane and want to try this so badly. I was waiting on the wifi fix really hoping for that mobile data soon. Has an i815 user tried the IR BLASTER?

Any other device specific items to test for? I know the CM9 dev is for all the models but the 815 has its nuances I'm sure.

Can't try it today need HBO go or movies for this weeks flights
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] jonamafun:
Have you mounted an NTFS formatted internal micro SD? Which kernel are you running? I can't seem to get it to work =(

It's as if CM9 doesn't see the card at all.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ricardoporto:
Awesome ROM!

I had to use the Wifi fix. No issues at all.

Locerra, thank you for your hard work. I appreciated that.

Best regards!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ricep:
REALLY really really thank you, you saved my afternoon! :D

Thanks for the tremendous job locerra.

I seem to have an issue playing back mkv videos though, at least from my NAS via wifi. Tried like 4 different players, really looks like its missing acceleration.

So I made some more tests, file stored locally, with mx player and sound sw decode seems to work.

Thank you very much! Wifi is working with hotfix, the performance is amazing!

Thank you very much, locerra!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
No worries, I understand, I've definitely had projects that I have been that way with :).

It would be nice to use common tree with the galaxys2 devices, but I'm not sure how realistic that is at this point in time. I think we should have a functional tree for the tablets first, so that we can figure out what exactly is in common (since there are some differences, such as the wifi chipset).

Yup, looks like a different driver, although the changes that will have to be made will probably be similar (if not identical).
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] aorth:
True. I'll fork and commit my changes NAO (errr, after I get home from work)!

I guess Tab 7 Plus uses a Melfas touchscreen. I know I've seen patches for that around somewhere... I guess ICS expects different events from the touchscreen or something?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] poisike:
If Galaxy tab 7 Plus uses Melfas tourchscreen controller then check our github https://github.com/Galaxian-Soup
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] aorth:
Hmm, yeah I saw that patch... but it doesn't compile on our sources (Samsung 2.6.36 Honeycomb sources)...

Edit: Meh, lemme see I can port it real quick. The basic idea is that we need to send pressure now too?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] aorth:
Ok, I finally fixed the touch screen. Google's touch screen guidelines for ICS was a big help to understand wtf was required. I ended up porting something between both ohanar and poisike's fixes:

https://github.com/alanorth/samsung-kernel-p6200/commit/9571ea442a39976a79c471d650b625c8b26a0460

Now this ICS is waaaay less annoying to test. ;)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sk806:
Verizon 7.7 is (supposedly) due to be updated this month....if that is indeed the case, will get it and port....in the meantime, setting up my git repo with mac clone app (lovely!). I am afraid of what Samsung did to ICS....
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
OP has been significantly updated.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] emprize:
Finally we got something, good work, hope all developers can work it out together
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] dazman22:
you guys are doing great stuff! Hopefully if some sort of official ics for the 7.7 gets leaked or released you can get an RC out quickly. Otherwise keep doing what you're doing, no doubt the cm9 developers will pick up your work and eventually officially support it but for now you're our only hope for ICS on this ripper tablet!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] speedofheat:
Congratulations on the progress made so far !
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Super-S:
Awesome...

ICS will make the 7.7 much better...

Thx for the work!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] stroughtonsmith:
Works great! You'd almost never know there was no GPU acceleration. Can't wait for WiFi
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] faridaizuddin:
I can't wait!

At last we are near to CM9 and hopefully porting process will happen sooner than later! ;)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
I wouldn't necessarily say it is close, there as still some significant things that might take awhile to fix (audio for instance looks like it could potentially be involved).
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] dcervi:
Galaxy Note leaked ICS rom available. Maybe we could grab some drivers from it?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
Maybe... currently I'm only relying on libraries from the stock rom, and I would rather keep it that way. Unfortunately Samsung messed with audio on our devices in a different way than they did with the galaxys2, despite having the same hardware (I haven't really looked at the note stuff, so I can't speak to that).

I've also looked into using teamhacksung's kernel source or alternatively the galaxys2 ics kernel source, but neither work for our device (at least yet).
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] maconsultant:
So glad to see progress on this as i have been having a hard time building an ICS rom for the 6800. I will follow this thread daily now.. many thanks for your time and effort on this.. if you guys need any donations please let me/us know, id be glad to make a donation..

I will install this to test on my P6800 once wifi works. That is the only deal breaker for me. I can live without sound and the others.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] emprize:
without phone function and 3g network?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sbkoh-xda:
Yea. I am not using the phone function or 3g right now. I could have bought the wifi-only P6810 but my provider does not sell it.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] IanAG:
I have just flashed this to my P6810 and unfortunately the official HDMI dongle does not work. Neither does the keyboard dock or the USB adapter.

Thanks OP.

Just flashed to my 32 gig 6810 and it's running smoother than ever.

I needed the wifi hotfix, but it worked without a hitch.

An excellent rom which finally makes this tablet useable, thanks
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ricardoporto:
Hi guys,

Is it possible to format SDCARD (the internal one) before CM9 install?

I made a clean install (factory reset) and noticed that some folders of stock HC still there.

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] faridaizuddin:
If u use CWM then files from HC will still existed there except if u make a factory reset from original OS setting with caution of all pics, musics and data in your tablet will be erased. Then that is what can be called clean reset.. :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] jonamafun:
Cheers buddy. Yeah I tried all the other apps and none worked - they all have similar names lol. I did remember that thread but took a while to find it. That app is the only one that seems to work!

Question - does your micro SD show up in the System Settings under Storage?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] fraeone:
Hey I also wanted to call out that I got excellent standby battery life since installing this last night.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ricardoporto:
Thanks man, I'll do that!

Regards!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Max11:
Here my first impression:

-amazing speed in every sense!

-wifi is stable and connects very fast.

-battery drain is great! (I had some issues with stock ICS)

Minor flaws:

-occasionally no hardware-acceleration with DicePlayer. It stops suddenly during watching, but works again after restart of app.

-wifi won't turn off in standby.

-burned in circle problem is back. Some say, Samsung overcome the problem with ICS (I have never tested it with ICS). But now it is clearly visible in an absolutely dark room and in my opinion worse than in JB.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ZhenMing:
I had random FC in setting page on my P6800.

Btw, will there be Wi-Fi hotspot tethering in this ROM? I kind of missing it...

@Locerra,

Some feedback on the latest build (15/07/2012) -

ROM UI - spot on. very smooth and 'snappy' (bare in mind i came from the stock HC Rom)

WIFI - pretty much works without any hiccups (after the hotfix). I only had 1 disconnection. after the 1st reboot of the device its been flawless.

hardware acc'. - videos play smoothly just like before with players like BS, DICE, Mobo etc. BUT i noticed in youtube and in the picture gallery, the screen jumps up and down when you touch the screen to bring up the soft buttons/notification bar (kind of like it is moving out of the way). nothing major, but it is annoying. I'm not sure if it is ICS or the build itself.

Battery life - unchanged. i.e. very good.

overall - A FANTASTIC build. and I just found out that Sammy dropped the official rom for the wifi version. woot woot! :-) lets hope this brings some improvements/efficiencies!

BIG thanks! for bringing new life to the tab 7.7.

Keep the Passion!

peace
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] levky:
first off i want to say thanks for all the hard work you have put into getting cm9 working for us. i am running a P6810 with July 15 build of CM9.

i am an absolute noob, so i am not even sure if i am doing the right thing or not. the attached file is the output of the logcat that I got AFTER the hotfix. not sure if this helps.

before the hotfix, i could not get it to connect to wifi at all. after applying the hot fix, i did managed to get wifi to connect for a brief moment and then it would not work anymore.

thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Shaady:
Flashed last night and running great...no issues after the wi-fi fix.

Great ROM!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] faridaizuddin:
Whoever still having WiFi connectivity problem, please factory reset first and then flash the hotfix after done wiping.

I'd done this way to overcome WiFi problem..
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] biopsin:
Edit: New build includes extra permissions.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
For people who can't use accessories -- I haven't even looked into them, way too many other issues. I have added android.hardware.usb.accessory permissions, and dock settings (which should be in the next build), but other than that I haven't really looked into what needs to be done (probably some kernel configuration stuff).

FYI, I now have a Wifi network that I can't connect to without the hotfix, so I have something to debug on.

I've spent a lot of the last few days cleaning up the device trees, as I plan on submitting the P6200, P6210, P6800, and P6810 for official status as soon as I can resolve one last issue.

For the I815 users, I'm trying to resolve the battery drain + heat from the modem -- getting mobile data working is a much bigger endeavor that may not even be possible to fix until the ICS release for the tab.

Just an FYI, I'm heading out for a week and a half camping trip at the end of the week, so expect me to disappear for awhile :).
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] JemaKnight:
You've done a fantastic job, locerra. Thank you. I hadn't properly used my p6810 for months until this. Now, I plan to use it pretty much every day.

I think I speak for everyone using this when I say; you've done more than create a CyanogenMod9 for our devices, you've genuinely given them worth again where Samsung could not.

I can't wait to see what you can do with Jelly Bean.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] faridaizuddin:
Submitting which mean we will get nightly builds after that? (Sorry, I didn't ask for ETA just wonder if that's so..)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] fatbarstewar:
I've just bunged CM9 on my Note, factory reset/wipe didn't scare me as it was using the GB kernel. I'd like to put this on my rooted 7.7 (4.0.4) but surely the factory reset/wipe stage will put me at risk of the brick bug? Or am I missing something?

I could do a Nandroid backup but I thought that had its own pitfalls relating to the emmc bug?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] IanAG:
Hi locerra, the feedback on the accessories wasn't meant to be a complaint in any way, purely feedback to the question and for anyone else inquiring.

Thanks for the fantastic work you have done with this, with the wifi fix I really cannot fault it (not actually bothered too much about accessories). With the old stock HC build I felt like the device was around 50% value for money (paid £360 for it in the UK) but now I am happy with the purchase.

I haven't the experience/knowledge to do anything myself but if/when you do look at the accessories again I would be happy to help in terms of capturing logs by flashing between stock and CM9 if that would be any use.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] steveathome:
Put on P6810 ICS last night and is pretty good. But within an hour missed this CM9 ROM. Downgraded back to HC and installed this back. Have not been a fan of these Roms on my phones but on the tablet is sensational! :D

@locerra

Hi,

First of all, I would like to thank you for this great rom. With wifi hotfix it is great for daily use. I've got although two issues. First one: I know that you haven’t time for it yet and it’s a low priority for you but for me it’s rather important to have working HDMI adapter (original Samsung accessory). I’ve tried with non modified version of your rom and also added android.hardware.usb.accessory.xml file with correct permissions. Both cases it didn’t work. I’m attaching logcat from both tries.

The second issue is most serious. I’ve set wifi to be turn on in standby only when it is plugged in. The problem is that it doesn’t work. After 22h of having my tablet unplugged and almost not using it I’ve 35% battery left. CPU Spy shows that deep sleep is only 15% and 200MHz is 54%. BetterBatteryStats is showing that wifi was on for all 22h so that’s why I suspect this is causing high battery drain. On HC I had my tablet in standby for more than 2 weeks and it has still got some juice.

Other than that this is great rom and keep up good work.

Good luck
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Max11:
It seems wifi is not turning of at all (in any mode) or with a few hour delay after going in standby.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] aletheus:
is there any way to apply the wifi-hotfix.zip manually?

can I install it with Odin?

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] carlo67:
did you installed the CM9 on your p6800? if yes. does everything is working?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] aletheus:
There is one catch: wifi requires a patch, located on pg 73 of this thread. But I ran into a problem so order is very important.

1) download ICS, cm9, cwm 5.5x, root.zip, gapps, wifi-hotfix.zip

Have root.zip and wifi-hotfix on EXTERNAL SD.

If you don't have gsm /hspa service (mobile data) then you can paint yourself into a corner.

2) flash ICS, with Odin or mobile Odin per instructions in flashing stock firmware tutorial.

This is where I did a factory/data reset from STOCK recovery.

3)Using stock recovery flash CM9--this is where you want to ensure that you have mobile data if using mobile odin--

4) From stock recovery apply zip from SD card and choose root.zip. flash

5) From Odin or mobile Odin flash cwm 5.5x

6) From cwm flash gapps and wifi-hotfix

You MUST have cwm to flash the wifi-hotfix because it is unsigned, so stock recovery will reject it,

Did I leave anything out anybody?

--edit: added step per suggestion below.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Gilbot:
You forgot the step that involves flashing CM9 ;)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
One last build

Before I disappear for a week and a half, I figured I would post one last build (which includes at least one highly desired fix).

Also, I just submitted to make the P68x0 an official build, so hopefully this is the last build you guys will get from me :) .

The I815 still has a couple major issues, among which includes no mobile data. Because of this, the I815 will remain unofficial for the time being.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] aletheus:
So can you just flash updated build on top of previous builds? Or do you go through the whole process again?

I had no idea what cm9 was until i installed it.... damn, i'm totally in awe at what this did for tablet performance!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
You can. If you had gapps installed, you will have to reflash those as well. If you experience issues, then do a wipe/factory reset and retest before reporting them.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] fastest:
Just wondering, anyone else having issue with some apps not showing in market? eg. Switchpro not showing at all.

Can flashed over rooted stock honeycomb?....anyone knows?...tq
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] aletheus:
Not just CM9. CM9 goes on top of ICS, NOT HC.... maybe i'm wrong. Please correct me.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] furius:
Yes, you can flash CM9 on top of any Honeycomb ROM. In that case you need full wipe so you will lose all your apps and settings, but you will keep internal sdcard data, so you can easily restore it using tools like titanium backup...

Maybe flashing ICS trough Odin and than flash CM9 you will save your current apps, but I am not sure, I didn't try this way...

I have tried to update my tab to official 4.0.4 or CM9. The WiFi on Both versions does have issue.

-> Official 4.0.4 makes the WiFi on and off. Sometimes it got the connection but it will disconnect.

-> CM9 can make connection. However the signal is very weak and also got disconnect.

The Both versions can't find 802.11a singal

I also found that the MAC address changed after install official 4.04 or CM9. Is that weird?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] JemaKnight:
CM9 is built from AOSP sources, so it doesn't require any pre-existing software on the tablet other than CWM Recovery (which locerra has a version of as well).

Thanks locerra for the latest build!!

Still needed WiFi hotfix though as after freshly flashed I couldn't connect to my working place WiFi.

I'm pretty sure that full wipe using CWM 5.5.0.4 (by locerra) doesn't reset internal SD: I flashed CM9 coming from HC (with full wipe) and my internal sdcard data where already there when l booted into ICS ...

I instead lost my internal sdcard (and CWM of course) when I flashed stock ICS trough Odin over CM9...
