It's not that I don't want to make my changes public, I was just so shocked to find your repo after I had labored over mine for like 2 weeks (and after it finally compiled, it didn't boot)! I only spent ~1 hour porting your stuff to mine, and I was just SO geared towards getting it booting that I even skipped dinner lastnight. I'll fork your repos and push my changes up soon.

Also, my current galaxytab7p device tree was built on the assumption I'd be sharing code with the galaxys2-common stuff (seeing as we're all Exynos 4210 + Mali 400), and my kernel is based on the mainline 3.3 branch (used on the Origen board I think). It never booted, but I didn't get to see why because it didn't get past the Samsung logo. For what it's worth, the Note is also using the galaxys2-common stuff, as are is the US version of the Galaxy S2.

I'm using your kernel with my defconfig, but I still had touch issues. I saw the touch fix in your repo, maybe the Tab 7+ uses a different touch screen? I dunno, I didn't troubleshoot after that.

Ignore the forum Nazi's. Ask any questions that you wish, just use good judgement.

The devs are big boys and choose to answer or not answer themselves. Unfortunatley we have a few bad apples that have self apointed themselved wanna be mods and troll the forums 24/7 looking for newbie posts to rant about

Back on topic, we should see some activity once samsung decides to release the ics source which could be awhile yet.

I am surprised that there has not been more honeycomb activity. I might take that up and build my own tweaked hc rom with alittle ics flavor added.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] maconsultant:
I would agree on using good judgement.. But obviously the previous poster didn't follow his own suggestion.

There's no need to start the foolishness of name calling to anyone on the forums.. we all want the same thing. Which is to see this project progress. So why not focus on the common goal rather than the foolishness. Ganja man was nice enough to clean the thread of the foolishness. why start it again..?

Honestly this is only a forum on the internet. Everyone will continue breathing regardless of what anyone thinks of anyone..

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] funkyblue04:
I'm just hoping they release the source the same time as ICS. IMO Source is more important so we can get stock CM9 :D
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] onicrom:
don't suppose you could provide more details on how to build? i've built my own roms before, but only for google dev devices (nexus s, gnexus).

i'd like to start working on the port too.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] funkyblue04:
No one can do much until ICS source is released.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] aorth:
Cool, I'd say you should start by setting up your build environment, then checking out the CyanogenMod repository (see: "how to get sources"). Then you can use my local_manifest.xml to check out all the required repositories (P6xx0 device trees, kernel, and proprietary blobs).

If you're serious about helping, I can write something more thorough...

Not true. There's still work which can be done with the kernel sources we do have (the smdk4210 kernel used by all CM9 Exynos4 devices). We need to look into updating the graphics drivers to get rid of compositing glitches (some hints could be gleaned from the Galaxy Note's update3 source release). Also, there are some tablet-specific issues with CyanogenMod itself, like how the phone application always goes to landscape, etc. :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] funkyblue04:
Is there mostly bug free wifi drivers available though?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
That is incomplete for the Tab 7.7. You will also need to add

<project name="ohanar/android_vendor_samsung_p6800" path="vendor/samsung/p6800" remote="github" revision="ics" />
<project name="ohanar/android_vendor_samsung_p6810" path="vendor/samsung/p6810" remote="github" revision="ics" />

Also you don't need the Atheros tree, it is now in upstream CM (https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_hardware_atheros_wlan).

Maybe, I didn't have enough time with the n7000 sources to see if they could be used.

Compiling for P6200

Ok, well I just completed a compile for P6200 with the following:

cd ~/android/CM9
export CYANOGEN_NIGHTLY=1
export USE_CCACHE=1
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cm_p6200-userdebug
make clobber
mka bacon

This assumes you've done the following:

set up build environment (compilers, dependencies, system packages, etc), see the Google Android Source website for generic ICS requirements

clone CM ICS repo (repo init ...), check the CyanogenMod wiki, or Teamhacksung's wiki for basic instructions on getting repo and cloning the repository

added my local_manifest.xml to your CM9/.repo/

P6800 is 99% the same process. :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] yanfox:
why 99% for 6800 ?

so it's 98,99% the same for 6810 ?

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Entropy512:
Same reason wifi is busted in CM...

The wifi driver and wpa_supplicant are dual-licensed GPL and BSD by Atheros. (Most wifi drivers are strictly GPL-only). This gave Samsung an excuse to withhold wifi driver source code.

No source code for a critical component like wifi = MAJOR pain in the ass. I was considering a Tab 7 Plus myself until I saw that Samsung had pulled that stunt. That turned a lot of developers away from these devices.

In general, Honeycomb tabs didn't see much userspace development, just kernel development. Even the Tab 10.1 didn't have too many people developing alternate firmwares - partly because HC was reasonably decent to begin with and none of the manufacturers were particularly aggressive with skinning efforts. That left the kernel as a place to tweak - but lack of source for wifi drivers makes many kernel developers go "yuck, bad device, do not want!"
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] stefanamlappi:

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] funkyblue04:
It's always the bloody wifi drivers. Same issue with the Touchpad. Sigh. Will they release wifi drivers when ICS comes out will be the question!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
For anyone who was considering building from source, just beware that the screen glitch is going to plague you like no other. The alpha2 build I posted had a modification to the kernel to stop it from appearing most of the time, however, I never actually pushed those changes since they it was a pretty big hack (I don't have them anymore since I tossed them after making the alpha2 build, in the effort of producing an actual fix for the issue, which I never found).

CM9 Development to date

I m using my Tab 7.7 on daily bases so I m a bit hesitant putting CM9 onto my Tab yet as it says in the initial post that there are a few things still don't work like WiFi and bluetooth...

Since, a lot of testers on the forum are using it, I would like to know if the major bugs are sorted out and the ROM is at least usable, coz I m really not happy with the 3.2 like many other users here...

Any input on this regard will be highly appreciated
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] stefanamlappi:

People, please keep this thread clean. This is not a thread about when the tablet is getting ICS from samsung, there is already a thread about that in the general section.

This thread is only for bug reports, updates from me, and development info pertaining to Cyanogenmod. With all of these crap posts, it makes it very hard to find the relevant posts, so please stop posting here, and go post somewhere else (unless you have a feature request, in which case, don't post, this is no where near stable enough for me or any developer working on the tab to work on features when a lot of hardware isn't working properly).

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] deani77:
Not working on mine. I can't search for any network...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
When I built Alpha 2, there was a bug in Cyanogenmod (not specific to any device), that broke data. I'm hoping to be able to get back to developing within the week, and first thing I plan to do is make a new build, which should hopefully fix data and bluetooth (as well as bring in all the changes that have been going on with Cyanogenmod during the last month).
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] funkyblue04:
Does data mean WIFI? :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] edan1979:

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] yuyang226:
Thanks for the update, hope we can see the alpha3 soon. Currently 3G not working on alpha2 with my P6800, I have to use alpha 1 for now.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] deani77:
Did alpha 1 have working 3G data? You still have link for Alpha 1?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] furius:
I hope we can see soon a build with WiFi fully working. At least Bluetooth, so I probably can tether my nexus data connection through Bluetooth... not as efficient as WiFi but better than nothing.

Locerra, do you think that we can expect a Jelly Bean porting soon or later? I mean: since JB is a minor update to ICS, I suppose hardware drivers should be the same , so JB porting shouldn't be too different. Am I wrong?

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus running JB
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
Me too, but everything I throw at it fails :(.

Aorth and I (deviceless) fixed Bluetooth for the Tab 7+, and considering we have the exact same Bluetooth chip (and share a common device tree), it should just work once I make a new build. The main thing holding up a new build is that I need to reapply the hack for fixing the graphic issues, but I tossed the hack while trying to work on a real fix for them. Then of course my tab broke, so I can't really re-figure out the hack until I get a replacement (which I'm hoping to do this week).

That is the hope, but we haven't gotten any source from Google yet, so we don't really know. Regardless, I hope to make this an official CM10 device (we probably could have been official with CM9 if we could have figured out a fix for the wifi issues).
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] t12lve:
yes and the update will be deployed (i truly hope) this month
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] wintermute000:
When we get the official update, would you be able to port the binary blob driver for wifi, or is CM9 strictly against use of closed blobs?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] t12lve:
doesnt care about tw. i need ics or i burn this beautiful tab :@
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] vegaman:
Most phones rely on binary drivers for some things, but the kernel side of the code wasn't released for wifi on our tab. This is because the wifi drivers used are under a different licence which meant Samsung didn't have to release the code. Hopefully they're using the newer drivers for ICS though, which are GPL (I believe), so they will have to release the source.

CyanogenMod isn't against binary blobs per se, they just don't redistribute them with the source code, you have to pull them off a device if you want to make a build.

update no wipe :D
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] admiez:
I've been using alpha 2 for a long time now. Even with all the issues I preferred it to samsung's HC version. I've gotten so used to the unadulterated ICS that I'm thinking twice about whether to jump onto the official ICS upgrade or just wait for better versions of this rom.

I have sort of working 3G data with alpha 2, which doesn't have the graphics issues of alpha 1, plus has working HW acceleration. On the flip side, wifi doesn't work, it worked in alpha 1 if sitting very close to the access point, e.g. tethering from your phone.

3G data works fine only once it's working. Sometimes it won't connect to any cellular network and you need to reboot 1-3 times, or even turn it off and then back on. If the connection is active, it will stop working once the screen is turned off (standby mode) and require a reboot to get it back. That doesn't apply if the tab is plugged in to the power adapter. It also has issues entering or leaving airplane mode, it will only work as per the setting that was set coming from a fresh reboot. So as locerra said, all these issues might be related to the bugs at the time in CM9.

Just wanted to share my experience running alpha 2, if you can live without wifi, bt and a few other things, with the hope that they'll eventually be fixed, alpha 2 is pretty much usable.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] yuyang226:
Yes alpha1 has working 3g data. The links for old builds including alpha1 are available in the first page of this thread.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] furius:
I know that the waiting for official P6810 ICS shouldn't be too long (finger crossed) :confused:

but I was curious to understand how difficult should be to adapt the P6800 ICS to fit the P6810 ... or, as alternative, extract wifi driver from P6800 build and port it to CM9 ...

I can't wait!!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] vegaman:
I'm not certain of the differences between the P6800 and P6810 with respect to ROMs. It could be possible to make some changes and get it working on the P6810, we'll have to wait and see though.

In terms of wifi, we should be able to get CM9 working by using the kernel from the official ICS and changing the ramdisk to suit AOSP. Any features that rely on kernel changes wouldn't work though. And it's likely that the source release isn't far off anyway.

And verizon will tie up their android 4 rollout for months. Especially with the problems we've been reporting...(i mean if manufacturers and carriers arent trolling these sites, they're idiots...locerra will get an AOSP/CM9-10 build out for everyone eventually.

Start asking "how can i help" instead of "this is really overdue"... $50??? How much of your day's wage is that? It's half of my day's wage. Really this guy has nearly done all the work on this, and you're treating him like a bossy client who's put down $50 on a $5000-$10000 job.

I'm guessing CM9/10 will stay alpha 2 for a while, as he'll need to calibrate the work he's done so far for ICS. You want to see JB on here?? Lets get another developer from the Note forum a tablet and maybe locerra can have some help.
