Which flavor?

So I wasn't in love with the launcher - pretty confining. I installed Nova launcher and reset up my desktop. I have to say with the better launcher this rom is pretty awesome. I have to take it home and compare it to my Team DRH gtab but it seems to been less prone to hanging than the DRH version if that is possible. I was also able to update Chrome to the newest version and it still runs and that seems a lot more responsive. I especially like the larger resolution so that I don't have to squint at everything to read it. I still would like to understand the technical differences between this rom and DRH rom. If they use the same kernel then it must be in the rom itself - so what makes them so different?
[G Tablet Android Development] wroark:
I've had no issues with DRH or this ROM until I tried to use the V6 version.

I got a boot-loop after flashing it.

I did a full wipe of everything (again) and tried to flash again, same result.

No biggy, 1.5 without v6 is plenty nice but if it can get faster, I would like to try it out. Any suggestions?
[G Tablet Android Development] rmarinella:
Out of curiousity, do you have CWM 5.5.0.4 beta 15 installed? Had some of the problems you describe with CWM 5.5.0.4 beta 6 before updating CWM, wiping and reflashing.
[G Tablet Android Development] nobe1976:
UPDATE...... THIS THING FLYS WITH SUPERCHARGERV6....

Much thanks to the OP for adding it and making it simple to add. Tried it with with both leaded and Super UL at 512mb as the script suggested and left it with Super UL I beleive option 7. Super cool.
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Technial differences:

1. This ROM is ODEXed. TeamDRH is deodexed(search for the difference)

2. This ROM is pure AOSP. Team DRH uses Cyanogenmod framework(I could be wrong)

3. This ROM doesn't have all the Settings/Options that the DRH has.

There could be more. Credit goes out to Team DRH cause this ROM wouldn't be possible without them.
[G Tablet Android Development] enigma0456:
So if I understand correctly Odex would be analogous to a compiled program and deodexed would be comparable to an interpreted program? Compiled is more compact and runs faster but cannot be modified without decompiling it. Interpreted means you can tweak a line of code and then just type run allowing for lots of easy modding? Would that be a way of looking at it?

Pure ASOP vs. Cyanogen Framework. I'm not that clear on frameworks - do they impact features or performance or possibly both? Why did you choose one over the other?

Settings and options - nice I suppose but I can live with less features and more zoom.

I did a test tonight - brought home my work tablet running this rom and my home tablet running DRH rom. Set them side by side on the table and opened the same app on both at the same time. In most cases this one beat the DRH version but the difference was so slight as to be almost unnoticeable. I tried games, browser, mail, youtube, etc. I would say that this rom seems "smoother" but that is very subjective. It seems as though things open up sooner and load it bit slower whereas DRH takes longer to load and then explodes into running. At the end of the day they net out to about the same speed as far as I can tell. I expected to try this rom and then go back to DRH but I think I'm going to keep one of each and continue to compare the two. It will be interesting to see what happens when the next DRH version comes out. Since they are writing a new kernel I assume that you will have a new version shortly after as well. I can't tell you how cool it is two have to cutting edge roms being developed for the g-tablet when everyone else's tablets are still running honeycomb or older. Thanks for the work. I wonder what the g-tab devs will do when jellybean is released ha-ha
[G Tablet Android Development] wroark:
I have CWM 4.0.1.5
[G Tablet Android Development] rmarinella:
That's the issue! You MUST update! When you update you need to repartition the internal sd card, see the TeamDRH op for instructions. This allows for 250mb for the system to install to. You've maxed out the system folder with the older version of cwm.
[G Tablet Android Development] wroark:
When I get home I'll check out the system partition size, I did start with bl 1.2 and T&T 5549 (or whatever the latest release was) so I skipped re-flashing the T&T ROM that DRH has in their instructions (it was clear I should, but I was impatient :-) ). Since the DRH ICS flashed successfully I assumed my system partition was big enough.

I did happen to upgrade CWM to 5.5.0.4 before I saw your reply (as I was typing my version in, I realized it was a bit dated) and re-partitioned, wiped, re-installed V6 version with the same boot-loop issue. SO, I'm thinking your right, the v6 code was enough to max out the system partition.
[G Tablet Android Development] WeekendsR2Short:
I've only been running this ROM for a couple of days but it is a FANTASTIC effort! Keep up with the great work!!! The only things I have discovered that you might want to hear about is that I'm still having to connect the USB thru CWM (5.5.0.4). It also doesn't seem to approve of Barnical but Open Garden has no problem whatsoever. Occassionally, my Gtab will rock between sleep & wake after it has gone into that mode by itself OR when I do it myself (tried wiping Dalvick & Permissions again to no avail). None of these is a huge deal but I thought you might like to know.

**Did a complete re-wipe & reflashed the ROM. The "sleep-wake" issue is now a thing of the past!
[G Tablet Android Development] cgingermany:
5504

Right, I thought the same but I ended up transfering my files to PC then following the CWM install on DRH page and voila!!! Their posted NVFlash (to my understanding), is to format and clean your complete system then while installing 5504 only, no actual image is being flasfhd. It might seem a bit time consuming but its really not. Plus, it is well worth it once you finish because you should have no issues with your tablet afterwards.
[G Tablet Android Development] kozmo2k4:
First of all, thank you for this great ROM and ALL your contributions to the Android community (I too have SPH-D710).

Just flashed v1.5(V6 Supercharged) over v1.5 with cache wipes and it is running rock solid, fast and smooth.

Couple of things I've noticed : from the "pull up" menu (swipe up clock) and select Settings icon, the WiFi toggle is missing; the Airplane Mode and others are there.

In /system/app, I noticed MusicFX app, but don't see it in app drawer or in Sound setting options. The reason I noticed that is that when I plugged in my headphones, the sound was extremely loud and I was looking for a way to adjust it without changing the main volume.

Not a deal breaker, by anu means, just an observation.

Keep up the great work!

[G Tablet Android Development] nobe1976:
You need to have CWM 5504 DRH version that is only avaible on there tread.

It will be a NVflash file located in the word "file" in there "HOW TO INSTALL" section.

Have to say that everything matches finally. I think I found a new daily driver.:cool:
[G Tablet Android Development] wroark:
Nope, still a boot loop after installing the "file" (DRH nvflash of cwm 5.5.0.4.

And then installing v6 version of 1.5. Non v6 still works great though, might be my imagination but it seems to be a little faster and smoother...
[G Tablet Android Development] cgingermany:
Not to be funny but, maaaannnnnnnn, rock that puppy then! There aren't any deep changes to the ROM itself, simply an addition of the V6 files (to my understanding) and how to activate it.
[G Tablet Android Development] lartomar2002:
Can I install this rom over TeamDRH 1.2 or do I have to do the wipe partion/factory reset?
[G Tablet Android Development] cgingermany:
I believe you have to do a full wipe and partition.
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
No you need to wipe/factory reset
[G Tablet Android Development] rmarinella:
TeamDRH is going to have a new kernel soon. tjohnsonjr, do you think we can just flash the kernel when it hits? Maybe with Nvflash?
[G Tablet Android Development] cgingermany:
Hey TJ, which settings did you use to get supercharger running smooth?
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
We will see when the kernel comes out.
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
What do you mean? Are you troubles with running the script?
[G Tablet Android Development] cgingermany:
I tried using the terminal emulator but it sent me to the trouble script and it's telling me to use script manager. Is this how you got it to work as well?
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
I used the terminal. What I did is in the 1st post
[G Tablet Android Development] cgingermany:
jajajajajaja Roger that, I got it going brother. Thank you sir!!
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Glad to hear that

HBO GO

Hi all - I know that HBO GO works on ICS, but it doesn't work on this build. Does anyone know what is causing that? Is it a resolution issue? If so, is there a way to change the res on the fly?

I have the 160 dpi version loaded. Before loading the 120, I'd like to make sure that it actually works.

Thanks!
[G Tablet Android Development] JDM-Bb:
Wow this is a great rom, I've been using it for 3days now and I have not had any fc. The only problem that I have wich by the way its not a big deal but I thought I should let you all know. I can't install dre beats .zip from the dre beats.apk . It worked fine with gingerbread and froyo roms. Anyway great work dude
[G Tablet Android Development] trehouse:
Any slowdowns or other issues making it only for checking out? I realize it may be beta.
[G Tablet Android Development] nobe1976:
Dre. Beats zip is only compatible with Gingerbread based ROMS, supprised it even works on Froyo. Till someone ports it to be compatible with 4.0.4 then we are stuck with just standard DSP manager.

---------- Post added at 01:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:47 PM ----------

Been running this build for a week now and haven't seen any slowdowns as you say since the OP added the V6SuperCharge script in the build. You have to run V6SuperCharger yourself, instructions in OP, but once that is done and set its candy and BUTTA.
[G Tablet Android Development] badrsj:
Does the super charger need to be run each time the device is started?

I'm currently considering this ROM if possible.
[G Tablet Android Development] gcarpino:
density?

how do i know which density i want to download?

---------- Post added at 12:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:37 PM ----------

Wiped it multiple times. Could it be something else? I'm trying to download a terminal apk to run the v6SC but my download seems to be stalled??
[G Tablet Android Development] badrsj:
can anyone shed light on the 2 densities available and which one to use.
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
It depends on your preference 160 gives you the bigger icons. Some people prefer the smaller icons(120).
[G Tablet Android Development] badrsj:
Does the density also affect market apps compatibility? If so which one has broader compatibility. Thanks.
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Shouldn't have any issues with either one
[G Tablet Android Development] badrsj:
I got this message add then it did not flash any further. Any ideas, I shut it all off and will have to resume. I was using the older recovery the orange colored 3 series. Thanks.
[G Tablet Android Development] badrsj:
More details as seen above the device was formatted, wiped, permissions fixed prior to flash and the recovery is 3028.
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
I use the same recovery. That message is normal. If it doesn't finish installing then try upgrading the recovery
[G Tablet Android Development] badrsj:
How long does the flash take, I aborted the flash 15 after the error as nothing had progressed.

I've fine read on this, does not need any special partitions just the standard 2048/0 right?

thanks for your time.
[G Tablet Android Development] kdelisle:
Hbo go fix

*~*~*~*~*~*~

HA! In looking around XDA, I found that a workaround fixes this issue and I tested it and it works. Make sure that you have a recent app that you've used. Open up hbo go - you'll get the message. Then, click on the recent apps icon. If you go back to HBO GO and wait a few seconds, the message will disappear and you can use the app. YAY!!!!
[G Tablet Android Development] badrsj:
The 120 version shows smaller icons, liken that to people that like windows desktops set to higher resolutions and smaller icons. These smaller icons do not imho match the size of the tablet. So if you're the person likes those hard to see smaller icons the 120 is yours. Otoh if you'd like to see these easier match the bulk/ size of the tablet then 160 is for you. I hope that helps.
[G Tablet Android Development] badrsj:
My capacitative buttons are not working

I'm running the 160 ROM

Any ideas.

Thanks

Update, buttons working, don't know why had stopped.

Is there a fix for the lock screen so the camera icon does not show up, like in honey comb. I know the camera issue, just wanna hide the icon from the lock screen.
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Not yet. I do want to change it to something else. Glad to see that you got the ROM installed

SuperCharged G-Harmony tab
[G Tablet Android Development] noechelon:
My thanks!

I just want to say thank you for this rom. I have tried several roms on my gtab and this is by far the fastest and smoothest running. The last couple of roms left me discouraged due to multiple freezes and laggy performance . I even started looking for a replacement. I'm running the 160 supercharged and it feels like a new tablet. I can now save my money a little bit longer.

Thanks again to all that contributed.
[G Tablet Android Development] rajeevvp:
It should be possible to use 4.0.1.5 to install ICS.

The system partition is not on the internal SD card; its on the 512 MB NAND flash device which CWM (normally) cannot partition. Read these 2 posts for a background:

SD card on gTablet

Android partitions on gTablet
[G Tablet Android Development] rmarinella:
A lot of good reading that I still need to ponder, but this ROM uses the TeamDRH kernel that exceeds the capacity of the standard 200MB partition as you posted on the other thread. Does 4.0.1.5 format the system partition to 250MB? Will read some more on it tomorrow.
[G Tablet Android Development] rajeevvp:
Those 2 posts have more complete info., but to recap:

1. The kernel sits in a different partition altogether ("boot" AKA LNX) and it's tiny (~ 3 - 4 MB), so it cannot exceed the size of any partition on the NAND. Both ROMs proper, on the other hand, do exceed the size of the default "system" (AKA APP) partition (200MB).

2. Both the "boot" and "system" partitions reside on the 512 MB built-in NAND flash (ie. not on the internal SD card) which CWM does not partition. It does partition SD cards though; and the internal one is what holds both /data and /mnt/sdcard.

3. To expand the "system" partition on the NAND flash, you use nvflash. Look at the *.cfg file in the nvflash zip package. That's where the sizes and locations are defined.
[G Tablet Android Development] nobe1976:
All right been running this ROM for 7 days with the V6SuperCharger running on option 7. Here is my update on how this ROM does.

Battery life improvment: Left the tablet turned on and only in Stanby for 3 days. Used it for almost 3 hrs a day to check email, facebook and the forums and left it in Standby for the rest of the day and night.

Stability improvements are a plus. Only after 6 days of running this rom is where I found it lag on certain apps. Opera Browser for example started to take more time to load up, but after running the "sclean" in the Terminal everything was back to the way it was when running the V6SC on day 1.

So all in all the V6SC addon has made some major improvements on this ROM, but it does need some maintance to run smooth.
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Thanks for reporting back with a detailed description of your experience. It helps me when I start to work a an update.

is there a chance to get this running on my Z-Pad T2?

v6supercharger

I have been trying to get the v6supercharger to work on this build but every time i type in cd sytem/xbin it says "no such file or directory". I have tried two terminal apps (terminal emulator, terminal IDE) What am I doing wrong?:confused:
[G Tablet Android Development] rajeevvp:
There's a typo there. Type (only the bits in bold):

$ [B]cd /system/xbin/[/B]
[G Tablet Android Development] Tibedabeeto:
I tried this "Just got it loaded up and running using DRH touch recovery Beta 15 without any issues. Process taken was booted into Recovery went to mounts and format cache, mount Data then Format Data, mount System then format System, went into Advance Cleared Dalvic Cache, and just to make sure since I don't have anything important on the internal SD I partitioned internal SD 2048/0. Then installed rom and went through the first initial setup. "

I tried to do what is in the OP if it gets stuck in CWR, and still after doing both types of wipes it always boots back into CWR. I am on TEAM DRH beta 15 recovery. Any ideas?

I am on 160 density, also I do get a random offset thing while installing rom at the end. Is that wrong? It changed when I changed internal partition size.
[G Tablet Android Development] Tibedabeeto:
I keep checking this thread during each commercial break of the finals. Go heat!
[G Tablet Android Development] badrsj:
I may have partial answer, the random error message is normal and varies too with partition and with 120 / 160 versions. That does not impede or disable the installation.

One thing i'm not clear on, are you not booting into the ROM and just looping in the clock work recovery beta 15?

When I had that problem (boot looping) I partitioned twice, first 4096/0 then 2048/0. This was after id done wiping to remove residual firmwares. This seemed to break me out of the boot loop.

Thanks
[G Tablet Android Development] Tibedabeeto:
Thanks man will try. And by the way that is my problem booting into cwr and not passing that.
[G Tablet Android Development] Tibedabeeto:
Didn't work, going to start from stock and go back. See if that fixes it.
[G Tablet Android Development] raywaldo:
Great Job!

I just flashed this ROM to replace TeamDRH ROM (v.1.5, large)

I just did a backup; reset to factory; cleared caches & flashed with CWM 5504.

EDIT: the sound did not come up. I tried all the things I could think of and decided:

NVFlash with my guide (http://raywaldo.com/2011/01/nvflash-for-dummies/) & re-flash the zip. Sound now works.

Now, I am just waiting until Android finishes setup and I get my apps back before I report on the quality of the build.

Thanks!
[G Tablet Android Development] rajeevvp:
No need to go back to stock -- there is an easy fix for this.
[G Tablet Android Development] Tibedabeeto:
I ended up flashing sick and going back, that worked. I didn't see this reply until after that. I got it to boot but it seems like wifi crawls any one else experience that?
[G Tablet Android Development] raywaldo:
When you first boot a new ROM, it is always slow. Also, if you use the Android restore, it will auto-download most of your apps from the Play store. That will make it slow.

Tip: in Settings - Developer Options - Never sleep while charging. Then plug it into the charger near your Wifi AP. It will not go into sleep mode - which sometimes slows the Wifi (or stops it with some ROMs).
[G Tablet Android Development] glhturbo:
I noticed this too. I installed this ROM yesterday and it was painfully slow for the first little bit. I left it for a while and came back to it and now it runs normally.
[G Tablet Android Development] lekhwani:
Yeah. WiFi is working a little bit slowly. Also, when it downloads anything from playstore, the progress shown is not fluent. And some microlags are also here and there in apps opening and also while watching hd videos.

Other wise, this Rom has about 90 % less random reboots than drh, which is a major plus. Actually I experienced my only reboot while on high volume and max audio effects while watching videos.

So, essentially much more stable than drh.

Kindly look into this and keep up the good work.
[G Tablet Android Development] Tibedabeeto:
When running v6, are there preferences for what to say yes or no to?
[G Tablet Android Development] abraham.ramirez:
i know i said i would do this a long time ago, and i just tried it today. i tried installing three times and all of them i got offset x0126 if i remember correctly. i never was able to install it successfully.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mancmackem:
Hi all,

Firstly, apologies as I guess this is a common question. I did use the search function in both the general and original development forums first before creating a new thread, but couldn't find the answer I need after 20+ minutes.

The home button has broken on my SII so I need to take it into a repair centre next week. I initially flashed the phone to ICS 4.0.3 LP3 to see if the problem was software related, but this did not resolve the issue with the home button. I did not use LP7 with the things I have read about the sleep of death for the WIFI function.

Please can someone point me in the right direction on how to reset the binary counter using a jig, and if this method will work for the ICS 4.03 LP3 version I've flashed as it is relatively recent? Also, I wouldn't mind doing a wipe then reflash as I did not do this the first time with it being a flash test for the home button issue, so any further information/links would be appreciated. Should the following be ok to get me through the warranty claim: -

- Binary counter reset

- Wipe

- Reflash with ODIN, and would I be ok to use the above LP3 file again or better to go down to an official Gingerbread release?

Thanks for taking the time to read,

MM
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DjeMBeY:
Just turn your phone off, wait few seconds, plug jig into it and all done. After that flash any official ROM made for your country or restore original one (if you backed up) and do Full wipe.

Good luck ;)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
You don't mention any custom ROMs or kernels... if all you did was flash to a Samsung stock version of LP3, then your counter should be still be zero. Counter is displayed when you enter download mode if it is higher than one. Otherwise, it will say "Custom Binary Download: No" with no numbers if your counter is zero.

---------- Post added at 04:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:31 PM ----------

He flashed ICS, so he probably has the new bootloaders, depending on where he got the copy of ICS. Which means there is a very good chance the jig probably won't work.

If his counter has indeed increased, and he stays on ICS, then he can root and use TriangleAway. Otherwise, he can flash the old bootloaders back and use the jig.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mancmackem:
Cheers for the replies.

I've used a custom kernel once for GB, so reckon my counter will be one. I'll get round to this on my day off next Monday.

Thanks again, you can lock the thread if you want.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mancmackem:
Sorry, just read this. I used I9100XWLP3_I9100O2ULP4_I9100XXLPR_HOME.tar.md5 from one of the development forums for I9100 on XDA-Forums. Did not use a kernel as was just flashing to see if the home button was a software issue. Because home wasn't working, I had to use Android SDK to enter download mode and flashed the above with ODIN (in a bit of a panic as I now know i could have used the SDK to enter recovery mode > wipe > flash).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
That package would have included the kernel. So if you want to stay on ICS, then root, (there's a method for ICS that doesn't involve flashing anything) install TriangleAway, run it (to remove triangle and reset counter), unroot, done.
