[HTC Desire S] Finiarel01:
Hi there,

I tried some AOSP ROMs this last weeks, and i have a question : Is there an app which link my contacts like in Sense? This function is very usefull!

Example : In my Google Contacts, I have a John Doe, and his name is John Do on FB. Can i create an only contact with the to, knowing it's the same people?

Thanck you for the answers!
[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
On ics it does it automatically for some but need to manually link them for some...

Edit a contact and select join from menu...

Sent from a Desire S waiting for Kernel 3. WAKE UP HTC!!!!
[HTC Desire S] Finiarel01:
Thank you very Much! Does it work with FB contacts? I hears that the ISC contacts apps doesn't inclued FB contacts... Is that true?
[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
Not sure, I don't use Facebook.

I use friendcaster and it does the job of syncing high res images pretty well.

Strange errors in first post..

"Check out the ROM Feature list here." points to .png that contains only one word "Downloads"

Link in "Changelog" section goes to aokp.com (not aokp.co)

In "Downloads" section link is given as aokp.cp (not aokp.co)

"Donate to Jonathan Grigg" is not a link - just plain text

And both download links point to one file( seems to be a 3g version)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] tommrazek01:
JonathanGrigg's link seems to be broken. Otherwise solved
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] solarus2011:
Great news guys. Thanks for your hard work...Downloading now.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] SiL3nTKiLL:
downloading :)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Azax:
Hi, does this support a dpi change option?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] tommrazek01:
Yes, but you are very likely to get many FC's. You can try what works in build.prop
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] pseudoheld:
any difference to the b35 version up on aokp.co for our device?

im running it right now and its running pretty well but if this has some extra bells and whistles i will jump ship ;)

btw does the option to hide the navbar work with this version? because on the b35 released by aokp the feature is broken (it worked fine on milestone5)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] spiff72:
Which google apps download should we use?

Just want to make sure I get the right gapps for this ROM. Is it the one on AOKP site listed under the b35 release? Or do we use the one from the XDA thread for the M5 release?

EDIT: Filenames -

gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip (from the AOKP site under the B35 release?) or...

gs-gapps-v3.zip (from the XDA Galaxian Soup M5 thread?)

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] tommrazek01:
Any Gapps for the GTab should be fine :)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] spiff72:
Thanks!

Just one more question - are the download links in the first post (for the wifi and 3g version) supposed to point to the same file? Just want to make sure I am not flashing the wrong ROM because of a hyperlink error!

Thanks

EDIT: Just flashed the b35 release with the Gapps mentioned in my post above (20120429), and I am stuck at the google logo with the spinning gears for about 5 minutes - I will give it another 5-10 minutes and try again. Did I just flash the 3G ROM on my wifi-only GTab 8.9?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] tommrazek01:
That shouldnt get you into a bootloop... I'm not sure, did you wipe?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] spiff72:
Yes - did factory reset, formatted /system and wiped dalvik cache.

Are the files supposed to be the same? They are different on the AOKP site.

---------- Post added at 03:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:36 PM ----------

Just tried again - same procedure, and I paid more attention during the flash. It did say in the text that appears during the flash that the ROM was for the 3G. Waiting for the boot to finish or hang now...

Of course it worked this time! Strange...
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] tommrazek01:
A bad flash. Happens :-). Note: There is NEVER a need to format /system, Roms are designed is such a way they just replace anything in their way.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Abra_Cadabra:
Still having an issue where the stock browser just stops loading pages after a while. Closing the browser completely and re-opening seems to fix it.

Does anyone else have this?

Otherwise the ROM seems just about perfect.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] spiff72:
Haven't noticed yet, but have only browsed to a few pages so far.

The issue I am having is with the Google Play Store - I was trying to download some of the apps I had already on my account, and I went to My Apps, then the "All" tab, and I was picking each app that I wanted to install on the left column, and then tapping the install button on the right. As I was doing this it was CONSTANTLY trying to flip back to Adobe Flash's entry, which is the very first one in my "Installed" tab. It is hard to explain. I might be able to take a video of it later to show what I am seeing.

Thanks

EDIT: Here is a video of what I am seeing:

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] harry_fine:
I'm a bit confused. We now seem to have two or three separate threads about release 35 of ICS based on Galaxian Soup AOKP.

One is labelled:

[ROM][ICS 4.0.4][AOKP-Milestone 5]Galaxian-Soup[GT-7310/7300][05.01.2012]

The other is labelled:

[ROM][ics] Build 32 By the AOKP team [Update Build 35 Now for wifi en 3G tab's]Arrow

The other is labelled:

[ROM][ICS 4.0.4][AOKP-Build 35]Galaxian-Soup - Official[GT-7310/7300][05.01.2012]

Is there a difference? Do we need so many?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] spiff72:
The first one is the initial thread for Milestone 5 (aka build 34?). The second one appears to be the thread for build 32, then updated with info about build 35. And the last appears to be the "official" thread that was started specifically for build 35.

I agree - it is confusing.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:
It helps a bit going to the browser settings and putting the plug-ins set On Demand.

Answered this very same question (why double post?) right here. That should clear things up.

Note to the GalaxianSoup Team: You guys deserve being the maintainers of this tab's AOKP variant. You guys earned it due to your talents and dedication and I congratulate you all :)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] tommrazek01:
Thank you very much for the pleasant words. The three posts are there simply because this one was official(yes, we are official now) , so we wanted to post it in a different thread. Sorry if it made a mess.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:
I found this interesting post about the high Android OS usage in battery stats. I already deleted that .apk and will test leaving Wi-Fi and Sync on through the night.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
Even with the high Android OS usage the battery drain is still pretty okay imho. Am losing around one third of a percent per hour while idle, with 90% at deep sleep.

Could be better ofcourse so will also try it with the mentioned file deleted but so far pretty happy. Some screenies: first & second ;)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Byzandroid:
Using the 7310 download link I got the 3G version. How do I get the WiFi version?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Jnn1:
Reporting the same issue here. Browser just stops loading websites after a while. Force stop fixes it for me, but its tedious.

Also, my boot animation still scrambles. Boot animation flicks sideways then upwards and infinitally repeats in high frequency. Even the initial lockscreen flicks in the same way, though once I press power and turn screen on off, its all okay. Thisis happening despite a full clean wipe reset odin stock install then aokp flash. :(
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] spiff72:
Same here - I would like to try the Wifi version, as the 3G seems to have issues for me. I am tempted to try the version from the AOKP site, but it looks like there may be some installer script errors.

My battery drained about 30% overnight, and I can't get wifi to connect this morning. I also see 'phone idle' using up battery.

It also spent almost no time in deep sleep.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:
Testing

...lost 1% in 10 hours with Wi-Fi/Sync on. First time I've ever had that low usage in an ICS ROM. I'm gonna charge the battery full and leave it for a day without charging to test again and be sure, and I will provide a screenshot. I think we may be on to something by deleting that apk. I urge people to test this procedure to see if we too discovered what was causing the drainage.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] spiff72:
nirogu325,

Do you have the wifi only GTab or the 3g?

I have reverted back to my Overcome backup for now, but really want to run the wifi-only version of this ROM. Just not sure how to get it. I tried the one on the AOKP site, but it fails to install because of the assert error mentioned elsewhere. I really want to get rid of the 3g-related parts of the ROM (messaging, phone, and the apps/processes that come with them) to make sure they aren't causing the wifi and battery drain issue I have been seeing.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:
I have the 7310 unit (Wi-Fi only). I offered a solution in the past thread for the Status 7 error CWM gives so perhaps you can use that as a guide. Have you tried the suggestion I offered in my past post? I'll be testing that one again today since 10 hours and losing just 1% was too good to be true, have to be double-sure.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] tommrazek01:
Download Problems fixed! Nirogu325, that sounds amazing, I will try it tonight and tell you how it works
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] tommrazek01:
Double post, sorry.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] spiff72:
I haven't tried deleting the transport file yet. I ended up reverting to a backup instead since I was unable to get the wifi working this morning.

So you have the wifi version of the ROM, and you were able to install the one that is posted on the AOKP site via the method you reference above? I am not sure about what you are explaining needs to be fixed though. I have messed around with the zip files in the past (when I had a Xoom) and I was change some of the battery icons in the framework.

Did you take the one from AOKP site and replace the entire META-INF folder with the META-INF folder from the download within this thread? And what about the deleting if the .ogg file mentioned in the other post - is that needed too?

Thanks for your help!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:
I think the team indeed fixed those up in this thread so you can go ahead and download from the links provided at the OP. I made those steps for those who couldn't wait to have the latest in that moment :p.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] spiff72:
I hate to be "that guy", but the first post doesn't seem to have changed. The two links are still pointing at the same file - and that file is the 3g version of the ROM. I tried clearing my browser cache and trying safari here and still get the same result!

Am I looking at the wrong place in the post to grab the wifi version from? Or was the correction made on the AOKP site as well?

Thanks again for all your work on this!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:
EDIT: Spiff72, check your inbox. There may be a clue to what may be provoking those pesky Status 7 errors.

EDIT 2: Spiff is right, the 3G link is repeated at OP.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:
Battery test results

Test results after 9hrs with Wi-Fi and Auto-Sync set to ON, idling. Just 3% lost. tommrazek01, awaiting your results! So far, I think this is great.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jenne1980:
Argh, there are so many different versions now. I have no idea what's the difference between:

and

[ROM][ICS 4.0.4][AOKP-Build 35]Galaxian-Soup - Official[GT-7310/7300][05.01.2012]

and

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] safariking:
This was asked over 2 times already but the Mod is just a mod on build 35 created by me:) the other one is just the original build 35 by the AOKP team wit a fix in it en the other one is modded by Galaxian soup team based on milestone 5 (milestone 5 is older than Build 35)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] clovek1:
bad link for P7310 (wifi only)

both links:

-AOKP Build 35 Galaxian-soup ICS for GT-7300 3g

- AOKP Build 35 Galaxian-soup ICS for GT-7310

are pointing to the same file, which is apparently a 3G version.

after installing the the P7300 (3G) on a P7310(wifi only), there is a mobile network icon on the tablet. It reports, that the table can't connect to the 3G operator.

additionally, the tablet never goes to Deep Sleep (may be because of the 3G network problem). this causes quite a huge battery drain on my P7310 (wifi only).
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] safariking:
Yes i also saw that the links are not good
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] tommrazek01:
We have a problem. Jut go with b32. The links are bad and need to be fixed.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] safariking:
Why B32 thats old man
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] pseudoheld:
just flashed this instead of the "official" aokp b35.

hide navbar still isn't working for me. it was perfectly fine in ms5 but now it doesn't work anymore. shame about that. hope it gets fixed in the next version....
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] clovek1:
to install the AOKP Build35 you just need to edit (e.g. with Total Commander, ENTER on ZIP, find the file, press F4, replace code with copy/paste, save and let the Total Commander repack the ZIP file automatically) the:

META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script

wrong code:

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "p5wifi" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "p5wifi");

(replace with) correct code:

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "p5wifi" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "p5wifi" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "p5" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "p5" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-P7300" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "GT-P7300" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-P7310" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "GT-P7310");

no ogg file deletion or other manipulation seems to be needed.

I just installed the AOKP B35 this way on my P7310.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:
Fixed AOKP Build #35

File size will be smaller due to me erasing bloat from /system/media/video. There were up to 10MB of unnecessary video files in there for no reason. Disclaimer: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU IN ANY WAY DAMAGE YOUR TABLET. BY FLASHING YOU ACCEPT FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS. Since this version comes from the AOKP website, it contains their team's boot animation. If you don't like it, go to Settings>ROM Control>General UI>press Disable boot animation. Don't ask me for boot animations, there's a thread for that.

AOKP Build#35 - Wi-Fi

AOKP Build#35 - 3G (Untested, need feedback but should work)

Modified GappsV3 sans GoogleBackupTransport (testing for more battery life): LINK

For those that may be interested what kind of battery I'm having while testing the modified GAppsV3, see the thumbnail below. That's with Wi-Fi/Sync ON, screen turned off - just testing idle battery loss and it has gotten better indeed.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] tommrazek01:
I am sorry, but i hvae to argue with you. I am pretty sure it is p5wifi. Check again.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nirogu325:
Ok, I'll be more clear since you changed it but made the same error. In your post, when I click the 3G link it sends me to the Wi-Fi ROM, and when I click the Wi-Fi link it sends me to the Wi-Fi ROM. You are duplicating the links as you can see. People will download (and may even flash) the wrong version when they click the 3G link since you put the Wi-Fi link in there. Please assign the correct 3G link.

hiding the navbar still doesn't work for me!

i'm guessing there is sth fundamentally wrong with it (meaning its aokps problem)

could someone maybe test if it works for them, and if not head over to their forums and confirm it aswell:

What is the difference between this nycbjr's ROM of the same name?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] fpdragon:
Hi, just one wish:

would it be possible to add the following line to the file "system/build.prop"?

ro.sf.lcd_density=213

I use this setting to make everything a little bit bigger and change the DPI. I noticed that the AOKP configuration tool supports the lcd density but on default this line is missing in build.prop and on the GUI. After adding this line (without care of the number) a new setting appears and the dpi can be configured from the gui also.

Please add this line with the default lcd density (don't know whats default for sgt8.9) to enable the gui option on default. Right now I have to add this line again after every rom update which is annoying.

thx

by the way: very good work ;)

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] ChristopherJ:
Be warned. After installing this ROM, an app which has guards against screen shots detected multiple screenshot attempts and locked me out of my account. I'm not sure what exactly was happening but it tripped the security repeatedly.

Great ROM, wish I could use it because of the high level of customization. Great job to the builders!

I have indeed an issue with milestone 5: browser stops loading pages while surfing, approx. 5-10mins after starting to browse. Restarting browser in app manager solves problem.

Not working for me either on b36...
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Abra_Cadabra:
Yes.. that browser issue. Seems like all ICS roms for 8.9 have that with the stock browser.

Using an alternate browser seems to be the only solution short of restarting the browser every few minutes.

---------- Post added at 10:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:05 PM ----------

Hrmmm...Weird new issue with B36. It looks like I can't use HW decoding for video anymore. I've been using MX Player, and have two movies on my tab. I normally used SW decoding in the past for HD content, because it was less choppy. I figured I would test out this ROM with HW, but when I chose it, I get an error message about how it's not supported. I've never had this issue before, even on M35. Not sure what broke...

sorry, bad post, it is solved
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] gpo1956:
Sorry to be dense, here, but I need some clarification. I can find the line in total Commander. Am I supposed to just delete it and retype the line shown for 7310?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] phonic:
Almost. You need to put all those lines in there (technically you might only need one, but the extra ones won't hurt). I would suggest a copy/paste versus risk a typo though. What you need to do is replace the top of that file, inside of the zip, with the lines in the other post. Make sure to keep the rest of it the same, and don't mess with anything else. Once that file is fixed, you should be able to install it properly.

I'm not sure why it fails without that change, nor why the Devs never picked up on it across two releases, since it is talked about on the Rootzwiki forum too.

Depending on how you replace that file, you might get an error on the rezip about some ogg music file. Just ignore it, as losing that file won't matter.
