I Proudly Present the first Custom Rom available for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (GT-P5113)​

What is this you ask:

This is a slightly modified version of the most current stock ROM available for the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (GT-P5113).

Notice for CleanRom v1.0 users:

The update instructions are below the installation instructions. Updating to the newest version will NOT remove any of your settings or data as long as you do not Wipe Data / Factory Reset.

Changlog:

Version 1.1:

1. Moved Dropbox to Data so it can be removed
2. Removed SuperSU and added Superuser to resolve some issues.
3. Added download containing removed apk files (See details below)

Features so far:

-Stock, Rooted, Deodexed, Zipaligned

-Removed a bunch of bloat applications

-Removed crap bookmarks

That's about it.

Pre-requisites:

1. You must have the custom recovery installed from the Rooting thread. (If you are going to install this you do not have to install the root zip file, this rom is already rooted.)

Installation Instructions: (Update instructions below)

1. Download to external sdcard

2. Reboot to recovery

3. Make a nandroid backup Highly Recommended

4. Data Wipe/Factory Reset REQUIRED for new installations

5. Flash Rom

6. Reboot and enjoy

Update Instructions:

1. Download the latest version to your external sdcard

2. Reboot to recovery

2a. Looks like you may need to wipe data (Some people are reporting issues with Wifi if they do not wipe data.)

3. Flash Rom

4. Reboot and enjoy

Flashing the rom on my device takes about 1.5 minutes or less, but the first boot will take about 2.5 minutes, and then another 30 seconds or so to format the applications. After the first boot it will boot up much faster.

Further Information:

Since this is basically a very minimally modified version of the stock Rom there is no need to post screenshots.

Removed Apps:

Below in the download section you will find a zip file containing all of the apk files that have been removed from stock during the process of building this Rom. Some of them will allow you to simply install, but other will require a little more effort:

To install apks manually that will not install themselves you will have to do the following:

1. Move the apk file to the /system/app/ folder with a root enabled file explorer

2. Reboot you tablet.

Download Links:

Version 1.1 (Current release)

Dropbox Download v1.1

Google Drive Download v1.1

Will this also work on P5110? Will be getting mine next week. :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] sgrant:
I am not really sure if it will or not since I only have the P5113. Do you know what the difference in the P5110 is?

Edit:

Took a quick look at a spec sheet and the only thing I noticed was that it looks like the P5110 might not have the IR?
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] zyonee:
Regional stuff only, I think, but if there are firmware files that differ between countries because of wifi channels, etc, it could be a problem. Never mind, I'll try it anyway. Might steal vendor files from a backup made before the flashing of your ROM. :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] thor670:
The P5110 is without 2G/3G GSM Unit.

[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] sgrant:
The P5113 does not have 2G/3G either.

I am looking forward to test this rom :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] cheatman:
I'm looking at creating a similar ROM for the 5100 (3G version) but I'm running into some issues during the framework de-odex.

@sgrant: if you have any pointers as to the tools or methods you use to actually make it work, I'd appreciate it.

Peace,

C.
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] dzerveviktory:
Omg! Soo excited to try this!
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] sgrant:
If I had to guess I would say that you are targeting the wrong framework. Make sure you are targeting framework 15.

Regarding tools, I use Android Kitchen, but I DO NOT allow it to convert my updater-script to an update-script. Basically this means I can only use a few of the features of Android Kitchen:

1. Deodex Files

2. Zipalign

3. Create and sign zip

You may be able to use a few more things without the update-script, but I had troubles anytime I let Kitchen create it.

If you need more help create a thread in the Q&A forum and PM me the link. That way others will have a better time finding the information.
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] weltwon:
Clean ROM test results

Before you install the Clean ROM v1.0, know the following:

1. You MUST do a factory/reset in CWM5 (the CWM you install from my OP)

2. Factory Reset will NOT delete EVERYTHING on your external SD card

3. Installing Clean ROM V1.0 will NOT damage your CWM5.

4. I personally tested the Clean ROM V1.0 today. Runs smooth and it has some of the "bloatware" that can't be removed from the standard stock ROM. I detected an ever-so-slight improvement in smoothness & speed.

5. This ROM has NOT been tested on ANY Tab2 other than GT-P5113 at this time.

Bottom Line: We have our first SAFE custom ROM for the Tab 2 10.1 GT-P5113.

Thank you sgrant !

Glenn :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] sgrant:
Thank you Glenn!

But are you sure that the factory reset is deleting stuff from your external SD card? It is not deleting anything at all from my sdcard.
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] weltwon:
Factory reset does NOT wipe external SD card

My mistake. When I tried to access my external card using Astro File Manager it said the card was 100% blank and not even formatted. Removed SD card from Tab, plugged into my desktop PC and saw that all my files/data is still on the external SD card. I have corrected my posts accordingly.

[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] sgrant:
I have returned a few Android devices to Best Buy that had custom recovery, and they never said a word.

They typically just check if the device is damaged physically.

Just play dumb if they do say anything, and act like you don't know what they are talking about.

SuperSU (did not work for some reasons ?! there is an update message but it did not work)

Dropbox

Netflix (i am from germany and it does not work here :P)

i installed superuser from market and it works perfectly :) but SuperSU did not work
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] Zeustopher:
Quick question - what bloat applications did you actually remove? There are a few of the Samsung ones I actually use and want to make sure I know which ones are removed so I can make backups of them with Titanium Backup first.

I'm getting ready to take the plunge and root my device. I'm so excited to start seeing a few roms popping up.

Thanks guys!

[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] martijn.vanpoorten:
This rom works fine on my Tab 2 10.1 WiFi GT-P5110 the only thing i had to install is superuser to gain root acces

Download superuser from market

When i was using my stock rom i had the feeling that it was a bit slow when loading games and apps but after installing your rom it all works smoother and faster.

Thanks for your rom and keep up the good work!!
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] sgrant:
I updated the Rom to version 1.1 and moved Dropbox to the Data folder so it should now allow you to uninstall it.

I also removed SuperSU and added superuser.
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] sgrant:
Thank you for your feedback. I updated the rom to fix the SuperSU not working issue, and added Superuser.
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] sgrant:
Rather than having users worry about backing up apps I am uploading a zip file with all of the removed apps inside it.

Thank you for the feedback!
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] Zeustopher:
Thanks sgrant. I hadn't thought of that as an option, but that actually works out much better. I appreciate the great effort! Keep it up! :)

One more suggestion - could you include md5's for your downloads? I always like to make sure I haven't received a bad download. This isn't an emergency by any means, but it is always better safe then sorry.

-- Zeustopher
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] sgrant:
MD5 sums added to the first page. I should have thought to add them, slipped my mind I guess.

Thanks for the suggestion.

---------- Post added at 10:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 AM ----------

I noticed that you removed a lot of apps but there are still some apps i don't use and i want to remove them. But when deleting them they are either locked or showing messages that removing system apps can make your tablet unstable.

Another question... is it possible to add zram to this rom? The Cyanogen mod 9 rom has the zram option and am wondering how to install it on this rom.
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] Zeustopher:
I know one suggestion I've heard before is using Titanium Backup (or similar) is to try "freezing" the app you want to uninstall and then use the tablet and see if it has any adverse effects on anything. If it does, then you know it is a bad idea to uninstall it and you can just unfreeze it.

I haven't done it yet on the Tab 2, but I've done that before on other Android devices and it worked well. After freezing it I'll use it for several reboots, etc with the app frozen. Once I know for sure I don't want it, I make a backup with TB and then uninstall it.

Hope that helps. If you have success with that, please let us know.

-- Zeustopher
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] martijn.vanpoorten:
I have Titanium Backup Pro installed and it allows me to freeze system apps and it also has the option to remove them.

Thanks for the rom!!
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] kuronosan:
I would have to agree that wiping seems to be the only way to solve it. Also, for some reason wiping data wiped my sdcard (internal). I imagine this is because the default saving locations for backups and downloads is internal unless you specify otherwise.

Keep that in mind.

i'v bought my Tab2 10.1 in the Netherlands, its a GT-P5110.

i Flashed the rom on the tab, so it registers as a GT-P5113.

everything runs great, one 1 thing that i encounter,

i have 2 WiFi router in my house, one in the loft. the 1st one was set on channel 5, and the 2end on channel 13.

after i booted my tab a scanned for WiFi access point i only saw the one transmitting on channel 5, after setting the 2end router to channel 7 i worked like a charm.

I discoverd that you get 48Gb extra free space on Dropbox if you login on Dropbox with this ROM

I had wifi issues so i wiped data, but now i can't get anything to download from the google play store. tried wiping the play store's cache and data, still no dice. reformatted data and tried it all again, still not working. wifi DOES work, and I'm able to read emails and browse the web fine. i'll try to reinstall the rom. this was a clean 1.1 install, btw
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] sgrant:
This has happened to me before with other Roms and Google Play Store. Did you give the Rom some time to settle before clearing data?

On my Galaxy Note I have to wait about 20 minutes before the Play store works for some reason.
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] ffuser1:
not sure how much time i gave it. just did another factory reset and reinstalled the rom. no wifi issue, but nothing from the play store installs. i'll give it some time, if that's what you say has helped in the past. i get notifications about a few (most recent was 5) apps needing to be updated, yet the list still shows 142 waiting to be installed.

as a side note, i also notice a sync problem next to "sync internet" in accounts and sync. no other sync issues noted.
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] sgrant:
I will keep an eye here to see how it goes and if I need to do anything to help I will.

Does Gmail work?
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] ffuser1:
yea, gmail works. internet browser works also. i've also noticed that the app it's trying to install (now it's chrome beta) keeps appearing in the notification bar or making the notification bar pop up if it's selected.

edit: I eventually got a could not be downloaded error (495). Now onto another app that says it's downloading but isn't.

edit 2: seems the infected rom also won't download from google play...

i should mention this is the wifi 5113 device. switching networks doesn't change things unfortunately...
[Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development] PanchoPlanet:
I'm running the infected Rom for 2 days now no problems downloading from Google play , running very smooth. Only issue was missing task mngr widget, and i pushed that into system app's and all is well.

Doesn't seem to work with Android File Transfer

I tried tab210CleanRom v1.1 on my rooted Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, but I have a problem.

This ROM seems to work fine, with one exception: was unable to get the MacOSX Android File Transfer program to work with this ROM, and this prohibits me from transfering files between my tablet and desktop computer, in both directions. When I run this program with my tablet connected via USB to my desktop computer, I get an error saying that I can't connect to the tablet.

Android File Transfer works fine with the stock ROM that came with my tablet.

I didn't install any of the Removed Apps, but do I perhaps need one or more of them in order for Android File Transfer to work?
