[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Sonkway:
Just for grins I ran this on CM7 (20120715) and it ran pretty well. Wimax connects and seems to work. Only issue I had was lock-ups when wimax couldn't get a signal for a while or sometimes just turning wimax off. Ran the recent stable kernel with default settings - also tried lower max speed and Scary and SIO with same results, have not tried other governers or I/O schedulers.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] blmvxer:
Does anyone have issues with the system slowing down when installing or running new apps? Sometimes my phone tries to force close the system during either one of those tasks.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
That's a ROM issue. Doesn't happen on gingerbread ROMs.. Please don't report bugs that are not related to the kernel.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] trsix:
speedys back

tuvm, gonna give it a try again with sparksco latest kernel

oops meant to post this on the JB thread lol

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] HackitZ:
I have a rogers sxs and followed the guide to root my sxs with a locked bootloader and after a few tries was successful.

now i reset my sxs before i started, i'm using the LT26_6.1.A.0.452_Generic_CH_1257-3740_ ftf as my daily.

after the update my sxs's battery lasted about 3 hours and has slowly been getting better, but still seems bad. can't get a full day in (8 hours).

also once a day the phone just reboots, i go to open or swipe and it hangs then it just reboots.

has anyone else had issue's like this? could it be the root procedure or an ics issue or both?

thanks for any tips.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] HackitZ:
So I take it no one else has issue's like mine?

I have the same phone/carrier and firmware, no issues at all. Can get a solid days worth of use before charge, I run a very light setup on my device; not sure if that has a huge difference.

Thanks.

I am on ICS, used the generic CH that was made available in the first thread on rooting ICS.

Thanks.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] HackitZ:
I was reading about cwm and maybe I will use it to flash a rom and see if it gets any better.

I'm tired off random apps hanging then android asking if I want to wait or force close.

Thanks for the replies.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] HackitZ:
Ok I have time this weekend to fix my phone but I would like some advice.

Do you think I should start all over again or can I just reset and reflash ics?

If I only flash the same ics will I loose root?

Thanks for any input.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] HackitZ:
Ok i updated my sxs with the new guide and it seems more stable than last time. no force closes or wait screens.

now i have a few questions and or advise?

what version or what busybox are you using?

what cpu app are you using to underclock the cpu? i was using set cpu.

what if any roms are you guys using?

thanks

Anyway i can get 4g hotspot working for free? (I have 4g working but when i turn on the hotspot it changes to 3G im on the z3rd rom)
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
I think the Sprint Hotspot app does that on ICS. Try the Wifi Tether app.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vahlk:
Hello fellas! This will be on my first post on the XDA Forums. I decided to ask a question in reference to a Kernal Update. I recently got the S3 and decided to follow through with a flashing of a custom ROM followed by a Kernal that gave me an OverClock feature.

ROM: KyanROM

Located: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1751595

Kernal: [Sammy] KT747 by ktoonsez

Located: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1756776

I really like the ROM and I might be sticking with it until Jellybean. But more over, like I mentioned before, I felt like trying out an OC feature and KT747 Kernal gave me that. My problem is that when I plug the S3 into the PC, it'll sometimes fail recognize that it is indeed plugged in and if it does recognize, my PC won't install the drivers properly until I reboot my phone then re-connect.

So, to fix, I reflashed back to stock kernal and the USB recognition/Driver installation seemed to revert back to it's consistency in function.

Since I can't post in the dev. side of the forum yet, I decided to ask here; Is the issue with the custom Kernal, or could the problem derive from my PC USB ports?

I'm guessing it might be a Kernal bug. Correct me if I'm wrong. I know very little when it comes to Android Developing ;)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Theory:
In order to help owners of the 7.7 with our decision on whether or not to upgrade to ICS--especially given the known existence of the brick bug--I thought that a database of successful and unsuccessful upgrade configurations might be useful. Hope you will contribute, using the below format.

1. Configuration prior to upgrade (e.g., 3G/Wifi from Hong Kong, stock rom, etc.)

2. Upgrade ROM and process (e.g., Stock ICS "Open Austria" ROM, ODIN, MobileODIN, etc.)

3. Any Issues (especially things not working)

If your experience is the same as one already posted, it might be better to quote it while posting. And if your experience is different from others already posted, it would be helpful to mark it as such.

Configurations associated with unsuccessful upgrades are especially important and I would urge anyone with such experiences to add to the database.

Thank you!

* * * * *

Notable trends

1. So far: upgrading from a stock rom (both rooted and non-rooted) using either ODIN or MobileODIN (with everroot), corroborating initial impressions. Wiping cache and dalvik during ODIN/MobileODIN seems safe as well.

2. There are successful cases of upgrading from a non-stock rom. For examples, see post #3, #13, #15, #19, #20, #21.

3. A common complaint is that Wifi becomes more unstable after ICS. For examples, see post #11, #12, #16, #18. But this is still in the minority.

(Still monitoring...)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Theory:
I'll start with my own experience, so far smooth sailing:

1. Configuration Prior to Upgrade:

A 3g/Wifi 16GB from Hong Kong running Stock Honeycomb ROM. Rooted using suwandiapr's method, busybox not installed. Mods: ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=0 added to build.prop; WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission changed in platform.xml. Device tested positive for the BrickBug.

2. Upgrade ROM and process:

Done 5 July 2012. The "Open Austria" ROM (P6800XXLQ1) downloaded from samfirmware. Upgraded using MobileODIN, with everroot. No wiping involved.

3. Issues:

None so far. Almost all apps survived the upgrade without issues. 3G, Wifi and GPS working fine.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] ZhenMing:
1. Configuration prior to upgrade (e.g., 3G/Wifi from Hong Kong, stock rom, etc.)

Rooted with Tweak Stock Final 3.0 ROM, run with V6 Supercharged and 3G SuperCharged.

2. Upgrade ROM and process (e.g., Stock ICS "Open Austria" ROM, ODIN, MobileODIN, etc.)

Stock ICS "Open Austria" ROM from SamFirmware through MobileODIN with everroot and no wiping.

3. Any Issues (especially things not working)

All work flawlessly. Later wipe for OBE experience.

4. Now?

Wiped with QuickSilver 0.9a ROM. Work in turbo charged condition. Loving it.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] wkweksl:
1. Configuration prior to upgrade (e.g., 3G/Wifi from Hong Kong, stock rom, etc.)

P6800 from Singapore, stock.

2. Upgrade ROM and process (e.g., Stock ICS "Open Austria" ROM, ODIN, MobileODIN, etc.)

Stock XXLQ1 ICS from desktop ODIN. No wipe.

3. Any Issues (especially things not working)

None so far. Waiting for diopen ime asian support before thinking of rooting or custom rom.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] marwanxx:
transforming Stock XME Honeycomb ROM

via Mobile Odin Pro 2.45

into Stock ATO Ice Cream Sandwich ROM

I have done flashing ICS directly into my P6800 without wiping it by using Mobile Odin Pro 2.45 since released and I downloaded it. I have found no issue and the performance is greater than before. My installed application is still there and running smoother than before. I also rooted my P6800 without any conflict or issue.

I'am falling in love with my tab again right after flashed ICS into it.. o_O
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] TeeeJaay:
1. Configuration prior to upgrade (e.g., 3G/Wifi from Hong Kong, stock rom, etc.)

3G from Philippines, stock rom, rooted. Used as daily driver.

2. Upgrade ROM and process (e.g., Stock ICS "Open Austria" ROM, ODIN, MobileODIN, etc.)

Upgrade to ICS using Mobile Odin with everoot option and clear data + cache, upgrade was successful. After update and fiddling with the device for a few minutes, decided to do factory reset, factory reset done thru stock recovery.

3. Any Issues (especially things not working)

On Honeycomb about a week after purchase sim card error randomly appears, saying it was removed. After about a week or so without doing anything, suspecting that my sim is defective, sim card error does not appear anymore.

2 days after update to ICS sim card error now is reocurring, same fix as was with Honeycomb ; device power cycle. Still now observing if problem will still persist, other than that no other problems encountered.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] brontetab:
Hk tab

Ics flash

Wifi does not reconnect. Have to reboot a few times

Battery drain is very high
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] ColBill:
Similar experience for most part

1. Configuration Prior to Upgrade:

A 3g/Wifi 16GB from Hong Kong running Tweaked Stock for GT-P6800 Version 3.0 ROM by SK806 including his screen lock fix. Used CWM Recovery 5.2.0.2 and rooted. Mods: WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission changed to write to SD in HC. Device tested positive for the BrickBug.

2. Upgrade ROM and process:

Done 5 July 2012. The "Open Austria" ROM (P6800XXLQ1) downloaded from samfirmware. Upgraded using PC ODIN, with factory wipe from within CWM prior to install. After upgrade installed CWM Recovery 5.5.0.4 and root ICS.

3. Issues:

No significant ones so far. Almost all apps survived the upgrade without except need to change ebook app and still have problems with messaging. 3G, Wifi and GPS working fine. Use on Battery charge has almost doubled and improved app response superb.

Plan to use tweaked ROM from SK806 if puts one out for ICS.

1. 7.7 Wifi, purchased online, possibly from france, at least this is where it was shipped from.

2. Used stock ICS from sammobile, the official UK firmware, using Odin3

3. No issues thus far except I can't seem to locate the stock android keyboard on my tab, only the samsung one and swype and this is a tad annoying. Also the tab is not recognized in Kies, and states it has non-compatible firmware.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] aletheus:
Cm9 has stock EVERYTHING... well the gapps.zip did anyway.

This is what i did:

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,
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] davp:
Device: P6810/ 32g WIFI only

1. Noob rom 2.1, go launcher hd, cwm 5.0.2.7 recovery

2. Repacked xeu Ics stock rom with only zImage, factoryfs.img, cache.img, hidden.img into tar

Flashed cut-down tar with pc odin

1st reboot - red android with exclamation :silly:

2nd reboot cwm :confused:

3rd reboot (from cwm menu) working system :D

Root: copied/chmod original su with cwm adb shell

No wipes, but did clear dalvik sometime later after app cleanup

Removed some bloatware [sns, hubs etc]

3. All good, wifi connects quicker, a few old apps [battery widget] had to be cleaned up.

Checked...Usb/sd adapters [storage], gps, sammy hdmi adapter,

BT Keyboard, BT mouse. BT keyboard lag issue is much improved.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] robotsoul:
1. GT-P6810 WiFi 16GB from HK

Version 3.2, Build HTJ85B.ZSLA1 P6810ZSLA1 (stock)

2: Version 4.0.4, Build IMM76D.XXLPK (stock UK release)

Using Odin 1.87 and guide on this forum.

3. Upgrade went smooth - no hiccups. I had to refresh my widgets in ADW, but that was the only real work to do here. Only issue I noticed (and maybe just my imagination) is that the battery seems to

charge

slower than with HC (about 6 hours to change from 38%). Battery drain the same as HC, which was never bad for me. As fast as new TouchWiz is compared to old, ADW is also a little more fluid than before and still preferred for its look/feel/features.

Main improvement - ICS seems to have solved the "sleep of death" issue - which was wifi related. With HC, if wifi was set "always on", then randomly standby would freeze the tab (no wake up) and tab would get quite hot. After forcing restart, I would notice ridiculous amounts of battery was lost. Setting wifi to off during standby prevented this, but then obviously I could not sync in standby. With ICS, no problems yet.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] adinis78:
Did you give it a test drive? Is it worth flashing? Likes, dislikes? And most importantly is it all working as it should.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] aletheus:
Other than my mistake (flashing via mobile odin, injecting root and mobile odin, then factory resetting it --thus loosing mobile odin to flash cwm-- and not having a pc to flash cwm with desktop odin), no I had no problems. This was due to CM9 and NOT ics. You want CM9 though. It's outrageous.

I can't believe how fast this thing runs now. Everything is working, mobile data, wifi required a hotfix, but I think he's fixed that in the release he submitted to cyanogenmod, which is the one that's currently up.

We'll have an AOSP/AOKP of JB within the next few months. Now, that's my GUESS. But this tablet can definitely handle it.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Masterface7:
1. I have the 3g HK version and I was on the stock out of the box GB.

2. a)I flashed once with odin to stock ics and it worked fine.

b) I went back to hk stock, rooted and flashed stock ics with mobile-odin+everoot and it worked fine.

3.The first time i plashed with odin i had no issues except battery drain due to wifi.

I have only recenlty flashed with mobile odin and while i see no problems and root still works i would guess wifi battery drain is still there.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] aletheus:
Flash CM9 it solves the battery drain issue

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Steve_max:
1. Configuration prior to upgrade

Fresh Brazilian P6800 straight out of the box. Stock ZTO HC ROM.

2. Upgrade ROM and process

Flash root --> install MobileOdin --> flash Open Austria stock ICS with EverRoot option. No factory reset at any point.

3. Issues?

WiFi is a pain in the ass at work. If the screen turns off, it disconnects (even if the wifi policy is to remain always on); whenever it disconnects, it can't connect to the networks anymore, even though it sees them. If I turn WiFi off and then on, it goes into a loop (automatically turns off as soon as gets on, automatically turns on as soon as it gets off). Need to reset the tab. This doesn't happen at home.

Workarounds: At work, I keep the screen timeout at 10 minutes and occasionally touch the tablet to keep the screen on; besides, it sits at Airplane Mode, with just WiFi turned on. Additionally, I installed the WiFix Manager (from PlayStore, needs root), so when the WiFi eventually disconnects, I just turn it off and run the fix. This turns the WiFi alive again.

The video player FCd a few times, but that might be associated with GMD Gesture Control.

The last issue is that both my Galaxy SII and my laptop are feeling lonely now :p
