An almost perfect guide for beginners I suppose. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] air001:
Hi,

I have a noob question. Nandroid backup means the backup which I can make with stock recovery, doesn't it? This backups can restore with any "versions of stock recovery". I mean even under HC or ICS.

If I didn't make any backup with stock recovery before I flashed CWM then I shouldn't flash ICS, because CWM for HC (5.x.x.x) doesn't compatible with CWM for ICS (6.x.x.x)?

I won't be able to restore the CWM backup. Does it correct?

So, how can I revert to stock recovery from CWM?

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] nrage23:
Nandroid backup is done in CWM not stock recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] StrumerJohn:
No, Nandroid Backup means a backup of your System, Data, Cahce, and Boot of what you're currently running. Your backups should still be compatible with the latest CWM, however I recommend that you backup your app data with Titanium Backup as I can't 100% say they are since I myself do not do backups. To revert to the stock recovery simply reinstall ICS with ODIN.

Not sure if the response above is what you wanted for sure, but honestly, I couldn't understand your question very well.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] air001:
Yea. I am so sorry. Maybe it happened for my poor English.

So I have HC still. I can't reinstall ICS because I havn't flashed yet.

I understand my backups should still be compatible with the latest CWM, but does the latest (6.x.x.x) CWM compatible with HC? May I flash it under Android 3.2 Honeycomb?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] StrumerJohn:
Yes it should be I would believe. The recovery is separate from the ROM so it should work no matter what you're running. Give it a try. Nothing to lose so as long you backed up your data in case of emergency.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] air001:
OK. Thanks.

One more question. Is there a version of the latest CWM which I can flash with the older version (like a kind of upgrade) or I have to flash the CWM 6.x.x.x with Odin or Heimdall?

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] StrumerJohn:
As far as I know, you cannot flash another recovery via the recovery. You can only ODIN, Heimdall, or Adb push it on the device.

You won't lose any data with ODIN.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] air001:
OK, Thank you very much.

I am not worrying about my datas, because there is not any important datas on my device. I just only use to browsing the net.

flash issues

Adobe flash seems to be clunky in ICS on the p6210 for me . Some videos will load up but when i click the maximize button it goes black and freezes the browser ( dolphin). ... i did not have this problem in honeycomb. help? or is this just a ics thing
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] slim_thumb:
Excellent, thank you!

Installing ICS for the first time on my GT7+. Installation process was straight forward and smooth. Great improvement over the original HC - the tab is no longer sluggish and has no more hickups. So far so good!

Can someone confirm that nandroid backups saved with CWM version 5 (5.0.2.7 from garyd9's

original

CWM for HC) can be restored with the new CWM version 6 or not?

If the v.6 CWM is not backward compatible with nandroid backups of older v.5, do you think it is possible to flash the temporary CWM (which is used to gain root in the original process) which is version 5.8, and use this to retore the CWM version 5 nandroid backup?

The question is: can you only flash the temporary CWM with stock recovery, or this would also work in CWM v.6?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] slim_thumb:
Youtube plays fine for me in Dolphin HD at 1080p at full screen. No stutter or freeze. Vimeo HD does not play smoothly at full screen, even when I switch off HD. My Kindle Fire can handle both Youtube and Vimeo HD without any problem.

Another thing I notice - when I use the web browser (stock or Dolphin), zoom in the page, then drag to move around different parts of the page, at first everything go smoothly. After a while, it seems to become resistant to dragging particularly horizontally and diagonally, as if the tab is registering these movements sluggishly. A lot of times you have to stop the kinetic scrolling, wait a little, before drag to move works properly again. Interestingly, pinch-zoom it a little again makes drag moving around the page smooth again, but only for a short time.

I wonder if there is problem with rendering of the webpages?

BTW it is not a problem with touchscreen sensitivity. I use touchscreen tune to maximize sensitivity and this does not correct the problem.

P.S. Opera mobile has none of this sluggish drag to move problem. It must be a fault with the Android 4.0.4 browser (Dolphin uses the stock browser core).
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] slim_thumb:
I can confirm that the web browser Flash player performance in this ICS firmware is not as good as the HC (or GB in other tablets).

I also answered my previous questions - I installed permanent CWM which is v.6. It is not backward compatible with the nandroid backup from CWM v.5. You also cannot flash the temporary CWM (which is v.5) with the permanent CWM.

I turned of Ad Away ad blocking and reverted to standard hosts file. No luck.

I updated to stock ICS and when I try and apply root.zip I get signature verification failed. Did the update kill the ability to root with this file?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] StrumerJohn:
You don't apply the root zip initially, you apply the temporary CWM zip then the Root Zip.

NONE of the files I've downloaded from the OP will extract, though I'm using 7zip. Doesn't matter what computer I use (I have both XP and Windows 7), I keep getting an error when I try to open these files. Never had this problem before. I have a version of Stock Honeycomb (from bdigitalstudio's thread, if I recall) but obviously, not ICS.

Any suggestions would be great, since I've already stripped my Tab naked.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] bossie1975:
Thank you in advance for this clear guide!. Was struggling to flash CM10, but through your guide I now know I did things in the wrong order :o

Will try and flash stock ICS asap, but I have no doubt everything wil work as described!

---------- Post added at 01:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:09 PM ----------

Not sure what you mean with your post, but from what I read that you are trying to extract the files on your PC??? DONT! EVER!

Please read the guide step-by-step the zip file you download you need to either load the zip file in Odin or flash the zip file through recovery....
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] kevalin:
No, no... the files wouldn't extract while in recovery on the Tab. The problem was solved when I used a different mirror.

Today, however, I ran into a new issue: my Tab has suddenly shut down twice without warning. It shut down sometime this evening, not sure when, then again about a half-hour ago. I had to do the 10-second power button hold to get it to do anything the first time,. The second time, it shut down and went straight to showing the battery charging. Thing is, the battery was nowhere near empty when it shut down the first time, so there was no reason I can see for it to do so.

Since I never had this problem before this upgrade, I'm suddenly feeling a bit leery. I.haven't done anything fancy with the Tab, just updated.and rooted.

Any idea what might have triggered this?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] HernanYH:
hello. So you used the cmw only temporary? Did not need the permanent CWM? So that it serves the permanent cmw? Is there any risk if not installed permanent CWM?. many thanks for your answer.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] WangChung81:
Is there an official U.S. ICS ROM/Odin package yet? I keep getting a "Software Update" error with this U.K. version.

Me too but I think it's normal with a rooted ROM.

Also CWM is not compatible with OTA.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cp320703:
this (whoops, forgot to quote, I'm referring to the post immediately above mine), even in the stock browser simply double tapping text makes it fit to the screen
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elcidroyale:
You mean the text automatically fills the screen perfectly or it just zooms in with text being cut off?

I appreciate you guys chiming in. I'm trying to determine if this is an isolated issue or due to upgrading to FF18. On the stock rom, no matter what browser I used, I was able to zoom way in and the text would auto reformat to fit the screen.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lems111:
+1 zoom in at the text size desired and then, double tap on the screen for reflow to happen. I missed this feature and found it by accident, 2 days ago

in stock browser make sure you have "auto fit text" selected in settings>advanced ... if not check it then double tap will work...

[Galaxy S II General] MartnG:
I've been trying to compile roms for a week now and the last few days I had succes with building CM9 from source and AOKP from source. Those are not that hard to build and it didn't take that long. To build these roms from source was a very good practice and helps me to go into further rom building.

But from the beginning my goal was to build a rom using the Google AOSP source. As I know that's not as easy as building something like CM9 but it is possible right? But it is possible as far as I know.

What I tried to do was to sync with the stock Android repo and synced the CM9 device tree and kernel etc but it didn't worked as I don't know what to edit and what I exactly need to build a working rom.

So what I want to know is: How do I build a

working

ROM from the stock Android ICS source? And what do I need to edit and to download (what sources etc)?

I don't need every step full described, but can anyone explain me all the steps what (files/repo's) I need and what files I need to edit to compile a full working ROM. Or isn't it that simple?

Last month some guy (stormtroopercs or something like that) said he will post a tutorial but I didn't see anything from him and the topic from that guy is dead.

Thank you very much for your help!

(My working space is fully setup so I don't need to know how to setup a building enviroment!)
