I think you're aware of this but just in case not.

While GPS is working on the build it is not working fully.

I have attached two screenshots, the first from my P6800 with PA latest build on it, the second from a SGS2 taken at the same time.

The P6800 does detect satellites, but never more then 5 and never gets a proper fix like the one shown on the SGS2 screen (i.e. satellites always stay grey on the indicator bar), the SGS2 also has PA installed.

Whether this is a sensitivity issue or software I can't say, but my guess is it's a blob interfacing issue of some type.

Regards and keep up the good work.

Cool deal. Figured you would have looked into all options but you never know unless you throw it out there. Honestly I got mixed up when I saw it out there cause I am on verizon but also have an ATT galaxy 8.9 I just use on wifi. Sometimes just blank out on which has which processor and their use of lte is for different networks.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] gazjglusk:
I have exactly the same problem with CM10 (and Para') compared to stock ICS.

However, last weekend I used GPS driving from Newcastle to Sydney and navigating Sydney suburbs for over 1 hr. without any problems, not one.

Picked up every red light camera, change in speed limit etc using Sygic. It was perfect.

Cheers all
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] pinsb:
You'll get just about enough data from one or two SATs to work with SatNav, however that doesn't address the underlying issue.

The more SATs you're logged onto the better the proper fix and I suspect the lower your battery usage would be (not polling for in proper signals).

Wondering when CM team will approve our device to receive official support from them ;)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Astrix Ashburn:
Afaik...Team Hacksung are the Samsung Devices maintainer for CM.

They cannot give official support if they dont own this tab.

Hope Locerra could be Official CM Tab 7.7 maintainer.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] wintermute000:
locerra out of curiosity is it possible to incorporate sammy binary driver blobs or is this impossible due to either JB not ICS or it can't be CM due to non AOSP etc.?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
They maintain most high profile (i.e. popular), non-Qualcomm Samsung devices. Other officially supported Samsung devices are maintained outside of teamhacksung.

We do include binary blobs: every list in https://github.com/ohanar/android_device_samsung_smdk4210-tab/tree/jellybean/props_lists contains binary blobs that are extracted from stock ICS (there are more that are device specific, but these are the ones that are common to all Tab7+ and Tab7.7 variants).

My tab discharged and now refuses to turn on. Any ideas?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] aorth:
Plug it into the wall charger... it should charge there. Leave it charging for a good 10 or 20 minutes before you try to turn it on...

I let it charge overnight, still nothing.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] gazjglusk:
1. I am not always accessible to my PC to check for posts.

2. I am a disability pensioner with (amongst other things) severe arthritis in the hands. --> continually posting and typing is very painful.

Therefore it is much easier to talk through trying things and I imagine much quicker.

After hopefully getting the tab to boot we can post how it was done

Just wondering if the Samsung USB Adapter works with this build of CM10.

I bought one but don't know how a USB drive would show up even on the stock rom.

Any help is appreciated.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] gazjglusk:
Hi, just wondering ..did you get your Tab working ?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] JemaKnight:
Yep! Just a few hours ago.

I had to take the tab apart and disconnect the battery for a few minutes, and then plug it back in to charge for a while.

Back to its old self though, thankfully. Going to make sure it never charges down again... -_-

I forgot to take out my microsd before pulling apart though, and I snapped it in half. Whoops.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] gazjglusk:
Good on you !! Thought you might have ..I did it a couple of months ago, but luckily didn't break (nearly) my 32gb Class10 Cheers

What about hw composer? I've tried locerra's CM10 before when wifi was first available, but wasn't as smooth as CM9 so I went back. Could this be due to this:

Just wondering if you are holding the power button for 20-30 seconds when you get into the state. I have had the same issue a couple of times and find that if you hold the button long enough it will come back on.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] hotyys:
is this project discontinued?

it's been a long time since last update.

rom is gorgeous except for the memory leak issue still remains unfixed
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] rayjr13:
Maybe suspended, but not officially discontinued. Until the ICS leak comes out locerra mentioned not wanting to invest too much time figuring out the "blobs." You can read through the thread for the details plus a relocation.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
I have had no time to work on this since school came back in session. Once ICS comes out for the i815 I'll try to find time to make an update with mobile data and fixed sensors. Other than that I'll be working on wifi, if I have time (which is unlikely for the next few months, unfortunately).
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] funkyblue04:
Is there anyone else that can work on it with a donations button :D We will not be getting JB Officially, and it seems your the only hope in getting it to an Offical CM status. I thank you for your hard work so far.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] steak820:
I just thumbed you five bucks for your trouble and I hope that we might see a new build soon. Maybe one where the cyanogenmod boot up logo is in portrait (little things bug me) :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
This is actually a really annoying problem that I am very annoyed by. The "default orientation", which determines the orientation of the bootanimation, lock screen, etc. is read from the kernel, and I found where in the kernel this is, but it appears that the portion that sets it in the kernel is unused. So really, the only way to truly fix this issue is to make some heavy modifications to the way sensors work, which is going to be a very involved process (although there would be other benefits besides fixing this). So, again, don't have time, only one involved thing that I'm even considering doing when I have time (wifi).

As for the issues that are not specific to our tab (memory leak, hdmi, etc), many of the teamhacksung guys are getting worn out with developing for exynos, so general development has slowed dramatically for all exynos devices (i9100, i9300, i777, n7000, n80xx, tab 7.7, and tab 7+).
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Gilbot:
I have been reading the CM10 discussion thread over in the n7000 forums, since development there probably means development here. So many ETA requests guised as comments lol. I feel for the devs.

I also just want to say thank you for all your work.

I mean seriously, where would we be without you?! :good:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] himadri:
It might be a bug or not, after a couple of minutes of video recording this morning the tablet screen turned purple for a while. It became normal after I put the screen to sleep and brought back up. I guess its a memory problem.

After reading this thread

then this one

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1808153

I wonder if the region version of your TAB together with how you got to CM10 (what you flashed prior) might be making a difference whether wifi and gps works fully or not.

It would be useful if people posted here EXACTLY which region their TAB was bought from, which firmware(s) they applied (and the order) prior to CM10. Exactly what is and isn't working properly.

I have a HK device which went from Hong Kong Honeycomb to CM9, then CM10 then PA.

My WiFi is flakey (works very close only and won't reconnect after a disconnect because of too many local LANS).

My GPS is flakey (will see no more then 5 satellites and never a full 'proper' lock - see my earlier post in this thread).

If there is a definite issue with the order that firmwares are applied it may be worth for me to go back to Honeycomb and then flash HK ICS then do CM10.

Other examples would be very useful.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] gazjglusk:

A bit off topic, but I trust admin will allow
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] chefdave12118:
Any chance 4g is going to work with this for i 815 anytime soon?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Gilbot:
locerra needs the ICS source for the i815 to drop before any attempt can be made.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
I actually need the blobs from the release, not the source -- we already are running off of that, which is the issue since the Honeycomb blobs don't work.

An attempt could be made, but I don't think it would be worth the effort and I don't have any time right now. What has happened (and is ready to be merged) is a fix for the memory leak from Espenfjo (and Entropy512), so hopefully I can find some time to make builds for you all.

Enable/repair usb host mode storage

Hi all,

First off GREAT ROM, but when I tried to use my USB port adaptor nothing happened.

After some digging I found that by changing /etc/vold.fstab like this :

# USB host device

# dev_mount usbdisk0 /storage/usbdisk0 auto /devices/platform/s3c_otghcd/usb

dev_mount usbdisk0 /storage/usbdisk0 auto /devices/platform/s5p-ehci

The usb storage works great.

Hi Locerra

my 2c

- touchscreen calibration seems off for the soft buttons, you have to for example press a bit left to hit the back button

- why is the back button on the right and task switch on left???

- nova launcher keeps crashing
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] deani77:
On my side Nova doing fine without crash. Come from PA 2.16.

Any idea where I can edit to make navigation and status bar a little bit bigger.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Technomancer:
in device/samsung/smdk4210-tab/overlay/frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/dimens.xml

change this to whatever you want

<!-- Navigation bar is taller in portrait. -->
<dimen name="navigation_bar_height">56dp</dimen>

and recompile

I think it is possible the buttons do not match touch sensitive areas because it was already increased and there may be something else hardcoded.

edit...

well, making the navbar smaller makes it even worse.

there is something wonky about the navigation button placement in the navigation bar.

it works much better in landscape btw.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] inflamess:
Thank you locerra!!!!

FINALY!!!!! memory leak fixed!!!

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] JemaKnight:
There's definitely an issue with the soft buttons in portrait mode. Otherwise it's all running great though!

Also, was Gapps included in this build? I didn't flash it and it seemed to be there in a fresh flash anyway :/

Great job in any case! Smoothest and quickest build yet :D

Is camera setting being fixed in this release?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Steve_max:
Had a problem with the latest build. If I set ro.sf.lcd_density to 160 (to get the regular tablet interface, as I honestly dislike the "phablet" mode), the tablet won't boot. When the CM10 bootlogo was supposed to appear, I get a black screen and no response. Need to press power for ~10 seconds to get it to reboot and enter CWM. I'm using LCD Modder to change DPI, as it has worked on every previous CM10 builds. Did something change in build.prop parsing that could have broken this? If so, how can I get back to tablet mode on CM? Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] camoto:
I just flashed, booted up and changed density to 160 using ROM Toolbox and rebooted and it worked fine. Something else must have gone wrong for you as mine is working great.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Steve_max:
Changing it manually worked. I guess LCD Modder was doing something it shouldn't...

Edit: I am on i815. I had 5ghz wifi working before on this device, at least in CM9? It was spotty, however. Worked in stock too, worked well there.

Now it wont connect to my network at all.

Question for Locerra -

Is it possible to get CIFS working with this? Can I just use the CIFS files posted here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1456152&page=4

or do new ones need to be compiled?

(sorry if I sound like a newb)

EDIT: nope won't work. Needs to be compiled for the kernel (and the kernel needs to accept it?)

What would it take to make this work?

Here is another thread I found for reference:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=837170
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] locerra:
The nav bar issues are due to the nav bar customization feature that was added. It wasn't tested heavily enough on the sw600dp layout (i.e. the "phablet" layout), and got merged too early.

For full butteryness we need vsync and triple buffering (neither of which we currently have).

The rom should already have the CIFS module included.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Technomancer:
Yeah, there is something fishy about changing density. I tried both doing it manually and using DPI changer and system (surfaceflinger) craps out during boot, with bunch of strange messages, ro.sf.lcddensity is not set even though it exists in build.prop, surfaceflinger complains about it, then dalvik complains about bad magic in some file. Replacing build.prop with original in recovery doesnt help, I need to reflash whole system. WTF.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] UgloBuglo:
Don't really know if this applies to "pure" CM10, but everytime I change density in Paranoid Android my tab won't boot either - the solution have always been simply to boot back into recovery and wipe cache.

Have done this so often the last couple of months (PA have had lots of updates lately) that I hardly even think about it :p

But, as I said, don't really know if it's the same problem here...
