Hi.

I really like this ROM and want to say thanks to Androguide.fr for his great work.

After installing/restoring some certain amount of my regular app I'm falling into problem with sticking on boot animation, mentioned here several times. I can boot only after clearing dalvik-cache.

If I install only a few apps it seem to work just fine (maybe for a while, not sure).

So I want to ask, is there a solution for this problem or maybe I have to upgrade from stable 2.50 I'm currently using?

By the way, the temporary solution I've found is to use Live dmesg app, with it device can boot, so far.

Whats the different between 2.54 and 2.55 by daniel_hk?

Or they are the same but with gps and wifi fix?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] taztoons7:
everything works on 2.55 or it's the same probleme like 2.54 ? Thanks for your back
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] gazjglusk:
why not try it yourself ...you learn and your feedback helps everyone else
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] songmeesay:
Did you do a clean install (wipe cache, dalvik, and factory reset)? I've tried to install this 3 times now and it keeps failing to install. Both on the original links in the other thread and the link you provided. Wonder if it's because I'm using TWRP.

EDIT: Nevermind; had to update TWRP from 2.3.0.0 to 2.3.1.0
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] gazjglusk:
I downloaded from Mediafire and installed on top of 2.54, reinstalled Gapps and Pimped with 2.1.2. Had re do some Para' settings.

Everything seems to be working fine. I use CWM 6.0.1.1
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] nutley:
installed over the top of a pimped 2.22 install. Everything working well so far, had to reinstall gapps but that is all.

Why don't u get a vodacom sim it works just fine with vodacom. I can't see how mtn does not support a device that that they sell.

Sent from p6800 running cm10
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sobofthewind:
li

Because i live in Iran, and we are prohibited and ex-communicated by the whole world, so such sim doesn't exist here and i can't buy one, also this MTN sim that i use has the best and the most beneficial GPRS support, and it works perfect on stock ICS (which i'm using now) but the P. A 2.54 doesn't support it's GPRS packages, otherwise it is alomst the best ROM i've ever used in my life!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] LSD DREAMER:
Sorry didnt know mtn reached so far. I will try and see what i can source from mtn South Africa. Maybe they can help or at least put me on the rite direction
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] xrayA4T:
I've made that mistake too.

Try entering the apn settings manually. On my wife's mtn south Africa settings:

Apn: myMTN

Username: mtn

The rest default

Downloadlink version 2,50 for P6800 is not correct - file wasn´t found. Can you please fix it? Thanx
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] neimovirne:
any new updates come ?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Androguide.fr:
Updated the v2.50 links, you can go ahead and download it.

Not at the moment for there is no new Paranoid Android version after v2.55, PA v3.0 is coming soon but will be available only for Nexus Devices as it's now AOSP based.

When a new official cm-based PA update will be released (if it does), I will build it.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Beerkan:
Is there a link to download v2.55 PA?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Androguide.fr:
for p6800 only : http://www.mediafire.com/?cwv4z67n7ilf9rn

I didn't build this one, I don't take credits for it.

Is it going to be available PA v.2.55 for P6810?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] FernandoMiguel:
do you have a source for the build/changelog?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Androguide.fr:
Well I guess he used those sources :

General repo : https://github.com/ParanoidAndroid/

Device Common tree : https://github.com/alanorth/android_device_samsung_smdk4210-tab

Device tree : https://github.com/alanorth/android_device_samsung_p6800

Kernel : https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4210

You can see the full changelog here : http://review.paranoid-rom.com/#/q/status:merged,n,z (go past the first 2 or 3 pages, those merges concern AOSP-based PA only)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] mf01mf01:
Go directly to 2.50?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] EddYTG:
PA v.2.55 is very perfect for me.

Will wait for PA 3.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] hawksnake:
Yes, 3G, wifi work as well. Try it with gapps 4.2
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] nutley:
pa 2.55 working very well so far for me. Even with the expanded desktop the touch is correct, was way out on 2.22
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sobofthewind:
OK I have two questions:

1.what has changed in 2.55?

2.what are PA V3 features?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Androguide.fr:
1) Mainly some bugfixes, it's a minor update, you can see the full list of changes here : http://review.paranoid-rom.com/#/q/status:merged,n,z

2) PA v3.+ will most likely never come to non-nexus devices, as it is based on AOSP 4.2 jb (as opposed to the cm-based PA that's until v2.55)

The cm-based PA's sources are still being maintained, but it's likely that no new features will be added before a long time, as the PA team is currently focusing on 3.+ obviously.

For the moment, in the v2.99 beta5 here are the main features added to stock 4.2 jellybean :

- Expanded Desktop

- The shortcuts in the 2nd pull-down bar act like toggles

- All the hybrid settings (per-app size & color, statusbar size, lockscreen size, phone mode, phablet mode, etc...)

- The tablet layout with combined statusbar is back

- Option to see through the lockscreen

- Lockscreen rotation

- AM/PM option for the clock

- A lot of background work

That's pretty much it for the moment, but new features are being merged everyday. But don't expect PA v3.+ on galaxy tab 7.7, this probably will never happen.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sbalu:
Will there going to be v2.55 for P6810, please?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] efjbdejong:
Does somebody know how to lock the notification on the right side of the status bar? When gaming my right palm of my hand touches the clock all the time, causing it to popup. Very annoying.....

I set the bar to auto hide but that doesn't work.

EJ
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] bassem.mohsen:
There's something called extended desktop option

it will hide the status bar for you.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sbalu:
Try expanded desktop!Keep pressing power button for a while and choose :expanded desktop!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] efjbdejong:
That's it....expanded desktop! Thx guys!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] phuong:
Hi!

How can we use the back bottom to colse activity program? may be we have to disable the expanded destop first to do it?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] bassem.mohsen:
I don't understand your question. but i'm answering what i know.

expanded desktop is option in the power menu, simply it hides the buttons and the whole bar for you, so you can enjoy the whole screen space, if you don't need the buttons while playing or watching movie (if you didn't find it, you can added to the power menu from settings)

back button can kill an application by long pressing ( activate this feature from developers section in the settings)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
Of course, you , the Paranoid guys and CM guys should take all the credit! I just followed you guys footstep.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] cakrabayu:
Thanks a lot for you guys who make this great ROM for free. Without your dedicated time, this would not happen to us.Now, we have brilliant developers here instead of relying on SAMSUNG to make it happen :good::good:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sbalu:
Exactly, you have just answered your own question.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sergani:
Revert back to stock ICS

Hi guys,

I'm wondering if someone could help with flashing back stock ICS JPLPA. I was on PA 2.50.

I believe I did something wrong, as I just flashed the stock ROM over PA, but then the device wouldn't reboot, just stock at the glowing Samsung logo. I've flashed CWM as well now and root_ics, but still the same thing.

One thing to note, I've put the Tab to charge, and found PA's battery icon, that's why I believe there is something missing and that I did something wrong.

Any thoughts?

---------- Post added at 11:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:29 AM ----------

Never mind, got it working by doing a full Wipe :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sbalu:
Did you use Odin to flash back stock rom?Run through flashing procedure without any error in Odin?Was enough power in your battery, meanwhile?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] heyjoe66:
I was having the same problem (so as some other people here) and it seems to be related to CWM and particularly to factory reset.

So for me the solution was:

- check all partitions for errors (using e2fsck -vcf "partition" from adb. involved partitions are /dev/block/mmcblk0p7, .../mmcblck0p9, .../mmcblck0p10),

- flashing stock ROMs (LP7, then LP8. not sure if it's necessary to flash both of them)

- factory reset FROM STOCK RECOVERY

- flash CWM

- flash PA 2.55

- use e2fsck upon /system partition

Have spent a week, since bought this device, fighting slowdowns and bootloops.

Now everything working silky smooth

I am sorry for that but your link goes to empty thread and I can't seem to find the info anywhere. Any help is appreciated.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ShadowFlare:
Simply speaking, edan is correct. Your Verizon Galaxy Tab i800 is a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 but

not

a 7.7

This is the forum for Galaxy Tab 7.7 that carries the model P6800 / P6810 / i815

A 2.55 build for 6810 possible? - As a last gift to the grave ;)

There had been a request some pages before: "Will there going to be v2.55 for P6810, please?"

@ Andoguide:

Also I'm looking forward to see a 2.55 build for the 6810. I see by recent changes, that you Androguide have a lot of work with the Pimp my Rom app.... but if you some would have time to compile a V2.55,

IT WOULD BE GREAT!

by the way to other 6810 users:

Because I there had been no update since a while and I'm still not really satisfied with the speed of the 6810 (normally it should be at least as fast fluid than my galaxy s2 (from hardware standpoint... from software point: seems we would need really new kernel + other govenors)), I tried a build from aorth...

Just as a warning for other 6810 users, who are now searching for other roms as PA development get stuck for our 6800 and 6810:

http://goo.im/devs/aorth/roms/p6810/cm-10-20121126-UNOFFICIAL-p6810.zip: Wifi ist not working for me with that rom, but it seems to be a little bit faster than the PA builds here.

Now, I'm back on the good old PA 2.54....

Thanks in advance!

Why isn't 2.55 in goo manager? I totally missed it.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] songmeesay:
You must've missed how androguide said he didn't build 2.55 a few pages back, rather it was built by another member and androguide simply helped provide the link.

Hi, than can you recommend PA 2.54 for P6810 users?Does everything, wifi, gps etc., working fine in this version, is this better than PA 2.50?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Pong Lau:
v2.54 on 6800

just wanna share, how i feel with v.2.54 which i've been using on my 6800 for weeks.

within this period, i've switched back to an ICS ROM for a few days because somehow i dont find any speed advantage with the PA JB ROM over the stock ICS ROM.

since then, i've figured out how good actually the PA JB ROM is, with the many of the JB capabilities (e.g. not everything from the project butter, as far as i know), PA functions in adjusting the screen layout to tablet and phablet modes for different apps, and how stable it is (i have no issue with wifi and navigation), i just like using this ROM in my daily driver.

thks a lot Androguide.fr and everyone involved!

PS: 1 minor thing, anyone knows a portrait boot image that can be used with this ROM?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] edan1979:
i've created one last time... just search for my post in this thread... its around the 2.50 to 2.53 period...

btw... there is 2.55 build... but its not being port by andro... working fine as well...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] GNUDroid:
PA for 6810: 2.50 is the last stable - do not upgrade to 2.54

Hi, concerning your question. I do not see any benefit from the 2.54 version compared to anything above 2.50! And actually i warn to use 2.54, because I had some trouble with crashes like "google search stopped" and so on. Wifi is working*. Bluetooth I never used. Rest is ok.

!!!!But it is not worth to upgrade from 2.50 (which is the last stable for 6810)!!!! Do not upgrade!

*(I had just problems with mine router at home (don't know the reason, it could be related to a mixed WPA2+WPA encryption I need) and had to flash a wifihowfixpatch.zip, which replaces the wpa_supplicant file with one old build of loccera

----------------------------------------------------

A personal comment about my 6810 experiences and feelings:

I have the tab 7.7 since march, and I must say it is one of the worst decisions I ever did!

Expected a tab which can easy beat an ipad in smoothness and speed, but in a good 7.7" size and a great display. But it seems that the 500 Euros I spend will never ever led to a smooth feeling on that expensive device. :(

In contrast my S2 mobile runs as hell! - Obviously because so many people work on that. :)

- Independently of this I will never by an apple, because I'm convinced about OS software and all benefits coming for an user from that. And I will never ever blame the heroes which are spending days and hours to develop roms! Samsung ist to blame and they should open the ALL sources for GPU/CPU! As for computers: I want to buy just a device and then want to be free what kind of software is running on that; let the people be free (so provide hardware information) to make their own.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sbalu:
Thank You very much for the detailed answere!

I have no such bad experience about P6810 as you described it, just on the contrary!It was a good decision to change my P1000 to this.I think it is a very good tablet!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Pong Lau:
thks edan1979. i had tried your boot animation when i was at PA v2.50, unfortunately i had the bootloop issue with it (see post # 1312) so i reverted back to the Nexus like image from you as well (which i must use as i also had the bootloop issue with all standard boot animation in v2.22, v2.50 & v2.54).

with regards to v2.55, since v2.54 is working very well for me and there doesn't seem to be any critical improvement and bug fix in v2.55, i haven't bothered to mess around further.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] RipplingHurst:
I've been using 2.55 for weeks with no major issues.

One side effect is that, as we use it more, I install more and more apps. And with all PA Roms/CM10 roms for some devices at least, you can't move apps to the SD Card. I have a 64GB sd card there, and can't use it for navigation apps, less used kids games and other big games, etc. It's not a BIG deal, but it's there nonetheless. There is no option to move in the settings/apps, like in the stock rom. So if you move it via Tit Backup, it says it moved, but actually it didn't.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
GnuDroid,

Seeing your post, makes me feel sad.. I tried to build the 2.55 for p6810 on my slooooow old pc a few hours ago and it just finished. Just started upload moments ago. I included some fix (work for p6800) for minor issues like the boot animation stuck.... I don't have a p6810 to test it and don't even know if it boot at all! You have to test it yourself. Good luck...

report that wifi not work.. checking..

Thank you for excellent ROM
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Beerkan:
OK, I justs tried your ROM on my P6810.

As always, I wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache then do a full factory reset before trying any new ROM.

This ROM boots ok, and looks like it's working etc, however show stopper is wifi is not working.

Reverting to 2.50
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
OK， I'll check if I had made any mistake on the source...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
I think I found the problem. It was one of the CM Nightly(ath6kl.ko) stop the wifi at boot. I just have a new build for p6800 and it was also affected. Therefore I can test it. I use the former coding to build that part again. P6800 work fine now.

The fixed p6810 rom is uploading now. I don't know if the same fix work for p6810 too. If anyone brave enough to test the new drug, please tell me the result.;)

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
The one just post is for P6810 which I don't have. Gps works fine in 2.55 for p6800 (I can lock up 9+ sats.). I think its a pretty good chance it works for the p6810.

I'm working on the update 2.55 but there is something wrong in the CM nightly on p68x0. I'm rebuilding now and my antique pc is trying its best...

Very cool, that you are helping us! For all of 6810 users I want to thank you for your effort!!!!!!

Same for me, as some already reported: The first ROM upload from yesterday: Wifi can not be activated. I will try and report your 2nd Version from the last hours tomorrow.

Hell yea! People in this forum are cool!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sobofthewind:
The most boring and disappointing point about this rom is that it needs wifi to be on in order to use mobile data, and that consumes the same amount of battery as a regular wifi internet connection.

I used to love PA till this... Hence i'm back to stock ICS

Can anything be done about it?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] theerachai:
not true. mobile data is normal work even wifi turn off

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] GNUDroid:
hi. i tried the newest of daniels 6810 build. unfortunately tje wifi does not work on my

device. can be activated but at least fot my wifi router i can not connect. also my own quick and dirty replacing of 3 wifi related files (see other forum) is not working? even worse, the wifi is completly deactivated after that.

other reports? solutions? i would guess there are new regressions inside recent sources.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] cakrabayu:
In my case, i can not set up apn. But when i was in stock rom i back up my apn setting using free apnbackup and restore it in pa 2.55. It works for me. Wifi and data work very good. Perhaps you could give it a try.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daveoz:
I also tried this on my 6810: WiFi works fine, GPS works fine, Bluetooth works fine. Nice to be back on PA from CM10.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
Sorry, I don't have a 6810 to test. But if someone else is ok, I think you better try a factory reset before flashing. Some of the wifi related data are stored in the /data partition. Only a factory reset can clear them. Whenever I go into problem on Blue tooth and wifi, this is my last resort...

Goodluck!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
I only include the latest CM updates. If you are comfortable with the previous 2.55 build, no need to upgrade.

2.55 runs on P6800 without major issues, thanks! Data, Wifi, GPS work as expected.

Only thing is the annoying misalignment of the Nav-Buttons in Phablet mode. Workaround with 180dpi is an ok solution.
