[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] AnttiV:
Hey, is it possible (any way) to get the option "Mobile Network Types" (or something along those lines) back? I know many, many roms have it, including many devices on stock roms. The option where you can select "auto", "gsm/edge only", "wcdma only" and sometimes "wcdma preferred".

I'd very, VERY much like that back since I live in an area that has super-strong EDGE network that plays havok with the 3G network sometimes and my devices drop back to "2G" since the edge signal is so much stronger than 3G. Some roms have it named "3G preferred" and "3G only"/"2G only", it is all the same to me.

Now, we only have the setting I DON'T want to use :) (which is: "Use only 2G networks").

That is my main problem with multiple custom roms. I don't know why it is missing from some roms and included in some.

If there's a way to get any rom to have that function, please PLEASE tell me...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Androguide.fr:
It's already there ;) Settings/Advanced --> you can choose HSPA only, UMTS only or HSPA + (thanks to locerra who made the smdk4210-tab settings app)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] AnttiV:
Hm? Where? I can't seem to find it anywhere?

Only thing that's close to it that I have is Settings -> Advanced -> "HSPA" that has the following settings:

- UMTS Only

- HSDPA Only

- HSDPA + HSUPA

Only thing that does is select which "3G mode" is in use once the device is in 3G network. That *does not* have anything to do with GSM/EDGE (2G) networks at all. WCDMA isn't the same thing as HSPA (and vice versa).

Am I missing an option in that menu, or a complete menu somewhere?

hmmm..... anyone have any thoughts why after I flash my i815 with the v2.52 build that the touchscreen does not. Device boots just fine after the a flash but for whatever reason I can't even press the Start button to begin activation. Actually nothing works on the touchscreen. Only options is for me to power off. For a test I did flash the most current CM10 and it all seems fine, flashed back to the ICS build for the device and its good. For some unknown reason I can't get this ROM to work tho. Any thoughts or input is greatly appreciated

Sorry if it has been asked already..I did not see it. Is there any chance of rotating the Boot animation to portrait instead of landscape?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] DakiX:
Nice dude. I will try later
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Astrix Ashburn:
First of all, Thanks Androguide.fr for this awesome port, and locerra too for the CM10 base.

Im waiting for PA..at last! As title say WIP, cant expect so much atm ;)

1) From Stock LQ1

- Flash PA

- Reboot recovery.

- Wipe cache,dalvik and data.

- Flash PA & Gapps.

- Fix Permission.

All good to go :)

Try few configuration all when smooth. :good:

2) Connect to PC

- Internal SD indicated as 2G-3G data disabled

- External SD indicated as 4G data disabled

3) Navigate with root explorer/storage.

sdcard0 - is Internal SD

sdcard1 - is External SD

4) Restore Titanium, try few apps and play with PA Setting - OK

Reboot couple of time - OK

Out of sudden, PA setting force close, cant do any setting.

Logcat attached.

5) Boot to recovery, wipe cache, dalvik and fix permission.

- Now, so far so good. will monitor and feedback if any :)

Keep it up :victory:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Androguide.fr:
Ok guys, i'm sorry for taking so long to release a new update, but i'm working on building PA v1.992 from sources, which would mean faster updates, certainly less bugs, and a smaller amount of work for me everytime a new update is released.

If I didn't manage to compile it properly by then, I promess you'll get a ported update this weekend, with both official and tweaked versions released.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] hammer of thor:
i cannot use the onscreen keyboard... it simply does not show up... installed another keyboard from the market but that does not show on the screen as well... how to solve the problem??
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] scoobydu:
Did you follow the first post instructions?

At first boot, The keyboard won't display, you have to go to Settings-->Language & Input-->Click under "Keyboard & Input Methods", a popup window appears : turn the "Hardware - Physical Keyboard" toggle OFF
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] hammer of thor:
oh yeah... thanks... sorry...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ZhenMing:
That is perfectly fine, but I'm more care about if it solved the memory leak problem from locerra version of CM10?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] freakmax:
How to adjust the lockscreen? I'd like to make it bigger.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] cracksys:
so far so good

however, the keyboard not popping up is not a FIRST BOOT problem.

the problem will reappear after each boot.

anyway, it's not a big problem but annoyance.

good ROM :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] mayaco:
Help me out here pleaseeeee.

Please everybody

I am stucked on paranoid android animation , nothing seems to be helping , any suggestion will be appreciated ,:crying:

P.S: I can log to recovery and downloading mode.

Thanx in advance.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Androguide.fr:
Thanks for your feedback,

The keyboard issue will be fixed in this weekend's update anyway, as if I don't manage to compile it, I'll be porting from sgs3 which, unlike when porting from gnex, doesn't have this issue.

However it gets replaced by another smaller annoyance : No soft-buttons at FIRST boot only (just need to go to settings/system/Navigation Bar/tick it on).

Will also be adding amoled screen mode and scenario settings, as well as haptic feedback control to Settings/Advanced (ported from the Galaxy S3 Settings app) among other stuff. Stay tuned.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Astrix Ashburn:
1) Boot to recovery and full wipe again; or

2) Restore Nandroid; or

3) Download mode and flash stock

Hope it help and keep us posted :)

Note:

Your post using size 5 :eek:

WIP Rom - Ensure you can survive if anything goes wrong :p

Happy flashing
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] mayaco:
Thanx Astrix I did all what u just suggested but none of them solve my issue the thing is I cant wipe and do F.reset things freezes at this point , with each flash (Stock and PA) I end up with animation boot and no much further from there , beside cant even switch my tab. off, , Any other suggestions??

Sorry for the font size , And ur efforts r much anticipated and welcomed with warm thanx.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Josvaz:
Check using adb?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Astrix Ashburn:
Can it go to download mode?

- Hold Power+Vol Down

- If yes, try flash Official Honeycomb instead of ICS.

- If possible, after flashed HC and still stuck

- Force reboot to recovery; and

- Full wipe in official stock HC recovery

Edit: I could not follow up discuss after this.

Much appreciate if you could post your matter at general section or any of the existing thread as not to disturb PA development thread.

Hope others will assist you too
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] mayaco:
Thanx Astrix Im working on it ,

Hopefully everything will go as planned and wont disturb you with my issue here and everywhere.

I really wish I could have that functionality back.. does anyone know how to toggle those options if the rom doesn't present that menu? Any dev-menu accessible via codes or anything?

Hi Androguide,

I don't want to be impatient, but I'm so curious to test the 2.54 build for 6810. You spend some time to build it (thanks!). Therefore it is sad, that no one can profit from your great work: The download is still broken!

http://goo.im/devs/Androguide/ParanoidAndroid/P6810/pa_p6810-2.54-10NOV.2012-190241+4.2goodies.zip

gives:

"The file you requested was not found"

Both failed from desktop browserand also from goomanager (I tried several times each of the last 3 days) . It is definitely broken! The file size reported is: Size: 174.89 MB

Can you upload again your work?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Androguide.fr:
Re-uploading, don't know what's wrong with goo.im it shows up in my folder but can't be downloaded.

Sorry about that guys, I'm pretty busy these days (but PA is still in v2.54 as they're moving on to v3.0 which'll be for Nexus devices only as it's AOSP-based)

Thank you very much!Can we read the changelog somewhere, please?I'm going to try it, I hope there is no bootloop like in the previous version.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] deani77:
That means PA Team will discontinued supporting non Nexus device anymore or they will continue using CM source for non Nexus device?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] AnttiV:
THAT interests me greatly, too. Somehow I can't believe that they'd be going full Nexus-only for this, because it sounds incredibly dumb. Sorry for anybody that thinks otherwise, but limiting something on this scale to just the couple of Nexus devices sounds unbelievably.. well, stupid.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Androguide.fr:
The CM source will still be maintained and people can still submit patches through gerrit, but I doubt any new "official" incremental version (i.e 2.55) will be released, as a v2.99 beta has been released on nexus devices, based on AOSP 4.2 (Running it on my nexus 7 right now).

The "core" of the team (Paul (molesarecoming) Jesùs (D4rKn3SsyS) & the new guy Aaron (aaronsuperuser)) will be focusing on the AOSP-based branch from now on, quite sadly for us.

Force close : Gmail .

Force close : clockwork .

Play store is not here .

but it's really fast .

I have wipe all data , and factory reset , but it's the same , FC : Gmail & Clock , play store is not here .

I come back to 2.50 :(
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] AnttiV:
FC gmail and no Play Store sounds like you didn't install gapps after update...?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Androguide.fr:
Forgot to mention you have to flash the 4.2 gapps along with the rom

I have downloaded the 2.54, then flash the rom, after that flash the 4.2 gapps from the link you gave. But strangely, Google Search always getting force closed, and whenever I'm trying to download from play store, when its finishes download, returning error : 'Invalid download URL' which prevents me from installing any app from the play store..

anyone experiences this too?

for now rolling back to 2.50..

maybe I was a bit too excited about the new 4.2 gapps, XD
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sbalu:
Bad news!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] edan1979:
first... goto setting --> find play store... clear data... then try reintalling...

google search... you nned to use root explorer or any file manager with root capabilities... goto system/apps and delete velvet.odex

hope that's help
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] tama_dc:
I have tried the play store clear data thing, but seems no help, will keep trying..

anyway, going to try it again now, update coming asap, thanks for the help! :)

update: the market thing is solved with clear data + not enabling the 'keep my tablet backed up with this account' option

update2: after deleting velvet.odex, no more random Google Search FC

update3: when I'm selecting option 'Yes, I'm in' in the Google Now app, then bang, FC again, from the debug I pressume the error is in the com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox (runtime exception in the app)..

so yes now no more random Google Search FC, but still can't access Google Now.

guess I'll stick with this for a while,

First impression on 2.54 for 6810 and a wifi issue

Just installed yesterday evening. I had no real time to test, but it seems to be ok. I had no problem with the playstore.

BUT one thing I want to share: A Wifi issue.

Had it already some when on PA ROM (don't ask me which version).

I could NOT connect to my wifi network at home (Router: "Fritzbox" (it is very common in germany); DHCP; WPA2; no mac-filter device restriction). Also for this 2.54 build.

Strangely I can connect to the wifi at my university (also DHCP; WPA2)!

Solution:

There is a flashable zip-patch "wifi hot fix" for the old CM9 from locerra here in this forum (simply search XDA).

This patch also works with the new CM10 and also with these PA ROMs! :) Applying this patch brings my tablet back into my home Wifi!

Because this is strange, I took a look into the flash zip-archive and only one file is replaced: the wpa_supplicant in /system/bin.

There must be an bug in the wpa_supplicant binary in the newer PA ROMs. Therefore simply use the old patch if you facing problems with some wifi-networks like me.

Because I found that the wpa_supplicant from CM9 is quite old, I prepared at new flash able zip with the wpa_supplicant from locerra's cm-10-20121107-UNOFFICIAL-p6810.zip build. (Usual method: Winrar + open old zip + deleted old file in zip + dragged new wpa_supplicant into right arvchive folder and save zip)

With this small work-around the 2.54 6810 seems to be working quite good in this first testing.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ErikJanVens:
As far as I understand Samsung has now officially announced that they will not bring out ICS for the SGT 7.7 in the Netherlands. So, I decided to look around for another solution. I upgraded my P6800 to ICS with the Austria ROM. That's when I discovered how easy upgrading the firmware can be.

So, I looked further and found your description how to upgrade to JB with ParanoidAndroid. I followed your instructions and literally a few minutes later I had a running Android 4.1.2 from the 2.54 ParanoidAndroid distribution. The only "problem" I encountered was during inital setup of JB. To initialize the Wifi I switched to the settings. When Wifi ran, there was no "back"-button yet and the only way I could get back to the setup was to reboot the tablet and start over. Oh, and my favourite northern lights live wallpaper is no longer available.

Other than that, the tablet runs really smooth and I'm very happy.

Thank you.

This reminds me of the troubles I had connecting my Popcorn Hour mediaplayer to my Fritzbox 7270 when the Popcorn Hour's latest firmware came out. It turned out I was not the only one. On the Popcorn Hour board we found out that by setting the Fritzbox to WPA2 only (not TKIP, and not WPA+WPA2) the Popcorn Hour and all other devices connected correctly. Could be a similar problem.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] squarooticus:
In case it helps anyone else...

I had a problem about two weeks ago in which I wound up reinstalling PA from scratch using CWM. The problems I ran into were, in order:

The tablet gradually became less and less stable over a course of weeks, until finally it ended up in a bootloop that would never end.

I attempted to wipe data, but this failed with CWM crashing and rebooting the tablet.

I narrowed the problem down to the data partition: formatting /data would simply reboot the tablet.

It occurred to me that this might be a problem like the one I ran into with tablet encryption, in which I had to format the partition manually with adb to bypass the mount-and-save-some-data-before-formatting behavior CWM's /data formatting. So, I did this (adb while in CWM) and voila! problem solved. Formatting /data from within CWM works now, as well, because CWM doesn't crash trying to mount /data.

The final thing I noticed was that a *clean install* from a formatted /system of PA 2.20 resulted in a /system partition with errors, something that makes no sense. Nonetheless, it is what it is, so my modus operandi going forward will be to fsck the /system, /cache, and /data after flashing and before rebooting into Android.

My P6810 has been completely stable and smooth as silk since then: I suspect filesystem corruption was responsible for the problems I was seeing before the reinstall. I've checked multiple times since the install, and the filesystems remain clean on reboot. Would love to know exactly how this happened, as journalled ext4 should avoid integrity issues even on an unclean reboot... and AFAICT there was no such unclean reboot involved unless CWM doesn't sync after flashing or something equally unlikely.

Although not specific to PA, here are two changes I would propose to CWM to make this sort of thing less of a problem going forward:

e2fsck -cfy each of /system, /cache, and /data after flashing: that seems like a reasonable policy alternative to doing the check every 20 boots like a Linux PC does, but still makes sure it gets done occasionally.

Add an option to CWM to format /data without mounting/trying to save anything. This would have saved an hour of annoyance on my part.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] AnttiV:
What? This troubles me greatly, as I live nearby (Finland) and what happens in the rest of the Europe usually spreads to Finland too. I'm really, really, REALLY hoping this is not true, as Samsung has multiple times promised an ICS upgrade for the 7.7. At least Samsung Finland still lists the ICS update for the 7.7 as "Q4/2012".

Can you give me any links to this? Is it really confirmed, officially, by Samsung Netherlands, or you just heard it from someone? I can't find any mention of it in English speaking websites.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ErikJanVens:
I heard it from someone who's had a personal correspondence with Samsung. I'm trying to get him to show the correspondence.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] squarooticus:
Does this become irrelevant if Samsung ever actually releases the relevant Exynos code (either as NVidia-like blobs or, better yet, source)? Frankly, I wouldn't want to go back to crippled vendor-supplied versions of Android at this point: an official JB release for my P6810 would be great for the binaries it would provide developers, but I doubt I would ever install it.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] taztoons7:
it's not good . google search crach , wifi crach , i can stay connect most than 2 minutes , and i have p6810 ,so without wifi i can use my tab :) . I return on 2.50 and wait for a new release .
