what would be really nice is an easy setting to COMPLETELY shut off the tabs phone radio.

when wifi drops while sleeping, it sucks up battery life using mobile data, even when mobile data is turned OFF. i took my SIM out, so now it's only emergency phone radio use, and mobile data STILL destroys battery life. i can't find a simple shut off the phone radio completely. i think Pimp My Rom had it but it didn't stick after a reboot.

very annoying.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] cakrabayu:
could you try turn on airplane mode while using wifi or not? In my case, I notice that it will suppress mobile data and network usage and bring different battery save.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
The only work around is:

set to auto-rotate and just keep 270 degree.

However, It has to be set again when the tab. reset.

Looking into it for some time, haven't find the right place to correct it yet..:p

Yes, you may flash over it and just wipe the caches.

I can't test the Play movies since we don't have it locally. But there is a long shot you may try:

Setting > Paranoid setting > Apps

find the apps might involve and change the size. See if you have any luck.

Goodluck !
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] nutley:
i didnt think Play movies worked on rooted devices, is that not the case now?

I have airplane mode on when i use wifi and it shuts off the radio completely

Hi, I just downloaded The Bourne Legacy from Play in HD and I'm running PA on my rooted 7.7 tab. It works fine.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ZhenMing:
Since the WIFI tethering did not work natively, yet, I tried the "WIFI tethering" from Play. it works only in OPEN mode and my notebook can connect to it. But strangely the SSID will not appear in my unrooted galaxy nexus. Anyone face these before?

SystemUI patch

There are some reports on the mis-alignment of the Navigation buttons in portrait view of Phablet mode. It was inherient from CM10.

After studying the source, I found this issue was caused by the Navigation bar editor which was also not functioning properly.

I was thinking to include it in the next build. But seems no reason to wait so I pack it in a patch zip.

I think it may also work for aorth's CM10. Please inform me the result if anyone has tried.

As a tiny New Year gift, Include is a patch which will fix this issue, flash it in recovery...

Enjoy! Happy New Year!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] el_campi:
The patch work in p6810 versión?

Thanks.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
I think so. Just change the SystemUI which is hardware independent...

Goodluck!

So no one knows whether this rom works with hdmi out or not?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] pixelsquish:
thanks!

i watched that movie on my tab 7.7 the other week but it wouldn't stream in HD only SD, even though i paid for HD. i own Prometheus and Layer Cake in HD and they only play in SD on my tab. that's my issue.

can you share your PA settings with which you are getting HD streaming? do you have any separate settings on a per App basis in PA for Google Play movies?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] songmeesay:
Any rom based off of CM for this device does not support HDMI out for now and we don't know if it ever will.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] pixelsquish:
so if i go to Developer Options, then Launch Tools and then look at Configuration -

when tablet is in portrait mode it shows height pixels:1224 width pixels:800

when in landscape mode it shows height pixels:752 width pixels:1280

so for some reason my tab is not using all the pixels it seems. perhaps when google play movies launches, since the tablet is not at full HD resolution (should be 800 wide pixels in landscape), it only plays the movie in HD.

how do i fix this?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] edan1979:
the missing pixel are use for the navigation button...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] pixelsquish:
that makes sense.

then crap. this is driving me nuts why Netflix plays HD quality media but Play Movies does not.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] edan1979:
try press the power button and choose extended desktop... it will hide the navi button...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] pixelsquish:
thanks for the suggestion. unfortunately my HD Play Movies still play in SD.

Anyone is using PA with V6supercharger?

what's your feedback on using it?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
All things about rotation

Since many people have trouble on rotation, I collect all the behaviour of rotation here:

0 degree is lanscape with samsung logo at right

other angles are in counter-clockwise direction.

There are different behaviour when you turn off auto-rotation:

If you turn it off in Settings, it will be stuck in 0 degree.

If you trun if off with Notification Toggle it will stay at the current angle.

However, the lockscreen seems don't care about that and go its own way!

;)

The best workaround is:

If you want to turn off auto-rotation and stick at one view

DON'T TURN OFF the auto-rotation and include Lock screen.

keep them check

and only select the one angle you want.

When the tab reboot. The lock screen will return to 0 degree. Don't worry, it will stay at the angle you set after you unlock it from the first time.

I have been studying the source for some time but nothing seems wrong. Don't want to waste time on this.

Up to this moment, I think this is the best workaround we have.

I hope this may answer your question...Goodluck !
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sbalu:
After a power off, my P6810 tab had became in bootloop.It was working without any problem for several days.Rom version: pa_p6810-2.55cm-06DEC2012-213712.zip was on.I had to flash back a stock rom to get rid of bootloop and than flashed the newest version of PA.So far it is working good.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] pixelsquish:
thank you! i had thought airplane mode shuts off all radios, GPS, Cellular, BT and WiFI and I wanted WiFi to stay on. now i see i can put airplane mode on and then turn on wifi only.

now mobile data can't take up any battery life until its fixed!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] pixelsquish:
i did a battery test for video. running PA 2.55 (daniel's first version) with streaming Netflix in HD on wifi with screen on highest brightness i got close to 10 hours.

now playing HD video that is already downloaded onto the tab in MXPlayerPro using HW+ decoding I am getting about 75-80 minutes every 10% of battery. also on full brightness.

screen is on default (vs dynamic, natural, movies) and miuie scenario is on Camera (default)

pretty happy with these results.

keep in mind i have all radios off except wifi, only a couple of things syncing like one gmail account.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] el_campi:
Is it possible that the previous version consumes less battery?

AUs
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sbalu:
There is no significant difference between the two version about consumption, in my opinion.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] el_campi:
Ok, maybe the battery drain it's cause for any app.

Thanks.

AUs
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] wintermute000:
I'm not sure the drain is 3g or the wifi card continuously cycling or something but definitely there.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] wintermute000:
Confirmed the wifi sleep drain is not 3G. Just happened to me today with 3G off. The battery goes down like dropping off a cliff. THis happened with wifi sleep on as well. Its a nasty bug which is driving me nuts because speed and DPI are infinitely preferable to stock!!!!!!!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
There is another long shot you may try. Reset the batterystats.bin

1. Fully charge the battery for a few hours.

2. Delet the file /data/system/batterystats.bin with a root browser.

3. Normal use until the tab shutdown itself.

This file record the charging and discharging info. of the battery. The above procedure will let the system recalibrate it.

Goodluck !
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] wintermute000:
Sorry its not stats, its real drain.:(

Basically, after a few hours of deep sleep, wifi loses its association to its access point and starts trying to reassociate/scan/whatever. Battery drain suddenly goes through the roof (like 10-20% an hour or so instead of 1-3%) despite being idle. This issue has recurred throughout various PA/CM builds with my HK P6800.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
To make sure we have the same environment, I uploaded my modem.bin for you to test.

http://d-h.st/4Vd

my version is LP7. If you are using an old one. Please try to flash it with Odin or Mobile Odin. See if there are any difference.

Goodluck !

I tried to install this rom

I was using Aroma rom before, wiped cache, wiped dalvik cache and wiped data/factory reset, installed this rom and installed gapps.

Rebooted and now device stuck at Paranoid Android Logo

Any help?

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

I restarted the device, now its ok...

But hidden wife networks are not connectable?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] yeekli:
Reboot to recovery mode and wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache again, then reboot. It should back to life.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] wintermute000:
Hi again Daniel

After some testing here are my conclusions (for my particular tab anyway). I was already using LP7 modem but I flashed yours anyway just to be sure.

- in PA, the CPU tends to stay idling on 500Mhz not 200Mhz, it only very occasionally dips down to 200 as observed in both setcpu pro and system tuner pro history graphs. On stock or stock based ROMs like Skyhigh, this does not happen. Because of this, I am only getting ~4 hours screen time browsing on PA, vs ~7 on stock/Skyhigh.

- after a few hours of deep sleep, wifi will lose association with access point, then battery life starts going through the roof almost as much as active usage, even if you force 3G off, I believe its the wifi trying to reassociate or searching or the like. If you toggle it off and on it fixes it, which is not an issue except the battery drain is a killer as it ends up losing 50% overnight (4-5% for the first half of your sleep, then the bug hits and then 10% an hour for the second half!)

The battery issues are deal breaking for me unfortunately so I guess I have to wait until a new version arrives, thanks for your help anyway.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] xseaplus:

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] someth1ng:
I have a problem...

I can't seem to charge my tablet and thus, it won't turn on - even if connected to power. If I try to restore, (volume down+power), it says "LOW BATTER!! CAN'T DOWNLOAD!!" in orange, sideways at the top right hand corner.

Ideas?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sas_sas:
Are you aware of the app called 'HiddenSSID enabler' "?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
Make sure your charger is OK. You may try connecting to a PC with the USB cable to verify. The tab should boot with charger connected even with a flat battery.

When in charging mode, you need to press the power button longer to boot. The battery icon may show first. Keep on presing until the boot logo come out.

Hope you just have a faulty charger...

Goodluck !
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] matsuru:
I had annoying "no bar signal" thingy happening to me for few weeks. The tab will display no bar (no signal). Usually toggle on and off airplane to get the tab reconnect to the mobile signal will solve it. But it doesn't now, I have to reboot to get the signal back. It is annoying caused I've miss important messages thru whatsapp and online chat notifications with realizing my tab is disconnected from internet.

anyone has this issue? How do you solve it?

thank you for your time. :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] pinsb:

PA 2.55cm (14/1/2013) update

After some rearrangements, I managered to squeezed my harddisk to get a bigger partition for Linux. Therefore I can built the first 2.55 for i815. For i815 owners, hope you don't mind. I just wanted to make sure I can before respond. Same as 6810, I don't know if it works, please report.

PA 2.55cm(15/1/2013) update:

1. CM10 nightly updates

2. Include the UIpatch and some minor corrections in SystemUI.

3. return to the CyanogenMod system_core since no more update in the ParanoidAndroid tree.

some fo the PA function may be disabled. Will find a workaround for that.

4. lower the minimum value of brightness for both manual and Auto-brightness.

5. Changes in wifi, try to have better power consumption and connectivity.

6. Enable the native wifi-tethering, NOT working yet! (so dimmed)

But, I buit the paTether.apk which is base on the opensource wifi-tether for root users 3.3-pre2

- thanks Harald Muller and the team.

paTether.apk is modified to support p6800, providing basic wifi tethering. A new device-profile "Samsung GalaxyTab 7.7" is added. No encrytion as before (because limited support in driver..), but using the access control may provide some degree of security.

This is my first app and I only tested it with my phone and pc's...

Every tethering apk consumes power, if you don't need this function, please don't install it.

The CyanogenMod Trebuchet is not competible with PA. Only tablet mode can display. Paranoid Settings doesn't work. The other launchers are OK. I include the Old PA Trebuchet here. If anyone want to have the original PA settings, you may flash it in recovery.

I'm finding problems with DPI change in this latest build (p6810), specifically interface change has no effect, I'm stuck on the tablet interface for all apps.

This issue has been anonying me from day one.... :(

I studied the source for sometime. All can be done is aleary done. I think it's the driver's problem.

When the signal is weak at wifi sleep, it is easier to sleep of death. I've tried serval times. When I put my tab in the livingroom (closer to my router), It has better chance staying alive. You may try enabling the "Avoid poor connecgtions" option.and/or select "never keep wifi on sleep" and pick a longer idle timeout. It works for me... I may have serval days without a sleep of death.

Goodluck !

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] matsuru:
just flashed the latest update. overall very smooth.

Found out my gmail not working. Seems i forgot to flash GAPP.

I also flash the PA-Trebucet the 2nd attempt on flashing the lastest update to get my PA setting in effect.

So the correct sequence is:

01. Wipe cache and Dalvik

02. Flashed PA lastest ROM by daniel_hk

03. Flashed GAPP

04. Flahed PA_Trebucet

05. Install paTether.apk

and.... the tether works~!!! yeah~!!! although no password. but better than nothing. :)

---------- Post added at 01:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 PM ----------

daniel_hk,

btw, what is access control? how do we use it?

It looks like a control panel which we can see what device is connected to the tether. When i enable access control, my connected laptop cant go online.

so, does this means that we can select which device that is connected, highlight it and disable it's connection?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
I thinks that's what access control mean. I'll test it with my friends later.;)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] UgloBuglo:
daniel_hk - how about a new thread for your updates of PA?

It would be easier to find your releases if they where in the first post, but since androidguide.fr have left the building it might be a good idea to create a new thread that can be updated.

...just a humble suggestion...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] wintermute000:
Thanks, ticked 'avoid poor connections' , this appears to prevent the super drain, but wifi still needs to be toggled off/on if device sleeps at all.

Better than nothing I guess! LOL thanks again great work and hope jellybean official does come out
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] someth1ng:
Thanks for your reply. However, it appears as though it is more than the USB cable or the charger. I have 2 cables - neither seem to work. It does not boot if connected to a charger and it does not boot if connected to a computer.

Holding the power button seems to do nothing - I can hold for 20 seconds while connected to a charger/computer with no response.

The Volume Down+Power doesn't seem to work now, either. Strange.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
::(It sad to know that. Seems returning to the dealer for repairing is the only option...

Goodluck !

This version is almost come to the end and only few things are left to be fix. Androguide originated this PA. I'm quite comfortable to stay under his roof..

May be a little bit trouble for you guys, sorry. I may give you guys a PM next time...

Task Manager

Thanks for this ROM, the first I've flashed on my P6800. The one thing I'm missing is a Task Manager like the stock Samsung one in 4.0.4. I've downloaded the apk, but it doesn't seem to install, even from system/app. Any suggestions/thoughts -- either to make that work or for a replacement? I've tried a bunch from the Play Store (IS and ES) but they seem to be inconsistent and, of course, are loaded with ads.
