[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steve_max:
If I were you, I'd return it to something as close to stock as possible.

One suggestion: grab the latest Odin-flashable ROM for your country. You'll get a .tar.md5 file, such as P6800UBLA2_P6800ZTOLA2_ZTO.tar.md5. Try to flash it through Odin, just to see if it works; if it doesn't, write down the name of the .img file that gave you problems. If it works, congratulations, you have your tablet back, and you can stop reading.

Now, Rename that file to .tar (or, remove the .md5 extension), and open it in WinRAR/7zip/whatever. You'll see a lot of .img files inside, including the one that gave you problems. Remove it, and try to flash this new .tar file. If the flash works, proceed to the next paragraph. If it doesn't, write down the name of the .img file that gave you problems, and repeat this paragraph using your new .tar file.

After a flash that works, your device should be as close to stock as possible. Maybe it will even boot, but I wouldn't count on it (try anyway). I'd send it to the repair centre only when it is at this stage.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rumpypumpy:
The tab gets stuck at 'factoryfs.img'. I'm a bit cautious since it is the biggest file in the .tar. Isn't the tab 'stock' stock enough as it is?:silly:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmaster1:
Thats...a...problem...if it takes longer then 15 mins its bricked...i have been a gt user and devs on other sites told me it was bricked. Maybe there is a solution but...i havnt found one. It should never take too long on one thing in odin.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steve_max:
Even so, flash the other .imgs. You want to be closest to stock, including the recovery (imagine the guys at the Samsung centre manage to enter recovery, just to see CWM: your warranty is now gone). Having all partitions on stock, or at least most of them, can only help your case.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmaster1:
The warrenty is not void unless they find proof of tampering with system files. So basicly yeah...everything that guy said. Get it as close to stock as possible and send.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rumpypumpy:
Right OK, I definately don't want my warrenty void!

So would it be ok if I flashed 'P6800OXALQ1_P6800XXLQ1_HOME.tar.md5' (minus the factoryfs.img) to my tab?

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steve_max:
If your tab was bought in Austria, yes. If not, find the latest version for your country at SamMobile's firmware collection, download it, and flash it (without factoryfs, if it still gives you problems even in this new version).
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rumpypumpy:
It was bought in the UK but I can't find the UK ICS rom for the P6800!

This is what is written about the Austrian ROM

GT-P6800 - Open Austria

PDA: P6800XXLQ1

CSC: P6800OXALQ1

Version: 4.0.4

Date: 2012-06-22

Regions: Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom

Since the UK is included in the regions bit and I can't find any UK-specific ROM, aren't all ICS-running P6800's in the UK running this Austrian ROM?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steve_max:
The point is not "what ROM ICS-running P6800s in the UK are running", it's "what ROM untampered P6800s in the UK are running". For example, if I return my P6800 here in Brazil, I'll put the Honeycomb ROM P6800UBLA2 on it, because that's what Samsung would expect to see it running. I really can't help you with the UK situation, but there should be an UK ROM somewhere.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rumpypumpy:
Quick update:

I've been let off with a slap on the wrist so to say. Installing one of the kernels floating about for the P6800 should get rid of Brickbug, right?

what is going on, why did adobe stop flash support, i noticed some of my websites that need flash support stopped working on dolphin browser

that really sucks big time. I am using puffin browser to overcome that problem, but i don't like that this is happening as i loved android because of flash support, are we moving towards iphone crap position on flash.

any ideas how to overcome this shortage

They stopped developing it because, basically, Steve Jobs was right. It's a buggy insecure CPU hog.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiveChicken:
This!!! Steve Jobs or not, even we we ask app devs, Flash is a big battery and RAM hog. May take a few weeks for some to get over it but we'll survive. I'd say, good riddance. :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Adobe has been announcing the end of mobile Flash since before ICS, so it really should not have come as a surprise to anyone.

Everyone who has flash installed will continue to get security updates for some time so it's not "puff - gone" but in the second stage of being gradually phased out.

You can take a look at Skyfire for mobile videos on flash
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
I disagree.

When Apple decided to not include Flash, HTML5 technology was not even on the horizon and most browsers were completely unable to directly display videos or use Javascript with any decent performance.

Due to various efforts -some based on Apple's refusal to include Flash- HTML5 is now ready for mass-consumption.

However two points remain:

- legacy flash Applications are now officially dead for Android too - this includes Flash Games and Flash Videos.

- HTML5 is far harder to develop for and due to various extensions neither really much more secure nor better at battery-saving.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waiters:
I restored adobe flash 11 from a back up from my oldold phone.. Works fine.. On phone now can't attach but if you want it I can upload when I get to a computer.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Yes, installing it from APK will work fine. Make sure you'll use e.g. Titanium's "fix market link" feature so you keep getting important security updates.

Jellybean also supports Flash btw, you just have to manually install it =)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] myself_pratik:
Hi,

I am unable to view the detailed message and Date and time of a meeting request in the default Email app in my Sony Xperia P mobile. Even when i select the calender it does not defaultly go to the meeting date. I need to manually select the date to see the meeting. I cannot see the meeting details without accepting it.

I have seen the better behaviors on HTC One V and Galaxy Nexus where full meeting details including message, Date, time, venue appears in the meeting request message.

Is there any setting which needs to be changes or is it the limitation of the phone app.My company is using Outlook so i have configured Microsoft Exchange server using the default Email app and i am unable to see the meeting details.

I have attached the screenshot of the meeting request. Even selecting calender also does not go to the selected date and time.

Request you to provide the support.

Regards,

Pratik
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MikeBuck:
I'm seeing the same with my xperia S, I've done some testing and it seems to depend on what version of outlook your using. The company I work for use Exchange 2010, if i get a meeting from a person using the outlook 2007 client i get the info in the body of the inviteg. but in outlook 2010 it doesn't put the details in the body of the invite so it doesn't display it on the phone.

Also it doesn't inform you of any meeting conflicts. I have reported this to Sony but i get the feeling this is as design for stock android app, the like of HTC and Samsung have tweaked it a bit, and sony haven't.

Mike
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] myself_pratik:
Thanks Mike for doing some research on the phone. I think Sony should do something for these problems as we customers preferred Sony over Samsung and Blackberry but this email feature is a kind of bottleneck for us.. As a senior member i do receive meeting requests every time and i need to see my availability which is really tough in this set.

Hi. Had same problem. Even nandroid recovery has the bug.

But i have my solution found. Now i am on KoldKaffee rom (it is suberb) - an the BATTERY WAS WONDERFUL

The failure was - that we flashed the Custom Rom with a not fully charged battery.

Okay what i do.

1. Loaded the akku - how much it goes - that i have enough for return to go back to stock 3.2

2. 3 x Wipe + delete Battery Stats in Recovery

3. Go into Stock 3.2 and do FACTORY RESET in Settings

4. after Reboot - shut down the 8.9 (turn power off)

5. USE POWER KABEL WITH PC (loading will take time :)

6. after it is full - you can install KK rom again

Try it,it works!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] djcasl:
Has anyone tried to install battery calibration from the market? If you install a custom rom, charge your battery to the max. Open battery calibration (needs root) reset your stats unplug the charger and use the tablet until it powers down by itself (do not turn it off with the off button, sleep is ok, complete off NOT).

That always is the fix when installing it on my Samsung phone. After that the battery acts normal again. No need to wipe 3 times, install stock or whatsoever.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] sbeddoesdesign:
A lot of sites say battery calibration does nothing and is a myth or something, but I tried it anyway.

I'll give the CMW battery drain method a go.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] aloialone:
I did the cwm method. Before do it i installed with odin a stock rom. I let the battery drain with cwm opened and then i did a full charge. Now battery is better. No so good than before but much better from yesterday. 4 hours now and its at 60%. I am still at stock 3.2. Ill try again for second time full drain battery with cwm and ill do a full recharge again before use. Hope this works.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] sbeddoesdesign:
I just gotta get the battery to drain slow enough to be able to sell it to a pawn shop now really... Heh.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] wuma68:
I did this!

I let my tab be on charge until it was completely full (tab on), then I unplugged the charger and rebooted in to recovery (ClockworkMod Recovery v5.5.0.4) and did a battery stats wipe. When i rebooted it first did that blank screen boot (same as when i installed the rom).

I did this 5am this morning and now after c:a 16hours standby and 1hour surf/games its down to 85%! :fingers-crossed:

I'm on KK 7510 ICS port.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] KwaZulu:
I had massive battery after flashing the P7500XXLQ8 P7500OXALQ8 for P7300 v2 (I came from cm-10).

I didn't think to check my battery charge level before I flashed but I suspect it was around 30%.

The new from was great but the tab died under general use within 60 minutes.

The battery level indicator was erratic- moving up and down between restarts and charges.

Problem persisted after full wipe and stock 3.2 flash via Odin3.

After flashing back to 3.2 i took the advice from astuermer and drained my system power, then rebooted into recovery and drained my battery for a further 5 hours until my tab was completely dead (yellow triangle next to the RED battery symbol on lpm animation).

Then proceeded to fully charge tab (while powered off) for 5 hours until 100%. Wiped everything and reflashed ICS rom.

With music player going, 3g browsing and full screen brightness on I'm on 94% after 60 minutes use. So far so good...

Thanks astuermer for helping us and kk for an awesome port:o
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] KwaZulu:
10 hours later.......playing music and 3g browsing for most of the morning and my battery is at 81%....looking good:D
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] djcasl:
Well some may claim it's a myth, but when I use a custom rom on my phone. I lasts three hours before calibration and 2 days after. So I am a firm believer. The easy way to check is, when your device claims it's running on fumes. I turn it off and plug in the charger. Then the battery charge indicator comes in screen. Claiming it's 2 third full. So that's when I know to calibrate.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] lrcquest:
Some hints.

Discharged the battery till system shutdown. Then connected to charger & the start of charging is@40%. Upon removal of charger, it says low battery & shuts down.

In cwm recovery now for draining the balance juices to start charging afresh.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] deolol:
hey Guys,

I attempted the cwm battery drain and from personal expeirence can confirm it doesnt work

I rebooted into cwm throught out the entire day until it wouldnt even turn on anymore

i then charged for the enitre day and booted into android to no avail, the problem still persists ... if anything seems more erratic and random than before, 97 to 84 in a minute, then suddently reported 94, then dead.... put on the charger, only works, take it off its working, but draining FAST..

Plan B... cwm charge to 100%.... clear cache, dalvik, battery etc etc reflash rom.... problem still persists and now its beyond me to explain why this is happening

will revert to 3.2

dont get me wrong, the first few days it worked it felt like new life in my tab, was having so much fun, so smooth, accapteble battery. hope this is resolved

As i wrote i did all these things. I did a secont full drain battery from cwm and a full charge with pad open till 100%. After that i went to cwm again with battery 99% i installed p7500 ics for my p7300 and same time(after the installation before reboot the device) i did a full wipe all things and also battery stats. My battery now afte 1 day 1 hour used time is at 59%. You can see it at the photo. I will do a third battery drain also with cwm after all that and then a full charge again. I HOPE I HELLPED...

I did discharge as much as I could in cwm 5.5.0.4 recovery. At some point it wouldn't start up any more... Or so it seemed. When I then later plugged it in, the tab immediately booted also, to Android. I checked battery voltage and it was higher than expected (a little over 3700), but I figure the voltage gauge is not to be trusted. Battery percentage was 0%. I left it like that (charging, on, screen off) for about 12 hours.

Then, I removed power cable, woke up the tab, and found the battery percentage still 0%.

Turned off tab, then put power cable back in. The animation showed a battery charging that was already 4/5 full.

I left it like that (off, charging) for 8 hours. Unplugged. Left it sit 2 hours. (edit1: Booted to recovery - wiped battery stats). Booted to Android, it showed 92%, but dropping 4% per minute or so. I ran it some 25 minutes, and it dropped to 20-25% battery. At the moment, I just turned it off. Contemplating my next move.

This is kallt_kaffe's 7510 for 7310 ICS port, although my tab is 7300. But I don't need the 3g.

It did fine for a few days I think. It was flashed at ( almost ? ) full battery. I think it went bad after a first charge, from near zero battery.

--

edit1: added the battery stat wipe that I forgot to mention
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] fred_be9300:
hey! could you add a few details?

- was your tab running (android, recovery) while charging?

- did you wait any amount of time after discharging in recovery, before starting to charge (Vlad_z's method assumes a 1 hour wait / power off).

- did you wait any amount of time after fully charging, before starting to use the tab? (again, Vlad_z's method assumes a 1 hour wait / power off).

Did you do all this with the Tab still running the P7500/10 port, or did you first go back to some other ROM

thanks

Tried this method today : drained the battery in android, then in CWM until it shuts off and doesn't turn back on. Waited an hour, then fully recharge, then wait another hour, wipe battery stats, reboot, blank screen, reboot again : reads 0% and turns off, reset again, reads 100%, decrease slowly, 92% after 40 minutes, everything's peachy... until I reboot again to see if this remains : reads 75%, then after 4 minutes 56%, then after like 30 minutes : 0% shuts off. Reboted, 0%, Rebooted with the charger plugged, reads 80%, unplug, reads 75% then after like 30 seconds 0% shuts off.

Whatever I try I get if I'm lucky ONE session of okay bat but it doesn't survives a reboot.

Can someone that seems to be okay confirms his battery stats survives reboots ? If yes please help me out ?

as said in another thread, i tried all things but can't get battery to be calibrated with this rom.

Everytime i recharge the calibration bug appears and always need to go in cwm, shutdown and recharge...that's a shame cause rom is good, beside this really big problem.

I always recharge when i get the level warning, at approx 15%.
