If you make a Google voice account and then download Google voice apk and talkatone apk, you can make free calls with your data only and any WiFi Tablet. Even from your phone using data instead of your minutes. Google voice sets you up with a new number just for use with voice and what ever apk for calling. Talkatone is 1 of many but I like it and then its free. Can also text with them also for free. I have set up an extra phone with no Sim on WiFi only to call with on WiFi, then tethered to my other phones data and called on the WiFi phone. Tablets do need a head set or your always on speaker. I use it on my I957 with data plan or WiFi for calls and text. You can also pick to use your main number or your new number when calling.

Nrvate, I ran across one other person who ended up with brick like symptoms when running this rom. In my case I was connecting to a Wi-Fi when my tablet died. No power, no nothing. Sammy repaired it with a software fix, don't know what that was they weren't very specific.

It's probably a coincidence that someone else had a similar problem, but have you heard of others. I found it hard to believe it was a rom issue.

Well, I switched over to the stock ICS 4.0.4 ROM, and I already miss the CM10 ROM tremendously. I will see what I can do to work out the widget issues I was seeing. Maybe I will just make custom uccw widgets and see if they stick around better than the beautiful widgets.

Maybe try a non stock launcher. I have hd widgets and beautiful widgets and did not notice them disappearing with adw launcher. That was some time ago. I can check again sometime this week.

Data Connection Failed!

Hi all,

I am using nrvate's cm10 rom and it always had connection issues (fail to init after reboot). I had dealt with previous lost connection by reconnecting or restarting my tab and it would work after a few tries. However this time it looks different. I lost connection since yesterday at 4pm (Bell). Since then, I am getting a permanent "No internet connection/Emergency Calls only" and "No Service - Selected network (Bell) unavailable" notification. I was just doing normal stuff when this happened (I was just playing candy crush)

I have:

-rebooted 100+ times

-changing APN (between pda.bell or int.bell)

-re-registering network

-changing LTE/WCDMA

-reformat and reinstall the CM10 rom again

-restore previously working backup (note that every time I do this, it says "Fail" in TWRP when it gets to EFS part, but rom runs fine regardless before)

I still get the "No Service" exclamation mark triangle icon.

I called Bell and they checked and nothing is wrong on their side. I tried my SIM card on another phone and it works so it is not the SIM card or Bell's network.

What should I do? : /

Much Appreciated!

First of all thank you a lot for builds!

CM10 supports SamsungKeyboardDock since October 2012 (with limitation but generally yes).

I'm not sure what should I do to make SamsungKeyboardDock working with your build 7? Maybe it's related to continuous error "Android keyboard stopped"? So I have to disable it and use 3rd party keyboard.

I was having a tough timem gettingn it working with gapps until I found the glitch listed about TWRP and was able to get it to work by wiping /sys, flashing zip, flashing gapps, then flashing cm again.

I can't get LTE to work though - all I am getting is H+. If I go into settings and change from GSC/WCDMA to LTE/GSM/WCDMA, it immediately reverts back.

USB adapter

i have been using this rom since it was uploaded here.

however, just recently found out that my USB adapter is not recognized any longer. with this rom.

My kid is going for a long trip all way to russia and she needs to be entertained for a flight time.

the question is: is there really issues with this ROM not recognizing a USB adapter, or it is just me needing to replace this adapter or maybe reflash this ROM?

any recommendations are greatly apreciated.

if no solution is found, i quess i will go back to a stock ROM.

thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 SGH-i957 Android Development] jd1639:
I have not seen that issue. I would guess it's more a hardware issue rather than software. Do you have a nandriod of a previous rom you could try. Make a nandroid backup of this one before you try.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 SGH-i957 Android Development] ykolin:
Nope, i do not have anything from a previous rom.

well, i guess i might try to go back to a stock rom, and see if usb adapter works ok. if it does then will go back to this rom and see the result.

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 SGH-i957 Android Development] ykolin:

i was refering to a USB OTG adapter

my tab does not see any USB memory stick within the OTG adapter.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 SGH-i957 Android Development] jd1639:
Ok, that's clearer. Then it's most likely the rom. Not the adapter.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 SGH-i957 Android Development] ykolin:

personally i'm little sceptical going back to a stock ROM due to lagginess.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 SGH-i957 Android Development] jd1639:
I've been happy with the stock ics rom. Don't see a lot of different between it and nrvates. You can use Odin to flash it.

I first created a nandroid of cm 10. Then flashed the ics. 're-installed twrp recovery. Then rooted the ics. Now I often go back and forth between it and cm thru nandroids and recovery.

GPL Request

Hi,

I'm currently working on a CM10 ROM for the P7320, these devices are very similar except for the mount points. Is it possible you could provide the source for the parts you have changed in the kernel and possibly elsewhere? This will greatly benefit my CM10 work. (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2554877)

I'm looking at trying to get CM10.1 (and then further versions) to work, if you have any tips on getting things like the display working that would be awesome. I've managed to get a kernel to compile and adb to boot up with storage, but no display working. So maybe even a defconfig for what you had working in CM10.1 would be good?

Thanks for the awesome work so far! And if this CM10.1 experiment works out, we might be able to get it working on the i957 too?

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 SGH-i957 Android Development] ElrosMinyatur:
[MENTION=3983675]CL0SeY[/MENTION] it is 4.1.2 I wish it was 4.2 as far as I know nvrate never posted a 4.2 rom. Do I run that command from the command line or is it an app from the market?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 SGH-i957 Android Development] CL0SeY:
Nah it's ok, I have my own defconfig for 4.1. It is the configuration file used to build the kernel - what I need is to figure out what features will work so that I can get some sort of working ROM going for 4.2 - I've already got most of the things nrvate had going in 4.1 happening in my 4.1 build.

Thanks anyway!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 SGH-i957 Android Development] ElrosMinyatur:
[MENTION=3983675]CL0SeY[/MENTION] Ok. If you do get 4.2 up and running for the P7320 could you post a port guide here for the i957? I know I am not the only one who would love to get 10.1 running on their tab.

Have you built CM10 yet as that is a good starting point, using the instructions from the top start of this post, and the binaries from nrvates latest ROM. I have sources for the p7320 on my github, which would need minor modifications to work on the i957. That being said, my ROM doesn't give much more compared to nrvates.

Once you get to updating to cm10.2+ get ready for merge conflicts and compile errors. I've fixed a lot of these in my sources in the cm10.2 branches but still no display working. (It does work in recovery though)

Have you tried a P7320 ROM for it? I have one in my signature. I had to modify the partition table from the i957/p5att cyanogenmod source to get it work.

Seeing random MAC address for WIFI

Haven't seen this reported in this thread or the CM9 one yet. I'm noticing that every time my tablet re-connects to the WIFI I'm getting a random MAC address. I only noticed because I have a static DHCP set up based on the MAC and the tablet wasn't getting the expected IP. When I turn the WIFI off and back on the MAC address starts with 60-D0-A9 but the second 6 characters appear to be random. Looking at my router settings the 60-D0-A9 part is completely different from the original MAC. I haven't restored my backup to see if Honeycomb gets the original MAC back, but this is definitely an issue with the CM10 build.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 SGH-i957 Android Development] nrvate:
LOL awesome catch! I've been hacking around with hardware video acceleration all day, and my tab stopped getting DHCP from my router. I said BAH, troubleshoot later, it works when I tether, must be my router.. but I just got the video decode apparently working, and.. confirmed you are correct.

Need to get some rest (work in the morning) but I should be able to troubleshoot at the office tomorrow... Sounds work applicable considering my shop's main biz is wifi, lulz. ;)

Honestly, this is

badass

though! In fact, I want to know why and how to make it do so when I feel like it. The idea of using a random MAC every time I connect to a random public hotspot? Been wanting that for a while for security purposes. Wireless providers like to track based on MAC for various things, which I don't really like the idea of... I'm a bit of an infosec nut..

Possible hardware video decode fix (youtube HQ, etc) ! :D

Well darn, now I know all too much about the video core "vidc" subsystem.. the hardware video decoder on the qualcomm chips.

Turns out the firmware in /system/etc/firmware needed to be a different variant. The version from the I717 Note CM10 nightly releases seem to work. For me at least, at the moment... Anyone want to try it before I get around to updating the entire build zip? It's attached -- Not as a flashable zip, but you can replace the files in /system/etc/firmware with those in the zip and reboot, and you should have functional hardware h264 decode.

Hope that works for y'all!

I guess I should figure out the WiFi MAC thing next, that's going to get annoying too. Then maybe back to hacking at the camera. Still really want video chat!

It looks like there is a bunch of overly complicated, silly logic in (kernel source)/drivers/net/wireless/bcmdhd/src/dhd/sys/dhd_custom_sec.c that deals with reading/writing the MAC address to various files, and generating a random MAC if some conditions aren't met. I'll try to dissect that later, maybe it seems more complicated than it needs to be for a reason, but I think I'm just going to clean it up to look for the mac address on the EFS filesystem and use it. After all, samsung put the mac address on the efs filesystem for a reason...
