Hi.I wanna to try this but somehow I managed to broke stock recovery and battery charging animation.I can go into download mode but not into recovery. If I try to flash something with Odin,it will fail and the tab bricks with "phone------PC" logo.Then I need to unbrick it,but it's not fully unbricked like before. This was happened when I tried to install stock Froyo rom. When I got it it was bricked,so I dont know what was installed on it before.First I unbricked it,then tried with stock GB,then Overcome safe v.5 and because all failed I tried stock Froyo. I also tried to install rom from external SD but it failed and I need to unbricked it again(because I can't enter download mode and can't charge it).Any solution please?

Do you HAVE to pull out the internal flash memory? Can't I just do this without the hassle of opening the tablet?
[Galaxy Tab General] vampir4997:
Dont think so. It took me forever to even find this fix for the tab. Its really not too bad to do. Ive never taken any kind of phone or tablet apart and i did this with only one issue(i broke a speaker).

what about cm11

Hi,

Wondering about cm11, have you found a way to use recent cm11 builds on tabs with broken or removed internal sdcard ?

I'm able to install and use official unstable cm11 for p1, but a lot of applications bug because of the lack of internal card. (camera, cwm, ...)

I've been trying to rebuild cm11 with modified fstab.p1 and init.p1.rc with no luck, the boot.img doesn't boot. :(

There's a NoInternalSD from terenceng, but I can't find any references to the modifications he has done to the nointernalsd build, would you have any pointer to help ?

TIA

But there are too much space in internal sdcard.

[MENTION=4718579]ChrisCTX[/MENTION] :

Your guide is AWESOME !!! THANK YOU !!! :D :D :D

I removed the faulty chip easily ; no need to follow IFixIt's guide step by step : prying open the back cover, carefully cutting the glue around/under the chip (one side is unreachable, but doing the 3*others is sufficient), cleaning it with alcohol then putting the cover back on was enough. No need for ANY screwdriver ; just a plastic prying tool/guitar pick, a very sharp blade, some cleaning alcohol and a small brush are needed.

I used the official cm-11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-p1.zip from http://get.cm/?device=p1 but did not need to do the following :

I do however encounter two issues :

- The IMEI is invalid. I believe it's due to (trying to) flashing many many ROMs to resurrect the tablet before trying your guide. I may try this guide : http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/general/guide-recover-imei-9-steps-t1264021

- I cannot download files because no valid SD card is invalid. I'll have to do some more forum digging…
[Galaxy Tab General] breversa:
Reflashing the ROM and/or rebooting a handful of times seems to have solved the problem. :)

This one is more tricky : most guides and howtos on the subject are for Android pre-4.4.4 and work by modifying some vold files, but these do no longer exist in post-4.x.

It seems that modifying fstab.p1 could do the trick, but that file is overwritten at each reboot, and I'm yet to discover how to make the change permanent. Any idea ?

some say its not that, anyway, i dident do anything and its good now.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fxrb:
Did you follow the advice of LexterAce in post #2 and install BBS?

If so, why not let it collect information for 5 to 10 hours and then analyze the dump? Almost always the dump can help you to find out what keeps your phone awake.

If not you could also post the dump and maybe someone else can help analyzing it. In the BBS thread are many useful tips and links about how to read and interpret the dump.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grgmre:
From RaymanFX's thread.

The general opinion is that he's made it faster and more stable. I haven't tried an 'official' CM10 but I can tell you that my tablets never run better than it does on this ROM. Revolver 4 by Gnufabio is a close third for me after RaymanFX's AOSP JB, but gnufabio's ROM is ICS, not JB.

As for installing a different ROM on your tablet?

(While in recovery)

Wipe all data (user data, cache, dalvik cache)

Select ROM .zip file from your external SD card.

Reboot after install completes.

Done.

- If it's a minor update to a ROM you already have installed you can usually get away with leaving your user data alone, but a FULL wipe is always best practice.

As for recoveries, I use ClockworkMod Recovery Version 6.X.X.X. I picked that one as it's also by RaymanFX and figure it'd be the best to use with his ROM's.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RED ZMAN:
Thanks folks.

Main reason I was asking Is I'm seeing there aren't a lot of updates to the Rayman version, and that note about why it was created was made some time ago, but CM10 Official does have nightlies. I was wondering if perhaps the Official version had finally gotten better, but I'm assuming not.

Looks like the usual wipes for installing, so I'll get it done today.

Any word about Polaris Office working?

[HD2 General] noobinius:
I apologize if this isn't in the correct forum. I wasn't sure since it's dealing with two dif os's.

Anyways, my question is Can I access files on the android jellybean partition from inside of wp7? I would like to be able to play movies, look at pics in wp7 that are in the android partition.

Also, what about vice versa? One last question. Wp7 seems to run very quickly, but Android seems to run pretty slowly. I assume its because it's running from the SD card. Is there any way that can be sped up to run at normal (fast) speed?

--- edit:

is it possible to put android on the nand, and wp7 on the sd so that the android os would be faster?
[HD2 General] Spaqin:
So.

Yes, you can access files from FAT partition on WP7. Few file explorers allow you to do that, just have a look at them and check if Storage Card folder works. They also allow you to watch videos, view images and play music, but forget about playlist support, subtitles or anything complicated. We don't have software to do that yet.

Vice versa is not possible since WP7 uses its own file system which Android can't see nor use.

Android will always run slower because it's an unoptimized piece of sh- I mean software. But you can try ROMs which take advantage of EXT4 partitions using NativeSD method - these are noticeable faster, no more waiting for minutes for apps to launch. You can also overclock CPU and use higher read ahead value for SD card (SD Speed Increase from Market).

Putting Android on NAND and WP7 on SD is not yet possible. It might be when Magldr 2.0 will be released (and it won't be really that anyway), but we don't know when.
[HD2 General] noobinius:
thank you

thanks for the detailed and thorough explanation. i see that you are also using a dual boot. how slow/fast does your paranoidjellybean operate? i'm going to look into ext 4 and cpu boosts. i guess i will have to reinstall/delete everything in my android partition to do an ext 4? and i guess if i go ext 4 wp7 won't be able to read it? i'm going to look into it. i will update this with whatever info i find.

---- edit

I'm going to try and use the roms you name in your signature area that you are using, and see if it works any better. what sd card are you using? I'm using a micro center micro sd class 6 16gb one. i'm getting a 8000ffff error in this wp7 rom when trying to get something from marketplace, and the droid is too slow. going to try the ext method for the droid. (can't dl apps on droid either!) so i will post what happens here.

---- edit

ok, i'm thoroughly confused by these instructions (somewhat vague in parts :( ) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1869673 Is there a video tutorial where it is shown what to do step by step to get a native sd setup for a dual booth with android sd and wp7? Do I just do it the same way I did before (install wp7, then reset / repartition, but instead of using fat32 i make a fat32 (how big) and an ext4 (or 2?) and which comes first (the fat or the ext) ? Afterwards, ALL partitions are primary?

i found this info for installing ext4. but do i create the ext4 BEFORE or AFTER i install WP7 ?
[HD2 General] Spaqin:
I'd say Paranoid JB is pretty fast using NativeSD (EXT) method. You will need to create an EXT partition first, but keep a FAT partition, because on EXT the ROM will keep only its own data and apps, the rest is still on FAT (just like now, but instead of data.ext and system.ext in ICS folder there is a partition just for those). Windows Phone 7 will not be able to read content of EXT partition, but it will not be needed, since there won't be anything worth looking at and all media files you will still keep on FAT. You will also have to make a backup of everything on your FAT partition because it will be lost, and fresh install will be necessary. You might want to backup your applications with Titanium Backup though.

For more information on partitioning please visit NativeSD thread.

I'm using a 8GB Transcend Class 4 card with 4GB FAT, 1GB EXT and rest (2.4GB) WP7FS. I don't have any errors with downloading apps on neither WP7 nor Android. Are you sure you entered that special code for Marketplace and logged into Google account on Droid?
[HD2 General] noobinius:
furthermore

actually, i installed the hd20 rom you're using and had no problems with marketplace. at this point i have hd20 wp7 set up, activated, and working. i'm just trying to understand some of the more advanced information in the forums about setting up the ext4. i found some very technical instructions (edit: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=534714 ) for setting up an ext2 with gparted via dos then upgrading it to ext4. i don't know if that will mess up the wp7 partition, and if i should have done this before i installed wp7.

i had already read the nativesd thread, and the extended threads from it. i'm afraid i'm just not knowledgeable enough currently to fill in the gaps of information i find in a lot of the instructions. but i'm not giving up.
