daniel is a hero

Thanks Daniel for all your work and for latest update but I have one problem when I upgrade from ICS to latest paranoid halo I lost my files! Can't find them on file manager under folder /0 or on PC but i see it on cwm???

Abot pre-releases smooth,fast,stable but I need more test it.

Thanks again.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
For backward compatible, It has a few shortcuts. All of the following should contain the old files:

/sdcard

/storage/sdcard0

/storage/emulated/0

/storage/emulated/legacy

/data/media/0

/mnt/sdcard

... etc.

One more thing, /emmc in recovery is no longer exist in 4.2.

Good luck!

Tried the 3.5 version for a day or so. It is nice and the power consumption improved noticeably.

On the bluetooth front, I have mixed results.

It takes a couple of tries to have the headset paired and both phone and media audio work. But if the headset is turned off, on reconnect, it only connects the phone audio, not media audio. turning the headset off/on again sometimes has the media connected. Also, I can turn bluetooth off and on again from the settings menu to have media connected. But once during my test, it reboots. I also noticed that the turning off bluetooth from the settings menu takes a long time to finish. Still, this version is a great step forward. Nice work.

Still trying some tests, and the result are not very reproducible.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Nuclear Blast:
Daniel, thanx for your work!

2 tabs already using in russia 3.50 :)

some $ gone from Russia for one goooooood man.

Thanx again.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Diabl0z:
Thanks a lot but still can't find my files! I check the whole os files, only I can viewed my files on cwm

Thanks again.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
OK, then where are your files in CWM? Full path.

what version is your CWM?

Did you do factory reset?

Normally, the files in /data/media (phsyical location) will be moved to /data/media/0 at the first boot. ICS is two generations back, may be the mount point is different but you can still move the files in CWM. (I think you see the files via adb, right?)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] {Diemex}:
Am I missing something or where is the Halo feature. I looked for it in the settings and everywhere in the notification area, but I can't find it anywhere.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Diabl0z:
Thanks man I found it! U were right its was in /data/media u must granted file manager superuser to show files
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Nuclear Blast:
There is one question on our forum member who can not write in this section.

He's doing very well with WI-FI but as soon as he tries to copy anything - it does not work. Very slowly.

Modem TP-Link TD-W8961ND.

With the setting tried everything. With the protection and encryption, and without them. Nothing is changing.

With the tablet settings tried everything too :(

Even iptables looked.

It seems that problem in kernel - he think so.

One more question - link to CWM 6.0.3.1 is dead - any news about this version or newer one?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] edan1979:
hmmmm... a question that i need to ask.... how to activate HALO
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
I don't know if PA not release the source yet. I found no commit in there source for HALO just in their version. I'm trying to install the official PA for Nexus 7. See if HALO there...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] edan1979:
i think the 4.1.2 update is being uploaded to sammobile server... first firmware will be completed soon 96%... will download it and check the system files... :P

from PA V2.53

daniel, may i know the steps to upgrade from PA v2.53 pls?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Nuclear Blast:
I am not Daniel, but.... :)

Flash 3.50&gapps and wipe all cash include dalvick.

it's all
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
I just downloaded the source of 4.1.2 for p6800 to study. This time is the real thing. Hoping may get something from it. See if the wifi driver updated and work for 4.2.x.;)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] freaksamael:
one day you'll make the "THANKS" button to break...:laugh:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
If you're from 2.53, that will be quite easy.

You download the latest version in pre-release .

And the pa_gapps at goo.im/devs/paranoidandroid/rom/gapps (latest one is 20130427).

Update to CWM6 first if you're in older one.

Flash rom+gapps in recovery and do a factory reset.

Good luck!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:

Battery Drain still a problem (for me at least)

I'm still seeing the battery drain issue, maybe not as bad as before. Went to sleep at 10:30 with 40% battery remaining, and was woken at 4:30 by the alert that only 15% remained (which is crazy battery loss during only 6 hours time). I've observed that once it gets down to 20% or so, it drains VERY fast. Perhaps I need to calibrate -- but we have to do that manually with this ROM, correct?

UPDATE: I just plugged my charger in while the battery level showed 7%, and it immediately jumped to 20%. Clearly something is wrong. Is this a ROM issue or should I reset the battery stats?

UPDATE 2: I'm on i815 and had autobrightness turned on. Perhaps I should turn that off? Will also experiment with turning WiFi off.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] d0shu:
It seems that the battery is slightly better but overheating is still there.. Aside that only problem is brightness sensor.. Great job aside those issues!

I815

Some comments after 1 day trial:

BT: Audio path is actually ok, but the remote control's is malfunction. (no default audio player?)

internal u SDcard: OK if using a class10 uSDcard. :good:

Fail if using a class6 uSDcard, it will report error when a class 6 SDcard insert into the slot (also will fail the USB storage connection to PC),

Battery life: just 1~2% drop in 5 hrs sleep mode, very very good....:highfive::highfive::highfive:

Wifi: no problem

screen rotation: very smooth so far.

external USB card reader: fine!

Antutu mrking: 7868

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] jkrell:
What device do you have? And by "sleep mode" what do you mean? Screen off but what is on? WiFi? Mobile data?

Mine is not good and I'm trying to figure out if I can do anything to make it better.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] yeekli:
Used the D_HK's 3.5 for a day. I would say it's the best, most stable 4.2.2 JB for P6800. This morning, saw the Official 4.1.2 came out, decided to give it a try, love it, so much improvement.

Performance wise, d_hk's 3.5 PA build still beats the Official one a lot. I got more 12000 score on antutu test. With the Official JB, the score is around 9700. Hope Daniel will integrate many of those features from the Official JB to the PA.

Will keep playing with the Official JB for a bit more before making decision which one to use.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] gotohk:
I'm on 6800. sleep mode is: screen off, wifi on (no connection), modile data on, BT on , GPS on...^_^
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
OK, I tested HALO in Nexus 7. They have HALO in their official builds but the source is not yet uploaded....:(
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] jay_993:
Hey daniel, nice to see great work from you.

I am considering purchasing a galaxy tab 7.7 and wanted to know how exactly it performs on PA. Does it lag? How is the battery? Any general bugs in comparison to stock? And lastly, how does it compare to a nexus 7 overall if you or someone else can answer lol

I've been looking over the net but hard to find much info on this unique tablet...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] wpguser:
Using 3.50 and it's been really smooth. Noticed a couple things though;

1. Music control is not working via 3.5mm headphones or bluetooth (BlueBuds X)

2. Unchecked rotation at lockscreen and it still rotates?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sas_sas:
Thanks Daniel, it is a perfect work.

I have been using PA 3.50 for a couple of days and found it is faster than all Roms used before..

Pls forgive me and have to tell that GPS is not so good as PA 2.55 though it seems to be developed from the prevıous PA 3.15.

I am at a loss to understand what makes GPS is so laggy and more than that has not been fixin continueusly.

while the PA2.55 finds approx. 10 sats and use them in a short time the PA3.50 can find a couple of sats and not fixing easly, after fixing not able to keep it.

Compass is okay..

Hi guys, are you able to kill fully the applications by pressing longer navigation back button? or did you find how to configure it?

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] matsuru:
Hi guys,

3.5 is running great here. I have an old bug which I encounter every time I update new rom. I asked before but I cant find it. So here goes:

App: android agenda widget plus cant seem to retain its setting. After I set which calendar to display, after a few hours, the setting disappears and ask me to set data source again.

Tried clear app data and set. Tried uninstall and install again.

Any advice?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Pong Lau:
hi daniel, what do u mean by "Update to CWM6 first if you're in older one" pls?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
You may have select a google account to backup you system data before. Every time you wipe data/factory reset and install new rom, you will be asked for a google account. When you enter your existing account, try to uncheck the restoring data from google. Otherwise, it will download the old data(including apps and system data) from google server and it may take a while before all the data is retrieved. Then it may overwrite your existing data. It has nothing to do with sync. You can still sync your data.

You probably already have Titanium BU to restore data. which is much faster. No need to backup to google server.

Good luck!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
Check your version of CMW recovery first. If you're in older version, it may not recognized the sdcard in the right place. Update the CMW recovery to 6.0.x.x which has better support for JB.

Good luck!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
I don't know if you have done a factory reset when flashing. If not, try factory reset and test the GPS before restoring other apps.

In the mean time, I'll check if there are any changes in the GPS driver. ;)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
1. Seems tinyalsa haven't handle that. I'll deal with it later if not fixed in the future updates.

2. I didn't handle the ignored angles yet. I wanted to wait for the PA framework to settle down before changing these related features.

Silly me...:o Right after I release the 3.50, I found that PA already added an auto-rotation option in Accessibility Settings.

I think I'll keep my rotation settings in Display and will handle the ignored angles later. Seems no harm for one more settings.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ATking:
Bricked.....

Dear all,

is my turn now....bricked...freeze at odin "factoryfs". no matter I try to flash the cwm/ stock img.....

I did try to re-partition by pit, but still not working....

oh Gosh, I was using daniel_hk's rom for long, and which is very very good!!!!!

but once I try to flash from TWRP to CWM by odin..

it gone.... it all gone..

What can I do???

please if anyone can give me a hint!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] spidertux:
I have tried PA 3.50 on my p6800 for a day. So far so good. I noticed battery still drain and wifi stop working after idle and need to turn off/on. Now im testing official JB 4.2.1.

Thanks Daniel for your hardwork!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
Don't try to flash it again and again. Repeating flashing may really burn the chips. Let it cool down first...

It may not be so bad as you think. Just flash the recovery may not do too much harm.

Calm down and tell me what have you done, step by step?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] chrisrotolo:
Also facrtoryfs is largest partition bei g flashed and takes some time... Keep calm and be patient, how long did you wait?

Daniel, battery drain still here. Tomorrow going to say how much
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] GOF007:
My battery last significantly longer on 3.50 compared to the old 2.55.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] TheDoolster:
Nice ROM Daniel, I like it. It is nice and smooth with great battery life. However, I can not get the halo to come up. There is not even an option, like others said. But great work, and hopefully the new official JB will help you with the drivers? I am not sure if that's how it works. But anyway, good work!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ATking:
thx guys, here is what i did

1. I was using TWRP, but everytime when i flash the rom , it will puts all my stuff in sdcard in a folder call 0, then I think it is a bug, so I decided to flash it back to cwm.

2. When I flash the cwm by Odin, it freezes at the image below. Not successful and I wait for 15mins, feel like abnormal. I restart my machine, and it still work normally.

3. Few days later. Found that Daniel got a new Rom release. Time to fix them together!!! Try to flash cwb first but it freeze at the same place.

4. Downloaded the stock Rom, guess maybe working, but freeze at factoryfs

5. Flash the p6810_16g.pit to repartition , it works. But freeze at the second image.

Unum...

Ideas/mirrors? :P
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
Moving the content of sdcard to the 0 folder is normal. It was done at the first boot. This is to support multi use in 4.2.x. Only if you are from older 4.1 version the moving will take place.

If you can boot to twrp, I don't know why you can't flash CWM.

If you can flash a CWM or TWRP now, make backup first.

1. make sure you have the right PIT file

2. flash stock 3.2 HC as suggested earlier.

3. do a factory reset in 3.2 recovery

- 3.2 has no eMMC bug in kernel

- factory reset in 3.2 will format the /data (sdcard content will be gone)

The FactoryFS may take longer to finish(5-10min.) and there is a blue bar (progession bar) at the bottom of the download mode screen on the tab. The blue bar will go all the way from left to right when finish. If you saw the blue bar going to fast or stop somewhere in between, you probably have a wrong PIT.

If you can't pass 2, quit the Odin first before you unplug. You either have the wrong PIT or poor usb link (use the usb port at the back of PC)

Don't repeated flashing. Let it cool down a while before the next trial.

Good luck!

The Pre-release ROMs section at the bottom of #1 post

I have just checked all the links. They are good. I don't know if they are not compatible with Android browsers..

All I can said is to use a pc to download. It will be faster and easier. If you have problem with that, I can't help at the moment.

I just applied a goo.im account. Will include the goo.im link later. You know the upload speed to goo.im is only 30k in our area! It takes me hours to upload!

auto color also don't save, when I hit apply they close and when come back they are 'auto color off' again,

I'm doing something wrong?

Ty.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
Yeah, I can confirm that. I just flash back a few versions. Seem this issue exists from day one... but cm10.1 is ok.

The two rom's share the same devices tree and kernel now. And this part use Samsung's blob. It must be the AOSP platform.

Working on the new wifi driver right now. I'll study the gps related project later. :)

I can only find the one for p6210 but I compare it with my working p6800 pit in hand. They are almost identical except the mission Modem partition and the arragement is the same. All the partition have proper sizes. It is bigger but only filled with zeros at end. Will not affect anything.

It should work for p6810.

You may compare it with the one you have with a hex editior first.

Daniel, problem is still here!

Battery drain.

100%--->53% in night idle|stand by mode From 24-00 to 10-30 AM

Wi-Fi and Mobile data on, GPS offcourse off.

And - the most important....

It was switched off and very warm in the morninig...

I could switched it on only with pwr button+volume up.....
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] chrisrotolo:
dude, with wifi and mobile data on, it could be anything in 8+ hours, for example do you have facebook installed? also do you have SYNC on? what kind of social/email apps do you have that might be draining it? you cant narrow it down to mobile data or wifi without checking all your apps first. Sounds like an app may be holding a wakelock. Do you know how to debug that? there are apps for that.

I'm not saying there isnt an issue, but I have also have PA and see no unusual battery issues with or without data/ wifi.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] madstunt:
Can PA port benefit anything from the new stock jelly bean roms?

The lack of hdmi out and some other issues were the actual reasons why I didn't make a switch from stock

Not much, but there is a new firmware and driver for wifi. Can not be used directly though.

You better stay with stock if hdmi is essential. ;)

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] jkrell:
This is a known issue with this ROM. It's definitely WiFi related, as there are multiple reports of people (including me) getting significantly longer battery life with WiFi off but 4G on (I'm on an i815).

Hopefully this gets fixed with the new WiFi driver that Daniel is working on right now....... :D
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] edan1979:

Just try to read this thread before you will right smth next time.

This issue is well known.

No facebook.

Sync is off. (think so...)

any email or social apps - i don`t use them.

So... we all keep on waithing when MAN will make new release, as always - we know - will be better than the previous
