Smartrotate does the job well too ?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] paranoiadk:
Really? I'm positive it turned the whole thing (dialer+call screen) for me, but then that was a different rom and quite a bit of time has passed since I had was running it, so I might be mistaken. :)

Wi-fi in firmware version 3.50 works where not working in version 3.15. At the same external factors and conditions.

We look forward to updating, Master Daniel.

:)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] {Diemex}:
Wifi functionality has gotten worse since the last kernel update. Seems like I get 1 bar where I got 4-5 before. Also when I get home the Wifi doesn't seem to reconnect. I first have to switch of wifi and then toggle it back on again. This happens quite frequently when I'm at home. I always switch of mobile internet when at home so I don't accidentally watch tons of youtube and eat up my data. But sometimes I unlock my tab and then it doesnt have wifi connection and I have to toggle it and then I get all my whatsapp notifications...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ColBill:
SIr did you see Daniel's post post 677 [ROM][p6800/p6810/i815] (17/5/2013 cm10.1) Jellybean Custom ROMs & Recoveries thead? Daniel is working the issue. He is currently testing the wifi fix which also caused some of the battery drain issues. Unless he has run into a problem i would guess he'll release a new ROM as soon as he can. For us at least he plans to release the PA 3.5 version first.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Nuclear Blast:
There is a problem with the latest version CWM 6.0.3.1

While being inside it, the tablet rebooted with me.

My friend the same thing happened on another tablet, but during flashing ... just after the start of the flashing firmware 3.50.

I emphasize - we are talking about two completely different devices, mine and my frind.

But, before successfully reflash your tablet and 3 more without the same problems.

To be honest, I was somewhat surprised by this situation. I think it's nenormialno and almost dangerous.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ColBill:
There are a few posts that have discussed the issue with CWM 6.0.3.1. Daniel has been looking for an update - at begining of this thread or his other thread he suggests using CWM 6.0.3.0 until a new CWM release.

Hey daniel_hk, is the BT controls fixed with the latest release? I love the ROM except I use my stereo BT earbuds daily and need the ability to control audio. Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
Haven't touch that part yet. I need to compare it with cm10 to see what's changed. Might take a while to study...

I also don't have a BT headset with controls to test. Need you guys to test if something coming up :p
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] GOF007:
Testing the 25/05 kernel. Working good so far.

Edited: And there is the new release. Daniel, you are the Superman!!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Devian:
Hi,

Didnt update my tab 7.7 for over a year.. so it's time I do so,

Last time I did it was to open CWM (vol up + pwr), select the FW from the SD card and install it.

But it doesnt seem to go that easy anymore... cant find in the OP how to install this ROM, so I think i missed some updates the last year.

Anyone a super-short guide how to install?

Do I first need to install the Samsung Official Jelly Bean before I can load this ROM or the CM10.1 ROM?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
It is the same as before but you better update to a newer CWM6. If you are from stock ICS, a simple guide to avoid eMMC brick bug is in post #2.

Good luck!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] noreaga2010:
Running the 26/05 update, smooth, fast, polished, new features, once again great work Daniel ! Damn near perfection.

The default launcher2 from AOSP is quite primitive, no settings. You have to install other launchers to have those settings...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
This is the initial release of the driver. There are still a few places not yet complete. Hoping torrent issue can be fixed eventually..:rolleyes:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Devian:
Hi Daniel,

Indeed, nothing much changed. Updated my Mobile ODIN and CWM, and everything runned as it should.

One question,

Compared to the ICS ROM I was running all the icons now are pretty huge, and even the wallpaper looks like its being displayed in a zoomed way.

Any way to change it? I tried setting it in Tablet UI mode, but still the Icons are huge compared to my previous ICS rom.

Edit:

I think I managed IT, putting everything to 160dpi and than also the reboot.. forgot about the reboot..

Last edit:

Google Play Store is still pretty big, is it just the new store or did i mis an setting?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
Actually, Hybrid properties is PA's unique feature. You may get the sizes of UI and each app you want. Try to play with it a while and I'm sure you can manager it. No need to reboot too...;)

Good luck!

Logged in to post a bug/problem and noticed that a new build is up. :D

Well, anyway, this is a screenshot from the previous version (MAY09 with MAY25 kernel) and the issue was this: I got a calendar notification and the snooze/map buttons were cut off. Check out the attached JPG.

I'm not sure what caused it and if it still exist in the current build but here it is. :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] GOF007:

Daniel,

Do you mean the zip from Mega is ok?

download from goo.im is very slow. looks like i have to wait a few hours for it to finish donwload and pray no DC happens.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] paranoiadk:
You're right. And I was trying to make it work and kept changing dpi and the other figure and kept rebooting... That's as close as I got to having the "full" notification displayed. any other mode and the notification would be without those two buttons. Which is a shame.

Maybe if someone else got that sorted, coild you please post your settings? :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:

I have a new problem.

ChompSMS fc on me. Tried delete app cache and data, CWM wipe cache and dalvik. uninstall and try install = insufficient memory.

tried titanium backup restore = very long time still cannot done.

Tried market search and install again = but cannot find the app.

Any ideas?

after Market Helper & Lucky Patcher, i finally can download Chomp SMS but when install, i encounter "Unknown Error code during application installation: "-24"

---------- Post added at 04:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:11 PM ----------

I give up~! Using ICMess + default Messaging app for now.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] matsuru:
After some time. I try to install chomp sms again thru the playstore, and to my delight it installed and working properly.

So, previously it might just be a random error.

My report for 3.56, smoother than 3.50 overall. Bluetooth handsfree work with no problem.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] jkrell:
Daniel, 3.56 working well for me. Battery with Wi-Fi on seems ok, no heat. No issues so far.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] GOF007:
On 3.56 there seem to be a minor wi-fi bug.

After the wi-fi is out of range (I went out and came back home) its not reconnect.

Need to turn the wi-fi off and on .
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] jkrell:
I am about to leave the house... Will test this upon my return.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] wpguser:
On the latest 3.56 ver. and wifi does seem to be stronger. Right now the only persistent problem would be bluetooth audio control. With stereo BT headphones you can't change tracks. Hoping daniel_hk has a trick or two up his sleeve for this.

Thanks!

I believe currently Halo only works on phone ui..

Daniel, just installed 3.56 on i815.. Smooth.. No problems so far aside the auto-brightness.. Awesome.. You might want to check the file for i815 on goo.im tried couple of times and got bad file error at install.. Had to go to your other links..

Thank you for all the hard work..
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] TonyBigs:
I just installed 3.56 w/kernel as well. I formatted data/system/cache/dalvik and installation had no issues. Nice ROM!

yeah! seems the ftp upload of goo.im has issue. I need to check the md5 sum of every file next time.

Thanks for your report and sorry for those who waste time on that....
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sas_sas:
Ths for all.. No need to say sorry..

I hope time came to reevaluate GPS issues...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ColBill:
Observations of PA 3.56 released on 26 May.

Daniel Sir

Installed 3.56 26 May release and continued to have some battery drain and other issues, however, I did a clean install and formatted data/system/ cache/dalvik and download programs fresh from play store. Only used TB for load data - only for user programs. Things are significantly better.

Today so far i have been on battery just at 10 hours and have 61 percent battery remaining. Superb ROM! A few small issues I have noticed are: GPS continues to show no more than 4 or 5 sats (problem you solved once before I believe when you worked PA 2.55) and like others occasionally I need to power WIFI on and off to reestablish a connection. I can not determine the exact cause for the connection loss. It will mainly happens when i leave a WIFI area and return (have gone away and returned and it connected fine). I have also lost the connection less frequently while staying in the WIFI area.

Regarding GPS have have applied the faster fix app and the GPS fix in PMR neither seemed to impact the GPS performance. One thought is might be that the ROM is missing the option on telling the device which antenna to use. Not sure it matters but a suggestion anyway.

Again your work is awesome and thanks for your willingness to help one and all. Especially those who ask without researching the site for answers before asking, :cyclops:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
Thanks for your idea. I'll study the gps issue again. I need to update the net driver on wifi first. Which is part of the source from Athero. Hoping to increase the chance of native wifi-tethering. :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Nuclear Blast:
Daniel, battery drain came back and still here

70%--->53% in night idle|stand by mode (7h 40 m) with Wi-Fi and Mobile data on, GPS offcourse off.

GPS bug is fixed and now using of GPS in navigation soft is perfect - connect with satellites with lightning speed and stable.

I keep on watching!

Thanx, Man!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Devian:
I'm also getting the battery drain. From 40% to 0 while being idle in 10 hours.

Ps: My tablet was in airplane mode, with wifi enabled (but I dont know if wifi stays on when the screen goes off)

Lazy question here. I got a stock P6800 on honeycomb. How do I flash PA from this please avoiding brick bug? I am aware of the fact that I just need to flash a kernel with root and recovery then flash PA according to the procedure in second post but where can I find those files please?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
There is no brick bug in honeycomb kernel. You may flash it directly in recovery. Update your recovery to CWM6.0.x or TWRP2.x is all you needed.

Good luck!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] jay_993:
Damn, just updated lol

Hey, so I am on stock ICS but I have a question regarding your method of update. You say that to avoid brick, you flash the rom from recovery, then boot back into recovery then wipe. Does that mean wipe all i.e. system then flash the rom/gapp again? I presume so otherwise it's still dirty flash.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] teiglin:
From CWM just choose wipe data/factory reset. The ROM zip already wipes /system so you don't need to do it manually. The term "dirty flash" only refers to keeping /data partition across flash.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Nuclear Blast:
Daniel, any ideas for our hopes of battery drain salvation ? :)

Another bug of wi-fi: when re-entering the room, wi-fi password is stored in the device, the tablet will not connect to the network itself till it (wi-fi on tab) will be turned off and on again .
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Devian:
Tested the battery drain again this night.

I'm losing a steady 2% per hour in air-plane mode with wifi enabled and the screen off.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Kholargol:
I know this is a naive question, but I ask it anyway: "Is this ROM ok for a everyday use ? "

I own a P6810 and I hesitate between waiting a little while for stock Jelly Bean or upgrade to PA 3.56 now.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Sab3elbromba:
1st of all stock JB is already out and released and rooted too! Just headover to www.sammobile.com to download

2nd thing regarding the PA 3.56 yes it's a daily driver, almost everything is working, a few hickups in wifi sometimes and battery drain sometimes but nothing too worrying

The one feature that is not working at all is WiFi-Tethering
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Kholargol:
Thank for your answer ! But you have to know that JB is out for P6800 only. I've got a P6810 !

What means wifi tethering is not working ? Does it means :

1) you can't connect your tab to a phone in order to use 3G connection of the phone

Or

2) You can't connect an other device to your tab in order to use 3G connection of your tab ?

In case 1, I won't upgrade to PA 3.56 because I need this feature. In case 2, I don't care because my device is wifi only !!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ColBill:
Please note that PA 3.56 has a version for the P6810. I use PA 3.56 daily and it does pretty well. Many of the JB features are nice to have. :good:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sbalu:
Where can I download PA 3.56 for my P6810, please?I have found only PA 3.50 at the first page as a latest version.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ColBill:
Here is one link to get the ROMs available for the P6810, Goo.im: http://goo.im/devs/daniel_hk/rom/pa3, there are other links at the end of the first section of this thread. Hope this helps and enjoy - Daniel does fantastic work. you may find the most current release in the pre-release section but the links are not to hard to find.:cool:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
You may find it in pre-release and goo.im. Don't have enough time to try uploading to d-h.st which normally requires a few attempts.

Good luck!;)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Sab3elbromba:
Option 2
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Kholargol:
Ok, so I will install it tomorrow. Last questions (I didn't find the answer in this thread)

Now that JB is officially out the P6800, does it means that hardware specific features like project butter, hw composer are now included in this ROM ?

- If yes: is it include for P6800 and P6810 PA Roms or only in the P6800 one ?

- If no : why ? :confused:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ColBill:
P6800 and P6810 PA Roms were being built before the official release of JB for the P6800. Many of the features act the same as the official release - some may not........ These ROMs also have some nice features not available in the "official release version". One is the ability to change fonts size and the presentation mode without a lot of skill. Also, these ROMs run the most current version of JB - the official one is one version behind.

Other threads discuss development and modification of the officially released ROM. Your choice in which ROM you use is yours. The guys who built this ROM have worked many hours to get it to where it is today. Just a word of caution be sure to do your research on how to install it and the appropriate GAPPS, CWM version and a decision to root or not...... Best of luck and I hope you enjoy whichever choice you make. :cool:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] czach5932:

Is it repaired GPS issue in PA 3.56?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] ColBill:
For me the current GPS capabilities get me around without much difficulty. Again, the current problem for me is i can only see 4 sats - that gets me within about 12 meters. In one of the prior versions we had this problem and Daniel solved the issue. I would guess with everything on his plate this will get fixed in due time. Regarding the link location - Daniel does all the work and he should get as much credit as possible as he is a rock star.:)

Hello I have a problem with the sound in the headphones in all your firmware(pa and cm). When I check my video and I want to watch it on volume 1-4 no sound at all, and only occasionally in some videos are snippets of sound in places where the actors or scream or very loud music.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] paranoiadk:
What are the issues with the wifi drivers exactly?

I don't have any noticeable battery drain - ok, the battery might not last exactly as long, but I wouldn't go so far to call that a drain.

The one thing I do notice, is that when playing a video from a samba share on my pc, there's a lot of buffering and stuttering going on. I've tried different players, it's always the same. When downloading over wifi, the speed reaches 1MB/s easily (megabyte not megabit).

Any clues?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] sas_sas:
"remove the init.d script"

Please can someone guide how to of above?

Ths in advance.

P.S. Google search does not help enuf...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] GOF007:
According to wifi specs, we should get ~4-5MB/s on wi-fi G(54Mb/s) and 13-30+MB/s on wi-fi N(150-300Mb/s).

1MB/s is surely a problem.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] edan1979:
bit and bytes are different...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] paranoiadk:
54Mbit/s is the same as ~4.5MB/s.

Hmm...Might have to restore stock rom to test speed, but I still believe 1MB/s should be enough for SD videos. I agree however, not as fast as should be.

Dang, now I won't be able to watch cartoons with my kids anywhere in the house anymore. :laugh:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] edan1979:
I dint really have problem playing movie using my samba server... but thats the crazy thing about device... i wont be the same..
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] paranoiadk:
Just noticed VPlayer has a up/down arrow symbol which I presume means network traffic. Well, it almost never goes past 50KB/s. How am I able to get 1MB/s with ES file explorer and just 50KB/s with my media players (the file of course being served to them through ES)?

EDIT: Just noticed a new 01062013 build of CM10.1 with new wifi drivers. Probably just a matter of time until the drivers hit PA. I'll wait before restoring. :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] GOF007:
I think the current wi-fi driver we have is very experimental so it is normal if there are strange behaviors.

But Daniel works hard for this rom and I'm very appreciate his effort ^.^

I believe things will get better over time.
