I am new Jelly Bean and PA. I just came from running ICS. When I am running an app that normally has a menu button of somekind, but in this rom or (JB), there isn't any kind of menu button. So I can't get to settings or exit in some programs that I normally use.

Also, trying to get this to look as close to tablet mode as is possible, can I get rid of the dock and have the menu button on the top of the screen like most tablets have had in ICS.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] matsuru:
If u see 3 dots on the multitasking button at the bottom beside the home button, long press on that to get the menu. The menu button is merge with the multitasking button.

Btw, there is an option in the settings to seperate the 2 buttons. ?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
The menu button is merge to the recent button in JB. If apps have menu button there will be 3 dots appear in the recent button. When long press the recent button, menu will be out. There is also an spilt menu button at settings. When checked, the menu button will be shown.

If you miss the look of ICS, you better switch back. I don't think google/Android will revert its look. :p

Anyone else noticed white noise with headphones? Its especially noticeable when say a movie is paused or when volume is low. This noise only used to happen when charging, but now it seems to happen all the time.. Its also the case with new CM as well. I am certain previous pa or cm did not have this..

I gotta tell you aside these minor issues and heat+WiFi its an incredibly smooth ROM. Great job Daniel, I cannot tell you how incredible it is that you have ported two of the best android roms so successfully! I must admit without you I would have traded my beloved tab sometime ago..

thx a lot. flashed 3.15 & then 3.50. it's much smoother than PA 2.53 / 2.54 I used to have. battery consumption seems to be a bit more, but still better than 3.15 by a lot. great work, keep it up!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Edwrib:
Battery in 3.50 is awesome!

And WiFi is always on.

I am really liking this Rom. But I have a lot less room for apps. I could only load about half of what I had before and I am out of room.

This is surely a battery stat error. :D
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
:confused:User app store in /data. Which is untouch. Same size as before. If you means the bloatware which store in hidden/preload. Even if you install them all as normal user app, there will be still room left. Some app may not compatible with JB and some might need adjust the storage location.

There must be something wrong if you encounter this abnormal issue... Can you give details on what actually happen?

One other thing. On first boot, after I enter language, home Wi-Fi and Google acct info, I get a blank screen and eventually a pop-up says that setup has stopped working. I have tried "wait" but I end up hitting back until it goes away. Is there a way to enter set-up after this point?

Daniel what folders should i delete with old stuff of previos firmwares?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
I haven't had this kind of trouble before but you can skip the account info and others first. You can re-enter them after finishing setup.

Good luck!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
Not really sure what kind of stuff you mentioned.

All user apps and system data are stored in /data. A factory reset will clear them all. Some user apps' data are stored in sdcard. Usually they are in /sdcard/Android and some will put a period "." in front of their folder name(try to display at the top I suppose) and stored in /sdcard .

The stock bloatwares are usually stored in /preload (a.k.a /hidden). It is unique to only a few manufacturer and custom rom don't use it. 4xxM of space is wasted now.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] d0shu:
This also happens on my i815 both Cm and PA.. I simply press the home button once when screen goes blank and solves it for me.. This has been happening since 2.55 and it doesn't affect anything once you are done.. I assume it is because somehow launcher doesn't load initially and you have to press home button to do it.. I didn't even think of reporting it since it was so minor..

the kernel seems to be running hot on the may 9th version i flashed it the first day it came out but had my sim in my note 2 and i have been using the 7.7 on the newest rom with no issues but havent been using it that much - i just put the sim back in as i am selling my note 2 ( my fourth one lol ) and even at 1.4ghz with a 98.58mv undervolt the temp on the 7.7 seems to be high - not doing much and it is at 33.5'c ? anyone else having this issue ?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] Edwrib:

If can help, I only had the SOD when turned WiFi settings to disable while sleeping and avoid poor connection.

When was always on they never get stuck at sleep or hot while sleeping.

just flashed the may 16th test kernel with pegasuq governor at 1.4ghz with my same 98.58 mv undervolt, iosched set to row @ 2048 seems very snappy ! i will watch the temp and battery life for the next 2 days and report back thanks for the update again !!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
I don't know why such a low voltage at 1.4G might work. Even so, too low a voltage may not lead to better power consumption. The cpu might keep on trying from errors and generate extra heat.

I just switched from CM9 to the current AOSPA version. While most things are generally smooth and fluid with AOSPA, I noticed some games being noticeably choppy and less responsive than in CM9 (Temple Run Oz for example) - also the CPU seems to run quite a bit hotter while playing them. Is there something I can do to improve on that?

Edit: Tried disabling Vsync and enabling hardware acceleration in Pimp My ROM, which apparently made performance slightly better (or maybe I'm just imagining things), but still not really smooth.

On 22/05 kernel, my Wi-Fi stop working everytime after the screen is off (have to turn it off and on to get it working again).

And the tab gets very warm.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
ok, i haven't check pa3 yet. will check it. Thanks for your report.

if wifi is off, data will kick in and cause heat.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
Edit: Yeah, the wifi will drop when no activity which I have tried. That means I need to dig deeper again :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] GOF007:
The new kernel must have another problem I think. The unit get very very hot oftenly(even with Wi-Fi off).

This is the highest temperature I ever feel from my tab.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
Yeah, I found out what happen.

The cyanogenmod kernel which we are using is a bit outdated. It doesn't support the new driver's power management. Thus the driver won't wake up after sleep and the transmitter will turn on that generate heat.

I updated all power management related sources and testing now. Two hours have passed, no sod and heat up yet... Runing a torrent for an hour without a reset/hang at sleep.

I'll test it over night. Will release it if nothing coming up.:fingers-crossed:

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] paranoiadk:
I remember back when I was trying locerra's CM10, there was an option buried somewhere in the contact app that allowed the app to rotate properly. I don't know if that's still the case but might be worth looking into. After you get the most recent build up (w/ JB drivers) I might look for it myself. ;)

Cheers,

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
After a long day, I finally have time to see the thread;)

I have read quite a nos. of articles on wifi tethering...:cyclops:

Like the csr bluetooth chip, ath6kl wifi chip is another big obstruction for our beloved tabs. (both 7.7 & GT-Plus). Unlike chips from Broadcom which have official firmware for AP and Authentication, built in wifi tethering is handy. That is also the way android framework handle softap. For us, we have to use other methods like hostapd which is not supported in framework and our existing wifi driver. Ad-hoc (wext) with no security is the only thing we have now.

To support native wifi tething, changes in kernel, framework and/or netd, wpa_supplicat are required. There is no blob from Samsung we can use. Since cm9 (which I thinks is the first custom rom for our tab), no one were able to support it yet. So it is not a piece of cake, as least not to me...:o

That is one of the motivation I started the dirty work of porting the latest driver from Athero. I need to change/modify many parts of the kernel to make it work. It is extremely difficult to debug and time consuming. I wanted to quit a few times even now...:eek:

I'm trying but far from success... If anyone has any good idea, I'm really open and welcome.;)

Please be patient...:)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] someth1ng:
The bugs aren't a much of a problem for me so to me, it's a pretty solid ROM except the fact that when you start scrolling, it's a bit spikey (especially the homescreen) at first before it becomes really smooth. It's just me being super picky though.

Hey Daniel have you any info about mounting NTFS SD card on the rom?

Just wondering if Im doing It wrong??...

Pretty sure what i read about the nexus failing to be able to read files of NTFS card would apply to this Rom aswell being 4.2.1?

Would like to clarify this as i mainly use NTFS due to watching movies and want better quality to need bigger size files than Fat32 can handle.

Anybody else have anything to add about mountinfg NTFS with this ROM? any success?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
I don't have the Tab to test now but I remember that others are able to mount NTFS on pa2.55. Not sure if the same way apply to pa3.0. I'll look around and comeback to you later.

Checked it on the web...

Did you tried NtfsSd? It was written by an owner of 7.7.

and

Paragon NTFS said that they will have a fixed version for 4.2. You may wait for a while...

Goodluck !

new gov's for faster scaling / remove lags

I which I could help you, but I can't because I'm not in into development.

As from my understanding from my linux desktops: There should be some patches for a specific kernel version out there into the wild.

I'm always surprised, that the ARM kernel development is so much split from the normal kernel development. The normal linux kernel always have the interactive governor inside.

But back to patching (I suggest it is similar to the desktop kernel development):

1) there must be a cm10-master kernel (vanilla)

2) for S2 --> automatic patch merging for some areas

3) for other govenors --> automatic patches should be available somewhere!?

As said, I can just compile me a new kernel on desktop (e.g. tuning me first some settings, as e.g. tick-rates via console menu). But once I wanted to try the brainf*ck IO-scheduler. All I did, was to get me the right patch for my vanilla kernel version and simply applied the patch which automaticly alters the source code by adding and deleting code. - The question is, where to get something like a vanilla-kernel for the tab and the patches, which implement the code for the govenors (a whole bunch of the are living in the ARM-kernel fork; on powerfull-desktop just a handful). - But why to hell did the ARM-kernel dev's removed the interactive gov which is in the real mainline kernel by Linus Tovalds?

Daniel: Do you have contact to more experienced dev's (device doesn't mater) who can tell you, where to get and apply some governor-patches?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
I remembered that there are some cpu gov. in pa2.55 and CM7.

Is SetCUP working on CM10.1?

Hey Daniel I just flashed this and can't get turning off the physical keyboard to stick. I turn it off by clicking the keyboard icon next to the clock. But then it turns back on.

If I go into language and input it says sec_keyboard under physical keyboard and the only option is default.

So I'm stuck in the setup with no keyboard. Is there another setting I'm missing or did I get a bad flash?

Thanks!

Are you using CM File Manager ? If so you have to go into that apps settings and change access from 'safe' to 'root'

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Android Development] GNUDroid:
edit:

we would need a patch like this:

https://github.com/M66B/cm10-fxp-extended/blob/master/kernel_cpugovernor.patch for the kernel source you use.

It implements different scaling rules. As far as I can judge, the code should be device independent, because all code is relative to cmu_max_freq and min freq. - Modifying yourself may be too much work!? I don't know who is maintainer of the kernel source tree you used. In that example are much to much experimental gov's implementet. From my experiences from 2 Phones and 1 Tab. Interactive, better smartassV2 are nice. Much more developed are hyper and pegasusq (implemented in some of in quite similar the exynos-dualcore s2 phone kernels) because they have an advanced logic for turning on/of the second core.

- Unfortunately I don't have contact to any of the s2 dev's. It is a pitty because, many of the kernel code should be quite similar to our tab (everything different hw, but graphic and cpu similar).

- I'm pretty shure, that at least the 'old' interactive or smartassV2 would solve the problems of some lags in the beginning of many actions.
