[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Icarus1314:
Phone: Galaxy Tab P1000 16G (apparently the Euro Unbranded version)

ROM: Alroger CM10.1 Android 4.2.2 20130913 Unofficial-P1

Kernel: 3.0.94 HumberOS V1.45-00920-g9fcdd44

i been using this P1000 for about a year now

a friend gave it to me coz my old phone died

anyway, last weekend i started learning about rooting and flashing ROMs

thank god its been successful so far, lol

tried a few different 10.1 4.2.2 rom, seems pretty stable except few minor issue

i have done some research myself, but could no find a clear answer (or any answer for that matter)

since i am new to this whole rooting and flashing business

i think it's best if i could ask you guys who is more experienced for some advise

if anyone could give me some tips on the issues

will be much appreciated ^^

1. i have notice with all the 10.1 rom i flashed, the GPS never worked

could no get more then 3 satellites pickup

since i use the P1000 as my nav device while driving, i spand a whole night learning about this issue

then i found out that the gps.conf file in all of the roms, only had 3 line in it

after copy another .conf file from my roommate's S4, it seems to be working again

is this a common issue?

cos atm, on road i can only pick up about 6~8 satellites

but cuts on and off every now and then...

2. currenly on the Alroger CM10.1 Android 4.2.2, the camera screen flashes/jumps when lighting/focus changes

this happens for both front and back camera

i did not test this on other rom at the time, so no sure if this is a common issue with all 10.1

when taking photo its ok, as long as i don't move too much, its dosen't happen

but with video recording, it happens during recording as well, which is very annoying

happens when i am recording with DVR app as well

dose anyone have the same problem?

or is there a way to fix this?

i've been digging for a bit, but didn't find anything regards to this issue

3. the Screen-off animation (electron beam animation when the screen is turned off) dose not work

i seen it on other phone, looks pretty cool

so i wish i could activate this option

is this another one of those so called "wrong Kernel version" issue?

or is that because they disabled it when making the rom to reduce system usage?

could this be reactivated?

4. i know this might be a stupid question to ask... but i am gonna shoot it anyway

i've notice after i flash the 10.1 rom, my RAM reading when up from the factory 444, to now 487MB

some other 10.1 reads in between that figure, but the Alroger CM10.1 seems to give the highest number

even tho it's still far from the factory promised 512MB

dose this mean the total RAM availability can be adjusted?

or is that just a fake reading due to different Kernel version or such?

i mean the phone is now running much smooth then the factory 2.3.6

no sure if that is due to the system trip down from the rom (most likely because of this?)

or the actual 43MB RAM increase....

for the first 3 issues

i have tried wipe and re-flash as some forum have suggested

yet still didn't change anything

any suggestion, info, tips will be most appreciated :o
