[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] daniel_hk:
With a few requests from tab-plus owners, I started building ROMs for tab-plus. I don't want to ignor anyone so built for all models.

I can't reply all post because I don't have the tab to test. However, I tried to answer all PMs as detail as possible. Once a while in these few months, I received a few hostile PMs, calling me names, etc. I might have asked too many questions. I don't have the ability to guess what model or which ROM if they are not mentioned. I don't know why asking for a screen shot, a video or details would be too much for someone.

Anyway, I over estimated myself to support a device I don't have. I have spent too much resource and I don't think I can do this any more. Bye. :)

*** As a closure, I include all model in this final build. See my 7.7 thread for details ***

This is a homemake(omni's term) build of the open ROM Omni4.4.2 for the Samsung GalaxyTab Plus.

Although some features proposed(eg. Multiwindow) are not yet implement, it is worth trying and we are very lucky to follow this main stream! :D

Release notes:

2014/7/22

Omni 4.4.4 still use the 4.4.4r1 tree. I worked on the kernel again to improve performance. GPU is boost to 400Mhz which increase Antutu score by 2k+. zRAM support and KSM upgrade are also included.

2014/6/7

Omni is the first few release 4.4.3r1.1. Customer IR driver is added. You can enjoy all the IR remote apps now. Major update from Bluez also included. No much progress but 4.4.3r1.1 is definitely a hit. Cheers!

History

2014/5/4

Trying a few settings in Linaro, including O3 optimization. No apparent different... May be the blobs are bottlenecks. Switch back to original toolchain. In this build, charging animation is fixed, Lockscreen rotation is fixed and bluetooth update from Bluez. I haven't encounter DSP manager crash. Don't know if it is fixed.:laugh:

2014/4/12

This build included all the fixes in my cm11 and so as the only minor issue...I built this with the Linaro toolchain 4.7.4 for both kernel and platform. Tested it for a few hours and no observable bug with Linaro. I'll let you guys to see if there are any performance difference and issues with Linaro. ;)

2014/3/30

No progress on the rotation issue. Tracing through the kernel, driver and frameworks. Lots of changes since 4.4... :cyclops:

There are some major updates in Omni and it's been too long for an update. Wifi-tethering is working now. Some patch to the wifi driver. Hoping to make it more stable. Top mic is enabled in the driver now. Hoping better quality during calls.

AFH might need longer to upload, try goo first.

2014/3/10

It's been too long for an Omni update. There are some cool Quick Settings features which are unique to Omni. In the last two builds, I had to disable some of them to avoid SystemUI from crash. I finally pull everything together this weekend. We are now having full features of Omni.

Recent menu and screenshots are free from glitches now. Rotation glitches are still there... Some fixes in bluetooth. Hoping it is more stable.

For some unknow reason, pa_gapp-micro crash some system app. eg. SystemUI.

Don't flash pa_gapps-micro to this Omni. Others pa_gapps are OK.

2014/2/9

It was a productive week. I finally port bluez5 to Android 4.4! Although only pairing and file transfer is working, it is a hugh step for us. bluez.org team is working on other services now. Very happy that we are the first device having bluetooth working without bluedroid! Cheers! :highfive:

It's sad that CM11 needs extra care so it's Omni again. In this build, GPS is fixed. Multi-window will be an option from now. Omni can merge su to settings menu now so default superuser is removed. One step closer to Official Omni. ;)

** The mirror on Mega is discontinued. **

2014/1/24

Finally back to the roms after a busy week! Everything seems quite smooth. Mange to make the new multi-window to work. I also fixed a bug in the wifi driver. Hoping no more ON/OFF now. OmniTorch is fixed and quick fixes on Camera for video recording.

As BeanStalk had make wifi tethering working, it motivated me to take a look. It was not that hard as I thought. Wifi tethering and wifi direct is working now. Two less items in the do list. Bluetooth would be the final large piece of pizzle. Cheers! ;)

2014/1/18 -- Seems the multi-window patch casue some systemUI crash. Please wait for a while.

Just return from a trip. Omni is now Android 4.4.2. Sim card will take a while to be recognized after reboot (upto a few min.). I don't have problem in WiFi since the last release but I change a few things in WiFi. Factory reset is essential. In case of repeated ON/OFF, you may try turning off the Wifi optimization in the advace menu. If not working, only a factory reset can help. Don't know why yet.

GPS has conflict with telephony. Lock GPS at air-plane mode first if you have trouble with it.

Multi-Window cherry pick not working in new source. Not quite sure why... Don't have much spare time lately but I'll try to keep it up. ;)

2013/12/12

Just Mange to include the preliminary multi-window source for the 4.4.2 test build. I made a patch for the existing OmniROM. Although the codes is preliminary, it works great. Some apps might not work but overall is worth trying. I might include it in the later builds if it doesn't cause crash. Files will also be found in the download links. Flash the MultiWindow-patch zip in recovery. (A revert zip is also provided) Cheers! :cool:

The commit message from the owner Guillaume Lesniak:

2013/12/11

After a trial build for 7.7, seems it is quite interesting to have Omni. I'm willing to serve the minorities. Even though only few of you guys find it useful. If I have the resource, I will continue.;)

Recovery requirement

** CWM6, TWRP 2.3.1 or above is OK.

Most of the 4.4 Roms require the latest reovery with file_contexts and set_metadata support.I have patch the update-binary to work with old recoveries.

** See my thread to patch any gapps or ROMs with set_metadata fail **
