Beta 4 is now live! This update is highly recommended for anyone still using beta 3.

I suggest you take a look at the changelog, there's some interesting finds :p

P5220 now supported on 3.0 beta!

happy flashing
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] christty31:
hi Restless,

i have an issue on P5200 3G on beta 3 kitkat...every time the tablet is restarted i have a message "An SD card has been inserted...."

How do I get rid of it? Is annoying...

Also, for write permissions on Ext SD card i have installed the "SD Fix" from google play....
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Restl3ss:
That "An SD card has been inserted" crap is a bright idea from samsung they decided to implement in 4.4. Actually, thanks for the idea, i'm gonna work on killing it.

On write permissions, I've fixed it in beta 4 via a platform.xml edit, feel free to uninstall that app if you update.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Kinetix:
Thanx a million Restl3ss!

You mentioned previously that you might include Flash in your ROM. Is this included? I have Flash working perfectly on my Samsung Galaxy S4...never got it work on the P5200 though. Is there a way to get Flash working?
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] christty31:
I know the crap from Samsung, also that cannot be removed until now.....

I will uninstall "SD Fix" when update to beta 4.

Thank you a lot for your work!
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Kinetix:
I'm not able to flash the beta 4 ROM...can flash stock and beta 3 though. Using TWRP 2.7.1.0...says successful, but it' s not...
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] edsoedso:
I was able to flash the rom but when rebooting it goes again to recovery. I installed beta4 over beta3 without wiping anything. There is no way to reboot even wiping cash and dalvik cash before rebooting. Any idea? Thank you! My tablet is P5200.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] x0xhellx0x:
Same issue for me bootloops into recovery did you miss edit the build.prop
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] tbzdat00:
Same here with P5220 ... TWRP ... reboot in Recovery

A BIG THANK YOU to Restl3ss for the hard job that you are doing !
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Pirex69:
Well.. Rest3less this behavior reported by others is the same that I told you on pm some days ago. In fact after a successful flash with beta 3 I could not flash any other rom except recover a nandroid with cwm... In this moment I'm not able to flash beta 4... It just boot loops into recovery...
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] edsoedso:
We have to remain calm as long as we do not know the reason for this problem. It is going to be resolved soon, no doubt about it. Let us thank the developer for his timing and knowledge devoted to this tablet and rom.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Restl3ss:
I sincerely apologize for this problem, return to beta 3 for now while i try to figure this out
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] igos2:
Just tryed it, reboot to recovery after a FULL wipe.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Restl3ss:
Actually wait, so to verify, the exact situation is, you flash the rom, reboot, and it jumps back into recovery? Because If that's the problem everyone is having I might know what's wrong
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Restl3ss:
The only edit I made to build.prop in beta 4 was changing the display ID and build date to reflect the new build. However, I did add several libs, binaries, and permissions, for the new terminal stuff I mentioned in the changelog. A couple existing binaries were overwritten, I'm wondering if that could possibly be the problem. Other than that, I added the wanam APK to /system/app and edited platform.xml in etc/permissions to fix media write to external SD. I can give you an exact list of libs / binaries / permissions that were added / overwritten, the next thing i'm gonna try is a test build with no overwrite (but keeping new copies)
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] igos2:
the exact situation is :

1- I flash the rom with a FULL wipe.

2- After the reboot the device stay on the samsung logo for a couple of minutes.

3- Nothing else happens, and the device reboot itself, and it jump in recovery.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Restl3ss:
Does it hang on the initial bootsplash or the boot animation?
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] igos2:
initial bootsplash, only "Samsung Galaxy Tab 3" is shown.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Pirex69:
Rest3less, i´m not sure if the issue is with beta 4, can you consider that it may be with beta 3? because is after flashing this last one that the issue appears
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] edsoedso:
That is exactly what I am facing on my P5200. When rebooting it shows Samsung Galaxy Tab and goes to recovery again.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Restl3ss:
Well, beta 3 worked properly for most people, there was the occasional one who reported a similar bug but, for the majority it worked. There's a few possible things it could be, either A the kernel / system isn't flashing properly, which could be an updater-script problem or a recovery problem (there was a glitch on twrp before that caused that if you directly wiped system) or, b, one of the libs i placed could be bad, but i don't see how that's possible since i'm running them on my own tab at the moment w/ beta 3 (via manual placing) unless there's something that needs to run on first launch that got borked somehow. The fact that the boot animation doesnt run means either the kernel or the system (or both) is borked. I'm not sure what exactly as without even the boot animation logs can't be pulled, but i'm assuming it's broken binaries / libs.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] blackcanopy:
Beta 3 was like that for me as well while using TWRP recovery. But using Philz recovery, it (beta 3) flashed without issue.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Restl3ss:
Interesting, could you possibly try beta 4 with philz?
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] blackcanopy:
I'd be happy to. But I don't have my Tab with me today, I'll have to wait until I get home.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Restl3ss:
Works for me, I'm heading to bed now anyway :p thanks, it's greatly appreciated
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] x0xhellx0x:
I use phillz and it hung on fist splash
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] edsoedso:
I am on Philz recovery and facing the same thing. The device is p5200.

P5220 lte/3g7wifi

Hey.... This rom should be the best custom for the P5220 i read all over the net....

Question...

I have the LTE version, which version would be the best to flash??

Downloaded everything, just need the right link for this model....

Thanks(the beta 4 problem is still unsolved?)
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Restl3ss:
The beta 4 problem is still unresolved, and 2.x.x never quite worked properly for the LTE model for some unknown reason. Just keep philz on your device and wait for beta 5 which will just be a hotfix (and should be out some time tonight if one of my experiments is successful)

To those experiencing the same problem, please stop reposting the same issue, i've got enough feedback to know it's a universal problem. Continued reposts just clog the thread.

I apologize for this issue, I'm working to resolve it.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] WysiwygDK:
Thx m8...

I will restock the original rom and flash philz and wait until you post the beta5....

Really hoping on this, hearing so many good things about your roms.... Again... Thanx alot :), you are da masta....

Give Us A Favour Restl3ss And Cancel Your Project ?!!!!!!
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] firemaker911:
And Now SuperUser Problem....

Fix From Restl3ss Is Installed....

SuperUser Update....

I Hope When I Uninstalled This With Titanium Backup Pro And Install SuperSU I Don't Have Problems....
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] WysiwygDK:
If you read all the posts, you would know that there is a problem with the Beta 4 (and 3)... As Restless replies a couple of days ago, he ask not to install and a beta 5 will be uploaded as soon as he is ready and it pass his tests....

You properly did not destroy your tablet, just download the stock rom(its easy to find, just write stock rom and the model (P-5220, P-5200 etc) and flash it with odin... I did that after the pimpdroid failed, easy and takes 5 mins....

(you can find plenty of guides in here telling you step by step how to)

Give restless a couple of days, he will post a beta when he is ready, and i am pretty sure it will be awsome...
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] christty31:
hi guys,

Hi Restless,

After the issue with Beta 4 i have installed the 4.4.2 official Open Austria P5200XXUBNH2 then TWRP and rooted....

It has the same ****....force close\restarts...... what is the issue? :(
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] WysiwygDK:
I installed the stock rom after the failed pimpdroid install. Flashed dalwik cache and factory reset. After i installed philz recovery again. Used the restl3ssroot.zip(here in the tread), restarted my device and installed the updatesuperuser.zip...

Everything works like before, i am rooted on stock rom...

this rom i installed:

What an exciting past bunch of days we've had here.

Here is the thing. This is a developers site. Once the fundamentals of that are clear, then we can move forward. Being a developer's site, there are a few things that have to be maintained.

First - There is always room for improvement. This goes for the devices, OS, kernel, various points of hackery. How does that happen? Through proper bug reporting. This "I haz problem, fix it nao" crap is apparently the wave of the future. If you want to really contribute, then after reading the proper pages before you flashed and you still decided to flash anyways, would have been the perfect time to capture a logcat (you can do this via adb of any various apps on the Play Store - I use CatLog when on the go) instead of coming in here and complaining with no evidence to help solve your problem.

Second - Always.....always make a Nandroid backup. It saves soo much time and effort than having to flash back to stock and then getting everything where it was before the bad flash.

Third - It may be time to move on and find another ROM to flash as this one may not be the best for you. There are plenty of options out there, so why not test a few of them out. If you do decided to stay with this ROM, I implore you to please make your posts helpful and quite a bit less antagonistic.

Fourth - You can always sync your repos and build yourself. Then you can see what all putting together a ROM involves. You don't have to

release it on here or anywhere for that matter. But it is a good way to see how things are done from the ground up.

Stay On Topic

No Flaming, Just Report and Move On

Thread Cleaned.

I restored Pimpdroid 3.0 beta 3 without any problem.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Pirex69:
Can you flash any other roms?

Good morning everyone,

let me share with you this story and would like to understand if it is common.

After installing the beta 3 I could not flash any more rom, nor beta 4 or earlier versions of Restl3ss as 2.5.1. The only thing is that I can do is restore a nandroid.

I would like to confirm it after the beta 3 you can flashing other roms?

Thank you

Pirex
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] stevvie:
I went from beta 3 back to pimpdroid 2. 5, so I had no problem. I did a fresh install,.

[MENTION=1470350]stevvie[/MENTION], with Philz ou with TRWP? thks
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] edsoedso:
Considering your story I decided to try and here is my story:

My tablet is P5200 and I am on Phil'z recovery.

few days ago I was on Pimpdroid beta 3. Tried to install beta 4 and faced the already known problem. I restored a nandroid backup of Pimpdroid beta3 that went okay until today.

Today decided to install Cagrom 4.2.2. I flashed it. When rebooting tablet went again to recovery (same story with beta 4)

Went back to recovery, wiped system to install e new rom and installed a nandroid backup of Stock rom 4.4.2 (fixed) made by Rest3less.

After that I tried again to install Cagrom but after flashing it went again to recovery.

From recovery I tried a fresh flash of Stock rom 4.4.2 (fixed) made by Rest3less. It went okay.

Back to recovery and try to install again Cagrom but the same story as above. No success.

flashed again a nandroid backup of pimpdroid beta3.

My conclusion:

I was not able to go from a 4.4.2 rom to a 4.2.2 rom becase after flashing always tablet went to recovery like with beta 4.

Despite flashing Pimpdroid beta 4 I was able to do a fresh flash of stock rom 4.4.2 (fixed) made by Rest3less.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Pirex69:
yes, its almost the same with me... So i think that the issue could stay with beta 3, but I´m not sure.... I´m lost :) thank you [MENTION=5006103]edsoedso[/MENTION]
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] CAG-man:
Feel free to leave CAGrom 5200 feedback in the CAGrom thread. It will be very helpful. To address the issue with flashing, either CAGrom (5200 or 5210) will not be able to flash over a 4.4 rom. As I have been able to see myself.

I am still using a nandroid Pimpdroid 4.4 beta 3. I have to will download the beta 4. Grab some logcats. See if they will be helpful for pimpdroid.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] edsoedso:
My purpose was to test Cagrom on P5200 as long as nobody have done it. Unfortunately, it was not possible. I am not able to explain it. I will do one more test to install stock rom through Odin, root device and than try to install Cagrom. Perhaps I will do it at the end of the week. Than I will comment on your thread, no doubt about it.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] rodbacon:
Finally made the leap...

I've been watching this thread for some time. I've been running a standard, rooted KitKat ROM since the day it was released. I finally took the plunge and installed BETA 3 of your ROM, and it seems to work well. Many thanks, Restless. Can't wait for version 5.

Cheers.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] christty31:
Same here, I'm back to Pimpdroid Beta 3 on my P5200, still the best until now.

[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Restl3ss:
I'm considering either restarting pimpdroid development or starting a new ROM for the tab 3. But some questions for you guys -

1 - do I still have a userbase at all that would like to see this resurrected?

2 - if I start a new ROM, would you prefer stock base or CM base? Keep in mind a cm based ROM would have the same problems as the unofficial cm build in the main thread - but there's also only so much that can be done with stock TW (it's pretty terrible)

Hey [MENTION=5378432]Restl3ss[/MENTION], I really like the idea of your ROM and I've got my tablet connected to my computer, and I'm all ready.

But first, could you pretty pretty please supply some screenshots? I like a surprise, but I'm tired of Samsung's TouchWiz and I wanna know if this will help me. The features and changelogs sold me, but I wanna know what I'm getting.

Honestly as of now you're looking at a pretty much stock look unless you wanna theme with wanam

I had originally planned to replace the UX as thoroughly as I could, but to be frank I lost my motivation to work on this ROM. I'm contemplating releasing one more update at least to fix the current bugs (namely the newest build failing to boot, I know what's wrong ) but I have yet to find time. If there was enough demand for it I might pick it up but there doesn't seem to be
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] vin_:
I get that there isn't much demand. But are you seriously gonna leave us with broken builds? I had really high aspirations for this ROM, but you have failed to deliver.

Please please please, fix Beta 3. Whenever you can. Doesn't have to be today. But please, just fix it.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Restl3ss:
This kind of self-entitled mentality is half the reason I lost my motivation to work on this. This is my hobby, not my job - I don't OWE you anything.

But that being said though, there's some degree of truth there in that I don't wanna just leave it broken like this. It nags at me from time to time because it feels like unfinished business. Perhaps I'll fix it
