It will run but later on it will suck !! Can't use it as daily driver !!

In accordance to me

[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Lightracer:
It was not forcefully made mind you. And Marshmallow works for this tablet like a charm~ I can tell you that since I've been using Marshmallow roms for the past year on this tablet as my daily driver. So far, it has served all my needs while having the latest (or most up to date) android version.

[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] ze7zez:
I do not understand.

Will not you analyze the problem with the hotspot because you have decided so or because you have no logs? :confused:

Just in case, I attach the logs to the post.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Android-Andi:
Maybe you need a special kernel forced for your variant. You'll find one in my anykernel thread.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Android-Andi:
Hotspot should be fixed on latest build, if not try latest AnyKernel for KitKat on top of it.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] ze7zez:
Thanks for your efforts.

I regret to say that it does not work, neither on the Slim kernel nor on Anykernel. The switch can be turned on, but the radio is not active.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Android-Andi:
Mh... Could you attach another log please? (Logcat & dmesg, not sure if it's the bcmdhd in kernel or something rom side)

If you have some time please also test on https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=962021903579495500 ?

I'll try to look into it, I've lot of work in real life next weeks and things not to well ATM... Could be we have only one income next year which could cause real trouble :(

Edit:

Hotspot works on 6.0 ROMs for you?
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] ze7zez:
In LineageOS the difference is that when switched on (Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot), the switch automatically switches off and on again and again without end.

The radio is not initialized.

After the change to Anykernel there is no improvement. The radio does not work, but the switch is not going crazy.

I can place my logs in a dozen or so hours.

In every ROM 5.1.1 (except for candy5 and AOSP), 6.0.1 and 7.1.2 Wi-fi hotspot works fine.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Android-Andi:
Ok, so we miss something rom side if it works on all but not 4.4.4 roms.

I bet hostapd could miss some upstream parts. attached hostapd from 6.0 as flashable zip.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] ze7zez:
I tried this method before, but it did not help. Now it also does not help.

Since you have a lot of important work, activating Wi-Fi Hotspot is not an urgent and can wait.

Attempt to fix hotspot
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] ze7zez:
I did the first tests yesterday (# 2554).

Today the rest.

Using Anykernel does not help.

Turning on Wi-Fi Hotspot usually causes the radio to turn on and off all the time.

In the logcat (line "Using interface wlan0 with hwaddr") you can see that the system generates another MAC each time it re-enables Wi-Fi Hotspot.

It is always a different MAC than the one that uses CM 11 from the /efs/wifi/.mac.info file.

Yes, I know your post # 3371.

If the fixed address method is effective, how to restore the previous version of BCMDHD in SlimKat?
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Android-Andi:
You'll need to compile your own kernel with old bcmdhd. Might have another idea, I let you know next days.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] ze7zez:
Thank you Andi for your next attempt (2018-01-26 ROM).

Tethering turns on and broadcasts, but it does not connect to a client who does not receive an IP address.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] AndroidDevSoon2Be:

[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] ze7zez:

Did you successfully send data during connection?
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] AndroidDevSoon2Be:

[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] AndroidDevSoon2Be:

[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] ze7zez:
Slim does not have a "Share" function other than for Email and Bluetooth.

So be polite and write what exactly you did to send a file from P3100 to another device via Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot in Slim 9.15.

I would like to repeat your action on my P3110.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] presetz:
hello dev,

i have the same problem the hotspot on and off continuosly, after short stable connection.

i tried to transfers data with mi drop apk, just like shareit apk, using wifi hotspot to exchange data.

or is there any custom rom for p3100 that have working tethering ? thanks
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] ze7zez:
Portable Wi-Fi hotspot

Portable Wi-Fi hotspot works well in android:

4.4.4 - CyanogenMod 11 - only for P3110

4.4.4 - Slim Official

4.4.4 - P3110-SlimKat / P3100-SlimKat - Unofficial

5.1.1 - every one, except for candy5 and AOSP

6.0.1 - every one

7.1.2 - every one

[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] seseeley:
Is the tethering problem talked about above,

a.) a tablet connecting to a cell phone with cellular service?

or

b.) something else (aka, phone, etc.?) connecting to the tablet?

I've got a GT-P3113 I've just flashed with Android-Andi latest SlimKat. Fond on this site andi34.github.io/roms_tab2_slim.html (I'm not allow to go to file sharing sites from work to get the exact build number).

Rotation doesn't work and I can't connect (tether) to my phone to allow the tablet to access the internet via cellular network.

How far back in Android-Andi list of builds do I need to go to find a build where at least tablet wifi connection to my cell phone works?

Should I try the Slim-espressowifi-kernel-signed.zip Andi provided above? If so do I just flash it using TWRP like any other zip? Do I need to wipe any caches?

Thanks for any help,

Steve
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] seseeley:

---------- Post added at 03:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:21 AM ----------

Slim-espressowifi-4.4.4.build.9.17-UNOFFICIAL-20180311-1632.zip

or

Slim-p3110-4.4.4.build.9.4-UNOFFICIAL-20151228-2232.zip

this one 2 years old.

Is build 9.4 more stable?
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] john99ap:
No, 9.17 is newer. From a mathematical point of view you are right, but here the numbers mean it's the 17th version/build while the other is the 4th.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] seseeley:
All things work now!

Thanks you Android-Andi and all others that help out on this thread. I was about to buy a new tablet but this rom has breathed new life in to my GT-P3113. If it can keep this speed I will not buy anther tablet until the HW dies! Thanks again.

I'm puzzled, about this, my first flashing of a rom. After initial flashing wifi worked and I could connect to either of my routers.

But rotation and connecting to my phones hotspot was not working.

24 hrs later rotation was working but connecting to my phones hotspot was still not working.

36 hrs later I can now connect to my phones hotspot.

Does it take some time for configuration or something else to sort itself out? Anyone else experience this delay?

Thanks again for this rom,

Steve

Hi,

am I the only one having issues with Bluetooth on the March release? I can pair multiple devices, tested 2 different ones. But as soon as I try to use either of them my tablet reboots, every time.

Follow-up: If this is a known bug, is there any other release with 4.4.x where this works?

[BUG] Fresh Install w/o gapps - Broken mediaplayer/awesomeplayer framework

I think that YouTube crashing reported is related. Sir can you try app called NewPipe is a open source YouTube website wrapper, it plays the raw video from YouTube without the extra crap of play services, and supports the alternative codec YouTube encodes the videos in WebM/3GP. Or an alternative website like www dot hooktube dot com is another way to see YouTube stuffs.

--snip--

So in Slimkat and Omni 4 march2018 build, I did a straight clean full format & flash, no gapps installed. And tested with NewPipe 0.13 and the built in chromium for online videos.

I could only get ogg audio from any WebM no video, and only video/audio in 144p 3GP nothing higher. Try to play mp4 but it would crash immediately, avi stored on sdcard played with audiovideo but would crash when seeking - and then never work again for anything related to video until you reboot.

Edit: In NewPipe you can set setting under Audio Video to play either in external player or use old NewPipe player, to get mp4 360p-480p av working at least. This worked for me in SlimKat. External player with codecs included or in separate container like VLC/MX might work, not having gapps complicates me.

[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] seseeley:
In the above link it states "fix reboots while root access was requested" ...

Are you saying FCs can happen if an app requests su?

And if you have rooted your tablet with SuperSU, FCs from apps requesting su shouldn't happen?

Maybe unrelated. I've seen a few FCs the first time I've started a few apps. After an app runs the first time there no longer seems to be a problem.

Should everyone install this kernel or only people having problems?

Thanks for your help ... Steve
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Android-Andi:
Testing won't hurt. Or wait for next build (later or tomorrow).
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] seseeley:
Installed the new kernel last night. Tried to find a problem with it but couldn't. I'll try some other things to break it tonight.

... unrelated ...

The only problem I have is the play.google store updating my SuperSU client app, which is fine. But then Super SU wants to update the su binary ... don't do it! It will kill your su and for some reason it corrupted my external SD card.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Android-Andi:
New build is up. Contains a few patches from April Android security bulletin.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] seseeley:
Last night installed espressowifi build 9.18 May 10, 2018, open gapps 4.4 nano March 27, 2018 & SuperSU 1.80.

OS and all apps working great with nothing to report.

Unlike the March update I experience "no" FCs when a few apps started for the first time, I had no screen rotation issues and tethering to my phone worked immediately.

I'm assumming the AnyKernel-2018-05-05-16-04-KitKat-espresso.zip fixes for "rebooting" where incorporated into this new build?

Forgive me for 2 noob questions related to my update procedure with TWRP.

I install each zip (slim, gapps, supersu) separatly and wipe dalvic cache after each.

1.) Is this over kill? Can I wipe once after the last zip is installed?

2.) Can I install all 3 zips together using TWRPs zip staking/queue feature?

Is there any reason to include the EFS partition in a nandroid backup for a wifi only tablet?

This time I let google store reinstall my 17 apps instead of using Titanium Backup to restore apps. What do most people do?

I'm still looking for a way to either stop play.google from updating SuperSU 1.80 or silence SuperSU 2.82 from nagging me to update the su binary.

Thanks,

Steve
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Android-Andi:
Yeah, I always include latest AnyKernel source.

All information always here http://andi34.github.io/news.html

Wiping cache and dalvic once all is flashed should be enough, afaik que option in twrp works fine to flash all 3 instead flashing every zip one by one.

I am not a Titanium fan, some use it... I am a fan of clean installs to prevent from issues. But, there's a backup option in TWRP, I'd suggest making a rom backup first if you're going to try it.

EFS backup makes sense on wifi only devices too, e.g. Mac address is stored there (stock ROMs and old kernel read it from there). On destroyed EFS partition you might be unable to use wifi and bt.

Wiped everything (system, data, cache, etc) on device and flashed ROM and nano gapps (ARM, 4.4) with latest TWRP. The device boots fine, but then Setup Wizard fails to connect to WiFi, and I have to continue skipping WiFi. I can later connect to WiFi, but Play Store FC immediately after launching everytime.

Wiped and flashed the whole thing 3 times and I get the same issue each time. What am I missing? Switching back to Slim7 in the meantime. That was working perfectly fine, but I read that some people felt SlimKat was faster/smoother for this device. Thanks!
