Yea, modding is really trial and error lol, either works or your system crashes. I'm giving up on the whole development side of things on this, what does anyone expect out of a sprint sale. Does what it needs to without vanilla android.

Its just nova launcher, Google keyboard, and playing with xblast tools for xposed. Center clock on, colored status bar from boring white to green, circle battery with percent, and you can mod the Google keyboard with xblast which is something I liked from slimkat, debloated all sprint and Samsung apps without a problem. Oh, running stock ROM after rooting, DPI 120, 110 is the smallest I went and still legable.

The only things you can't do is status widgets icons but everything else on it works and settings apk.

Black background cause I hate how it blows up the picture
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] saramon:
Because once we have a stable aosp/cm rom, we can port other roms as well... Even with xposed, I am not a fan of touchwiz... I just wished we had some kernel options...

Stock Ne7 no knox..... http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358550103
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] bryguy9021:
Im runnin the ne7 no knox.. Need a way to disable shortcuts when i plug headphones in.. Seen a hack for it b4...it does run good
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] deciple:
I'm running CM 11 with no flicker....guess it's hit or miss but I've noticed that if you flash cwm 6.0.4.8 and have the flicker then chances are you'll have it with cm11 and the carbon rom....on the other hand if it doesn't flicker with cwm 6.0.4.8 then you'll have a nice cyanogenmod rom to fool with.....although the camera is broke in both Rom's.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] bryguy9021:
If u have no flicker u need to post every single detail about your setup.. Firmware... Recovery and build date... Rom and build date.. How u installed.. Step by step.. Cant be hit or miss we all have the same device everything is reproducable only variables are firmware recovery n rom versions.. Walk me thru your setup plz to hell with a camera i have a phone lol
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
Rooted with this; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2639423, still using the same twrp recovery. Got it with mh9 but now on ne7 with same root method done and still no flicker.

I'm sticking to my "its a hardware difference" scenario. Companies are known to do this to cheapen the process and still sell at the same price point.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] deciple:
I did that already a few

Pages back....and posted a screenshot of the about device......I did it so others could try to do it but they said they all had the flicker
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
I just think we need to stop worrying about this. Its become apparent interloper isn't working on this anymore, so I guess to the ones that can use it to enjoy it while you got it.

We're not gonna figure this out anyway so no point in posting anymore, maybe I'll see you all again in another device forum. Cheers!!!
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] arco68:
Hello. If the flickering is caused by mdp underruns (you can check the kernel log after the flickering happens, and see if it's logged there), it might get fixed if you apply the following kernel patch: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/747978dd80e2cefabfbae25e0d697fd79c8cc698
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] agentfazexx:
Yeah hopefully mods will close this thread.

Is there a dev actively working CM11 for our device?
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
Not to my knowledge. I wish there was more, even tw developers would be welcome!

We got what we got and some things better then nothing. Just wanna say thanks to interloper on getting somewhere with this, in fact I hope he is OK cause on his profile and post counts the last one he wrote was about evervolve. Nothing in any other forum for almost two months.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] sharkboy0901:
Getting my custom pc built very soon then i will start working on some roms. I am by no means a "real developer" but i really wanna get touchwiz off this tab. Hopefully these guys are just busy with other things and will come back soon with some good news. ;)
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] cxifenton11:
I cant believe still wrestling with this device. I started with this thing months ago and knew it was a lost cause
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Robbie Doo:
What are you struggling with? And, what did you start months ago?
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Mr_Ada:
Struggling with my T217S too

I am having no luck changing anything on my tablet, expect for the recovery. Every time I change the boot/ramdisk it bricks itself. And this is just adding 1 file which isn't being used! I am thinking samsung does some hidden checksums somewhere.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
Ok I'm back. After dude straight up doggin me for trying to see what's going on here I decided to leave. Sorry [MENTION=839943]interloper[/MENTION]. But good news is I have been working hard on CM-11 for HTC Evo 4G LTE, and have done some amazing work especially with Aroma Installer, learned a lot, I build from source now, $repo sync is my friend lol. So now that I'm back with more mad skills than before, I am will in to help again as long as people keep their opinions to themselves

[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
That's me then lol. I'm not a dev and don't try to be, interloper brought a lot to the table while no one else has. Let's face it, its a low end, high priced tab people got duped to buy, and at the same time no one wants.

His repos are open, and I'm not trying to offend you in any way, shape or form, or even demand anyone to build something and have it fully functional. Just work with what he's done so far and don't do what you did last time and keep empty promises and come up with nothing. We have to many threads that are all show and no go, don't really need another. "Cough"(pacman)

Problems with wifi tethering

hey has anyone figured out how to get the wifi tetherng to work on this new kit kat update for the galaxy tab 3 T217SVPUBNE7
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Gargon87:
If this helps... I've never had any flicker.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
So. I know how to sync up to the CM repo like normal. But being as this is an unsupported device, I'm not sure what I need. I'd think I need a special roomservice.xml for this similar to jewel.xml I use in my local_manifests folder. And a special command before using brunch. [MENTION=839943]interloper[/MENTION]... Your help here would be nice so I can start helping

[CM-11-NPL-20147022-BUILD5]

[XDA Premium]
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
I think the only major problem right now is some users are having a screen flicker of some sort, would you happen to know how we can check hardware revisions without taking apart? Some said basebands had the problem, I went thru all 3, I'm on ne7 without problems.

Interloper hasn't posted anything in any forum for a couple months, you could pm preludrew from evervolv, cause interloper said he was working with him a few posts back.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
Unfortunately no I don't know how to do that yet. I'm sure if I could get synced up with the commits for this device I could poke around a bit and find out. I do know quite a bit of C++ and I see tons of .cpp and .h files when I build(for jewel). So if I could figure out where to look I could probably make whatever changes are needed.

[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
I tried to find you. I'm not familiar with g+ and when I type interloper in to find people a ton of people show up and I don't want to add the wrong guy lol

[Galaxy Tab 3 General] sharkboy0901:
If you go to interlopers github the source for our tab should be there. I finished my pc just got to get the build environment setup then I'm also ready to start building. Add me on G+ as well there is a link on my profile.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
OK I'll try to get to you guys asap. I've just been really busy with Cyanogenmod 11 - NPL.

But at the very least I could port some of the work I've done over to this device. Mainly its just CM11 but with an absolutely incredible Aroma Installer with groundbreaking features
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] bryguy9021:
Getting excited
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] galaxyman4g:
They are hope for this tab3
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
I will need a roomservice.xml though. I don't have this tablet anymore so I can't get proprietary blobs from it.

And I'm still confused on how to sync up to this source lol. I followed CMs instructions for jewel when I learned so anything beyond that I still haven't learned. Github is still a mystery I'm trying to clear up right now
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
Is there any other way besides g+ to work with you guys? Honestly I just don't really use social networking services like Twitter, FB, G+, any of it. Its not my thing
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] sharkboy0901:
We need G+ because of hangouts so as long as we can chat through hangouts thats all we need.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
Yeah I got hangouts
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] TheZander:
Hi I tried deciple post but now my wifi and mobile data wont work.

I was wondering if anybody got a sure thing wifi fix.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
Alright. I just made a new build for this device, with SharkBoys assistance. We need a tester for it though. I designed the Aroma installer based on my work for HTC EVO 4G LTE. It's mainly a test build to see if it's even functional. The ROM still says Cyanogenmod 11 - NPL. That's about it though. I was more concerned with the updater-script installing correctly to really care about some text edits I can do later if it works fine.

Point being... Help... Anyone brave enough lol?
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] bryguy9021:
Right here sir... And i was rockin the evo jewel before getting my gs4 n this tablet a month ago. Loved it :)
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
Well too bad you don't still have it. You're missing out. I'm just hoping my adaptation for this device worked out. And I was thinking of a gs3,4,and 5 version. Depending on how things go.

Here it is: Remember, this is only a test.

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567720402
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] bryguy9021:
Grabbin now will test tonight. If it doesnt flicker my screen itll be a major improvement :) report back soon
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
Is it only the updater script changed? I'm gonna clean flash and test, then restore and dirty for personal test as well.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
no theres a ton more changed. and don't bother clean wiping lol. You get the choice in the installer for clean or dirty installation. My Aroma script is a beast :)

Edit:

I see 6 DLs so far... no word of it even making it through the installer...
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
I couldn't get it to boot on a clean install. All I had was a black screen. Recovery gave me a syslink fail, flashed again (cause some ROMs I gotta do twice for some reason), then it gave me a partial syslink fail still with a black screen.

*update* I just dirty flashed and all went thru, only problem is WiFi isn't working. I'm gonna try clean with a different recovery cause I'm using twrp 2.6.3.0 so it could be why, maybe.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
keep me posted
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
Same thing. Its a symlink fail. I saved the log from recovery but have no idea where its at. Let's see what others post cause I'm on ne7 so that could be the WiFi problem. As far as it not booting properly could just be my tab, cause I have a hard time flashing other ROMs like myn's ROM.

I saw it was 4.4.4 too!!!! If all else fails I'll just Odin back to stock and try a different root method then the one I use.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
I can deal with a symlink failure if I know which one it is
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] bryguy9021:
I just did nandroid backup... Wasnt at home b4...bout to install here in under 5 mins. Also using twrp with the latest stock rom. Crosses fingers
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Mr_Ada:
I hope it works.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
It happens after ROM installation, after installing apps. I'll redo it, and try to figure out where its putting the log

---------- Post added at 02:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:16 AM ----------

I don't know how to upload to XDA but I copied the important piece anyway.

Symlinking...

about to run program [/sbin/sleep] with 2 args

symlink: failed to symlink /system/bin/dump.f2fs to ../bin/fsck.f2fs: Read-only file system

script aborted: symlink: some symlinks failed

symlink: some symlinks failed

Installer Error (Status 7)
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] bryguy9021:
Aroma installer is epic. Every rom should have. Dirty flash went without hitch. Next launcher keeps *****ing for open gl 2.0 so switched to trebucht. Screen has seizure inducing flicker like prevoius cm on here but i imagine that hasnt been addressed yet 4g worked right away. Wifi greyed out. Camera dont work... What else should i test?

Internal storage is missing so cant test games.. Mx player played video with sound fine.. With flicker of course

Bluetooth file transfer fails.. Since no wifi cant send stuff from my phone without pulling sd card.. Trying to check logcats but need the app. (over my data limit)
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
So no error during a dirty flash correct?
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
Surprisingly not, just goes right on top of interlopers last build. I'm not getting this myself either, first time and I've been flashing since the og evo (which has 4.4 lol)

Upon searching, found status 7 is a recovery fault. Later today I'm gonna Odin cwm and try again. Could just not be comparable with twrp yet
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] kkalkan:
camera and wifi does not work :(

How it works wifi and camera? which firmware? ..

thanks. :)
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] BX2MD:
It dl for me and it installed looked good drop down fills the whole screen looks good the only things are WiFi, camera and mobile, and no flickering so if you can get WiFi and camera working it would be the best rom for tab3 right now
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] sharkboy0901:
If I could get a couple of testers to pm me so I can make a hangout that'd be great.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
OK. I know what the problem is. I had this error before. It has something to do with how I do the cleaning before installation.

---------- Post added at 08:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:36 AM ----------

Personally I don't know s*** about how to fix issues like that yet. SharkBoy and Interloper might. My main thing is the installer at this point but lol... It is one gnarly installer once the kinks for this device get worked out.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
So did you dirty or clean flash?

And what CWM for future reference
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] bryguy9021:
Info on my setup. Hardware version t217s.04.....baseband ne7..twrp 2.7.0.0. I have always had the flickering problem. I have no problems installing roms. I have no problems with 4g data.. U all know about camera n wifi so nothing new there... Ive only ever used twrp. The tab is a month old sprint gave it to me for free.. Came with jellybean 4.3 i wanna say.. Couldnt take ota update cause i rooted immed so i did it thru sammobile and odin and rooted again. At that point i started testing the cm builds in this thread. Flicker blah. Curious if i have any variables compared to u guys who are reporting different results.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] BX2MD:
The installer worked like a charm I did it dirty and clean and both went thru just fine so great work on the installer
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
Clean, cwm 6.3.6. I haven't dirty flashed it but when I did a dirty a twrp the data was working so assuming it would with cwm. Just can't clean flash with twrp
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
Alright. I hear everyone. I just made a new updated version that has a New MuitiRom module working (again text may be derped here and there in aroma). I have tested it (the installer) mostly. It now has my HTC EVO 4G LTE ROM built in as well. Which helps me do some of the debugging of Aroma itself preinstallation.

Though the catch is, to not step on toes till we talk with [MENTION=839943]interloper[/MENTION] you'll have to PM me for a private link (no sharing please)
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] RamenShinobi:
I'm interested in testing I'm on the ne 7

Can I test?
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] bryguy9021:
Hey smoke. Installed ur new build. Used twrp. Clean install. Installer is sweet and everything went without issue. The rom itsself has no data.. Unknown baseband.. No wifi.. No internal storage... Flicker... Basically nothing in the rom works.. Installer is a beast though id love to be able to incorporate things like es file explorer.. Titanium backup.. Etc.. I see alot of potential in the aroma... Lemme know if theres any specific feedback you need
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] deciple:
Fit those of us who don't have a flicker, is there anything we can provide for comparison to single out the reason others have it? ...like a dump perhaps? I'd like to contribute if I can to the development of this Rom....so far, I have no flicker, camera won't connect, and while gps location works, visual navigation dose not track in real time.....indicator just stays in one spot.....while speech continues to accurately navigate....
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] deciple:
What I'm running
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] bryguy9021:
im curious if you know what hardware version you are. stock tells you. mine has flicker and is version 4
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
Interesting, I didn't know being on stock told you. If it was that easy I'd of done it a long time ago when I made the point its hardware and not baseband. Gotta flash twrp back and restore a back up. I'll post back.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] bryguy9021:
i didnt know until yesterday ;P
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
I dont have flicker and im 04. I guess we can rule that out.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] :
I'm hearing 2 sides to this. Some say it works the same as it did. some have your issues. I think it's twrp & ne7.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
Did you start from scratch on the rom? Cause interlopers works on ne7, I'm using right now.

At least gotta say its a smooth running ROM after I flashed it, kept everything default and felt like no lag while messing with it.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] sharkboy0901:
All builds are using interlopers sources. I also have ne7 and experience the flicker.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
I just didn't know considering basebands unknown. I only get data when I dirty flash on twrp for some ungodly reason. I'm on hardware 4, ne7 without flicker. I get data on interlopers build from 5/24 build.

Samsung sucks lol
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] sharkboy0901:
Yea for some reason things broke on the newer build but I am getting them working again my main concern tho is that flicker which I am working on just gonna take a bit of time but i have a few ideas up my sleeve.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Mr_Ada:
Getting lost in all this messaging

Hi guys,

I really want to get more control over my T217S tablet. This is crazy for me. I can't even change init.rc for the boot.img without this stupid thing bricking itself. I think there is some form of checksuming going on and once you make 1 change it is over. What I want to accomplish is to have a de-androided tablet. I want a single app (Qt based) running on it. If I can someone do this, I'd be very happy.

Chris
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] sharkboy0901:
Did you take the latest ota?
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Mr_Ada:
OTA stopped working for me when I debloated my device. I had use ODIN to get the stuff in there. I have found a ROM that I can actually use. It is cm-11-20140524-UNOFFICIAL-lt02ltespr.

I am going to see if I can put embedded Qt on it.

Chris
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] chandrakant_b:
Why camera is not working yet in 24052014 update of cm10
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] chandrakant_b:
Any idea for cam fix
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Mr_Ada:
I have been using this ROM now and all seems fine, except for camera which I don't care if it works. It boots up in 19 seconds and that is pretty cool. I think what needs to happen is to put a different boot image on the device. I am in process of trying to decipher the internals of this device.

Chris
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] miggsr:
To anyone here running this rom... What recovery are you guys using and does your screen have issues where it constantly flickers?. I've used cwm recovery and screen has same flickering issue but with twrp no Flicker. Anyone with some insight on this please let me know if there is a solution
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Mr_Ada:
My recovery says CWM-based Recovery v6.0.4.8. I didn't install the one that came with this MOD.

I don't notice any flicker but then again i chose a black background.

chris
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] miggsr:
Even with black background still notice able I'll see if I can make a video to explain
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Mr_Ada:
Ok. I am also having issues with the Wireless Network. Since I cannot talk to device with Windows (which I am using at the moment) I cannot copy files to it so I rely on a apk that allows wireless file transfers. If I can't get a handle on this network issue, I'll not be able to use this device.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] miggsr:
Well here is my video on the issue I am currently having with this rom. Wifi? Have you tried factory reset ? Flicker issue: http://youtu.be/_cYjsuSY9JM
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] BX2MD:
I have the same issue and my storage is damn near full I don't know what's going on
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Mr_Ada:
That is strange! I don't have any flicker. Have you tried to go back to a stock ROM to rule out that it isn't a HW issue?

If I do a factory reset won't that require me to reinstall. I'll try it anyway as it is easy to reload this ROM.

Chris
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Temeriki:
Where did you get the regular version of cmw and how did you install it. Id be happy with just a link.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Mr_Ada:
Hmmm. It has been a while. I don't recall where I got it from. I do have an img file that I could attach. I had to zip it to make it simpatico with this site.

chris
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] miggsr:
I believe I figured out my issue it's the kernel... On stock I don't have issues so it's not hardware. But when I turn tablet off to charge the battery animation never loads and at the top left it says something in yellow text with kernel right after.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] 4thehalibit:
EDIT all is working looking good but cant connect to camera ?
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] bryguy9021:
Wifi is well n good but what build fixes the flicker? :).

[Galaxy Tab 3 General] creep138:
It doesn't really matter if its open or closed. The whole tab 3 section is dead so by closing it you should close the whole section down, right? Or are you screaming for attention so someone can finish this?
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] BX2MD:
