[size=+1]Introducing: Galaxy Tab pROM 8.4 post-install version 1.0 with Xposed Framework[/size]

In Galaxy Tab pROM 8.4, I have updated the post-install script that will install, on first boot, the Xposed Framework, wanam, tinted status bar, butteredtoast, cputemp in status bar, network status bar info, wanam xposed torch, show wifi password, xhalo floating window. This does not mean you have to manually install Xposed, and enable modules. It is all automated and all happens on first boot. No need to 'reflash' the ROM. This will happen any time you do a factory reset on this ROM. It also sets a few default settings, disables touch sounds, and a bunch of things behind the scenes. I consider this a version 1.0 product. This version brings the ability to set home screen layouts and widgets, and It has great potential and will able me to apply entire settings on your device--everything from ringtones to brightness, volume, etc. You name it, I can probably make the post-install script do it. This will enable the Galaxy Tab pROM 8.4 to be truly customized in every way exactly how I intend it to be.

You will notice upon first boot, when the welcome screen comes on and is setting up for the first time, that the tablet will quickly 'hot boot' after about 10 seconds. This is completely normal and is part of the post-install process. Don't freak out and think you're in a boot loop. Everything will be fine.

See it in action:

I see a lot of excited people... Where's the download?

Lol... you didn't post a thread without a ready download did you? :p

I'm also curious to see your kernel source, as it appears you are running a special kernel.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] micmars:
Love all of it. Great to see development.

Appreciate all development, and you guys are why we are here.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Excuse me, but you are the one who is clueless with statements like this.

GPL requires kernel source be posted and buildable. Please read the rules.

I assume the OP will post source when he posts the download. Just never seen a 'placeholder' thread, when I create a thread I have a link to provide as well.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] freeza:

Thank you for efforts,

Downloaded the ROM two times and still cannot flash it in TWRP 2702. The log says

symling: some symn,ingsfailed

E: error executing updater binary in zip...

Error flashing zip...

Any piece of advice? thx in advance

Mine failed too, so I just rebooted recovery and flashed again and it worked for some reason

i cannot seem to connect to kies. same thing happened with cleanrom. he had a separate kies package to flash which was removed when he built the rom but i don't seem to have it anymore. was this removed? otherwise the rom is perfect
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] shadowswittness:
Use Phil cwm touch. Less issues flashing, plus it has a bunch of better features.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] ky3bmu4:
That helped, thank you very much.

Love the ROM so far. The only thing noticed is that the color of battery percentage is not adjusted to the color of status bar. For example in Gmail app the status bar is white and battery percentage text remains white and thus badly seen. Is that because the battery percentage is native from the stock rom?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] m8980:
first of all, thanks for your nice work and keep up your development.

Is there a way to disable crt for screen on? because its a little bit laggy for me. it takes some time after pressing power button to turn the screen on. thx

USB Charge

Anyone facing USB charge issue with this ROM ? For some reason the device gets connected as MTP device, but at the same time USB charge doesn't happen. "Not Charging" but device is connected and I can access files etc.

LCD Density

Any way to change LCD Density on this rom?

I haven't faced this, though I will check to confirm.

Thanks for pointing it out.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] bckrupps:
thought i would ask again. i cannot get it to connect to kies on my mac. anyone else with this issue? i think the kies stuff was removed. there used to be a flashable zip in the cleanrom thread a while back but it is gone. any help would be appreciated otherwise this rom is perfect.

Although it might be unrelated to this ROM and a general behavior with the device. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2751502

Can anyone on stock ROM confirm if device displays a X over battery icon when plugged in on one of USB ports (on laptops/computers) ?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] kaus1108:
This tab will not charge if connected to a laptop or computer via usb, even on stock rom
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Really? Mine charges fine from USB, on stock and CM (currently on a broken build of Slim, it charges via USB...)

Edit - OK, this is interesting. The charging icon shows properly when plugged into USB, but when I go check "About Tablet --> Status" it shows "Not Charging". Although my battery is at 100%... Going to drain it a bit and check again.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] milkk:
My charges via USB once the screen is off when it's on it doesn't charge because if I'm using it while plugged in battery left goes down.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] vikrant82:
In my tests it will charge slowly like 5-10% over an hour if screen is off. It seems it might charge faster when its off. It was being discussed in other threads. It seems this requires 2A and USBs can only give around 500mA.

Email app disappeared?

After flashing this rom my SecEmail_Tablet.apk has disappeared. I saved a copy just in case and put it back but it still doesn't work.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] palamosteliaro:
This is a very good start. Excellent performance and stability.

My only complaint is about the system apps and xsposed modules installed in the system and are a pain to get rid off (even with root uninstaller i still cant delete nova launcher and the xsposed modules)

De-Bloated from Samsung's stuff to be bloated with the creator's picks? Seems a bit strange! :)

Please make a completely emty version and it will be absolutely perfect.

Thanks a lot for your efforts its nice to have an option.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] mitchellvii:
An odd thing I noticed. If you try over clocking this it seems to over blow the contrast a bit resulting in colors seeming a bit faded. Odd.

Will this be updated to the ne3 version at some point? I'm looking to use this as my new dd
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] micmars:
You can do all of this on your own, using this or the other roms as your template.

There is a ton of headroom in the system partition, and thus most of it can be frozen or jettisoned, as you've noted.

The dev that provided this rom for your free use has chosen this clutch of apps as his preferred slate from which to work.

He has provided a modified kernel, with detailed information on his git hub.

As to whether he may or may not provide your suggested changes, I cannot speak.

But in a general sense, this is an outstanding rom in its own right, with a ton of options that the dev chooses to use and share.

Other devs build and move on, making roms for myriad devices. This rom is used by the dev, as he owns the device and thus provides the features that he finds most fitting for his particular interest.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] palamosteliaro:
As I said I cant remove the majority of the extra apps and xsposed frameworks installed in /system. Dont ask why, root uninstaller says the uninstall failed. Cant even disable them. Nice philosophy lesson but what I requested is what most people want: clean and or customizable rom. Its cool to have some applications the developer likes, but they should be optitional or at least installed in /data so we can get rid of them easily.

Thanks for the reply anyway...
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] mitchellvii:
Good news he owns this device. Hopefully he won't bail on us when the S comes out. I personally prefer the magazine like realistic colors of super lcd so I won't be getting an S with its cartoon colors.

---------- Post added at 06:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:08 PM ----------

Any chance the Dev can add GAMMA ADJUSTMENT to his kernel? Would love to be able to adjust gamma down a bit on this.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] micmars:
As noted, all of thee apps can be removed or frozen; as to what most users want is not the point either. This is a development site for and by developers; users are free to imbibe work given freely, or not. That stated, every dev is different, so I am most certain your request has been noted.

As to whether you can uninstall any of the apps provided, you can freeze them, remove those from Xposed if not using those particular modules, then cut/paste from system/app to your internal or external SD. I am unaware of any of that which you deem bloat that has dependencies, though I may be mistaken.

As to Nova, I believe that the solution is to flash a TouchWiz launcher back into the system partition, and then install any you may want from the play store. After that has been done, Nova can be safely nuked.

I would go the Root Explorer cut/paste route after deactivating the modules and rebooting once.

Make a nandroid backup prior to starting.

Good luck!

Battery life pretty horrific

Got up early is morning at around 4:30 am. Have been surfing the Web pretty steady for about 2 hours and have dropped from 100% charge to 43% charge. That gives me less than 4 hours total battery time. Just running the included kernel with no overclocks.

From what I can tell this is about half the advertised battery life. Any ideas?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] Wotta:
I see the same thing on Cyanogenmod 11, including the recent nightlies. But even stock, I never got good battery life out of this pup. I suspect it just takes a ton of juice to light up the big screen.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] mitchellvii:
Yeah they probably do those battery estimates with battery saver and auto brightness on while I like to go full power and full brightness.

---------- Post added at 11:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:10 AM ----------

Getting "no activity to handle event" error when browsing in Dolphin. Not sue if this is a dolphin error or the rom.

Also it seems as if the rom is getting progressively more laggy. Was very zippy at first but seems to be slowing down. Browsing has gotten quite sluggish. Any ideas?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] Angelusz:
Unfortunately this is not the ROM for me, constant reboots, not able to connect bt keyboard and 25% decreased performance.

So many xposed modules installed that I can't diagnose the problem. Unfortunately I'll have to try another.

Keep up the development work though, it's much appreciated despite the variable results.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] crpalmer:
You should check to see if you have any apps that are keeping the tablet awake. I've gotten more than 7 hours of screen on time on mine. Brightness level is a big factor, but still no where near 4 hours.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] mitchellvii:
Thanks. Yes I checked that first thing and as far as I can tell nothing is cooking off battery more than it should. I never calibrated this battery at first. Are there steps I should take to burn it in properly?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] acdcking12345:
Ok, I downloaded this ROM. It was a hefty 1.2 GB. So I use the Pwhiz recovery and tell it I want to install a new ROM. So it does its thing. Then I install this ROM.

Settings look just like the Stock ROM. I see a lot of Samsung stuff too.

Did I download the wrong thing?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] mitchellvii:
has anyone figured out how to get the stock email application working with this rom? I tried saving the apk from the stock rom and installing it here but it won't work.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] Wotta:
It sucks even doing nothing. Turned off all day, freshly charged, left it on the kitchen table so no accidental power-on, went from 100% to 82% in 11 hours.

The battery gauge says Android OS was 73% of that, Tablet Idle was 15%, Android System was 5%. Not great numbers. Something seems wrong with Cyanogen on the SM-T320.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] Wotta:
It looks like something is wrong with how the Exchange Services service talks to the two accounts I have. The wakelocks were way too high, about half the clock time.. Changing from Push to 5-minute pull helped, but I'm still working on it.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] bartveld:
I've just installed this rom and look forward to finetuning it. Question #1: How come I can't uninstall any modules in Xposed, even after disabling them and reboot?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] micmars:
Because the Xposed modules are in system app.

To remove, you'd have to cut each apk to your internal or external drive, and reboot.

Bugger, I should've thought of that myself. Thanks.

I've been running this on my tablet since the day after I got it, must say, it is really nice! Very stable, though sometimes I do have a very long delay (>3 seconds) when waking up the device. I'm assuming this is due to a setting in BeastMode, but I don't want to tweak anything because it's running great otherwise.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saintgein:
To get my device on a 4.4 rom with root i need to take the following steps:

- Downgrade to .534 with flashtool (I got [nut]version)

- Install latest Dual Recovery (z1 beta .123)

- Flash Prerooted firmware through recovery (Monx for example)

- Flash Stripped Kernel with flashtool (Nut .757 for example)

No need to backup TA then?

It look so simple, but it seems very complicated to me on the other hand.

Thanks for answering.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eclyptos:
Correct.

No, If you will not Unlock Bootloader. ..but after get Root with Locked Bootloader you can do a Backup TA just in case you will Unlock Your Bootloader leater.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saintgein:
Thanks for the quick answer!

I'm not going to unlock the bootloader, thats why i asked about the TA backup. If i'm doing that in a few months, i can still do that then right?

And can i put the flashable firmware onto the sd card before downgrading? Or will the sd card be wiped?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eclyptos:
Yes.

Yes, you can. The SD will not be wiped.
