I never profess to be a Dev, but intend to release a 800/805 kernel built in symmetry with 700/705 device.

I'm not too sure about updating to latest linux version or complicating things with custom toolchain etc (50/50). Simplistic stability is what I look for. Methods and patches will aways tested on my own device first before reciprocating in your kernel.

Need to also sort out a few gremlins on my current kernel, but I do have an idea where to start (on some things).

Not too sure about "competition", but a different view point can be good to spur on (edit: and encourage) development of any kind. :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Oh no this is bad. Do you meant it won't let you download anything or just Web images?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Just can't download web images i want to save. Sort of does nothing.

---------- Post added at 01:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:27 PM ----------

Yeah, when I say "competing" I mean, competing for eyeballs. There are no winners or losers. :) There are some who want the full Touchwiz ecosystem available and those who want only speed.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
I uploaded 3.2.8 which has a permissions fix. Should fix the problem for pictures/etc. not downloading. Someone please test it and let me know the result.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Also, so that it is easier to remember I got my username changed from ik4evr2 to Shaheer (which happens to be my name lol) :silly:
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Smashed the permissions bug. Everything seems stable and good. I'm out to vacation for a week so there won't be any new updates. From [MENTION=2735188]mitchellvii[/MENTION] advice i've decided to release the pre-release beta so everyone can test it out for a week and let me know of any bugs so that I can fix them once I come back and release the real thing with 0 bugs. While i'm gone please don't hesitate to leave replies letting me know of the bugs/glitches. I'll be checking things with my mobile data when I get time or in the car ride lol. Have fun flashing and see everyone in a week. :D
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] reubenskelly1992:
Does the latest version have touch wiz or just nova??
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Touchwiz. I'll upload the nova one once I get time when I come back.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Has TW. Lol, oops, too slow.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Yeah lol. I'll fix that when I get back.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] reubenskelly1992:
I like touch wiz. It's quick and snappy when debloated and optimised:)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
Cool :cool:, I like TouchWiz better :D, does this version have the stock e-mail/exchange and Internet browser apps?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] reubenskelly1992:
New version is great and definitely much quicker and snappier. But there's a few Samsung apps I use missing.

Can someone upload the apk for me plezse. The apps are

Galaxy apps

S planner with widget

Accuweather widget.

please. would be amazing.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Yes and yes. It's great. Do a Nandroid and give it a flash.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
+1 :D
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Shaheer's plan for the final release is to include Aroma Installer so you can pick and choose the apps you want included.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
Cool :cool:, Downloading now :D:D
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Oh I thought you wouldn't need those because you all wanted it debloated so I tried to remove all the junk things. But hey, may be useless to me but very important to you. I'll put em back in when I get back. Once I get aroma installer working, it will be much easier lol.

llllllllloooooooonnnnng car ride.........
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Hey at least you have a tablet to play with. When I was a kid we stared out the window and counted cows. :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
No prob, It's ALL GOOD :D:D:D, Enjoy your vacation Dude. And THANKS again
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Ha ha, that's true!:p
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] reubenskelly1992:
Isn't any good to me right now lol

---------- Post added at 10:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:13 PM ----------

No worries. I understand that. I delete evrerything but do use those 3 things. Everyone to there own:)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Anyone have this issue ever?

If you flash a kernel on any type of rom whether it being stock or not, when you try watching a movie from the Google Play Movies & TV app the quality is really really low. And if you try downloading it even if it is a HD movie, the download size is only like 320mb. Something to do with DRM maybe?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Just put the ones you're missing back in yourself. If you have 7zip and the stock rom it's a piece of cake.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] reubenskelly1992:
Yeah just means re flashing the rom etc
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Up to you. I believe you can just dump them in root/system/app, set permissions to match the other apps and reboot. You just need to pull the .apk's from the stock rom. I'll see if I can grap those few for you and post them here. Just to tide you over till Shaheer gets back.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Rain rain go away come again someother day. :(

The rain is ruining my first day of vacation lol. Good thing I brought my laptop, I can work on aroma installer. Until i run out of battery. ;)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] reubenskelly1992:
No worries. I restored the system Rom and backed them up on titanium and will reinstall them and put in system apps. This Roms good ain't it?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Yep. It's my daily driver for now. :)

---------- Post added at 05:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 PM ----------

I once took a 10 day trip to Fiji down by Australia. Started raining the day we got there and the sun finally came out the day we left. 10 days of solid rain. I have terrible vacation luck.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] reubenskelly1992:
Actually could you. Not sure if my backup worked properly
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Oh man, that must have been horrible. I hope history doesn't repeat itself here for me lol.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Wow the floodgates have opened. A week ago we basically had jack. Now we have an 800 rom, a heavy hitter group of devs are building a 700 rom and the CM rom for the 700 is close to be done and wicked fast (if you don't mind giving up multiwindow, side sync and the other Samsung stuff). We have something for everyone. Cool.

Desert to oasis.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Same thing happened when I started developing for the tab pro 10.1. It was a happy moment. From a trickle to a roar. ;)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Yep. I think what happens is no one wants to be the first one in the pool. Then once someone gets a working rom going and shows real dedication to development, buzz gets going and the other devs start jumping in.

Shaheer you are a trendsetter man :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
Looking in the stock rom for the calculator and calendar apps, can't seem to locate them. Perhaps they have different names. Do you know the file names ?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] wtherrell:
Now if only they would release a 32GB 8.4 I would be all over it!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Dingchow:
You can install the Galaxy app store from Samsung http://apps.samsung.com/mars/mw/apk_en.as?COUNTRY_CODE=USA
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Poser:
Preach on...

as far as "mulit-window"... that can be cherry-picked from OMNI, once we get rolling. Though I will say, samsung's implementation is butter.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
EDIT: Ok, Beta 4.0 is uploading for aroma installer. I'll post the link once it is done.

What to do: (Follow exactly please) & Read before flashing

1. See if the setup boots into aroma installer (I'm thinking that it won't)

2. If it does boot into aroma just accept the TOS and all

3. Once you get to the launcher screen select NOVA (DON'T select STOCK!!!) *It is actually CM's Tebuchet launcher not nova.

4. Next, for the google apps, choose Books (DON'T choose anything else)

5. Then just click next till it starts installing... Here is the main part. If it finishes in around 2-3 seconds then it didn't work. But if you see if progressing and it lists all the things it is doing it should be working. Check to see if the progress changes from 0% to 10%.

6. Assuming that everything goes well and it says it installed click next and you can choose reboot. If you choose reboot it WILL say Fail in TWRP. That's ok. Just reboot.

7. If you don't choose reboot it should say successful. I'm not sure why right now.

8. Go though the setup and make sure it doesn't throw any errors and that it installed Trebuchet Launcher & Google Play Books.

9. Report back the results.

Thanks!

5 mins left.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
Dude you are a MACHINE :cool::cool::cool:, You are VERY MUCH Appreciated. I'm interested in trying this one out. Interested in seeing Trebuchet. Will you also be releasing a TW version or option for TW in Aroma ? :D:D:D
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Oh you bet I will be releasing on with those options ;).

This is just a sample test one that's not even close to what it will be once it is finished.

It's just to see if it even boots to aroma and installs properly. Because, I can't move on if it doesn't work. :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Beta 4.0 is uploaded. Enjoy and report back what happens. Oh also make sure to read the post I sent before so nothing goes wrong. :good:
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
Ok, Just tried v4.0 :D

Error executing updater binary in zip '/external_sd/SM-T800_BETA4.0.zip
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Like I thought lol... ;)

I'll see what I can do from here.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Uploading Beta 4.1.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Beta 4.1 Uploaded. You might have to use power button and volume keys to navigate.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
Ok, Just tried to flash v4.1 :D

SYNTAX ERROR!!! aroma-config on line 124 col 1

E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/external_sd/SM-T800_BETA4.1.zip
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Cool.. That's progress. At least now it is trying to boot into Aroma. Line 124 col 1 error. So i'll try fixing that.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
4.2 is uploaded. 50/50 shot lol
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Oh and as I said before you might have to use the power button to select and the volume keys to navigate
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
Ok, flashing now...

No longer generates the aroma error during flashing. Aroma starts ok. going thru the rest of the install now.. :D, Will post results

Results:

ROM boots up :D

Ok, WiFi, does not turn on. Just stays on "turning On" status

Other than this, ROM seems to be running ok
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Great! Hope it works.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
Results:

ROM boots up :D

Ok, WiFi, does not turn on. Just stays on "turning On" status

Other than this, ROM seems to be running ok
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Did trebuchet launcher install?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
Yes, Launcher installed, and is running ok :D
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Awesome and the google app you choose did that install ok too
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
Yep, Play store, Google search.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Ok good. I'll work on the wifi issue after dinner. Can you see if it works after restarting maybe?

Thanks :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
Yep, already tried rebooting and power-cycling. Still same with WiFi stays in "Turning on" state
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Hmm. I think I might know what it could be. I'll work on it in a bit and upload another beta.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
Ok, No problem :D, just let me know what you need me to test.

Enjoy your dinner dude :D
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Alright, I did some fixing. Uploading Beta 4.3, will post the link when it's done. :good:

56% uploaded.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Beta 4.3 is uploaded. Check for the Wi-Fi Fix. And hopefully it doesn't break aroma installer lol. :p
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Well I gotta hit bed now :)

Anyone get a chance to test 4.3 yet ?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] 1nfinito:
Donwloading right now...

I've been testing 3.2.8 for a few hours, no problems so far.

Excellent job!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Morning everybody. Tried out 4.3.

Booted through just fine. No error messages and wifi connected. Is aroma supposed to be touch enabled because I was only able to manipulate it using the power and volume buttons? Also, this copy still says Tab Pro 10.1 on the top.

Not sure if it actually installed anything but nothing exploded :)

---------- Post added at 07:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:38 AM ----------

Bug report. Hulu Plus keeps trying to update but gets some weird -24 error. Everytime I open it I have to enter my login info again.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
+1

I concur :D,

No aroma error during flashing, ROM Boots up, WiFi is working. So far the ROM is running smoothly, haven't run into any errors thus far. Looking good.

AnTuTu Score = 34138

Update: Error when attempting to change Wallpaper (via pressing and holding the home screen and selecting the WALLPAPERS options from the "Wallpapers, Widgets, settings" at the bottom of the screen

Error = "Unfortunatly, Trebuchet has stopped"

But, You can change the Wallpaper by going into Settings-> Device tab and selecting Wallpaper :D, This method works

Looking forward to the stock TW version or option in aroma :D:D:D
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] suzook:
Could you tell me what you did to fix WiFi???? I'm wondering if its the same problem with the cm ported. Please let me know.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Morning,

Glad to know that it booted up and installed. When you say that it didn't install anything do you mean that it didn't even install trebuchet launcher?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Wallpaper issue should be normal I believe. Trebuchet apk isn't the latest one I just put it in there was testing to see if it installs.

:)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Ok just re flashed latest beta. No problems and trebuchet as well as Google books seemed to install properly. Other than the Pro 10.1 name and the aroma no touch issue seems ready to be populated and go.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Awesome. Unfortunately, it's still cloudy/dull/drizzling here so I still can't go in the water.... :mad::mad:

On the other hand, i'm pushing out another beta that might fix the touch issue.

What i'm thinking is that it might not even enter aroma installer and just throw an error though. Let's see...
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Well at least this is giving you a chance to learn aroma installer. Sorry the weather sucks. Been there.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Ha ha yeah. :good:

If I can just get touch working then it would be all set hopefully. :fingers-crossed:

68% uploaded so far.

82%

93%

96% ...i'm bored lol ;)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Ok Beta 4.4's link is posted. It is to test aroma installer touch. It may break wifi again but nothing that I can't fix.

Most likely it may not even start aroma installer.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Based upon some research I've done it looks as if touch may not work on aroma when using TWRP recovery. That could be the issue here and nothing you can do about it. Until we have CWM recovery for the Tab S you may just have to instruct users to navigate with the power and volume buttons.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Weird. Because, the Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1 users have a rom with touch aroma and we're using TWRP. I'm not sure why it's not working for the Tab S. Maybe it's an updater-binary issue.

Could you tell me what error Beta 4.4 gave?

EDIT: Oops, got ahead of myself, you never said in your post that you flashed Beta 4.4.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] fletch33:
just to throw in that i was using TWRP with Aroma on my S4 with no issues
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
OK, that may have been based upon older versions. Just shotgunning for answers here. :)

Getting permission error trying to download latest beta.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Oops, forgot to make it public. Check again in a minute. Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Alright, Done. Should work now. :good:
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] suzook:
Just giving a heads up, but we have cwm. Eouphoros has it working.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
For the Tab S 10.1?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] suzook:
Tab s 10.5
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Cool. Thanks for the heads up. :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] reubenskelly1992:
Can't wait for this to be finished with touchwiz
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Anyone have any luck with touch working on 4.4
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Was just wondering if the version of Aroma you are using works with TWRP or if that is a special patched version? Downloading beta now.

---------- Post added at 11:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 AM ----------

Thanks. Just saw that in his CM development thread. But when I click to download the img file I just get a page full of code. What am I doing wrong? May need to right click and save as on my PC.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
I'm using the regular aroma from the aroma main post.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
I might have figured out how to get aroma touch working if beta 4.4 doesn't do it. If it still doesn't work then I think I might have to go with the power keys. :(
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Good news is touch works. Yay! Bad news is install now fails. When the install meter used to appear now nothing.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Oh man...... :confused:
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
I can try it again. Might just have been a glitch with that install. The buttons all seemed to work until then.

One thing, the interface font is really small. Any way to increase that for our super HD screens?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Oh yeah, screen size fix is super simple. I think I may know what you are talking about regarding the install glitch. You mean that it only installs for like 2 seconds or so right?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Correct. 2 seconds. We're close I think.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Indeed. :o I'm uploading 2 more betas to test each individual thing that i'm trying to work out. (different methods). Hopefully, one of them will fix it, then once I know what it is I can share it with others to help them out. :victory:
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Sent you a link to that firmware you requested in the PM.

P.S., To any other beta testers. If this thing doesn't look like it is going to install, best to shut down before asking it to reboot. You may get stuck at the Samsung splash screen if you don't with no way to get back into recovery or turn the tablet off.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Four new betas uploading lol :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
its a betapalooza!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
;)

1-2 of them would be done by now if the internet here wasn't so sloooow. :eek:
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Beta 4.4.1 92% uploaded :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Well, beta 4.4.2 finished uploading first. Weird. :D

Link is posted. Try it for me and tell me the result. I'll post the others once they are done.

EDIT: Beta 4.4.1 is uploaded as well and the link is posted too.

4.4.3 and 4.4.4 is still uploading. One of these have to fix aroma lol.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Which one is my best bet?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Try the second one. ;)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Ok, downloading second one.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Cool. :D
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Sigh, first download almost finished then died. Trying again.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Oh, do you mean it failed on your end or is it a problem on mine?

I'm thinking you mean your internet stopped download it?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
BETA 4.4.3 is uploaded as well and the link is now posted too. :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
4.4.2 wont download. Gets about half done and craps out. Will try 4.4.3

---------- Post added at 02:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:32 PM ----------

Gonna try downloading 4.4.3 on my PC. Ok, 4.4.3 downloaded using my pc. Let give it a try.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Hmm. Strange, i'll try re uploading it.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
4.4.3 COMPLETE SUCCESS!

Congrats. You fixed it. Wifi on. No error messages. Trebuchet and Books installed.

Now we just need all the apps and launchers and a little bigger text and you should be golden :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
REALLY!!! No, touch issues at all?

EDIT: PS: can you make sure wifi connects to the network and that you can surf the web too?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ewells38:
Back in da house guys (had to step away to finish a project)

Ok, COOL :cool:, I was just going to ask which version I should test :D.

So, indeed. Just need the Apps, Launchers (TW) and bigger text in aroma..

Oh, It's ON now... :D:D
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Welcome back ;)

If you still want to test 4.4.3 would be the one right now.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Websurfing is a go Big Kahuna.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Oh, also when you say text bigger do you mean that the screen is too like zoomed in? Or like its good size just the text bigger.

I mean like does it look like a computer monitor set to 800x600 resolution or the resolution is good just the text bigger?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Great! :highfive:
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
Text on screen and on buttons is just really tiny - like 4 pts.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Shaheer:
Oh Ok. Will try to fix.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] boosting1bar:
Which recovery are you using? I've got twrp 2.7.1.1 but the touch interface is all wrong so when I touch one place it registers somewhere else, I think is expecting to be in portrait instead of landscape mode. Also, do you have a microsd card? Is it mounting properly? Thanks a lot to OP, is awesome to have someone working on this, especially so quickly to troubleshoot!!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mitchellvii:
I'm on same recovery as you and no issues. Did you do full wipe before attempting to flash? I did my flash in landscape mode.

Anyway, this is a just a beta to solve a problem and the problem is solved. Better just to wait on the final.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] boosting1bar:
I haven't even tried to flash, I can't properly navigate the recovery to even try haha. It's weird, never seen this issue in years of flashing, etc
