After some brief testing on the 10.5 heres what seems to be working/broken with the build i modded. (Kernel,Wifi Driver, Updater Script)

Working: Audio (mono), screen auto brightness/rotation, bluetooth (paired, didnt try audio), SD Card, video and audio played back okay with default players and wifi works with the driver change.

Partially broken: Back/app switch buttons on the tablet work, but dont light up.

Broken: Camera (Force close? - Will look into this further)

Notes: Unsure of GPS. It wouldnt flash with TWRP for some reason but Worked fine with CWM.

Tried running afew apps, games etc all seemed to be okay.

Hopefully this is useful to the dev! I'm Happy to test any mods that might help get the other bits working and I can keep testing as you update your 8.4 build.

Im happy to share anything I modified to get it working, but as 99.9% of the ROM isn't my work, i'd rather help get an offical build from the dev rather than upload anything without permission.
[Galaxy Tab S General] suzook:
Do you have a link? Can I give it a try?
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Was that a modified r2 or r3?
[Galaxy Tab S General] Enddo:
congratulations on the camera milestone. keep up the great work :)

it's fun getting to watch the progress as it happens

I have stereo audio now working with the builtin speakers. Still working on the mic's. Fixed crashes related to microphone. I think its just going to be a matter of line by line audit of the mixer.xml vs tinyucm to figure out what I got wrong when I converted it over.

Here is release 4 now with stereo sound and some bugfixes for audio_primary

Somehow netflix broke again. *Grumbles something about DRM*

-----

And a question. As I approach the end of my porting efforts as far as nailing bugs and broken features (Yes I know there are still a couple of lingering things to nail down) I can't help but think about what things I would like to add to this rom. Browsing around, particularly paranoid/omni, one of the features that stood out to me was the floating windows stuff. Would you hate this? Prefer to install it thru xposed? Any other wish list items?
[Galaxy Tab S General] revthanki:
Only one thing, sir, fast charge enabled in the kernel, meaning that we can get this power hungry beast charged through a computer USB port in decent time. Everything else I need to do I can do through Xposed.

In terms of examples [MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION] has a pretty canonical implementation on his Github, I think similar things can be achieved through Synapse as well.

Please consider this, as near everything else can be implemented through Xposed but fast charge needs kernel implementation.

Do you know if by Christmas the media/video player crashing bug will be fixed?
[Galaxy Tab S General] PewPewK:
You'll have to excuse my ignorance, but is it even possible to port the fingerprint scanner capability? It is the one, sole feature on TouchWiz that I would like to still have on AOSP. Every other horrible, bloated aspect of that ****ty software can go to hell, bar that one feature.

I have no idea if its even possible to port it. As far as I know, since they're basically the only one with a scanner out there and it requires their own special lockscreen, I can't imagine it is possible or easy to port.

Of course, it's really just a superfluous feature. I will not sacrifice a pure Android experience for one tiny little nicety, but if it is at all possible then I'd like to see it. :)

Everything else I can think of can be achieved with Xposed + GravityBox. Probably wouldn't use floating windows, but it'd be a cool feature to see regardless.
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
I'm going to need a bit more information. I haven't seen a player crash in awhile.

Video file format

dmesg/logcat around the time of crash would be useful

Any other relevant context information
[Galaxy Tab S General] iRepz:
On apps like Youtube, Default video player keep crashing when video playback is played like your cm11 port
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Have you done a format of /data and /cache (Factory reset)? I just went thru the suite of videos I have. Everything from 480p to 1080p (2 GB) in mx player.. ran thru youtube.. and the default player. Didn't get a single crash or force close.

Sorry but since I am not seeing it I am going to need more details in order to help.
[Galaxy Tab S General] iRepz:
Il format it thanks for the great works il donate if there is a page
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Sounds good to me. Added to the top of the list.

Re fingerprint scanner, I'll take a look. Thank you all for the feedback so far. :)
[Galaxy Tab S General] revthanki:
It appears that root is broken in r4

UPDATE just forgot to flash Super SU in recovery, all working fine.
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
If you install supersu thru recovery it should be fine.
[Galaxy Tab S General] PewPewK:
Alright, just installed my first Tab's first custom ROM. Got myself into a little bootloop at first, but attempting the install again worked. Only thing I've noticed not working so far is the backlighting on the capacitive buttons.

Edit: And vibration when using the buttons. Also the rotation artifacts are still in.

But I'm sure none of this is news to you.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
[MENTION=2488049]revthanki[/MENTION]

It seems to not be worked into the builds cause I've noticed since the first update that root brakes.
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
The beginnings of it are in place but I haven't put too much effort into it as its in the features list vs the bug fixes list which is what I am trying to work off of when I get the time.

Though occasionally things on the feature list will annoy me enough by their absence that I will push them to the top of the stack. (Eg, busybox)
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
Its all good ,some ROMs I use with my Nexus 5 loose root so I always flash supersu as a installation procedure, your still NUMBER ONE in my book buddy

Never mind the first one.. Apparently Touchwiz formatted it as ExFAT, which AOSP apparently doesn't support...

Also, wifi passwords do not seem to be remembered between reboots....
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
Yes sometimes the WiFi requires the password and sometimes it don't .no big deal for me cause I don't reboot much anyways.

[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
You are the second person to report the WiFi password issue. I haven't been able to reproduce that one yet. Any context that you think might be useful?
[Galaxy Tab S General] jeffreycentex:
WPA2 is the only thing I can think of.. I can test on a WEP and WPA1 network tomorrow....
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
I use wpa2 at home. Any mods? Weird messages in logcat?dmesg?
[Galaxy Tab S General] PewPewK:
For what it's worth, I'm not seeing the WiFi issue either so it's not universal.

Hrm, I also noticed any non-mkv videos are not playing for me. Stuck on MX player loading screen for 45+ seconds then it force quits. Same happens with other video players as well. Will try to replicate more in morning.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Enddo:
Oh man, stereo sound. Things are starting to get finalized now :)

I have a lot of stuff going on with work lately but I am going to install CWM, make a backup and then install this AOSP port :) I'm excited to see if it's ready enough for me to use as a daily driver. I only play a few casual games and watch 1080p blu ray rips via BS Player. I can't wait to check things out.

Thanks again Eousphoros for all the hard work and time you have dedicated to this project
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Can you give me more information on MX player? Container format, size, are you using sw, hw, or hw+? Stack trace/ dmesg/ logcat around the time of crash would be amazing as well.
[Galaxy Tab S General] SS2006:
Stupid question. How do I get the menu and back button to vibrate on touch again. I liked that
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
Sound settings

Nexus 5 via Tapatalk
[Galaxy Tab S General] SS2006:
Thst was my initial thought but enabling 'vibrate on touch' only makes the app drawer button vibrate, and not the menu and recent apps buttons
[Galaxy Tab S General] Enddo:
Sounds like a bug. If you can upload the logcat(I believe that is the log that the developer wants) then maybe it will help him locate the issue.
[Galaxy Tab S General] suzook:
Will we see a release soon?
[Galaxy Tab S General] mitchellvii:
Gave this a quick run on my T700. Observations:

1) Fast. Kind of like actually surprised me fast. Kind of like actually made me consider giving up multiwindow to have this, fast.

2) Even Dolphin Browser with Javascript enabled loaded pages quickly. Odd that at first it was slow, but once it "broke in" it was pretty quick and Dolphin is miserable with javascript typically. Also it proves to me that TW really is making Javascript slower :)

3) For some reason this made me lose my Titanium Backup license and I couldn't seem to get it back. Weird. Restored prior TW install and created update.zip for Titanium which I hope solves the problem.

4) One thing seemed odd. The latest version of YouTube would only play 720p maximum even though I played videos I know where 1440.

5) No other glaring issue I could see.

Oh yeah, Antutu scores awful but I expected that as the rom is probably not optimized for useless benchmarks. I don't care about scores, I care about fast and this feels fast.

Well done.
[Galaxy Tab S General] SS2006:
After toying with this ROM for 2 days, i find the following bugs (other than the ones already listed, rotation glitch etc..)

1) Youtube app is not being told that our tablet can go up to 1440P, because I had that option on stock, and now 720p is the highest,

2)For me, this one is most important, the microphone, because I usually do voice searches ('OK Google!')

3) Recent apps and back buttons do not vibrate on touch, even though vibrate is turned on under sound

They also don't light up

Other than that, its my daily driver. EXCELLENT STUFF :D

Is this still testing on the 10.5, or is it out somewhere to download? Thanks
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Good news everyone! With the patches I did yesterday to the audio hal + auditing the mixer_paths.xml I have the microphone working.
[Galaxy Tab S General] SS2006:
You are amazing my friend.

I found 2 more problems in addition to what I said above

1) WiFi connection is forgotten upon reboot

2) tablet won't charge with screen off of it is turned off. Plugging in cable is booting the tablet into twrp when it is turned off
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
I am not seeing either of these. I would suggest a factory reset (format /data, /cache)
[Galaxy Tab S General] jeffreycentex:
Mine is forgotten (i.e., no password remembered) if I reboot the tablet with the Wifi on. If I turn the Wifi off before I reboot it, or if I turn wifi off then back on, I don't have an issue..

My guess is that the wpa supplicant can't load the file with the passwords until a later time during the boot and never seems to retry loading the password list...
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
I've tested powering off.. adb reboot.. shell reboot.. and my wifi password is remembered. Unless you guys can provide more details there isn't much more I can do.

https://blck.io/blckasop_r5.zip Now with working microphone.
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
It looks like you are playing that over a samba mount? Does the same thing happen when you play it when the file is stored on the tablet?
[Galaxy Tab S General] SS2006:
So i flashed CWM recovery in case TWRP was the problem

wifi still forgets password on reboot, but i found changign settings to 2.4 ghz only fixes it sometimes, as in 50% of the time if I reboot it remembers it, either way not a biggie, i dont reboot my tablet often

But the tablet still turns on and boots right into CWM recovery if i plug in the charging cable while it is turned off, can someone else try this? It shows a charging icon for 10 seconds, thinking all is well, but then it just turns on and goes into recovery.

*Using CWM recovery that is linked in your CM thread, and using latest PA gapps 4.4.4
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Ooh there is a nugget. I've been using 2.4 GHz stuff. I'll try the 5 GHz at work tomorrow and see if I can't reproduce. Thank you.

Just as a heads up. It looks like I broke YouTube app (browser still works), probably due to the selinux stuff I started on. I'll try to get that fixed tomorrow.
[Galaxy Tab S General] PewPewK:
Well, I'm trying to test it, but my device seems to be on the fritz right now. Can't tell if its my laptop, or my Tab, but can no longer get the Tab to show up as a media device. It's listed in adb devices, but attempting to push anything is met with... nothing. Just sits at the command forever, not doing anything.

So probably need to tackle this first before I can test if the video is working or not.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
OK two things

Battery life is great is the first thing(thank you)

The screenshots do this scrambling like in this pic

Let me add I've been running your AOSP build since day one and its still my daily driver,I will never go back to Touchwiz
[Galaxy Tab S General] PewPewK:
Tried getting my Tab S to show up on multiple computers, all are failing. adb devices lists device as connected, however all commands that interact with the device fail (ex: adb push).

Tried fixing it with with a clean install with release 5, but problem is persisting.

Anyone else having this issue or am I alone here?
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
I never thought it to be related to the ROM but now that you bring it up.my adb also shows my device but it won't mount as far as looking in my internal or external memory.

[Galaxy Tab S General] mitchellvii:
Interesting. After I first flashed this and before restoring my apps it was blazing fast. After restoring all apps it slowed way down. No unusual apps were running in the background and I made sure not to restore anything incompatible.

Still getting the rotation artifact glitch but it is completely different than the CM glitch was. Instead of lines it is more like a diffuse shotgun pattern.

[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
How many apps do you have/use

No unusual lag for me,less than before this ROM
[Galaxy Tab S General] mitchellvii:
Lol who knows, lots but internal storage nowhere near full. Rom is about as fast as TW rom was but my point is before restoring apps this rom was much faster than TW. Even JavaScript enabled web pages loaded blazing fast. After loading apps was back to normal. No idea the cause.

Sent from my SM-T705
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
I have 21 added/downloaded apps on top of the apps that came with the build totaling 41 apps and no difference from the first day I flashed this ROM,I do wonder why

I've read in other forums that what works for one my not work for another,kinda like our devices have there own minds/souls as wacky as that sounds
[Galaxy Tab S General] xda0996:
It was me that had it running on the 10.5, theres no offical build by the dev that im aware of.

I havent done much more with it as i dont really have the skill/time to support and maintain a build properly (Happy to help anyone that does!). The 8.4 builds are coming along really quickly thanks to the dev's awesome work and many of the fixes made in each release are working on the 10.5 from what I've seen - I've decided to be patient as once the 8.4 builds mature alittle more, fixing any issues with a 10.5 build should be much easier for everyone.
[Galaxy Tab S General] mitchellvii:
Yeah I have no explanation for it. Could be real could be placebo. Could be a certain app I have changed things somehow. No idea. I expected the Antutu benchies to be off a bit but mine were like 28000 which is off a ton.

Anyway not making judgements just reporting results as they come in.

Sent from my SM-T705
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Its not just you. Its on my list. Mtp and adb fight for some reason. If you go into asettings and disable mtp in storage settings the problem goes away.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Enddo:
If you can boot into Safe Mode(I'm not sure if this is available on this tablet) then you can rule out third party applications. So if things are speedy in safe mode then it's most likely a 3rd party application that is slowing down the device.

But I agree with the possibility of it being a placebo. That's a powerful effect.
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Quick vent (SEAndroid) sucks! </vent>

Not to mention the samsung se stuff in general seems to be pretty custom. Just to give you an idea of the complexity; here are some stats.

libsepol.policydb_index_others: security: 1 users, 2 roles, 695 types, 9 bools

libsepol.policydb_index_others: security: 1 sens, 1024 cats

libsepol.policydb_index_others: security: 84 classes, 88291 rules, 724 cond rules

Which works out to around 927387 lines of sepolicies to work my way thru.

Though unfortunately I am in the part of the dev cycle where I can no longer avoid this task.

---

Side note: Part of my retrospective on making this rom is going to be about how anyone who attempts to make a rom has to be a crazy son of a ***** with a will of fire, and skin of iron. To do this stuff properly is truly an amazing amount of work.

I've got the latest release working on the 10.5 but I can't get wifi to work no matter what I try. :crying: but other than that it's working great.

I cannot thank you enough [MENTION=2346758]eousphoros[/MENTION] for doing this for us all :)

edit: I have now got wifi working.
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
If they had a device that had a screen/form factor on par with the tab s I probably would have went that route. Anyways I'll get this working. SEAndroid is just not one of my strong skills so its taking more effort then most of the other stuff.

Almost there!
[Galaxy Tab S General] Trance56k:
Do I have to do a fresh install after each release or can I just flash the new release over the old release without losing my apps?
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Sometimes that works, though usually you have to delete your google account and reconfigure it. Though no promises. I am still making a ton of a changes under the hood. This is for brave souls only who are willing to destroy their tablet in the name of progress.
[Galaxy Tab S General] suzook:
Call me crazy,,, but does this not have root???
[Galaxy Tab S General] Trance56k:
Great! I'm enjoying the ride and still prefer this over Touchwiz.
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Nope, just install supersu thru recovery. It will get added at somepoint. Just the chain of patches for settingui/etc were a bit scary and I wanted to audit them before I applied them.
[Galaxy Tab S General] suzook:
Thanks..that did it!
[Galaxy Tab S General] jeffreycentex:
On the list of minor/trivial things to fix, the compass is off by 90 degrees.. I think this is a build.prop issue because it used to be a problem for older AOSP devices....
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Coorelation != causation, but it can sometimes be a hint. Thank you for the heads up. I believe I remember seeing that define somewhere. I'll add it to the list.

As an update I've added about 8000 selinux rules. About half way there.

I won't mention any bugs or missing things because obviously you are still developing it but I'm happy to test specific things on the 10.5 side if you need so other 10.5 users can enjoy your work too. :good:
[Galaxy Tab S General] suzook:
He is not working on a build for 10.5. We need another Dev to work on the 10.5 for us. Hopefully we get one soon.
[Galaxy Tab S General] lonespeaker:
Ah well I'll just keep using this unofficial version with it's minor issues until someone with dev experience comes along and has the 10.5 and wants to help :)

I am able to compile the rom but I wouldn't know to fix the problems :(
[Galaxy Tab S General] suzook:
To be honest, I don't think anyone would mind disabling selinux....it would make things drastically easier for you.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Trance56k:
What is SELinux purpose?

[Galaxy Tab S General] lonespeaker:
You need to copy system/etc/wifi from a stock samsung rom into this release for wifi to work - well that's what I had to do. Other than the camera having some weird aspect ratio issue I can't fault this release at all, it's super Smooth.
