Press and holding the recents button doesn't seem to work.

Is there anyway to disable a hardware menu button ? I don't want disable the existing buttons (home, back, recent), just this menu button.
[Galaxy Tab S General] revthanki:
I've already told you. Gravitybox can be used to make the three dots menu overflow appear, or you can do a build.prop tweak - google it, there will be a lot of guides. You can even hit thanks if I've helped you.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jodvova:
Can't find anything with build.prop.

The only suggestion is to disable all hw buttons completely (via qemu.hw.mainkeys=0).

Can you help please ?
[Galaxy Tab S General] revthanki:
gravitybox -> miscellaneous tweaks -> force overflow menu button

reboot
[Galaxy Tab S General] jodvova:
ah! I thought you implied that I can do it without using gravitybox by just editing build.prop.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Some mornings I really hate opening this thread. Anyways, I have the button backlights working. I now force three dot menus to show up wherever i can, including chrome. Also I merged in some code from CyanogenMod. Which I guess means its time to change the name of the ROM again.

Starting from release 10 I'll just Call this ROM blck. Only semi annoying bug is related to framebuffer corruption (that I've noticed, I'm sure so!me of you will make a list ;)) Unfortunately I am on my way to Santa Cruz so it might be a little while before I have an internet connection I can use to upload it.
[Galaxy Tab S General] pegasus21:
I tried a franken-rom consisting of the following

-system from r9

-ramdisk portion of the boot.img from r9

-zImage kernel from SkyHigh

Apparently it boots fine on T705. It just doesn't have radio and has some framebuffer corruption appearing in the form of pink. I didn't test the other stuff since I just wanted to see whether it was booting. I have since moved back to TW since this is a daily driver.

Nice work though
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Getting this ROM working on the t705 shouldn't be too hard. You would need to update three or four lines in the init script and make sure you have all the relevant firmware. Skyhigh kernel has moved over to the deferred init stuff which doesn't work in my ROM.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
Your a KING bro.

I can't even acquire a properly configured build environment cause I end up twisted because of my lack of knowledge in coding .it's not simple what you devs do and I'm sure the comments can build up .just know when you pick up your Tab S and it opens up to AOSP that your the one that made it possible for all of us.smile big knowing past all the comments -/+ that we are still just as happy to open ours up to AOSP.

THANK YOU!

Anyone have any idea how I can fix the orientation of the camera on 10.5???Its 90 degrees off.
[Galaxy Tab S General] brando56894:
It's something screwed up with the code/sensors.
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Turn your head sideways.

I'll try to get you t800 owners a fixed camera.universal5420.so with the camera rotated 90 degrees

Actually. Try copying the one from the stock ROM. That might work.
[Galaxy Tab S General] pegasus21:
eousphoros, which config file is used to generate your kernel? Is it klimtwifi_01_defconfig?
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
I haven't published the current g2 kernel stuff yet. But yes.
[Galaxy Tab S General] suzook:
Lmao....I'll try it...thanks
[Galaxy Tab S General] pegasus21:
I see. So does this mean that android_kernel_samsung_exynos5420 is actually for your CM rom? The same goes for your rom posted on git too right?

Will you be posting your rom source soon or only after you've ironed out the major issues?
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Git branches are fun. A lot of the aosp stuff is up there too. I don't think the new gralloc or hwcomposer are up there yet.
[Galaxy Tab S General] pegasus21:
Doh... I totally missed the branches. Alright, I'll see what I can find. Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab S General] ggreenw:
After installing and running the rom on T800 and only a couple things stop me from using as a daily driver:

1. 5ghz WiFi networks are not showing up (I've seen this before on one of the early TW-based Roms for T800)

and

2. The external SD is not readable. It says "SD error please reformat." It mounts and reads fine in stock ROM and on my PC but I went ahead and spent a few hours reformatting it and recopying all my files, even writing zeroes to it rather than just a quick format. Aosp still didn't recognize it.

Being that that im not a dev and cant do anything about it i will thank yoh and say bravo and thanks for all the hours you've put into development can't wait to see where it goes from here.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jeffreycentex:
Your card is formatted exFAT... AOSP doesn't support exFAT... Reformat it with FAT32 and it should work...

---------- Post added at 01:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:59 PM ----------

Funny how that goes. I'm on AOSP for mainly one reason - DPI. But exactly the opposite of you. 320 is way too large... I run at 240. Gmail can show about 20 messages. Much easier on the eyes. Running 240 on Touchwiz screws too much up and I'm back to running App Settings to make things worse and get hurt/burning eyes because of the size of text being too large.. (just as an aside - the optimal resolution for any device is a 13" MBP Retina operating at the native resolution for me... )
[Galaxy Tab S General] revthanki:
Android, all about choice :highfive:

My reasoning for going 420 is that I use my Tab for two main purposes, PDF textbook/paper reading and eBooks. With a high DPI, I get bigger controls which can be hit more easily from arms' length as well as fine texts, equations and figures. The t700 is shaping up to be THE perfect tablet for me.

https://blck.io/blck_r10.zip

Here is release 10. Again another big release, thank you to the cyanogenmod guys for their code and kousch for his superuser patches/package.

I finally nailed the issue with gralloc causing some graphical corruption on new window surfaces being created. Though there is still a bug with hwcomposer that will cause the screen to occasionally lockup on window change. (Pressing the power button, waiting 10 seconds then pressing it again usually recovers it).

Another issue is if you install the cm gapps packages you will need to configure a wireless network before you install the package or setup wizard will crash and other weirdness will happen. (May happen with other gapps packages as well)
[Galaxy Tab S General] jodvova:
Awesome !

I assume it's not flashable on T800 yet ?
[Galaxy Tab S General] ohmygaa:
No, as he's said before he doesn't develop on the T800.

We'll have to wait for someone to compile it for us, [MENTION=4368441]lonespeaker[/MENTION] maybe?

Also I tried moving over the camera.universal5420.so (from a stock NG2 rom) and it didn't fix the camera issue.

Thank you very much [MENTION=2346758]eousphoros[/MENTION] for what you do!
[Galaxy Tab S General] lonespeaker:
I'll create a T800 version later today and upload it, unless someone does it before me :)

I'm also going to setup a compiling environment now I have bought a macbook so I can get back to compiling roms.

edit:

I've uploaded a T800 version to https://5.39.88.48/tab_s/blck_r10_t800.zip which I have only had a quick chance to try as I am off out now, but it seems to work ok. Backlight on the hardware keys doesn't seem to be working so maybe I've overlooked something or I need to wait till I get my macbook setup to compile properly for the t800.

Anyway, one issue I did find, when I dirty flashed over version 9 I got serious graphical issues that caused reboots so I had to completely wipe then install r10...

Once again thanks to [MENTION=2346758]eousphoros[/MENTION] for creating the rom.
[Galaxy Tab S General] touchee:
Thanks for that. Does the microphone work on your T800 with r10?
[Galaxy Tab S General] ohmygaa:
From what I could tell, no. I only tested Google Now functionality and didn't test through a video chat service.

r10 flashes just fine after a clean wipe, doesn't seem to be any huge changes. I noticed I no longer have the Google Now homescreen on my GNL (running full PA GApps). Camera still has the rotation issue, and once again tried to move over the camera.universal5420.so file from a stock NG2 rom to no avail. Other than that, everything seems to be running on par to r9. Will definitely have to test some more but thanks for the quick compile [MENTION=4368441]lonespeaker[/MENTION]!
[Galaxy Tab S General] suzook:
I think to see some issues fixed on the 10.5, we need a custom kernel as our hardware is a little bit different.
[Galaxy Tab S General] lonespeaker:
I'm going to do this myself later today.... looking into it, compiling an android kernel is not that different from a linux kernel and I've compiled about 3 million of those over the past 20 years lol
[Galaxy Tab S General] jodvova:
Is there a guide on internet on how to do that? Interested my self to give it a try.
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Im so sorry folks, in my sleep fog last night it looks like I copied the base r9 aosp image to r10. (Eg r10 was basically r9.)

Here is the real r10, you should notice a couple of changes. ;)

Doh! Mistakes happen but don't sweat it! Thanks again! Will flash as soon as it's available for the T800. (Really wish I had a T700 just to keep up with actual releases but alas...)
[Galaxy Tab S General] lonespeaker:
You can use a guide like this one http://xda-university.com/as-a-developer/getting-started-building-a-kernel-from-source but you will need to know your way round linux a little to understand.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jodvova:

I've been debating on getting into Android developing myself since I've done the same. I've been using Linux for about ten years.
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Do it!
[Galaxy Tab S General] brando56894:
I figured now couldn't be a better time, I use Linux on a daily basis, I know how to code in various languages (just haven't really done it in years, I learn quickly though), we need a dev (or at least multiple semi-devs) for the T-800 and I just bought a course on Udemy for $40 that gives you like $500 worth of courses for Android app developing and other things related to Android. I also have a pretty beastly machine to compile all this on (Core i7 @ 3.6 GHz, 12 GB DDR3, 128 GB SSD, etc...) the fastest Linux kernel compile I did was about 3 minutes....but for those 3 minutes the system was pretty much unresponsive lol
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
12 GB of ram is ok, but you will probably want more. Just linking chromium eats up 8 GB of ram.
[Galaxy Tab S General] lonespeaker:
I've uploaded r10.1 for the T800 here https://5.39.88.48/tab_s/blck_r10.1_t800.zip

It includes a freshly compiled stock kernel which now I have now got setup I will start adding in tweaks and stuff to make it better.

---------- Post added at 09:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 PM ----------

Same here, I know many programming languages but it's all about time for me. I can't dedicate the hours people expect in developing roms... but saying that I'd like to compile blck for the T800 once the sources are fully up on github :)
[Galaxy Tab S General] jodvova:
Thank you!

What do you do exactly to make it work for T800 ? Just update with T800's specific drivers ?
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
If that was a g2 kernel the two things you will want to do is make sure deferred init is not enabled and selinux is not compiled into the kernel. I also like the htcp tcp congestion algro fwiw.

As far as git hub I will work on getting more of the code up there. There should be enough though for people to get a reasonable rom put together though.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jodvova:
Flashed the latest on T800 after a wipe.

Getting some artifacts in the status bar in the clocks/battery area.

---------- Post added at 10:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 PM ----------

Is it ok to install PA gapps or CA gapps are preferable ?

Whatever you prefer, just make sure you have a wireless network configured before you do.

[Galaxy Tab S General] jodvova:
Pa apps work great.

The only two annoying things:

- no overflow menu button. Hate to install the bulky exposed framework to show it

- artifacts in the status bar (sorta similar to the framebuffer corruption bug)
[Galaxy Tab S General] jball:
Use LMT pie controls and you can have your overflow/menu actions in every app that allows them.

LMT is a small apk for downloading from a google search

Now our tablets have softkeys but no menu key so that's why I use Pie

[Galaxy Tab S General] suzook:
Your the best! Thank you...just a heads up, camera still 90 degree off. Not complaining...just letting you know.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jodvova:
I use CM to bind the menu on a long press on recent apps button, but it's just annoying not to have a menu button where it should.
[Galaxy Tab S General] formica45:
Does this rom put selinux into permissive mode by chance?
[Galaxy Tab S General] Turbojugend:
Just flashed the latest release on my 10.5 tab S. Thanks so much [MENTION=2346758]eousphoros[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4368441]lonespeaker[/MENTION], really appreciate your work allowing me to stop using the awful stock touchwiz os.
[Galaxy Tab S General] brando56894:
Apparently the T-800 build doesn't like that I have a theme installed, it keeps crashing SystemUI lol. The initial Xposed warning box no longer freezes the framebuffer, but other parts do intermittently.
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Logcat please.

Also in other news, I fixed the issue with setupwizard crashing. Still tracking down the issue with corruption in the status bar.
[Galaxy Tab S General] ohmygaa:
Strange, I'm using tung91's Android L (http://xdaforums.com/android/themes/cm11-android-l-1-0-3-7-2014-t2802926) and it has worked perfectly.

What theme are you using?
[Galaxy Tab S General] brando56894:
I've been trying to but when I open up ALogCat it doesn't show much and when I try to save it, the app crashes. I was going to use ADB earlier to try and debug things but Windows kept telling me it couldn't find a driver for the tablet even though I have the Samsung drivers installed.

I'm using the JB Extreme Theme for CM11.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jodvova:
Any chance fixing a camera too ? :)
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Whats wrong with the camera?
[Galaxy Tab S General] jodvova:
Couple of things:

- it works only for 2 seconds and then closes itself down

- it's off by 90 degrees

Oh yeah, and the overflow menu :)
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
You must be on a t800, not seeing those on my t700. Maybe try updating firmware from the stock rom?
[Galaxy Tab S General] jodvova:
:) yes, T800 and I'm on yours.
[Galaxy Tab S General] lonespeaker:
Try copying the camera libs from a stock from over and see if it helps.

There does seem to be an issue where the T800 randomly reboots but I'm pretty certain this is due to the status bar corruption so probably best waiting till [MENTION=2346758]eousphoros[/MENTION] can narrow it down.

[Galaxy Tab S General] jodvova:
Someone from above said he tried with no luck.

[Galaxy Tab S General] lonespeaker:
No, it's the wrong aspect ratio and angle. I will be trying to fix it over the weekend hopefully.

[Galaxy Tab S General] Shaheer:
In reference to camera libs. Could you please tell me the files needed to be copied in a PM or something. I'm trying to fix it on the T520 build. :D
[Galaxy Tab S General] Turbojugend:
CM used to be good, it isn't so much anymore imo. AOSP is much better.
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Aosp defintily has it's advantages but unfortunately my free time is about to disappear. So I need to wrap up and get something stable. Which I think cm11 will probably give me at this point.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Turbojugend:
Beggars can't be choosers!

As it is I use what you have as a daily driver and it's better than Touchwiz so thank you for what you've accomplished

[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Cm11 is built, the theme loads just fine. Only regression is the button LEDs arent lighting up. I'll post it into the cm thread when I get home. Unfortunately the status bar corruption is still there which leads me to believe it is a bug in my hwcomposer implementation.
[Galaxy Tab S General] suzook:
[MENTION=2346758]eousphoros[/MENTION], I checked disable hw overlays in developer options, and status bar corruption is gone. Not sure if that helps you at all.
[Galaxy Tab S General] enaybee:
I have been following your development progress from day 1. Originally when you were porting CM11 and afterwards with AOSP. But the first time I flashed your rom was when you shared r9 (currently I am on r10.1). I have to say that its almost complete with a couple of minor things here and there. I am using it as a daily driver now. This is the first time I am loving this tablet as TW gives me tummy ache everytime I see the RAM usage on it. On AOSP its just using around 500 mb ... huge difference. Tablet is super smooth and most apps work fine for me.

I can't thank you enough for all the hard work and efforts you put into this rom and made it happen. Without you we wouldn't have CM/AOSP for this tablet this quick.
[Galaxy Tab S General] pegasus21:
I just tried r10.1 with a rebuilt kernel for the T705 based on your sources and your work is very promising. I don't see any graphical glitches and almost everything besides the radio is working save for a few smaller features like the led torch.

Now I need to figure out what propriety blobs to include for radio and build the rom. How did you manage to figure out the blobs?
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
While it doesn't really solve the code problem (and more confirmation it is hwcomposer) that's amazing. Thank you, I'll drop that in my next release as a build prop tweak. You rock.

It also seems to fix the fb update issue as well.
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
A lot of trial and error and Google and looking at other peoples ports for other Samsung devices.
[Galaxy Tab S General] suzook:
Oh no....YOU rock! Thanks for all the hard work.
[Galaxy Tab S General] brando56894:
I can confirm that it fixes the freezing and corruption issues on the T-800! :victory:
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Uploading the build now, unfortunately cm seems to ignore the build.prop options to disable hw overlays so you will need to check that between reboots. (grumble). Ill update this post and the first post and the od thread with the link once its done uploading.

Here is the build. Enjoy :)

https://blck.io/cm-11-20140904-UNOFFICIAL-klimtwifi.zip
[Galaxy Tab S General] jodvova:
So what's the difference with r10.1 ? You've switched to CM from AOSP completely?
[Galaxy Tab S General] eousphoros:
Yeh, like I said earlier. My time is quickly becoming more constricted and my initial thought of building a new rom full of fun features has to be put on hold for now. Instead I decided to cut my losses and release a 99.9% working cm11 build that has a good chunk of the features I want on a daily basis.
