[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] L3R0N:
1. I haven't used mobile data on this old thing for quite a long time so I really cannot address the connection issue.

2. I'm aware that signal is always low (1 or two bars). No idea why.

3. I haven't seen this issue on mine. I use this build from the time I uploaded it and home screen is fine.

4. Chrome v49 was the last version of Chrome which supported non neon devices like ours. If you want Chrome that badly then go to apkmirror.com and download Chrome version 49.

5. Unsupported Device means just that...the device is unsupported. I guess their devs no longer wanted to support non neon devices like ours. Try going back a few versions until you get one that works for you. p5 instead of p7300 has nothing to do with our device being unsupported.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Dr.Fix:
I did some tries about signal, the issue is that the rom reads a wrong value: the dbm value should be something negative around -90, -70, but it reports a value of +2621 or something like that.

Probably its just a "view" issue but I hope to have the right strength.

I tried flashing different modems, all with the same result, I suppose that something has changed in Lollipop in how the signal strength value is read from the modem (which is from kk).

I should try if with a KK rom it works correctly or not.

Some posts ago you told me that it should be possible to build a 3g working M rom but I didn't understand the steps (zimage and so on), could you point me in some direction?

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] L3R0N:
You'd need to decompile a boot.img from a 4.4 ROM and the boot.img of a 6.0 ROM. Inside you have a ramdisk and kernel file (named kernel or zImage depending on what you used to decompile) you need to rebuild a boot.img using the ramdisk from the 6.0 boot.img that you decompiled and the kernel/zImage from the 4.4 boot.img. when you've done that simply go about porting the ROM as you normally would except you use your newly created boot.img.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Dr.Fix:
That's a little bit too difficult for me :)

In the meanwhile I found another issue: the tablet cannot be charged while off, it always turns on when I plug the power cable...

I tried installing Figue-boot-v18-p5-L from TWRP but it gives me "Error executing updater binary in zip"....

EDIT, I looked at TWRP logs and found that kernel installer tried to access/modify a couple of missing files, so I created them from adb shell:

touch /system/etc/init.d/00random
touch /system/etc/init.d/99power_opt

Now I see battery indicator while charging from off :)

EDIT2:

SIM card not seen by system anymore.... :( restoring backup...
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] L3R0N:
Offline charging has been disabled. The device will boot when connected to the charger. It's the same on the p4 as well.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Dr.Fix:
What's the reason behind the decision?

Any way to re-enable it?

Thanks

EDIT:

another bug: if you turn on the tablet while plugged into charge SIM is not detected. (I mean, plug the power cable while device is off, it turns on)

Hi dears ,

wich link of marshmallow is for P7300??

Tnx
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] L3R0N:
There is no Marshmallow for the P7300. You can install the P7310 rom on your P7300 if you want to.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] abadan:
Ok , wont happen any problem??
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] L3R0N:
No. But you will lose 3g features. Your tab will work like a WiFi only device.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] RandyRando:
Just flashed the P7310 on my P7300 and it has a strange issue. The battery level shown is above 3000%
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] L3R0N:
It shows the voltage. Its the same for both versions of this tab and I think its the same on the p4 as well.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] bierma32:
If you now that 4.1 V. are 100 % and 3.6 V. are around 20% ,so it makes no different . I use this Rom since 6 month with out probs.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] RandyRando:
At first I, didn't associated the number to the voltage. Everything makes sense now. Thanks :good:
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] abadan:
Would someone share screenshot please,

TNX
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] bierma32:
Here are some Screenshot from the Rom after flashing there with TWRP, but there is in German .
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] HannibalLecter:
Hey Buddy

Which ROM are you running on your tab currently?

I was wondering if you'd be kind enough to try building an update to whatever ROM, 5.1.1 I suppose, are running :angel::angel::angel::D

---------- Post added at 10:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:06 PM ----------

I had missed this build all this while and had been using the p5wifi one. Which one is better? Your P5wifi one or P5 (this) one?

Now, going to flash this one and will use 3g data over it :D

How amazing would it be to try an update for this old boy :D
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] HannibalLecter:
Brother, Would you be interested in updating this one. It works great. If you could simply update the security patches and lil bit of some performance improvements, it'll be awesome. :)

thanks a LOTTTT :D
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] L3R0N:
These Roms are ported from the p4 to the p5. They were not built from source. Updatin security patches etc is a big no no cause decatf stopped building 5.1.1 ages ago. I have no problems with Nougat..what issues do you have? Maybe I can help you solve them.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] HannibalLecter:
The latest opengapps do not work with the 29 sep N build. Google play services keep crashing on setup. cannot even set it up.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] -Light-:
bro can you look after laggy youtube? youtube gets frozen sometime when viewing in the rom.

and some other minor laggy issue, no usb otg function, else the rom is perfect with both data and voice working like charm

or else could you try making nought with data and voice working if possible, would be great
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Alexander Kalinin:
Hi!

This ROM compatible with P7300?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] milan_love:
Hello L3ron hope that everything is going fine with you, please i have a question about the 5.1 wifi build and the kernel used in.

I have a p5 and i like the latest 5.1.1 wifi build, it's very smooth and with govtuner it works great but i'm having issue with its kernel , it's working great, but when i charge the tab it dosen't show the correct percentage when charging and after a reboot ( it affects the battery, while charging it shows and sticks for exemple at 45% and after a reboot it shows 68%, and then it drains the battery quickly and disorganize it).

I'm sure my battery is calibrated and it's an issue related to this kernel because i tried the latest p5 build with the cm11 kernel and also the v18 kernel, and those two do not make this problem.

Please Is there a sollution that can help to keep the latest p5wifi rom kernel and fix the problem. Thnx

Edit: i figured out that the kernel figue v17 is working better than the other ones, and it solves the problem.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] mrabracadabra:
hi

everything works just fine. i always had batteryproblem but here on this rom its shown in voltage so my problem is solved. the oknlky thing that bothers me alot is the gallery. when i open a video it will just hang!!! or sometimes pictures.. they are showb in black.installed many apps but still have the problem.. any solution??
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] skubko:
[MENTION=2002216]jolinnard[/MENTION] - thanks for keeping our tablet alive :)... I have one question - not really related to ROM itself - regarding your comment about GAPPS. You mentioned that you do not flash them anymore. Does it mean that you are not using google services anymore? Would you maybe advice me which alternative you are using instead of it? I am also considering it and I would like to hear some suggestions :)... Thanks...
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] dnulman:
Same problem here with gapps, I went back 1yr and they work initially from the old versions but soon as they auto update they start the crash process again
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] rajmagi:
mygapps updated latest and not crashing, but im using 4.0.4 ics tho
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] dnulman:
Yes 4.0.4 is not affected by any version it was actually latest stock so anything built off of it would always be fine, however, every other ROM is affected by this I tried like every single one in the forums.

Version 6 is the latest and seems the be the most recently updated but is still affected by broken gapps which is really unfortunate because we need a google market to install apps

I'm not grabbing every app offline to install thats ridiculous, also Kodi is broken :mad:
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Bennockee:
Getting Apps from the Play Store without Play Services isn't the problem (works flawlessly with Raccoon and a Folder Sync Program like Resilio Sync), however some Apps rely on the Play Services and won't work without them. :(
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] dnulman:
exactly, I agree and well added to my point

Also, it's super annoying to get that pop up on the tablet about it crashing every 2min and having to click ok for it to go away

It's such a shame because this really does bring our old tablet up to date quite well otherwise :(

So no solution I guess?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] skubko:
I have just asked this question also in 7.1.1 Nougat ROM development thread. Hopefully somebody will find a way :)...
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jolinnard:
Exactly. Google services is huge now, so it take a lot of memory and cpu... So, now, it's running with AOSP only. You can use some apps to have email, messaging, etc... And there is F-Droid, apkmirror, etc to install apps.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] dnulman:
Any plans to make it work with gapps?

I hate bloatware personally and like aosp myself, however, the Pico version of gapps does fine for my needs, it is very minimal, honestly I only need play store and gmail so I wish there was less than Pico version.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] arvinp:
This is not for P7310

My P7310 says this is ROM is not compatible. Could it be because I am on CWM instead of TWRP?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] skubko:
That is strange, I tested this ROM with my P7310 last week and it was working perfectly fine...
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] arvinp:
with cwm or twrp?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] skubko:
sorry, I did not see your update, that sentence was not there when I read it, but apparently was there when I quoted it :)... anyway, it was TWRP - this version...
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] arvinp:
Thanks very much for your reply and link. I will install twrp and and the ROM.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] arvinp:
Please create a rom for the P5 (P7300) as well.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] HairyScot:
Hi,

I just flashed [5.X.X/4.4.4][P7300/P7310][ROM, Kernel, Recovery] Jolie contributions [13 May, 2015].

Everything seems hunkydory but I have hit a couple of problems with Google Play Store:-

1. When paging through the list of My Apps I occasionally get "authentication is required. you need to sign into your google account", but I am already signed in to that account.

2. The message "Unfortunately Google Play services has stopped" also pops up occasionally.

Any info or help would be very welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Problems with Calibre

Anyone using this rom who uses Calibre?

I'm getting some glitches with both USB and Wi-Fi connections to Calibre.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] StarkCity:
Niiiiice..... Been awhile since this thing has ran. Back up!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] HairyScot:
Unfortunately due to problems with Calibre and Calibre Companion I've had to give up on this ROM, which is a pity because everything else was great.

Trouble to connect Keyboard

Hallo,

i have succesfully installed the Lollipop ROM on my Samsung Galaxy tab 8.9!

I now have trouble to connect my Keyboard to the Tablet. It is a Keyboard with a Doc Directly from Samsung that worked Fine on Android 3.

As soon as i connect the Keyboard the Tablet just freezes. I then have to turn it off by holding the Power Button. And the light of the Keyboard stays off.

Does someone know how i can fix this?

I would really like to keep using the Keyboard!

Thank you a lot for any help!! :)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jolinnard:
Sorry mate, this device is very old and I don't use it anymore...

Try to execute "adb logcat" and then attach keyboard and maybe you see something.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] netwhr:

[MENTION=4404851]decatf[/MENTION] is there any possibility that we get an update?????? :) [MENTION=2002216]jolinnard[/MENTION]
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jolinnard:
Sorry mate, I don't have this tablet anymore.

If you want to try, this ROM was adapted from P7510 (see this post by [MENTION=4404851]decatf[/MENTION]). If I remember well, decatf released a ROM for p5wifi, try to as there, maybe you are lucky.

Cheers

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] bierma32:
Search one YouTube " how to install TWRP on Galaxy Tab 8.9 "

Than you can follow it step by step.

Important is that you now the steps to boot to the Recovery.

Important 2

You need TWRP 2.8.7.0 and Odin 3.07 , not newer Version.

Also enable developer settings and USB debugging.

Oh... really? I changed some parameters like swappiness (reduced to minimum) and min_free_kbytes. After a little research, I think these parameters included in v15 should work better.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] L3R0N:
Yes indeed!!!! I haven't seen the issue surface yet. However, mobile network now disappears sometimes when the screen goes off and only a reboot will fix it. Tab sleeps and wakes just fine now. I have the dmesg log but whenever I attempt to take a logcat the tab goes off....I tried with terminal emulator as well as through adb but the tab keeps going off. Will reflash and try again.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] bierma32:
[MENTION=2002216]jolinnard[/MENTION]

You have about news , you working on a Lollipop Version for our Tab, im still waiting for news. Thx for your work.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jolinnard:
Yes. I need help to rotate the screen, so I want to play with the code. That's because I post that on p4 forum.

I've successfully built SimpleAOSP, but I don't have experience in ROM base, so it doesn't boot :( So, if I can get full p4 sources should be easy to build it myself :)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Ren Hayashi:
Storage

After flashing this for the first time (Nameless), storage says I only have 3.25 gb of available space. Where did all the memory go, exactly?

This is all I did:

- Flash TWRP (f2fs)

- Flash Nameless v11 f2fs

- Flash gapps (f2fs)

- Flash SuperSU (v2.16)

- Flash f2fs v15 kernel
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] L3R0N:
I had that problem and I noticed that another zero folder was created and the previous one was copied over as a folder. So on sdcard there was 0, android, alarm, music etc. I simply copied the 0 folder over to my computer and then deleted the one on the tab and reflashed the ROM. When the ROM was done flashing I moved my files back. The first time I tried moving my files from 0/music to music I lost everything even though the copying showed complete.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jolinnard:
But that happens coming from ICS? In my scripts there aren't any copy of /data or /sdcard... Could be a Nameless feature or Android KK.... if it detects that you are coming from a legacy Android structure it tries to migrate, but it copies your old legacy folder instead of move (or rename).

So that folder you say is /data/media/0/0 ??
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] L3R0N:
Yes. I was coming from the nameless20141108 ext4 build. The first time I flashed it that happened but flashed it a second time and all was OK. BTW the issue with the tab not turning the screen on after it goes to sleep is a nameless bug. I've seen users comment about it in the p4 thread. It surfaces when you over clock and change the governor with the device control app in my case. Seems like the one in the 20141108 build has some issues. It was suggested in the p4 thread to switch the app to the one in the October builds to fix that however, I don't know if it works because I haven't bothered to try it.

I haven't seen an updated homemade version as of late but the nightly builds are updated since the latest version is 20141124. I ported it and used it with your kernel(I removed the f2fs support) and it works fine...maybe you should switch to the nightlies instead? Btw omni 5.0 is out.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jolinnard:
Ok, I will upload a nightly version as soon as I have some time.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] L3R0N:
I would've uploaded mine but my ISP is doing some network upgrades in my area and my internet is terribly slow as a result so its a no go.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jolinnard:
It's ok. It's not necessary ;)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] L3R0N:
Cool.....off to find me a text book:(
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] nqk:
Anyone has a mirror link to the 4.4.4 rom? I tried four times with the link on Post 1 but it was always disconnected half way. It was fast though. I don't know what F2FS means so I think I need the ordinary one, EXT4?

Thank you.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] StarkCity:
A lot of users flashed awhile back and got the 0 folder...... It's caused by the recovery you're using. A few builds back and on another thread it was said to re flash and the 0 folder would go away. What's weird is the device will still pull and use all the data from the 0 folder, but when you save new stuff, it puts it in the new created folder. Like multi-user support. Either way, they've found the fix. You just gotta find the thread.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] StarkCity:
Top....
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jolinnard:
Thank you. I can post an advice to the first post with that info. I never have had that problem. I think I migrate all my sdcard stuff to new structure before first JB/KK flash.

Use my Mega account as a mirror. My VPS provider is having some issues.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jolinnard:
New kernel, new Nameless release

New releases today. Nameless is based on nightlies now. I have (finally!!!!!!!!!!) fixed a very old bug with bluetooth tethering client. And I think I've also fixed CPU max freq issue after boot. I disabled all modem stuff in p5wifi kernel initramfs, which avoid a lot of messages in dmesg. Tab is running incredibly fast with latest Nameless and v17 kernel. Nightmare is the default governor now, with a few tweaks extra in init.d script.

Please, try and post your impressions :)

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] L3R0N:
Gee just got home and here this was waiting for me. Thanks. Going to download and flash now. Will report later. BTW, have you any idea what might cause the mic to not work in voice calls? I don't use the feature often but once in a long while somebody calls me on the number whose sim I have in the tab and I would very much like to answer it. I know you don't have a p5 3g but maybe you have an idea what might cause it? If you do I'd like to know so I can have a look at it.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jolinnard:
I have no idea.... Maybe a logcat could be useful. Most permissions of devices are set in init.p3.rc (inside the ramdisk), maybe we need to add something in it.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] L3R0N:
OK. Maybe a comparison with the stock ICS init.p3.rc file to that in the kk kernel would turn up something. The new kernel works great. The boot animation blacks out after a few seconds but this is because of the conversion to f2fs of system and cache. I say this because this doesn't happen when I flash the same kernel except without the f2fs support. It did the same with the ROM I ported yesterday using the v15 kernel. I've had two reboots to the offline charging screen when the tab was left for about 10-15 mins. It was connected to the charger so I'm not sure if that's got anything to do with the reboot. Otherwise this is the smoothest I've seen with kk on this tab. Everything runs great. Web pages seem to open a tad faster or its probably my imagination, however, pages wouldn't load the first time I connected to my WiFi until I rebooted the tablet.
