Thank you for the tutorial. But the size of the splash.img file created with .bat is around 18mb, though the logo.png file was just 250kb. Is it ok to flash the IMG file?

Yes it is

Would this also work on a P3110 (the one without 3G)?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zidane01:
Yes it works but very tricky to select or skip. I got bored tired at the last phase as I couldn't skip the registration... I chose something and I get something else the touchscreen is not responding accurately the keyboard is very faulty... It you are good in guessing you may get it done. .. . The boot take time to show a tiny circle (you may think the device is still off or bricked) the battery charging indicator in off sometimes shows sometimes not... .

I hope the devs fix this version or at least get us something installable
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] wdehoog:
Tried to install it on my p3110 but that fails.

If I try cm-12.1-20160323-2204-UNOFFICIAL-espresso3g.zip it says that this is not for my device.

If I try cm-12.1-20160323-2136-UNOFFICIAL-espressowifi.zip (which seems to suceed) then the installation of sfe-espresso3g-2.0.2.48-alpha2-20160914T202958Z.zip says:

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Installing update...

Installation aborted...

When rebooting it seems to start the newly flashed CM.

I have ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.1.1
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zidane01:
Installed with both cm12.1 espressoswifi and espresso3g .. . I think you better use twrp the latest 3.0.2.4 from Andi folder twrp is safe and best... My tab is p3113 and what work for p3113 works for p3110 for sure
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] wdehoog:
I would like to try that but I cannot get twrp flashed. My windows 10 pc does not see any fastboot device, twrp manager does not get root permissions and when doing 'dd' from a shell I keep getting permission denied.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zidane01:
I don't have a PC and able to flash any zip, img. And tar to my tablet

You said you have cwm recovery installed use it to flash twrp ( first 2.8.7. 0 in case your device is not rooted it will install su for you, you reboot to update su then reboot to recovery and install twrp 3.0.2.4)

Use kingroot or kingoroot to root your device if the above fails then use twrp Manger to install the Recovery)

What rom are you using?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] wdehoog:
After installing update-supersu I could flash TWRP recovery. Installation of sailfish os still fails:

Could not find 'META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary'in the zip file

Error installing zip file .......

---------- Post added at 02:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 PM ----------

It seems I mistakenly downloaded the whole folder from google drive which creates a zip that ofcourse will not install. Now I extracted and tried to flash sailfishos-espresso3g-release-2.0.2.48-alpha2.zip. It fails with:

This package is for '.......' this device is espressofiwi

Update process ended with ERROR: 7

Error installing zip file

When trying to flash the espresso3g file the same error as before: wrong device.

---------- Post added at 02:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 PM ----------

After modifying updater-script (accepting espressowifi) installation started and finished successfully.

After booting got 'Ahoi', Choose Language, TimeZone, Jolla Account (skipped), Tutorial (skipped), a busy indicator started which is still busy.

When rotating the tablet I see the background appearing, rotating and disappearing. Busy indicator still running...
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zidane01:
I have installed it got it booting.. Boots in more than one minute The touch screen is faulty and terribly lagging . No apps work....beautiful but Not worth wasting time. You better wait for a better updated version.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] wdehoog:
Busy indicator kept on going so I started to swipe and now I am in the sailfish ui.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] yacuken:
yes and no. this build specified to 3g variant. for wifi (3110/3113/5110/5113) needs to build another. but I don't have wifi variant. and don't know about device specific stuff
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Kill4File:
Стоит ли нам ждать обновления или ты забросил планшет и работаешь только под 1+?

Should we wait for the update or you threw the tablet and working only under 1+?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] yacuken:
This project is active. Sorry for long delay.

I'll try to update soon.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] yacuken:
Updated
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Kill4File:
Yeah, thanks. Have tested it couple days ago. System has been reseted after update and now I can't login with my Jolla account (it says, that IMEI is different).
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] yacuken:
IIRC jolla account/store/etc is not enabled for community support.

Jolla works on it.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] han2327:
hi. im interested in the SFOS, i did what was instructed. the main problem is the orientation screen. mine was in landscape but if wanna navigate, i have to remember how the potrait orientation function (e.g swipe up on the phone, the screen swipe to the left)

also, i am using the latest alpha4 and twrp 3.0.2. i am using galaxy tab 2 7" p3100. do reply as soon as possible
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zidane01:
Anyway to install this OS on p3110 or p3113
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] blacksailer:
I had the same on P3113, needed to make a little magic.

What I did is changed some config files ( gitlab.com/blacksailer/P3113 repo is here. clone it, and copy this files to the same directory via ssh over wi-fi). Write if there will be problems

---------- Post added at 12:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 AM ----------

Yes, there is the way. I've installed it on my P3113. What's your problem that you stumbled upon?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zidane01:
Cool what rom did you use cm12. 1 espressowifi orespresso 3g. I used what the dev suggested I got touch screen impaired so I couldn't finish the settings.

Please upload the zip you used in p3113 I mean sailfish os zip
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] blacksailer:
ROM is espressowifi.

I've installed espresso3g version (but I added new line (espressowifi) to file "updater-script"). After that i've completed tutorial and everything ( buttherted a little ), but finally connected to my wi-fi with password (butthurted a lot). And from my laptop connected to P3113 via ssh and changed configs.

This correct configs in my gitlab repo in post above.

But if you can wait, I will edit sailfishos zip file so you will not have to do it manually. But I can do it on next week.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] blacksailer:
Ok, I've edited image today. Installation goes fine. You can download and install to test it.

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zidane01:
Thank you thank you for your generosity I'm downloading and install later. Just a question : will this os be better replacement for Android :good:
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] peppe0808:
Good job guys with this os. I have one question how can i install android apk? Thank you
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] blacksailer:
You can't install apk on Sailfish OS ports for now because of licensing issues. Only on official devices (Jolla Phone, Jolla C, Intex Aquafish, Jolla Tablet).

---------- Post added at 11:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 PM ----------

I had a Jolla Phone for two years, fulfilled all my needs (but for business needs not so aplicable, lack of native office apps. Used android ones). But accidentally it fell off to ground and crashed screen and can't find replacement. So for now I am on android phone and tuning my tablet for this:)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zidane01:
beautiful and smooth os but can't match android or Windows or even come close. Jolla store is empty and the apps on the rom are not efficient. The browser sucks
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zidane01:
Is there any way to install any Android apps like file manager and browsers. The Jolla browser sucks badly. The Jolla market is almost empty
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] blacksailer:
sorry, but there is no way to install android apps.

However there is unofficial app manager - warehouse link to app - openrepos.net/content/basil/warehouse-sailfishos . But first you need to accept installation of untrusted apps in settings.

P.s. if you want, you can download rpm packages from openrepos.net copy to microsd and install it. (To open file manager Settings->Storage->file manager in pulley menu)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] amrhelmy2004:
bug on screen orientation p3100

thanks alot, great work

there is a bug in screen orientation

display and touch screen isn't synchronous

when display is on portrait mode touch orientation remains landscape and vice versa

this is for the last build sailfishos-espresso3g-release-2.0.5.6-alpha4.zip tested on p3100

Do not install alpha4 it contains broken tar archive!!!!!
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Galaxyninja66:
Just a note for people wondering, you can get android apps on sailfish os, it requires some tinkering but its do-able. You grab an alien dalvik rpm, and edit a platform_extraenvsetup.sh file for your device.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] martinbook85:
Hi there!

Does anyone know if there are any possibilities to get the hotspot to work on the tab 2 (P3100 or P5100)? Does anyone have any updates on how this port works in daily use with the Galaxy Tab 2 (P3100 or P5100)? What bugs are still there? Any new updates?

Also, does anyone know what the best ever device to run Sailfish on, is?

Thank you!
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] martinbook85:
Trying to install apps from warehouse it seems that every useful app gets the same error message:

Status: dep-resolution-failed

Extra details:

nothing provides libQt5Core.so.5(Qt_5) needed by harbour-gps-tracker-0.1-1.armv7hl

I am really looking for some equivalent to "Google Maps" where I could find myself and use the GPS. Is it possible to find such an app that also works?

A different thing is that the Jolla Browser doesn't work for me. Everything is gigantic and I can't zoom out. It's unusable. I tried to follow the instructions regarding the browser in the installation guide but to no avail. The screen is all white.

At the moment it seemst that I will need to uninstall Sailfish OS and install a Cyanogenmod or Lineage OS instead. Sailfish OS is very nice and I would love for it to work, but at the moment I don't know how to get it to work.

Does anyone know if it is possible and how to get the following:

-YouTube App

-Functioning browser

-Some kind of map app (like google maps)

-What'sApp

---------- Post added at 07:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:30 PM ----------

Is there a post/thread about this to find somewhere? I would be very interested in getting some apps going, otherwise I will need to go back to android.

Thanks!

/Martin
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Galaxyninja66:
It's in depth. I really should make an adaptation tutorial...

Ill post instructions when I get the chance (which should be later today)

to put it short, you grab the rpm and platform_extraenvsetup.sh files, isntall the rpm like normal, then edit the file paths in the platform file to match your device (since they are for the Nexus 5 by default), and just go trial and error it up

I could probably make one for you that you can try

paste the output of the following commands in a reply:

ls /lib

ls /lib/egl

ls /lib/hw

ls /system/lib

ls/system/lib/egl

ls /system/lib/hw

ls /etc

If one fails just keep going, very rarely is every folder present and populated.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] martinbook85:
Thank you so very much for answering! I really like the OS and want to continue using it. If I can, I will be very happy!
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Galaxyninja66:
follow the instructions on this site, accept don't install the platform_extraenvsetup.sh

http://213.128.137.28/showthread.php?t=98800

I didn't realize that the Galaxy Tab 2 had so many library files missing. Lets cross our fingers, but this most likely won't work. You can always just dual boot.

Basically when you want to switch to the base rom and Sailfish OS you bot into TWRP, and flash either the Hybris boot image for SFOS or the base rom boot image for the base rom.

---------- Post added at 01:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:48 PM ----------

Also for Youtube use YTPlayer

For maps I recommend Maep (no navigation but you can see streets, satellite, its neat.

For whatsapp they have unofficial clients but I hear whatsapp might ban accounts using them (why?)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] martinbook85:
Browser problem

Since I have browser problems, can I download it and transfer it from the computer? In what directory should I put it?

I also have problems with USB-connection - the computer does, but the device does not, understand that it is connected. Anyone experience similar problems? This means I cannot transfer files from the computer to the device. Would it be possible to let the device download it through terminal? I know that on the first page the instructions "post install" make the device do that.

I don't know if I might have done something wrong when installing Sailfish that made it lose all those library files. Is there any way to get them back?

I tried to install YTPlayer through Warehouse but it seems to not work. Jolla store seems to not let me install anything. Did you see the error message that I get. Do you know what that could be all about?

Thank you for your help! Much appreciated!

Cordially,

Martin Book
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Galaxyninja66:
I don't own this tablet, but if you are having issues with YTPlayer then video most likely doesn't work. If you are having issues with browser rotation then someone else is wrong as well. This doesn't sound like a very stable port (no hate, just pointing out facts), and with all the missing lib files that are needed by aliendalvik ports, I don't see this as a good daily driver... At least I know to not buy a tab 2 10.1 like I was planning to.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] martinbook85:
But it seems like other people are getting their Browser to work, for example. There is supposed to have been some problems with video but I think it says on page one that it has been dealt with.

The problem that occurs with YTPlayer is the same as for many other apps. When I try to install something from Warehouse this is what I meet:

Status: dep-resolution-failed

Extra details:

nothing provides libQt5Core.so.5(Qt_5) needed by harbour-gps-tracker-0.1-1.armv7hl

I will try to fix the browser again as is explained on page one here. If it doesn't work I might give up as well.

Thank you for trying!

Cordially,

Martin Book
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] martinbook85:
Thank you very much, yacuken, for making this port. I love using Sailfish OS!

I do experience problems, though.

Is there anyone who can help me with browser problems? I have followed the instructions in the first post and thereby installed sailfish browser nightly. Before that I could see webpages on the screen, but they were way too big and wrongly oriented. After following the instructions the screen just goes blank white. The browser does not load anything. Does anyone know what might be the problem?

Thank you!

Cordially,

Martin Book

---------- Post added at 11:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 AM ----------

Something very interesting happened. I went into an app called "Components Qt5". In there is a web view tool and through that I got webpages loading beautifully. I find it so strange that it does not work through the built in browser when in another app it works magnificently.

Cordially,

Martin Book
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] John944S2:
I wonder if anyone is still interested in this port :confused:

I have a p5110 and there are basically the same problems as [MENTION=5656257]martinbook85[/MENTION] experienced.

By the way I had to add the name "espresso10wifi" to the updater-script files to install on p5110.

What we need is a current version of SFOS, at least the problems regarding installing apps should be solved then.

[MENTION=5155774]yacuken[/MENTION] or [MENTION=7836209]blacksailer[/MENTION] can build this for the current SFOS version?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] blacksailer:
qOk, I'll try on next week.

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] John944S2:
That's really cool, looking forward to that!:good:

That doesn't work because apps cannot be installed. Therefore we need the new Sailfish version.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] B3L13V3:
This happened to me, now I didn't get much help when I asked around these parts and for the life of me all the "guides" that are at your own risk were of no help. I opted to send it in to Samsung for a repair explaining the situation of a "corrupted" OTA situation only to be told there was water damage beyond repair and repairs exceeded phone value and got my warranty voided...now this was on a 1 month old device that never went in any moisture rich area. The status was never brought to my attention and phone was on its way back to me when I checked in, I climbed the ladder to a supervisor to explain how unprofessional their behavior was for no solution being offered to me. Luckily the package was sent back to me with no signature required and...well **** I never received my package. I held samsung responsible and got me a new phone with signature and ups pickup at their expense to insure it wouldn't happen again. Good luck
