It doesn't have problems with downloading apps from market. I caused that problem when i installed new market 3.2 seems that it isn't compatible
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] maxtcee:
The new market fails to download apps because of the 2.3.5 finger print also the cm7 smartass doesn't work with this build

On side note has anybody been able to use hdmi dock on this
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] slimdizzy:
I use jpz its fine.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] 200mpx:
Ok, thanks! Will give a try
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] slimdizzy:
When the patch get merged into the CM7 branch. Who makes the patch doesn't matter. But once that happens Tech can sync/build/release and we are good to go. It should be noted that I think it is not Tab specific but certain devices from Samsung all have this problem. I remember my Desire had this issue when CM6 first came out. It was eventually fixed. Of course someone could make a patch and just post it in the forums but the above way is the "official" way to do it.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] andnej:
I managed to install cyanogenmod 7 last night. i m using JPZ modem, but hav not tested calling.

By moving to cm7, I lose:

QuickOffice

Ebook Reader

TouchWiz

which is expected because those are samsung's. But in return I can freely install any apps, like Gmail 2.3.5 blacked out, GMaps with full navigation, etc

I cant install them trough market but hey, there is apktop.com

I have a bit of problem though.

When I turn on USB Storage, windows can recognize my sd, BUT it cannot view its content. Wonder why ? anybody facing the same issue ? I m using Windows7. Is the sdcard accidentally get converted to ext4 ?

I install by wiping to stock JQ1 (stock rom from overcome), then flash zImage and factoryfs using heimdall, using the latest cm7 on page one.

I also wonder why its 2.3.5 and not 2.3.4 but cm7 for x10 mini pro also stated 2.3.5 as their version (while official cm 7.10 rc is 2.3.4). As long as its working I dont care,
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Droum:
If you go to CM7 site and pick up the latest nightly, you'll verify that it's 2.3.5.

If you pick up the latest stable which is the 7.1.0 RC, it will be 2.3.4.

RC it's not a final version, it's a Release Candidate. A big step in their development since it's the version used in bug reporting.

Google launched the 2.3.5 at the end of July for the Nexus S, CM team adopted it 2-3 days later and after that all ROMS downloaded from Nighlty Builds section are 2.3.5.

CM7 didn't launched an RC or Stable Release with 2.3.5 yet, not because it's not stable but because they just launched 7.1.0 RC a few weeks ago. All their work now is on 2.3.5, and the "final" 7.1 will be 2.3.5 (if they don't jump to 7.2, they have their own versioning).

Like you said, don't worry about the version because you have the latest one :) a version that lot's of devices not supported by CM would love to have. Unfortunatly, those same devices don't have a "Technomancer" of their own hehe.

About the USB issue. I also have Windows7 and I can see internal and external sd cards without problems (jumped directly from Overcome to the latest CWM image with the usual cleanups).
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] R3dF1v3:
Before I make my request, I must say a huge thanks to Technomancer for his work on this ROM - since I got my Tab, CM7 was the one thing I wanted on it, and here it is! :)

Now, not wanting to reignite the 'sdcard' vs. 'emmc' debate, I was wondering if someone could create a vold.fstab file for me, which maps the internal storage as 'sdcard', and the external SD card as 'sdcard/external_sd'? Flashable via CWM, if possible.

I did try the file from the first post, and while this mapped the internal storage to 'sdcard', the external card could not be read. I then found a later post (I forget who, but thanks!) with a flashable zip, which mapped the external storage as 'emmc'. While this works, it has thrown a spanner in the works when it comes to the main use of my Tab - ComicReader.mobi cannot see the (almost) 30Gb of comics on the SD card. Due to the limited free space on the card, this is why having it mapped to 'sdcard' is not practical.

If somebody can do this, you will have my sincerest gratitude. If not, it was worth asking...

Thanks for listening, and (hopefully) thanks in advance. :)

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] adi6262:
please ! some one fix the video recording !
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] R3dF1v3:
Technomancer - I've just retried the file from the 1st post. Internal memory is mounted as ;sdcard', but nothing shows up for the external sd card, and checking storage in main settings suggests the Tab is still looking at 'emmc', but can't read the card - it just says 'Unknown'.

I'd already tried that file, it just isn't working for me...

Sorry.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] andnej:
Thanks for the info, i like this rom.

I just tried force uninstall the Samsung Usb Composite Driver, and reconnect it and it detected.

I already tried pushing the vold.fstab as mentioned on page one and success

can I mount the external sdcard to BOTH /mnt/emmc and /mnt/sdcard/external_sd ?

if yes, how ?

if no, i dont like the way settings->storage monitors /mnt/emmc while the external sdcard is actually mounted on /mnt/sdcard/external_sd, how to change it ?

EDIT: dizgustipated has magically read my mind and answered it, many many thanks

I tried smartass from the post i quoted and it restart every time i apply the changes, which smartass should i use ?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] adi6262:
please ! the devs ! a request ! fix the video recording !
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] R3dF1v3:
Thanks for any assistance - I found a solution to my sdcard/external_sd issue in 'another thread'.

:)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
Hey, dont worry, you are not invading anything, and thank you for your help. Please attach your fixes to your post and I will link to it from the first post.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] R3dF1v3:
Dizgustipated - If it helps, what solved the problem I was having with the 'vold.fstab' file in the 1st post, was your advice about editing a line in 'build.prop'.

Tech... You are AWESOME! I'm away for a month and come back to a new update that fixed my BT issue with my Motorola headset!! YOU ROCK THANK YOU!:D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
I did not change anything, I swear ;-)

It must have been fixed upstream.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Jeffro64:
And it keeps getting better... modem switcher works again also! Well you and whoever is doing things upstream are awesome.:D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Leonick:
Could someone maybe please help me a bit here.

I am rather new to both Android (at least advanced stuff) and my Tab and can't quite make sense of all these JQ1, JJ7, KA1 and what not... (if you could make some sense of those that would be awesome :p)

The important part there is that the bootloader isn't protected right?

My Tab is a Euro GSM, it's updated to the latest version available trough Kies (gingerbread) and I have rooted it with CF-Root (which doesn't work with protected bootloader), I should be fine if I wanted to put this on my tab, right?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Yeah, this will work fine :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] adi6262:
Can some one please give a comparison bween cm 7 and latest overcome ? Comparison in every thing seed,battery life, whats working , whats not and most important : personal expireince. Also I have heard that cynogen mod does not have google apps . If its true from where can we get these apps ?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] R3dF1v3:
I got it from hxxp://goo-inside.me/gapps/. The file I used is the first one on the table - the universal installer.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] paulshields:
You're best just installing it and finding out if it fits your needs, but personally I much prefer this version of CM7 than stock, or the stock tweaks (Overcome etc). The only things that aren't working for me are the rear camera for video recording, and HW acceleration for some HD videos. Everything else I find works much more smoothly in CM7 than other ROMs. In particular, the framework for streaming Flash in BBC iPlayer is way better than stock. As I watch a lot of TV on this thing it's an important asset, but may not be for those who don't use that app.

All Google apps install fine on CM7. After install you'll be prompted to select which ones to install when you first load up Market. Alternatively, you can select them yourself via the Market app.

Battery life is fine for me even when overclocked to 1400, but everyone has different experiences based on usage patterns.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] enriqxxx:
I have a UBJP7 p1000N Latin. I installed the kennel voodo_v4 and install this rom, but I do not touch and he works back to 2.3.3. version.

I happened to follow or I need to do?

Greeting Maracaibo Venezuela
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] andnej:
From my personal experience, CM 7 is faster than Overcome, in its standard unmodified state is 2000++ in Quadrant compare to 1600++ on Overcome Jupiter (have not tried Kratos). On overclocked state, CM 7 gets 3288 on Quadrant, forgot how fast it is on Jupiter.

Speed comes at a cost, that is battery life. In standby state, I left Overcome Jupiter without doing anything from 2 am to 7 am, sync on, all on, and i only get 2% reduced. While on CM7 its greater that that but i forgot the actual number.

In terms of Google apps, CM 7 does not have google apps preinstalled, on Indonesia, the market does not show gmail, gmaps, etc and not able to install it via market even using the installation dialogue provided by CM7. But its no sweat, its actually a good opportunity to install Maps with Full Navigation mods which you can get from apktop.com . FYI N**** costs 30 USD, while Wise***** costs 60 USD if i m not mistaken and both are for 1 country map only.

If you like, you may install the blacked out gmail as well, and if you want to upgrade, its just a matter of uninstalling and install. No need to wipe using titanium backup, no need to uninstall using titanium backup, no need to sweat because the new app does not install on your device.

What you will lose are: stock ebook reader and think****. I use Ald*** to replace the stock ebook reader, the ability to switch pages using volume button is a plus, yes i lost the 'real book feel' but the animation is forgettable. as for think****, I believe that its inability to read from google docs is a bit iritating, its inability to save as 97-2003 doc format is also iritating. I bought quicko****e for 15 USD and it greatly cure my iritated heart.

I m still evaluating cm7, and its my 4th day using it, its quite short compared to 8 days using overcome jupiter and 14 days using stock DXJPE. But I m searching for the most suitable one and perhaps CM 7 ported by Technomancer is the one suitable for me. And today I try to use it the way I used DXJPE before and see how much battery I can get at the end of the day.

EDIT: I would like to add that this awesome rom does not block any ads, its suitable with my idealistic view. Ads are a way to pay the developer for his hard work, besides buying the pro version. I dont trust Google with my credit card number yet as I prefer to use paypal, so ads version or other market alternatives such as andappstore is the only way for me to support the developer. And I m grateful that this rom does not block any ads :D

I think you can easily flash it without wipe, you only need to do factory reset, wipe dalvic cache and cache partition.

I myself do a wipe installation, I changed my rom to stock JQ1 provided by overcome, then immediately flash zImage and factoryfs from cm7 and voila I get bleeding edge android 2.3.5.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
This ROM is straight CM7 port and is designed to give you the same experience as CM7 on any other device. As a matter of policy CyanogenMod does not block any ads, and if anyone wants to do it themselves, there is AdFree on the market.

Personally I'd rather pay or donate to devs via Paypal and I don't trust Google with my credit card, luckily I can charge my market purchases to my cellphone account.

As for gapps, you can always install them from goo-inside.me. The update.zip doesn't have them anymore because CYANOGEN_WITH_GOOGLE=1 build mode has been broken recently. I still integrate them using my script in the Heimdall build.

@enriqxxx and P1000N/L folks. Latest CM7 releases here use EF17 OpenGL libraries which need new PowerVR kernel module. So the kernel Humberos made a while ago will not work (bootloop). We need to wait for P1000N/L GB kernel sources release.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] adi6262:
hey tech can you please tell me how long will it take to fix the video issue ? ( I am already downloading the rom :D ) and request , please try to give video recording more priority :)

Something strange happen as i tried out boca rom which is supposedly running cm7 gb 2.3.5

I did a cwm backup then flash boca Rom. Dodnt like what i see so i do a restore. It turns out that none of my app were reinstated and the osy version says 2.3.5. However through build shows ur kang build.

The actual version of CM7 from you is near PERFECT!!! :p
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Flash the update.zip from recovery, no wipe. Or if you flash using heimdall only flash factoryfs.ext4 and zimage, no repartition.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Necrolust:
Weird question but when i flashed CM7 It was a little borked. My internal sd was mounted under emmc so the OS was using my external sd as its main storage. Is this normal behaviour for CM7 on the tab or did i do something wrong?

Mind you, i flashed it the same way i did on my sgs so i might have actually missed something. I also wasnt near a computer so i used the cwm file. If thats the problem and i should be using odin/heimdall, let me know!

Cheers.

can't install

hi all,

could somebody help me out please? I just can't install the ROM. I'm using Heimdall Frontend 1.3.0; downloaded the tcm7beta-2011-08-07.zip; extracted this .zip file; phone is detected by Heimdall in download mode; loaded the factoryfs.ext4 under "Load package", but after extraction finished, I'm getting this error message: "firmware.xml" is missing from the package.

I've downloaded and extracted the tcm7beta-2011-08-07.zip again but I'm getting the same error message. start button in Heimdall is not active, can't flash...

when I'm trying to load zImage, I'm getting this error from Heimdall: "Tar header contained an invalid file size."

what am I doing wrong? why it's not working for me? please help me.

thank you.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] 200mpx:
Had the same issue with Heimdall, so I flashed a custom ROM with CWR and installed CM7 through CWR
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
The new version of Heimdall is a little funny.

What you want to do is extract the zip you have downloaded to a known directory, then open up heimdall. Click on the "Flash" tab then click on the browse button next to the PIT file option. Navigate to the pit file supplied with the ROM and select it. Now, underneath the box to the right you need to click on Add. When you do this a drop down menu to the left will become active. Change the highlighted option to Kernel, then underneath it click browse. navigate to the extracted zImage and select it. Now click add again, change the dropdown to factoryfs then click browse, select "factoryfs.ext4". Heimdall will issue a warning about the extension, just ignore it and carry on. Do the same process for cache (cache.ext4), and dbdatafs (dbdata.ext4). It will issue the warning for both of them, just ignore it and carry on.

Once done the flash button becomes active, and you can go!

If you need/want pictures, let me know. I'll update this post :D

i try " *#*#3214789650#*#* but nothing happen.

anyone have other way to fix this GPS problem please tell me.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Please don't quote the entire OP, it's a complete waste of space.

Most of those codes won't work on CM7. GPS works fine for me, what's wrong with yours?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] 441892:
GPS work with me also.

but hard to log GPS signal. It took a while to log signal.

in other ROM this code wont work but there is an App called "AngryGPS" enable it to run LBS test mode

I don't use video recording so I don't mind that it is broken. The biggest headache for me is the market incompatibility. I read back to posts from the beginning of August but didn't see any solutions. Thus far, I'm just installing stuff to my Evo, backing up with TB, sending to backup file to the Tab, and restoring there with TB. Convoluted but it works for the most part.

All in all, love CM7 on the Tab because I hate TouchWiz SO much. Thanks for the hard work.

Is it possible internal SD at /sdcard in CWM recovery?

Hello everybody,

As I did not got any answer on MIUI forums, could anybody help me on it?

I have no external SD card, so I simply can not flash any 'update' or ROM from CWM recovery. Currently CWM recovery 'search' for updates on /sdcard, so even I changed the fstab to mount CM7 internal SD onto /sdcard, and at the usage of CM7 it is work as it need, but in CWM recovery I could not reach my internal SD. (If I manually mount it in mount options the 'flasher' could reach the 'updates' just from /sdcard so not help...).

Are there any possibilities to mount internal SD onto /sdcard in CWM recovery to flash ROM from internal SD?

Lot of thanks in advanced!

Sir, I can't found anywhere a version of your ROM, compatible with my Tab :C

(Like 2011-07-20)

Is it there a solution to my problem ?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] andnej:
ah, u r a p1000l user

either someone uploads the previous release for you or you wait for a compatible kernel.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] eboIa:
So nobody can help on how could we mount internal SD at /sdcard in CWM recovery to flash updates from that in the future? The other fstab make it but just in full OS but, not in CWM recovery... :(
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] slimdizzy:
Short answer is that if your using a CM based ROM (eg MIUI or CM7) then you need the ext card. Use one of the Touchwiz based ROMs and you can use internal storage. Different kernels.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alroger:
I usually boot recovery, enter adb shell on my PC, edit /etc/fstab and change mmcblk1p1 to mmcblk0p1 and then mount /sdcard. After that I can use CwM normally.
