I would reflash kernel r3 and recovery to see whether it solves the issue
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nico1375:
How to reflash cwm? shoould I use bootstrap or rom manager?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] shmigao:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=925760

This, EXT4 version flash with Odin

Bootstrap causes a lot of problems on tab
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nico1375:
I suppose I can also flash using heimdall on linux right?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] shmigao:
i'd guess yes
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nico1375:
Well, I flashed the kernel r3 with heimdall, and I still have the same problem in CWM:
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] paulshields:
Very odd.. What is the file that youre trying to flash? I presume that you can select it ok from your external sd card?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nico1375:
No, I can't select anything...

When I select "choose zip" it gives me the error message in the picture.

It's like CWM doesn't see internal nor external sd...

I should probably reflash cwm, but which one...?

With rom manager? Since I have a euro tab, should I choose t-mobile ?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] spandsbab:
Flashed Beta 5 this afternoon and everything so far is sweetness! Thanks Paul, ur d Man!

Kiss my Tab!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nico1375:
I managed to flash starting with rom manager. It flashed beta 5, then reboot... and again in the "orange" cwm.

Then I chose reboot and it works... and I'm still on beta1, not on beta5 ...

any idea anyone?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] aguiamaster:
Paul i install the jmf baseband that you posted on modaco forum,is that bad move? I mean use with this rom v5 ?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] shmigao:
Sounds all very weird...

1st question (maybe a dumb one...) Do you have an external sd card inserted in the tab? I mean do you have one and is it in the right place in the right way?

2nd question, how do you know it is still beta1?

Then... Maybe you should start completely over with Modaco ROM "wipe" version to wipe and clean up the system
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] shmigao:
Yes it works well
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] paulobrien:
Reformat your SD card!

P
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nico1375:
1. yes it's inside and totally accessible when the system is up.

I can read / write on it.

2. in the settings > about : it says beta1. And in beta 5 the button gives the possibility to reboot, right? Mine does not...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] bpt888:
Did I do anything wrong flashing to beta5? I'm missing the PDA and CSC version info on *#1234# system info menu. The PHONE part is still there. But everything seems to be working. Anyone else have this?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] abuser0815:
i have the same
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] :
are not rellevant bugs. all in this rom works fine (at least for me, and for now) :)

great work paul!!

son bugs no relevantes. todo en esta rom funciona perfectamente (almenos para mi y por ahora).

gran trabajo paul!!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ivannw:
Paul, can you send me your defconf from your kernel ? I'm trying again....
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] hizz:
Seems I am not able to restore beta5 wipe, coming from Roto's JME ROM. The Modaco ext4 Kernel r3 installs fine, the Tab converts to ext4 fine.

CWM keeps saying MD5 mismatch, I've tried recopying/redownloading the zip file, didn't work.

Or am I doing it wrong? Should I be installing via the update.zip method instead?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ramboky:
Have you checked the posted MD5 against that of your downloaded file?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] pakalrtb:
+1 and although it does not affect the functionality of the tab, iT's a punch in your eye to see those fields missing.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Justin^Tan:
hmm

i'm on MCR beta 4 and MCK r3

same wifi problem, but it doesnt matter for me, gonna upgrade to beta 5 anyway

but somehow, these 2 days, i cant connect via 3g anymore (gprs/edge), no connection at all

it was fine when i 1st install the rom though

dunno whose fault is that, since i work on a mining area, and the only one here using my provider is me, so i can't confirm with my other colleague

but the signal is there

considering i can only use gsm to connect, not wcdma, i'm guessing i should be able to connect whenever there's a GSM signal around?

what i'm afraid is that my 3g modem inside my tab is the one that faulty?

is there an app that can check this kind of thing? is my modem working or not etc

i'm such a noob at this thing so your help is appreciated greatly

thanks before
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Palary:
Are your APN settings ok?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Justin^Tan:
yup, its ok

already double checked it

never changing anything anyway

and as I said, its worked before, about a day or so, after i'm installing this rom

do you happen to know an app that can check the modem is working ok or not without actually connecting it and use the internet?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] hizz:
yeah I have, the MD5 is the same as the one in the OP...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ayman07:
why do i have to dial a number 3 times before it connects? im using this with google voice. and when i hang up it calls the person right back for no reason. this rom is heading in the wrong direction. its slower than alpha. gonna switch back.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] shmigao:
It says beta, and that's pretty much what it is.

For me all works well apart from occasional wifi disconnect that several reported
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] natious:
flashed over v4 perfectly, thanks!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nico1375:
After reformating my sd, I was able to install beta 5.

Thanks:)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] fei243:
I am very interested in the rom.

But does anybody know if a China unicom tab, with GSM and WCDMA, can use the Rom?

And because I can not flash CWM Recovery online by Rom manager, can you tell me a way to do it offline?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] shmigao:
Yes I have the same. Works

Offline, just follow Modaco's instructions in his threads

I don't think using rom manager is a good idea. It is not fully functional with the Galaxy Tab and CWM recovery yet
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] shmigao:
Glad :-)

Nice work Paul. I'll be downloading this as soon as it goes post-beta. Great to have you developing for the Galaxy Tab.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] darrenjdoc:
No need to wait. Its excellent as it is now :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] minuet:
Amen to that. I am using it and I have not been able to detect any unstability or disconnect issues so far. And it feels so much snappier.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] fei243:
Glad! Thank you, 谢谢，春节快乐! Happy festival day.

Gonna try it ^o^
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] shmigao:
Happy New Year
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] itje:
beta 5 works good, except a problem (as reported before) of wifi disconnecting after beeing in standby for some time, need to restart the tab before it connects again.

Its damn fast, thx for your good work.

cheers
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Basil 123:
Finally I get to post in the dev section - A few days ago I flashed the B4 and now B5 mods on a Tab that was only hours old.

Paul, you are one talented dude - So much smoother, and really the reliability is well beyond a beta release. I have an N1 that I have been flashaddicted to (CM7 nightlies ATM).

I thank you - now just to flash my two kids' Tabs,lol..

I am sure that you must have considered an OC kernel once you have completed this major project. Getting the tab reliably clocked to 1.2Ghz, it would be virtually a Tab 2....

Cheers

Baz
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] paulshields:
I wouldn't worry about that. The ROM is basically a stable ROM leaked from Samsung incorporating a kernel with CWM embedded (which is the first Tab kernel that has a properly working CWM as far as I can see - kudos to Paul!). If you want to try a real beta ROM then check out the Cyanogen gingerbread that's in this section :).

I'd just flash it if I were you. It's very stable.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] crazylemon:
Adfree is not working, otherwise it's perfect. Thanks :-)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] rgbc:
What's going on with adfree, it's working fine with this and previous builds for me.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] charliebrown1321:
Adfree is working fine for me. Try to update the host and reboot or maybe delete the app and redownload?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ramboky:
Reboot does not work with USB debugging disabled.

Running Beta 5.

When USB debugging is disabled the reboot functionality does not work. When you press "Reboot" the reboot app loads behind the reboot menu and remains screened so you cannot select any option. The Tab is effectively frozen at this point so you have to hard reset.

It works fine with USB debugging enabled.

Other than that B5 is working great for me.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] paulshields:
I've found that it works for me, but initially I ran the reboot app. Maybe that's the reason? Try running the app first and then see if it works properly when holding down the power switch.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] :
hi

i'm on beta-5, and in recovery mode the "pm" command don't works.

if you execute it complains that the phone is off.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ramboky:
The reboot app on it's own works fine, it just doesn't come to the foreground when I hit "reboot" from the power off menu. The power off menu remains stuck on screen and there is nothing I can do but force a power off by holding the power button.

I tried opening the reboot app then closing it, then using the power off menu. No luck. I also tried opening the reboot app and keeping it open when I hit the power button, same problem.

Are you sure you have USB debugging unchecked? If so I guess it's just me...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] paulshields:
Ah, sorry. I didn't note that you had USB debugging unchecked. I always have USB debugging checked. It's the first thing I do with any ROM. How else could I use adb? :). Is there a reason why you don't have USB debugging enabled?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ramboky:
I don't have any particular need to have USB debugging off but reboot really shouldn't hang the Tab just because it is.

It's far from a big deal, but it is pretty annoying until you work out the problem.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] suilow1991:
Hi Paul, latest JMI was released, so will you move over to it from JMG?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] :
install another launcher is possible,

but if i try to delete the stock launcher and next wipe the data/cache,

the acore and phone process FC's

same if you delete Stk, Browser or Email apps and after a time you wipe

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] :
hi,

great work.

can you confirm if "pm" command works when you're in recovery?

THX
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] paulobrien:
The pm command never works in recovery AFAIK - the system needs to be 'up' for the package manager commands to work.

P
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] :
thx for yr speedy answer!

it's possible to install (via other command) a app in /data when you're in recovery?

"adb" has a parameter "install" is not based in "pm" this command? or not works in recovery also?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] savit:
That was fast :)

Thanks :)

Savit
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] paulobrien:
No, that won't work from recovery either.

You can only install stuff when the system is up.

P

PS 'adb install' just calls 'adb push xx' then 'adb shell pm xx' really.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] shmigao:
By the way, I get a "not found" error with remount command.

Also, the fix permissions script in CWM recovery is wrong, as it points to the wrong folders. Can anything be done about that?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] paulobrien:
remount from recovery? Again, you wouldn't generally do that from recovery because /system wouldn't be mounted r/o in recovery anyway.

re: permissions fix, if it's a recovery change, Koush needs to make it...

P
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] :
ok,

i will continue with my 2-steps customization script:

a) Deletion of not required system apps (in recovery mode)

b) Installation of my backup apps (in normal mode)

agree!!

everything running good but my message the keyboard is not showing at all,it just pop up and close back.also when i press the turn off button when the menu open i click reboot and it just hang on there not doing anything.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] paulobrien:
Swype? If so, then 'clear data' on Swype in Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications.

P
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jayavinash:
i cant find swype application but i did clear data on the samsung keypad application but it is still the same
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jayavinash:
i change the input mode to samsung keypad and the keyboard is showing now but when i press any letter it appear "null" on the message.Android Keyboard is working fine,samsung keypad is still showing "null",swype mode is not showing the keyboard
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] paulobrien:
Ah, yes, I need to fix that for the Samsung keyboard.

For the Swype keyboard you need to do what I said above.

P
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] wallah:
I have the same problem with keyboard and also with the option to reboot :(

edit : everything is ok for me, it's my fault I delete the application to restart :(

excuse !!!!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jayavinash:
Ok i manage to make swype work but the power option always get hang when i click the reboot button.

looks like the download server site has just recently been blocked by my country.

Is there any other download site that I can use please?

Thanks, Baz

It seems that the nyud.net bit is the problem - I have been trying to download repeatedly but blocked by Bahrain's censorship.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] shmigao:
i am not the one that asked whether these cmds can be used in recovery ;-) - that post only triggered me to share two things that i have discovered earlier but haven't shared

no... 'remount' doesn't work when (phone on and USB debugging enabled) using adb shell or terminal emulator

e.g.:

remount rw /system/

gives me an error "remount not found" (or something like that).

regarding CWM recovery "koush needs to make it"... i think koush has departed from developing anything for the tab, hasn't he? he doesn't own a GT either..., there wasn't any development on CWM recovery for quite a while...

anyway, currently i am using the attached fix_permission.sh (v2.03) that was fixed for the tab, but i have to invoke the command as follows:

sh /sdcard/fix_permissions.sh

maybe you can build it into the ROM, so that using adb or Terminal Emulator only "fix_permissions" is required... guess that's a couple of symlinks.

all these are not top priority, just some observations i made and suggestions.

really glad you are working on the tab! thanks for the great work
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] shmigao:
i have problems with the download link too in China. now connecting / downloading via VPN, but it's awfully slow (at 18MB, and it says 6 hours left..., at least i have something to flash when i wake up in the morning haha).

maybe a mirror or 2 could help

One small question: Does anyone else have problems sending emails via gmail? My emails are stuck in the outbox forever.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] rgbc:
I had this issue once, knowing that the following will delete the emails in your outbox, go into settings/applications/manage applications/all/gmail and clear data, this will reset the gmail app, reopen to sync email again and then try a test send.

I'm stuck at the galaxy tab boot screen. Its not going past that. Was on beta 5 trying to get to beta 7. Using nowipe method.

EDIT possibly because I themed it and would need to do a wipe??
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] :
i'm sorry :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] shmigao:
Possible if the theme modified system files and / or framework.res.

Flash full (wipe) version may help resolve the issue

im now on beta 7 but i have some issue with message.when im receiving message it goes under different contact which that number i receive message is not associated with the contact it shows.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kay_kiat88:
that's not a rom problem. it's google's problem. it's a well known sms bug which sadly have been around in froyo for a long time.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] paulobrien:
For users with the 'phantom voicemail notification' (users who purchased Tabs without phone functionality?), I guess there are 2 options... either remove the Phone APK (I assume you can't use it anyway?) or install a patched one that ignores the Voicemail triggers (i've made one, i'll post here if there's any need).

Thoughts?
