After installing the kernel I seem to have lost access to all of my apps and data. When the Tab boots my homescreen is almost empty now. It has the mail icon and 2 or 3 others. None of the programs I installed are available and even the google apps like the market are missing. If I go into settings and applications I can see all of my apps but they all show 0 bytes.

Does anyone know a way to regain access to all of my stuff? I am using the sprint galaxy tab.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] b-reezy:
any possibility you could PM me the source? I just picked up the sprint tab and would like to try to get some development rolling on this tab.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kenfly:
I suppose this kernel doesn't support bootanimation.zip s
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Boushh:
https://github.com/KhasMek/linux-2.6-sgt but if you're going to be building sprint specific kernel's you should start with the sprint kernel source.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cruiserbax:
I agree, dont get me wrong this kernel is amazing on my sprint tab. There is no substitute for the speed and cwm, however building from sprint source would posibly fix usb sdcard sharing (not so important) and GPS (would like it to work but can live without it) all in all this kernel rocks!!!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Boushh:
It's going to be the only way to fix the usb sdcard issue I think. Also, I have just recieved confirmation that Bluetooth HID support is working for certain devices in my latest test kernel, so that's pretty rad.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] markgamber:
Excellent! I'm pretty psyched to put my keyboard to use. Six pack of decent stuff in PayPal for ya when I get to stick it on my Tab. :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Boushh:
What keyboard do you have?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] markgamber:
The "small" Apple keyboard. Got it shortly after the iPad so it's not quite a year old.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Coolsaber57:
Success!

Well, I got my tab back and performed a roto backup first thing. Then flashed this kernel and got myself re-set up, going good so far!

One heart attack I did have was I downloaded the kernel from the front page and flashed it. This did not let me boot past the samsung logo and I thought my tab was hosed AGAIN, one day after I got it back from the repair center!

However, I remembered that Boushh posted an updated kernel later on in the thread. Flashed that, wiped data and cache and she booted right up!

Boushh, you may want to update the OP to prevent people from flashing the broken v3 kernel.

Also, anyone have any good settings for the voltage control app? I have no idea what my tab can/can't do.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tedum88:
Does anyone have a problem with this graphic intensive?? Games like hero of sparta crashing? While I'm playing gameloft hd games... my tab just freezes with no response kinda like how pc freaks out on you. Its not a huge problem... but still I wanna know if I'm the only one.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cruiserbax:
Just like a pc overclock, some chips dont oc as well as others even though they are identical nakes and model. Try using setcpu or the voltage control app to limit the freq to stock 1000MHz and stock voltage and run the same games and see if they stop freezing. If it stops freezing then try stepping up the freq to 1200MHz and try again until you find a stable speed and voltage for your device.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] shoman24v:
Any know know why when I tried to do this it said not enough space on data data?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jones7773:
Virus? on Android? Is it possible???

yesterday, my tab was running Great, using voodoo w/oc kernel (finally, thankfully), when, all of a sudden, wi fi dropped; tried to re connect, msg "error can't connect" - and nothing helped. ..then, i tried to open a document in "documents to go" & get "read-only file" couldn't access.

anway, it progressed exactly like a virus does in a computer, destroying operational files. and, finally, after trying everything i could think of, i had to completely re-flash from step one.

i probably could have just done a restore, but, i had deleted the dalvick cache, thinking maybe the cache might have been part of the problem. ..if it ever happens again (which i hope it doesn't) ..i am just going to try to do a nandroid restore.

but, that, leads to the original question ..... can a virus infect an android os??
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Boushh:
That makes me so happy!

Now all I gotta do is find the money for one! :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Boushh:
also. LOL.

Yes. Yes virus can infect any OS but what you had was some major data corruption.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tedum88:
Thanxxx
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Coolsaber57:
Lol, what? What makes you happy and what do you need money for?

On another note:

Anyone else having an issue where SetCPU doesn't pay attention to your minimum frequency?

Edit: to answer my own question, do NOT use governors other than Conservative for the SetCPU profiles. They will get stuck.

I've set up all my profiles and voltage settings and my tab is running like a dream, thank you Boushh!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Coolsaber57:
edited for double post. Can't find delete button :p
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] beestee:
Are the links under the SGSKF method in the OP still good, or are they corrupted? I ask because the name of the kernel zImage under the Heimdall method now has 'GOOD' in the filename and the one under the SGSKF method does not.

EDIT: Tried out the OC zImage from the SGSKF method link and it left me at the samsung screen at boot. Used Heimdall method with the GOOD zImage to flash Kernel and Recovery per your guide and now up and running without a hitch and Voodoo recovery is working as both primary and secondary whereas before it was just secondary because I was only using SGSKF to flash the previous Heimdall zImages. I also did the step 2 just to acquaint myself with the zip flashing process and it worked just fine as well.

I have never heard the voodoo voice though...is this because I converted to ext4 using Koush's bootstrap?

Thanks again for all of the work that you have put into making this all work so well! Looking forward to Bluetooth now :)

EDIT2: Started getting random FCs, so I rebooted to find my wifi not functioning. I rebooted once again and ended up in a bootloop at the carrier screen. Booted into recovery and disabled the voodoo lagfix which took approx 3 mins at the samsung screen accompanied by the voice...which is incredibly cool btw...and then booted fine after it finished. It also seemed a little snappier...? That seemed a little odd to me but it is working for now so I will leave it be.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] The_Chrome_Coyote:
your download links are down... any mirrors for the Odin zImage?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] futuregerald:
how do I uninstall the recovery or install regular stock recovery again?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jeffnucci:
I'd love some working links. Will send beer money for working heimdall zImage links
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kenfly:
I wouldlove if this was fully stable
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] futuregerald:
Does anyone know where I can get a sprint stock recovery image to flash? I'm not sure why I'm having trouble finding it. I also saw some instructions for installing verizon stock recovery but I don't know if that would work on my tab or if there is a similar recovery image for Sprint. Anyone that can show me the way I would greatly appreciate it.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Bobby Buggs:
Yeah we need to hook this guy up for all his work. I donated 25 beers last week
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ray_l:

I would be interested in how you were able to get this done. I just recently got my vz tab. Was able to root the other day with z4, but a little stumped on how to get kernel/roms on. Not a total noob with this as i have been flashing roms on my phone for some time, just seems a little more complicated on the tab..
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kenfly:
I would like a write up on what you did because when i install this, i cannot run it for 5 minutes without freezing/rebooting
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Coolsaber57:
The key is definitely to wipe data and cache, THEN install the kernel.

1. Boot into recovery, choose wipe data and cache, turn it off

2. Boot into Download mode, connect to your computer

3. Start heimdall, flash the zImage to the kernel + recovery slots

4. It will restart (and take a while as it converts your system to ext4 and then builds davlik-cache)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Boushh:
LOL

1) You are more than welcome to use Samsung's stock kernel, I don't care if you run this or not.

2) It is stable for Verizon users, it's probably a PEBCAK error.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] howtodoo?:
So i got a lil bored... i decided to flash the over clock rom to my vzw tab and heres what happened.....

1st off the flash was successful via voodoo cwm, but the first time around even after full data and cache wipe along with dvik wipe and just to play it safe a battery stat wipe i encountered a crap load of force closes. so i did everything again and the second time was a success with no force closes at all. during the process it even flash the kernel. now the problems i had, it wasn't reading my memory card and would not let me mount sd card either???? no clue why, and when i ran the camera i got a msg saying disable usb mass storage before activating camera or something along those lines... it was very smooth running of course no 3g. yayyyyy!! we get a dialer BBOOOOOO!! YOULL GET A MSG "NOT REGISTERED TO NETWORK" when you try to call lmao... browser quick, in and out of menus also quick. i didnt load up the market bc i didnt feel like goin through the set up sorry guys. now the thing i had most trouble with was try to restore my backup... voodoo became very glitchy and i had to reflash back to factory "roto method" then reflash voodoo and this time i was able to get my back up running. i dont wanna loose my 3g i pay for it so i oped to stay with this rom for now.... Hey boush i wanna get into the game of working on stuff like this, making roms compiling kernels and what not, this maybe a dumb question but what sites do you go to to get your info on how to do these things less forum like and more just info stated, if such sites even exist?? PS please pay no mind to my horrible grammar and spelling lol
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] galexandr:
@howtodoo?

Are you saying that we can flash a GSM rom on a CDMI tablet?

I have a Sprint tablet, and i use WIFI tethering from my HTC Touch Pro2, and i'd love to change roms, but i dont know HOW and WHICH ONE will work, i do agree that the current SPRINT CDMI Rom somewhat stinks!!!! its slow!!!

Thank for your help
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] 1musicman:
Setup up ADHOC wifi to acess SDCARD

Here's how you can access your memory card via wifi even when your phone isn't connected to any routers. It is some form of "adhoc" connection.

On your phone, install "File Expert" from market this allows you to access your files via HTTP or FTP

On your PC, you can use Filezilla or any FTP transfer prog. HTTP is also fine.

Turn on wifi tethering on your phone and connect your laptop to it.

Open File Expert and use either FTP or HTTP and follow the config instructions tadah!

This came about when I needed to access my memory card while I was out without a usb cable and bluetooth transferring a large file took waaaay too long

If your phone supports FTP transfer you can also transfer between phones using this method.

I found this in another forum, tried it and is working.

Enjoy!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] howtodoo?:
first this guy josh from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFDGwkLm3z4&feature=feedlik did it watch this video...im not saying you can and im not saying you should. im just saying i got real bored lol so i did. if your comfortable enough with heidmall you can give it a try.. DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK THOU. im not tolo tech savoy and i may not be able to help you dude... maybe just wait for a descriptive video that shows how to on either the vzw tab or sprint tab, or a write up on how to....

i didnt mean to make it sound like i was taking credit for this. sorry about that joush
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] howtodoo?:
Hey man thanks for the info. i might give it a shot, but its alot of work to do for things that still work on boushh's rom. i dont wanna sound like im bit*hing but i want the rom to rom with least work possible. also when trying to restore a backup, i had problems that made me have to reflash to stock. voodoo cwm would restore to the cache point of my nandroid backup then just reboot back to voodoo cwm option screen again. i did once with out wiping, no luck and a few time after wiping still no luck so i had to go through the hole proccess lol. it was annoying.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jaydon34:
I actually sold my tab today. Anyone know how to revert it back to a stock sprint tab. I really want to just have the kernel stock so that the camera works.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jinsoku3g:
Boushh ... I'm at 1 day 10 hours and 45 min since unplugged and my battery is at 46%.

To that..thank u and wow
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Boushh:
THIS thread should have the kernel too. Be sure to get the stock no modem package. once again NO MODEM. It will kill your GPS if you flash the modem. got it? :P

(don't want ya to fubar it right when your selling it is all)

Nice! Also, I just got back to your PM, sorry for the delay, been getting a bunch.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] futuregerald:
out of the blue after being stable for over two weeks I started getting fc issues left and right, couldn't even download anythign from the market or run any app that came with the tab. I had to use the samsung launcher cause launcher pro wouldn't work either. I also tried to do a restore using cwm but after I did that it wouldn't boot. I flashed the stock rom from the Zephyr thread and i was able to get back in but then I couldn't install the official sprint update because when it rebooted to do the install it would not go any further, i suspect this has to do with having CWM installed since I can no longer get to the stock recovery. i tried installing the official update using cwm and that failed as well. Also after i tried installing the update it would no longer boot in to the OS so I've had to flash it back like 4 or 5 times while i tried different things to install the update. now i'm up and running fine without the kernel but cwm is still installed and i have to deal with this annoying update thing popping up constantly cause i can't install it. Anyone that knows anything about this please please please help me out. Also is the verizon stock recovery the same as the Sprint one? or are they different? wondering if I could flash that =\
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Boushh:
Also, guys, I thought I was going to have a chance to update the thread tonight, but I just got invited out and it's their treat (which is the perfect price for me right now)! So, I'm gunna go have some fun and I'll get everything updated in the morning.

But.....

If you want. I've got THIS kernel built and have been testing it for the last two days. It is the overclocked version, install normally via CWM, you know the deal by now. ;)

Let's see, what have I changed in the last couple days.

Lzma compresson on the intiramfs (lowering the file size to just over 6MB, from 7.4) This will increase the speed a bit, but mostly it allows for more room for me to add more BT HID modules (lots of devices require their on module, which is why some devices work and some don't currently) and other features I find down the road

Replaced Samsung's RCU with TinyRCU (ported to the tab by jt1134, many thanks)

Added lowmemorykiller, this should give you a good 240MB free at boot

More BT HID modules to support more devices.

I think that there is another thing or two I did, but I can't remember without lookin at my notes.

Also, If you test this for BT HID please report back to me on the working, or non working status including the information below

PLEASE

device - Manufacturer and Model number would be great.

status - did it pair and work? did it just pair and not work? did it not pair at all? did it not detect at all?

It would be really, really helpful. This is one feature I'm adding for you, the users. I have a pure and utter hatred for the bluetooth protocol and have no BT hardware, at some point it would be cool to have onna those little apple keyboards though.

Also a huge thanks to mike, buggs, and 1techydude (and anyone who grabbed the link offa twitter) for helping me test this the last couple days. I wanted to make sure everything was good with these drastic changes I made.

You need to find the stock sprint kernel. search around here or maybe just in google. I know I've seen links to it, but I don't have them handy unfortunately.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kenfly:
Still no wii remote. sadly :( that's all i was hoping for....

Wii remote- Found over Bluetooth but no pair.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] howtodoo?:
The new kernel definitely is quicker... So far it's running smooth. Nice work man!!! Thank you.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Bobby Buggs:
The only Blue tooth devices I can even see is my HP photo smart C309a printer and yes it will pair. It does not see my Samsung wep200 ear piece or my Motorola flip ear piece, dont know the ## on it.

Very happy with this new Kernel.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] markgamber:
No love here, I'm afraid, between the new kernel and Apple keyboard and mouse.

The mouse will pair but won't connect. The keyboard won't pair. Attempting to pair brings up a message to enter a six digit number on the keyboard and hit enter. When I do so it fails with "Unable to communcation with apple keyboard". Note that if I type any six characters it doesn't fail it for a bad entry or anything, just that it was unable to communicate. This being opposed to the stock system where it would pair but not connect.

The bluetooth is pretty simplistic, I can't think of anything to try. If you know of anything let me know. Otherwise I think I'm going to resign myself to having a crippled tablet and be done with it.

Edit: I tried the keyboard a few more times and, more often than not, it doesn't wait long enough for me to type in the six digits if they're six different numbers. That is, if it's something like "555506" I can pound out those 5s fast enough to get all six numbers in there with the enter key before it errors out. If it's "607385", there's no way. The error appears before I can complete. Being a programmer, I assure you I can type damn fast. ;-) So aside from detecting that it's there, there doesn't appear to be anything else going on between the Tab and keyboard.

Another edit: The Tab and my Kia Sorento don't see each other at all. Not that they did before (god forbid you should try to use the car to make a (gasp) phone call!) and they still don't, FYI.

Oh...and it does pair with my Sony DR-BT22A and DR-BT101 headphones but they've worked since day one.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] lloydcabraham:
Hey Boushh, love your work and appreciate a working CWM on my SprintGT. Don't mind the cdrom thing but would it be possible to look into the non working camera?

Thanks.

Lloyd
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] 92slammer:
has anyone found a fix for the market issues???
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jinsoku3g:
Downloading now, hopefully it will get rid up this calendarupdate fc I've had recently. No biggie :)

EDIT ahh still there..but otherwise easy install. Ill be playing around as I get more comfortable with adb
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Blinkergffg:
Boushh,

Thanks for all the effort you have put into this

I downloaded and flashed your OC kernel. I was able to pair with my BT keyboard but it would not connect. My Tab is Verizon and my keyboard is a ORtek WKB-1500.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jeffnucci:
Is there any difference in running the test kernel posted above at 1Ghz from a normal 1Ghz boushh kernel?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] markgamber:
Sorry if my tone was a tad negative earlier, I was reeeeeally hoping it would work with the Apple keyboard and I've been a bit sour all weekend because of the scenes coming out of Japan. No way does a people who love baseball like that deserve the living hell they're getting right now.

Anyway, one last thing...when I first flashed the last system, I regularly got the "bzzt....bzzt bzzt" of the system killing something but it would never display what that something was. I'm not sure it was actually killing anything, but the buzz was there. Just for fun I put back the stock kernel, did a full system wipe and then tried it again and then the system repeatedly killed the setup app which would then restart, get killed, restart, get killed...etc, until I forced it to shut off. I then started it in download mode, put the stock kernel back and everything came up roses again so THEN I installed the zip file again and while the keyboard/mouse/car still don't work, it's been nice and stable since then.

Finally, per the keyboard, I think I'll just spring for the $80 Samsung keyboard. Samsung wins this time but in the long run see if I buy another of their devices. Thanks for the try, tho, I did appreciate it. :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jeffnucci:
+1 for Japanese baseball. I got my Apple Bluetooth keyboard working with that test kernel btw.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] markgamber:
Really? Did you do anything special or noteworthy anywhere? I'm still trying but no luck.

Edit: By turning on the "Visible" bluetooth I can get the tablet to "pair". If I enter incorrect numbers it actually says I entered incorrect numbers instead of just failure to communicate. Also, the tablet displays "paired" under the keyboard icon but the status light on the keyboard stays blinking which indicates that the keyboard isn't actually being used. But it's a step closer than I had been.

Another edit: Well, sometimes. Nine times out of ten there's no communication and practically speaking it doesn't work.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jeffnucci:
Nope. It paired right up. However I rebooted for an unrelated reason and now it wont reconnect.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kamakazie2:
Hi all! Thank you for creating this rom for VZW users. However i have one problem. I cannot get the radio to turn back on. I tried to restore to the stock vzw rom and it works, however i cannot get the radio to turn on. Any ideas? Is there a VZW radio rom i can try to restore?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] howtodoo?:
did u wipe everything, Data and cache??? after your back to stock vzw rom try wiping everything and booting back up.. what rom did you flash?

also did you make sure 3g is enabled and not disabled? while your tab is on long press power the 3g network indication shortcut is there.. try fliping that on and off a few times.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] futuregerald:
Man I'm such an idiot, didn't realize till now that all I had to do to get stock recovery back was flash the stock zImage that I've had sittin on my computer for the last two months in recovery(i was only flashing it in the kernel). now that I know I can easily get recovery back to stock as well as the rom i'm curious to know what caused all the fc errors i was experiencing, was the data partiton corrupt or something? i've noticed a couple of other people mention similar problems but no resolution found.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] kamakazie2:
My stupid a$$ just realized i used the GSM rom. I am up and running perfectly with everything but no signal. I cant access any wireless settings it locks in airplane mode. my guess is somehow i got the modem.bin for gsm locked in there.

Im trying to flash the modem.bin back but it fails every time. Looks like i need to unlock modem.bin and reload the vzw one.

Such a noob mistake.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] howtodoo?:
crap dude good luck. which GSM rom did you flash??
