I am having the same issue. I am running a sprint tab stock, rooted an with khasmek kernel. i am about to try the sensor file.:confused:
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Metalsteel:
Just go up a few posts n do exactly what boushh said its simple fix
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mkcoastie:
no luck im afraid. preplaced the file and still no rotation inn apps or home screen. ill keep tweaking things and see what I can figgure out. thanks though, love the speed with the overclock!:o
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] guido28:
Looks like it also has to do with the file conversion to ext4...rebooted with stock rom and had rotation kept stock rom and when I flashed voodoo5 and it did the file conversion...i lost it.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] galexandr:
Greetings,

Forgive my stupid question, but im lost:

Im running stock rom on my GT, not a big problem, rooted with z4Root, but every now and again the browser or any app in general would be lagging and unresponsive. . .

I have been reading and want someone to confirm, could i just 'Overclock' my Sprint GT with Root and stock rom?

I dont care too much to re-flash, but it would certainly be nice to give boost in mhz power,

Thank you all for you input.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] guido28:
Yes and no. You can run stock rom and raise speed BUT it wilk take a flashing of the kernel. Search forum for Voodoo Plus 5...the 2 programs you will need from Market are SGS Kernel Flasher and Verizon Bootstrapper. You will increase from 1 ghz to 1.4 If you are not comfortable raising it that high...download SetCPU from Market and adjust accordingly.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] armdavid2:
Didnt read all 50 some pages but on sprint tab, my logitech bt mouse works great
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] VDub2174:
Hypothetical question.

If someone was using this method and went with Option B. Said person's tab is now stuck at the Samsung loading screen after doing step 1. What would they do to fix it?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Blinkergffg:
Hey Boushh,

Any idea if you will be able to take the needed drivers from Verizon’s update and add them to your kernel to make the Bluetooth keyboard work. Mine works on my wife’s stock tab after she received the update. I love your kernel and ROM and appreciate all the hard work you have done.

Thanks again :D,
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] teezle:
Exact same thing I encountered. I tried this three times to verify. Keeping stock kernel until a fix is released. EDIT: Also tried sensor file with no luck.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] armdavid2:
download the ea24 flasher and use odin, or unzip/tar with 7zip and flash all the files with heimdale. then try again!

......did you install cwm first? without it, it wont work.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] armdavid2:
I had the same sensor issue, sprint tab btw. I did however just downloaded a free rootexplorer, replaced the file, rebooted and it worked just fine. the file after replacing should be dated feb 18th or those wherabouts.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] RichAP:
Did you ever get the camera to work on your Sprint Tab?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Boushh:
The ROMs are dumped directly from my tab and I run it for several days before I release them if you're insinuating that I don't test them.

You have to follow the instructions.

Guess what? This is the kernel thread and you already posted that in the ROM thread.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nzaw4:
Sorry Boush, did not mean insinuate anything.

When i asked if you flashed Your ROM, what i ment was, in order to fix the no wifi did you flash your ROM version to fix it?

Which was a stupid question i know, but still wanted to ask.

And sorry for posting in both threads, i thought they were relevant, since it was a combination of both ROM and kernels that i have had some what some success with my sprint tab, just wanted to relay the info, and also let others know.

Sorry for any inconvenience this has caused . I only want to help out my fellow XDA'ers
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Boushh:
No harm no foul, please just refrain from it in the future if you can help it. :D

I read every post and will update the main post of either/both threads if something reliant comes up in any of the posts so you know as well.

Yes, I flashed my own ROM to fix the WiFi issue I had and it fixed it.

Also, I'm not trying to be thread police or anything in here, I just want to kind of guide the thread back on track if it starts going too far off (my visioned) course. :)

Another AWSOME super duper V2 Voodoo addon!!

Rating 10 / 10 !! Bling Bling!!

(some people might be confuse "Wipe Cache" = Wipe Cache from Rom Recovery boot!!)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] idumych:
Brilliant work Koush! Flashed this on my Sprint tab with the SGS Rom Flasher and it's working very well. Got a 1700 in Quadrant :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mmathai77:
does the sprint tabs, Orientation work with this? When i tried it, my orientation would not change. Stuck at portrait.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Coolsaber57:
Anyone got a link with a good explanation?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Coolsaber57:
Crap, my tab rebooted after about a day or so and now won't boot past the Samsung logo.

It tried re-flashing the kernel, no dice. Tried reflashing Koush's kernel, no dice, tried flashing stock kernel, nothing. I tried to flash stock firmware, but it will not boot past the Samsung screen.

I'm assuming that I need to repartition the device, then load the backup?

Boushh, do you have any advice for me? I searched for a PIT file, but couldn't find one. Any tricks that I'm missing?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jaydon34:
I'm a little bit of a newb how do you get ext4 before flashing?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] futuregerald:
I wonder if one can use the SGS kernel flasher to flash this without running EXT4 or if this requires EXT 4. I feel silly here cause I simply don't understand the benefit of converting to EXT4 since it seems more like a hastle than anything else at this point; however I would love to try this kernel out to get better performance out of my Sprint tab.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alex2792:
Awesome kernel,much smoother than stock and no need to download various lag fixes is a plus.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alex2792:
The easiest way is to flash clockwork recovery. Download it on the market,make sure to format the sdcard and factory reset your tab before installing it to avoid bricking.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] buhlerbuhler:
I flashed this on my rooted stock OCLF2.2 sprint tab with heimdall, it converted sucessfully, but now stuck at samsung, I think because i dont know how to clear the cache, cant seem to boot into recovery. what did I miss. Thanks for any input

Okay now I'm in clockwork recovery
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] futuregerald:
What did you do to fix the problem? which instructions did you follow? thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] futuregerald:
I'm attempting to flash this kernel but it said not enough space in system partition, still waiting for it to boot up but it's been on the samsung logo for a couple minutes now so i'm not sure if it's even going to boot =\

used heimdall to restore my backups and now the screen's just black, can't boot up or even get samsung logo or go in to download mode...bricked? *sigh* I don't even know what I did wrong; feeling real n00b right now.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Boushh:
If you do a factory reset after you flash this kernel it by booting into recovery then going to the advanced menu and reboot recovery (followed by a factory reset). It will clear the dalvik cache. Or you can clear it through adb.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Mandelbrot.Benoit:
I had this kernal loaded for several days and loved the speed. I began to have market problems. Apps wouldn't download or update. Cleared market cache and data. Cycled device on/off. Finally wiped through CWM and dalvik. Market problem went away but in the about section it no longer shows the bboush@portahobbix kernal. Its back to the koush kernal. Is this possible? I did no restore.

Re-flashed your kernal and was error free for several days, and then the market issue showed up again. Wiped again and it went away, going to try again.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] futuregerald:
well my tab is on it's way to samsung now...bricked =\ I should have just installed CWM, didn't do it cause I didn't wanna do a full wipe but I learned my lesson. CWM gonna be installed on the new tab as soon as I get it.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Boushh:
Simple answer, yes. Koush's recovery still hangs out in the background, I like having it there to assist with backups/restores, since the version of CWM on my kernel is even more messed up atm (I really hope to fix it by the end of the week). Once my recovery is at least up to the same functionality of koush's I will write out a new method of flashing this kernel in which it will overwrite Koush's recovery so this glitch doesn't happen again.

Oh man, I'm so sorry, I was just about to write you out another PM too. :(

Worst part is, I bet you could have recovered it without sending it all the way to samsung.

Just do a titanium backup next time so you have no fear of doing a full wipe. :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] futuregerald:
Yea, i wasn't thinking, i felt like such an idiot after it all happened, I use titanium on my Nexus One too so it was a real face-palm moment.

is it safe to flash a boot.bin using Heimdall that I got from one of my own backups? I'm still not fully sure what bricked my device. The screen just went black after it finished restoring(this was my first time attempting a restore after backing up with rotobackup). Then it wouldn't boot up anymore, wouldn't even get the samsung logo or anything. I just want to know so I can avoid this happening again when I get my tab back.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
Using the SGS Kernel Flasher to start the process... anyone know how long the reboot process takes? I'm about 2 minutes in, and by all accounts, I hear it's supposed to take between 5 and 20 minutes. Is this accurate? Thanks guys! :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
Ok, starting to worry now. I'm still on the Samsung splash screen, so something obviously went wrong. Backups were done, instructions read, and SGS Kernel Flasher used, and no dice. I can't boot into recovery either... how should I proceed, so I can attempt to get this working?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] emieczko:
I had the same issue with SGS Kernel Flasher. That was several generations of kernal & ROM ago, but I still see a lot of folks posting help requests after trying it...

Heimdall did the trick for me. You may or may not have to flash back to stock first to get it to work.

If you flash via Heimdall, and still get stuck at the Samsung screen, try again to boot into recovery. If that works, wipe cache and data and reboot. If not, fire up another post here.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
Will do, I'll reflash via Heimdall first, and report back. Thanks for the quick reply.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
Looks like a no go with Heimdall either... The flash was successful, but still can't get past the Samsung splash screen, and can't get into recovery. Any ideas what the next step should be? :confused:
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] emieczko:
Did you use the Verizon Bootstrap tool?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
No I didn't, but I seemed to have fixed the boot issue. I assumed that there had to be a matching zImage file in the kernel zip in Part 2 of the OP, and there was. I flashed that, and the Tab boots, and I can get into Voodoo CwM recovery. I applied the full zip from my sd, and it took, just fine. Now my problem seems to be that NONE of the non-Samsung apps are in the app drawer. They are visible under "Manage applications", but I can't do anything with them at all. Is there a work-around for this?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jsc619:
has anyone figured out how to get the market back after flashing this? I have the sprint tab

Never mind I got it! I downloaded the newest version and it installed then after a reset everything is working fine.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] coheirnt:
I also had this problem. While running boushs aospv2 rom. Then soft bricked and had to reflash stock. And reflashed v5 kernel and no problems? Are you running the aosp rom?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
All problems were solved with a second wipe... kinda weird, but whatever. I have to say that this kernel is epic! Right off the bat it's improving performance on all levels. Just ran Quadrant Standard for the first time, and got a 2196 with absolutely no tweaking, and all my apps (about 84) restored. Boushh, fantastic work man, thank you! I really look forward to giving the KLean ROM a go as well. Thanks for opening the door to my Tab's potential... I couldn't be happier! Donation will be forthcoming! :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] teezle:
anyone ever fix the rotation problem?

For sh!ts and giggles I tried it again and no rotation. The sensor file and wipe of cache and dalvik didn't do anything. Any other fix?

Also, if there is no fix, how to I go back to regular kernel again? Do I have to do a complete wipe and retore with heimball? I hope not!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
Which Tab are you running? And I know this is super obvious, but you checked to make sure you hadn't locked the rotation in the pull-down menu right? I ask because I hit it by accident a while back, and almost lost my mind trying to fix it, until I slowed down and took a look at it...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] teezle:
Thanks for the reply. Yes I made sure to check the setting. I am running a VZ Tab. I also went to another thread about copying another file to system. But that didn't fix it either. I have slight slowdowns on flash items and believe an overclock would definitely help. Any other way to run overclocked on stock?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
I really don't think so... my VZW Tab was running at 800mHz, stock, and I took it to 1000 with Set CPU. That was my setup until yesterday, when I flashed the kernel. Btw, which method did you use? I had to pull the zImage from the actual kernel zip (the other zImage files wouldn't work), and then flash the zip in recovery. Also, which home relacemant are you using? If you're still on Touchwiz, that may be the problem. Personally, I'd suggest exhausting a couple more options before flashing back to stock. :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mzimand:
Everytime I flash the V5 Kernel with voodoo my rotation breaks. This only occurs when I am on the EC02 Update. It actually happens on any kernel that is ext4. I even tried Koush's Bootstrapper and each time it breaks the auto rotation. I have tried everywhere I can think of and been working on this since yesterday.

Right now I am on the stock rooted EC02 and rotation works great. There has to be a fix for this.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
I'd PM Boushh, and ask him to troubleshoot with you, because that's a really odd issue. I couldn't even get the thing flashed on my Vzw tab until I extracted the zImage from the actual kernel zip file (the posted zImage file didn't work). After that, it was pretty clear sailing, but I never had an issue with my autorotation. Could it be ROM related? Have you tried Boushh's/KhasMek's Klean ROM? If so, I have to reiterate my previous suggestion... try contacting Boushh for help... :/
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] guido28:
Read through this entire thread...there is a file you need to place / replace in the Tab using root explorer and you will have rotation back. If you look through this thread I had the same problem and it remidied the issue.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mzimand:
I actually was able to get auto rotation to work on boush aosp v2 rom and on the old firmware. It is just the new ec02 that it is not working on.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] -nrm:
Anything new regarding wiimote support in V5?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] teezle:
BTW, after more testing, this kernel works with Klean rom.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
Glad I mentioned it before you went ahead and did a factory reset! Did you flash it through CwM? I'm in the process of doing it now.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] teezle:
I made a post on the Klean rom thread. I don't like it. Back to stock .
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Coolsaber57:
Hey Boushh, I just updated my stock VZW tab (converted to ext4 using your v5 kernel) to Ec02 and my auto rotation is broken.

I replaced the sensor file that was mentioned earlier in thia thread, but it is still broken.

I've already tried wiping cache, but no dice.

I'm pretty sure that the problem is only between the ec02 update and your kernel.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
Try the K-lean rom... it seems to play better with the kernel, and autorotation. It's from Boushh as well, so it should be easy to find...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Coolsaber57:
I could, but right now i'd like to stay on my stock ROM. It was working fine before, but something in EC02 doesn't like his kernel, which is odd because it's built from the EC02 source :confused:
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
Fair enough. The kernel on its own makes a massive difference; the ROM adds some nice additional performance and tweaks, but you can certainly live without it. :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mzimand:
I have run into this same issue and have tried other ext4 kernels and they also break the auto rotation.

What sensor file are you referring to? I have tried everything else. I would like to give it a shot.

I ended up reverting back to DJ11 because I get great performance with Boush's v5 kernel. I have the highest marks on Linpack int he world(lol) and my Quadrant scores are between 2200-2700. I did not notice any difference in performance with EC02 and I cannot live without auto rotation

I forgot to mention that I was able to get EC02 to work on Boush's V2 AOSP ROM with auto rotation.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] guido28:
Unzip and place /replace this file using root explorer or es file explorer w/root privileges in system/lib/hw thats in the main memory not sd card and all should be peachy...worked for me had same problem now fine.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] guido28:
Look down below posted your fix.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] neo4uo:
I reverted back to DJ11 also because my auto rotation was broke. I do not see a hw folder in root explorer. I can go to /system/bin/ but no /hw?

EDIT:

I think you meant /system/lib/hw/

-Peace

\oo/
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] guido28:
Lmao...yes lib...my bad. I was trying to go by memory. Thanks for the correction.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mzimand:
This worked. Thanks you so much, I spent hours trying to get the auto rotation to work with EC02. This fixed it right away. I did end up starting from the beginning of the update process by reverting back to completely stock DJ11 and then following the guide on gizmoninja

Note: be sure to change permissions to match the file this is replacing
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Coolsaber57:
Is that 755? Perhaps that's my problem.

Also, do you have a VZW or Sprint Tab?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mzimand:
I have a Verizon Tab. Yes it is 755. I always look at the permission of the file I am replacing and go with that. But I do know that the way the permissions were set in the posted file needed to be changed.

Also I did start the whole update process over becasue when I tried to just post the file it did not work(actually made it so my Tab would not reboot)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] teezle:
hmmm, I think that may have been a problem for me to. Will try the permissions for the file when I get home. Will report back.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] darklrd:
works great

Great work it was simple to get up and running with the stock sprint rom. and everything work with the exception of the cams also it had a little trouble doing the ext4 conversion. all i had to do was disable it and the re enable it and it did the conversion no issues. i hope we can get a fix for the the cam issue but other wise works great. And a big thanks to all who help me in to the right direction.

*update*

After the update from v4 to v5 my cam has started working and it did not on v4 or bauxite kernel. Also as a side note on bauxite I had to apply the sensor fix listed on that thred. I however did not have an issue on v4 or v5. It as well fixed my issue with bluetooth stereo sound. Love the kernel and a big thanks once more.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] neo4uo:
I ended up wiping and going back from stock to voodoo ec02 and used your file, voila it's fixed!!! Thanks for the file :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Coolsaber57:
Hmm, still no dice. I guess i'll try to wipe cache, then data, then start the whole thing over. Ugh.

Edit: Success! I'm an idiot though, I wasn't replacing the correct file. I was using a file posted earlier in the thread by Boushh.

Thanks guido!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] teezle:
I was doing the exact same thing. I copied over Guido28's file but did change the permissions to what the old file was. Rebooted and it is working!

Seems to be o.k. with my 18 hours of testing :)

Thanks Boushh and Guido28!!

Quick question: Does Voltage Control app always have to be running or can I kill it with my task killer?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] guido28:
If you set it up as a boot setting you can kill it.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Coolsaber57:
Hey Boushh, I believe that you have the wrong file here. It's the sensors file that needs to be replaced for EC02 users.

Thanks for all your hard work!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] beno*:
Sweet! Worked perfectly without having to reflash anything! Just copied the file to the system/lib/hw folder, made sure the permissions were identical to the old one, rebooted, and bingo! Thanks a million!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ray_l:
EC02 Update Won't Stick

I tried several times to apply the update but it won't seem to complete. I am running v5 of the kernel on a vz tab. I was ready to apply update then fix sensors with file fix.

Any ideas? Anyone else encountering this issue?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] guido28:
If you are already running 5, stock rom update will NEVER complete. You will always get the droid with the exclamation mark.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ray_l:
So, I need to revert to stock kernel to perform update? I still have stock rom.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] guido28:
Thats the way I had to do it...i waited until I got the push from Sprint then flashed kernel.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jjhiza:
Honestly, I was having issues witu the Verizon OTA before I ever flashed this. I was rooted, but that's it... now I obviously can't get the update, but I still get the notification about 5 times a day... I don't think it's necessarily an issue with the kernel or the rom; for me, it seems to simply be a root issue. It wouldn't even install when I reverted to stock... oh well.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] ray_l:
well, now I'm stuck at samsung screen. I tried to flash original kernel backup i had via SGS FLasher and the device won't boot. A VZ tab that was running v5 kernel. Trying to revert to stock so i could apply update then reflash. Can't get into recovery with power+volume up either.

Thoughts??
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mzimand:
You will need to use Heimdall to get back to stock. Here are detailed instruction to follow. These also have how to install the update. I was exactly where you were and these fixed everything.
