AW: [ROM][P75xx][JB][4.2.2] CyanogenMod 10.1 Nightly Discussions

bad drivers can cause the tab to become unstable. it happens more frequently against the VZW model.

this is exactly why i said, one should not look at youtube HD as a benchmark to how the tab is operating. hitting a menu item and waiting 3 seconds, that's an issue or swiping and waiting for it to do something, that's an issue. looking at youtube hd and it pausing for a second or two, that's pretty much always happened (depending on the content and/or network speed (less so)). usually just micro stutters tho.

Crazy. Another good reason not to use windows...

I accept your explanation, but I guess I will never understand it. Something like this should never happen. Because this means I could just connect the device once to a manipulated PC to make it unusable.

Normally I would totally agree with you. I never care about youtube performance issues. But this time the reason was the high cpu load and not network or content. I've seen the log files. Hopefully this is fixed now.

In that particular instance, one may see it more readily via that specific app, but when the app experience is already sub par to an extent, its hard to make judgments based solely on that.

Not the app's fault by any means, just more work to accomplish to try and keep the legacy tab operating decently (where one day I dream of finishing up and moving on to bigger/greener and more modern pastures, hehe).

i too was facing issue with USB driver all i did was (windows 7 32-bit):
- uninstalled kies & samsung usb driver
- reboot the pc
- installed samsung usb driver from xda thread
- reboot pc
after that so far i did not face issue related to MTP connectivity for SGS2 or GTab P7500.
may be some kies services causing these issues (not sure), give it a try.
note: i am on 18/02/2013 nightly :good::cowboy:

I checked USB debug and mpt then updated to 2/21, YouTube works again

Sorry for this noob question, but how can I activate MTP on CM 10.1 18 febr nightly?

I also have problems when I went from 13 febr nightly to 4.2.2 with youtube and performance.
So I just need to activate USB debug, MTP and reinstall the correct drivers and then go from 18 febr nightly to 21?

Btw Thanks pershoot for the awesome work !

MTP is activated by default. You need to fix your drivers on your PC if it is not working and the tab is going nuts when plugged in.

Use the 21st build.

Latest cm nightly is very smooth with a1 kernel. The last nightly I had tried, about 3 weeks ago was super laggy.
Any chance of working photosphere in the future . in cm , photosphere crashes after aligning and in stock ICS, it crashes after taking 3-4 pics.

Update on my situation:

When I connected my tab to my pc (with the correct drivers, I've always had the correct ones) nothing happend.
Switching MTP on, did't do anything, when I went to another settings panel and came back to MTP, it was switched off again.
So I did a full wipe (cache, factory, dalvik) and reinstalled nighlty 21.

And suddenly everything was ok. I could connect with my pc again, my CPU finally went back to lowest setting (it was constantly 1000 before) and youtube videos in HD play again as the same before ( an occasional stutter instead of constant 2-3 sec stutters).

What I think happend (I am a total noob, so I have no clue, haha). When I was on 13 nightly, my MTP was switched off.
Going to 15 nightly (or 16) ment going from 4.2.1 to 4.2.2 and brought these problems with it. Maybe there were some changes with MTP, because MTP is default "on"?

Anyway, everything works smoothly again and I am a happy puppy. Thanks guys ! :good:

That's my conclusion after reading all the posts as well:

Clean installation of 4.2.2 -> no problems
Updating from 4.2.1 with MTP switched on -> no problems
Updating from 4.2.1 with MTP switched off -> USB is going crazy

Here's some more about the MTP/lag issue.
I reinstalled stock ICS 4.0.4 via Odin. Did a few factory resets.
Then rooted and installed the 2/21 nightly of CM. Set USB debugging on. Checked the MTP box under storage. The MTP setting did not stick. Used the "top" command in a terminal to see that "/init" was using %50 of the processing throughout--one full processor.
I used CWM recovery to factory rest and install the 2/13 nightly of CM. Confirmed I could set MTP. Saw "/init" was using near %0 processing. Made sure I had MTP set, then did an update (no factory rest) to CM 2/21. Confirmed that MTP was still set. Confirmed that "/init" was near %0 processing.
My tab now feels much more peppy now.
I told my kids to not dare turn MTP off ("Dad, you are so weird.") so I don't know if it would stick or not.
Hope this helps.

Hello, for quite a while now i always use the info and then cmupdate menu to update to the new versions of nightlys. I see here that most of you always reflash from the pc, is there a special reason for that and is the way i do it wrong? I do not see any issues with my way of doing the update

No problem with using the OTA update method (from settings menu). It's what I use and had presumed most other people use too.

There may be occasions when a full wipe and re-flash is advised, such as when the latest recommended gapps was added to the OP post, but if you keep half an eye out on this thread you shouldn't run into any major problems.

Thanks. This is exactly what I was going to do to reproduce the issue.

    At pershoots request, here is the official nightly discussion thread. I will be updating this with information that I find and users posts that are helpful. REMEMBER: THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS SO ALWAYS READ THE THREE POST FOR UPDATED INFORMATION

    CyanogenMod 10.1 is a free, community built distribution of Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean) which greatly extends the capabilities of your tablet.
    New CM Wiki page! http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/index.php?title=Main_Page
    New CM Documention! http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/index.php?title=Documentation

    photo.jpg


    Usual CM disclaimers:
    Code:
    #include 
    /*
     * Your warranty is now void.
     *
     * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
     * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
     * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
     * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
     * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
     */

    Known Issues (copied from droidbasement):
    -A random flicker (it’s faint and fast) can be observed occasionally/infrequently. If this becomes a nuisance to you, you can try to alleviate this by selecting ‘Disable HW overlays’ in Developer Settings. This does not survive a reboot (must be selected on every boot) and impacts swiping motion (it slows it down) in Trebuchet (the Launcher).
    -P4*: A 720P recording, when played back, will have artifacts in the upper section of the image. Also when launching the recorded video for the first time, you will encounter a bit of a delay before it launches.
    -P4*:If you use the standard GAPPS (from goo), the keyboard will close if typed on for 2 or 3 letters quickly in succession, if you use Google Search, Messaging and/or Gtalk (there could be more). This is a GAPPS library issue. Install a third party keyboard (Swiftkey 3 works ok) and switch to it. This does not affect Browser, System, etc (stock KB works fine there). The GAPPS from wingray don’t appear to exhibit this behavior from brief feedback (make sure your system is cleaned out using the latest recovery (format system), prior to installing the rom and gapps if you had the set from goo installed prior (it has also been reported that data needed to be wiped as well to rid of the residuals)): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=35825009&postcount=3553

    Install Instructions: IMPORTANT TO SEE READ ME IN POST #2 It will save you a lot of headaches when upgrading or updating your Tablet.

    1) Install the latest CWM (see 1st post for more info)

    2) Install ICS bootloaders (1st post) *People who flashed an ICS custom ROM coming from HoneyComb (3.1) do not have the correct bootloaders.

    3) Boot into CWM and flash CM10.1 (Please see READ ME in post #2 for more information)

    4) Flash gapps-jb-20130120-P75xx.zip (see 1st post for download)

    5) Reboot

    pershoot has stated before: "best to wipe as some experience lag with multi user." and "if you get any latency/ bizarro behavior, wipe"

    F.A.Q

    Want Adobe Flash on your Jellybean Tab? (update 05/21/13) New version is (11.1.115.58)
    Check out the latest download here: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html Scroll to Flash Player for Android 4.0 archives and download most current (11.1.115.58). *Note: Flash is not supported in Jelly Bean, no support given in this thread as well.

    Need Developer options and Performance tabs?
    Go to settings>About tablet and start tapping Build number until it says your a Dev.

    I am getting sudden reboots or freezes?
    Not all tablets are created equal, if you are experiencing sudden reboots after Overclocking, reset your options back to default.

    I am still rebooting or freezing? :(
    Do a full wipe and DO NOT install anything. If the tablet is not rebooting or freezing, install your apps one at a time to isolate the cause. If you are using Titanium Backup, DO NOT RESTORE DATA FOR SYSTEM APPS.

    I get Force Closes (FC) when I launch ____ app?
    Try clearing data for the application by going Settings>Apps and locate the app and select Clear Data.

    How can I increase Launcher performance?
    Enable wallpaper hack (Settings> Launcher>Homescreen) and select Wallpaper quick render to boost home UI response (when using a static wallpaper).

    Once I am on CM10.1, do I need to continue getting my updates at get.cm?
    No, you can update future nightly builds by going to Settings>About tablet>CyanogenMod updates. Once there, change Update types to "New Versions (incl. Nightlies)" *NOTE: Pay attention to the file name, you might occasionally see CM 9 or 10 in the list, DO NOT FLASH!

    Can I enable Voice Calling on my tablet?
    At this time, the framework has the hook enabled to allow for users to work on the feature. IT IS 100% UNSUPPORTED at this time because it requires you to flash modems which is a deviation from the recommended setup.

    I flashed ___ from another___ thread, now ___ this stopped working?
    Wipe data and flash CM 10.1 from get.cm, does this issue still happen? If so, post logcat... if not, seek support from the thread you flashed the file from.

    I HATE the new layout with the navigation keys in the middle, can I move it?
    At this time, the nav keys in the middle is the design. Who knows, CM Team might change this in future builds.

    OH NO! Where did my previous CWM backup go?
    4.2. changed the file structure on how internal storage is viewed. Data on the internal/fake sdcard will go to 0/ (i.e. /sdcard/0/; /data/media/0/) (both are the same thing).
    Since the internal storage is emulated, it is setup now (using file explorer like ES) /mnt/shell/emulated then you will see /0/; /legacy/; /obb/; and /clockworkmod/. Copy clockwordmod folder to your PC and if you need to, flash back to old ROM with old CWM and then move the backup back to /sdcard and then restore.
    Using the latest recovery, to find /sdcard while in recovery, you will need to adb to /data/media/. *Note: Make sure to have a copy on your PC, I ran out of space before restoring since it is all in the /data.

    Hey! Did you see the easter eggs!!
    So not only is there an easter egg when you press the Android version and long press on the jellybean, but if you hit CyanogenMod version, CM planted one too. But did you know that by doing the easter egg and long pressing on the jellybean, you unlock another one! Go to Daydreams under Display in settings and you will see BeanFlinger!

    My sound is really low or really high when I am using headphones!
    If you are having really low or high volumes while listening with headphones, I recommend Voodoo Sound from Supercurio in the Play Store (Link). This allows you to take control of your volume and change it to your preferences.

    I see cm-10.1-xxxxxxxxx-UNOFFICIAL-p4xxxx.zip on Droidbasement, what's the difference between droidbasement builds and nightlies?
    The UNOFFICIAL builds on droidbasement are experimental builds compiled by pershoot for testing. It is recommended to flash the nightly builds unless specifically asked to test an unofficial build.

    READ ME:

    #If using 4.2.2 and want to roll back to 4.2.1 (last build is Feb 13th), you will need to do a full wipe to move backwards or you will bootloop. (update 02/19/13)

    #PSA from CyanogenMod team: https://plus.google.com/+CyanogenMod/posts/M2pVM7Y6MTq (update 02/19/13)
    ADB Whitelist

    As of the Android 4.2.2 update, when you connect your phone to a computer, you are presented with your computer's RSA key fingerprint to open the adb connection. You also have the ability to permanently trust the computer, so you don't have to repeat this step upon every re-connect.

    In order for this to work, you must be on the latest SDK which will grant you an updated 'adb' binary.

    We will not be introducing any functionality to sidestep this default security, so if you don't update, you will lose the ability to access the device using adb.


    # CM 10.1 is based on Android 4.2.1. Any and all proprietary applications that you have installed outside of CM should be updated to their 4.2.1 counterparts. Do not use the 4.1 versions of proprietary applications, else you will experience difficulties.

    # Do not use the CyanogenMod Updater to go from 10.0 to 10.1. While you will have a functional rom, due to the 1st bullet point, you will be left without your proprietary applications and their data. We highly suggest performing the initial install manually via recovery (flashing CM and your addons). Once you are on 10.1, you can use the CM Updater as per normal.

    # You do not need to wipe when updating to 10.1 if coming from an earlier CM version. However, as we mentioned in the weekend's PSA, users updating (instead of wiping) will experience a conflict in the application data for the Clock app. You are advised to clear this apps data on first boot of 10.1.

    # Another item to note is that the support for the 10.0 feature that allowed for an expanded number of targets on the pattern lockscreen is not in 10.1. If you use this lockscreen, disable it before updating from 10.0.

    # Finally, we always advise that you create a backup before any update. Do note, however, that due to Android 4.2 changes to support multi-user mode, your backups will automatically be transferred to /sdcard/0/[backup folder]. Remember this when attempting to restore 10.0. Credit to post from CyanogenMOD team (G+ https://plus.google.com/+CyanogenMod/posts/9X561GFMxL5)

    Coming from Samsung ICS ROM (custom or not) requires a FULL WIPE (Wipe Data, Cache, and Dalvik Cache) If you do not WIPE you will get a bootloop.

    From droidbasement:
    GT-P7500 (p4), GT-P7510 (p4wifi), SCH-I905 (p4vzw) and SGH-T859 (p4tmo)
    -For P4VZW: You must be on stock ICS (and it’s modem) before flashing to this build, for LTE functionality
    -For P4WIFI UK: You must be on the US ICS bootloader (odin .tar.md5 inside the .zip in the folder), otherwise you may incur a rolling screen
    -For P4: You must be on the UK ICS bootloader (odin .tar.md5 from AUS inside the folder), otherwise you may incur a rolling screen.
    -For P4*: You must be on the ICS modem for best results.

    BEFORE REPORTING ANY BUGS, PLEASE DO A FULL WIPE AND FLASH AGAIN TO VERIFY THE BUG! ALSO, NOTHING WILL GET FIXED WITHOUT A LOGCAT (we cannot debug xda posts, need a logcat)

    Getting a logcat:

    1) Make sure ADB is installed (http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html)

    2) Open Command Prompt

    3) adb logcat -d > logcat.txt

    4) Locate the logcat and upload to xda

    all, im working on bringing in a new wifi driver which should solve numerous issues and add some more functionality.

    just need to solve one last issue with it (speed is capped when using it on this device).

    once that is sorted (if can be done in a timely manner), then ill put out tests for all devices to ensure it works well in various scenarios.

    sorry all, i've been hella busy at work and also been feeling under the weather as of late.

    will get back to this when i can (have some more things i wanted to do).
