As we all notice with the new exciting 4.0.4 release for the SGT-10.1, Face unlock is not available for unlocking the tab!

I have taken the liberty to modify the ICS-04292012-gapps to include Facelock.apk without all the rest of the gapps. So BIG THANKS to the CM team for the zip and the components outside of the facelock.apk. The facelock.apk came from my SGS3 and works perfect on my tab.

Instructions:

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PROBLEMS THAT MIGHT OCCUR FROM FLASHING THIS! BY DOWNLOADING AND INSTALLING, YOU THE USER ABSOLVE ME FROM ANY DAMAGES THAT MIGHT INCUR FROM YOU INSTALLING!!

1: MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP!
2: DID YOU MAKE A BACKUP?
3: ARE YOU SURE YOU MADE A BACKUP!
4: Download the zip http://www.mediafire.com/?pps4d43jmpoyjc4
5: Flash with CWM
6: Reboot
7: Check settings>security>screen lock

This has been tested only on the P7510. Once more people download and report back, I can say if it works with other variants of the 10.1 series.

Confirm working by RavenY2K3 that it works on P7500. He had to clear extra space on the /system partition to have it running.

Really? Not sure why it wouldn't work since the tabs are almost identical. Your on the Italian build right?

Scratch that, I delved a little into the system and it appears the amount of space in the ROM partition wasn't enough, it didn't give any errors on flashing to say there wasn't enough but I moved a few things around manually and reflashed the file.... Working perfectly now, thanks again for your work dude ;)

What's needed is to get someone with a 7500 who flashed with PC Odin to see if they have had the same issue I just had, I did it with the mobile version and those people who did the same have found that the hidden.img didn't flash, so some apps weren't available after flashing.

Good call, I flashed with Mobile ODIN as well for the P7510 but I remove so much bloat I don't even think about space anymore.

This works great on Tasks ICS. I removed a few useless apps with titanium backup and it works great!
