sorry, it didn't work on my p4 - black screen upon boot and nothing else happening. it also changed my default storage to /sdcard/android/ so I couldn't access my backups and I had to restock with Odin... I changed the update script and removed the asset checking for device model, although I was using the latest CWM... I don't think this was related to the ROM's problem though...

using CWM install this:
cm-10.1-20130310-UNOFFICIAL-p4.zip (53.9 MB)

then install this:
quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip (481 MB)

and finally this (thanx to guys from Galaxy Note thread):
afterflash-p4.zip (154 KB)

EDIT: to get wifi working just create /data/local/userinit.sh containing
#!/system/bin/sh
insmod /system/lib/modules/dhd.ko firmware_path=/system/etc/wifi/bcm4330_apsta.bin nvram_path=/system/etc/wifi/nvram_net.txt

then chmod 755 userinit.sh and reboot. the only problem is i can't enter the wifi password because the keyboard keeps closing when i press some characters.

I think there is a problem in the wpa_suppllicant.conf setting file. If I set up the file I can enter alphanumeric characters but the switch to numbers close the keyboard.

I put the following in the ubuntu_chroot /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf file:

Create wpa_supplicant.conf:

update_config=1
ctrl_interface=wlan0
driver_param=use_p2p_group_interface=1
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1
p2p_listen_reg_class=81
p2p_listen_channel=1
p2p_oper_reg_class=81
p2p_oper_channel=1

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1

Could someone test this with a alphanumeric passcode? I haven't access to the ap in the moment to switch the passkey.
Enter the network credentials there doesn't work in the available environment.

Which applications are working?
I can only start the notepad and messaging (blue icon)

Did you change the stuff in the porting guide? Changing the defconfig should let you use browser

    Hopefully this gets ported to tab 10.1... can't see it happening though.

    Looks pretty easy. I will do it today. Finally something interesting besides cm for tablets. Most ROMs are either cm clones or simply not tablet friendly, which is why I haven't worked on much here.

    Do you own the 3g tab? If that is the case, then,assuming that ubuntu is based on cm, 3g will be working, isn't that right?

    Sent from my amazing 10.1 galaxy tab :)

    I have the WiFi, but 3g won't work since ubuntu does not support 3g data yet.

    Say, suppose we have an installable build. Will the flashing erase the whole sdcard, or just the system partitions (/system, /data etc)? I mean we have to bacup docs, movies, music and so on?

    No, it will not. It will flash just like any other ROM. Right now, it is CM10.1 and ubuntu in a chroot shell. It will erase system. Data, you will have to erase (just like you do on most other ROMs). My PC is back. Thanks for the help. Will work on Ubuntu again today.
