One question can I use voltage control with this rom? VC does not detect the volts for 1,2 and 1,4.

There's a patched version in the first post that'll detect all the voltages. It might be buried in the guides now though

EDIT:

Ye, buried in those fecking guides: http://www.mediafire.com/?m2ybg2v4oqdtknn
Use that version, it'll do everything you need it to

It is me again and yet again i got some questions in my backpack ;-) I have been using this rom for quite some time now and must say I really like it ;-)

Still i have two manners that i am a bit confused about since I bought a used tab from a reseller.

First how long would a battery in general last lets say with moderate usage?

Now comes the weird part and i am not sure if it is rom/kernel or hardware related.

The first 60 % of battery go down pretty quick for my feeling even though i uv'ed -200mv and only use max 800 mhz. No app is misbehaving nor syncing whatever.

But what really gives me a headache is the following. When the battery is below around 40% it drains very slow. If i do a reboot then I suddendly start with like 30% less.

Example: I got 35% left and work like 10 minutes on the tab I lose 1% (usually more above 40%) than I reboot the tab and have like 12% left instead of what i had before.

I used battery calibrating app, charge while tab is off and so on. I've been reproducing that stuff for the last 2 days.

Is this a known issue? I have no comparision to stock because I jumped to custom the minute i held the tab in my hand.

I need to know because I can still give the tab back if something might be broken.

Thanks for any response

Mine does it a bit too. Turn the Tab off, charge it to full then boot to recovery (vol. up and power) the go to Advanced --> wipe battery stats. Then in recovery select "Power off" and let it charge to 100% again (leave the Tab plugged in through all of this). Once charged power it up and go through a few charge cycles (use it lots to kill the battery, the recharge to 100% and to it again). You'll probably see some weird drops on the first cycle, and after that it should stabilise.

Hope this helps

Dude exactly the same on my tab! Battery issue is strange it definitively seems an android quirk as i have seen this on other tabs. I charged to 100%, wiped stats in cwm and seems to have resolved itself.

So far sticking on this o.c 1.6 + koudaxi kernel, runs nice but using the browser does drain battery a bit too much. I think gingerbread browsing is better so should squeeze more from battery.

However, oc gold has issue of overheating, lags so waiting on the new release. Tried cm7 but the keyboard was squashed for some reason.

Up coming rom releases look promising.

GPS is still not working for me, just saw the 4 key lights off mod for gingerbread so think i might ditch this rom for that one, can anyone confirm that the gingerbread overcome rom GPS works perfectly? or is it just the same, going back to stock otherwise

The guide has info on making the GPS work. Sorry to make you download and read it, but I can't remember it well enough to explain it to you. I believe it's in the tips and tricks section

Hi alterbridge,

If noting go wrong, I am expecting to receive my SGT as a gift in few weeks time, so I started to research on SGT ROM flashing and I am glad to find this thread. The installation guilde (The Installation Guide (Veersion 1.6.4) is very detail, clear and helpful to new comer like me. However, I appreicate your help to clear some confusion.

1) The table in item3 shown the "Re-Partition" is uncheck and was checked in item4. Between the two items there is no mentioned to check the Re-Partition. So, should the Re-Partition be checked?

2) How about CSC? I saw some other rom mentioned the need to install the JMx-Hidden.tar...Actually I am still not clear what is CSC mean and for what...

Thanks.

When you put in a .pit file, it automatically checks the "repartition" check box. it should be checked with you use a .pit file.

Just use the files that's listed in the guide, there's no need for the hidden.tar files, for Overcome ROMs. Not sure about the other ROMs, but if you're using ODIN, those steps and files in the guide are the ones required to get you onto Overcome.

Hi thepittbull,

Thanks for the quick reply. I think I am now ready to flash when I received my SGT.

Sorry, nevermind, messed up

Sorry for the question (if already asked), i'm new on the Galaxy Tab world...
What's the best software to control speed (with overclocked kernel)

SetCPU
Antutu
PimpMyCPU

?

Thx !

 

[pmstancu]

Thanks for the great work. Looks and works smooth except one thing for me. The wifi connection suffers as it blocks for couple of seconds then back again.
Internet through 3G/H no problem, works just fine.

 

[dmase05]

Quick question. I've been reading the posts and see reguarding the gsm comments stating "if your tab doesn't have a sim card it won't work".

Is it meant that if you literally dont have a sim card or are they stating that having a sim card indicates that it's a gsm tab and the gsm version of the rom will work?

I'm asking because I won my tab at a conference and it's an european version (gprs network which I believe is basically gsm right) and I didn't get a sim card with it. I only use my tab wifi only. Can I root and flash the rom without a sim card in the slot?

Thanks!

It will still work.

You just get an indicator up top, saying a SIM isnt installed,
And you get a message on most lockscreens saying no SIM detected.

Or, there are certain chinese sites who have extreme deals like FakeSIMs that make your phone think it has an operator sim installed, so basically those messages/indicator no longer show.

Or, you can use the combination in the service menu thingy, where you can disable the gsm radio. (easily searchable, not gonna post it here for fear of flood of ppl who accidentaly brick their tabs trying to do this =)

Or you can just leave out the modem file, the next time you flash a rom.


I think those are pretty much the only options you have available to you. =>

Doubtful, as it doesn't even work on a p1010 or a p1000 l/n.
