Hi guys, welcome to Galaxy Tab pROM 8.4. This ROM is 'Wizless' in that it doesn't have the Samsung launcher or widgets, and tries to remove as much bloatware as possible while maintaining a fully functional ROM.

[size=+1]Introducing: Galaxy Tab pROM 8.4 post-install version 1.0 with Xposed Framework[/size]

In Galaxy Tab pROM 8.4, I have updated the post-install script that will install, on first boot, the Xposed Framework, wanam, tinted status bar, butteredtoast, cputemp in status bar, network status bar info, wanam xposed torch, show wifi password, xhalo floating window. This does not mean you have to manually install Xposed, and enable modules. It is all automated and all happens on first boot. No need to 'reflash' the ROM. This will happen any time you do a factory reset on this ROM. It also sets a few default settings, disables touch sounds, and a bunch of things behind the scenes. I consider this a version 1.0 product. This version brings the ability to set home screen layouts and widgets, and It has great potential and will able me to apply entire settings on your device--everything from ringtones to brightness, volume, etc. You name it, I can probably make the post-install script do it. This will enable the Galaxy Tab pROM 8.4 to be truly customized in every way exactly how I intend it to be.

You will notice upon first boot, when the welcome screen comes on and is setting up for the first time, that the tablet will quickly 'hot boot' after about 10 seconds. This is completely normal and is part of the post-install process. Don't freak out and think you're in a boot loop. Everything will be fine.

See it in action:

I see a lot of excited people... Where's the download?

Lol... you didn't post a thread without a ready download did you? :p

I'm also curious to see your kernel source, as it appears you are running a special kernel.

Excuse me, but you are the one who is clueless with statements like this.

GPL requires kernel source be posted and buildable. Please read the rules.

I assume the OP will post source when he posts the download. Just never seen a 'placeholder' thread, when I create a thread I have a link to provide as well.

I've created a few. Thanks for the compliment.

Waiting on a fellow moderator to give me the go since he's testing.


Yes.... Source will be posted.
Thank you, that's all I ask for...
