Hi @Valera1978 .Did you check it?? Sorry if I bothered! Thanks.
Still checking. Look like it's not a kernel problem. Look like cm need time (about 1 sec) to lock screen after turn-off screen. If you open cover faster - it's unlock screen by cover and only then lock by timer. Trying understand this logic.
Workaround - you can switch off lock screen in settings.

I didn't ask that question !![emoji3] [emoji3] I had asked " Now that bigbiff has built a recovery for SM-P901, is it possible to have cyanogenmod on SM-P901 too?? It's Exynos too and the only difference is that it's has Sim card slot! I think both SM-P900 and SM-P901 Have the same source and the only difference is the 3g capability! Thanks." You said you would check it but didn't answer! this was my question !! Thanks again!![emoji6]

I think we have reached the phase when we have to decide we will move further. Everyone of us has certain type of using tab. For example, I use this tab at work. I choose stabilty and long battery than performance and bleeding edge features.
At this moment I decide to move from stock to aosp-based firmware. Last two days I tried many custom roms on other tab and found two paths of futher working:
1. port firmware with many mods out-of-box like dirty unicorns
2. choose stable base like cm and omnirom and use xposed and gravitybox for features.
3. return to stock and remove everything there (pessimistic variant:) )
I think we need more rare but more stable builds. For now It some risky to use nightly builds of cm because we have to find to solve new bugs every time, with camera for example.
I have some more ideas about this, but I dont want to publish now. I want to hear your thoughts about strategy of futher development.
Just note, We (Valera and me) can't maintain several roms at the same time.
Please, write your thoughts.

I agree on the stability, even though I have been updating to the nightly builds, I think it's a waste of time and risky. I'd rather get fewer stable updates. Battery life is also important for me. Thanks for your efforts!

I believe in option 2, a stable base (bi-weekly, or even monthly update would do). But, I would love to see optional kernels, type converting your custom kernel: basic | pro | vtfb, but also kexec as I would love to see the modified TWRP finalized in order to use MultiROM fully out.

today's preview build - omnirom
https://yadi.sk/d/RvcTk6JocSdss
Nice one too. However, between the 3 (cm, slimkat and omni) there are only minor differences, as I see it. A few nice options here and there but my preference goes with cm, simply for the fact that it has super user pre-installed. Both the other come out of the box w/o su. Just another headache to install and make sure it's working. Although, I must say that I'm getting quite a collection of teaser ROM's and keeping the all together under MultiROM makes it a lot easier in swiching back and forth. Amazing work though. Thanks.

I am in the same boat as you. Stability and battery life are key for me as well as solid s-pen use.

What a fantastic tablet this is and as a musician I can finally stop lugging hundreds of pages of music and dozens of books with me. Just this beast.

Thanks for all of your hard work on this. I love CM.

Hi @Valera1978 . Please help !! i download the p901 Rom and when i wanted to flash it via recovery it says "this package is for device : v1a3g ; This device is v1a3gxx . "
E:Error executing updater binary in zip
i think i should rename something!!
I had the same issue with my T-900 at the time and fixed it with Valera's help
Valera's ROM[/URL]
Valera1978 said:
But you can fix it:
in zip find \META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script and in first line find v1awifi and replace it to v2wifixx
In your case it would be to find v1a3g and replace it to v1a3gxx

You can in file: \META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script
replace in first 2 lines "v1a3g" to "v1a3gxx"

Uploading new version, but it will take a time.

For SM-P901 only!!!
Updated to v1a3gxx: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-6nm7Jks0W5c0pncmtuSjlFRGc/view?usp=sharing
May be tomorrow will try to build version with network/dialer. Config files already fixed, but need check additional proprietary files from original firmware.
