[Recovery][Touch][TWRP][2.11]GTab2 (7 and 10) [6/6/12] - Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development

Galaxy tab 2 10 owners, do not flash this, I have to make a custom one for it first (larger res and screen), I will post this as soon as I can!
Who's tired to using the vol/sleep buttons in recovery? I know I am, just about every device is getting some kind of touch recovery, why not the Gtabs?
Presenting touch recovery for the Galaxy Tab 2 series (I need a tester or 2 for the Gtab 2 10.1". PM me), based on TWRP, ported and custom themed by yours truly!
Special Thanks to:
- The Team Win Recovery Project <link>
- Xoomdev for creating CWM
- Chuck, my teammate, and sadly his grab 7 that gave its life for this recovery (RIP little guy hah!)
Procedure
Already Rooted with CWM recovery?
1. Download the cwm flash version of the recovery
2. Flash it using recovery, reboot and you are done.
New Gtab 2 user, not rooted or CWM flashed?
1. Download the img file instead.
2. User Heimdall, or Odin to write a new recovery.
3. Then flash my root zip
Downloads
1. TWRP Recovery CWM flash
2. TWRP Recovery IMG
3. Root zip via recovery
Enjoy!

YAY!!!!
Installing now, hopefully my tab doesn't get sacrificed... Good thing i bought the accidental damage warranty.
I'll report any problems, I need to flash the new tab2lite, so it's a perfect test.
Do you know how it handles backups? cwm backs up the full tab including internalSD. That resulted in backups bigger than i can fit on the xtra 2gb sd i had
UPDATE: i have installed and it's working great so far.

Sweet! Downloading now, I will install it shortly and report back!

It's fantastic, thanks man.

does this work on the galaxy tab 2 10.1?
So has anybody tested this on the samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 us wifi? 5113

I will when I get home.

Thank you so much! While I think CWM is the gold standard in recovery I just love TWRP's touch recovery.
Just flashed it. Works great. I love how I can now see/flash from the internal storage. CWM wouldn't let me do that.

I flashed it and it works great, it takes some time to get used to but once it becomes familiar.... CWM who?
I tried every single major option, and no problems to report back.
Sincerely, thank you for this release, it is always good to learn a new way to do things.

Factory reset wipes things twice. Give it a try.
Doing a system restore now of a backup I made before trying out that new Tab2Lite ROM. Can't get back to AOKP fast enough!
System backup / restore worked fine.
How does one take a screenshot in recovery?

Don't think its possible I photoshopped the op graphic lol but it's a good Photoshop hah.
Thanks for the kind words.. its my first recovery (and theme for that matter). Anyone know a good themer? I think the ice blue I chose looks stunning on smoled screens!

It should work fine from what I've read.

Thanx scottx . One more help i need that its writted to flash the .img file with oding. Can you tell me how do i do that?

The img. file needs to be tar balled/zipped to use Odin. I don't know if any scripts need to be added to the file (don't think it does).

How would one go about flashing this with Heimdall? I think I am doing it correctly, by going to the command prompt and typing in "heimdall flash --recovery," but it will not flash. Is there a different way to flash this?

Make sure you download the heimdall suite. Follow the readme to install the correct drivers.
Use heimdall-frontend instead of the command prompt. Click on the flash tab, and use the pit file provided in the root thread. Once that's done select the correct partition and the file you want to flash then flash it.

Hm. I installed this, made a backup, flashed a few things perfectly, then went to try a new rom. So I did another backup and wiped /system, /cache, and did a factory data reset. Flashed the rom, didn't really like it, wiped the same things, and tried to restore my old backup.
/system restored correctly, I can tell because I still have Apex Launcher, which I previously converted to a system app using TiB. However, none of my apps came back. My wallpaper reverted to the drop of water, and I'm getting super bad force closes on Apex. Because of this, I'm thinking /data did not restore properly. I downloaded TiB from the market and tried restoring my apps using the nightly backups I had scheduled. No backups were found. My external sd card is fine, some things I had downloaded on it are still there.
Last thing, I flashed CWM using the touch recovery, booted into it, and tried a previous backup made with CWM, same problems...
Any ideas on what the problem is?
EDIT: while restoring, I get an error restoring /data

[ROM] [2012-01-12] [LA1 V2.2] Sheep ROM - Downloads, Guides, Tipps and Tricks

Hello,
I want to introduce the Sheep ROM. Why? Because I'm not young and I need the money.

The Official Part
Everybody is responsible for his Note. If someone bricks his phone with Software or hints out of this thread, it is not my fault.
At least you should take some precautions:
Have an EFS Backup available
Have a CWM Backup available. In case you have to go back suddenly without asking
Have a Titanium Backup. Maybe you have to wipe during flashing. A CWM Backup won't help you, since it flashes the old firmware. Apps and Settings for the new ROM are saved in a Titanium Backup.
What is the Sheep ROM then?
The Sheep ROM is a custom ROM for the GT-N7000 based on Samsung Stock ROMs with the following features:
Deodexed
Zip-Aligned
Pre-Rooted
All apps and feature from Samsung are kept.
(up to 1.2) FM Kernel integrated. The Kernel has CWM 5 and is compatibel to CF Root Kernel (Details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342807)
build.prop Tweaks (smoother, better memory management)
System Tweaks (better IO performance)
(Up to 1.2) All OXX and OXA product codes integrated. 64 at the moment
Bat in %
CRT Off
Fully Connect Icons
(Up to 1.2) CWM flashable
(From 2.0) Extended Power Menu
The CWM Manager App from Chainfire is not included. Flash a CF Kernel in case you have no backup from this App. I recommend using this App.
Themes and all this stuff was not touched by me. But since the ROM is fully deodexed, it should be a good base doing this. Feel free to create Themes for this ROM or modify it as you like!
Downloads
http://78.46.48.107/
Installation
Up to V1.2:
Flash it per CWM. I recommend the CWM App from Chainfire:
Copy the ROM to the internal SD
Start the CWM Manager
Chose "Flash Update"
Select the Sheep ROM
Acknowledge
You can flash the ROM also directly from CWM. Reboot into Recovery and select:
"install ZIP from SD Card"
"choose ZIP from internal SD Card"
select the Sheep ROM Zip
Acknowledge
V2.x:
V2.x and ongoing are TAR files for Odin. They were mainly created to overcome the root issues of KL7 and later Firmware. The archive contains a Stock kernel in order not to increment the binary counter.
Download Sheep V2.x and extract the RAR File. You should see one or more TAR files
Switch off Note and boot into Download Mode
Start Odin and connect Note to PC
Add the Sheep TAR Files as PDA, Modem, CSC in Odin (see Odin flash guidelines if you are in doubt)
Press "Start"
Flashing will take 3 to 4 Minutes in both cases. The first boot will take up to 5 Minutes (it is a deodexed ROM).
Happy Flashing.
Thanks! Can I flash using Mobile Odin?
Flashed with cwm recovery. Super smooth looks like everything works.
Thanks

The App was intentionally skipped. I appreciate Chainfires work, therefore you should flash the original Chainfire Kernel in order to fetch the App.
Great job! I was waiting for someone to cook up a ROM.. What is the 2.3.6 base for this rom, KKA or KK9?
Thanks!
Installed. Thanks so much! Was flawless. Only during reboot saw the yellow warning symbol. Removed the battery and then turned it on and it went to CMW Recovery mode and worked fine! Thanks a lot!

KKA. I tried both, but KKA was a little bit smoother.
That's what I thought already. But after pushing the cwm apk it works as if I have his kernel already. Just without any limitations.
I don't understand how it's possible, but I'm not complaining.

do i have to delete any cache to avoid bootloop?
Cache and Dalvik-Cache is wiped automatically during install. Thats why the first boot takes about 5 Minutes.
Great job, thank you.

If you go to the SGSII theres a program you can use to do it.... Or just copy the EFS folder somewhere. Ideally on your computer in addition to on your SD card, just in case the you loose everything on your phone, including the internal storage.

[ROM]V20Q flashable zip, 100% stock[updated:mediafire]

Hy everybody,
I saw that in the latest method of flashing kdz, the flash tool extracts kdz, by partitions, and of course ext3 partitions.
So i simply made a flashable zip, with untouched ext3 partitions from v20q.kdz.
THIS IS 100% FACTORIAL STOCK:
-you have to root
-wipe data and cache NOW NOT NEEDED(built in format /system /data /cache)
-100% factorial stock kernel included
-baseband and recovery will not be changed
-if you have bootloop, try to flash backtoext3 first

Thanks a lot, I wanted to try the latest stock + tweaked kernel to compare, I have CM7 since September and I miss a couple of features (HDMI resolution, DivX).
Unfortunately the fine server you chose to host blows, it says "Only files that you personally uploaded can be downloaded"... is it a region discrimination? if no then why did you chose such lame server.
Psst, rar the file and split it half, then use mediafire or use http://minus.com/ If you want I can mirror the file as soon as I get ahold a copy
--------------------------------------------
Thank you as promised a new mirror as soon as the download finishes.
I recommend this kernel, because I know, stock always sucks.

For me stock kernel is the best one. I have bug with guestekrnl, when i change built in oc tool, it changes something, but when i leave a tab, and i go back it gets back to default. It does not save my settings.
With the stock browser i only had speed problems in scroll, i think it is due to flash player and low vm heapsize. i am working on it.
And more one... i uploaded to more one mirror. this was my last upload. with a small change.
Is it a full wipe?

SuperonClick should work now, and another one I cannot remember the name of. However, since you've followed the guide before it's probably the quickest option. (I mean, root using app, install cwm from android takes longer than installing cwm from nvflash and rooting from there.)
Thanks...
I just flashed one part , it seems working properly ?
Maybe today, or tomorrow, i will release my SmartKitchen tool. Everybody will be able to make his own rom. With a lot of chooseable item like tweaks, or mods.
Is there anybody who interested in it?
It is released now. Everybody who would like to include root in the update package can build an own update.zip.

Or can you guide me how to make so that I can make the zip file by myself?
Thanks!
After, almost, daily changing roms I decided to flash clean stock gingerbread. I flashed this rom and everything is ok but today I tried to patch PDroid. But unsuccessfully. PDroid said that this "not android rom" or something like that. Then I try to patched Flix123`s rebuild of v20q. Successfully. Does anybody know can I use that patch made by PDroid on rom rebuild by Flix123 with this clean untouched rom? I`m little afraid to do that myself ) Maybe somebody already tried that. Or knows why can`t patch this rom?
I am using this and it works.perfectly !

[Kernel][ICS] Stock Kernel with Deepsleep Fix [GT-P750X]

So folks, its a little bit too late, i know, but i made a flashable zip of stock kernel from the China FW. It contains all the necessary modules, etc.. It contains all the necessary files that the tab falls to sleep after l2_hsic going crazy. This solve the unnecessarily high battery drain since Android 4.0.4 aka ICS was published by samsung. Is intended for those who have no desire to a custom kernel.
But notice this kernel is not overclockable, should work with any firmware and this requires root to flash the kernel.
PS: But this kernel is only for the 3G versions (GT-P7500/7501), why only the 3G models are equipped with the high battery drain.
What do I need?
- The kernel
- Root ->look here
-> Do you have ICS on it, point ranges 2 and 3
-> You still have Honeycomb on it, start from step 1
- a custom recovery -> for example here
- wherewithal basic knowledge -> Look at the forum or ask at Aunt Google.

- download the kernel and flash it through your custom recovery
- Of course only interesting if you are already using TWRP or CMW.

Flash through CWM / TWRP
You place the zip on the internal memory or external SD card.
- To boot into recovery, hold volume down when you restart
- Go to "install zip from sd card", depending on the type of recovery (CWM)
-> Or just install (in TWRP)
- look for the folder where you have placed the zip
- And flashes this now by clicking on yes in CMW or slide to the right with TWRP.
- Then reboot and kernel you got it.

Before you flash this stuff, made a backup (Nandroid) of your system. Only if something goes wrong, this make sure you can restore your old system again. I 've tested it, but you never know.

Samsung, for there bugfree chinese kernel
and "stiffmeister", for found out which kernel is not effected by l2_hsic bug
PPS: I testet it with the Hungary FW without this kernel. After 1 hour the bug came back.:silly: So i flashed this kernel again and it works like charme. So it should work with any other FW.
Hey thanks man. So now we finally have the fix for ICS and JB ROMs.

Ok was on cm10.1 moved back to stock, installed custom recovery and this kernel and still seem too have the occasional flash which was the reason I decided to move back to stock. Any ideas?

Maybe try a different bootloader.
As far as I am aware I have never updated the boot loader. Any ideas Where I would get the stock ics boot loader

From here. Choose your device folder and flash the tar via Odin with pda on your pc. If you are having a wifi device, the zip must be extracted before you flash it via odin. But i think you have a 3G device. Otherwise you dont be here in this thread.
Wow i forgot how much long the galaxy tab could hold on. I was on A1 and Yoda's kernel and was kinda used of charging my tablet every 2-3 days. But man, im glad i flashed stock, this is so smooth no need to overclock and it lasts way longer on my device. I doubled my battery life and it stays on for days almost weeks with daily use. Sad to say to developpers but stock is really amazing on ICS.
I really recommend giving stock kernel a second chance. Im blown away, thanks for posting this!

You do know that the wakelock issue is already fixed right? Now in almost every JB ROM(except for those no longer updates ones) no more l2_hsic wakelock. For ICS custom ROMs, use A1 kernel.

I appreciate the effort ,just installed it this afternoon and I can see the effect perfectly, all deep sleep,not one minute at 200mhz. All of it without too much hassle. Thanks to you!
We're lucky android is so open and has a great community,depending on Samsung alone is not recommended.
Thank you
Thank you also from me. Works percfectly!

Great idea...
I had a problem a couple of weeks ago where I had unlocked my bootloader, flashed TWRP & SSU, (and then decided I was happy with the stock ROM for the time being) only to get a notification a few minutes after re-setting up my M8 about the OTA to 1.54.401.5.
Had to reflash stock recovery via Fastboot, do the OTA, relfash TWRP and then somehow I lost root so had to reflash SSU.
This would have been perfect....I'll keep it for future as I'm still with the stock ROM for now
Thanks! :good:
Nice was on twrp now on philz really nice mode work's great
Thanks for this

ok, so im slow, please take it easy on me
So after you flash this do you essentially have 2 recoveries and then you can pick between the 2 when you load into recovery mode?

I tried it, it works good, certainly easier then flash via computer in fastboot, but there is only one recovery can be installed at a time, you have to re flash the app if you want to switch, unless I am missing something.
Can this be done like the dual recovery for the Xperia phones, volume down power goes into TWRP, volume up power goes into CMW.
Thanks

Yes one at a time
Well I have no knowledge on how that is done on xpera phone but as said before this is just to make flashing a different recovery on your phone a breeze

6 Days Late but no h8 but...
As seen in the newer version of twrp it didn't seem necessary to update(From the ability to flash imgs right from the recovery truly awesome) if you want to see one would need more the 3 people to say yes
