[Q] Cyberpad iView 7xx TPC Rooting?

Anyone doing any "development" rooting, firmware flashing, CWmods etc on iView tablet/phones?
I found someone who did actually...named: eyeoncomputers (hey there!) who made a very comprehensive and excellent Youtube tutorial seen here (I hope this is allowed), titled:
IVIEW 760TPC Advanced Improvements - Flashing Firmware, Custom Scripts & more...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fATLTulwdQg
So now, at least I know it can be done on an iView....
I'm tempted to just go for it....unfortunately, a 760TPC spec is pretty much too far off from a 792 TPC model (dual sim phone capabilities + 2G/3G + GPS/A-GPS connectivities which will most likely get messed up) if I flash it...and without any firmware back-up I'd most likely brick it before I could say I have root!)
Basically...I just want the 792 TPC rooted (for backing up purposes Titanium back up needs root right?)....so has anyone done it yet? or knows how to do it? or maybe an idea on how to go about it? Anyone? :-?

My friend have an Iview-795TPC tablet but seems like a different story for them.
One of the kids or someone changed the lock pattern and one day the owner tried to open and locked after several attempts of trials.
Now, it asks for an email account and password of the (last) user who created and accessed the tablet but even the owner's account (email & password) seems like can't open it.
I also tried the HARD RESETTING of this gadget because when they sent it to me to do the remedy or fix it back to factory settings, I cannot undo it. Even I followed all the instructions and step-by-step procedures on the YouTube video, still cannot restore it.
Is anybody successfully tried to restore back to factory setting of this IView Tablet Model 975TPC?
I appreciate it to someone help me on this situation. Link or simple tutorial-instructions can do.
Thanks in advanced.

Thanks for the response.
Unfortunately, I cannot tell you about this tablet because it's my friend's gadget but I found out that it's okay to use for starters and I'm an ACER Tab user (A500),
I only brought this attention because my pal couldn't fix it. :fingers-crossed:

Here is the firmware for all the iview tablets. just unzip it and install the software and it will install the firmware to the device
iviewus.com/download/firmware/

iview 797tpc
I just purchased the Iview 797 TPC with jellybean 4.1.2.
These just released mid 2013, and have been looking all over for firmware, etc.
Not much out there for these models.
I had it connected to PC and the phone icon on desktop through media espresso said HTC generic.
So possibly these are clones of HTC.
These tabs are excellent except for the sound, they are to quiet for playback and handset volume.
So my question is can developers put aside the higher end models and get some ROMs for a Iview.
I would at least like to get jellybean 4.3 or even a piece of that KitKat .......

Flash / install the firmware

Now that I have downloaded the firmware, how do I put on the device? I don't have Windows (or rather would like not to use it).
I did successfully installed Android 4.4 on a Transformer Prime not so long ago, so I am comfortable with adb and fastboot tools.
Does anyone know?

Touchscreen not working after root, but S-Pen works fine

I posted this somewhere else, but I figured it was more appropriate to place it here.
After rooting and installing CWM using the method in the sticky at the top of the development section, (darkman's unnoficial CWM Recovery), My touchscreen no longer responds to finger input. The pen works fine, and is the only way I can navigate the tablet. Touch input doesn't work in CWM-touch either. I have tried: flashing a custom rom, flashing a stock rom through CWM, flashing stock firmware through Odin (both 4.0.4 and 4.1.2), resetting the triangle count, factory wipe/data reset, re-installing stock recovery, and changing various options in the settings. Nothing helped at all. I'm currently waiting for a reply on filing a warranty claim, but would really like not to have to send it in and wait for a new one. I've seen other people with similar issues, but most of them are either the s-pen doesn't work, or both s-pen and touch don't work. Does anyone have any idea of how to fix it, or is it definitely a hardware issue?
Thanks,
Reffu

Hi,
same issue here. Today the touchscreen stopped working suddenly after i flashed the Android Revolution HD 5.0 Rom yesterday. However, the S-Pen is still working fine. Installing other ROMs and the Stock ROM via Odin did not help. Issue allso appears in Touch-enabled-Recovery.
I see no reason, why this should be a hardware issue, although my N8000 came back from service a few days ago, where they also replaced the screen and digitizer.
Had anyone this issue before and was abled to resolve it?

I have the same problem on an n8013. Installed Revolution ROM HD version 5, rebooted and lost me touchscreen completely. Nothings worked. Flashed back to stock 4.1.2 but still no go.

to read this as a Note 10.1 newbie is not very encouraging. are there any similar facts between all of you like
which Note model do you have
how did you jaibreak (which method)
which rom did you have before
which rom do you have now
how did you flash a new rom
...
is there a way to find out whether the touchscreen is really "dead for touch"?

This is a bit scary - my Note 10.1 is arriving today, and I plan to root it at a minimum. I actually don't mind Touchwiz all that much on my Note 2 (which is running CleanROM ACE), so I think I might just root the 10.1 for now.
So restoring completely back to stock (via Odin) doesn't fix it? That is really odd that ROM-ing this thing might cause a hardware failure...

Did anyone solve this, I'm having the same problem.

I never actually ended up solving this. I sent it in for repair (I had just bought it about a week before attempting to root) after flashing back to stock, and now I have a "new" one . I really want to root it, but I'm afraid the same thing is going to happen again. I really don't want to have to check if the warranty will cover the same issue twice, even if they don't know I rooted.

Just curious - did you just root, or did you root and install a ROM?
I am only rooted so far - haven't felt the need to ROM yet - partially due to worries about this happening. I bought a refurb from Best Buy and only get 90 days of warranty.

If they say you got a new one, you got one. They'll tell you otherwise if there's an issue over the phone.
But I wouldn't be afraid of ROMs, but to be more diligent and wise when it comes to choosing them. It's like choosing a poisonous mushroom versus an edible one to make stroganoff or stir fry. If you know what to avoid for the next time and follow the correct process to doing the root and flashing, there will not be an issues.
This is from someone who has soft-bricked my first tablet and learned how to unbrick my SIM-less Captivate and Note 10.1. It's how you apply the method and how much attention you practice not getting stuck into these situations is what matters. Especially since I bricked my tablet via experimentation and un-bricked it on the same day with ease.
It's not some big complex deal of rocket science or something only the mere geniuses can do, its how you perceive yourself and how you act. If you believe that you will suck and brick it to kingdom come , it will happen intentionally or subconsciously.
In this case, it was a freak accident where the file/s accessed and deleted the wrong files which allowed for capacitive touchscreen use, and it should be reported to x developers if you have not done so already.
I have rooted and used the Revolution HD rom, the Rom where you customize the colors of the bar/other things, and on the Captivate, the AOKP Collective. I further customized the latter with the Xperia launcher as it zips.

Did anyone find a repair for this besides replacement? My Note 2 is doing the same thing now.

Has anyone found a fix for the touch screen not working yet??
Anyone have any ideas?

Technicians input for touch problem
I am a technician and been repairing electronic devices for over 30 years and I would say the majority of repairs I have done were caused by people not happy with how their standard brand new device works and feel they need to make it better by modifying it in some way or other.
Now with smartphones if you didn't want the device as a standard rom and operating system why buy it ?
If you think the phone would be so much better with a modified rom then buy one working with a modded rom to start with as most of you put as much effort into modding as you did in your school work.
Anyone with half a brain that follows the instructions on the mod sites exactly as shown step by step will never have a problem, all those that do end up with paper weights or bricks didn't follow the instructions in numerical order.
Believe it or not even if after you have modded a rom and brought it back to standard they know it has been modded as they have a list of problems associated with repairs after roms have been modded so you are only fooling yourself they don't.
Same as the smoker that tells his Dr he has given up even though all the symptoms prove he really didn't.
So in my expert opinion if you play with modding and stuff it up why should you be eligible for a warranty claim ? The manufacturer has sold you or supplied a working item that you decided to f_ck around with and because of your stupidity expect some one else to pay for it.
I am not saying don't mod your phone with all the great roms out there but please to save yourself a lot of pain and cost some poor smuck trying to run a business in these economic times a lot of out of pocket from sending items back for replacement or warranty plus the time it takes to do all the paperwork and such, please please please read the instructions 300% or triple check you are doing everything exactly as the instructions say and you will be enjoying all the new benefits of that customised rom and laughing at all the noobs stuffing up their brand new device from not doing so.
I know this won't fix your problem but reread that last bit it was your problem as you are to clever to follow some one else's instructions

anyone have solution regarding this issue, mine have issue also, can anyone spare how to fix it without changing hardware?

WOW.. And you come to XDA For ? Most of the time The modded roms often fix manufacture issues and add features the manufacturer decided users do NOT Need ..Being your first post on xda . I do NOT think attacking users is the way to go. Also your post adds nothing to help the users..
ON TOPIC
Have any of you who have this issue try to do a full Wipe and flash pit file for your device.. Something is being left behind and not over written is most likely the Cause.. Also post this in the Rom developers forum So maybe he can look into it more as its his Creation..
Good Luck

[ROM][ODIN] P500VPBMB3 Sprint 4.1.2 Firmware

P500VPBMB3 Sprint 4.1.2 Firmware
For some unusual reason there is little to no development for the SPH-P500 and absolutely ZERO official firmware available for the Sprint model. This means, if you soft brick the tablet trying to install something you should not have, you have no easy way of getting back to the stock firmware. In addition, getting to the 4.1.2 version of the firmware is a royal pain due to the massive amount of "PATCH CHECKS" and assert checks built in to the OTA update. This means any deodexed system or a number of other reasons will be rejected if you try the OTA update while on non-official or approved firmware. So, for your convenience, I have compiled a simple ODIN-Flashable TAR file which will jet you up to speed installing the latest official Sprint 4.1.2 firmware.
Details:
P500VPBMB3 Stock w/ MB3 Modem
Package Includes: BOOT, RECOVERY, SYSTEM, MODEM AND CACHE ZONES
Download:
P500VPBMB3 Sprint 4.1.2 Firmware
Password on the archive is: www.mobiletechvideos.com
How To Flash:
BACKUP YOUR FILES AND DATA BEFORE FLASHING...ALWAYS. First extract this file using WinRAR or a program capable of extracting a RAR package as the package inside it is the TAR file you need. This was done to save time on the download. Once extracted, using ODIN, select PDA and choose this file. Now place your tablet in DOWNLOAD MODE by having it powered off, then power on by holding POWER and VOLUME DOWN until you see the on-screen text come up. Release the buttons and press VOLUME UP to enter DOWNLOAD MODE. Now click START on ODIN. Once completed (takes around 10 minutes), it is advised to enter RECOVERY MODE and perform a FACTORY DATA RESET for the best bug free experience since I don't know what ROM you are flashing from.
Did this help you out? Great, I'm glad it did! Click that THANKS button next to my name if you have the time. Please note, if you find yourself in a hard/soft brick situation of any type on any advice, give me a shout via PM or email through the contact page on our site. We also offer repairs on a number of other issues.

27 downloads and nothing? I'd love some feedback so others can be confident in the firmware.

It´s a disease from all P31XX and P51XX useres don´t hitting the thanks button and don´t giveing feedback... maybe they don´t want any support.... (?)...
i don´t have a P51XX - i can´t give other feddback then this... sorry....

Haha it seems that way! Well thanks for your response. Nice to hear from somebody about this. For some reason the Tab 2 10.1 forum members seem to be dead but want development anyhow without any input!

There are a lot of people here in a german forum there is mostly nobody ...
i hope you get some feedback! if not: there is not problem first things that will reported are problems

Haha, how true! No news is good news right?

problem and feedback if it works...
Hi. I am pretty new here (although I have been a member for a while, I have not really been active). I do have a Sprint Samsung Galaxy tab 2 10.1 inch display model P500VPBMB3. Perhaps I can try out what you are talking about if it helps me with my problem below and then I will be more than happy to give you feedback.
PROBLEM
I never really rooted a device before but I am at a loss here since the current version of Android that I have on my device is 4.1.2 . It's working OK but I run out of space very often since I only have 16GB of main memory. I would love to upgrade to 4.2.x so that I have the option of storing apps on the external SD card. I am not clear exactly what you are giving us here on your thread. If you can explain it to me and especially if it does what I am outlining above I would want done, I would love to give it a shot and then give you some feedback.
Either way thank you for helping is Sprint tablet people whether or not what you have above will help me.
Thanks

You will actually want to look into custom recovery combined with a custom ROM to enable this type of option. What I have provided here is a stock firmware (stock operating system). This is actually already what you have installed on the device.

Thank you very much for your prompt reply. You seem to be a helpful sort of person. I am sorry to be so dense but I have no idea what those things are. Is there a place where I can, sort of begin from scratch to learn all about these things or can you please fully explain what I need to do here?
I get that yo said that what you are offering is what I already have. What I don't understand is what exactly what to look for. I do know that if I install the wrong thing, I can brick my device. What I don't know if how to find what I am looking for. I already tried it in the search box-that's how I got to your thread.

This is honestly a very tough section as the P500 is a rare unit that has little to no development. You are in the right sub-forum but finding any mods for your unit may not be possible at this time unfortunately.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! You can root with Kingo root and make modifications with xposed. I just have been so busy with work.
I will flash this when I have time. Now I can be more risky with flashing because I can now go back to stock ROM.

Hello, I know its been almost a year, but I tried to flash this ROM and get stuck after the tab reboots with the message "POWER RESET or UNKNOWN UPLOAD MODE", is there anything I can do to restore the tab (I did not do any backup).
Thanks a bunch

Do you have the Sprint model? If so, try re-downloading it and flashing again. Afterwards, perform a factory data reset.

The tab comes from China but in the options i've seen SPH-P500 so I supposed it was a model made for Sprint.
I did flash again and reset factory but nothing changed.

That is definitely unusual though the fact it came from China. This likely is NOT the right firmware for your model. The back of the unit should have the model number. See what it says...

P500
Wow!! I made a mistake!! I bought this tab to have some fun rooting and installing custom roms. I should have checked the forums first to see if there was any support. Thanks for what you've provided here. I'm going to at least try to root and install xposed.

I have a sprint gtab2 10.1 that's out of contract, so i'm willing to start working on things if needed.

if we no longer need to use the Sprint data can we flash a SPH-P5100 rom for wifi only ?

resurrecting an old thread. Need to find the original firmware for sph-p500. This appears to be it, but I can't find or get the password to the .rar file. I can't find the firmware anywhere else after a TON of google searches. any help appreciated in either getting the password to the .rar file, or a different place to download the firmware.

No nothing there.

I still cant fix it. No matter what I try I cant get it to show up with RKDevelopTool_v1.37 ,RKBatchTool, or withRK3xxx firmware tools. On the computer it will show android adb device pluged in at the control panel. But the programs will not show a device. i am screwed. I need a firmware to flash from sdcard in stock android recovery. But the AOC q70s15 is not on the AOC website.

I fixted it!!!!!!!! opened it up and pluged it up to a computer,stuck a neddle in between the 7th and 8th pins touched the power button and it showed as conected in mask mode. flashed Oma_RK31_Pipo_U8_KK_4.4_v1.1 and it is working!!!!!!!!

Ok. It is not fixed. I can not turn off the tablet. If I do it will not turn back on. I have to put it back in to Mask Mode and reflash. It will not keep it. Anyone has any help or suggestions?

Strange ... it's not that old. I looked it up out of curiosity and it was being reviewed as something 'new' at the very end of 2013.
You mentioned not seeing a download (of any kind) for your tablet on the AOC web site, but you didn't mention whether or not you've phoned the company's '800' number, or if you've spoken with one of their service technicians.
Did you come across this page, headed Centros de Servicio, for Chile?
For some reason, the "Q-series" does not show on their web site, but perhaps if you can get to speak with a technician, you could explain your problem?

I have emailed Aoc 3 times asking for help and never received an answer. As for calling the number... No I haven't. I would have take the tablet back to the store but my wife bought it and lost the receipt.

Looking at the linked page, in addition to the company's '800' number, there are 13 AOC service centers in Chile, each with its own phone number and each with at least one technician? You don't need a warranty repair, just someone to tell you where to get flashing instructions.
If no luck in Chile, try contacting AOC in another country, where they may have better support for the 'Q series' of tablets.
AOC (Admiral Overseas Corporation International) isn't a 'shoestring operation'. The company dates back to its 1934 founding, in the US. Keep on trying, don't give up so easily.

I have also emailed AOC USA

Someone named 'Patricio' has a kernel for your tablet. You didn't say you needed that, but if they are working with your tablet at that level of complexity, this might be a source to find out why your ROM won't 'stick' after flashing.
There's also someone else, from Chile, working with your tablet's firmware. He also should know how to make your ROM flash 'stick'.
This may or may not apply to AOC tablets, but with the non-branded phone imports, it has been known for a manufacturer to keep the same model name but make hardware changes on later production runs. If you get an expert's flashing instructions and it still doesn't work, then look for internal identification numbers and see if that matches with the ROM's source.
As you may know, that match has to be 100% or the firmware won't work after flashing.

Yes Patricio has shared the stock images with me but when I tried to flash it it said that I need a rk3188loader.bin. I tried with a rk3188loader.bin from a ROM from Oma´s Pipo U8. It wouldn't go past the AOC Splash screen. So I flashed Oma´s Pipo U8 but it will not stay if I turn off the tablet. I don't know much about rk3xxx. I use too Samsung android. They are way different. The way the Roms are built and the way they flash.

???
I guess I need the rk3188loader for the stock ROM.
Does anyone know anything about flashing rockchip devices? Do I need a different rk3188loader.bin? Are they the same for all? I am trying to understand this.

Patricio gave me a different parameter.img than came in the KitKat ROM and I haven't installed any of the apps that came in the ROM. I don't know which one it is but I can reboot the phone or turn it off and it turns back on. I think it was me deleting the apps I don't use in the system like google+ mxplayer ( because I use mxplayer pro) but it works ? thanks to everyone for the help.

Hi, why do you needed the stock rom for this tablet? I have this and I'm looking for a ROM to install, I think this stock rom is very bad, too laggy

I don't need it anymore. After I got the tablet to keep the ROM after I turn off the tablet. Now I am happy and don't need it anymore.

Q70S15 firmware
Hi Patricio, I also have the Q70S15 and I need to root it, but I didnt find any backup firmware on the internet...the files you posted here are the ones of that tablet? If so,can you confirm please? Do you speak spanish, if so I can write in that language too.
Thank buddy, waiting your reply....

Boot loop after twrp restore of original Nandroid on gt-n8013

Howdy
Not sure where to start asking for help. Here is where I'm at :
Twrp (2.8.6?) works great... Too good
Used it to create a complete Nandroid of my original (jb) system.. I backed up everything I could see.
Installed a blisspop rom that also worked.
Decided to return to the original system .
In twrp did factory reset, advanced wipe of dalvic cache, data, and system each time.
Did restore with md5 check. 6 md5's all good, no failures
Restore from Nandroid file on ext micro sd. Everything successful. No fails reported anywhere.
Reboot. System tries to start but returns to twrp instead of booting to system. Have done this 3 times with same results.
My stock was something like UEUCOI1.
I hate to have to start over but will if that's the best I can do. If so I don't know where to proceed from here. Where to locate a stock room
Any suggestions are much appreciated,
Best regards,
Dr Dan

Ok, I have seen what you have done. You installed and did too many things at once on TWRP! If you do that you will get a bootloop or a soft-brick which is very common. If I ever got stuck I just downloaded Samsung Smart Switch for Windows.
1st: Turn off your tablet/phone.
2nd: Press More then Emergency software recovery and initialization.
3rd: Press Device initialization.
4th: Take off your cover of your tablet/phone and see the sticker for the Model Number and the Serial Number and type it in.
5th: Sit back and wait for 10 - 120 minutes and it should be done!
(Not all steps have been written down in this post. You'll see it in the Smart Switch app for Windows.)
That should do it!
Hope I helped,
Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,
I got the back cover off and found something that I suspect is the serial number. It is SNR32CB01G4SN. Does that seem right to you? Inside the back cover (plastic) is KIGDSW1102 504B. Regardless it never asks for a serial number.
Your instructions call for a model number. I could not find one inside the back cover. The smart switch PC app is calling for a model name. There is no place for a serial number. The app will not accept GT-N8013 in the name space nor will it accept Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1.
I don't know what other info I can give it. What do you recommend?
Thanks for helping me get started,
Dr Dan

Update :
After experimenting and pushing a bunch of buttons I was able to get it to accept the model name as GT-N8013 and the serial number as written above except that I omitted the first 2 letters (SN). The search then reported...
"'GT-N8013' does not support initializing. Please contact our service center."
Looks like I'm still up the proverbial Creek. Stuck in TWRP never never land.
Thanks for trying ,
Dr Dan
Update. Upon reading about smart switch it says it is only good for devices with android 4.3 or higher. This tablet in its last update was 4.1.2. The last rom I had (Blisspop) was 5.1.1 but I doubt samsung would accept that as valid software.
Conclusion, smart switch is a dead end. I'm hoping to make either gnoba or hyperdrive rom work but am having a hard time getting the files needed. Also cannot make Sammobile site work so I cannot get the original firmware to flash.
I'll keep swinging as long as I can.

I actually starting to think that twrp is just not the right recovery for Note 10.1. When I was trying to flash the original software it happened to me too. It just has a bug or insufficiency to install system on some roms. Here is what I did:
-Installed gnabo rom for a system base. I STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT YOU FLASH THE SAME BASED ROM WITH THE ROM YOU WANT TO FLASH.
-Wipe everything EXCEPT system.
-Flash the rom you want. In my case it was the stock rom.
Well, not a proper, solid solution but if it's working, who cares?

Hi furkey,
I also saw the gnabo room. I got 6 files...
Gnabo room v8
N801x+v6. Zip
Update-supersu-v1. 99.zip
Gt-n8013-kk-WiFi -fix .zip
Stock-gt-n8000-leaked-kk-boot.img-cwr-installer.zip (really a convoluted name?)
V8-final-fix.zip
I was unable to get the kernal. Each attempt sent me to the playstore to install Mega drive. I have it already installed and am fully subscribed but...
I wrote Mikyno (the creator of gnabo) asking for help but never heard back.
The morass of gnabo files is bewildering. I don't know what I need and don't need and how or with what tools to load them.
I'm pretty sure I need the kernal as I understand it the kernal is the interface between hardware and software. Without it and without some guidance or support from the creator I gave up.
Then I spent a couple of days trying to locate a 4.1,2 stock firmware (ready to give up on roms altogether) . There were several published but all links have expired and the posters do not respond. Sammobile requires a puzzle be solved to register. I spent several hours trying to make my tablet move a puzzle piece. No success.
Finally I gave up and reloaded the blisspop I'd installed to start this journey. It is a bit flakey at times but it's all I have. I cannot go forward and cannot go backward.
Any directions you can send my way are much appreciated.
Dr Dan

Hello,
I too am experiencing this. I really can't throw this device away. I have even tried a stock rom from high on android. Downloaded and used odin to flash to no avail. I hope anyone will have an answer or another stock rom or anything!
Thank you!
Tony

Hi badteddy,
Perhaps we can work this out together. I'd like to try out the stock rom you have. I went to the site but was unable to search very well at all and could not find any stock roms. Can you send me a download link to it? I assume it is for the UEUCOI1 build. I think anything close should work. I also assume your tablet is the GT-N8013 Wifi only version.
Have you loaded the blisspop rom and twrp both? I have both working as advertised with a minor improvement.
Looking forward to hearing from you ,
Dan

of course! here's the link:

the link to download the rom is here:

i have not tried the blisspop rom. I believe I was using the latest twrp.

Just do what I said in the first place. It worked out for me and I have a strong feeling that it will work out for you too (well, hopefully). You can use just the main rom file, not thinking others are required too. Or you can simply flash the tab s sensation rom instead of gnabo rom. It can be found in this page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10-1/development/gnabo-rom-x-tab-s-feature-t3164779. Notify me if you succeed or not.
And do not forget to mention me otherwise I may not notice that you have wroten to me.

Hi Tony,
Thanks much for the links. That site has always given me grief. When I select download it simply takes me back to the same page to select download again etc. This time your 2nd link worked! Great day. I got the file, unzipped it, removed the ". Md5" extension and ran the md5 Checker. It failed. I hope you checked yours before installing it. Is there any other place I can get that file. Upon returning to the same page to dl the file again I got stuck back in the old circle I have always found myself in.
On anther note; I think furkey is stepping in to help. He wants us to try the gnabo rom. It looks good but there are 7 files needed. I don't know if furkey was referring to you or to me in his last post. I'll ask and see. I think he can easily clear the air on what is needed to load gnabo.
I also am using the latest twrp (2.8.6 I think).
I'll get back when I learn more.

Hi furkey,
Thanks much for stepping in. I'm assuming you mean me instead of (possibly in addition to) badteddy.
I'd never heard of the tab s rom. It looks really good. The gnabo scares me a little. My concern is you likely have flashed more support software than I. What works for you may well crash mine.
The tab s rom was given without an md5 so I can only hope I got a good download.
Once I've rebuilt my courage I'll give it a go and report back to you (and badteddy) with results.
Best regards,
Dr Dan
I don't recall a stylus on the tab s. Does this rom support the active stylus? Do you know if there is an addon that will include support of not? I'll also ask the creator but I've yet to hear back from any rom maker save the sweet lady that made the blisspop rom.... Needy blonde.

It's not a Tab S rom. It's a Note 10.1 rom with Tab S features in it like new touchwiz, file explorer and etc. Your s-pen will work on this rom.

OK. I tried out the Tab S Sensation Rom. It is outstanding. Here is a link that shows what I did,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67440486&postcount=342
Furkey recommended it and he was spot on!
I was never able to dl the link you gave but I did find the file and checksum on a different mirror. I finally got it but have no use for it as the tab s room works better than the stock.
Enjoy,

Hello, drdan123,
I am Jonathan Kang, and I'm using my secondary account.
So try to use Samsung Kies because it probably supports older devices. Smart Switch is for the newer devices. I hope I helped!
