[Q] SmartStay on the Tab 2? - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all!, i have the GTab 2 7.0 with JellyBean 4.1.2 rooted, i know that there is the 4.1.2 but my version has IR.. but, my version doesnt have SmartStay, like the S3 and s4, and i heard that the 4.1.2 have that!, its from stock or a modification?

That is a feature of those devices not a feature of android 4.1.2, simply having android 4.1.2 wont automatically get you that feature. Unless a developer decides to take the time to try and port that feature (if it's even possible) to our tablet then we will not see it.

Ripper ROM has it. I'm pretty sure microdelta does too, and they both support ir.

And seeing as how the p3110's 4.1.2 has it, I'm sure the p3113 will have it when our 4.1.2 firmwares start rolling out.

SmartStay has nothing to do with the IR, it's a thing that uses the front facing camera to tell whether or not your looking at the screen and turn the screen off if you aren't.

I know what smart stay is. The op said he had the gtab 2 7.0 with the ir blaster and wanted smart stay. Well, ripper ROM works on that tab, and supports both ir and smart stay. It works most of the time for me, if i am in portrait.
Hence the word "and".

Yeah, it is not working for me now either. When I first installed this rom, it would at least detect them in portratit, maybe the lighting was better or something.
I use keep screen on, anyways. it keeps the screen on depending on the position of the tablet, upright vs flat.
Edit: yeah it depends on the lighting, because it is working fine now. When I move my head it starts to fadenthen when I bring my face back into view the screen comes back on. Still, keep screen on works better, great app.

Any feedback on CM10 8-18 d2vzw official nightly?

I'm itching to try CM now that it's official, but I depend on my phone and need stability. Does anyone who's tried it have any feedback? Anything broke?
i may have to flash that..
I wouldn't run the official nightlies for the time being until the data and MMS fixes get approved and merged. CVPS (Austin Dickenson) posted an Alpha 2 on his G+ with those fixes above so you would be better off running those.

Yea, wouldn't want those issues. I'd read some about that and assumed that since there was a couple of days between CVPS's fix and the posting of the official nightly that the fix would be included.
So, how actually stable and usable is this then.
I want to get CM10 or paranoidandroid running, but it looks as though its a gigantic pain in the ass right now with all these issues that people talk about.

I dunno, I've been running CM10 for weeks now with basically no problems. MMS is borked, but whatever.
I have seen a MMS fix and also think people are having problems depending on your phone. It will not hurt to flash it and flash back if you have problems.

Here's the code review for the patch:
http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/21492/
In G+ he indicates it is a fix for MMS. Nothing is mentioned about losing IMEI. I haven't read anywhere where anybody has a handle on what causes that issue. It's seemingly random.
This post descibes how to backup and restore EFS:

And this post describes how to restore from scratch using a Windows PC, which isn't a lot of use for us Linux people because a Windows VM in Virtualbox doesn't seem to recognize the phone through USB:

Does this assume that there aren't any glaring issues such as data/camera/mms etc requiring fixes?

No regrets
I decided to take the plunge last night and have done a reboot with NO ill effects to my MMS or IMEI.
The stock CM camera is amazing. Video, FF and ZERO shutter lag are all present. I was worried about losing some of the touchwiz camera options, but I do not miss them.
Data works, but my room is a deadzone so I'll have to wait until I venture outside to see how capable it is.
Wi-fi seems a tad weaker, but not by much.
All of my apps work (netflix included) and the only "annoying" things I have found so far is HBO go not being compatible and Facebook Sync not working the way I would expect it to. I've read that the FB glitch is due to poor support from the facebook app, so I don't think it's really an issue with the ROM.
There is occasional homescreen glitching, which is very slight and happens almost never. It just causes the screen to flash a little bit. There is a fix for this problem but I think you have to re-apply it after every reboot. Either way, NOT a deal breaker.

Ty for the mini review.
Did you install with kexec or just flashed in recovery like normal?
I am now using the other recovery (can't recall the name) as I've read it's better, but I am used to cwm.
If it's just now a simple wipe/install that's fine.
Now I just need to back up the IMEI and back when I get a chance.
But it still doesn't look that official until I see it on the Site.
Maybe it's there but I'm blind

This. It has been up since last night. And it has the same problems but today's/tomorrows merges are fixing them. If you only want one dd to flash, maybe do it Sunday night or Monday morning. Those builds will likely have fixes merged. Or as other have stated use cvpcs prealpha build which is already fixed.

I actually enjoy touchwiz too. I never thought I would.
I am using nova launcher and tw, so far it's a nice fast combination.

Reunited with my HTC Rezound
I just flashed the latest (as of now, only) CM nightly from their website which requires an UNLOCKED bootloader to be installed on the phone. The EZ unlock app in the market is as dummy proof as it gets. Just make sure your device has root. Also, use CWM recovery provided in the EZ recover app also found in the market. Make sure you flash the right recovery, the first time I didn't check the correct radio button and flashed the stock recovery back onto the phone. That was a bit of a mind-f**k.
After some testing outside of the house I find that it has as good or better network signal than I had with "stock" ROMs. I don't ever recall having 4g with full bars before installing this ROM. The wi-fi still seems weak, but I'm sure it will get tweaked eventually!
I think it's amazing what developers do. Thank you, wherever you are.

Are there any problems using N8013 outside US?

Hello,
I am from Algeria. I want to buy a Galaxy Note 10.1 N8013 from eBay. What are the problems that I may run into using the N8013 model outside US?
And I also noticed that N8010 is more expensive than N8013, so why is that?
Thank you =)
N8000 is outfitted with mobile data as well as WiFi, so the additional hardware calls for a bit more funds.
As for issues, it's different from person to person.
I find that the multi view could use the option of allowing ANY application to run in dual mode, but fortunately there's a solution for that.
The notification bar can be annoying if you use writing apps on the right side of the screen,and the polaris office update doesn't work with JB update in US, so if yours has that issue, just delete the updated polaris.
Other than that, I'd say the note 10.1 is a pretty well rounded tablet.
Consumes as well as produces.
Win.

Thanks for the reply
But, I don't mean issues with the tablet. I mean what problems I am going to face with the US version of Galaxy Note 10.1 when I use it outside US, in Algeria? For example, will I miss some features and updates? Will I have problems with electricity...? You get the point
Sv: Are there any problems using N8013 outside US?
Since the US and Algeria may run on different 3G frequencies, you might have problems with the 3G service. I assume that the Note tablet is triple band so 2G won't be an issue, but 3G might be. The 4G or LTE is even worse, in Sweden where I live different phone companies have different frequencies, so if I buy my device from the wrong company it will be pretty much 3G only.

Tethering via wifi
Is this possible on the rom? I tried it just laughed at me and called me fat (well it did not work but hey) Making sure i did not miss something.
Did you try using Barnacle or the Wifi tethering for root users apps previously suggested for people with problematic tethering?
Fixing the built-in wifi tethering is a goal, but one that probably needs wifi itself to properly work first. Or at least, to work without needing to be activated through another script...

[Q] GT-P6810 JB 4.1.2 Stock Rooted MD3 USB Host problem

Just a minor bug I have noticed in this otherwise excellent ROM. It seems that the USB host isn't working correctly on my tab. It constantly disconnects and reconnects both with a USB drive and a mouse. I am using an el cheapo ebay adapter btw. This works fine on stock ICS and PAC. Incidentally, the Samsung keyboard works perfectly but the problem is duplicated when the adapter is plugged in to the keyboard. Another minor bug, (I am sorry of this has been asked before), but 5ghz wifi doesn't seem to work.
Anyone else flashed this and noticed these little bugs? Otherwise, this ROM is cracking, really smooth and even smart stay works!!
Cheers guys,
ATB,
Karlsbug
Still away and not yet able to flash.
What can say is that there are posts regarding 5GHz Wi-Fi band with the P6800 4.1.2 JB. This "bug" is probably related to the firmware itself or modem/region incompatibility. Some have been lucky to fix it with a simple factory reset, others not.
The USB dis/re-connect may be kernel and or mount point related. I don't know for sure until I can test and replicate.

This is what you need in order to cast any screen from your phone even if the phone has a screen mirror option, your tv needs a receiver to do so even a smart tv needs it

Three is a new screen mirroring by using your Chromecast in the latest update, only certain devices will have this capability though. I don't believe our phone was included in that list... Sadly

This. My nexus 7 can but it's sort of laggy when playing video or games.

Here's where I was getting my info from... http://www.droid-life.com/2014/07/0...now-works-for-screen-mirroring-to-chromecast/
There is an app that unlocks Mirroring on the Chromecast for all devices. Unfortunately, even though it is unlocked it doesn't always work. For the S3, it works fine on Touchwiz based ROMS but not on AOSP. The developer is still trying to figure out why it isn't working on all devices/ROMS.
Edit: Oops forgot to include the link!

Totally agree.
Good news however, apparently r3pwn has found a fix to this issue and is working on it now. At some point today we should have a fix!
