[Q] CM 11 - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Have anyone build cm 11 stable for galaxy tab 2

Go to Android development and read the CM11 thread. You'll have to decide if you want to try it because it is a "nightly" type release. There is not a "stable" release as of yet. However, I'm using it and so far it is great!

I have been using the CodyF86 KitKat 4.4 rom with TWRP, Expresso kernel, and Tablet UI. Absolutely Awesome. Have no issues. It will take weeks or months to be listed as stable. Do a backup first. Don't fear the beast. LOL:laugh:
I have had about a dozen different roms in mine, this is the best for sure.

The above link is for the 7.0 tab 2. If you have the 10.1 tab 2 you will have to go to the 10.1 android development section and use the CM11 thread. YOU NEED TO READ AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE ABOUT THE INSTALLATION BEFORE you do it. And ALWAYS do a backup first.

Thanks for telling the newz

[FIX] Lag fix for cm10 based roms (cm10, paranoid android, jellybro)

I originally posted this in the Galaxy nexus forums, but its not device specific as far as I know and works on both my nexus 7 and galaxy nexus so I'll post it here. Someone let me know if this works please.
Original Thread: [FIX] Lag fix for cm10 based roms (cm10, paranoid android, jellybro)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1875486
I have a fix for the lagginess in builds from the past week and a half or so. The culprit is the surface flinger library. It is the android compositing system and some changes recently made to it are responsible for the significant lag in recent builds. Most noticeable spot is if you hit the home button if you have the notification drawer down. It becomes extremely laggy without this patch. Scrolling is also less smooth whenever multiple things on the screen are being drawn. This fixes all those issues.
Just flash this in cwm or whatever recovery you choose. Should work on all cm10 builds and cm10 based roms like paranoid android.
Heres a version specifically for the s4 powered samsung galaxy s3.

seems interesting, if i didnt just go back to Sammy I'd try this out
Can someone try this and let me know how it goes?

Time For Some Screenshots Guys..
Very much settings, more than PAC and seems to have all cm10.1 bugs. Successfully flashed cm 10.1 swap file. Theming is only done because of my cm theme. But this rom seems to be a better PAC rom, as i said before in to daily use now and it seems to work flawlessy. Everybody should try this rom and maybe one of our developers can continue the work on it. I am using it with butter kernel 1.2 by Grarak.

Before, it use pacman's framework & settings for the mix rom thing as his mod rom base since JB 4.1, it was all right actually, but later on at JB 4.2 he erased pacman's commit histories in his forked source and claimed it to be his work, and some of the Pac member reported him for stealing someone else work, that is why he and his work were banned in xda.
I hope he is doing it right this time in his new release somewhere else.

[rom][port][mc3 sprint leak][stock rooted premium suite] [4/18/13]

I worked on this port for future upcoming MOAR port. Check out my MOAR Port here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40195123 This is bare bones stock rooted deodex from freeza build I've only ported to Verizon. I have been undecided on if I should release or not. I decided its a very stable leak and its what it is. Stock with premium suite. All goes without saying I'm not responsible for anything you do to your phone if it explodes or just doesn't turn on your in full control of your own stuff.

Just in case anyone is wondering and needs to theme it I can confirm circuitry theme works and j beitel's ultimate real icon theme both worked for me... very smooth ROM and Hitman ported another great release. I went back to MOAR just because of the options. I'm sure Hitman can understand and I'm sure I'll be back when MOAR updates... thanks Hitman! :beer::thumbup:

Are you guys rooted or not? I'm tempted just to go back to untouched stock, as there are still issues here and there with rooted/custom 4.3. The only thing that would bug me would not be not being able to remove bloat. I had tried flashing a custom 4.3 ROM which had the data screen off bug, so then tried going back to 4.2.2 but got a bootloop. Flashed rooted 4.2.2 MGA via Odin and tried flashing custom 4.2.2 again but still got bootloops. So currently on rooted stock 4.2.2 which is working perfectly, so I suppose I should really just sit tight for now.
I've got intelliring installed. Just updated and now I'm having talk back issues again while using stock internet app. Seems fine in chrome.
Any ideas how I can stop it?

I'm running totally stock everything. I think the bloat is all part of having a samsung device. Nexus devices are so plain jayne in comparison, I came from a Nexus 4. I wouldn't get too hung up on it to be honest. I think the S4 is a real solid performing device with stock 4.3.

I'm totally stock too, have been since the most recent 4.2.2 update (since it got secure by knox). Before that I ran djemby's stock rooted ROMs to allow tinkering, but I couldn't be bothered with the flash counter/knox fuse etc. risk of flashing custom ROMs, so I just went stock while I still could.
As for bloat - I can live with it. some of it I actually use, some of it I never touch, but it's on there and its not doing any harm.
4.3 is nice and smooth, my phone is functional. I just have to live without the tinkering - it was minimal but I liked to have the choice... (I only added CRT off, symbols on keyboard, and one or two other bits anyway).

Cheers, I'm in two minds at the moment. I agree that it is a great device and enjoy having the extra features (would just like option to remove some of the apps). To be honest Im not looking to constantly flash a lot of different ROMs, happy with stock if its smooth and stable. I've got a Nexus 7 as well, so it satisfies my 'having the latest update' fix! The rooted apps I would miss would be adaway, multi window manager, root explorer option on file explorer and titanium backup (not much use for this anyway if I'm not flashing). Will think about it a bit more..

I used to run inverted on my S3 all the time because of the battery saving it provided for the amoled display. Since this is a super lcd display, that's a none issue, and I'm trying to run everything white just because I can.
I'm still running stock because it's so quick. On my S3, stock touchwiz was so slow and buggy I had no choice but to install a new rom.
However, there are many more roms available in the international m8 forum correct? Is there a way to tell if they'll work with our phone? Or do they have to say it's specifically compatible with the Verizon variant? The last thing I want to do is flash something and have it missing the CDMA band needed to get data. Also would super CID basically allow flashing of any rom we wanted.

They'll say if they work for Verizon or not. SuperCID would allow you to flash any carrier Rom, but I doubt you would get data or anything, maybe 1x...that's more for like if you want to take your phone to t-mobile then you would be able to flash a tmobile Rom and be good to go (whether you get LTE or not on tmobile is a diff story).

Yup, stock rooted. Love it. I don't usually flash too often anyway. Just want something as stable and bug free as possible. So I'm thinking I'll probably end up running bonestock or cleanrom. I'm also extremely intrigued by the gpe rom.
I'll start flashing soon, but I generally don't like flashing too often.

Are you on the old firmware or radios still? (Which I really hope you say yes as if so you can help out a lot of people by doing me a favor)?.....or have you updated to the new firmware 1.55.....myself I hate pretty much all google apps besides chrome an I don't really care for that just my backup browser so the gpe ROM is very well put together by @digitalhigh . I have flashed it just to see how it ran but google everything an no blinkfeed is a total bust for me..

Plus I ran bonestock for a while at 1st. I have tried all Roms an that is the best stock ROM he has lots of things enabled VZW hides. Only thing he is missing is eps mode but that is so easy to add via XML ...all you need to do its add another line for a quick setting tile like the rest of them an use value 30. Reboot an then your bone stock will have everything you need plus on the house teathering.

Nope, I don't have the original firmware.
I think my sister also updated hers.
Andy has done fantastic work on his roms since his S3 days. He does a great job adding in hidden features and keeping the rom as stock as possible. Really hope he continues developing for this device.

Why would you want to go backwards? Firewater issues?

No a lot of people r asking in my firmware/radios thread I started are asking for old radios cause they were stronger for them. With a pull from a phone that still has this we can make a flashable old radios. An some else wants the old firmware to create another safety net for everyone.

Got it, I think a friend of mine is upgrading soon, if he gets an m8 and it isn't updated out of the box I can pull it from that.
