I am trying to fix a tablet for my Auntie. It's a Galaxy tab 2 - GT-P5110.
I've tried recovering/resetting it, and despite it completing successfully, it just freezes on the "Enter your name" screen during initial setup.
I would like to try a custom ROM (or an updated original one) could someone point me to a ROM that is simple to use, and as similar to stock as possible?
I've done this a few times over the years on various devices, but I've always followed step-by-step guides.
Many thanks.

Hey there!
If your device were P31xx, you would have one or two stock-based ROMS. But I don't see any for P5110.
How about trying CyanogenMod 11? You could use a theme to make it look like TouchWiz.
If you want to use CM11, here's a link to the latest milestone: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95747613655044317
Also, here's the GApps: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358560841

Hello, I just rooted my Samsung galaxy note 10.1 gt-8013 running jelly bean. for the first time a few days ago. It was the first time I rooted anything. The reason I wanted to root it was pdroid. I have installed 3 or 4 different roms on it trying to get pdroid to work on them with no luck. I have also used the auto patcher like it says to. The tablet says it's installed, and have ran the auto patcher multiple times on each rom. When I look for it in the market it still won't show up. So I'm starting to get a little frustrated because I'm not sure if I'm just not using the auto patcher correctly or if it's just does not work on my table. If anyone knows of a rom that comes with pdroid with it. Or if anyone can point me to a rom and has the patch for pdroid. Any help would be appreciated.

I too hope a dev will one day integrate pdroid, on a multiwindow capable rom, until cm integrates this feature, i guess that means stock roms for now.......either integrate, or build their rom in such a way that is compatible with a pdroid patch .
Over on the official thread, looks like the dev has added stock compatibility, but i suspect its for specific stock roms, could be wrong

I think it was for very specific devices, if i got the gist of it right, i think a dev needs to implement it into a rom specifically for our note 10's
yes,but i've no knowlegde at all for doing this. i was hoping you found something.

I found out something similar to pdroid... it's called XPrivacy and runs on top of the Xposed framework. it needs root but it's pretty straight foward to install and use. it also works for pratically any rom including stock.
you can find the installation/user guide on github https://github.com/M66B/XPrivacy
I'm not 100% sure but there's an article on this on android police. it works like a charm for me (jb 4.1.2 on stock)
hope you find it usefull like i did!!

Thanks Mr, ive actually got it installed already, but others may not know about it, so thanks for that.....brilliant idea.......i recommend to anyone in a similar situation
Hi,
I am xda-developers reader/lurker for years but this is a first time that I am not able to continue without your help.
I just got Note 10.1 and I would like to have pdroid on it. I just tried collective edition ROM and I really like it. What I miss if pdroid.
I could switch to some of CM roms but I would like to keep split screen and other great Note 10.1 specific features.
Any ideas? Thanks.

So far, because of closed source of the kernel or some other things (what I have heard), it's not possible to make a working room with pdroid. I already tried that with... omega rom I think. The autopatcher worked but not pdroid/pdroid2.0 after flashing. It started but crashed by collecting the apps. After some searching I read that s because of the official kernel or touch wiz. Maybe in the future. Meanwhile I am using LDE.
Edit: I also tried openpdroid, but the autopatcher stops because of a missing jpg. Tried to fix it myself, but well... Next git version maybe.
Hello, I just rooted my Galaxy S3 for Verizon for the first time yesterday, therefore I am fairly new to this. After I flashed CM10 using TWRP, my Google apps are gone. I've tried flashing gapps on TWRP but it gives me a message saying "unfortunately, Google Play has stopped working." I know that this is due to the licensing issues and all, so my question is, what ROMS can I flash that has GApps available in it?
Thanks in advance!

To answer your question, any TW based roms will have Gapps with it. So practically any rom in the Verizon Galaxy S III Android Development forum would have it. To your issue, are you sure you flashed the right Gapps version? Just as reference you can get any version from here http://goo.im/gapps I assumed you flashed 10.1 version of CM since they are the latest which you should be using the 20130301 version of Gapps following the table that is on that website.
This might be a stupid question, but where can I find this forum? And yes, I did flash that version of Gapps... And correction; I have the 10.0.0-d2vzw version of CM. Am I supposed to get another version of Gapps? I really like this ROM and I want to try it out for a few weeks until I switch to a new one.

Forum section for us is http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1708 Go there and click on Verizon Galaxy S III Android Development forum. If you look at the website link I gave you, they have a table. On the left, it shows the CM versions and on the right shows the corresponding Gapps version you are suppose to use with that CM version. Since you are using 10.0.0, if you look on the left you will see 10.0.x and on the right, you will see the corresponding gapps version 20121011. You use that version for CM 10. Btw if you find CM 10 interesting go to the Verizon Galaxy S III Original Android Development forum. They have roms based on CM, AOSP, AOKP, etc. Be sure to read up more on flashing since you are pretty new to this. Bricking phones isn't fun lol
What ROMS do you personally recommend? And I know! I almost bricked it yesterday, and trust me, it was not fun at all.

Depends on your preference. If you are into the Stock TouchWiz look but without the bloat that verizon puts, I recommend CleanRom. I also recommend it to people who are new to flashing since it is a pretty simple rom. This rom is pretty much as close as you can get to getting stock reliability. If you want to go into a more customize it yourself TouchWiz roms, I would suggest SynergyROM, Jelly 'Beans' Rom, Hyperdrive, or Axis. Besides each having their own tweaks and sometimes themes, during install, you get to choose which apps/settings/kernel/theme, you want to have, so pretty much you get to customize almost all aspects of the rom to your liking. They all also get updated on a somewhat regular basis. You will have to flash all of them and play with them to see which one is to your liking.
For CM 10.1 based roms, CM 10.1 Nightlies, Slimbean, Carbon Rom. I would be careful with these roms, as they are a bit temperamental with some phones. Most of the time you are fine and you won't get into an issue but the times that you do, you will have to read through the threads to see if there is a solution to it.
There are also the PARANOIDANDROID and ParanoidKANGdroid roms, I haven't personally tried them but heard good things, they are also based on CM 10.1
I really appreciate your help, bro. For now, I'll stick to the CM 10.1 ROM that I just flashed. It's good so far, and I finally got t solve my issue of gapps thanks to you.
Great example of helping someone! Posts like this are the reason why I became a member of this site and fell in love with it (actually my wife calls it addiction)! I wish there were more people helping others like this, it would only make this forum better.

What are you trying to achieve? The stock based ROMs are much more stable than the CM ROMs. There's no need or use to delete things and if you delete too much you will start to cause problems.

I am not aware of any fully functional CM based or other custom ROMs for the P62xx series. The is a CM11 ROM that is a work in progress on the forum. I would install the latest stock 4.1.2 , root and then install a third party launcher , lock screen and other items to make it look the way I want. That will get you a stable, basically custom ROM. I think its unlikely that a stable CM11 will ever appear unless Samsung releases a stock 4.4 from which to build on and CM 10 is now outdated with no developers to support it.
Have you tried the development section.. There are alot of custom roms there.. PAC, Omni to name a few..
Try the Omni4.4.2 it is still in development but it works great and having KitKat on this Tablets is awesome
Guys pardon for my ignorance(im new to this upgrading/flashing thing) but how do you install custom roms?
I'm considering it an option because after i flashed my p6200 with the new jellybean rom via odin, my tablet works until it got battery drained and now stuck on "boot-loop", I've done the CWM wipe/reset data thing but still stuck in that loading screen, I also did try reflashing it with the same jelly bean firmware but still stuck.. I'm thinking installing a custom rom might make it work again..
or if you do have the old honeycomb stock rom for P6200 DXKL2 firmware that i could use via odin.
Try this

does it work for you?
I've downloaded this man.. copied it to my sdcard and then installed it through CWM recovery, now I get to the part where I had to choose stuff, like pre-installment settings like whether to choose "wipe user data" and such, and then install "samsung exclusive?" or "default install" or "remove bloatware", so there after choosing my options it then goes to this page with texts and the android robot at the background, it was so fast that I didn't even get to read what is written, i remember only "wipe?" or sort of, it goes for like a second and then restart back to the
"samsung galaxy tab 7.0 plus" loading screen, it's already been a while and it's still stuck in there, I wonder if that is normal, or again like any other stock rom i've flashed with using (odin method) this is stuck and going nowhere?
help! i wanted to post this at the development thread of this certain rom, but Im not allowed due to having few posts i guess?
and by the way, could someone share a ".pit" file for the p6200, i think it might be helpful for making this tab work again, thanks!

Hi Guys,
I have a Samsung gt n8010. As its original firmware does not work anymore, I need something newer. I don't mind customization or anything else then, that it "works properly" and security.
What do you recommend?
(If you include a how-to or point out to a tutorial, even better )
100% working then standard stock Samsung firmware .

I am using the Linage 16 found on here as my daily ROM. It is stable and it does everything I want it to do. It is slow on my tablet, but it brings me the ability to run the apps I wanted to use. The install instructions are in the first post. Update it using the included updater.
