Hey guys,
Lately the Stock ROM is annoying me, I'm planning on flashing it to a custom ROM - I don't see gingerbread anywhere so I thought why not !
Also, my tab was rooted until something happened and I had to reset it to factory settings, most of the apps (that need root access) work, but titanium backup claims it fails to achieve root.
So Should I re root my tab before flashing a custom ROM?
and of course the question I asked in the title - what would you'll recommend for a custom rom on a GSM tab (I was thinkin overcome)
Cheers
Jackie
Go for overcome rom, works like a charm for me

I'd also reccomend Overcome. Best rom out there IMHO. Until we get data on honeycomb anyway

I also recommend Overcome. It's been brilliant so far.

Sweet, thanks a lot guys.
But can anyome tell me a sure **** way of know if it still has root, because some apps like screen density and market enabler work but titanium backup says "could not gain root" :/

Probably because you mis-pressed the allow button in superuser when first launching titanium.
launch superuser and remove teh titanium entry and next time you load it will ask for su rights again.
Definetly overcome!

I second that. Alterbridge is a first class developer.
And I really miss Rotohammer too.
Thank you very much everyone, I'm thinking I'll get rid of unwanted stuff on my internal SD before I start it - as I found out that conversion to ext4 takes a while - so I'll save time that way also - hopefully if time permits, I'll be flashing my tab soon
Also does anyone know if i could some how get the gingerbread framework to work with the galaxy tab on overcome?

I think its better you hold out at the moment till someone ports it over to the WiFi version
Well its a good idea. Am empty SD card conversion takes 2 minutes. Full one can take upto 20 LOL. Not that I encourage everyone to wipe their cards. I flashed overcome when my tab was fairly new so I had no problems wiping it.
sweet, thanks for the info, also when the ext4 is being converted, is there a progress bar or status? I get paranoid at times when I don't see any progress

Just make a backup and try it, if something isn't right afterward just restore your backup.
Thanks for the link, I flashed it and do notice some improvement
Tried to flash this on my stock 6.2.2 KF and was unsuccessful. Is it only compatible with cooked gingerbread ROMs? Thx for your help in advance.

Not sure how people are making this work for KF. Tried several times through twrp and it didn't install. Did the manual push, which lead to my device getting bricked. I think I'm gonna stay away for now till the kinks get ironed out unless anyone with a KF can help me successfully install.

Yes. I believe the thread said it was for Gingerbread only, but some ICS folks had luck. I do not think there was any talk of the stock KF firmware, nor was it designed to install correctly on that firmware.
On a side note, it does not really install correctly on anything, must people just thought they heard a difference unless they went through the manual installation process.

Yeah when I read the original thread, it just listed GB ROMs as compatible and so it installed fine on my infuse 4G. Since I already was running voodoo sound on my infuse, couldn't be sure on whether the sound is really all the way different, but some songs and their bass sound a little clearer than before.

Didn't work for me on a newly rooted EVO 4G with CWM & everything else stock. It looked like it ran, gave a bunch of successful messages, but then just sat there for an hour with the "start backup" button greyed out until I closed it. Did you have to update or install anything new to make it work?
Thanks.
No,I just installed it and ran it,I didn't have any issues.If you are having problems,go to that link I posted,to report bugs and ask any questions you might have to the developer.Thanks guys.

Yeah I used apps2sd for a bit to try it out. I could move most apps but some would not work. However your ABSOLUTE BEST option in this regard would be to use data2sd. This moves the entire /data partition to a class 10 SD card. So all your apps will be installed there. This gives a MASSIVE I/O boost. I think you will like how fast your tablet is after enabling data2sd.

Haha nooooo it is a kernel tweak. The easiest way is to flash a kernel that has it included. You also will need a partitioning software on your computer to partition your SD card. This isn't a simple, install an app and enable something. That being said, its not that complicated. Although, I don't think its working quite right on 4.2.1 right now, as kernels are still relatively new. But if you are on 4.1.1 (or downgrade) there are multiple kernels that have it.
Edit: here is the thread with a guide (its for tf700 but its the same process, just use the right kernels) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1962507
And here is a link to a stock kernel with the data2sd patch enabled. Remember this is for 4.1.1 boot loader and you must complete above guide first to format your card.
http://d-h.st/IBm
Also, all this info is in the CROMI 2.x thread.
None of this is mine. I just posted the relevant links. All thanks for creation go to the original threads

Yes this app works great, you can move apps to the primary partition(FAT) of your sdcard, or you can sym link them to an EXT partition, so they are on your SDcard, but android doesn't know they are, so you can still create widgets from the apps.
I use this on my razr maxx and my TF300t.

Best i can remember:
Open the app
Grant super user permissions
Let it install a script
Reboot(dont remember if it asks you to reboot or not, but i had to reboot in order for it to work
After the reboot, open the app, and long press on any non system app and select link to sym link to the EXT partition, or select move to move the app to SD(native android method).
Nope...nothing has worked.

Bro data2sd is being implemented in 4.2... check CROMI-X thread. This is exactly what your looking for and it will remove the crappy I/O limitations of asus's crap hardware. This will speed up your tab. At least look into it man. All you need to do is partition your SD card with gparted then flash a data2sd kernel and boom. Your entire /data partition is moved to your SD card so ALLLL apps can be installed there AND save their data there.
EDIT just saw that your still locked... SORRY! Above info requires unlocked bootloader. =( but if you want the most out of this tab I recommend unlocking and flashing some better firmware. Stock speeds are just so miserable IMHO...
Looks like I'll have to jump that direction...just see so many posts of bricked tabs freaks me out..haha

Hey man, I believe in you haha. But most bricks recently were caused by updating to 4.2. Since your already on 4.2, you only have to unlock and flash recovery via fast boot. JUST MAKE SURE YOU FLASH THE CORRECT RECOVERY. there is a very specific version on twrp for 4.2. Many people have bricked by foolishly flashing the 4.1.1 twrp. As long as you have the correct twrp, and dont do anything foolish you won't be in any danger.
This guide has instructions AND the correct version of twrp

do you mean LINK2SD ? Yes im using it its cool ! you weren't only move the apps to SDCard but you can link the file to save more internal memory but before u use this app you must partition ur sdcard first and its easy just use " MiniTool Partition Wizard 7 "

Yes this is a viable option if you wish to remain locked. Also you can Use the guide for data2sd to partition your SD card (if you wish) cuz its the same exact process. However you will not be able to move your /data partition like with data2sd. If your just trying to save space on internal storage, link2sd should suite your needs just fine. Ide say try link2sd first, then if your unsatisfied, all you have to do is unlock and flash a kernel with data2sd cause your SD card will already be partitioned!!! You've got nothing to loose with link2sd so might as well start there. =)

So I got Link2SD working - cool! :good: saved me about 1GB +
Now..my other problem and I don't really know where to go with one...
It says my SYSTEM storage is at 4% LEFT..that's all. It wont even allow me to update an app because it says insufficient memory available.
So does this mean end of the line for it and its time go unlock and go custom?? Any other suggestions or ides?

Excellent, glad to here you got it working. I find apps that I move to my SDcard also run much faster because the SDcard is so much faster than the internal memory.
As for your system, this is nothing to worry about. The system partition is READ ONLY. The main components of the rom are stored there, and nothing is added or taken away from this partition unless you are wiping or flashing roms.
Short answer, it will never move from 4%, up or down, even if you installed 100 apps, or uninstalled very thing you have. When you install apps, uninstall them, or move them to SD, you will be effecting the DATA partition.
Hope this helps.
Excellent explanation thank you! I'm actually leaning towards unlocking and going with Cromi-X as Mark suggested...I'm thinking the Data2SD will give me more of what I truly need...and that seems to be I need more space for all the apps installed.

Yeah, I'm running into the same problem.
What Rom are you running, and does it only happen under certain conditions?
I'm running
LiquidSmooth Rom (4.2.2 - It seems super stable, only 2 total problems with it)
CodeFireX .62 or .64, I don't remember
NOS Tweak Package v0.4.5_r1 (was having same problems before this; it actually improved my battery life somehow )
HTC MyTouch 4g/Glacier (Obviously, since I'm posting here, but I figured I'd say so just in case)
Anyways, the problem I'm running into is that I can't get the backlight to stay off after locking the phone.
I lock it, then after ~7seconds the backlight comes back on.
Also, this has happened on each 4.2.x rom I've tried
I read somewhere that messing with the settings/app killers can help, but no change from that. I've also tried setting my backlight to all the way off, as well as full, and the brightness doesn't change while the screen is off.
I can try to make a LogCat of it later, though.

Ehh, I am too really - everyone's gotta start somewhere though!
Anyways, what it means is that you can't just take the nos_whatever.zip file and flash it from the recovery, you have to actually open the app called Terminal Emulator (can be found on the market, needs root) and install it from there.
The instructions on how are all in the readme inside the .zip file, just follow those and you'll be fine.

I was having the same 2 issues beforehand (Backlight coming on while the phone is locked, and cell signal dropping after I miss a call until I turn airplane mode on->off)
Also, I noticed that at least in my case my phone seems much less likely to turn the backlight back on if I'm not doing anything in the background such as listening to music. I'm pretty sure that's only been working today though, not sure why...

Hmm, it looks interesting - and having a touch recovery would help remove a major pain in the rear - but I'm completely broke and I can't seem to find the list of differences between the paid controller version and the free updater; would you still recommend the free version?
Yeah I'm using the free version.....PS put the name.apk into Google and u get any app

I'll be getting a little bit of money soon, so I'll just buy it when that comes in.
Anyways, I just did a full system wipe (each of CWM's wipes, as well as the DarkUnicorn wipe script ((since it was on my SdCard already)) but I'm still having the backlight issue.
Haven't even installed a single app yet; still trying to connect to the store to get TitaniumBackup.
Any other ideas?
PS) Still planning on making a LogCat, not sure if it'll help though

What Kernal are you using, the default?
Yeah default

NOS won't boot up or your phone won't?

Also, back on the topic of this thread, are there any fixes for 4.2 roms turning the backlight back on after being locked?
It's a huge battery drain, and my biggest problem at the moment; any ideas would be most appreciated
lol actually I found out the problem. After I extracted it, ES File Explorer made a folder on my sdcard called "sdcard" with the install file in it. And I was stupid and ignored the fact that it should be on the root of the sdcard. Whoops lol.

Well at least it was an easy fix once you figured it out!
Anyways, I'm still having problems with the backlight staying on, but I should be able to provide that LogCat today at some point.
