bliss build sm-t33x - Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

@sub77,
sub hi,
okay, i am currently running my current bliss build for my sm-t330nu,
i have the same problem across the seven builds i have done so far,
the display does not power on after suspend
brightness/screen dimming slider does not function whether adjust through settings or 3rd party media player.
sound events such as touch events for screen tap and keyboard are minimal volume or null.
Media playback across the board is beautiful, wifi and bluetooth are up and to hell with the camera ! :silly:
What controls screen dimming and suspend resume screen functions ?
Is there a commit i should be aware of?
i re sync every build or two since i last spoke with you, so i think it's a problem with my prebuilts.
I am using a combination of blobs from stock and from s3ve3g [resolved media playback, local and network]
but the screen/display issues persist.
thanks,
m
Edit- i have tested with both a standard kernel AND overclocked/undervolted kernel with the same result.

have you checked this:

sub,
hi,
it didn't work, puts tab in bootloop
i'm going to scrap my existing resources and start over.
They're good for cm11, but whatever changes were made in the time i initially synced bliss repo have broken things.

yay
@DUHAsianSKILLZ
screens!

Thanks @moonbutt74! Exactly how I imagined it to look. I'll try and see if I can fix highlight.

Rockbox for Android

Hey everyone!
I couldn't help but notice on the Rockbo homepage (rockbox.org), under unusable ports it has listed Google Android and in this thread: forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=14177.30 the last post says that someone had actually gotten sound to work through Rockbox on a HTC Legend phone:
Hello guys,
I'm right now listening music with my newest music app on my phone:
Rockbox plays music on my HTC legend \o/
The first song was Edward Maya vs Alicia - Stereo Love.
I'm overly happy that I've gotten that far now. I'm looking forward to
finally bring gapless playback, dynamic playlists and an extensive
equalizer (and more) to Android! Although there's a lot of work still to do.
Best regards.

This is rather exciting! I've used Rockbox before on an old iAudio X5 and it was a powerful alternate firmware. Anyways I just wanted to post this here just incase anyone else would be interested.
I found some more information digging around the interwebs. I found a blog from a Rockbox developer who talks about Rockbox as an application and he mentions this achievement and includes a link to the users git repositories for Rockbox on Android. You can read about it here: daniel.haxx.se/blog/2010/07/30/the-rockbox-app-part-ii/
Here's a quote from the blog:
While I’m told the current state is rough and there’s no installer or anything yet, I’m sure I share the view of lots of others that this is a great moment in the Rockbox history. A milestone. Thanks Thomas, I hope your work continues equally good and that we get an app to try out at the end of the summer or so.
Thomas’ git repo is here: h ttp://repo.or.cz/w/kugel-rb.git

Also Rockbox as an application was accepted into Google's Summer of Code program (info here: rockbox.org/wiki/SummerOfCode2010#Rockbox_as_an_Application )
Yeah!!!!!!!! I d like to see rockbox on android, I used it on an ipod mini, and it was really great with a great sound quality
There are no prebuilt apk's yet but you can download the source code and build Rockbox for android.
It works rather well, I'm using it in favor of the stock built in media player on my Legend.

Could you share the apk?
There's a link on the wiki page I created today:

Just out of curiosity, could someone post a screenshot ?

That's probably because the default touchscreen mode is the so called grid mode. In this you navigate with d-pad like controls (the screen is divided into 9 rectangles, top middle is up, down middle is down, center middle is select, etc). You can change it to the absolute point mode in the settings.
This is the best thing to happen to my phone since I bought it!
The only problem is that's it's a bit jumpy from time-to-time, especially if 'multi-tasking.
But generally I'm impressed already. True gapless playback at last! A volume control that doesn't move in HUGE increments (I.E. I can make it really really quite if I'm falling asleep listening to music)
Great stuff!

I assume you have an HTC phone running the official 2.1 ROM?
Those have a bug which causes music to drop out sometimes if the app is in the background/minimized.
Not working for me on Motorola Milestone. This is how it looks like:
Define "Not working". The screen shot looks ok, except the font is too small (the default font should be bigger indeed).
Try loading the cabbiev2 or selecting a bigger font. And also remember what I said about the grid mode on the previous page.
The pre-built APKs are not working for me either. I'm trying this on a Samsung Captivate (Galaxy S) running stock rom. All it shows is the rockbox splash screen and doesn't go from there.
Hi there!!
Neither works on milestone (Personal Argentina's 2.1u1 official rom).
It loads, I can navigate (and configurate the screen) but it won't actually play any file...
BTW, the screen font size and graphics from the original skin has been an issue since I firts got it for my old (from a couple of weeks now) rokr e2...
Impressive!
Installed the 480x800 build on my Milestone (Canada Telus SHOLS_U2_03.11.0) and started experimenting.
Have a few questions:
1. Noted after editing config.cfg (in order to add a WPS file) that my paths were changed from /sdcard/rockbox/ to /data/data/org.rockbox/app_rockbox/.
Is it implicit that /data/data/org.rockbox/app_rockbox/ is the way to point to sdcard?
2. My WPS contains %pc (Current time in track) and %pt (Total track time); the latter is right but the former is always 0 (%px shows 0 too).
3. Maybe silly: I'm able to use the grid to navigate but did not figure out how to exit Rockbox. How to exit?

1) Yes. Rockbox removes the path and looks on the sdcard first so don't worry. In fact, any path will work. In order to remember it over restarts the files the setting point to need to be in /sdcard/rockbox though.
2) Don't know what's wrong there. I can't imagine it's an Android specific issue though.
3) There's also the absolute point mode, you just need to enable it (we didn't get around making it default yet). You don't *exit* Rockbox, you just stop/pause music (stopping will be slightly better for battery life) and leave the app (as with any other app like the built-in media player).
I have installed Rockbox on a HTC Tattoo. Not the most powerful phone out there, I know.
I am also very impressed. I had given up using my phone as a music player. I don't think that any of the apps on the Market are very good. None support gapless or EQ etc., and the format support is also very limited. But now there is hope.
I had to figure out how to use it first, and I found out how in the Rockbox forums. It seems like the UI is working very fine. The only thing is that they don't support the hardware buttons yet.
The music also plays back. But there is one (serious) problem: the playback stutters once in a while. It may be the same problem as reported above with HTC phones. So it is not quite usable yet. But they are definately on the way. These are early days, and the app isn't even downloadable from their web-pages yet, so I didn't excpect this much.
Update.
Fussing around with settings, noted (just once) that %pc (Current rack time) was working as it should; however, it subsequently displayed as 0 (as before) even though I modified nothing.
Another point: it seems that settings from tagnavi_custom.config aren't working.
On some occasions music did not play at all; display sometimes reverted to the very tiny initial default and it was not possible to select a font from the menu, among other menu navigation problems.
Despite those gripes, I noted no jumps while playing; in this respect, it's better than either andLess and AMPlayer, which I've been trying to play FLAC files.
Will stay attuned; am very glad that Rockbox as an app is being ported to Android and is already useable.

About the NEXUS MV ICS ROM and GLaDOS Kernel...

Hi,
Since I'm not yet able to post directly into the main thread, I'll post some opinions and experiences here.
The original Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364411
Current setup:
ROM: NEXUS MV 2.12.25
Kernel: GLaDOS 2.5 CFS - 3.0.8
So far, great ROM at all.
No reboots, no crashing apps...
But there are some things a bit annoying:
- On the NSTools, the "backlight dimmer" function only disables the capacitive buttons after the selected time, doesn't change anything in the display (I really don't know if it's a bug or not);
- Most of the times (not always) when I press the button to lock screen, after the animation the screen "flashes" and only after that I hear the "click" sound, but I think it's more a kernel issue than a ROM issue;
- The Assasin's Creed Revelations Game doesn't load the Main Menu completely, only the title appears and I can't select anything. I've reinstalled it and the problem still occurs, but I don't know if it's a ROM problem or some crazy incompatibility.
And also I'd like to send my suggestions:
- I've used another ROM (wich I really don't remember exactly what was) with a launcher where there was an option to prevent the apps menu to slide into the widgets, it would be nice to have it here too... (don't know if it can be implemented on ROM or only on the Launcher)
- I miss an option to enable/disable 3G data connection on the top menu of the slider, like CM7.
I can't think on any other thing to add for now...
The ROM is really fast and stable, thumbs up to MarkVis
Keep the good work!
I've noticed some serious problems after updated to NovaLauncher beta 7. Whatsapp hangs many times during use and system says "low RAM" when I try to send pictures via whatsapp.
I've changed back to beta 5 and still had some hangs and crashes.
I really don't know what's the relation between Nova Launcher and Whatsapp, but I'll try the new GLaDOS v.2.8 to see if I have any changes.

please be aware that i only tested this file on the OTA 4.0.3 IML74K Rom!
just Flash from recovery!
any other rom on the same base could work with this zip file, but i don't assist in repairing any other roms!
To get the original framework-res file from your Rom back just extract the framework-res.apk file from the original rom zip and replace the one in my uploaded package!

I've tried it with various versions of GLaDOS kernel and MV ROMs and it doesn't work, my phone hangs at initialization and keep on an infinite loop.
Also doesn't work with AOSP+ ROM, same infinite loop...

This is the intended functionality, to turn off the capacitive buttons LEDs off, not the backlight/SAMOLED for the whole display
- Most of the times (not always) when I press the button to lock screen, after the animation the screen "flashes" and only after that I hear the "click" sound, but I think it's more a kernel issue than a ROM issue;
Common problem with the brief flash while locking, most people have it and i'd imagine some a bit worse than others. The click and similar sounds on my Nexus S have always lagged to some extent, nothing has changed for me (though i turn all of this off anyway).
- The Assasin's Creed Revelations Game doesn't load the Main Menu completely, only the title appears and I can't select anything. I've reinstalled it and the problem still occurs, but I don't know if it's a ROM problem or some crazy incompatibility.
Lots of apps are still not updated (or won't be updated) for ICS, something which we may have little to no control over. This sounds like one such issue.
And also I'd like to send my suggestions:
- I've used another ROM (wich I really don't remember exactly what was) with a launcher where there was an option to prevent the apps menu to slide into the widgets, it would be nice to have it here too... (don't know if it can be implemented on ROM or only on the Launcher)
Pretty sure some launcher replacement apps can do that, and roms like CM9 alpha probably offer this.
- I miss an option to enable/disable 3G data connection on the top menu of the slider, like CM7.
Extended Controls and Widgetsoid provide this functionality in nearly the same way as CM7/CM9
I can't think on any other thing to add for now...

Guess those ROMs have some modifications which break that stock framework file, the same one works perfectly on my stock ICS. I'm sure the updated file will be added into some ROMs as standard soon.

Yeah, I've noticed some things of your answer after a good time reading... hehehe
And at some part of the main threads (need to search again), somebody posted about how to end the screen flash after pressing the lock button, I've just didn't tested yet.
But thanks for the reply, I keep reading the threads and testing almost every new ROMs released to see if the deep idle correction is already implemented or not hehehe
That's just a bluetooth fix though, if you turn bluetooth off deepidle should work perfectly fine. This would only really be a problem for you if you use a bluetooth earpiece, headset or car loudspeaker.
I always keep bluetooth and gps disabled unless I need them, but even this way I only got the TOP=ON deep idle, not TOP=OFF.
That's why I was trying that fix
I'm starting to think that's the GTalk's camera thing...

[BUG Report] GT-I9100 Dialer isnt correctly working / AOSP Camera Bug

Hey,
I didnt know where i should Post my Bug Report so if its the wrong section dont hold back to tell me.
I'm currently using my Galaxy S2 for daily use and after flashing some Kitkat Roms Omni is in my opinion the most stable rom and with Nova + ART a damn fast Rom, so thank you very much for supporting my Device.
I dont know whats happening the last weeks but it all began with an Opendelta Issue, i wiped all Data / Factory Reset via TWRP and flashed the Rom completely new and OpenDelta still didnt work, it just said every day its all up2date. Now after a couple of days it is working again, dont know if it was a Server Issue or something else - at the official Omni Page no one post News so i have always to guess whats happening
Currently i found 2 Bugs, if you want to call someone you open up the Dialer and then the Button for the Numbers but after clicking it, theres nothing(Screenshot is attached). You have to go back and try it again then the Numbers are there. The second Problem is that there is no Zoom in the AOSP Camera App if you record a Video. My currently workaround is the Google Camera App, there all is working fine. Also there are some Issues with Apollo , freezing , doesnt update the Song DB etc. , dont know why its so popular - its horrible. Replaced it also with a 3rd party App - Omich/Rocket Player.
The last Problem is that not everywhere in the Settings the correct language is used, if you need some translation help im sure many users would like to help(including me) but that is in my opinion nothing critical .
...and sorry if my Text was hard to read, its not my native language but im working on it :silly:
Regards
Per the FAQ, this is not the place to put bug reports.
However, I9100 hasn't been maintained in a long time, so filing a bug report will be a waste of time. Support for this device is currently going to be dropped with Android 5.0, and if it receives 4.4 bugfixes, that'll have to come from a new maintainer as none of the former maintainers have time/motivation for the Exynos 4210 devices these days.
Some of the issues you describe with Apollo aren't Apollo issues, but the result of a very deep-down core bug that has a side effect of screwing up storage access. This bug has been known for nearly a year (there's a big thread disucssing it somewhere around here...) and still no one has found a fix for the root cause. In fact, it's one of the #1 reasons the device is getting dropped for L. (It will absolutely not receive nightlies unless someone finds and corrects the root cause.)
Hey,
Thank you for your response. :good:
I reported the Bug on jira and there is a workaround for the Dialer Bug: Setting The Animator Scale higher than 0.
The Drivers are the problem right?

Well, there are three things you listed:
1) Dialer stuff - probably some sort of odd HDPI issue and/or graphics subsystem stuff. The Exynos4 graphics subsystem is why many developers don't want to ever touch the platform again.
2) Zoom in video - What resolution was Google Camera? Zoom has NEVER been available for 1080p resolutions on the Exynos 4210 family, not even stock firmware will zoom in 1080p
3) The storage issues are a symptom of a deep-down kernel bug that no one has found the root cause of. This is the #1 reason the device is getting dropped for 5.0 - there is no chance even if a new maintainer steps up that nightlies will resume until someone tracks down the root cause of this one. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2612329 has more discussion (warning: It's long...)

It should just work (Internet, Phone, SD Card, sensors, etc.) - the camera had some colors off last time I built one,

@CTXz has done a great job of squaring the sources for Cyanogenmod the, the repo is Sony Kitakami Platform Developer Organization A straight run of a build @ branch cm-13.0 should result in the following:
On my current build for the Z5P, @KbaB.BroS confirmed nfc and communications functional.
Bluetooth file transfer is working through cm filemanager send function, but legacy bluetooth apps may fail.
Media Playback, seems square, though access the microphone for audio recording is no go, though mic working in-call.
Camera is janky, and record function broken so screen record fails.
With the current state of Cyanogenmod, OpenGapps is working, Though due to mic issue OK Google crashes.
Rotation sensors are working, yay games.
Brightness is twitchy/dark, needs work.
CTXz, says omnirom has the storage issue sorted for exfat cards so i'm looking at vold to see if i can get it working.
Note: in house root is a bit twitchy, while system-less root is cool, i would recommend going the "traditional" route, BETA-SuperSU-v2.52
does well.
Trebuchet has issues when laying out wallpaper from gallery, Nova Launcher does not, so it's a problem with trebuchet.

[ROM][UNOFFICIAL][10] LineageOS 17.1 for Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 WiFi (SM-T800 - chagallwifi)

Hello owners of Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 WiFi (chagallwifi) SM-800,
Let's save some more devices from the garbage. Here is a build for LineageOS 17.1 for SM-T800 (tested only on this device).
Tested and working so far
Wifi.
Camera (front and back).
Location.
Touchscreen.
All other sensors.
I am not aware of anything broken.
This is a plain build of LineageOS 17.1, with only minimal SELinux policy modifications to make the device work.
If you prefer to use OpenGApps, download signed-ota_update-plain.zip, if you care more about privacy and prefer a degoogled version, download signed-ota_update-microg.zip which has microG bundled in it.
Special thanks to owners of:
LineageOS: https://github.com/LineageOS
Exynos5420: https://github.com/exynos5420
Kernel source.
microG: https://github.com/microg
Guide to building LineageOS with microG: https://gist.github.com/dic1911/407184ee427c50ad0066af643a20254f

You are welcome
Great news, thanks!
Could you please clarify what you wrote about SELinux? Is it active and enforcing? Is encryption supported?

SELinux is active and enforcing, the modifications are because the default SELinux policies in LineageOS contradict with those of the device (probably because the device ones are few years old). The modifications are to remove some strict policies that would break device drivers like the camera and sensors if left enabled.
Encryption is disabled.

It's great that SELinux is on, and it is expected to have minor cuts in the policies. They are a pain to develop. It has to be a separate project...
What's going on with encryption? Forgive me for a silly question, I just see this feature missing in LOS17 ROMs for other devices as well... Is it something LOS specific?

Fair point - it has to be running at all before looking at the advanced features. For the first release it's quite a remarkable result. It would be nice to have encryption on the to do list...
Another silly question: the speakers of this tablet are not very loud. Is it difficult/possible to boost their volume a little?
Will test this out. I had flashed LOS17.1 by @8224Freak, but its SELinux is disabled. Will see if this one works same or better. Does this build contains the most recent security patch?
@minashokry thanks for the build. Camera only works with picture taking. It freezes when video recording is ended.
​
@minashokry I have been using your build on my T800 and likes it a lot. In addition to the camera video recording freeze, mic does not appear to work well. I tried some audio recordings but only hear tiny sound during playback. I was wondering if you are planning on updating the build once awhile to at least include new security patch., or this is it - no more update? Thanks again for build this smooth LOS17 rom for the old tablet.

Bump
Unfortunately did not get very far using either of these builds (plain or microG). In both cases, I'm unable to read or write to the internal storage on the tablet. File manager does not read any contents of the internal storage, fails to create a directory in internal storage, and can't download/save a file from the internet. The LOS 17.1 by @8224Freak does not have this problem, so assume it's something unique to these builds.
I also found that when I formatted an SD card for use as tablet storage (i.e., as an extension of the internal storage), it insists that the card is not inserted every time I power on the tablet. If I eject and reinsert the card while still powered on (no power cycle) it recognizes it and is okay from there.
Don't know if this is related to the above, but the native camera app insists that I must "Insert an SD card before using the camera" even though an SD card is plainly inserted and recognized by the rest of the system.

Honestly I don't know about encryption. I didn't care about it while building this image.

Hello. I've tested your ROM just out of curiosity -- encryption works! This makes your ROM the leader in security! Well done, thanks!
Apart from this... I found a fault with video rendering. At some resolutions the video renders at a wrong scale, larger than the window or the screen. This happens with different websites. I am using Brave browser, which works fine on the same device with LOS-14.1. The same rendering problem is evident in the other LOS-17.1 ROM as well (by 8224Freak). It might be codec related.
Has anyone found a way of dealing with the video rendering fault in Brave/Chrome/Firefox?
What is the link to download this rom? I can't find it anywhere in this thread.

Use the attachments to the first post "signed-ota...zip".
Thank you. Due to the file name I mistakenly thought it was just an update for the rom, not the rom itself.
Tried this ROM again (signed-ota_update-plain.zip), different screen resolutions, different screen densities - still video playback issues in browsers including Brave. The fault manifests itself as the video being zoomed in, so that only a part of it remains visible. The playback freezes for a fraction of a second occasionally, producing a "metal" screeching sound while doing it. In general this ROM feels a bit laggy. So, going back to lineage-14.1-20220107-UNOFFICIAL-chagallwifi, which feels cleaner, much faster and similar to this one has SELinux+encryption working.
Before anyone asked, the same video playback issues just without freezing I observed in lineage-17.1-20220504-UNOFFICIAL-chagallwifi, which is under active development now. The latter does not have SELinux+encryption though.
So, for now, the benchmark is set by DarkExistence for this device.

Just tried this rom, I'm pretty sure the hitching and video playback issues are because the gpu is sitting at 0% utilisation so it's using the cpu for rendering... which would explain things
I downloaded and installed "signed-ota_update-plain.zip". But Google account is not added. There is no Google Play. Thank you to those who will help.
I installed Gapps and OK.

Did you install Gapps or its equivalents?
