DISCLAIMER: You know the drill, I am not responsible if loading this rom makes your Tab melt, explode, disintegrate, or cause harm to anyone near it. (I am fairly certain none of that will happen though )

Welcome to The Overcome Experience - 10.1 Edition . For those of you that don’t know me, let me introduce myself. I am AlterBridge86, the creator of The Overcome Experience. I started developing a ROM on the OG Galaxy Tab (P1000) about 9 months ago and have moved on to having my own brand of ROM’s, Kernels, and Recoverys. The Galaxy Tab 10.1 (P75xx) is the second device now to get a “Overcome Series” ROM, however it will most definitely not be the last.
My mission is simple. I aim to vastly improve the stock user experience on Samsung devices. I think that Samsung makes fantastic hardware, however fails to bring the same level of software quality to their devices. This is where I step in. I take the base rom, as provided by Samsung, and perform further optimization and modification to it. My mods aim not to completely customize the user interface, but rather add some very useful key functionality while retaining the “stock android” look.

However, if you wish to attempt a non-wipe install (ONLY for users already on Overcome), follow these instructions: Prior to rebooting into recovery for install, go into Manage Apps and clear data on launcher. Immediately reboot into recovery using the power menu - DO NOT go back ot the home screen first. Install zip without data wipe. After install completes, wipe cache. Reboot.
If you do NOT have CWM on your device already or you want to start completely fresh, I STRONGLY urge you to read the excellent guide that we have put together to get Overcome installed

At long last, Android 3.2 has come to the Galaxy Tab 10.1. Version 2.0 of the Overcome 10.1 Series ROM marks the first release of the rom based on Android 3.2.
For the P7500, the base was graciously provided to us by brucewein and advocator, as well as the country of Israel. That said, this version unfortunately lacks a lot of locales. In it you will find English, Russian, Hebrew, Arabic, and Korean – no more, no less. Hopefully sometime in the near future we get a release from Europe/Asia that will feature many more locales.
For the P7510, we have the now infamous UEKMM build, the “official” US release that was yanked. Despite the reports of it breaking wifi, I have had no issues of the sort and the rom works spectacularly.I suspect that Samsung’s issue is not related to the ROM itself, but the delivery mechanism and/or installation.
On to features in this release – well, the most obvious is Android 3.2 But there are a lot more niceties to be found. I am proud to tell you all that this rom now features the stock Launcher, Browser, Gmail, and Email apps found in Android 3.2.2 (from Xoom). ALL the 3.2.2 apps are phenomenal performers and make the experience on this device the smoothest I have ever seen it.
Along with those apps, I have brought an oft requested feature over from the stock HC experience – it’s animations. The screen animations are now 100% identical to stock Honeycomb and honestly provide a much cleaner, crisper experience. Most all other features have been carried over from previous ROM’s, with the exception of two (that I can think of).
First, for the P7500 folks, there is unfortunately NO extended power menu at this time. The smali code is COMPLETELY different than what it was in 3.1, and even the US version of 3.2 for that matter. I spent many hours trying to make it work with no success. I will of course continue to try to get it working for you all, but to be perfectly honest I think a Euro/Asian release may beat me to it. Secondly, also related to the power menu mod, for the P7510 folks the status bar hide functionality is not yet implemented. I didn’t get to spend a whole lot of time on it, so i’m sure it can be done, I just need to sit down and really dig into it. For the time being however, you WILL have extended power menu (reboot,recovery,download) but will just missing the status bar hide button.
With that said, I’m not going to hold you up any longer and I suggest you all head over to the downloads and enjoy!
EDIT: One more note - it seems the website and its downloads are sucking pretty hard...I apologize for that. Please use the multiupload links in the first post for downloading if you are unable to get through on the website downloads (or they're crawling)

There is, but Samsung being Samsung, can't leave well enough alone and had to put their own spin on it. It's extremely exaggerated in Samsung's version, as opposed to stock HC where it is significantly more subtle.
Wow - sounds fantastic. Thanks for all your hard work. Can't wait to get home and try flashing this one!
One quick question: was there any reason you replaced the stock email/browser/gmail apps but not the calendar/contact apps? My pet hate with the 10.1 is the ugliness that is samsung's touchwiz calendar.

I replaced the Calendar and it worked, but I didn't know which people would prefer as there is a stark difference lol...i figured i'd leave that one alone. The other apps pretty much look the same, but perform better
Contacts on the other hand wasn't having it at all, but admittedly I didn't spend too much time trying to finagel it in. Maybe in a future release if there is enough requests we'll switch to stock Calendar/Contacts

The Browser one is still exaggerated for some reason, i suspect they are being controlled by different sources (again...samsung ugh) but around the settings and stuff it is not as bad as it was

Ok, thanks for the explanation. My preference is definitely toward the stock app , since the week view layout is much more practical (including zooming in/out ability). You can see the difference here:

compared to:

Same deal with the month view:

compared to:

The stock app is just so much more usable!
thanks for all your hard work: lots of enthusiasm for 3.2 and the Overcome version.
Downloaded and installing as of now...
Just rooted after having this thing for a month, I cant believe i waited that long. Anyway going to give this one a shot and see how it goes.
Well, just flashed 2.0 over the previous version and I'm getting launcher and exchange services fc's. Thought it might be a bad flash so I wiped the dalvik and flashed again to no avail. Fixing permissions in recovery also has no effect. Yes I flashed the version appropriate to my device (7510). Any suggestions besides starting over from stock?

1 rule i learnt from flashing since g-d knows when. A clean wipe is the best way to get a rom working right. if you are having FC clean install is your best option. I would recommend an app called appextractor it works great on restoring apps from your nandroid backups.

Yeah you should do a full wipe. Wipe data, cache, and dalvik.

Like others suggested you will unfortunately need to do a full wipe...I should have mentioned that in the first post..I'll edit it now.
Missed the old non-TW HC . . Glad I decided to come back to it
Very well done Thanks!!
Install Instructions
If you have some form of CWM on your device already, simply download the ROM, and install zip through CWM. Be sure to wipe data to ensure a clean install. DATA WIPE IS NECESSARY FOR V2.0.0!!
If you do NOT have CWM on your device already or you want to start completely fresh, I STRONGLY urge you to read the excellent guide that we have put together to get Overcome installed
Do you mean wipe data/factory reset or wipe cache partition?

I am so surprised nobody has not yet mentioned this rom yet. I've been following it closely through the night and it blows away all other roms when it comes to speed and responsiveness. Here is all necessary information, links install instructions-

I wanted to port the ROM to DX so here it is. Drod2169 and myself ported the ROM and he did the testing since I do not have a DX. I would very much like one so I can continue this project so if you would like to donate to project you may do so by clicking HERE.
I want to thank Drod2169 very much for doing this with me. It was a pleasure working with you and good luck!
All 3 of us created this together and it will turn in to Drod's rubiX ROM and hope he stays with the Fission team
This is the first preview build so expect some bugs. Please post all bugs in the thread in a clear manner so we can get them resolved quickly.
Themers, do not create themes for this ROM yet since it will go many changes until final release. 99% of the packages are Vanilla Android builds so most of your themed APK files will work. I suggest to wait until we get to final release before you start. The basic stuff should remain the same and we will update a list of packages that will change so you can get your themes ready.
Users, DO NOT use ANY themes yet.
You MUST follow all install instructions.
BACKUP your phone using Bootstrap before installing any ROMs so you can go back to your current setup if anything fails.

I think I'll wait for the next release to fix the bugs they've found but it looks really promising and I can't wait to try it.
@gimp you just stated this morning that rubix will never be blurless because they base their work off the OTA.....
Notice in that thread that this rom WILL BE LABELED AS RUBIX.
it also states it is completely blurless.
Sh#$ changes every minute, shouldnt ever say something cannot be. Odds are there is always a way it can.

RubiX rom is done by Drod2169, Fission came out by AngDroid. AngDroid handed it over to Drod2169 to turn into RubiX, cause RubiX was trying be a AOSP.
Not sure if it makes sense. AngDroid need Droid X testers and Drod2169 took over testing for it. Basically working with the Fission team. Fission is basically for Droid 2. Fission for X will be new RubiX, I believe. somebody correct me if i'm wrong.

I mentioned that i was unsure how it could be aosp as it was still based on the ota. That post was of course made before i read that the rom would be rebased. This is still not a complete aosp build as the bits that cannot be changed due to the locked down bootloader such as the kernel will remain ota based. This is still a remarkable acheivment. Forgive grammatical errors, on droid getting my haircut.
On this rom, If I text over 160 chars, every other letter shows up as a ? mark. lmao, kinda funny. Looks like this...
H?e?y? B?u?d?d?y? W?h?a?t?s U?p?

I'm with ya on that. Seems like there are a few minor bugs and I'm happy with ApeX right meow so I'm sticking with that for the time being. As soon as the calendar gets fixed on this, I'll probably be loading it up and giving it a shot. I think an update is coming up so I'll see how it goes then.
Thanks gimpeh! I totally missed this one but will give it a try tonight.
From drod2169's updated post a little earlier today...
Known bugs so far:
Dialer looks weird with incoming calls
Facebook contact package not installed
Calendar (fixed, update tonight)
Lock screen tabs off center
Camera res
3D Gallery no hdmi out
Stock lockscreen tabs (fixed, update tonight)
I took the plunge and installed the rom finally. Pretty damn good and surprisingly blur-less. Not a hint of framework. Color me surprised.
was the update released?
Update hasn't been released yet....
But it fixes most all the issues and is stable and fast...been testing it all day and is great..
This being an frf91 rom will that open up more theme options?

Been running the unpatched beta since last night, installed all my apps and Blackmodz Returns to get rid of the white status bar (ugh), and it's pretty amazing stuff. Over 250MB available memory when first booted. Under applications/running services shows Other: 50MB in 3.... Avail: 251MB + 86MB in 22. Nice!

CM7.1 Nightlies
A friendly reminder from slayher:
"Everyone needs to remember that the CM team has made no releases yet. It's labeled RC0, and new code is going in everyday. Sometimes things are going to break, sometimes features are going to be removed, then added, then removed, then added back. Sometimes regular apps may just not work (adfree) because this a new version of android using new and updated API's. Keep that in mind. To the CM team, you are flashing ALPHA software. Not beta, not a Release Candidate.
Just to restate some stuff to the people who didn't read the entire Crackflashers' Thread.
This kernel has been patched with a backport of the .35 kernel in order for USB tethering and mounting to work. Flash a different kernel, and those features break. Period.
Second, the kernel that is provided is what we have found to be the most capable, but most stable kernel for the most people. We are not using highly customized kernels with every acronym you can think of because we are going for maximum compatibility.
Third, make sure you have updated HBOOT (.92), radio images (2.15 series). The newer seem to be working much better.
Fourth, if you hate this and think it's slow, great, don't use it. If you love it, and think it's the best thing to happen to your phone, great, use it. The point here is choice, run what ROM has the features and speed you want. If you want these features, but something isn't working for you, ask for help from others running the ROM. And don't forget it's still ALPHA."

FAQ
Q: What's the ETA on....about how long till...when can I expect....?
A: The only rule of CyanogenMod: You don't ask for ETAs.
Q: Now that the Ice Cream Sandwich SDK has dropped, we're getting a port, right?!
A: Take a look at this PSA by Keyan Mobil
Q: What's this CM7.1, Android 2.3.7 business?
A: The nightlies are built on CM7.1, which is Android 2.3.7, while the RC's (so far) are built on Android 2.3.3. Do NOT downgrade without a full wipe.
Q: How do I install CM7, coming from non-CM7?
A: From ciwrl, Head Moderator at http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/ "As we start the RC phase of CM7, many of you are now taking the leap from CM6 stable to the new RC's. Some of you may be able to get away with doing this without a wipe; however, most of you will not be that lucky. Differences in the rom, files system, and even Google Addons will likely throw most of you into boot loops. Therefore, here is my recommended upgrade path:
1) Nandroid backup your current rom
2) Update your recovery to the latest available (CWR is my choice)
3) Format system via recovery
4) Wipe/Factory reset
5) Flash CM7 then Google addon
If any of you have data that you must absolutely save, then and only then should you use Titanium backup (or other backup apps) to restore your data. Please be sure not to restore any data to /system using these apps, as this will mostly likely corrupt your ROM and/or Market."
Granted the above method says from CM6 to CM7, but it pretty much applies to any non-CM7 to CM7.
Q: How do I update from RC to nightly, stable to nightly, nightly to nightly, (basically, forwards) etc?
A: The safest (definitely not the only, but my preferred) way is
Download ROM with Rom Manager Premium.
Do not install with Rom Manager
Reboot into recovery.
Make a backup/nandroid (to be safe)
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik
Install Zip from SDCard
Nightly at /sdcard/clockworkmod/download/mirror.teamdouche.net/get/inc/
/Gapps at sdcard/clockworkmod/download/goo-inside.me/google-apps/
Reboot
Enjoy
Q: How about that 720P? I hear it's handy.
A: Per slayher, "720P recording will not be coming to CM7 at this time. We *MAY* see it later if we get an HTC GB leak, using an MSM device (aka not omap). But for now, if you HAVE to have 720P recording, stick with CM6. The issue is that GB uses stagefright, and the hack it took to get 720p in CM6 wont work with stagefright. (it was done in opencore.) This is why we cant get it. The current driver implementation we have to work with is just not capable. So there you go, you can stop wondering/asking/hoping."
Q: How about CWM3/5? I'm having a problem where....
A: Try deleting the current recovery first.
Q: How do I fix the space error that pops up when I try to install some apps?
A: Per slayher, "If you get a Space error trying to install apps, just try installing again. I have encountered this error also and it is not related to actual free space, (unless you have a cubic crap ton (crapton * crapton * crapton) of apps installed)."
Q: How do I disable the shutter sound?
A: Per mattyg151, "I used root explorer to rename /system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg to camera_click!.ogg ... no more camera shutter sound."
There is also an option at Menu > Settings > CyanogenMod setting > Sound > Mute camera shutter
Q: How do I increase the WiFi scan time to save battery life?
A: Per karnovaran, "One way to reduce battery drain is to increase the WiFi scan interval. It's set to 45 seconds, meaning it will scan every 45 seconds. If you change it to something like 90, obviously it will scan less often and use less battery. To do this, you have to edit the build.prop file in /system. The easiest way is with Root Explorer. Go to /system, mount r/w, open the build.prop in text editor and locate "wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=45" Change that value to 90 or whatever you want. Save the file, mount back to r/o, and reboot."
Q: Those automatic brightness settings are confusing. Anyone know of a good setting/rough guide?
A: This thread looks useful. So does this post
Q: How does that brightness slider thingey-majib work?
A: Per byrong "For those of you trying to figure out the new brightness-adjust-via-statusbar feature, do the following:
1. Settings > CM Settings > Interface > Status Bar Tweaks > StatusBar brightness (I'm guessing you guys already figured this part out)
2. Here's the trick: place your finger on the status bar, but don't drag it down. It will still 'peek' out some, but now you'll want to slowly drag your finger to the left or right while keeping it on the status bar itself. If you drag left, the screen will get darker; right for bright."
Q: I can't send no fancy mms picture messages!

Q: My bluetooth isn't working right.
And what does Mr. CUViper have to say about it?
For a fix, CUViper made a patch, and I added it to the stock cm kernel, and here's the 10/08 incredikernel: 2.6.38.8-incredikernel-gb-11042011.zip
If you need it on a different kernel, let me know.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Credits/Thanks
All credit goes to the CM team, and especially our DInc maintainers, as listed by the CyanogenMod site: jistone (aka CUViper), slayher, and of course, Koush.
Also, a huge thanks goes to sykopompos (formerly gridlock32404) for hosting the unofficial nightly/hourly "Crackflasher Builds" and keeping the crackflashers happy with 4+ builds a day. Good times, good times.
Anyone I miss?
Sheesh these are slow downloads
I assume they are getting hit pretty hard. Anyways, hooray! Can't wait to use these CM7 has been one of the greatest ROMs for me so far
Isn't the only major issue the 720p on the camcorder and the lack of hardware acceleration?
I haven't been using the earlier builds, but I'm downloading the nightly right now.
Thanks for getting the discussion started, PonsAsinorem. I think this thread sounds like a good idea, especially if you'll be dedicated to update information (ROM status, fixes, scripts, known issues, etc). Based on your involvement in the crackflasher thread, I'd bet you'll do a good job ;-)
My vote is to keep this thread going

camcorder appears to be broken again.
i believe slayher said hardware acceleration works fine.
some 3d games and apps are simply not compatible with gingerbread.
--edit-- well you can see we have some conflicting information.
slayher said:
Its an issue with Quadrant.
If you dont feel you have hardware acceleration, try downloading neocore, and nena mark from the market, I think you will change your mind.
I am not sure where the idea that we have no HW 3d came from, but we have it.
You can also try Speed Forge 3d demo too.

I remember seeing that we wouldn't have stable hardware acceleration until the official Gingerbread update for the Nexus One comes out, so that we have the correct drivers. I could have missed something, though.
Anybody else getting "Status 7" when attempting to flash CM7??
Solved!
Update HBoot from .79 to .92
(For the love of God make sure your formated to FAT32)
Thx so much for starting the thread my vote is to surely keep it going.

Now that the official build bot is up, and gridlock said he would quit building, I figured I'd start a new thread based on the "new" nightlies. In the OP, I will attempt to keep track of mods, themes, kernels and bugs for CM7.
For now, here is where the builds are found (and in ROM Manager Premium) http://mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=inc
And the overall progress of the build bot
http://buildbot.teamdouche.net/
Now I'm off to flash the newest nightly (yes, I'm using my phone's 3G), after which I will clean up this post, based on if I get favorable remarks. Or we could continue to use the original crackflasher thread. Up to ya'll.

I did a complete wipe before flashing build 0 and can confirm no working camcorder and my wifi problem of not switching APs appears to be persistent as well.

You can download them off the site I posted in the OP. In ROM Manager (for nightlies, a premium license is required) it stores them at /sdcard/clockwork/...
I don't remember off the top of my head, and Root Explorer hasn't downloaded yet.

DOWNLOADS:
RC1.2: DOWNLOAD THIS IS A NON-WIPE UPDATE, IF YOU WANT TO WIPE, CLICK WIPE DATA IN CWM. ALSO, YOU MUST BE ON AT LEAST RC1 TO FLASH RC1.2 (IF NOT, YOU WILL BOOTLOOP)
RC1:DOWNLOAD
JVQ Beta 2: DOWNLOAD The reason it is in Beta stage is because I just got it to work so I have had no time to test it out, with that given I expect everything to work. Also, it might bootloop once on first boot and then work, or maybe not, anyway it will work. If you are not coming from Beta 1 make sure to wipe, if you do not wipe please do not report any bugs or issues.
Stock Hacked Camera: Low battery + Shutter audio + Power button to take pics DOWNLOAD
IF YOU TRY THE STOCK ONE AND DECIDE YOU LIKE THE SGS2 ONE BETTER, HERE IS A LINK TO THAT CAMERA. (THANKS TO lukiqq)

[COLOR="red"][SIZE="4"]THIS IS BECAUSE YOU DO NOT HAVE VOODOO LAGFIX ENABLED, THIS IS A BUG ON GB, IF YOU ARE ON RFS (NO VOODOO LAGFIX) THERE IS A HIGH CHANCE YOUR APPS WILL DISAPPEAR, ENABLE LAGFIX (EXT4) AND TRUST ME, YOU WILL NEVER HAVE THIS PROBLEM AGAIN.

[I]I was charging my phone, but when I took it out it was at 96%. What the heck?[/I]
That is a stupid Samsung bug that cannot be fixed. Once it gets to 100, it will just stop charging.

Yes, the kernel includes Voodoo lagfix
[I]Can I use the Arabic patch from Simply Honey?[/I]
Yes, it is compatible.
[I]Do I have to be on GB to flash this?[/I]
Yes, that was already mentioned.
[I]Are GB bootloaders fully functional on froyo? What do they do?[/I]
Yes, the GB bootloaders are fully functional on froyo. They remove the rainbows on GB.
[I]Does this have Wi-Fi calling?[/I]
No. we would need a Vibrant-specific leak for that to work.

No, it is very different just look at it, it is very different in the framework the style everything. The only thing is it has some apps from SGSII. It is the same firmware so all the kernels are the same.

Can you just create a mirror thru mediafire man all this mirrors suck.
Can I just go ahead and flash from the link that was up..and just flash a modem..or should I wait hopefully I can just flash a vibrant modem of my own
So do we need to flash a modem? Would any vibrant modem work?
Sorry everyone, yes if you already flashed it you can just flash a vibrant modem on top of it.

Hey Ali, few questions....
as the first step...
do i ODIN both the "md5 file" with the "JVH_NO_BOOTLOADERS_PDA.tar" at the same time?
is the tar file a GB rom?
if so... after installing the new rom,
do i need to root install CWM and then follow your next step? (factory reset, flash, wipe.....etc)
please advice...Thanks!!!

The JVH_NO_BOOTLOADERS is a GB rom so that you can get on GB, the md5 is the bootloaders so that you will not experience rainbows, you have to be on GB to flash that is why I put that rom, but you do not need the bootloaders. Basically, you can download both files the Rom and the modem and put them on your sd card. Then odin the JVH thing without checking auto-reboot. When it finishes, pull the battery and use three button method to go into recovery. (If you flashed the Bootloaders beforehand you will have a different way to get into recovery. That way is volume down+power and download mode is volume up + power. Go into recovery, and follow the steps but flash the KB5 modem right after you flash the rom, then wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, and fix permissions. Reboot and enjoy.
Everyone, new version uploaded, now all you have to do is flash the rom, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, fix permissions, reboot, do nothing for 15 minutes, and then reboot again, and then you finally you can enjoy...

Actually, on the mediafire thing, I just realized it won't upload to mediafire because mediafire's limit for free users is 200 mb and this file is about 220 mb.
(7/23/12) Tweaked Stock for GT-P6800 Version 5.0
This is the BETA release of my tweaked stock ROM, based off of the new XXLQ1 Firmware. It uses AROMA to install the ROM and gives the user quite a bit of choice as to what apps to install. There are also some choices for mods and fonts, but these are limited ATM. I HAVE NOT tested all of the AROMA options in terms of apps and fonts, but there is nothing that will break anything....
This is a BETA release, so please don't flash unless you are willing to accept the risk of some bugs....no screenshots test, as it is stock...
Features
- Based on Official Firmware XXLQ1 (ATO);
- Deodexed,
- Zipaligned,
- AROMA 2.0 Installer;
- Stock kernel,
- Init.d support;
-Removed CPU rendering, full GPU rendering;
- init.d scripts include: RAM management and VM tweaks, zipalign, flash memory performance and more,
- build.prop tweaks for improved screen responsiveness, keeping home app in memory, etc.,
- Most widgets and icons removed from homescreen to make it cleaner and easier to customize (see screenshot),
- Optimized pngs and smali/xml launcher/framework tweaks for a smoother TW experience,
- See change log, in post #2...
Coming Very Soon
- Advanced/extended power menu (debugging now...)
Known Issues
-Homescreen is a bit messy when you first boot, depending on what you install via AROMA.... In the final, I will have all widgets, removed and app shortcuts aligned, so you have a clean slate.
- You tell me....
INSTALLATION
1. Make a Nandroid backup of your current ROM,
2. Download the flashable .zip file you want below,
3. Reboot into clockwork mod recovery,
4. You must flash the XXLQ1 ICS firmware via ODIN/Heimdall before flashing this ROM! Also, a data wipe is strongly recommended before flashing Thanks.
5. Flash the ROM zip in recovery, following the prompts in the AROMA installer (NOTE: on the custom install menu you need to use the volume keys to scroll up and down, working on this...),
6. Let it boot up and then go through the setup wizard,
7. Let the widgets load up and things settle, sync., etc.,
8. Enjoy, and please post bugs in the thread, if any ( "XDA App keeps force closing" is NOT a bug....).
9. If you like the ROM, please hit the thanks button....!

PLEASE NOTE:
This ROM will flash the modem.bin from the ATO firmware. This should not be an issue for users, but I just want you to know...I have it in there for beta testing purposes, and will remove in future releases...
If you use tegrak or some other over-clocking app, or if you restore data with Titanium Backup, please do not post bugs you may have when using those programs. The same goes for restoring system data via Titanium Backup. I cannot debug issues arising from their use.
Thanks/Credits
lowtraxx for helping me with the broken fonts issue...
More to come...
WARNING/DISCLAIMER
As with all custom ROMs, you flash the ROM and any other items linked to in this post or the remainder of this thread at your own risk. I cannot and will not be held responsible for anything that may happen to your phone, others or you as a result of flashing this ROM.
Change Log
Version 3.0--->Version 5.0
[*Initial Release of ICS Version
Version 2.0--->Version 3.0
Went back to XXLA4 base, completely rebuilt, with all apks optimized;
Removed CPU rendering, full GPU rendering;
Added some init.d tweaks to increase ext4 I/O speed,
revamped RAM, priorities, handler and vm tweaks;
incrased sdcard readahead to 2048,
added modded stock launcher from 10.1 that has also been optimized (still not as smooth as TW launcher, IMHO), with smali code altered to work with sqlite version in the firmware;
added back memo and a couple of other apps (Kies, etc.) to lite base;
Other dorky stuff I am sure I forgot...
Final v 1-->version 2.0
Completely rebuilt from newest official firmware DXBL3;
Only one version available (should work over all firmware, but see "Please Note" in OP). This is a "Lite Version";
Made Samsung App flashable zip available for those who want full ROM;
Working HideBar App;
Increased free memory in supercharger script;
Removed TCP tweaks from build.prop;
Redid allanimations in framework and launcher to increase speed/smoothness and reduce lag;
Probably a lot more I forgot...
RC3-->Final
De-symlinked system/app and data/app_s;
Added noatime flash memory tweaks;
added drop caches script to (hopefully) reduce lag in homescreen;
Messed with the animations a bit to speed them up;
More optimizations of Samsung TW apks to at least make them work better (wish I could get rid of them...);
Minor speed and battery tweaks;
More I am sure I forgot...
RC2-->RC3
Changed kernel flash method to improve (hopefully solve) problems with flashing onto some stock firmware;
Fixed app drawer background;
removed some init.d scripts I felt were extraneous;
Speed tweaks (let me know)...
RC1-->RC2
Fixed issue in kernel flash that (I hope) was preventing some users phone to force close/bootloop on startup;
Fixed issues with some apps and games crashing (again,..);
Symlinked /system/app/ to /data/app/ to offload some data on the system partition;
Moved some apps to /data/app so they can be uninstalled;
Adjusted the RAM script settings to be less aggressive, but hopefully just as effective;
tweaked VM settings;
removed some init.d scripts I felt were not adding all that much (make things simpler);
further tinkering with framework to smooth out TW interface. I find that the only noticeable lag now is after closing out a program, there is a fraction of a secon of lag when switching home screens. I hope to remove this by the final release...
Removed Apps & Extras
List of Removed Apps
Again, these can be re-added with the "SamsungApps.zip" in the OP,a will be an option in AROMA next version...
Kies
MobilePrint
Samsung Apps
This will be great
Thanks button for you even I had not yet flash it
Thanks Steve . Been waiting for this
Downloading ...
I will be testing this but I need a copy of a DXLA2 modem to make my own testing consistent vs a purely stock ROM, I dont want the modem file to cause excessive battery drains or what not, I have the single DXLA2 tar file for my P6800 inside it has a file labelled modem.bin can i safely flash that using Odin after I flash to this custom rom ?
Flashed. Smooth and bug-free so far - definitely a step up from the stock. A big thumbs up for the OP
Am eagerly waiting for theme tweaks in particular to the taskbar.
Link is down.
Hi,
Just wondering if you are you planning to do a wifi only (6180) version. There seems to be a lack of love for the non GSM Radio 7.7's out there with not a single rom in the forum.
Thanks a lot.

I think someone is working on one (well, I know he is, but not sure what his plans are for release). I will ask him what's up and then port this ROM if he is not planning on releasing it. It would be better, clearly if someone with the device were to release a ROM for it...

New DL Link
BTW, I am uploading the ROM to a new site now, PLEASE do not post mirror links of the ROM, as I like to keep track of its traffic...thanks! It will be back up shortly...

very nice rom, 10x better then stock (hk version) thank you!! Even TW looks lagless.
I got the 6810 first had it a week. Sent it back for 80 dollars more. I decided to get 3g version. Just to have 3g and phone option. I also remember development on orginal tab was most for the 3g version. My advice spend the extra doe.

Thank you for the effort. I tried this ROM with a factory reset. I get an FC on android.phone as soon as it boots, and that causes a reboot. I tried to reflash but it did not work. I am using the 3g international version from Dubai.
I flashed it last night on a 3G 16Gb and performance is noticably better. However one bug - when playing Reckless Racing 2 the game continually pauses itself. It's not dirt on the screen causing it and a reboot didnt help. It doesnt seem to impact any other apps.
Can someone else running this rom please test on Reckless Racing 2? It happens a few times per race.

Hmmm...try wiping everything, data/factory reset, cache partition, dalvik cache, battery stats, etc. The script should do this for you, but maybe something went awry...
If that doesn't work, try redownloading the zip. Finally, PM me, and we can see if we can sort it out...

So the game is actually pausing itself or freezing up. Sorry, just want to be clear. I can run a logcat on this one...as long as the game looks fun.....
THIS ROM IS A WORK IN PROGRESS. JUST ENLISTING TESTERS AT THE MOMENT.
I wanted to get a solid CWM flashable base ROM together. We shouldn't be entirely dependent on the Ouya updates and Ouya stock recovery.
As the name implies, the goal of this ROM is to provide a solid base that others may build/cook on top of. This ROM isn't supposed to have all the bells and whistles of a Cyanogenmod.
I simply used the stock Ouya ROM from the latest OTA (264) and changed a few things.
Changes:
-added superuser
-added busbox
-added terminal emulator
-changed install_recovery.sh to prevent stock recovery overwrite on boot
-removed recovery-from-boot.p
-changed ro.update_url in build.prop to attempt to disable OTA updates
Bugs so far:
-OTA updates have not been all the way disabled
-superuser and busybox need to be re-implemented properly into the updater-script
Instructions:
-You need CWM Recovery installed to flash this
-Do a backup in CWM before flashing (seriously, you'll have something to go back to if things go awry)
-Wipe cache
-Wipe dalvik cache
-Data wipe is optional (this is alpha, doing the wipe causes an annoying update loop)
Again, this ROM is in testing. It should be considered alpha state. Don't flash it if you are afraid to break something. I'm looking to make it better/more stable through testing.

THIS ROM IS A WORK IN PROGRESS. JUST ENLISTING TESTERS AT THE MOMENT.
I wanted to get a solid CWM flashable base ROM together. We shouldn't be entirely dependent on the Ouya updates and Ouya stock recovery.
As the name implies, the goal of this ROM is to provide a solid base that others may build/cook on top of. This ROM isn't supposed to have all the bells and whistles of a Cyanogenmod.
I simply used the stock Ouya ROM from the latest OTA (264) and changed a few things.
Changes:
-added superuser
-added busbox
-added terminal emulator
-changed install_recovery.sh to prevent stock recovery overwrite on boot
-removed recovery-from-boot.p
-changed ro.update_url in build.prop to attempt to disable OTA updates
Bugs so far:
-OTA updates have not been all the way disabled
-superuser and busybox need to be re-implemented properly into the updater-script
Instructions:
-You need CWM Recovery installed to flash this
-Do a backup in CWM before flashing
-Wipe cache
-Wipe dalvik cache
-DON'T wipe data (I'm not sure what we'll lose yet by wiping data and all we have are OTA updates to work from)
Again, this ROM is in testing. It should be considered alpha state. Don't flash it if you are afraid to break something. I'm looking to make it better/more stable through testing.

Good job dude i give try and report
And the time has come! Thank you sir
So I just did an install wiping data, cache, and dalvik. There are definitely bugs to be worked out. The Ouya launcher constantly tries to get an update (verified in data usage in settings). Reboots take me to CWM recovery (where I choose not to run the update). When I boot back into Android the same thing happens. Anyone have an idea about how to disable updates but keep the Ouya launcher? I tried editing the build.prop (see OP), but that didn't seem to work.
They are using a modified version of CMupdater from cyanogenmod source, but I haven't figured out how to disable it yet...
I might need to decompile the Ouyalauncher apk and see if I can find something to disable the updates.

Actually went outside this weekend
Hey reporting had thee most disturbing pleasure of watching After Earth this weekend god help you if you get so unlucky to watch that
But on to better things I installed the rom all was well then started to get random reboots and freeze ups lucky had done a back up but other then that slim quick
Updating to properly install busybox and Superuser.apk.
I'm having some trouble hunting down how to disable the Ouya automatic updates. I deodexed and decompiled the OuyaLauncher.apk and found some references to auto updates, however, I'm unsure what to mess with to prevent updates from occurring.
-Can we prevent the AutoUpdateActivity or AutoUpdateService from being run by the launcher (or replace their behavior with something trivial that does nothing)?
-If we snooped on the ouya's ethernet connection (with tcpdump or wireshark), I wonder if we could see the dns query for the update site. If so, we might be able to simply block by modifying /system/etc/hosts. This wouldn't work if the domain of the updates was the same as the domain of the Ouya store. While an update was downloading, I used netstat to see current connections. I saw two established connections. Did a reverse DNS lookup on the IP addresses and found out they correspond to amazonaws.com. Added "127.0.0.1 amazonaws.com" to the /system/etc/hosts file. The update still started downloading the next time I rebooted. I tried manually going to amazonaws.com in the browser and couldn't connect (as expected). Oh well, it was worth a try.
-Any app developers / smali wizards out there who want to help?
I've included the decompiled OUYALauncher for reference.

The only question is: What is on that ROM new? It just has the Root-Tools which you know from phone flashing. I don't see any reason for that work.

The idea is it's supposed to be a base for other roms to use. Others only have to concentrate on their additional apps and tweaks, not annoying things like preventing updates from annoying the user.
I don't think the OUYA store will work on anything other than a ROM based on stock, so a custom ROM with tweaks and the OUYA store will need to figure this out. I'm personally hoping we get CM 10.1 running, but I also see the value of stock based Roms for the OUYA focused apps from the store.

And I've had phenomenally bad experiences trying to get apps NOT ported to the Ouya working. Real Racer 3 looks gorgeous... But you can't navigate the menus without a touch screen, for example. There's no controller support. If I could figure out which controller button corresponded to a mouse click...

Since android 4.0.4 , gamez apps should have gamepad support. GTA 3 runs really smooth at OUYA.. I am the only one who got a heavy input lag from controller?

I'll try to track down a copy of 1.3 if I cannot convince 1.4 to function.
