[ROM][KANG]CM9 ICS 10.1 WiFi Preview 03/04/12

Hello everyone,
as the old KANG build that got posted here is very old I've decided to compile my own builds.
As many people demanded a newer build you can use mine.
Flashing this may brick your device and there is no support from either Cyanogen and his crew or me. You do this on your own responsibility.
This build is not final - it's more an alpha build. If you decide to use it you shouldn't care about bugs.
I'll keep posting updates every day (if there is any reason for it). There will be no guaranteed support and I won't add user-specific features for anyone.
This is not my work - it's mostly from Pershoot & Cyanogen. This build uses Pershoot's GitHub as base for the device.
If you like the builds you're welcome to donate for some Club Mate / Beer and new hardware.
Works:
WiFi works
No more SOD or display flickering
Buttery smooth
HQ Videoplayback
USB Transfer - use the MTP mode and stop complaining about ICS
Doesn't work:
Camera doesn't work
I will not provide detailed Changelogs. Read CM9 Gerrit ICS & P4Wifi for that.
You can find the official app in the Android Market for 1 €:
https://market.android.com/details?id=de.messerschmidt.tabkang
It supports direct reboot (normal and into the recovery) and downloading the newest rom (incl. version-check) from my private FTP.

Installation:
Flash CWM if you've got none (I'm using the Overcome one)
Backup your current build
Wipe data
Flash my build
Flash the Gapps
Reboot (may take a few minutes)
Enjoy
USB MTP:
As some people requested me to do a little How-to for enabling MTP-mode:
Go into the settings
Choose storage
Tap the 3 dots in the upper right (menu)
Choose "USB computer connection"
Check "Media device (MTP)"
Done
Notice:
This is a pure Android rom and no Samsung rom. There won't be any unneeded additions like TouchWiz, My Files, or whatever.
Look in the Market for other/better apps if you're seriously missing something. I won't any additions/apps/whatever to this rom except I want to use it myself (not gonna happen).

Just bug fixes, I think. I'm downloading now, so I'll report back later.

Installed and booted fine. Testing now, report back later.

Because I don't know when he built his build?
The display isn't flickering anymore and I didn't get any SODs anymore.

How suitable for everyday use is this build, beside of the above mentioned issues?

Gonna go ahead and subscribe to this and see what issues there are.
Not sure how much longer I can hold out for official CM9/ICS.

Now that the flickering is fixed and SOD, I'd say it's well suited for daily use.
P.S. It also seems to be alot smoother, and you now get Terbuchet settings. Only thing missing for me is the camera.

is it safe to overinstall over DaAwesome1's ICS Kang, or must I wipe?

Does anyone know please, whether the cm9 kernal supports undervolting?

Basically a wipe shouldnt be needed. Test share your experience.

Does Netflix work? I'm this close to jumping on this.

This is just a whole new CM9 from the build posted earlier. The old build worked very smooth, as long as you didnt fill it with lots of user apps and widgets then it became very laggy. I have now restored all my apps 250+ and its still silky smooth, i have widgets with sync on several windows and app shortcuts and it still behaves as if it where just installed (empty). this sure gives hope for our tab. Go CM Team and thanks to OP for posting this build.

This build is an improvement over the prior kang, seems the CM team has been busy over the holidays. Smoother UI, screen flickers are gone, definite daily driver material. Will report back if I run into any problems.

SGS+ I9001 Question

Hi everyone in this forum,
Just a quick question, a friend of mine owns a SGS+ I9001 and he's running stock rom, I wanted to install a custom rom for him, (I know I'm not supposed to ask these kind of questions) which rom do you recommend me, it needs to be as stable, fast and battery friendly as possible, I hope you could help me, thank you very much before hand!
Have a nice one!

All CM9 based roms are stable. Also the CM10 based roms are stable but they might have some bugs.

I'm using Ivendor's CM10 alpha 6 now. It works very well. But you should read in the SGS+ section what rom is the best for yourself. For myself Ivendor's CM10 is the best because I have now JB working on my phone like on a nexus device.

I agree that ivendor's Kernel are one of the most snappier ever so far.

Thank you guys, thank you very much, just another question, is ivendors CM10 stable enough for a person that knows very little about android to use as a daily driver? Thanks again!

NO, it's not perfectly stable, because it's an ALPHA release, however most of us use it as a daily ROM. One or two random reboots in one month, some minor freezes - I think it's worth it, the performance is outstanding, especially with some 3.x.x. kernels. Anyway, wait for RC version, if you want stock rom - like stability.

You could also try one of the CM9 releases. They've been around longer and are probably more stable than the CM10 ones.
I'm using arco's release (can be found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1650615) which has only very few quirks left. The only ones I run into sometimes are a problem with the compass (something strange is going on with the magnetic field sensor) and GMail / Facebook occasionally display only a white screen (which can be fixed by killing and restarting the app) (which can be mapped onto long-pressing the back button).
There's also ivendor's release, which has some other fixes but hasn't been updated for quite some time. There's also a number of remixes, an AOSP release by broodplank, AOKP, and MIUI.
Basicly, there's a list here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901212
The JB's are bound to have some bugs, don't flash them if you don't plan on updating as well. ICS is probably rather stable and most GB releases are probably stable as well.
Fastest: probably AOSP (so brood's release) and JB (project butter and all)
Most battery-friendly: GB
Stable: anything but JB

[Q] Most Stable ROM

Hi everyone,
I recently installed android on my friend's Touch Pad. Which ROM do you recommend as the most stable/usable ROM? (While being new and hopefully rather current as - like Android 4.1 or 4.2). My friend is definitely not familiar with flashing or anything like that, but she knows how to use android. As I will be moving out of the state at the end of this week, I want to leave her with a good ROM that will be nice and stable and easy for her to use. What do you all suggest? Thanks!

Tough one just have to flash them all and test I would go for cm10 night lies because they'll constantly update it and all you have to do is go into settings and update it.

Thanks, I'm trying a couple. I had a 4.2.2 mashup of CM, AOKP, and PA. It was a bit buggy, and probably too confusing for my friend. She does really like the PIE controls though so I'm trying to get a stable one with those. If not I'll just go for the CM10 nightlies probably. Thank you sir!

for me, the most stable roms are the standard CM9 nightlies.
they benchmark higher than any of the 4.2.2 builds, and has working bluetooth and no UI issues as noted on the CM10 and CM10.1 builds.
every few weeks I backup my HP touchpad and install some of the latest roms and always come back to CM9. it just works better, and best of all, it has a better UI (while the tablet UI mod helps with CM10 and 10.1, it does not fix all of the issues. and for CM10.1 there is no 120dpi so you are stuck with everything being oversized for the screen
while with cm9 all you need is the CWM flashable 120dpi patch which still works with the latest nightly builds and takes care of any market place issues.
Overall for everyday use, CM9 is still the way to go.
I attached the 120dpi patch that I use. It only works on CM9

I've used both CM9 & CM10 and found them to be very stable.

I downloaded. And installed the LCD density trick. Fonts are too small for me. How can I undo it?

If you are on CM10 and the 120dpi is too small, to undo it flash the 160dpi file
the CWM dpi patches are the only ones that have worked for me, I have tried android 4.1 and 4.2 and the only recommendations for adjusting the dpi is using apps from the market place and all of the recommended ones for me have not worked, most causes the rom to not boot fully.
The main thing holding me back from going to anything higher than CM9, is the lack of stable bluetooth support, the new android 4.1+ UI that is just a more screen space wasting version of the cellphone UI (not tablet optimized at all), and the issue with no 120DPI mod working with it.

Have been using CM9 for a long time with no complaints other than battery life. I think there may be some kernels that are better, but I like when the battery runs out and my kids have to put it down. A timer of sorts. I have not found a combination that can compare to WebOS for battery life. But, Android has all the latest stuff now for the kids, so, Android it is. I still use WebOS, though, when I can.

CM10.1 nightlies by milaq have been very stable for me. I experienced random crashing of the default browser in CM9 nightlies but none in CM10.1.
Obviously the missing Bluetooth in CM10.1 may be an issue for some but I haven't really used BT for anything.

[Q] What ROM do I install?

I've got my P990 stock ROM ICS 4.0.4 and I was wondering what custom ROM can I install onto it?
Preferably fast.

There is no one favorite, alot of folk either prefer CM10.x or ICS,
ICS roms, have (or at least should have) everything working, technically, like wifi, bluetooth, gps, HDMI, etc.
CM10 + roms dont have some working items, (and probably never will) - like HDMI
different roms do run differently for everyone. IMO the latest 10.2 rom from Tonyp is amazingly smooth, but with the current CM10 bugs, and falky GPS for now.
here is some of the bugs and fixes that Tonyp sorted out for 10.1 (hes working on them for 10.2) ** so dont bother him about any of them ^.^ **
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41068286&postcount=2
You best bet is to try a few of the recommended roms, and see what you think best works for you.

Try install P.A.C-Man 4.3.0 (JB4.3) wiht the last Kowalsky kernel is fast and stable for me. P.A.C-Man combine best features of CM10.2, Aokp and PA. You can download P.A.C-Man at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2148394 and Kowalsky kernel at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097788.

As someone stated before, the stock based roms have less bugs and the CM based rom are more experimental. Anyway, you can also overclock your rom. Don't forget to install a 32m ramhack (check google).

[Kernel] 4.2.2 ION/PMEM

This is taken from cars1198 cm10.1 rom. ALL CREDITS TO HIM all i did was extract it out for others to use on other 4.2.2 based roms.
CLARIFICATION UPDATE:
PMEM BASED ROMS wifi and camcoder breaks. Everything else should work including newer maps and better 3d performance.
ONLY ROMS THAT ARE ION BASED ARE IN MASS CM BY CARS1198
AND JFBS CM11

I am psyched to try it with Slimbean. To flash a new kernel, do I need to wipe anything first, or is a dirty flash sufficient? I will make a nandroid first, just to make sure everything is copacetic. Exactly what does ION/PMEM give us that we did not have? Besides finally being able to upgrade to the latest build of Maps?

Well, I just installed it and it seems fine. The phone is definitely faster. I will try to upgrade maps. Skype I'm leaving with the old version for other reasons.
It's like a new phone.... So smooth and fast. Wow! Still restarts if I try to start USB download mode, but I suspect I would have to reload the rom to fix that and it's not a big enough problem. It's too bad I lost my little startup screen android, but such is life.
Oops. Wi-Fi is no good. I will see if I hit the 4g ceiling. I suspect I will. Last time I went without Wi-Fi I hit the ceiling in a week. I don't want to wipe anything before I install, as this is my work phone.
Camera works but camcorder does not. So, seemingly the same problems others have had. I honestly did not try the camcorder with the old kernel, though.
