i just noticed that the "My Apps" button in the market now looks like a phone and says "sprint"
If i click on it it doesn't take me to my apps.
Anyone else having this problem?
That's normal for this build. If you click on your Menu, you'll find My Apps there.
Thanks you were right
Best ROM on XDA
+1
I'm really enjoying this ROM. The speed of the machine is phenomenal.
Love the Rom ad well but can't seem to get the market updated or to show all apps. Any thoughts?
I've tried market enabled to no avail.
Issue with ROM or with G-Tab?
I've noticed that if I let the g-tab go to sleep, I'm having to reboot it get it to wake up.
Is anyone else having this issue? I've had my tablet since x-mas, but have nto used it much. It sat in a desk drawer for about 2 months, and I'm just now getting into using it.

I have this issue with every rom ive tried on my gtab. So now I pretty much just install clem's kernel everytime. Plus it gives me CIFS so I can stream media from my windows pc .

Yeah, again it's just the build. There are a ton of hacks that will get you more of the market, but I doubt you'll ever get "everything". Considering that the GTab wasn't blessed by Google, we're lucky to have the devs here to get the market at all.

Another issue with this ROM. Some have fixed it by going to Clemsyn's kernel, others to Pershoot's and still others by using CPU Master Free. Personally, I just set my tab's Screen Timeout to Never. What can I say...I like simple.

Been getting over 2500 on quadrant consistently with a high of 2612. It's the fastest my tab has run so far.

I agree. The only problems I see with it are no news and weather widget like on tnt, and the horrible photo album (I think it's from stock?)
Fireware
This may be a stupid question, so I am sorry if it is, but Calkulins v1.1 says it is "Based on rooted 2.2 / FRF91 - TnT 3991"...
so can you run it on the 1.1-3588 firmware, or will that brick?
Again, sorry for my ignorance...
Thanks!
ROM's and Firmware are the same thing. If you're asking whether you can use ClockworkMod or standard recovery, the answer is yes. Calkulin's ROM is a hybrid using the newer 3991 build for features but the older bootloader and recovery. It shouldn't cause you any trouble loading it over 3588.
Thanks! Sorry, I confused the firmware with bootloader, thanks for straightening that out!
No problem. Just want to make sure that I understand the question correctly. Happy modding!
All Done!
Woot!! I will say, I bought this on the woot! deal... and although I consider myself very computer savvy, I have never rooted/hijacked/whatever a device before...
Happily this was super easy! I wanted use the stock ROM for a bit to get familiar with it, but I just couldn't stand how slow/unresponsive/just crappy it was!!
So I jumped the gun and started in... luckily I did a lot of reading first!!
Loaded up Clockworkmod - and made a backup first!! lol
Used clockworkmod to install Calkulins ROM---OMG is it fast!!
The found that I was having the sleep-death issue... so I loaded up Clemsyns Kernel Too!!
Not a single hiccup! Even for a noob- this is super easy! Just follow all the great advice on the XDA forums (and don't skip steps!) and you can't screw it up.
Thanks to all the great people on here, for the hard work, and patience... I love seen good communities like this!

Which version of Clemsyns is recommended?
Hi,
clakulins ROM is my prefered ROM so far
But, it needs some issues to be addressed to make it my daily driver.
1- sleep-to-death
I know we can use another kernel to fix this (so I keep this fix for later if everything else can work)
2- Settings/Family accounts/add member
This FC every single time. I definitly need this functionality. My Gtab being a family device....
3- Photos is horrible as previosuly pointed out in this thread. I want a centralized place for all my photos, or at least for local storage + picasa. With this gallery, we can only access picasa public albums. What about my own account !!!
4- Photos started to display pictures roatated one quarter to the left. It doesnt let me re-rotate them back to original. It does that for evey single picture, i cant fix this. Photos is now unusable
I tried a few Photos gallery apps from the market (6-7 so far). None of them works to my liking.
I just want somethings simple that get access to all my pics.
5- Cant play videos anymore. Not even the sample 'car' and 'king kong' that came with the Gtab.
If I can fix all of the above, calkulin will be my only and permanent ROM.
(ps items 4 and 5 were previously working ok in this ROM, this started yesterday)
Also, another things that is on my whish list:
- Have bluetooth HID
I have this blutooth keyboard collecting dust on the used parts shelve that I would like to use with the Gtab
thank you calkulin for all,
So, I decided to install clemsyn kernel to fix this sleep-death problem.
No problem installing, everything went well.
But now instead of comlaining that it cant play videos, it just FC on every videos I try to play.
I feel a complete reinstall will be necessary.
Hey everyone! I'm new to the forum and just received my g tablet today. I followed the instructions for installing cwmod and tnt lite 4.40 and everything went great. However, I've run into a few issues. When trying to download angry birds it hangs at 15%. I have tried multiple times to kill the download and restart it with the same results.
I'm also new to Android. Is there a way to set things up so my gmail is not accessible to anyone who picks up my tablet? I could also use a recommendation for a good video player that plays .avi files. Another problem I'm having is that whenever I try to play a music file in either the native music player or winamp, the app crashes. Everyone told me how much better android is than apple but so far im not that impressed. Can anyone make some recommendations so I can see the full potential of this tablet? Thanks in advance!
I just upgraded from 4.2 to 4.4.0 and don't have any of the issues you are referring to. I was previously getting a couple of force closes that I don't have anymore with 4.4 which makes me happy. I just confirmed movies play, but I don't have any songs loaded to test that. Hopefully someone here with greater knowledge will chime in quickly. You made a good choice going with Android - don't give up hope. It does take a little more effort to get it setup the way you want it, but the beauty is that you HAVE a lot of choices which iOS does not allow. You'll get there, and then you will love it.

Have you tried clearing caches? Wiping data? Many times those two simple things (which are usually recommended procedure after flashing a new ROM0 will clear up all kinds of problems.
With the latest TNTL you should be able to activate the lock screen. You'll need to set up a shortcut through your launcher to a security settings screen that isn't shown by default. That will allow you to enter a password, pin or unlock pattern.
Update: Just realized camera isn't working either. As for the Angry Birds problem, I have downloaded and installed other apps with no problem but for some reason Angry Birds hangs at 15% - super frustrating! Also, is there a way to do a screen capture? Thanks in advance!
I had a similar problem
You really need to check the error code to verify. I was having a similar issue and I found an article to resolve my issue.
This worked for me but like I said you need to check if you are receiving an error when attempting to install.
I would only do what this little fixit instructs to fix

The caveat with the android over apple is the versatility and personal control over how you get to use your device. That said, it requires a little bit of effort, research, and frustration to get it all to work perfectly if you choose to use the latest builds. If you want the least amount of problems use the most stable build (which is usually not the most latest build) Once you get use to it, using the latest build with bugs won't be so intimidating and frustrating...maybe still frustrating

If the camera is not working, you definitely want to do a data wipe (this is a GTablet, correct? I ask because VEGA and Adam users have tried to use TNT Lite before, and their cameras would definitely break).
As for screen capture, I used ddms (in the Android SDK).
If so have you found anything that was not working on it? I am currently running VEGAn Ginger and want to try the HC but I want to know what is not working before taking the time to nvflash and install new ROM.
No, but
Many things are still not workin, but there are great improvements daily. I think it wont be long to say a stable beta version.
So i would suggest to be patient and wait till the beta is out
Thanks, I will stay with VEGAn for now until then.
I loaded a2.2 and it is pretty good. They updated the email apps in a2.3. The only things now not really working are hd video, camera, flash (not sure if flash is working in further updates). Overall, for me the things that are missing are already missing in vegan rc1 (hd video and camera) so I am gonna stay with honeycomb and continue updating as new updates come out. It is nice and streamlined.
Been running every iteration. I've stuck with a2.1 now for a bit.
After this update, they have the overclocking kernel back in place and my gtab hates that. So I reverted back to 2.1, and then just copied the working email and gmail apps over.
Just missing the flash, who cares about the camera.
Came from Vegan Ginger, so the only thing this doesnt have over that is the working flash. But to be honest, its been a lot more stable than ginger ever was.

Quick Update:
I installed a2.2 and it is crazy fast. 1900 quadrant before OC 2900+ after OC. Only caveat is the wifi crashes and the camera issues. Waiting for RC now.

You need to update to 2.4 - a good bit was fixed. Still no camera or OpenGL, but almost everything I need is fine as wine!
(I still am not happy with Asus-based 3.X yet - hoping for an Acer-based version 2.5 or something higher ... or version 4)

Pretty sure that is just running the Adam or Bottle of Smoke ROM.
The 3.01 they reference is the Honeycomb version, the 2.X referred to here is version of the Bottle of Smoke mod by Roebeet.
Bottle of Smoke
Just got it running today. It took me several hours to figure out the process, but I have successfully loaded the software. I am running Smoke Alpha 3.3. I am experiencing problems with wifi which seems to only be available for about 10-20 minutes. Once it stops working I have to restart the system. I can't scan or restart wifi from with in settings. I did get vulkano to work but it to locked up when I tried to change channels. I couldn't get Dolphin HD to work -- it loads but won't render any web pages, but Firefox beta (5) seems to work just fine. For some reason I can't download opera 11 from the market but other apps install with not problem. I have tried a few basic games (for the grand kids) and they seem to be working ok.
Does anyone know if Netflix is working for Bottle of Smoke??
Not on my viewsonic. You can access your queue but you can't view any videos.

Except for Opera, all of those are (well) documented issues. Read through the last 10-20 pages in Roebeet's BoS thread at Slatedroid and you will see many other people talking about the same things.

Hi,
So I just recently got the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and I have to say I'm a bit disappointed. I am familiar with Android and I know what I'm doing (or so I think lol) but some things just aren't working and I don't know if it's me or software limitation. Regardless I'm hoping someone can shedd some light on these...
1. The market is lacking a LOT of applications that are available on phones. Is that right? I thought it would just scale for the most part....I can't even find the official Facebook app on the market. Am I looking in the wrong place or something? Hulu? Netflix??
1a. Some applications that I sideload (mainly widgets) like typoclock or something of that sort....install, but when I go to add the widget it is not there, as if never installed. Even when I try to reinstall it, it says that it will replace the old one so i know for a fact that it installs, but the widgets aren't available, and they arent listed in the installed apps drawer either.
2. It seems kind of sluggish...and I really haven't installed much, even from a cold boot...it's kinda laggy, not as quick as I have seen on some review videos. Quadrant scores around 1400-1500. I Rooted it, installed the latest SunBurst ROM and overclocked to 1.4Ghz and it's still laggy often despite nearing 3000 on quadrant now.
3. So I couldn't get any Netflix apk to work on it stock, so once I rooted, installed Sunburst ROM it came installed with a Netflix app, but I don't think it's official since the icon is orange and has a little android on it. Needless to say THAT app doesn't work and CAN'T be installed (I figure it's cooked onto the ROM) regardless I found a Netflix apk that install and replaces it, and works...but after one day it reverts back to the old netflix and doesn't work. So pretty much everytime I want to use Netflix I have to reinstall and overwrite with the new Netflix apk I found...it's annoying. (and the search function doesn't work on that Netflix either)
I know it's a lot to rant about and a lot of issues, and I love the tab and honeycomb, but I can't believe these issues still persist. I hope someone can help me with one/all of these and I will be forever grateful.
Thanks, hope someone can help...
1a. Try a restart after you install a widget. It seems that if the widget is not made for HC, it doesn't appear before you restart.
i tried rebooting but that didn't help any unfortunately...
There's a netflix 1.3 APK somewhere that sideloads perfectly. I haven't tried it with Touchwiz yet - I haven't even touched Touchwiz.
Try stock ROM first. Your ROM might have broken something. I know Bonsai completely broke USB storage support as an example, and Starburst claims to be the "most complete and fastest Touchwiz experience" which means it's going to have missing and broken things. Any ROM dev making claims like that is compensating for something. The "hacked-icon" Netflix app is an obvious sign they went a LITTLE too far.
Netflix sideload works perfectly on my Tab. Unrooted. TouchWiz. Stock.
i tried netflix fix on starburst rom, it did work but reverted back to fcs after a reboot. i switched to bonsai 3, netflix seems to be working fine even after a reboot.
2. It seems kind of sluggish...
The default launcher is a bit sluggish, it is a honeycomb issue. For me I have seen after a "reboot", the tab does take a couple of minutes to "settle", then it is smooth for me, but if you have lot of widgets on your homescreens it will be sluggish, my experience in any case.
thanks to all you guys for all the replies.
As far as the Netflix, I know I do have the correct apk I think the issue is that it isn't playing nice with the one that is baked into the rom. I guess I will have to install another rom.
However I haven't heard anything on the apps, is that right? There's no Facebook? Anyoneelse having issues with Widgets not appearing?
For Facebook search for an app in the market called 'Friend Me'
Looks great and works great =)
for getting rid of sluggishness try this launcher: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188701

Thanks! Good call, app looks great!
@js931,I'll give that launcher a try and see how it goes.
I understand and feel for you on your problems. My 3rd (and final) Galaxy Tab is on the way to me from Amazon.com. I also have an Asus Transformer on the way as well and the device that gives me the least amount of problems is the device I plan to keep. I want to like the Tab but I don't have high hopes since I'm about to be on my 3rd device. The 2nd one worked perfectly after Touchwiz for a while - even fixed issues I was having such as the typing lag - but the issues I had with the first one (screen and/or Wifi doesn't respond after bringing the device out of sleep) resurfaced a few days ago. The 2nd Tab also had something loose on the inside as it produces a loud rattling noise whenever it vibrates. While that is easily cured by turning off the vibration, I paid $600 for this device and I expect it to be near-perfect. So any little issue I have with this 3rd Tab means it's going back for a refund and I'll keep the Transformer... assuming it behaves like it should, lol.
At any rate, good luck with your issues. The Tab is a beautiful device but seems to be problematic... at least that's my experience with it.
Hi forum!
I have a good ol' galaxy tab 10.1. And it's horrible. Super slow, Chrome won't run, constant "unfortunately ___ has stopped", for some reason Hangouts keeps attempting to run and stops. It's pretty close to unusable. Is it possible to save it?
I'm a newb (I've rooted and installed custom roms in the past, but nothing in the last 3 years or so, so I'm pretty much back to start).
Details:
Android version 4.2.2.
kernel 3.1.10-cyanogenmod
AOKP p4wifi_unofficial_Mar-16-13
The reason I haven't bought a new one is because I use it so infrequently. I've got the S7 and it does just about everything I need, but every once in awhile it would be nicer to have a bigger screen. So I don't really want to go out and spend hundreds of dollars on a new tablet if I can salvage this one for the rare occasion I use it. The reason I dragged it out this time was to edit a video, so it would be nice if I could do that (powerdirector doesn't support this version). Beyond that it would probably just be a movie player for road trips with the kid... Or if anyone has any other suggestions what to do with it, I'm open!
Any help is greatly appreciated! I'd hate to see it go!
No, never let go I've got 7.1.1 Nougat running well with the latest update. A bit laggy but not too much, and stable so far.
The trick is it will autoupdate to an incompatible version of Google Play services (and some other gapps) - unless you take the right steps as shown in this thread (check the first 2 posts and the last few pages of posts).
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-10-1/development/rom-android-7-0-nougat-t3471350
NB The gapps recommended in the orig post wouldn't flash for me. I used open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20170119.zip
from
https://github.com/opengapps/arm/releases/tag/20170119
Once you stop autoupdates in Play Store and roll back to the last compatible versions of some major google apps, it runs great for most ordinary purposes. My Sygic app is working properly again too.
Sure it's a bit of work and it was a bit confusing for me working out how to get the right version of Google Play services installed, but I found it very rewarding and worthwhile. There's a couple more of its nine lives yet imo. Was a great choice of tablet.
(I can't speak for hangouts though; I don't use it.)

Well that's annoying - I subscribed to the thread but it never told me that someone was kind enough to reply!!
Well here's an update in case you're curious: I've bricked it. I tried to flash it back to stock and now it's stuck in a bootloop *sigh*
So, if I can ever get it out of that state I'll give your suggestions a try. Thanks so much for posting!
Holy crap I saved it! But it's runnig Android 3.2 LOL
So I'm going to see about getting JellyBam on there, it looks to be pretty stable.
I've just been trying to decide what to do with mine,
I have ASOP 5.1.1 but always get 'Google Play Services has stopped' so want to find a version that I can just put on and leave it on without having to do anythign too technical
Did you try the link that rubbercorners posted?
I'll take a look

Did you end up giving up on it? I updated to a newer version of Nougat (same link I linked above) and it seems to have solved the Google Play Services crashing error. But you still need to use older versions of some apps, and Google Maps doesn't seem to work properly any more (I use Sygic navigation).
It also has some kind of 'Neon emulation' which slows down some apps.
Realistically, with this tablet, you have to be prepared to use workarounds for a bunch of things and for most people it's too much of a hassle, and very laggy with things like Google Now/Assistant or whatever it's called. I doubt you could use it for video editing, and youtube works at 480p max I think.
Having said that, I have it running well for what I use it for - Sygic navigation, occasional browsing, gmail etc. And I think it would run 720p movies okay if already downloaded (I haven't tried Netflix etc.)
I doubt running older ROMs like JellyBam would have any advantage over the latest Nougat (I could be wrong?). Surprisingly, Marshmallow and Nougat run less laggy than the older ROMs ever did for me (including the official ones).
I went with Jellybam but get an error with the keyboard AOSP so can't type anything at all
Now Google Play Services started crashing again. I will try to solve it again, but I might be getting to the point of just using this tablet for Sygic offline navigation.
*slaps myself for losing faith in my tablet*
The developer fixed Nougat again and it's working pretty pretty nicely for me (no Google Play Services crash). Remains to be seen whether anyone will try to get Oreo running on it (or if it's even possible), but I can see myself getting another year out of this ROM:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-10-1/development/rom-android-7-0-nougat-t3471350
If anyone tries it, note:
- read the first few posts of the thread carefully
- install using TWRP 2.8.7.0 if it fails using TWRP 3
- turn off autoupdates (see thread).
- if you have problems with Google Play Services crashing (it updated itself to 11.5.17 and is running fine for me), try to find a way to install one of the earlier versions recommended there - maybe install the earlier gapps (P7500-open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20170119.zip) and roll back/uninstall Google Play Services to the stock one if it autoupdates.
- there's an unfixable hardware bug where sometimes the battery drains with the power off. The workaround is to always shut down the tablet by rebooting into TWRP recovery and power off there. (This bug has apparently always been in this tablet, but it shows up more in later Android versions.)
- if tablet doesn't power up, hold the power button down for about 10 seconds
- I rooted using the phh SuperUser option (2 steps to this). Some people seem to be having trouble with the Magisk option.
