CyanogenMod 7 (w/ Gingerbread 2.3.7) for Galaxy SII
The only rule of CyanogenMod: you don't ask for ETAs. You install, your warranty is void.
Warning : Not for new users, flash this build only if you know what you are doing !!!
FAQ (Please Read!!)
What is CyanogenMod (by mad-murdock)?
CyanogenMod is the only open source rom, that runs on 40+ different devices. we got around 45 devs (people who really write code and tweak things to make it work better - in contrast to cooks, who only use winzip to exchange this vs. that binary thingie) constantly making cyanogenmod better.
as background, you might wanna know, that google usually releases the sourcecode to their products (where honeycomb is the first exception, but thats another matter, ICS will be open source again). but when google releases their source code, you cannot compile it for ANY phone and it runs on it. thats the first part, we jump it - make it compatible with all the phones we support.
once it basicly runs, its time for what we call "cm extras" - we modify a lot on the gui and the system to make it run better. some stuff you as a user will never see involving tweaking libs and kernels, and some stuff you as a user will see a lot, like including theme manager, dsp manager, cm settings (cm settings are about as huge as the normal settings are). those settings range from simple "dont display clock in status bar" to complex profiles (as known from old nokia phones) or remapping of some keys (long press home, remapp search button behavior)
its way to much to list it all here, but i can assure you, cm is fast, usually stable on most devices and VERY VERY customizable - both in grafical ways as also in behavior way.

Q: How do I install this?
A:
Latest version: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=galaxys2 (for when nightlies are working normally)
Check the md5sum if you want to be sure that the download worked (different OSes have different programs that do md5, on ubuntu it is md5sum that you run against the zip you download and compare to the md5sum number shown on the download website). ROMManager does this automatically for ROMs you download via ROMManager.
- First time flashing CM 7 to your Galaxy S2 (or coming from another ROM)?
Only for the International version of the Galaxy S2, US versions like the AT&T have their own device specific builds.
Note: sometimes you need to flash twice back to back without a reboot in the middle. The install should take a little time, if it happens very quickly, flash again.
Install via ClockworkMod (do not use ROMManager for initial install):
Make sure you're running a rooted device.
Root your device and install ClockworkMod Recovery (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118693)
Do a Nandroid backup!
WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition) - do it for real.
Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery.
Do not reboot! We mean it - do nothing except choose zip and continue next step (if you come back to us with permission issues in install, we will know you did not read the directions and will call you an idiot). If it just plain hangs, reboot directly back into ClockworkMod recovery and continue at the next step.
Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery, again (due to a bug in the install).
Reboot
Install the Google Addon through ROMManager which is easiest, but you can
download the gapps.zip and install via ClockworkMod recovery instead.
- Upgrading from earlier CM7?
ROM Manager method:
Install ROMManager Premium.
Flash ClockworkMod Recovery. Pick Samsung Galaxy S2.
Choose Download ROMs.
Pick the CyanogenMod Nightlies.
Check the Google Apps addon.
Check Backup current ROM!
Check wipe cache, dalvik cache.
Let ROMManager finish the installation.
Clockwork Mod method:
Download and push the ROM zip file to the sdcard.
Reboot into recovery.
Do a Nandroid Backup!
Install the ROM zip from sdcard (your Google apps will be backed up automatically)
There are no Google Apps bundled with CM ROMs, because Google asked Cyanogen to remove copyrighted apps. After flashing the rom, don't forget to flash Google Addon package if you want it. ROM Manager will allow you to flash it if you just go into it and after flashing the ClockworkMod recovery for Samsung Galaxy S2, choose Download ROMs, and pick Google Apps. Or download and push the gapps zip for CM7 from http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version#Google_Apps to the sdcard and flash it via ClockworkMod recovery.
- Going to another ROM from CM7?
You can go back and forth freely between CM7 and other ROMs via ROM Manager or ClockworkMod recovery as the file systems are the same and nandroid backup/restore works to go between ROMs.
Q: What are the known issues?
A: Issues that I can remember:
- Video playback - some formats are not recognized, use an alternative app for video playback
- Camera - some modes don't work
- TVout, MHL
- FMRadio
- Issues when using the 2G/3G-Switch
- Volume issues (some report too high, others too low)
Q: Where do I see the Changelogs?
A: http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=galaxys2 - this shows all the
changes that have gone into a nightly, including anything that is device specific to Galaxy S2 and anything that has gone into common code that is also included on Galaxy S2. If you see another device sometimes in the Galaxy S2 changelog, it is because the changes were done to common code and the repository is also included on the Galaxy S2.
Q: Can I flash over a previous version of CM7?
A: If updating from an already CM7 running SGSII phone, just flash the latest update zip file as it contains all the fixes from previous updates.
Q: I just installed and I don't see the Marketplace, cannot see GMail, cannot sync Contacts.
Q: I just installed and I don't see any Google Apps.
A: You need to install the Google apps. They are available in ROMManager. ROMManager also asks you if you want to install the Google Apps addon when you install via ROMManager.
Q: My phone is running too hot, my phone is not going into deep sleep
A: Try to isolate which application is using too much CPU. The first thing to try is to remove your media (video, music etc) files. Files recorded using Samsung camera, but other files as well, can frequently cause the stock Media Scanner to fail and go into an infinite loop. Then try to isolate which files are causing problems, and report them to us. If it isn't media, then it is some other application. Try to remove that application if it is a third-party application (and report a bug to them).
Q: I cannot find my media files that are on my external sd card
A: Look under /mnt/emmc as that is where CM7 mounts the external sd card as opposed to /mnt/sdcard/external_sd that Samsung ROMs use.
Q: Can I run Samsung Applications like Kies, Phone, Email, AllShare?
A: No. Any applications that use special calls into the Samsung TouchWiz framework will not work.
Q: I restored from Titanium Backup but my applications are not working
A: Do not restore system data, only restore application+user data. CM7 uses new system data and if you restore on top of it, things will not work.
Q: Your notification toggles are different than mine, how can I change them?
A: Go into Settings, CyanogenMod Settings, Interface, Notification power widget, Widget buttons
Q: My Notification bar Sound widget does not toggle through the options.
A: Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Interface > Notification Power Widgets > Widget Buttons > Sound Modes and set the modes you want it to toggle through.
Q: I really miss the accurate battery mods, can I flash these?
A: No, but you can go into Settings, CyanogenMod Settings, Interface, Status bar tweaks, "Battery percentage"
Q: Where can I get themes for this?
A: A quick search for "theme engine" on the market will produce a number of results, but there are some in the general Android Themes section
Q: Can I use the video player/music player/contacts/phone/launcher from a Samsung ROM?
A: No, anything hooking into Samsung's framework will not work on this ROM, there are plenty of alternatives in the market.
Q: Where can I get the Nexus S drivers?
A: Download and install the Android SDK here then download "Google USB Driver package, revision 4"
Once downloaded, right click on "Computer", "Manage", "Device Manager", "Nexus S", "Update Driver Software", and point it to wherever you installed the SDK
Q: How do I go back to a Samsung stock ROM?
A: Just use ClockworkMod or ROM Manager backup/restore facility to go back and forth between stock (or any other ROM) and CM7.
Q: Can I use ROM Manager to install or back up this ROM?
A: Yes.
Q: Why do I not see the nightlies in ROM Manager?
A: Nightly builds are only visible in the premium version of ROM Manager. Nightly builds should up in ROM Manager when the CyanogenMod buildbot builds the nightly successfully. Every new device needs to also get added to the ROM Manager manifest before it is available. But, the same files are also available at http://download.cyanogenmod.com when the buildbot successfully builds a nightly.
Q: Why can't I play .avi or .mkv files? They worked fine with Samsung's ROM.
A: Due to codec licensing issues, this can't be provided out of the box. Several apps from the marketplace should be able to replicate this feature (such as RockPlayer). We will also try to put these enhancements into CM7 ourselves.
Q: I encountered a bug, how do I find out if it's known and where can I report it?
A: Try to get the logcat output and last_kmsg to your report by:
Code:
desktop$ adb logcat > logcat.txt
desktop$ adb shell
# cat /proc/last_kmsg > /sdcard/last_kmsg (only if you had crash/reboot)
# dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt
# exit
desktop$ adb pull /sdcard/last_kmsg .
desktop$ adb pull /sdcard/dmesg.txt .
Attach the logcat.txt and last_kmsg files to the bug report. Of course, you need to have the android SDK installed to do this.
Hi !
Why we don't see Cyanogen Builds in ROM Manager Premium ?
Thanks & sorry for my bad English.
Nice Q&A here. This is a MUST READ before flashing CM7
Q: Why do I not see the nightlies in ROM Manager?
A: Nightly builds are only visible in the premium version of ROM Manager.

Answered 3 posts above.
Firstly, I love the first release of CM for the S2....very quick.
I have successfully replaced the samsung apps I liked, and i have gapps installed. One question is, now when I go into the market on my PC it says I have no Android devices to send the apps too.
On the S2, the market is fine.
any ideas?
I can see in Rom managet premium only cognition and darks rom. Is it normal? Anyone else witht the same stats?

Hello,
Is there any way I can increase vibration intensity? It is fine when I reboot it but after a minute the vibration becomes very weak to the point where I can barely feel it. (When typing and pressing "menu" or "back button" etc

It's a known issue of this ROM.
There is nothing to do for this time.
Cyanogen #1 !
Issue gonna be FIX, by next build's
i just have one question, someone said they used kg1 modem does that actually stay or would cm7 just overwrite it anyway?
since im too noob to post in development section i want to thank you all at teamhacksung for this
Also...why was the stock camera app replaced with one that is worse? (Camcorder is worse.) Its a great rom. But can someone explain this to me?

What is CyanogenMod (in less terse form - by mad-murdock)?
since i am a bit idle right now, i try to answer this.
cyanogenmod is the only open source rom, that runs on 40+ different devices. we got around 45 devs (people who really write code and tweak things to make it work better - in contrast to cooks, who only use winzip to exchange this vs. that binary thingie) constantly making cyanogenmod better.
as background, you might wanna know, that google usually releases the sourcecode to their products (where honeycomb is the first exception, but thats another matter, ICS will be open source again). but when google releases their source code, you cannot compile it for ANY phone and it runs on it. thats the first part, we jump it - make it compatible with all the phones we support.
once it basicly runs, its time for what we call "cm extras" - we modify a lot on the gui and the system to make it run better. some stuff you as a user will never see involving tweaking libs and kernels, and some stuff you as a user will see a lot, like including theme manager, dsp manager, cm settings (cm settings are about as huge as the normal settings are). those settings range from simple "dont display clock in status bar" to complex profiles (as known from old nokia phones) or remapping of some keys (long press home, remapp search button behavior)
its way to much to list it all here, but i can assure you, cm is fast, usually stable on most devices and VERY VERY customizable - both in grafical ways as also in behavior way.

Q: How do I install this?
A:
Latest version:
Temporarily while buildbot is down:
You can get it from ROM Manager (look for teamhacksung builds for Galaxy SII AT&T) or
http://www.multiupload.com/RT29P7AOFS (md5: c8115d0a01d0a47b286ff5c9cc504175)

Codeworkx just put up a test build (http://codeworkx.de/download/galaxys2att/cm7-galaxys2att-KANG.zip) - it should work, but right now none of us has an AT&T SGS2, so need someone else to try it. Install it via ClockworkMod recovery as explained in the second post.

Tried MIUI and CM7...
Obvious bugs are the back button not working.
But the major one is I can't hear anyone on a call and they can't hear me. Complete silence...both MIUI and CM7. Kernel issue? Known issue?
My order is in, should be seeing my Galaxy S II very soon, stoked!
I'll be testing just about everything pushed out once its here, I'll be reporting back as much as possible can't wait!

I didn't even know there was a MIUI for AT&T Samsung Galaxy SII yet. As far as no sound - we haven't been able to test anything ourselves as we don't have a device to test on yet (maybe in a couple of days). The code itself hasn't changed much, but it is possible you're seeing something valid that we'll have to fix.

Here is a full codefireX (cfX) ROM with 1.2GHz OC that is 5 touch enabled. You can use this with the 2 touch or 5 touch firmware, kudos to mik_os for the driver that does so.
codefireX is sort of a mixture between AOSP, AOKP, and CM10.
Here is their git: https://github.com/codefireX
Here is my kernel git: https://github.com/tonyp23/android_kernel_acclaim
Features:
Click HERE for a full cfX settings feature flowchart by BananaGranola (thank you)
NOT simply a re-named CM build
Built with a custom toolchain, strict aliasing, -O3 completely (including thumb_cflags), and other Linaro optimizations such as OOM/LMK changes.
Lots of extra settings in the codefireX settings panel
Please see this post on how to install the updated firmware if you'd like to have 5-touch. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...9&postcount=75
With that said, many huge thanks to everyone who has put so much effort into making this awesome. If I forgot you, let me know!
Kuzma30, chrmhoffman, mik_os, fattire, Hashcode, Rebellos, demetris_I, Succulent, CelticWebSolutions, eyeballer, Bauwks, CM team, TWRP team, codefireX team, TI, BN
Here's general instructions on how to proceed

It has a weird thing with the wifi icon, you may have to play with the codefirex settings and flick the 6 signal bars on then off again.
Nice! I'll give this a try.
Question, though. Any issues with apps disappearing due to sdcard issues? I know other roms have issues. Xda free is one app that I have issues with on the aokp build if I don't move it to internal.

There's a lot of different code and drivers between this and the sgt7 builds, I have not had any problem with the sd card on it.

The other is a build built with the sgt7 changes like demetris_i's builds, and this one is built off of the CodefireX repos with those extras.

I don't understand why people want pics so much, it's exactly the same appearance as all the other normal cm10 roms. It has simple multi-dpi interface compared to paranoidandroid, it has a different extra settings interface like aokp, other than those.. Nothing is different

Here is a full codefireX (cfX) ROM with 1.2GHz OC that is 5 touch enabled. You can use this with the 2 touch or 5 touch firmware, kudos to mik_os for the driver that does so.
codefireX is sort of a mixture between AOSP, AOKP, and CM10.
Here is their git: https://github.com/codefireX
Here is my kernel git: https://github.com/tonyp23/android_kernel_acclaim
Features:
Click HERE for a full cfX settings feature flowchart by BananaGranola (thank you)
NOT simply a re-named CM build
Built with a custom toolchain, strict aliasing, -O3 completely (including thumb_cflags), and other Linaro optimizations such as OOM/LMK changes.
Lots of extra settings in the codefireX settings panel
Please see this post on how to install the updated firmware if you'd like to have 5-touch. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...9&postcount=75
With that said, many huge thanks to everyone who has put so much effort into making this awesome. If I forgot you, let me know!

I also got the 'No File Context' warning when I flashed the ROM. I ignored it and it seems to not have caused any problems.
My experience also was that Titanium restore was *much* smoother and quicker with this ROM than with other CM10s for Nook.
It seems to be a nice, stable build so far.
I did get the error where the WiFi signal won't show up in the status bar. I've had no luck getting it to appear, but WiFi works just fine.

Yes you can safely ignore that error, confirmed by the main developer.
Also if you have the bizarre wifi bars bug you can still use the text meter

Somethings that could interfere or not needed
I notice in settings>codefirex>theme tweaks>status bar ..."Show Brightness Toggleslider" if checked get in the way of status bar view and Show Wifi network is check then that just duplicates AP name what on the bottom of status slide down menu. I don't have Dual-pane view or Force tableUI checked, so it may look different if you have those checked. I didn't get any errors on wifi but I did edit Widget buttons in settings>systems>notification drawer>widget buttons... checked and uncheck the widget I want and don't want. There also a half blue line on right top of the navigation bar.,,strange...sometime there's little dots trailing from the right side of the screen to that blue line.
Update:
Toggle the check box back and forth for "Hide signal bars", this will show the wifi signal in the status bar. Make sure that "Six bar signal icons" check box is not ckecked.
I don't know if this a new feature or an old feature that I just didn't notice is the power button that you can set for on demand deep sleep in Navigation bar; button#, action & icons.
Ok that blue bar on the bottom right corner that I mention earlier that I thought was weird is called the battery bar. Three games that I had no success in the past now two works.
Major heating issue charging while in use (interactive mode) is now controlled where I don't have to change to "conservative mode"while in use. Excellent
I have to say this hybrid ROM is the BOMB!!!!! LUV UV UV it. ...............so far, still testing.

Deep Sleep Results Update
Ok , before anyone of yousse Doctors get snippy at me, I'm not debating if others have different results base on their own findings.
Here my Diagnosee..eee.eeee after deep sleeping the NT16 for more than eight (8) hours using the power button on the navigation bar to deep sleep on demand, it loss one (1) percent or less because I woke it four (4) hours before to check with cpu spy. I screwed up the first video recording and that why you don't see the wifi zero signal to signal on and sd showing mounting in process.
What do you think Doctors?, here the video of the results
Update: There is still a heat issue in interactive mode plugin power while in use but not as extreme where I had to put it in a freezer to cool off. I guess if come with OC territory.

Titanium Backup (as long as it's installed before you change a ROM) will restore the UDID. I know the Pro version does this, not entirely sure about the free version.
App data usage
I notice that gapps was taken alot of the data memory so I froze both gapps and it services in titanium backup then defrost it to clear for more Free RAM showing. I'm hoping this would improve battery if I clear it Settings>Data usage ; apps listed. Is there any utilities in cm10 that would disallow apps to background in memory?
Ok, I found it while typing this message. Settings>Developer option>Background process limit . I wonder if I set it to No background processes would work and check Settings>Developer option>Don't keep activities work. Hopefully this will reduce battery drain.
CyanogenMod Rom for Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, SM-T900 (v2wifixx)
NEW VERSION CyanogenMod 12.1, "Lollipop" version 5.1.1
CM 12.1 compiled for the SM-T900 from source code
These are unofficial releases of CyanogenMod for the Samsung Tab Pro 12.2 SM-T900 (v2wifixx). CyanogenMod is an aftermarket firmware for phones and tablets based on the open-source Android operating system. It offers features not found in the official Android based firmwares of vendors. These ROM's are compiled from CM sources, and based on CM ports by crpalmer for the Tab Pro 10.1 (SM-T520), he deserves the credit, this would not be possible without his work. I also want to thank Valera1978 for his work on our sister tablet, the SM-P900.
WARNING: This is released without warranty of any kind. Use of this software could damage or destroy your tablet. Use at your own risk.
How to install:
1. Root device
2. Download Rom and Gapps
3. Install custom recovery, recommend TWRP Tab Pro 12.2 (v2wifixx), can be flashed with Odin or from existing recovery.
You may also use Clockwork Recovery, a custom recovery img file can be installed using dd and Terminal Emulator. First download to /sdcard, and install to /dev/block/mmcblk0p10.
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p10
4. Backup stock with custom recovery.
5. Flash Rom and Gapps.
6. Enjoy

Source files for CyanogenMod for the Samsung Tab Pro 12.2 SM-T900 (v2wifixx) on Github
Building CyanogenMod 12.1 for the SM-T900 from source is not too difficult. You do need basic computer knowledge especially with linux. CyanogenMod has wikis on how to compile for different devices. If you setup for picassowifi, just add the local manifest under .repo, then
Code:
repo sync
and the kernel, vendor and device files will automatically download from Github. Then
Code:
source build/envsetup.sh
and
Code:
brunch v2wifixx
Good luck and have fun.

Thank you chhaggerty. This CM11 built directly from the cyanogen source code is very smooth and reactive. It's runs better than the predecessors, as it is created directly from cm11 source code and adapted to the SM-T900 instead of being a direct port from another device. I have fortunate to run this version in beta for 5 or 6 days now and I have not seen any issues in this release, but from the screen rotation that only seem to react if the app has a default setting. You can use the Set Orientation, or the Ultimate Rotation Control app to pick the rotation you desire.
This list of functions, based on weaknesses in other builds and ports for the Tab/Note family, have been tested without any issues:
- mtp - to activate go to Settings/About tablet/ and tap 8 times on Build number - The menu will now have Settings/{ } Developer options/ activated. Check mark USB debugging notify.
- adb
- External SD - I used JRummy's SD KitKat Fixer to allow my apps to write to the removable card (common w. all cm ROM's)
- USB OTG including USB storage
- Off-mode charging
-----------------------------------------
- Lid sensor is working, and no SOD's has been observed
- IR blaster is working, i've used IR2.0
- OC settings - located in Settings/Performance/
- Advanced reboot - to activate go to Settings/About tablet/ and tap 8 times on Build number - The menu will now have Settings/{ } Developer options/ activated. Check mark Advanced reboot.
-----------------------------------------
- Play Store
- Google Play movies download and playback
- Google Play streaming Movies & TV
- DRM - tested with Audible, Google Books and Amazon Kindle
-----------------------------------------
- Zona
- Popcorn Time - need upgrade to latest version 2.3 beta, includes built-in VPN and Chromecast support with subtitles, earlier version timed out
- YouTube 720p playback - 1020p possible with small hack, 1440p will work w. v5.9.0.12
- Netflix
-----------------------------------------
- Chromecast with #MirrorEnabler hack, allowing for screen cast
- MHL connector
- Miracast
-----------------------------------------
- Capacitive lights - I assume this is the backlights for the capacitive buttons
- Capacitive keys
- Home button - correct function performed
- Brightness manual + auto
- Vibrator
-----------------------------------------
- GPS lock and voice directed navigation
- WiFi both 2.4 GHz & 5 GHz are working
- Bluetooth
- Microphone
- Audio on both speakers
- Headphones
-----------------------------------------
- Camera
- Torch
- Camera Sensors
-----------------------------------------
- Xposed Framework and modules - need re-initialization after each boot (common to all cm ROM's)
- Superuser
- Hangouts Dialer phone calls via Hangouts
-----------------------------------------
The following are standard limitations and options for cm11:
If you need write access to your external SD-card i suggest to d/l JRummy's SD KitKat Fixer and if you need init.d support d/l Uni-init by Ryuinferno. If you think to much heat is building up use Performance/Profile set to Power save, Performance/Processor/CPU governor/ set to ondemand, in addition to increase battery time you can set Wi-Fi/Advanced/Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep/ to Only when plugged in and make sure the Wi-Fi/Advanced/Wi-Fi optimization/ is checked and reduce Display/Sleep/ to below 1 minute. You can also use some apps to improve battery eg Easy Battery Saver, or the more sophisticated AutoCon+ Save Battery & Data and and to put hanging apps to hibernation Greenify that I believe require Xposed Installer. To improve charging time, you can use an app eg Faster Charger. Finally, I have also used PurePerformances in order to further improve the performances and VIPER4AndroidFX to allow for louder speaker sound and enhanced listening experience.
I would love to see someone building an AOSP kernel containing eg fast charge, and OC, cifs etc. as these will never be part of a true cm11 kernel.
bonuzzz has an overclocked kernel with source code for the P-900 TouchWiz, but it runs just as well on the T-900, that could be used as a base for conversion into AOSP, if someone is willing to give it a try.
much better than the stock rom. Thank you.
Hi,
Display mirror over Chromecast first works, now after upgrading some apps (google Play) it stops working.
I can cast via YouTube, but the Chromecast is not listed in Display Mirror.
Any ideas?

In order to get Screen Mirroring over Cromecast to work on the T-900, you will need to apply a hack, #MirrorEnabler, http://forum.xda-developers.com/hardware-hacking/chromecast/experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193, wherein you activate: Mirrorstatus and QuickSettings Mirror. After this you should see the option Cast screen in the dropdown menu in the upper left corner. If it's not there uncheck, and recheck the options in #MirrorEnabler, also #MirrorEnabler require #Superuser allowed, but the question should pop-up when you activate the hack.

Are you talking about 5G Speed Up Internet Browser (no issues), 5G NET Softphone, or what app specifically? Apparently you meant WiFi over the 5GHz band, it should work though.

Yep, everything has worked so far (include IR). The rotation still does not work but it is not a problem. I can use an app to fix it. Now we just have to wait for cyanogenmod to release cm 12 (android 5.0) and it is perfect. Can't wait for project Volta. It makes my nexus 5 stand by battery lasts so long. Thanks a lot, OP.
I wish they could include multi window on cm althou they said they are not going to.... or custom rom based of cm with multi window would be nice

Sorry for a bit of a silly question.....everything i have (twrp and cpu z apps) say i have a v2wifiue. However, when I try to install i get the error message that says it is a v1. I am not sure how to proceed. I have a tab pro sm t900 purchased in USA at best buy, again, thinking it is v2. Please advise, i am looking forward to this ROM. Thanks for all of your efforts.
----EDIT----
I went into the build prop just to see the fingerprint and build id(s) and it is all 100% V2. I hope this will help someone identify my problem. Thanks again
I installed this today and everything was working great for the inital setup. Upon trying to download and finalize all my app setups I started to have issues. Examples are google play music, bitdefender, and facebook for this part. Play music started downloading all the music fine till about half way, then got stuck. Bitdefender was successfully setup but when starting inital scan it got to 1% and doesnt get past it. Facebook opens up then autoloads my email in the username but when i try to type it locks up and crashes. Tried to get it to reboot and it also locked. Held power button till finally reset and when it started back up it auto started downloading songs. It downloaded a few songs again and then locked up again. Any ideas of what I can try to get this working better? Also anyone know of a keyboard that has a floating keyboard like the samsung one that we have on the 12.2? Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Everything seems to work fine except tab hanging when left in stand by for more than an hour and playing with lid cover on n off several times I have to hard restart, did factory reset twice, any suggestions appreciated greatly.

I haven't had any similar problems. Did you do a clean install with wipe of data and cache? You could wipe cache from recovery and see if that helps.

I rooted my Moto E LTE 2015 from Virgin Mobile and installed CyanogenMod 13 Marshmallow. I have noticed a few problems.
1. Unable to write to internal or external storage.
2. Settings force close upon opening carrier settings in settings.
3. Performance settings don't always stick.
4. Battery settings sometimes force close in settings.
5. Random reboots.
When is a stable build going to be available? I'd like to know.

I've discovered why Battery Settings force close...
CM13 has bugs with it's builtin theme engine. Still have most of the other problems though.
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll check it out sometime.
Well cm13 is actually very stable and bugless for most users. I think something might have gone wrong with installation. The internal storage problem might be a kernel issue and not a cm13 one, I'd try updating the kernel and if that doesn't solve anything full wipe and install everything again.
