Hello guys, I have a question about my galaxy tab but firstly I must say you 'I have searched everything about this question on xda, on google and I know I am a noob on xda..'
My company gave me a galaxy tab 10.1 and It has an android 3.2 but It is limited. Please don't ask why because It is limited
If I root it, I will not use in my company because my company have a big screen (50 inch) and my tablet cannot connect. But I want to use a normal android on my tab.
So I've thinked and I decided to use my tablet wit 2 OS. one is normal android one is limited android. So how can I install a normal android without don't remowe , don't damage limited android.
I'm sory for my English because my english is not well enough..

Someone can feel free to correct me if Im wrong but... I dont believe it is possible to Dual Boot on the GTAB 10.1... At least not at this time. Maybe in the future...
But i heard my friend, his friends friend has done it and he has had 2 OS now..
And, why do you think like that?

Well firstly... If your friends, friends, friend did it then why not ask him / her how to do it?
Secondly, I BELIEVE that in order to "dual boot" the device you would need to do so from an SD card and the GTAB does not have an sd card slot.
Thirdly, IF it was possible to do then there would be HUNDREDS of threads here on XDA about it already.
I wish I can ask him.. But at that moment I can't.
And yes i think you are right but I am looking for a little probability. As a result this is a machine and I think people can control it
any idea?

edit:
And galaxy sII has dual boot (I found a link but I can't send because I'm noob and haven't got 8 posts. But I wrote it 'reson for editing')
Both of them have got arm cortex process. Just Gtab hasn't got a sd card. only Is it a problem?

Really, if the device was issued to you by your company it's not really yours to putz around with. Not to be a party pooper, but why not just get your own device to destroy?

Oh my dude, I'm bored from listening this words. Everbody say something like that. But My question isn't about this. I know how can I use my tab. I know what do I want. Just I need your help about dual booting. Just...

Yes you are right.. But do you have an idea how can I flash a difference bootloader to my gtab and how can I divide (partition) my internal sd card (in gtab) without damage my OS in gtab..

I'm sory.. I don't understand Q&A is a forum that I need..
Download "switchme" from the market and give it a try. That's your only option. It's still beta, so don't expect much right now.
BTW- if you don't own it, I strongly suggest you don't mess with your tablet, especially if you don't know enough to find this stuff on your own. Also, you better do a lot of reading before you mess with it; somehow I get the feeling you'll be back here in a day or two complaining that your tablet isn't working anymore...
Some tablets support this without SD card
For example the Archos IT tablets support dual boot, namely one in 'normal' mode, and one in 'developers mode', but what I've seen until now it looks like SGT does not work that way.
okey and I have a problem too..
I couldn't flash any cwm version to my tab with odin (already my tab doesn't work like a flash bellek even in download mode).
for ex.: with a cwm.tar.md5 I have this error: Invalid binary signature

Koush having free time? Good luck with that.
Although, I've seen generous donations help people create free time for some developers. I don't know if it would help in this issue. I wouldn't expect anything in return for a donation of any size though. Otherwise it wouldn't be called a donation but payment for services.

I don't understand how can I install cwm to my tab via odin. And I don't understand why my tab (in download mode) is invisible for my comp. I can't see it. Only I can see it like a internet modem not like a flashdisk.. what is the reason? any idea?

You need drivers from the Samsung site.
...And a lot of reading before you get into something advanced. Makes me wonder if you really are ready to brick that company tablet you have there. It would be a ssssssssssssssssshame (Minecraft reference)

OK, imma recent migrating bird from the sinking WinMo ship.
Just got this phone from LG, nice phone, but the flashing guides here aren't so easy to understand
I'll quote a 6 line instruction from the Prime/Megatron ROM thread which is
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=870640
How to flash:
First, reboot into recovery via 3-button-combo, ADB, terminal, w/e.
Partition SDcard (swap: 0, ext: 512), ext2-ext3, then ext3-ext4 it.
Wipe data (data,cache,dalvik-cache,ext).
Connect the device to PC, copy Megatron over to the SDcard, disconnect.
Flash it via "flash zip from sdcard"
Reboot

I have no idea what all that means, and so are millions of sad puppies who migrates from WinMo's or dreaded Dumb Phones like the ones they sell in 7-11
SO, the point is (you can stop scrolling now)
PLEASE PLEASE PLLLEEEEAAASE make a easy guide for flashing, possibily a video. Or you could make it easy enough for me to understand, and ill make the guide.
BTW, in the long term, it WILL educate FURTHER n00bs.
Thanks in advance. Sorry for the *****ing. Love u guys
OK, OK, OK, you have got me!! I will prepare some "dictionary" for all noobs. Maybe it will sounds crazy, but when I logged-in I had no idea what android is. OO is my first android phone. I have got everythink from whole this forum, but I was there since thread about P500 started so it wasn't too hard catch and read every post here. So, all informations are there, but sometimes is not possible find them.
So i just have to read everything? Optimus One Android Dev or General?
Great! Thanks a lot
But gonna go to sleep.. I'm sorry lol this is my last week of winter break and its midnight. Bye!

About 95% of posts it will be useless because there are also some question, helps, and another stuff. There is too much words and useless trash. You also need know basics of unix-like systems to understand what are guys (and you) trying to do in adb shell, what is root and for what it is, what # mean in command line, and so on.
custom ROM is mainly for experienced user. At least, experienced in unix-like system, because android is based on it. Tools like busybox bringing next tools known from unix and some programs needs it for running. And another and another words and name what is normal for advanced user, not for n00bs here.
Because that all stuff it takes some time that I will have some usable noob dictionary.
This is a good and pretty much complete guide.
forum.androidcentral.com/lg-optimus-s-roms-hacks/48543-idiots-guide-rooting-custom-roms-optimus-s-edition.html
Rooting is the same, you just have to change some commands for the custom recovery but once you get there you'll know. And I recommend rooting via Adb, its easier for later.
btw, don't know if its a problem posting the link, if it is, sorry.
One thread is enough!

Hi All.
It's my thread - port Android on Wave S8500(also S8530).
Wellcome developers and designers.
Last state of project:
06/13/2011 Now working on Android 2.3.3 (Source GB for GT-I9000 and M130K)
not working - modem and GPS.
04/04/2011 Memory allocation now is correct!
05/11/2011 I have full schematic for phone
and we're ready to get a fully working kernel.
Full decriptions of GPIO is attached.
source for kernel and initramfs here:
github.com/Oleg-k/S8500_Kernel_2.6.32
github.com/Oleg-k/initramfs_2.6.32_S8500

Please expect not too much from me.
1.
My other handsets are from 2006... NEVER hold Android handset in my own Hand...
2.
I'm Windows User.
Linux/Unix ... I know only 1 or 2 Commands
I've never formated my SD Card nor any Harddrive with Linux ext4, JFS, ReiserFS or XFS
3.
I NEVER worked with IDA or something similar.
Installed yes, but then my Head exploded
Brain too small.
4.
Many missing parts...
Why I should kill my alive handset, as I have no real chance to reanimate it...
- no Riff Box
- no PCB to play with
I AM NOT the right man to port Android nor to find Security hole
You can make this post sticky.
NO joke, expect not too much from me. We can learn together... but this takes time.
Many time. Months, maybe years...
Best Regards
after many many variant, i found the right boot+sbl+param.lsf for kernel message output.
this is my last bootlogo.
how it can be seen, there is a problem with memory allocation.

Great of you to keep us posted! \o/
hmmm... as a matter of interest - I noticed you're using kernel 2.6.35.7, when I look at the original I9000 source that's 2.6.29....
what does that source say as to why it failed in bootmem.c @ line 341?
Not enough memory, permissions, wrong offset?

No i mean Meteor gave me some (seeminly non existant) version of the wave that has 512 internal storage. Im pretty sure its meant to have 2-4gb at the minimum.

-about 420Mb for user files;
-about 1Gb for system files (os+apps+widget+java)

We can think about running SBL or any other bootloader (anybody with sources for that?) through the FOTA hole as I described in the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1020444
This way we don't need JTAG for initial flashing. It'd be also good to perform testing without touching BADA in the NAND, but we either need to reorganize partitions or boot from SD card
Best Regards,
mijoma
I think an combination will lead to success... so work together.
At this status it is maybe tooo risky to play without JTAG.
As we not know, how Android will handle Memory...
Okay, correction. I don't know.
In worst case scenario you need JTAG to reanimate Wave...
We have 2 steps/parts.
Android part.
Display, Kernel, Memory, etc...
This part is mandatory in my opinion.
Then second part, how to start Android. Then there are several theories...
BootLoader, No BootLoader, FOTA... inject via JTAG into RAM...
internal Memory or Dual Boot from SD Card...
Anyway, without proper modified Android part we can't use all our Security Holes.
As more infos we have, better, as more working solution we have.
So more chance to improve something.
At the moment we can only improve Video Quality.
Best Regards
Mijoma,
I totally agree with you,maybe this is the way to deploying android on S8500.
But now,i think about build working kernel for our s8500.
Maybe you helping with analize memory init on original bootloader?
like this - http://code.google.com/p/jetdroid/wiki/OriginalDramInit
Regards
Seems like using mijoma's discovery you should be able to replace booting and maybe make it to boot from SD card using a open source booter a compatible android kernel with selfmade drivers.
Maybe that could be the way, sadly we'd lose internal storage since we wouldn't be touching bada partition, anyway Android should be working fine from a SD card, It does properly on other handsets which internal storage is nothing more than a microSD card instead of flash memory.
I think losing 2GB on internal and XMB on microSD is a good deal for having android on our handsets. Happily I got 16GB SD on my wave xP. Anyway once you achieved that we could gather to use the internal flash memory partition
Jioma I suggest you to work with adfree (along your knowledge) and oleg_k they're our wave masters, baybe you together could gather to achieve this great project. I require you to work on this oh please jioma=(
Ok thats great news! Finally we have a method of booting other platforms on the Wave. What we need is as much information on the s5800 chipset as we can get so we know exactly what to compile and what drivers are needed in the linux kernel for android. Someone get in touch with Cyanogen mod and ask him for help and offer him a wave or something ha.

What do we need?
Multiloader: MegaUpload
zImage & stuff: MegaUpload
EXT2 IMG Filesystem: Part1 Part2
FOTA: MegaUpload (Restored old one)
Ok before we start. The tutorial is now 100% Rewritten. But you still need to read carefully
Notice
Clean out your ENTIRE bada storage first cause we will need almost everything of it
Notice2: This project is still in ALPHA Stage. So don't expect a fully awesome working version yet.
In this version all KNOWN fixes are implented except for root
1. Download all the needed files, when you've done so extract the ZIP with the zImage stuff in it and place it in you bada storage root. (you can extract the .001 with 7-zip)
(i made the Images URLS's because they're to big)
1b. Connect your phone and put it in Mass Storage mode
You should copy your files like the Images below
Bada Storage root:
http://ShadowAS1.com/badadroid/storageroot1.png
This should be inside your storage root:
http://ShadowAS1.com/badadroid/storageroot2.png
This should be inside your galaxyboot folder:
http://ShadowAS1.com/badadroid/storageroot3.png
So inside the sorage root should be your galaxyboot folder and the makext2img.sh
inside the galaxyboot folder should be zImage, SBL.bin and the .IMG file
2.Then you should shut down your phone and boot it in download mode:
Vol Down+Camera+Power and you will see DOWNLOAD MODE on the screen
3.Open up multiloader and take over my config here:
http://shadowas1.com/badadroid/multiloader.png
When you click port search the name "LISMORE" should/can popup next to the right COM port
Now click download and wait for it to finish
Okay, now your phone is ready for the first android run
Boot it by holding power+menu+vol up: (see image)
http://shadowas1.com/badadroid/IMG_0052.JPG
Then this should popup (after the SGS screen)
DO NEVER, ABSOLUTELY NEVER PULL OUT BATTERY OR TOUCH THE PHONE IN THIS PROCESS
http://shadowas1.com/badadroid/IMG_0050.JPG
This can take up to 5 minutes.
Now, Two things can happen
1. The phone boots bada
2. The phone shuts down
In any of this cases your phone is absolutely fine. If you have case 2 you can boot bada to check if everythings alright if you wish.
Assuming we all boot bada shut down the phone again
Boot android in the normal way by holding the Power and Call key
=====Removing Android from your bada partitions======
On request i add this one, In order to remove all android stuff put the "mkext2images-remove.sh" in your bada storage root and boot recovery mode again
Goodluck, ShadowAS1
Good Luck,
ShadowAS1

Now I'm in the First-time Run section and when I start Android (end call and then start call buttons) the screen flashes, then the Galaxy S screen appears. After 6-7 seconds, blank screen and... Samsung Wave and Bada screens with bada startup!
I saw other member in other post having the same issue, but he had still no answer.
Any idea?
Yeap, still same problem as mcmollo after following this guide as well ...
Works for me
Thanks

Yeah, as stated in your and in Shadow's guide.
Yeap, same here: XXJL2 provided in the tutorials.
I have a SanDisk 2GB class 4 microSD card and created a FAT16 primary partition (1GB) and a EXT2 primary partition (1GB).

Yes. I repeated the tutorial 3 times, taking care of doing it exactly as you say. But Bada still loading after Galaxy screen.
Maybe compatibility problem with the SD card?.
Mine is KINGSTON MICRO SD HC 8GB CLASS 4
I created a FAT16 primary partition (4GB) and then the EXT2 partition (4GB).
Will we install waveII (s8530) ?
SORRY SORRY I forgot something important. Read the tuto again. you'll notice the edit (because there's abig fat "EDIT" in front of it) This may fix the problems

How do you calibrate the touchscreen in ics?
the calibration.ini trick does not seem to work
(I can't even find the TSCalibration program anywhere ...)

Do the calibration through CWM. Run the "echo ..." command here after an "adb shell".
no such directory as /sys/devices/platform/tegra_touch on ics

I know. Which is why I suggested doing it using CWM. See post #2, above, again.
I *did* read that - but I have only the faintest conception
of what an adb shell is. I don't particularly want to go to
the trouble of installing the sdk for which I have no need.
That's why I *hoped* the simpler way in the original post
might work.

FYI: I don't think you need to install the entire SDK just to run ADB. The adb executable (and, its libraries) alone should suffice--it does on Linux.

There is a simpler method now. Go through that post again. I've got a zip file there which you can flash using CWM.

that's great. There's a warning about which kernels work but
I assume that the kernel in ics is OK, right?
Edit: sorry, you meant the CWM kernel so that's OK
Edit2: and it works fine - many thanks

coby 1125 ics touch screen calibrate
Could any of you please help. I upgraded the coby from gb to ics using the various techniques listed. I was eventually successful, however, I can't really use it because the touchscreen seems to be backwards, and mirrored. If I'm not mistaken, it seems calibrated for the 8127, where mine is 1127 10" widescreen. the "about" displays it as Model# mid8127, o.s. ver 4.0.3. I can't use any aps to correct since no file manager is present, and it is next to impossible to type through get jar. I couldn't follow the directions on this thread keenly, so please explain step by step. Though I got ics to work, somehow, I'm a rookie, and don't understand tech stuff that much. I have access to ubuntu 12.04, and windows, so I can connect the tablet, which I have done, but I don't understand how to use abd, nor cwmmanger. I tried, but got confused, though I was on windows 7. Please give me the steps in plain terms how I may use ts_calibrate, or any other method to c orrect the touch issue. If there were a way to access the start menu or file responsible and edit that. Such was the case on another tablet of mine the wm mid8650, where a similair issue occured installing uberoid. I had to edit for the 8" screen vs the primary 7"
Thanks!

You should talk to the guys who created the ICS for your tablet. They're the ones who'll be able to help you.

The steps in this thread are specific to a) the Tegra 2 Harmony-based tablets manufactured by Malata (eg. the ViewSonic gTablet) and b) to the stock or stock-derived kernels for those tablets.

I see, missed that. Thanks anyway, but the version is initially from coby germany i presume, but I may have picked mine up from a thread link, and since I've visited many souces, I'm not sure. I could contact coby germany, but not sure how forthcoming they would be. Thanks anyway! I think this needs to be done on sd card some how.
Thank you, rajeevvp!!!! Flashing the zip file through CWM has definitely made touch sensitivity miles better. Working great now!!!
I was just wondering if there was any available (or TWRP) or a substitute for a generic tablet
Maybe it's too early but I'm interested too, even for a cyanogenmod rom

My issue are 2 things the constant ads that pop up (minor issue) and second is the space, very low space.... I have an 32gb sd card and I'd like to use that as the primary storage, but since the tablet is kit Kat switching the storage around isn't done the same as its done in jelly bean and from what I read it can only be done by flashing in CMW recovery because ads to sd doesn't always work
I have exactly the same your problems! I can't understand why they partition the main memory when they could use the whole space to install apps... And I want to remove that damn ads popups too!
My model is recognized as softwinner "V11", I'd like to know if CM designed for other similiar tablets works...

Yup im certain that we have the same tablet because mines is also softwinner V11 lol
Hi guys. I've got an a33 quad core tablet badged ciprotec but I know it's allwinner based (obviously). Have you guys managed to get yours rooted? Mine runs 4.4.2 kvt49l. It's OK for messing around on but I need to practice my developing skills!! Cheers!
That tab is should already rooted I have one too but I found the preinstalled root doesn't work properly. Cant remember quite how i got it working but i think i used supersu to delete and reinstall the root script or I might have had to hook it up to the pc with a bit of software for flashing allwinners that I found. When you do have it rooted get gl2sd if your running kitkat so you can use the external sd for some of the bigger app installs rather than the rather small internal sd, but before that make sure the write permissions are enabled to sd there are a few Apps on the market that can do this. Has anybody heard anything on cwm or twrp yet?
Managed to get it done using vroot! Yay!! It's mine at last!
Hi all,
I've rooted my device and accidentally removed the systemui.apk so now my status bar etc is missing.
So far I've been trying to restore it from several Roms and other user posts, however, it looks like as if the model etc has to match my environment. So here I go, could someone post their systemui.apk???
Cheers!
Bump
Anyone??

Its a root app.. It'll come up as malware.... Use kingoroot.. Works fine.
I have this tablet as well, I have it rooted but still have not found a way to get around the ads that popup. Has anyone been able to mod this or delete the script that is causing the ads.
"edit"
found a link for AllWinner Demo Lock (trojan) Removal Tool cannot post the link because I have not posted 10 posts, but if you google it is easy enough to find.
"edit"
did not fix problem with ads

Windows ADB driver??
I have a new A33 tablet, which I cannot get it rooted, because I cannot find a working Windows ADB driver for it - either for Windows 8.1 x64 or Windows 7 x64.
The MTP driver works (I can transfer files), but I cannot find the "Android" driver for the ADB connection.
I tried the Rockchip "RK driver assistant" - no luck.
If you have a working ADB connection to an Allwinner A33 tablet, could you perhaps share the Windows ADB drivers here?
TIA

Try this
A33 Twrp
I made a TWRP for A33, A23,A20 and A31s models over on TechKnow . Some of them are posted but I think I have yet
to post all of them on the Public Downloads... I will make an effort to get them all posted soon. Offhand I do not
recall the specs I used though I am thinking all used gslx Touchscreens.. I will post here again the specs of the Tabs
they are for and a link to where they are posted once I am sure they are up ... The delay in posting them has
been the installer, I was working with another person since I have no A33 on making an installer that will
work on all of the tab models from ADB, also I am working pretty heavily on A31s Dev at present and have
allowed my other projects to fall behind even though some are essentially finished as in this case.
Thanks
