[P4Wifi] Android 6.0.1,latest update of Subway Surf fails to run & Flashlight flash - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

[P4Wifi] Android 6.0.1,latest update of Subway Surf fails to run & Flashlight flash
So I wanted to report 4 problems with this rom, that I found while testing it, since yesterday.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-10-1/development/rom-android-6-0-marshmallow-t3266663
I am using an Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi only tablet with this rom the camera works but the flash does not work that is the first problem I had tried to turn it on, or set it to auto but it does not seem to be able to flash the light on at all so far under this build of the rom, I understand that these problems will be fix as the rom makes updates to the software.
Second thing is I tried to run the game called Subway Surf which displays a message saying it can't run, on the hardware it reads failure to initialize! Your hardware does not support this application, sorry! ,
The last version that worked on my hardware is 1.47.1 on 11 26 2015, the Christmas version displays an message saying it does not support my Samsung galaxy tablet 10.1 it has an failure to initialize! Your hardware does not support this application, sorry!. So I can't use the Christmas update. the app problem has to do with the update not the aosp version, sorry about that I downgrade the app and it runs again the last version to work on this hardware is 1.47.1 from 11 26 2015 .
this app was working under aosp-5.1.1-p4wifi-20151031 on the Subway surf version 1.47.1 from 11 26 2015, the Christmas update gets the message saying failure to initialize! Your hardware does not support this application, sorry
their is an bug when the tablet is shutdown and is pluged in charging the normal percentage numbers don't show up anymore since going to the 6.0 version, this bug I am guessing will also be fixed when a new build comes out. otherwise I have not yet found anymore problems that I can think of besides these 3 things during my trying the new build.
1. Camera hardware flash is not working at all on the build, so you can't really take night photo if you wanted to, their going to look dark with the flash option.
2. 3D video games like Subway Surf are broken and will not play. that one game called Fruit Ninja Free plays but it seems to slow down at times, making me think that its 3D related.
3. Kindle app had crashed on me opening ebooks a few times on aosp-6.0-p4wifi-20151211 build.
4. the charging icon when tablet is off, is missing its charging numbers that show the percentage of the charge, pluged into the usb port of the computer, have not tried the power plug but I am guessing it also would lack the numbers from this build.
5. it would be nice if kodi app could be made to work on our hardware , since you can install it from the play store, but you get an hardware message on your tablet saying its not supported has to do with no support for Tegra 2 based hardware.
weblink here, http://kodi.tv/download/ , their used to be an old version of xbmc app that worked on version that came before 5.1.1 before it changed its name, an port of it worked but crashed on 5.1.1 and maybe on 6.0 I think didn't test it on new version. our tablet needs a version that supports Tegra 2 support for kodi to run.
you can read these about why they say its not supported. so the builds that had Tegra 2 support under xbmc only worked with android before the 5.1.1 version, it always crashed under this version. not even sure anyway has an working version of kodi app that runs under this tablet, since I can't find unofficial support for it at all besides the forum links to the old xbmc app with Tegra 2 support that no longer runs with current android versions.
http://kodi.wiki/view/Android
anyway I hope reporting these helps the build so these things can get fixed for aosp 6.0 p4wifi models tablets. I can't seem to post under the topic page
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-10-1/development/rom-android-6-0-marshmallow-t3266663
So that's why I am posting this here instead, So I hope they read this and can get at least the 3D games working in the next build if possible, otherwise I may want to go back to 5.1.1 until I can play games again on the tablet, I didn't try to see if the camera can take the pan scan mode photo yet with the google camera app, but not if that's working under 6.0 or not, but sometimes I do need the flash so that why I may downgrade my tablet until this gets fixed, but I hope future builds will get these things fixed I hope, its good a good job getting the rom working in the first place, but you know I can't really tell the difference between 5.1.1 and 6.0 they look almost alike just one can play the 3D games, and the other one needs work, its a good start it seems stable and that's also a good thing about the 6.0 version.
This is the one that I installed onto my tablet below
p4wifi: WIFI only tablet
aosp-6.0-p4wifi-20151211.zip
I was using [ROM][Unofficial][AOSP] Android 5.1.1 Lollipop on version aosp-5.1.1-p4wifi-20151031.zip
before I did a clean install of aosp-6.0-p4wifi-20151211.zip the camera flash I think was working with that version, so when I clean install the new one I think that's when the flash stoped working.
to my tablet, it does run ok besides these small problems and the Bluetooth sort of works if you turn it on, you can connect to an Bluetooth audio hardware, my sound bar works with 6.0 on connect to it, at least on my tablet that worked, but on reboot of the tablet it does disable Bluetooth by default.

[Q] Has anyone installed Honeycomb a2.1

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.

When you update do you have to reflash the tablet?
Where can I get the honeycomb build for the point of view tablet,

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.

Amazon Kindle App Broken on AOSP 5.1.1

Realizing that Samsung (long ago) abandoned th P7510 (p4wifi), I rooted and installed Lollipop 5.1.1 by decatf. Fabulous! Love the speed improvements. Happy the Samsung junk is gone. The past month or so has been great UNTIL.......
I am on a cross country trip and ran out of paperback books. "No problem, I will just buy some books from Amazon and read them with the Kindle App."
Oh, s**t, the Amazon Kindle App is happy to let me buy and download ebooks, but when I try to READ a book, the Kindle App crashes and drops me back to the desktop.
Does anyone have the Amazon Kindle App working on the AOSP 5.1.1 ROM?
Can anybody suggest how to troubleshoot this problem? I have deleted and reinstalled the Kindle App. Cleared cache. The app let's me download books, but crashes every time I try to read ANY book (have tried several).
(I would have posted there, but "newbies" are not allowed to post in Development forums.)
decatf is a bloody genius as far as I am concerned. Without his ROM, I would have tossed this tablet.
kindle app update will crash on both 5.1.1 and 6.0.1 too I think.
it crashes under AOSP 6.0.1 ROM too , I just wanted to let you know that on the new version, it also crashes on some ebook title not all of them crash when opening, its almost random on 6.0 when the kindle app will crash. not sure if their going to be an fix to this problem anytime soon.
Which 6.0.1 ROM

Where did you get a 6.0.1 ROM for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (p4wifi)?
My impression was that decatf ran into a roadblock with Marshmallow and said, "That's all folks! Nothing after 5.1.1
I really have nothing to lose by giving Marshmallow a shot on this tablet, UNLESS..... are there other apps that you have found do not work on 6.0.1 ?
Thanks

The rom is right here, but some features are not working like for example I can't run the game Subway Surf update The last version that worked on my hardware is 1.47.1 on 11 26 2015, the Christmas version displays an message saying it does not support my Samsung galaxy tablet 10.1 it has an failure to initialize! Your hardware does not support this application, sorry!. So I can't use the Christmas update for the game its not related to the AOSP version but the game app itself is broken.
and the camera flashlight flash hardware part is not working either, it says the camera is working on the person page below but I can't get my camera flash at night to go on when taking photos.
The other thing is the crashing of kindle app when opening some ebooks, otherwise they do load.

p4wifi: WIFI only tablet.
aosp-6.0-p4wifi-20151211.zip
above is the build that I tried on my tablet. I don't think the 3D hardware is working with this build because the 3D running game called Subway Surf will not play at all and Fruit Ninja Free plays but it seems to slow down at times during the cutting of the fruits. I hope its fixed in future builds, Bluetooth somewhat works for my Bluetooth soundbar hardware but you have to turn it on each time you boot the android. and the percentage text is missing from the charging mode when the tablet is turned off, it just shows the icon changing without the text.
What does seem to work is scummvm app, these games they run just fine under aosp 6.0 p4wifi , I tried a few of mine like day of the tentacle, sam and max hit the road, and other titles etc.. so if you own these Lucas Arts games they will run on this tablet with this build they seem to run fine as far as I can tell , I got the scummvm build version from the play store but you can download it from here too.
http://www.scummvm.org/
you can use the above web link to also download new builds of scummvm if you need to they seem to work fine, on the new version. so far it has not crash the scummvm app at all, so as far as I can tell it runs under android 6.0 on this tablet, not sure how long the batteries work on the tablet running these games, I have not really test it that much so I don't no how long you can play them for on it.
Subway surfers fails to run , not related to AOSP version but the update itself cause
The last version that worked on my hardware is 1.47.1 on 11 26 2015, the Christmas version displays an message saying it does not support my Samsung galaxy tablet 10.1 it has an failure to initialize! Your hardware does not support this application, sorry!. So I can't use the Christmas update.
its not related to the AOSP build but the app itself fails to run on Samsung galaxy tablet 10.1 , the last version 1.47.1 on 11 26 2015 still runs, you don't get that message above until you update the version to the Christmas one, so its been brokened since the latest release, I just check that since I downgrade the app, and now it plays again.
Older Kindle App Works as Well!
Thanks for the wonderful observation that sometimes an older version of an app will work, whereas the more recent versions do not. I went to apkmirror.com and downloaded the Amazon Kindle app from Feb, 2015. Installed it as a "foreign source", and to my surprise and amazement, it appears to open and READ A BOOK! There are several updates between Feb, 2015 and today. I could, perhaps, try them one-after-another and find the most recent app that works. But, why bother? All I have to do now is be alert and NEVER "update" the Kindle app. (That's a good question. Since I did not install the Kindle app through Android Play, maybe it will not know the app is even installed, and will never offer me an "update".)
Of course, xdadevelopers has cost Google a sale, since I now have less incentive to purchase a Nexus tablet to replace my Tab 10.1
Thanks!
Kindle crashing lollipop

Rooting The kobo Vox[#2]

This is the original post, with pasted text
http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/xda-assist/rooting-kobo-vox-t3501452
16th November 2016, 10:34 PM
{
I have a Kobo Vox Tablet, Its running Android 2.3.4 with a 800 MHz processor and 512MB of RAM.
I've been looking into various forums and sources to root and/or create a custom rom for the device.
I did try gingerbreak and one click root and both failed after multiple attempts.
Due to Android 2.3.4 the limitation of apps is ginormous
Basically, all I want to do with the device is have it setup on my desk, to play a few apps such as YouTube, Spotify, Twitch, Vlc ( potentially a controller for my pc)
YouTube is working. an old glitchy version, but it works, Could use a tweak to increase the buffer size though, Some stuttering on playback
Spotify is installed and works fine, however it is an old version which locks me out of the only feature I wish to use. I wish to play the songs on my computer, and use the remote on the tablet to view, change volume and skip songs.
Twitch. Google play store would not Install this. period. I had to get an apk of Twitch, I think it's version 1.4. It is not bringing up any live streams. So it doesn't really work. This is perhaps the main app I want to get working. If YouTube is working, Pretty sure Twitch can as well.
The tablet Runs fine itself. As soon as I turn off background data and keep closing Google Framework apps it runs significantly better.
Someone recommended that I would find a solution on xda forums, so here I am.

As of now, over a month later, I'm trying again, because I have a big road trip in a few days.
I had it all set up and was working on getting a charger when the device suddenly would not boot and now it factory reset itself and I'm having to set it all up again.
supposedly it will charge with 2A chargers, you just need to reboot it so the battery % "refreshes"
so I had it supposedly charging then the device farted and now I'm ready to throw it.
contacted kobo support, huge waste of time.
Rooting would be nice, but getting those apps to work is all I want.

Time to let go?

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.
seriously? ive had absolutely no issues with mine! I use it as a puzzle/game/ebook/reddit browser/ video player... nothing intensive and its a t-580 running 6.0.1 (Ultra Lean MM V6). Everything works (everything ive ever tried including magisk and xposed)...

That's the much newer Galaxy Tab 10.1 A - different tablet This thread is about the 6-year old original iPad challenger that it has become a point of pride to keep going.

2021 - Are there any stable ROMs for the Tab S3?

If I read the right page, LineageOS never officially supported the Tab S3 and there don't seem to be any other official ROMs judging by this thread. Are there any stable and/or well maintained Android 10 or 11 ROMs for the SM-T820 worth abandoning the dated but stable stock ROM?
I tried a few - no real use.
back to stock.
after setting everything up from scratch, meaning no userdata or such, it felt a LOT faster than before.
What helped me a lot was removing all google play services (with link2sd, I just uninstalled everything with root) and switching to vanced youtube (so I still get to watch yt).
For google drive and such I can use the browser versions and now without a trace of google the tablet is a lot faster. I'm sure that properly set up microg wouldn't affect performance at all but I don't have the time to reset again. If I manage to do it some day I'll post a tutorial, and in the mean time someone else can try this method.

Giving my Google passwords to a 3rd party app doesn't feel good to me. I switched instead to watching YouTube on Firefox some time ago, with the ad blocker plugins. The only downside is that on mobile, after a video ends and the next loads, the video goes out of full screen.
As to removing bloatware, can the device be rooted without causing issues with Samsung's stock interface?
I noticed there's an official Pie release. Unfortunately, I don't think I qualify for normal OTA upgrade as I have a Wifi only tablet and no carrier. Also, this is a demo tablet not intended for sale, so additional lockouts might apply there.
Does anyone know if the official Pie upgrade should work with the demo model, and have any experience with the Android 9 firmware from Samsung?
At the moment I'm away from my PC so I can't flash isn't Odin. I'm kinda itching to get the upgrade on my tablet and wondering if there's a way to reliably flash without even a PC to root my tablet.

Eventually, I figured out how to flash a Wifi-only SM-T820 LDU (live demo model) from Android 7.0 to the last Android 9 firmware Samsung released for the model. A good upgrade and very stable.
