Hi everyone,
First, read the readme.txt in the zip file.
You flash it at your own risk. Backup everything. Learn how to use Heimdall. If it eats your dog it's not my problem . Many things are broken - post about it in the thread if nobody posted before. If you have any idea how to fix things, post too or PM me.
Requirements: GSM (Euro, US ATT/TMO tabs), with JQ1 (Gingerbread) unprotected bootloaders that can run Euro JQ1 ROM and gt-p1000_mr.pit partitioning.
Modem versions:
ATT: use I9000UGJK3 modem (this is what I am using)
TMO: try JK5
Euro: reports say that JK5, JPZ modems work
HK: user reports JK5 modem works.
CDMA: This ROM does not support CDMA Tabs.
LTN: experimental kernel included.
The archive with the build with Heimdall is here http://gtab7.nexus-lab.com/cm7sgt/tcm7beta-2012-08-05.zip
Please use heimdall to install. This zip file is not for flashing with CWM. Unzip and read the readme.txt in the zip file. Flash using the Heimdall command line (below).
The update zip for CWM is here http://gtab7.nexus-lab.com/cm7sgt/cm-7-20120805-UNOFFICIAL-galaxytab.zip, (GSM only, no LTN), please be sure to flash it from recovery that supports EXT4 or flash it once so it updates kernel/recovery, reboot to new recovery and flash it again. If you encounter any problems, use the Heimdall version.
P1000L/N
There is experimental P1000L kernel and bootloaders included in LTN directory in Heimdall package. It should work on P1000L and maybe P1000N.
Big thanks to Humberos for patches and testing. Adventureous souls with Latin Tabs please try it and report how it worked for you. You should have Gingerbread bootloaders and partitioning done first, so it should be easy if you are already running Gingerbread on your P1000L/N.
Installation using Heimdall
normal update from previous CM7 version, or a flash from another Gingerbread ROM:
Code:
heimdall flash --kernel zImage --factoryfs factoryfs.ext4
full flash and repartition:
Code:
heimdall flash --repartition --pit gt-p1000_mr.pit --primary-boot boot.bin --secondary-boot sbl.bin --kernel zImage --factoryfs factoryfs.ext4 --cache cache.ext4 --dbdata dbdata.ext4
Please be careful and double check your Heimdall command line when you flash bootladers, you may brick your Tab pretty bad.
If you get stuck on first reboot after install, or your settings aren't saved it means your data partitions need to be reformatted to ext4. This should be handled by setup_fs in init.rc.
If it didn't happen, start adb and run
make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
make_ext4fs /dev/block/stl10
make_ext4fs /dev/block/stl11
Or try full wipe in recovery.
make_ext4fs is slightly wonky so you could use "/system/bin/mke2fs -t ext4 -m 0" instead (recovery is also using make_ext4fs internally to wipe partitions)
Samsung apps, Swype, Gapps etc
This is an unofficial port of CyanogenMod. I am striving to give us the pure CyanogenMod experience on Galaxy Tab.
So, there are no Samsung apps and don't ask for them.
There is no TouchWiz and don't ask for it.
It comes with ADW Launcher and if you want anything else, there is plenty of launchers in the Market.
If you want Google Apps, get it from the usual place http://goo-inside.me/gapps/ and install from recvery after flashing update.zip. The Heimdall version has Gapps integrated right now.
There is one stupid annoyance on Google sign-in welcome screen. It asks to slide open the keyboard (which we don't have and for now I can't find this setting). So skip the whole set up and sign in to Google account from Settings->Accounts&Sync.
Swype: there is no Swype. Since Swype has a policy of allowing Swype on modded ROMs as long as the original ROM had Swype integrated, if somebody cares to make flashable zip with Swype I can link it from OP.
Market issues.
Market 3.x has much stricter rules about DPI and device checks. So very often it shows apps as not compatible with CM7 on GalaxyTab.
Just go to Settings->Applications and uninstall updated Market it will go back to 2.x for a while.
Or try tool like OldMarket http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1240344
You can also change build.prop yourself, you will need to change two lines:
ro.build.tags=test-keys to ro.build.tags=release-keys
and
ro.sf.lcd_density=200 ro.sf.lcd_density=240
reboot, delete Market data from Settings->Applications
Big thanks to junkshow for investigating it.

How to report bugs
If you think you have found a bug.
- verify you can repeat it, make sure it is not caused by the fact you did not wipe the device by rebooting to recovery and using wipe when you first installed CM7. Particularly when coming from other ROMs that use ext4. When coming from RFS your partitions should have been reformatted on first boot but wiping after install will not hurt.
Please read existing open and already closed issues at http://github.com/cm7sgt/android_device_samsung_galaxytab/issues
If your bug is new.
Please see if it is upstream (general CM7 not related to Tab) bug, see in CM7 issues tracker http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/list
If it is already there, please stop or add a comment there.
If the bug is about generic issue, please try to verify it it also happens on other CM7 devices. If so, you should post it in CyanogenMod issues.
If the bug is Galaxy Tab specific, like, some hardware functionality is missing, some driver not working. Dialogs messed up because of resolution etc, this means it belongs to Galaxy Tab device issue tracer and I can fix it.
In this case please open new issue here http://github.com/cm7sgt/android_device_samsung_galaxytab/issues
Please use pastie.org or something like that for posting logs.
SDCARD controversy
By default, the real micro SD is /mnt/sdcard, the internal mmc is /mnt/sdcard/external_sd, like in Galaxy S CyanogenMod builds.
If you don't like it, you can swap the devices, go to Settings -> CyanogenMod settings -> Application and check Use internal storage [ ] checkbox.
Reboot, now internal will be /mnt/sdcard, external will be /mnt/sdcard/external_sd like in Samsung's Android.
In recovery, real sdcard in /sdcard, internal sdcard (embedded MMC) is /emmc.
If you want to flash zip from /emmc just go in recovery "install zip from sdcard" -> "choose zip from internal sdcard" -> choose whatever you want to flash.

How to build CYanogenMod 7 for Galaxy Tab GT-P1000
First, please read this article http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Compile_CyanogenMod_for_CaptivateMTD
You will need the same prerequisites.
Then
Get repo as described there. I put mine in /usr/local/bin
Sync Android tree. You need to use manifest from cm7sgt github.
(If you have more/less than 4 cores modify your -j4 accordingly)
Create a directory for your Android, you will need oer 10GB of free space. It helps a lot to put it on SSD.
repo init -u git://github.com/cm7sgt/android.git -b gingerbread
since kernel.org gits are still down, until they are back up you need to sync repo tool from github, so use this command line, thanks to Disgustipated for pointing it out.
curl https://raw.github.com/android/tools_repo/master/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
repo init -u git://github.com/cm7sgt/android.git -b gingerbread --repo-url=git://github.com/android/tools_repo.git
repo sync -j4
Grab Rom Manager as described.
You can't (no script) and don't need to copy proprietary files, everything is already included in vendor git.
Setup your android build environment and choose device to build:
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cyanogen_galaxytab-eng
make -j4
There, it should build with no issues. Sometimes it will complain about API changes, run make update-api then.
From here you have two options.
1. Build Heimdall images. You will need kernel with loop support, losetup, ext4 tools (mkfs.ext4).
cd device/samsung/galaxytab/tools
./buildimage
it will grab stuff from out and create ext4 images. Flash with Heimdall.
2. Build update.zip
make -j4 bacon
How to build kernel
First, you will need the arm toolchain from CodeSourcery. You need arm-2009q3-68-arm-none-eabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2
From http://www.codesourcery.com/sgpp/li...q3-68-arm-none-eabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2
Unpack it in /opt/toolchains. as root
mkdir -p /opt/toolchains
cd /opt/toolchains
tar -xjvf arm-2009q3-68-arm-none-eabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2
Then in your CM7 tree
BEFORE YOU BUILD CM7 TREE
cd device/samsung/galaxytab
./kernel.sh defconfig
./kernel.sh modules
This will configure the kernel and build and copy modules to prebuilt directories. The kernel build directory is out/target/product/galaxytab/kernel_build
Build your android tree normally so initramfs is created.
Then again
cd device/samsung/galaxytab
./kernel.sh kernel
This will build the kernel using the initramfs in recovery/root and update prebuilt kernel image.
(for Latin kernel use kernel_ltn.sh script and use kernel_ltn file it produces)
Now you need to run make on your android tree again so boot.img is updated.
And proceed to buildimage or make bacon as usual.

P1000L tabs too?
I can test for you.

AFAIK P1000L hardware is different so it will need different kernel
How do we check which bootloader we have?

If you installed Euro JJ4 ROM you probably have JJ4 bootloader.
It will probably also work with stock ATT and TMO bootloader but I cannot guarantee that. I have JJ4. People have reported issues using Euro ROMs on ATT bootloaders, I believe the same issues will show up in my CM7.
Great news. I have polish rom maybe i help. galaxy tab jm6
That is amazing work!
Well done.
Which issue r u tlaking abt? I have recent att tab went straight to jme no issue. Lemme know if i could hrlp testing. Ubuntu & heimdall ready. I actually pulled your old cm6 and cp kernel-tab and what not to cm7 but failed at lunch cyanogen...

I'm no expert but this seems obvious (for me). If you have a linux box, do a "strings boot.bin" on a protected bl (extract from JMF downloaded from samfirmware for instance), you will see these lines
PBL: Error.. sbl verification failed..
PBL: booting stop!
My at&t backup boot.bin does not have the above 2 lines.
Just my guess.

I can't wait for this... My Tab seems to just be less awesome without the love CM gives to Android.
installed but touch doesnt works.
what is the next step?

this is because of the different hardware!
if ur not a developer, leave it till it is stable because u are missing some necessary features for everyday use!
landroid thanks for your response.
btw i wanna learn how to fix that. can you give me directions ?
first of all I'll try to get stock rom compiled.
too bad again not for CDMA tab user

First off all u need to find the kernel source for ur tab (i think P1000L, right?) And then apply the patches technomancer made to the kernel but this is very hard to do! The best thing would be to contact technomancer! And if i find some spare time tommorrow ill try to compile a P1000L kernel for u but i cant guarantee that if i manage to do that everything works! But i knoe how to compile kernels from source so it should not be a problem!

This used to be the thread of my CM build for SD... using it again so that old users can easily find it since its heavily associated with the CyanogenMod Series!
If you have used any of my previous ROM's (HyperROM for WinMo back in the day AND HyperDroid CM6.1 for Android SD), you'll know that I build these to be Clean, Fast, Minimal and as Stable as Realistically Possible. (YMMV, of course)
I originally built this for my personal use and offer no guarantees except that I personally use this ROM and it's passed my standards for daily use as well as my 4 year old son's since he plays the games I download on the device.
In the spirit of the open source community, allow me to share and give back to something I enjoy participating in--- Tweaking my Gadgets to Death... yes, to death...
I am not a developer nor do I aim to be called as such. I believe this should be reserved for the real people who do the work behind the scenes and in the trenches of kernel hacking and coding.
I am an extreme gadget enthusiast or simply a Gadget Geek... The work I do is to build from source then put together bits and pieces of what works and what looks good to create a gadget experience that is elegant, polished, minimalist and functional (E-P-M-F).
From my HyperROM WinMO ROM roots to today, I've always liked using and sharing a ROM that meets my E-P-M-F aspirations for a gadget. Today I bring you my personal twist on an Android ROM based on CyanogenMod7.
Again, THIS is NOT a PORT... its Completely Built FROM SOURCE, Then Fully Optimized and Tweaked for the HD2!
From v3.0.0 onwards, this version is being maintained by the HyperDroid Dev Crew:
seadersn
clyder
doctorcete
pongster
Yz
fhasovic
Huge props to:
ihlades: for allowing me to build off Redux and helping me figure stuff out (saved me a lot of time)
cyanogen: for the various useful features and functions... Android is better because of you
AdamG: for the tweaks on AOSP and contributions to Android...
charansingh: for his work on the vendor related stuff for the HD2...
tytung: for his work on the kernel, vold, gps and openly exchanging code with me to make both our builds that much better.
Tricalibur and Veyka: for their generosity in sharing Unlimited Bandwidth FTP for these ROM's
doctorcete: for helping me test the ROMs over and above the call of duty. breaking what I don't break myself For adding the finishing touches on certain Framework Tweaks as well, I am grateful!
D4rk50ul: for helping rework the posts on the first page and being a helpful troubleshooter that has allowed me to fix a lot of small details. The go to guy re: GPS stuff for HyperDroid... trust me!
pinDemon: for creating an awesome video guide for HyperDroid! (more to come)
karendar, slashas69, seadersn, fhasovic, Nikola G., discohk, Yz.hd: for their time, contributions and methods of testing out the [email protected]#$% out of these ROM's and helping make it a True Community Effort (thread support, chatzy support, etc.)

In essence, if you like what you see feel free to download it directly by clicking the appropriate link below!
Upgrading is possible and theoretically safe... unless stated other wise. However, due to the complexity of different settings, applications installed, and Android system itself this upgrading would be unsupported officially and in case a bug arises we cannot provide official support other than trying full wipe.
You have been Warned.
Therefore a full wipe is always advisable to minimize errors and get proper support (everything is tested on all defaults).

==========================
MAGLDR
==========================
This guide is assuming you have a completely stock HTC HD2 running Windows Mobile 6.5.
You should ALWAYS turn OFF Anti-Virus and Sleep/Hibernation/Screensavers while Flashing
1. Install HSPL 2.08 onto your device by following the directions in that thread or by watching the above video.
2. Install the newest version of MAGLDR. Unzip the file into a folder on your desktop for easy access. With the phone off Power up your device by holding the volume down button and red power button at the same time. You should see a rainbow colored screen as shown in the video above. RIGHT Click the ROMUpdateUtility.exe file and "Run as Administrator". Follow the on screen instructions. When the process is finished your phone should now boot into MAGLDR with a Kernel failed to load error.
3. Download the appropriate ClockWorkMod 150MB file from HERE. Extract this file into a folder on your desktop in preparation. On the Phone select the option 5. USB Flasher using the Volume Down hardkey and press the Green Send button to confirm. Connect the phone to your PC with USB cable and wait until it says USB connected. Go to your ClockWorkMod folder and RIGHT CLICK on the DAF.exe file and "Run as Administrator". Follow the on screen instructions. **If you want the newest version of CWM before flashing the above file, CLICK HERE and follow the instructions.
4. You now have all the tools to install HyperDroid on your device. Insert your SD card into a card reader and connect to your PC. Copy the MAGLDR version zip of the ROM to the root of the card. DO NOT USE MAGLDR USB MASS STORAGE TO TRANSFER ROM FILES IT CAN CORRUPT THEM. Place the SD card back into your phone and press and HOLD the power button until the MAGLDR menu appears again. Select option 9. AD Recovery. Select the option "install zip from sdcard" with the volume up/down keys and confirm with green send button. Choose the ROM file and press the Green button. Scroll down to YES and press the Green button. Wait. You have successfully installed the awesomeness that is HyperDroid onto your Device.
5. For future use when upgrading versions. ClockWorkMod's NANDROID BACKUP IS YOUR FRIEND PLEASE USE IT BEFORE FLASHING ANYTHING NEW TO YOUR DEVICE. The "wipe data/factory reset" option in ClockWorkMod will completely reset or (Full Wipe) your device. You still need to go to the "advanced" option and "Wipe Dalvik Cache" as well. If you are trying to keep your data just choose the two options "wipe cache partition" from the main menu and "wipe dalvik cache" option from the advanced menu, then install the new version with "install zip from sd card".

F.A.Q.
What is Hyperdroid by Pongster?
It's an Android NAND rom for HD2 that puts style, speed and stability into one. It can be considered a minimalistic ROM.
When will the next version be released?
It'll be done when it's done. Until then...
Is Hyperdroid a Sense ROM?
No, therefore all the apps and widgets that require sense will not work ie. Friendstream
What CWM recovery size should i use? EU HD2 USERS THIS ONE IS IMPORTANT!
150 mb is the correct one and the most system space you will need for this or the CM7 HyperDroid!
Do NOT use the 250 mb partition or higher, the ROM may malfunction!!! You have been warned!!!
For extra space you can follow this guide to create a custom partition size and get the most out of your NAND space!
dertester123's Tutorial can be found here!
I'm getting Robotic Voice, I thought this was Fixed!
Unfortunately this has not been completely fixed as of yet, and we as you are eagerly awaiting its final demise. For now go to Settings/Sounds then uncheck audible touch tones. Place a phone call and when finished reboot.
What is the PIN CODE to use in the video pinDemon made so I can haz Android working?
Why are the icons so small?
Because the density of the screen is set to 167. If u don't like it use either the terminal or any root enabled file explorer like THIS and edit the /system/build.prop file. Find and change the number in the line "ro.sf.lcd_density=167" to 240 for stock android DPI. You can also do this before flashing the ROM by using a tool such as WINRAR to edit the file in the ROM without unzipping it.
GPS is slow what can I do to fix it?
Open the /system/etc/gps.conf file with a root text editor and change the top four servers. Change the "us" to your country code such as "cn". There are other fixes available on XDA but unfortunately GPS is never going to be native like until DEVS build the proper system files needed.
Why do some applications only extend up to a smaller part of the screen?
Probably because you did not UNcheck compatibility mode in spare parts app as advised. Do it and everything will appear normally. If you are still having issues it is the APP itself and only changing the system density will solve your issue.
ZOMG Angry Birds and/or (insert game/app here) Force closes on me what do I do?
Open your settings menu and go to the Applications sub menu. Select the misbehaving application and press the "Move to Phone" button. All Apps we've tested work from the SD Card (Fat32, Old School Move Apps to SD)
Will there be a DFT flashable version or sd version?
No. Recovery Mods such as ClockWorkMod are the future due to functionality and ease of use. They feature the Nandroid backup feature and it is strongly advised to do Nandroid backups regularly. If you prefer Titanium backup it's your choice, but don't argue about it. If you choose to use Titanium or MyBackup and experience bugs, we probably won't be able to help you because the restore itself could have caused the issue.
I am afraid of flashing CWM recovery, help me?
Installing CWM recovery is as easy as flashing HSPL or MGLDR. You will still have HSPL and MGLDR installed so you can uninstall CWM at any time. CWM allows you to do nandroid backups and therefore to restore any NAND rom in a minimum amount of time.
What is free memory?
The free memory shown in the app manager is the memory left on NAND for your /data partition. (it does not include sd card or sd-ext): Free memory = Total NAND memory (512 for RU 1024 for TMOUS) - CWM recovery (system files) - Apps installed on NAND.
Why do i have only less than 10mb of free memory left?
Because you probably used the wrong CWM recovery size. Use the 150MB ClockWorkMod partition.
If you are using the proper 150mb CMW recovery image you should have about 250 mb free with EU HD2.
Why do i freeze on the ANDROID white logo after the install?
You missed a step, installed something wrong, or haven't properly prepared your SD card. Please follow the installation instructions and try again. FULL WIPE the device if all else fails.
My SD card is slow, the camera crashes, or my gallery takes forever to load up.
I highly recommend you backup then reformat your SD card with the largest block size you can. This will greatly enhance data throughput. A FAT32 main partition with 32kb Clusters is the recommended size, although on smaller cards you may only be able to do 16kb. Also try the app called QUICKPIC in the market, it loads much quicker than stock Android Gallery.
How can i install the zip on sd-card?
Either by putting your sd-card in a card reader and downloading via your computer, or by clicking the link directly with your phone. You can place the file wherever you want on the sd card FAT main partition.
Can Hyperdroid install apps on sd-ext or use a2sd+?
If you have a primary ext3 or ext 4 partition (1024 mb is enough) AFTER the FAT 32 partition, Hyperdroid will automatically install your apps there. More specifically: app, app-private and dalvik-cache are moved to the sdcard.
What does App2sd mean?
The HyperDroid rom has Apps2sdExt support. The install detects an ext partition (if available) and installs apk's
on sd-ext. It means that applications are installed into an ext partition on the SDcard.
However, lib data of installed applications are still in phone memory.
If you use Titanium and Root Explorer, you will see that the sd-ext folder are full of your installed application.
This is NOT data2sd (which can quickly corrupt your data if your not careful) so "Internal Storage" is NOT equal to your ext partition storage.
What is sd-ext?
sd-ext is the mount point for the 2nd primary ext2/3/4 partition on the sdcard.
Do i need an sd ext partition?
YOU NEED TO PARTITION YOUR SD CARD IN ORDER TO GET APPS2SD WORKING!!
If you want more space on your NAND yes, it is very useful but it is still optional. There is no windows app to format in ext3/ext4, so download Gparted Live CD from here or use a linux virtual machine. There is a guide on how to do this here on XDA, CLICK ME!
But that looks complicated! How do I make a ext partition on my SD card using ClockWorkMod?
Boot into MAGLDR (Power On and HOLD the Power Button till MAGLDR options are shown)
Boot into option 9. AD Recovery to enter CWM Recovery Mode
Once in CWM choose advanced, then choose Partition SD card, then choose the size of the partition (Maximum of 1024M recommended)
The choose 0 for the swap and partition away.
Can Hyperdroid be installed after WP7?
Yes but you must repartition and format your sdcard into either one primary FAT 32 partition, or a primary FAT 32 followed by a primary EXT3 or EXT4 partition.
Can i install Hyperdroid after another Android NAND rom?
Yes but check you have the correct CMW recovery size (for HyperDroid 150 mb), do a full wipe (sd-card fat32; and use CMW to clear data, cache and dalvik cache)
What about battery life?
Battery drain is very low (2-5 ma for me in standby). If you want to have optimal battery standby options install Superpower from the market.
Does Bluetooth buttons and stock headset buttons work?
Yes they do, if they don't it's the app your using which is in cause.
Can you change the ____ I like how it looks better.
No I can't but YOU can. This is an OPEN SOURCE project. You are welcome to change anything about it.

[DL Desire v4.31.44.12][Sense RE-Engineering] Highlights
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. Sense Re-Engineering
Recompiled all the apps and framework for lowest RAM consuming and highest performance
2. Merged DesireZ and DesireHD
mixed the advantage features from both DesireZ and DesireHD into one build.
3. RAM fs
after testing for a week, come into one best way to utilize the RAMfs, by default, one 16M RAMfs will be created for app and market cache.
once set to ram_data=1, additional 1 RAMfs will be created for most accessed dalvik cache.
4. totally re-write the SuperInit
fixed a lot of bugs inside and optimize it again, once set ram_data=1, the boot time should be within 1min, in next version, the boot time will be reduced again.
5. added a lot of usable functions into SuperInit
- extend the backup/restore to be able to backup &restore to different build.s
- added more repair_mode, to be able to repair the nand system and reset the system.
6. use own kernel
freak kernel v1.2 to perfect fit our builds. Source: http://www.linux4freak.com/gitweb
hence, 2 parameters were added to best control the kernel
vdd_mode= xxx //for under/over volting cpu, [-150,-125,-100,-75,-50,-25,+25,+50]
sched_mode= xxx // "cfq" or "bfq"
And of course, thanks for people who ever helped me, encouraged me, donated to me!!!

New features for superinit v4.4
Buildin with IMG/EXT4/RAM support
--- by default will create a 16M RAMfs and use it as app_cache and cache.
--- once set the ram_data=1, will move the dalvik-cache of framwork into RAM
--- to roll back to normal status, use the ram_data=11
-- Optimize the nand_data, which will also be able to move the dalvik-cache of framwork into Nand.
-- add new backup_img=2 to back apps from data, which is used for changing the build, the backup_img=1 will back up the whole data, once restore to a new base, will incur the UID inconsistent issue. should use restore_img=2 to restore.
-- add more function for repair_mode
-- repair_mode=1 will rescue the data partition.
-- repair_mode=2 can use the MAGLDR load system to repair the Nand system and mount the Nand system to /mnt/rescue
-- repair_mode=3 will reset the system, all the modified app, framework, lib, fonts that caused the issue will be removed, system will be reset to the origin without losing data and settings.
-- Auto detect the phone modal(EU or TMOUS)
--- for EU modal, will auto enable the data.img if the 2nd partition can not be found.
--- for TMOUS, if doesn't have 2nd partition and set the data_img=1, will auto bypass all the relative code to reduce the boot time.
-- Auto detect the boot mode (SD/MAGLDR/NAND)
--- auto select the best configuration for each boot mode
-- Auto partitioning the SDCard if set the format_ext4=9
-- Fixed a lot of bugs in previous version.
-- to best control kernel, added
vdd_mode= xxx //for under/over volting cpu, [-150,-125,-100,-75,-50,-25,+25,+50]

How to install
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
For Nand:
just extract the Desire_DL and Update_DL(for upgrade) folder from the package to the root of your SDCard, flash.
change the config.txt.nand to config.txt and modify the config in it.
For SD/MAGLDR:
just extract the Desire_DL and Update_DL(for upgrade) folder from the package to the root of your SDCard, answer yes when ask for overwrite.
change the config.txt.sd to config.txt and modify the config in it. (Nand)
or change the config.txt.magldr to config.txt and modify the config in it. (Magldr)
If you encounter mobile data issue, please check here
Notes :
The first boot will take a very long time, especially for SD/MAGLDR due to system will convert the system.img to system.ext2, need 10-20 mins depends on the speed of your SDCard.
After the install, please reboot your system at lease twice to let the system settle down.
How to upgrade or change kernel or customize the system
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. more kernel can be found here,--a. For Nand, just extract the Update_DL folder to the root of your sdcard, boot twice.
--b. For SD, extract the Update_DL folder to the root of your sdcard, and copy the zImage file from /Update_DL/update/kernel_files to Desire_DL, boot.
--c. You can also use the same kernel package, but replace the kernel file with your own under /Update_DL/update/kernel_files. (for SD/Magldr version, the zImage file should be put under Desire_DL)
2. for system upgrade or bugfix, extract the Update_DL folder from a update package to the root of your sdcard, reboot.
3. if you intend to replace any file from the system, use rootexplorer to delete the target file first, then put the file to /Update_DL/root/system..., e.g, if you want to change the framework.res, just delete the origin file from /system/framework, then, put your own file under /Update_DL/root/system/framework, boot.

Changelog+features
Code:
[B][SIZE=3]v1.4.45.14 ARA[/SIZE][/B]
-- Battery percentage and more.
-- dynamic RAM (big thanks freak and Jim)
-- more optimization.
[SIZE=3][B]Features:[B][SIZE=3]v1.4.45.14 ARA[/SIZE][/B][/B]
[/SIZE]use a new RAM optimization method which is based on Jim's idea,
and freak successfully made it work.
This method uses another file system on top of squashFS to gain dynamic ram cache to improve the performance,
which is totally different with the previous ram_data mode 1,
that uses a static RAM allocation.
[B][SIZE=3]8/3/2011 Dl Desire reengineering (v4.31/4.32)[/SIZE][/B]
- bugfixes initrd
- bugfixes init, removed some debug info
- modified vdd_mode: now, if the value for undervolting is "more" than -50, only frequency below 576000 are reduced by this value, others only -50.
- new kernel v1.3 (only change is aufs support inside kernel)
- mobile/wifi data.

cautation :
1. this dynamic RAM build can only work on freak kernel v1.3d or later.
2. can not set ram_data=1 which will worsen the overall performance.
3. normally, the build can work out of the box without any config.
Thanks and ragards

no, no, it's just for us to test the new page, after finish, I will copy this to my thread.
Can I post my ideas here in this thread?
few notes for the first post.
what it's confusing it's the fact that you keep fixes and notes for older version..
well, for me, those are completely useless
new releases are there for solving bugs and problems of the old version
got a problem with 3.x?? update to 4.x. job done.
also some people could install old fixes them on the newer version, causing only problems
same story for the videos: they were great to show the build.
but as 4.x introduces a lots of improvements, the videos may not reflect the reality
WIP for second post:
now I need to do the links
let me know if you want something else.

Upgrade from DL 3.5 to 4.1?
Hi
Thanks for this amazing site and all the support and in particular this version of android
Maybe a stupid question but is it possible to upgrade from 3.5 to 4.1 or do i have to backup and start again for 4.1?
Cheers and TIA!

WOW!!!
once again with gpc kernel!!!
I love it...that way I didn't updated from 3.4 till now.....
according to me it's the best kernel for the phone...also if sometime 3g and wifi data doesn't start to connect.....however I can't wait for testing it!
Greetings to all!
At attempt to change framework has caught cyclic reboot for ever.
Did all as it is recommended: has removed through rootexplorer framework.apk and has tried to insert new through Update_DL.
Has not worked. For me.

hmm, the 1.85 framework is not compatible with old version, you can use this http://uot.dakra.lt/ to do it from the original framework.res.
This is a complementary guide to [Guide] How to compile and install CM10 for Samsung i9000
Want to add support for another filesystem to the CM10 kernel?
Add a module?
Maybe slim things a bit by removing some stuff?
All fine, but where to start?
Since CM9, the kernel source code should be integrated with CM's source code.
So, if you are building CM10, you should already have a kernel folder in the source code.
So, where's the config file used to build the i9000 kernel?
Well, it's here: ~/android/system/kernel/samsung/aries/arch/arm/configs/cyanogenmod_galaxysmtd_defconfig
You can edit the file directly in a text editor (if you know what you're doing) and it looks something like this:
Code:
CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL=y
CONFIG_KERNEL_LZMA=y
# CONFIG_SWAP is not set
CONFIG_SYSVIPC=y
CONFIG_IKCONFIG=y
CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC=y
CONFIG_CGROUPS=y
CONFIG_CGROUP_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_CGROUP_FREEZER=y
CONFIG_CGROUP_CPUACCT=y
CONFIG_RESOURCE_COUNTERS=y
CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED=y
CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED=y
CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="source/usr/galaxysmtd_initramfs.list"
...
You can just edit the text file, but sometimes it's not that easy to find/do what you want because the labels aren't very user-friendly.
It's easy to make several types of mistakes.
... but there is a better way to do it, using the menuconfig tool.
To use menuconfig, just do:
Code:
cd ~/android/system/kernel/samsung/aries
make menuconfig
You should now have a text GUI to access all the options that is much easier and safer to use:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now you need to load the i9000 configuration file.
Select "Load an Alternate Configuration File" at the bottom of the menu
Point to the i9000 default kernel config file: arch/arm/configs/cyanogenmod_galaxysmtd_defconfig
After you hit OK, you'll open the i9000 config file. Make the changes you want and exit. You'll be asked if you want to save the changes.
NOTE: I've had some issues with make menuconfig producing "strange" files.
Do:
Code:
grep CONFIG_USB_G_ANDROID kernel/samsung/aries/arch/arm/configs/cyanogenmod_galaxysmtd_defconfig
and confirm the result is:
Code:
CONFIG_USB_G_ANDROID=y
If it's not, menuconfig "missbehaved".
(There's a backup of the original config in kernel/samsung/aries/arch/arm/configs/cyanogenmod_galaxysmtd_defconfig.old)
Final step: Tidy things up:
Code:
cd ~/android/system/kernel/samsung/aries
make mrproper
That's it.
Build away.
(Don't forget to do a "make installclean" and cleaning things up before building)
For more information on CM's kernel building, see this: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Integrated_kernel_building
another great summary! thank you!
USB
EDIT: This comment is now obsolete.

NOTE: While everything builds nicely and is functional, somehow the USB support seems to be gone in the builds produced. Charging still works but ADB and Storage don't.
There's something missing.

Did you enable/disable things in the config file? It is not as easy to change things by just changing the config file, often the underlying source code also needs to be changed if you want to enable certain features...
Did you somehow add fast charge support?

Just made simple tests enabling simple features, like enabling btrfs filesystem support.
At first I was enabling stuff like swap and zRam, but then thought about what you are saying and went for simple tests.
Just enabling btrfs filesystem support, triggers the behaviour.
I think any change may do it.
Maybe just saving the config file in menuconfig does it.

I often change stuff in defconfig, but I always do it for code I added to the source. Never had a problem with USB after that. So in principle, it should work...

Make menuconfig + make mrproper are making a mess.
Code:
diff -d <(sort kernel/samsung/aries/arch/arm/configs/cyanogenmod_galaxysmtd_defconfig.old) <(sort kernel/samsung/aries/arch/arm/configs/cyanogenmod_galaxysmtd_defconfig)|grep CONFIG_USB_G_ANDROID
< CONFIG_USB_G_ANDROID=y
> # CONFIG_USB_G_ANDROID is not set
WTF?
Back to hand-editing the config file, I guess...
Edit: Just tried it again, starting from the original config, and it's not happening this time... Building now.
Maybe I did something dumb before? (happens a lot)

Nice howto, thanks. Have one question. I want to build kernel for ypg1, really similar device to i9000. So what to do next when I have zImage and modules. I mean have only kernel source and toolchain without whole Android sources. I need to make installable pkg but don't know how.
I'm looking for step by step how to build kernel, build recovery etc.

I think there are a few how-to's on that in the cm wiki.
I've not looked much into it, sorry.
Guess you'll only have to sync the kernel sources + device specific trees and only build the kernel.

You could take a look at my github (github.com/kasperhettinga). I use a kernel building script (developed by stratosk) that does not require the whole source code of cm10 but will build a flashable zip using a separate ramdisk (also originating from the work of stratosk).
Verstuurd van mijn GT-I9000
Could you describe how to, after make when i have zImage and modules, pack everything to img to have CWM installable zip? I don't have this device but would like to learn it. Thanks a lot.

I adapted the teamhacksung buildscript so it automatically creates a CWM-zip:
https://github.com/kasperhettinga/buildscript
I have a zImage built from CM10 kernel sources in Cygwin and I want to inject it into the CM10 boot.img.
Anyone has any idea how I can do that?
I tried to extract the boot.img from one of the nightlies using the dsxida's android kitchen, but it seems that it does not have ramdisk and the extracted zImage file is 0 bytes.
hey man i ve been trying to compile the kernel for my galaxy s2 and downloaded all the things recomended from the cyanogenmod github

please help i am really in a mess due to this.
previously i compiled a stock kernel, in stock kernel the compillation process went very good but it didnt boot
i really want to make this aosp kernel, and this is the only guide which indicates compilling an aosp kernel
hope you could sort out my problem.

do you know how to tackle this problem?
please help i am really in a mess due to this.
previously i compiled a stock kernel, in stock kernel the compillation process went very good but it didnt boot
i really want to make this aosp kernel, and this is the only guide which indicates compilling an aosp kernel
hope you could sort out my problem.
thanks in advance

These steps should resolve it
1. open the .config file that is created after you do make cyanogenmod_i9100g_defconfig
2. check the path of the file i9100g_initramfs.list and gen_initramfs_list.sh
3. edit the .config file to make sure the actual path matches to that in the .config file.
4. make -j5
5. Enjoy the new kernel !!

2. CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="source/usr/i9100g_initramfs.list" (THIS WAS THERE BY DEFAULT)
I MADE IT CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="~/home/incarnation95/cm10kernel/t1/usr/i9100g_initramfs.list"
as the location was.
i dont think we really have to define the path of gen_initramfs_list.sh or do we? and if yes then where?
There you have the problem...remove the "source/" from the path in the .config file
This path is defined by default and just needs customization for our device...

Hello guys, this is an unofficial build of AOSP Nougat (with tag android-7.0.0_r6). Kernel is based on CM13's, with some recent commits in kernel/common in AOSP. Sources and patches are available at the end of the post.
Note: this ROM is just for having the first taste of Nougat, and thus missing a lot of key features. I may not be able to update it regularly.
Basic hardware functionality:
Almost everything works, except video hardware encoding, which causes camcorder to fail. HW decoding works though.
Everything should be working since 20160903.
I didn't find more hardware failures, but there can be more.
And remember, the proprietary firmwares and blobs are still in the age of Marshmallow, and a system won't be complete without corresponding firmwares and blobs.
Known bugs:
1. HW disk encryption is likely broken. I reverted some commits to make cryptfs_hw build, but I'm not sure if that works. Do not try it.
2. SELinux is permissive, and init allows service without a SELinux domain to start.
3. GPS may take longer to obtain a position fix. (yes it's working... sorry for the misunderstanding)
4. Only Launcher2 is included. You may install a new one as you like.
5. No LiveDisplay and gestures except DT2W (DT2W can not be turned off via Settings app for now) Color calibration is possible, see FAQ below.
6. Default input method could be broken. Be ready to "pm install your_ime.apk" in adb shell. Fixed in 20160828
7. com.qti.dpmserviceapp may produce continous FC. You can disable it via adb shell ("su -c pm disable com.qti.dpmserviceapp"). Removed in 20160828
8. Rotating screen while playing video can cause the display to "split" Fixed in 20160903
9. Camera service and media codecs all run in the same process, eliminating one of the security enhancements of Android N. May not be fixed until new HAL and blobs are available.
So the security improvements in Nougat are not making much difference in this only-a-taste ROM. If you rely on this, it would be better to wait for official releases.
FAQs:
1. Root / Gapps?
I'm using SuperSU 2.76 stable and OpenGapps 7.0 pico. They work without any issue.
If your contacts / calendars is not syncing, try the following steps:
1. Goto Settings > Apps, tap "Show system" in menu
2. Find "Google Contacts Sync", tap on it, tap "Permissions", turn on everything
3. Go back to Detail screen, clear its data
4. Go back to app list, clear "Contacts Storage"' data
5. Do the same for calendars (2-4)
6. Reboot

2. F2FS?
I did not test this myself... But kernel has support already (of cource, it's from CM) so you may have a try. Remember to backup!
EDIT: Some users reported that F2FS partitions are corrupted. If you are using F2FS, maybe you should wait.

Click to collapse
3. Menu key / App switcher?
Menu key now acts as recents, since I don't think the former is as useful as the latter. And there is no more lag while tapping home button since we don't check for double tap anymore.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4. TWRP shows error?
If that's two lines of "log", you can safely ignore it.
If there is something else, please stop and post it here.
If you are using MultiROM, you may modify update-script. Read the first ~8 pages and you will find it.
Reference: I'm using official TWRP 3.0.2 w/o MultiROM This recovery didn't get replaced by stock one...

5. File manager (to install APKs)?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
6. Disable HW keys, enable soft keys, screen color calibration?
Disable HW keys: echo 0 > /proc/touchpanel/keypad_enable (needs repeat on reboot)
Enable soft keys: echo "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 >> /system/build.prop (once)
Screen color calibration: echo "32768 31784 27852" > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/rgb (needs repeat on reboot, change the values as you need. This example is 100% R, 97% G, 85% B)
Optionally you can enable color enhancing: echo 1 > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/color_enhance

You can still use HALs from 20160906 if you want.
(And if you are posting this somewhere else, please include the HALs in your post)

CAF and original AOSP HALs: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BwkmhbR5VHpAaGdCQmxDUWgxQlU
Note on the HALs:
AOSP HALs (msm8996 display + msm8974 media) can not record screen, but they "seem" to make the system smoother. (msm8974 display HAL cannot be used because it corrupts the display when rotating screen with video playing)
CAF HALs (both based on vanilla CAF LA.BF.1.1.3_rb1.13) can record screen but "seem" not to be so efficient as AOSP ones.
The HAL included in the ROM are the AOSP variant.

Note: please read "known bugs" section before flashing! Also you can read the guide below.
When updating the ROM, just dirty-flash new build and Gapps (if you use them).
In order to prevent your recovery from being replaced by the stock one, flash SuperSU along with the ROM.

Changelog:
20160919
Fixed Fackbook crash by avoiding preloading libboringssl-compat.so (CM camera HAL is the only camera HAL that does not require this)
Updated BT configuration (please test if it has any side effect. Sometimes you need to search twice to find your Bluetooth gadgets.)
Tried to fix network location (added Google's network location provider)
20160918
Reverted to previous "stub" power HAL. May fix lagging and unusual power consumption noticed by some users.
Tried to fix NFC FW download mechanism. May fix non-working NFC for some users.
20160910
Updated to NRD90U (android-7.0.0_r6)
Switched to CM/QCOM power HAL. The original power HAL is more like a placeholder.
Now on Tap can be launched by long-pressing home button
Switchable WebView implementation, thanks to @fards here
Note:
1. If you are experiencing display issues (such as screen flicker with FLV SW decoding), try switching on "Disable HW Overlay" in Development Settings.
2. If you need multi-user feature, remove /system/priv-app/com.qualcomm.location. Otherwise the system will crash. It was accidentally added in this build.
20160906
Switched back to AOSP HALs to increase performance, but screen recording is broken again. You can choose CAF HALs listed above to fix that. Camcorder and HW encoding work with both variants, no need to worry.
Updated media profiles. Front camera knows that it is not capable of 1080p recording.
20160903
Fixed HW encoder and camcorder (they are different issues, though related) (and switched to CM13 media HAL)
Fixed display corruption while rotating screen with video playing (by switching to CM13 display HAL, don't know which lines of code fixed that)
DT2W can be turned off via Settings
Added Reboot option in power menu
20160831
Fixed crash in World Clock page when selecting countries/regions
Fixed hang in Developer Settings when the ROM is installed as secondary
Fixed crash when taking photos with HDR on
Added support for kexec
Added Stk
20160828
Fixed default input method FC
Remove com.qti.dpmservices to prevent FC
Dev: updated build system to finally automate everything
20160827
Initial build
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Notes on the sources:
1. Build system produces correct boot.img in $OUT, but the boot image in OTA zip still has no DT included. Fixed in 20160828
2. Some fixes are really "dirty" (as I'm not able to find a proper way)...
3. Some JNIs fail to build (lots of C++ symbols no found). You may try linking C++ libs dynamically (c++_static -> c++_shared) to avoid this. See 20160828 patches, packages/inputmethods/LatinIME for example.
4. Some apps require android-8 ndk, but the earliest version in the tree is android-9. A symlink will do (or you can change the Android.mk in app) but I'm not really sure this will not introduce any bug.
5. Android N split mediaserver into multiple processes to improve security, such as cameraserver, mediacodec, etc. But camera blobs and old HALs were not designed like this. They assume they run in the same process, thus a buffer created by blobs are being used everywhere, which will cause illegal memory access under Android N. I reverted lots of patches about this, forcing camera and codec services to run in the mediaserver process as before - security compromised with functionality, again.
Hope you enjoy this.
I am going to try this out, thanks @updateing for your work:good:
If I could find fixes then I would send an pull request.

Guide to flashing this properly (TWRP v3.0.2-0):
(THIS GUIDE IS MAINLY FOR THE FIRST BUILD 20160827. AS I AM RUNNING IT SMOOTHLY, I DO NOT PLAN TO UPDATE TO 20160828, AS IT HAS SOME MINOR FIXES, ALREADY COVERED IN MY GUIDE.
IF HOWEVER, YOU'RE FLASHING 20160828 OR LATER BUILD, HERE'S WHAT YOU SHOULD DO DIFFERENTLY:
-Flashing Google keyboard is not mandatory, as default input mode has been fixed
-adb steps do not need to be performed as the com.qti.dpmserviceapp has been removed
-You probably shouldn't flash the SystemUI Tuner mod zip, as the SystemUI APK from previous build may not be compatible with new build. If you flash it on 28 build and have SystemUI FCs or missing SystemUI, just reflash ROM, and don't flash the mod.
REST OF THE GUIDE REMAINS THE SAME)
(This guide is for flashing as primary ROM without MultiROM. MultiROM guide by @7u5h4r: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68413163&postcount=242)
TL;DR version (that means short version)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68552389&postcount=1172
Download ROM zip from OP and Google Keyboard flashable zip, as well as any of the zips I linked below.
Wipe your device (data, cache, dalvik/ART cache; preferably even system, just to be as "clean" as possible)
(NOTE ABOUT DIRTY FLASHING:
-If you dirty flash this ROM (eg. flashing newer build), you will need to flash GApps again along with the ROM zip as GApps are not preserved
-This ROM actually booted for me even on a dirty flash from an MM custom ROM, and as a result I didn't face a lot of the problems you'd face on clean flash (GApps crashes, continuous qti app FCs, etc)
But a lot of my apps were crashing until I reinstalled them, and in any case, it is not advised to dirty flash when coming from MM)
Flash ROM zip and keyboard zip, optionally any of the following addons (DO NOT FLASH GAPPS YET):
-SuperSU (v2.68+) for root
-Any of the mods I linked below
-Any other mods like Viper4Android etc (AT YOUR OWN RISK)
Boot into the ROM. you'll probably see a lot of crashes, ignore them, and just find a PC for the next step
(Optionally, you could try to enable Developer Options by tapping past the FC dialogs, once you have DevOps enabled, you'll see an option to mute FC notifications till next boot)
Using ADB on your PC, disable the com.qti.dpmserviceapp package by running following commands:
Code:
adb devices
You should see a device in the list of devices connected
Code:
adb shell
pm disable com.qti.dpmserviceapp
If you get error with permissions, you may need root. If your device is rooted:
Code:
su
pm disable com.qti.dpmserviceapp
(SKIP 6, 7 & 8 if you do not need Google services)
Now reboot into recovery and flash a compatible GApps package (USE 7.0 GAPPS ONLY)
Boot into ROM
Go to Settings>Apps
Find Google Play Services, and go to its Permissions. Enable essential permissions. Now Play Services won't keep crashing on you. Also find Google Contact Sync and give it permission to access Contacts.
Go to Settings>Accounts and add your Google account
Profit

Link to app
Layers themes are supported, use Substratum app (Play Store link) to apply
(ROOT NEEDED)
NOTE: Themes made only for Substratum will not work (properly) as this ROM doesn't support Substratum (that will need patches to ROM source). Only which support RRO/Layers will work without any issues.

Which sepolicy did you use? I am porting to a different device and Im currently trying to fix neverallows which is painful but I think I merged a commit to qcom/sepolicy which allows domain to start (im not very good in sepolicy). Its based off Cyanogenmod qcom/sepolicy repo. If you want to take a look its here android_device_qcom_sepolicy-1 and I had to add one thing to platform_system_sepolicy. I hope we'll be able to fix sepolicy soon.
Awesome.... Downloading already.
Awesome! Has anyone tried If gapps work?
Flashed it. But i get a FC all the time
com.qti.dpmserviceapp has stopped.
I cant do anything..?

Definition
Let me first define what I mean by Creator's Experience. This ROM is just as good as your stock ROM on KNOX 0x0. I am in no way taking credit for any of the development in this ROM, I'm just repackaging the stock Samsung ROM in Samsung's experience how they created it. But if you flashed stock ROM you may get a ton of KNOX warnings so selling the device or giving your device to someone else would make it more complicated and frustrating due to nagging popups that you have to disable by first setting up the device. I wanted to create something that you can restore your device to when you get bored of a custom ROM, or you just want to use the latest stock firmware again.
This ROM will never contain any tweaks or system addons, it is barebones stock with no KNOX and stubs so people can use it as a rescue/reference firmware.
Purpose
Being the owner of the Korean Samsung Galaxy S8+ 128GB/6GB (SM-G955N), there are only so many stock firmwares available from Updato or Sammobile. All listed firmwares contain all the CSCs located in the /system partition, and the CSC file toggles between them. This means that regardless of what CSC you flash on the device, you will activate all the applications that were disabled by the CSC (KT mobile apps should be disabled on the SKT CSC, and vice versa). So flashing a Canadian CSC will still have every single South Korean carrier bloat on your device, which sucks.
This is a strange situation with 955N users, where ALL THE BLOAT is stored in /system/priv-app, while the csc is just one small file that controls which applications are active/inactive on the device.
Process
So, what does this mean? I wanted the stock international 955F ROM on my device, really badly. But Odin refused to flash it due to a secure write/invalid magic string error. I have tried everything from modifying the PIT tables in the ROMs to flashing custom ROMs. As much as custom ROMs are great, I wanted something I could fall back to when sh*t hits the fan, as well as something that fit the stock lifestyle...since I would really have loved to keep KNOX 0x0 if the Korean firmware was not as bloated as I thought it would be.
So for those who were searching for the stock ROM that was created with stock in mind, I have repackaged the 955F stock using the kitchen by @SuperR., with removed KNOX + KNOX apps (Secure Folder, KNOX Settings 1 & 2, Samsung Pay, Samsung Pass, etc.), removed stub apps (Microsoft apps folder) and removed CSC (I will elaborate more below).
As it takes me from 3-6 minutes to download stock firmware, I will be keeping this up to date for people who will need a rescue zip.
Reproduction
The reason why I'm keeping this as clean as possible is because it functions the same way as the Odin package. The AP will be the ROM zip, while you have to flash your own custom kernel, and flash the CSC package by @Tkkg1994. Finally, to top everything off, Magisk will be flashed.
A flowchart of this process (clean flash) is listed below:

Anomalies
At the current stage, this is just the stock Samsung firmware. So any bugs found in the official bugs list of the current firmware revision would be present in this ROM. See the second bracketed codename in the title of this thread.
Do you use Netflix or Amazon Prime Video?
With their Widevine DRM Module, it bypasses anything Magisk Hide has to offer.
Using TWRP, remove /system/lib/liboemcrypto.so, then reboot to system.
If you ever want to restore stock, this is the AQEB binary: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=961840155545569722
Screenshots
There really doesn't need to be any screenshots, unless you have never turned on your phone on stock ROM before...but here, I'll show you Settings.
SafetyNet?
This is a simple phenomenon solved by having both a custom kernel with KNOX 0x0 simulation, like Jesse's kernel, and Magisk v12 installed with Magisk Hide enabled. It is confirmed that CeX respects SafetyNet.

Building with SuperR Kitchen for your own stock region ROM
If you're interested in creating your own flashable ZIP based on a ROM, I will be listing the full instructions on how to get your own stock ROM up and running.
I will be building the latest XXU builds as soon as they drop.
Please do not PM me, instead, post in the thread for people to learn.
Prerequisites:
- Your device MUST be of the Exynos variant, with an available TWRP on the device. If you have a Qualcomm device, close this window now!
- You must have a Linux environment. I know @SuperR.'s kitchen works on Windows using Cygwin, but as an AOSP developer, I work with Linux to build stuff!
- Sudo account
- Collect and utilize as much wits as you can!
- I will be doing all of this from the command line using SSH, no GUI for this!
1) Download the latest SuperR kitchen here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ap...chen-superr-s-kitchen-v1-1-50-v2-1-6-t3597434
by doing this (press enter after each line in this code block):
Code:
curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/github/git-lfs/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt-get install git-lfs
git lfs install
git config --global credential.helper cache
cd ~/
git clone https://bitbucket.org/superr/superrs-kitchen.git
cd superrs-kitchen
./superr
The first time running the kitchen, you may need to install dependencies. It should automatically install all dependencies for you, but if it keeps asking you to install the same dependencies, you should install them using
Code:
sudo apt-get packageName
.
After all dependencies are installed, press 1 to create a new project, and name it whatever you want. In this example I will name it STOCK.
Press Q once the project is created (quits SuperR kitchen)
2) Download your Samsung stock firmware. There are two main sites nowadays to get Samsung stock firmwares from, including Updato and Sammobile.
Updato: http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?q=SM-G955F&rpp=15&order=date&dir=desc&exact=1
Sammobile: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s8/SM-G955F/
You will need to get the firmware on your Linux box, or from Updato, right click Download (the orange button) and click Copy Link.
If you are planning to download from the SSH box, do:
Code:
cd ~/superr-kitchen/superr_STOCK && wget link_of_updato
3) Your firmware file is now ready to be loaded up into the kitchen. So do:
Code:
./superr
Then click 4 to extract for a new ROM, then click "y"
4) When it asks you whether you want to include cache.img, it doesn't really matter if you do or don't. Click "y" and include it in the ROM.
5) It will then ask you to type a name for your output ZIP
6) If it asks you where to locate the partition info from, pick the entry that is recommended, which takes the partition from system.img and recovery.img (Detect by-name from boot/recovery images (recommended))
So simply click 1.
7) Finally, we must set the perm type/archive type of your images. Click 1 for set_metadata (KitKat+)
NOTE: I have tried using Sparse dat for Korean 955N image - which working at a cost of all Google apps crashing/not responding, but doing so on the 955F ZIP will completely break and cause it to get stuck in TWRP trying to flash. set_metadata is the most stable.
8) You can now fiddle with the ROM! It is highly recommended to replace the stock kernel with @jesec's kernel, but make sure you extract his other folders from his ZIP into your working directory (~/superr-kitchen/superr_STOCK/system/*) or you won't boot! You can either opt for this, or just flash the kernel ZIP to retain support from Jesse (this is what I picked for CeX).
Key configurations (the options I picked for CeX):
->7) Boot/Recovery Tools
- Unpack boot.img
- Type 5 and disable forceencrypt
- Type 1 and pack boot.img
->8) ROM Tools Menu
- Asserts Menu (if you're trying to do 955N ROM)
- Add/Remove Device (dream2lte) <- change from dream2lteks or any other model, since TWRP only recognizes dream2lte.
->6) Debloat Menu
- Custom Debloat
- ~/superr-kitchen/tools/root/bloat_custom must be edited to contain these entries (nano ~/superr-kitchen/tools/root/bloat_custom to edit the file):
Code:
system/app/Facebook_stub*
system/app/MSSkype_stub*
system/app/SecureFolderSetupPage*
system/priv-app/OneDrive_Samsung_v2*
system/priv-app/SecureFolder*
system/priv-app/SamsungPass_1.1*
system/priv-app/Excel_SamsungStub*
system/priv-app/PowerPoint_SamsungStub*
system/priv-app/Word_SamsungStub*
system/container*
- Remove Samsung Knox
9) You can make external edits by placing files in ~/superr-kitchen/superr_STOCK/system, or do whatever you want with the APKs
10) Let's start building!
If you left the window, all you have to do is do:
Code:
./superr
8
7
1
This will get you to the ROM zip building screen.
If the kitchen asks if you would like to convert the updater-script to an updater-binary, do it. Now give it some time to build. Usually my computer takes 2-3 minutes.
11) Finally, you can decide whether you want to sign the ZIP or not. Personally, I do not sign my ZIPs.
If you decide to skip signing, you're done! Just type "n" on your keyboard and click "q" to quit the kitchen. Your new ZIP is located in ~/superr-kitchen/superr_STOCK/STOCK_BASED_ROM.zip
You can either move this to your h5ai server, like I do at http://download.projektsubstratum.com/, or you could use transfer.sh here:
Code:
curl --upload-file ./STOCK_BASED_ROM.zip https://transfer.sh/STOCK_BASED_ROM.zip
You could also move it to AndroidFileHost using FTP, if you have a developer account.
This may take a while for the upload to complete, but once it is done, you are ready to flash the four ZIPs:
The ROM
A custom kernel
The CSC utility flasher
Magisk (for SafetyNet)
12) Congratulations, you're done!
Pulling your own CSC files
So you tried to extract the CSC file (cache.img) from the CP tar for Odin but no luck flashing...but you really wanted an up to date version..
Prerequisites:
- Your device MUST be of the Exynos variant, with an available TWRP on the device. If you have a Qualcomm device, close this window now!
- You must have a Linux environment for simg2img
- Sudo account
- Collect and utilize as much wits as you can!
- I will be doing all of this from the command line using SSH, no GUI for this!
1) Download simg2img to your Linux box and build the project
Code:
cd ~/
git clone https://github.com/anestisb/android-simg2img
cd android-simg2img
make
2) After simg2img has been compiled, we will have to use it.
Place your cache.img.ext4, yanked out of the CP.tar.md5 file (renamed to CP.tar) in the same directory of the git cloned repo
If you need a command to extract the .tar file, run:
Code:
tar xf CP.tar
3) Convert the image
Code:
./simg2img cache.img.ext4 cache.raw.img
4) Mount the image
Code:
sudo mkdir /media/csc
sudo mount -t ext4 -o loop cache.raw.img /media/csc
cd /media/csc
5) Copy the prepared flashable CSC zip out of the image
Code:
cp sec_csc.zip ~/
6) Flash the ZIP
7) Boot into the system. If you flashed a multi-CSC, you may need to configure it to be specific to your country.
This will require root, so get yourself into adb shell, then (credits to @jesec):
Code:
adb shell
su
am start com.sec.android.Preconfig/.Preconfig
A window will pop up giving you all the options selectable in your MultiCSC. Clicking and installing any of them will wipe your device, so watch out!
one last reserve post
locking my thread till the upload is finished....
@OP
Great idea bro, thanks a lot.
Nice work! @nicholaschum
Very Good! Thanks!
Sorry, my english is to bad...
Thats mean, if i Flash this Rom and later, when i go back to stock, my knox will be 0x0?
No, KNOX still tripped but with fake 0x0
Good work !! @nicholaschum

Can I ask possibly a dumb question
Is flashing CSC required?
I mean what happens if you don't flash CSC.
I am currently in AU on Vodafone CSC. I would change it to XSA but if I decided not to or forgot to do it. Would the CSC activate based on what is currently set as my CSC there or is this required so the rom can then load the apps based on location?
Perfect Build Perfect ROM. Installed as per instructions and works like a charm. Thanks for the work.

The CSC is required or else Samsung stock ROMs will not know how to configure your phone. This also I closed LTE-A capabilities, wifi calling and VoLTE functionality. Since this ROM does not contain any CSC you could flash the DBT CSC from the flashing utility which is the default CSC on most ROMs that is Germany debranded.
@nicholaschum - thanks for sharing this ROM. i'm using as a daily driver for my "work device" in combination with the ATT CSC flashed via TK's CSC package. if/when Substratum is available for TW based S8 ROMs, can i assume your ROM will support it? thanks for taking time to read/respond to my question.
Just installed. Silky smooth! Great work op

Yes. That is the whole point behind it , keeping it stockish with subs support when it arrives.
I want install it, but i dont what do..
I want sale my phone later and get Note 7.
Is complicate if we cant use Samsung pay when we back to stock.
@nicholaschum Thanks heaps for this, took the leap and followed the instructions. Very simple task! now running XSA CSC with AQEB
