[PATCH][ICS][CM9] PDroid patch for CM9 - CWM Flashable ZIP

Hey guys,
Alroger has included a patched framework into one of his builds, offering support for PDroid. Based on their work, the modified JAR files seem to do the work nicely. Therefore, you can find the patched and unpatched versions of the files in CWM flashable format attached to this post.
Please report back if it works for you, as it will be valuable feedback to the team porting PDroid to ICS.
For more info on PDroid, go here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1357056
For more info on the port of PDroid to ICS, go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1554960
Notes & Observations
- Only compatible with official CM9 (Android 4.0.3 and 4.0.4).
- Only compatible with Recovery 3.0.x or later (should not be a problem with recent/modern ROMs/builds).
- This build is only compatible with SGT7 device variants and the CM9 builds released for these devices.
However, if you indeed get into trouble, try clearing cache, dalvik cache and flashing your original ROM on top of this package. No data wipe should be required!
Download & Install:
Download OP post attachment of your choice (based on CM9 0421 nightly)
Flash P1-PDroid-CM9-0421-CWM.ON.v2.zip to apply patch
Flash P1-PDroid-CM9-0421-CWM.OFF.v2.zip to remove patch
Save zips onto your Tab
Reboot in Recovery mode
Install zip from SD Card
Reboot tab & wait for Android to upgrade
Install PDroid app from market (market link)
Enjoy
Disclaimer
I will not offer support to anyone in case these ZIPs cause any harm or damage in any way. You are responsible of your own actions including flashing anything to your device!
Thanks and Credits
Thanks, in no particular order to these guys:
svyat for the initial work
pastime1971 for the ICS port
alroger for building the patched framework files compatible with CM9 and giving me his blessing to pack the patched framework files
Let me know of any issues or success stories in the thread.
Peace,
C.

I don't need to flash this patch as I already use alroger's build of CM9 ROM with PDroid (2012-04-24), but I just wanted to say thank you, as this is excellent news for next time when I don't use a ROM that already includes PDroid patches!
http://cafe-ti.blog.br/1524~sgt7-p1000-android-ics-cm9-mtd.html

Is this device specific?

It runs on all SGT7 variants running official CM9 build.
It won't work for other ROMs or other devices than SGT7.
PS: if it runs on something else, it is only by chance!
Peace,
C.

Ok...thanks anyway.
From the OP it read like it was good for any cm9.
Hope nobody flashes it on the wrong device.
Luckily I was smart enough to ask first.

I thought it is common sense since this is SGT7 forum?

Yes, @cheatman's post is exactly for the official cm9 nightly p1 and p1c (Galaxy Tab 7 GSM and CDMA).
And he offers the removal of the patch also, in case you have any problems.

thanks will give it a go

Hi Cheatman,
Will this work on AOKP ICS?
Or will it need a different one? Can you build one?
Thanks!!

First thing: updated OP post to avoid confusion.
Secondly @priyana: It will probably break AOKP builds as the framework is heavily modified compared to CM9. You could try to flash it and report back, but be ready to flash AOKP again on top of it if it bugs out.
If you have issues, you will not need to restock or wipe data. You can just flash AOKP again on top of it and it should return to normal after a reboot.
Peace,
C.

Thanks Cheatman.
Just to feed back here.
I just tried applying it on my aokp build #31 but can't boot into the OS.
Flashed the from again on top of it and I am back to aokp like you said.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA

Same for me with AOKP. After installing the ON package it boots up to the part of updating, the next start it doesn't boot up anymore and is stuck on the bootlogo and makes a short vibration in repeated intervalls.
Installed the OFF package, updated on first boot, doesn't work anymore on next boot just like the ON package.
Too bad for me as I'm going to use the train now and could've used the tab.
Thanks anyway and I'm still interested in this and would hope to see a fix.

You can still use the tab by flashing aokp again.
All data intact in my case.

I know that and did that already because OP wrote that in the first post:
"However, if you indeed get into trouble, try clearing cache, dalvik cache and flashing your original ROM on top of this package."
Works as usual but no pdroid.

OK.
Read you wrongly because you said too bad, you "could have used the tab"
I thought you meant now it is unusable/broken, hence the reminder.

[ROM][UNOFFICIAL][4.4.3][D2TMO/D2LTE] Omni Rom for all D2s [Multi-window][OpenDelta]

This is an unofficial build of Omni Rom based on KitKit 4.4.2. There is no official support for the d2 variants. Props to androidsftw for picking apart what was needed for our d2s.
I am not the dev of this rom, all I did was add in necessary device/vendor/d2 files for d2. This is not a port, everything has been built from source.
As with all things root, I am not responsible for anything that happens while flashing this rom. You take responsibility for your actions. Nandroid is your friend.
----------------------------------
Downloads:
Omni Rom for the D2LTE - Droidhype Roms
GAPPS 4.4.2 - PA 0-Day
SuperSU - Chainfire
Kernel (optional) - BMS
----------------------------------
Installing for the first time? Grab the newest full zip from the D2LTE directory. For future updates, just go to Settings -> System Updates and let the magic happen.
HOW TO INSTALL
1. Factory Data reset
2. Wipe System/Data/Dalvik/Cache
3. Install ROM zip from Sdcard
4. Install GAPPS zip from Sdcard
5. Install SuperSU from Sdcard
6. Reboot to home screen to confirm good flash
7. (Optional) Reboot to recovery and flash kernel
TO USE DELTAS, YOU HAVE TO USE TWRP OR PHILZ RECOVERY. CWM WILL NOT WORK BECAUSE IT DISABLES SCRIPTING CAPABILITIES BY DEFAULT. If there's anything that you want the updater to flash automatically after it flashes your update, put the file(s) in the FlashAfterUpdate directory inside your Opendelta folder in your internal storage.
Join the BMS G+ community which will have quicker release info in the future for all things BMS and roms.
Enjoy!
Cherry-picks:
- Multi-window
This build is unofficial, so I don't exactly carry around a changelog. However, you can always check cmxlog for omni and see what's been changed with each version of one of their nightlies. It won't be exact as some have specific device merges, but it will give you a good idea. The dates on my builds will correspond with the officials listed on cmxlog.
You can also check their gerrit or git to see what's been merged.
This question gets posted pretty frequently so if some users could please bookmark this post, we can just repost it when needed. Here are all the links you can peruse for your changelog/update enjoyment.

So what I'm getting is that a d2lte build will work on all d2 variants, no updater-script editing required?

Screenies??

As GideonX has said, these builds support all the d2 variants. Everything is automatically done during flashing. You don't need to do anything but flash like normal

downloaded and working

4.4 needs special twrp jyst in case you restored back on to tw or never updated.
Anyways seems like the rom had little to offer in my personal opinion. I decided to just go an restore previous rom instead

Try PA's gapps. If you're talking about how no letters actually get inputted on the screen even though it is showing the swipe, then that's what you need.

Can someone on tmobile verify uploading pictures and video works with this rom in instagram? it may be a kitkat issue with instagram but previously I have gotten a lot of freezes, FC, and reboots while trying to upload video. anybody willing to test this on the latest release?

[ROM][5.1][Flounder] Pure AOSP 3/18/15 [LMY47D]

Hello! I'll be posting pure AOSP builds whenever there are new versions of android released (providing I have the time).
If you choose to use these builds, please ensure you have unlocked your bootloader and have custom recovery installed. I have also noticed that TWRP seems a little wonky at this point, so in order for me to flash it correctly, I had to wipe, then restart recovery, then flash. Hope that's not the case for everyone else.
3/18/15
Added ability to change DPI.
3/15/15
No longer messes with recovery at all. Bluetooth working, data does not force encrypt.
3/13/15
Android 5.1.0_r1 (LMY47D)
This release will wipe your recovery. If anyone needs this changed let me know and I will build another.
1/3/2015
Android 5.0.2_r1 (LRX22G)
Data is now encryptable, meaning your unencrypted data should stick going forward.
Included my own build of stock kernel with Linaro 4.9.3 toolchain.
Fixed bluetooth (thanks Lollipopalooza/Craig)
No longer need to re-flash recovery.
12/6/2014
Android 5.0.1_r1 (LRX22C)
You will need to install separate gapps
You will need to re-flash your custom recovery after you install (you all let me know if I should change this or not, I think I will on future builds)
I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device or to you, yourself while flashing this.
Latest DL Links will be in post #2.

From what I understand the apps themselves need to be optimized for 64 internally. These are all Google apps so they are if Google did so. As you update from the play store you don't choose if you're running 64bit or not.
As always I can be wrong.

Adaptive brightness doesn't work. Other than that everything seems to be working.
Edit: Okay so I used an app to look at which sensors were working and which ones weren't... The proximity sensor is not working at all.

I use USBhost's version of TWRP. I tried to flash the rom following directions in OP. It wouldn't flash. First it said for flounder and this device is flounder. Also said something about updater binary. I got this with the other rom also. I tried un-mounting and mounting system, but I still got the error messages. Any ideas?

I manually changed it to work with official twrp... Not sure why twrp is calling it volantis instead of flounder but that's why. Also, to get anything to flash in twrp at the moment, I have to reboot recovery after wiping. Hope this helps.

[ROM] BeanStalk Kitkat 4.4.4 Resurected-Unofficial

BeanStalk Kitkat 4-4-4 resurected and remixed. For those of us who prefer stable devices versus half baked lollipops...
Changes:
1. 7 second delay (blank screen) after Sony logo and before boot animation starts - fixed
2. Camera updated to latest (no lag, no focus problems)
3. Latest libs and firmware files
4. Slimlauncher (new open source launcher from Slimroms)
5. Slim keyboard, which is 12mb size, as opposed to bloated CM's 43mb
6. Paranoid bootanimation
7. TWRP recovery
8. Modified version of [CM] X-Honami Kernel with TWRP 2.8 (must be flashed separately, see download section)
Maybe more...
Rom and Kernel (to be flashed separately) are in Download section
Credits: Original Developer Scott; Giveme13s; Alnikki25k; Cyanogenmod; Slimroms; Paranoid; maybe others - let me know if I forgot you
Instructions:
1. If you are on CWM, go to Mounts, mount System/Cache/Data and format each
2. If you are on TWRP, go Wipe/Advanced, wipe System/Cache/Data/Dalvik
3. Flash the rom (you can boot and start using it with included stock-custom kernel), but I recommend X-Honami Kernel by Alnikki25K, modified by me to include TWRP 2.8; for this
4. Flash the attached Zip file (see Download section)

I am running this rom and have no problems with Titanium. You shouldn't have problems if you were running CM based rom before, but some stock apps won't work. Also, you have to tinker with Titanium restore options. Also, if you are trying to restore system app, you might have a problem (in this case, manually transfer it to /system/apps. I don't think Kitkat allows you to install apps on SD card (unless you manually transfer them from internal storage)....

I tried this rom just after it came out.
I was pretty impressed by the camera experience.
But I think that BeanStalk is a little bit "dirty".
@optimumpro
Could you make a PA Bulid with all of your device specific changes.
I also think that an stable kitkat is better than some hacky lollipop without camera.

I really can't touch PA or Liquid, because original threads are active. Beanstalk thread is closed. They need to be closed, since there is no further development. I have also fixed Dirty Unicorn problems, but it can't be built from sources and the current author is not responding to my PMs...

Correct me if im wrong but I thought, that opensource means that everyone can copy the source, modify it and bulid it.
Of course with credits given to the author.

You are right, but neither liquid nor dirty unicorn builds from source (multiple errors indicating missing resources) and errors in script. Sometimes, developers change a few things in sources to make it impossible to build for others. This is a way to go around GPL 3. I am not saying liquid and dirty unicorn do it, but somehow they can build, but others can't. In addition, XDA has a rule: only one rom of the same version per device forum

Any mirrors?
Looks nice, and will look forward to try it, but the download time is estimated to 3-5 hours, and I have already got download-error twise. Thanks

Cyanogenmod 14.1 official nightly

Hi all,
Seems there is a CM14.1 nightly now available for find7s on the official CM site, link here: hxxps://download.cyanogenmod.org/?type=nightly&device=find7s
Was just wondering if anyones given it a go yet, and if so knows whether or not it supports LVM and how stable the rom is?
Haven't found any info that states one way or the other, hoping someone knows.
Thanks in advance.

About the storage support:
Stock -> YES
LVM - NO
Coldbird - Not tested
Chinese - YES
New display:
Cant test it because i havent the new display
At the moment no theme engine
Is stable for daily driver FROM MY POINT OF VIEW

Its a little bit weird that there is not available yet on the page https://www.cmxlog.com/14.1/
Hope it will appear here soon as well as it is already here:
(Find 7a) https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=find7
and
(Find 7) https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=find7s

Dirty flashed cm-14.1-20161205-NIGHTLY over cm-14.1-20161201-UNOFFICIAL via menu CyanogenMod updates. Everything seems to be OK. One remark: boot time when update is completed is quite long, so be patient. Of course in order to not see "SD corrupted" it is necessary to flash cm-13.0-find7-unified-storage-patch.zip
EDIT: Just for your information: boot animation CM face is gone. Now there is word "android" in plain white.

great news

Finally there we are changes logs:
https://www.cmxlog.com/14.1/find7/
https://www.cmxlog.com/14.1/find7s/

Android 7.1.1 in the next nightly

CyanogenMod will never support LVM.
This is 7.1 right? Or is it 7.0? I downloaded the 7.1 GAPPS, which should be correct for this build...
I updated it, and it runs smooth without any force crashes and nonsense. (Besides the time I tried to open an app not built for nougat, =P. If you're hesistant about updating, don't think, just do it.

And yes you need to flash Wuxianlin's patch after every upgrade just for aesthetic purpose, that is to fix the SDcard damage info bug, unless CM find7 maintainer will fix that, and when it happen you will no longer need to flash the Wuxianlin's CM13 patch.

I am on crdroid right now (LVM) and i really want to try this. Please tell me in short how to revert back to stock partition and then flash this.

1. If you are on LVM you need to back to stock partition layout. Just google for "Find 7 unbrick tool" for procedure. "Sahara" tool is available for download here: http://d3bzg7dsosz4ht.cloudfront.net/OTA/Find7/FIND7WX_12_A.09_140810.tgz
2. Setup Chinese partition layout: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64149659&postcount=3
3. Flash wuxianlin's version of TWRP: link available under point 10. on http://community.oppo.com/en/thread-47844-1-1.html
4. Flash cm-14.1 last official nightly build: https://www.cmxlog.com/14.1/find7/
5. Flash nano open gaaps
6. Flash SU
7. Flash cm-13.0-find7-unified-storage-patch
8. Enjoy newest, very stable and fast Android 7.1.1.

OMG! No! Just need to flash "unlvm" script to revert to stock layout, that is supported by this ROM. Then flash ROM, gapps and SuperSU.
Anyway, to configure chinese storage, if desired, step 1 is unnecesary: just step 2 is enough.
And, of course, don't forget to make a backup in external SD because any choosen method (unbrick tool, setup chinese storage or revert LVM) erases both data and internal card.
Edit:
Here you can find the removelvm_find7_FULL_WIPE script needed to revert to stock layout; flashing it from TWRP is the only you need. When in stock again, you can proceed as usual flashing ROM, gapps and everything you want.

Thanks everyone for the info, might hold off as I have LVM, here's hoping that namelessrom put out an official nougat rom in the not too distant future.

New Display is not supported. Colors, ghosting, and bleeding will still be running wild just like all older CM.
The only Custom ROM on the planet that fully supports new display is OmniROM and it seems that they could use some help. Please support their effort: omnirom.org

I think you can install substratum theme in CM14.1 (but only substratum themes that support Android 7.1.1), since there no theme engine inside CM14.1
