DO NOT INSTALL ON HONEYCOMB (yet)

About
NightMode itself is an implementation of Jeff Sharkey's excellent power-saving and night-vision-preserving idea for surfaceflinger effects. Really, you should read that link.
The red mode is great in darkness as it does a good job preserving night-vision, for me the power-saving is secondary (power-saving is on OLED screens only)
Unlike Jeff's original article, NightMode is NOT based on surfaceflinger (or other) source modifications, the same effect (more or less) is achieved by using a proxy driver I call CF3D. NightMode serves as the first test of this driver, which will ultimately try to make games run on your device that normally do not.
If you are running CM, you have a similar option already in your settings (which uses the surfaceflinger method).
CF3D driver
The CF3D driver used in the app is a proof-of-concept proxy driver I'm building. It's ultimate purpose is to serve as a compatibility layer and to implement some extra features. Or in normal people English: make stuff work that doesn't, and add some cool.
CF3D is dangerous
The installation of the CF3D driver is not without risk. So far it has worked for everyone who has tried to install it, but you should definitely make a CWM backup before trying!
Successful tests of CF3D
- HTC Hero (not supported by this APK)
- HTC HD2 (MDJ on NAND, Adreno200)
- Samsung Galaxy S (2.3.3, PowerVR SGX540)
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 7" (2.3.3, PowerVR SGX540)
- Samsung Galaxy SII (2.3.3, Mali-400 MP)
- Motorola Atrix 4G (2.2.1 ?, Tegra2)
- Motorola Droid 2 (?, PowerVR SGX530)
- LG Optimus 2X (2.3.4, Tegra2)
More about NightMode !
The featureset is nowhere near what I wanted to release for this beta, but I ran into a lot of snags, and it's simply time to put it out there. For example, what I really wanted is automatic night mode in the dark. However after some testing it became obvious that the light sensors in the phones I used are simply not good enough to accomplish this. So there goes that feature For some reason, they appear to be unable to distinguish between house lighting at night, and pitch black
So the feature set has become really simple: you select which night mode color you want, and whether it should be on or off.
For your convenience, there is also the option to create a shortcut on your home screen to toggle night mode on and off. You can either create it by pressing the button in the app, or: tap-and-hold on the home screen -> shortcuts -> Toggle NightMode.
Requirements
NightMode requires:
- OpenGL ES 2.0 (every 1ghz+ phone has this)
- SuperUser / Root
- Writable /system (it will try to remount system as read/write when needed, but the changes need to stick between reboots)
- S-OFF ??
- Having root access from recovery is a big plus to solve problems if you run into them
Installation
If you have CWM or another recovery-based backup system, make a backup before proceeding !
Install the APK as you would any other. Open the program, and press the "Install" item under the "CF3D driver" heading. This will attempt to install the CF3D driver and reboot your device.
Please make sure you have USB debugging enabled, so you can logcat and potentionally fix problems manually in case of a no-boot.
When installation fails and your device doesn't boot
- If you can achieve root access through ADB shell while booting or in recovery, the fix is usually easy, just execute the /system/lib/cf3d_uninstall.sh script as root.
- Otherwise, if you have CWM, do an advanced restore of the /system partition
- If all else fails, reflash the /system partition or the entire firmware
Uninstallation
Open the app, and select "Uninstall" (if available), then uninstall the APK like you would any other.
Thanks!
Though the app itself may not be very interesting, feedback on devices it does and doesn't work on is most welcome (please include logcats of the boot process), just for the sake of progress with the CF3D proxy driver.

Thanks to the entire reading session that was well worth it I understood it was not at all a Ripoff of the color effects that are in CyanogenMod, not even related.
Actually the concept is super powerful and I'm already flooded by ideas of new stuff possible with this approach.
Fantastic stuff Chainfire.

I really have been waiting for something like this since i got my first android device. Absolutely awesome.
Atrix.

Heehee, updated to v1.1 already... seems I left some debug code in there that disabled PowerVR textures

This sounds really cool . But all the technical stories behind it are completely unclear to me (because I am simply a user, not a maker, so I didn't really delve into this kind of stuff (yet?)).
The thing that matters to me is the battery saving part. Is the amount of battery saving (roughly) the same between these different methods (CF3D/CM7/surfaceflinger)?
And being sufficiently scared by your CF3D is dangerous warnings: did you receive any reports yet from SGS i9000 2.2.1 Users? (Or maybe even more specific, JS8 or Doc rom users, if you think that matters anything.)
I will keep my eye on this, quite interesting .

Tried and tested on Rooted UK Galaxy S2
PDA:XWKE1
PHONE: XXKDJ
CSC:XEUKD1 (XEU)
Install, reboot, Night Mode, all went without a hitch and work as expected.

THIS IS AWESOME (have not tried)

The amount of battery saving should be exactly the same. The battery saving is a property of OLED screens, when not all colors are used. OLED only sends power to pixels that aren't black (for example in red mode, green and blue pixels will remain black, thus not use any power). It has nothing to do with the method used to get there.
There have been no 2.2.1 reports yet, btw.

It works perfectly on my Optimistic 2X

[Q] Files from Samsung Mesmerize (US Celluar version of Fascinate) work on Fascinate?

So it looks like the Samsung Mesmerize has now been released on US Celluar and can be rooted via the same method as the Fascinate. According to initial reviews there is no Bing and very little bloat.
Has anyone managed to get their hands on any of the Mesmerize files / apks yet? Maybe this could finally de-Bing our stock browser? Would also be nice to see what their Touchwiz and calendar are like. Also, wonder if they have a cardock app that works with Google Navigation instead of the junk VZNavigator?
What are your thoughts? What other apps should we be looking at from the Mesmerize ROM?
Crazy thought - Could one back up service programming in QPST on their Fascinate, then flash the Mesmerize ROM, then restore service programming?

Non-informative reply...
I was just posting the same info.
Glad someone else is thinking this too.
I hope we can get someone with the "balls" to try it.
And them someone with the "brains" to make it work.
Looks like this guy may have already tried by accident:

Haha. I too have been wondering about this. I always have to remember when I'm in the browser to back out and press the search button to look up things, or else I'll get Binged. I wonder if they tweaked any apps for that phone in comparison to ours? It seems like Sammy made subtle differences in the os between each Galaxy phone. This could be a potential gold mine.
The source is nearly identical
Did a diff and wadded through the results, mostly removal of source for BTL-IF driver under platform and addition of consecutive/rapid shot that was not in the original release and a few minor grammatical changes. Other than that (changes to approx 64 files, they are nearly identical. I will attempt to compile and flash later today.

saweet!!!!!
I rooted my Mesmerize yesterday with the help of oneclick. I needed USBDeview to get my foot in the door, though.
I swear to god at one point my phone had me do the little puzzle piece unlock deal after it hibernated, but for the life of me I can't find where to get that to happen again.
Anyway, I'm pretty much a noob when it comes to smart phones, but I rooted no problem (because it is no problem) and I'm now familiar with my file system (via terminal emulator and linux commands).
What next? Should I use my new root ability to make a backup? Does the Mesmerize have any ROMs that can help me get rid of the U.S. Cellular splash screen on start up? Cyanogenmod?
I will make a relatively willing software tester for this group.
I'd recommend installing ClockworkMod Recovery and getting a full backup.
Do you know for certain that Fascinate's cwm will work for the Mesmerize?
System Dump...
Mods delete this if I'm not supposed to do this...
Someone on AndroidCentral.com posted the system dump for the Mesmerize.
(In case link doesnt work google: Androidcentral mesmerize rom dump)

Attached are two patches that add the changes from USCC source to VZW source, and a second patch that adds the kernel changes to the jt1134 kernel I pulled from git last night. I still haven't attempted to compile the updated kernel yet but for those who have a free minute and would like to try it before I can here are the changes:
Addition of continuous photo shot to kernel (videodev2-samsung)
Changes to timing in RTC section (rtc-max8998,rtc-s3c)
Addition of Voice Recognition routines (wm8994)
Changes to volume levels (wm8994)
Changes to pin status in S5PC110 (mach-jupitorm)
Change to head jack status (sec_jack)
SD card check routines (setup-sdhi)
IRQ status change from RANDOM to DISABLED (s3c-keypad)
Addition WRITE_COMMAND_CONFIG/command processor/IRQ changes to (qt602240/touchscreen)
Add ram dump to POWER+VOLUP (input)
Possible better checking and fix for for BATT missing/temp error (power)
Addition of FSA9480 JIT gadget drivers (not sure what for yet s5pc110_battery)
Addition of FSA9480 JIT gadget drivers (not sure what for yet fsa9480_i2c)
Addition of includes (plat-s3c24xx, too many to list in config)
Change tcp input define from 1 to 0 (tcp_input)
Removal of BTL-IF driver source from platform tree
It is possible I may have missed something so please do not consider this 100% complete.
I Hope this has helped someone else out.
Check page 3 post 28 of Memorize source discussion for updated patch and compiled kernels with and without voodoo. Enjoy, been running mine for about 6 hours now, no problems thus far.

*** Galaxy Tab Master Tweak Thread***

Hi everyone.
Id like to start a thread where we collect, post and discuss all known individual tweaks and changes that can be made to the Galaxy Tab in order to gain performance and stability.
My experience with the Galaxy Tab has been similar to my latest phone, an HTC HD2. When I got the HD2 about one year ago, I positively hated it... slow, unstable, all sorts of problems, lags, crashes... its the way most of the hardware today is released. One year later, my HD2 has become the most amazing machine I've ever owned. From pushing it 1.6GHz stable, to tweaking registry, XML files, services and making everything work well. I remember not being able to watch smooth video on the HD2 to being able to watch flawlessly 720p content and going from the extreme of detesting the phone to loving it.
It was with the HD2 I discovered Android and fell in love with it. Since I have now two HD2s I have one with an SD ROM version of Gingerbread (that I can dual boot still from Windows Mobile) and a Froyo NAND. I run Android on the HD2 much much much faster and smoother than on the Galaxy Tab, that I also hated when I bought it a few weeks and that am starting to like after getting to know it, a new ROM, apps, etc. Even at 1GHz stock the HD2 with Froyo is vastly faster, smoother, more responsive and better to use. The approach d like to do as far as tweaking the Galaxy Tab is the same as I did for the HD2 with Windows Mobile, that is, install the best/fastest ROM I can, delete and remove all stuff I don't need and then tweak what's left.
The tweaks I've done so far on the Galaxy are simple but have made a huge difference. Id like with this thread to be able to collect individual tweaks and post them all here to share with everyone.
Im using Roto JMI Pre-Rooted Firmware v2 which was the main step after getting rid of the stock Samsung Rom that is nothing but a collection of problems.
The first thing I learned with this Tab is that WHATEVER IS ON YOUR HOME SCREENS THAT MOVES, IS BAD! Forget about having ANY type of apps or widgets that do any type of refresh, including stuff running on the upper task bar if they change icons or the move around… that mean a CPU cycle and refresh each time and there goes the tab's performance and battery life. The same goes for any type of Live Wallpaper. Beautiful but deadly. Never touch them!
- So, after a new ROM, the first thing I did was changing the file system to EXT4. This is the SINGLE BEST THING you can do to radically improve the performance of the Tab. Its extremely easy to do and the step-by-step instructions are as follow:
- Make sure you have an miniSD Card in with plenty of available space (it will be used automatically to backup your system during the conversion process)
- Get p1000-mck-r3-ext4-cwm.tar (the EXT4 Conversion Kernel)
- Connect the Tab in Downloading Mode to your PC via USB, start Odin3 1.7 and load the Kernel (click on the PDA button and select the p1000-mck-r3-ext4-cwm.tar and make sure PDA stays ticked after selecting the file).
- UNTICK Re-Partition check box and make sure the only boxes ticked are:
Auto Reboot
F. Reset Time
The PDA tickbox
- Click start and wait for PASS! (it will show highlighted green or Yellow on Odin)
- Now the Tab will restart and get stuck on the Samsung loading screen. This is normal. Turn it off by holding the power button for 5 seconds.
- Turn on the Tab again on into RECOVERY mode (Press Volume UP and Power On at the same time) and the EXT4 conversion will start automatically. The process will take up to one hour depending on how much stuff you have on your Tab. It took about 10 minutes on mine because I have a fresh install of Roto JMI v2.
- Once finished, click "Reboot System Now" (by pressing the power button).
- The reboot may take a while first time so be patient!
- Done!
- After that, the first tweak I did was to get rid of all my favorite widgets that moved around… net meter, news, weather and all these beautiful things KILL the Tab. Equally I had a CPU meter on the tray refreshing every 2 seconds and it took me a while to figure out that was the reason why every 2 seconds the system would stutter, whether watching a movie or browsing the web. So, out!
- Next was to install SetCPU under the ON DEMAND setting, minimum around 750MHz and maximum 1000MHz (unfortunately only with a custom Kernel you can go higher, currently up to 1.4GHz but not full stable and with lots of issues pending so I don’t recommend it)
- My following step was to get rid of the stock Samsung Homescreen (that is a resource hog and slow as hell) and replace it with a new one. I've tried them all and am making no recommendation here but the one that works for me and is by far the best IMO is LauncherPro. This single app makes using the Tab a whole better experience.
- Next was to disable the USELESS and (resource pig) Gallery and replace it with an app called QuickPic that is blazing fast (actually instant) and simply amazing to browse and view all media on the Tab.
- Next was to greatly improve the poor native GPS reception by replacing high performance files and drivers from the Orange Rom P1000JHKA1 that seems to work on all versions of the Tab, as originally posted here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922692
- With SystemApp Remover 4.12 I have disabled all system apps and services I don’t need (BE VERY CAREFUL AND DON'T REMOVE ROM APPS YOU WILL NEED). I have actually deleted some from ROM (Root access required of course), this includes useless stuff like STK Service starting every time, most of the Samsung stuff that I really don’t care for and just about all apps I know for sure I will never open a single time. Now, its important to understand if these apps are removed they will be removed PERMANENTLY from ROM so to get the back a hard reset will not be enough, you'll have to fully flash the ROM again. For most system apps I don’t use but am not sure, I use a different option and that is to simply disable them. In my case this includes all Bluetooth stuff (I never use it and even if it's off the Services are still running robbing performance and memory) and apps like the built-in Browser, Email and Messaging that suck and that I replaced with better apps. Its always a safer bet, at least initially to disable the apps you don’t need that uninstall them because at least you can go back and change your mind This is one area where Id like to learn more. There are many background services that I don’t know what they do and if they can be disabled or not. If someone knows what each one does and the safety of getting rid of them OR NOT, it would be great to post it here!
- Them, with Startup Auditor 2.3.2 I have disabled all unnecessary apps that start automatically every time the Tab boots so I don't have excess applications starting up that are not needed. Some I configured to be killed AGAIN if the system tries to restart them later after the boot-up
- Using Task Manager 1.0.7 and letting always run on background, I have configured all apps that I don’t need running to be auto-killed every time the phone goes to stand-by (screen off). This saves me lots of memory and CPU time on apps that I am actually not using.
- Finally, I monitor what is going on with an app called CPU Usage Timeliness Free 1.7.1.0 and use it to see EXACTLY which applications are using CPU cycles and interfering with performance. With it I have found that on my Tab I have an unsolved problem that is using over 100MB of memory and non-stop CPU usage between 15% and 45% of something called SECURITY STORAGE. I have no idea what it does. It can't be disabled and I don’t know where all the activity comes from. If someone know more about this and how to fix it, that will be great. Most of the performance issues I have on my Tab come from this Service that I don’t know how to tame. Surely, we can find a solution.
The system background services is one area where I'd like to know one by one, what each service does and if we need them or not, if it can be tweaked, disabled or deleted. Below is a complete list of the services I have safely disabled so far that have given me great performance boosts and with no negative issues on the system (IN BOLD), and OTHERS I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE ABOUT (not bold). Please note these are background services that start automatically. The changes made to the disabled apps/services is that they are reverted to ON-DEMAND so they all still work perfectly.

Originally with my Tab I was getting Quadrant below 600 on average. Now, its always over 1900. This is not a "little" improvement, this is amazing upgrading. But id like this to be a starting point to learn and share more ways with everyone we can all share on things we can do to make the Tab as good as it was intended to be for everyone
Cheers!
1.4 oc is stable, and doesn't have any issues for alot of users.
all the things you disabled are all the things i use every day lol
never the less, good post, im going to use a couple apps you mentioned.

The first block of disabled items (in bold) from CALENDAR to WORLD CLOCK are disabled start-ups but the apps works as usual. It just frees resources not required on boot till you actually start the application when you want.
The second block from Bluetooth Services to Voice Search are all disabled as I use none of those. Items disabled can be restarted again at any time upon activating them follwing a reboot, while items deleted (like Samsung Apps and STK) are gone forever.
Ive never flashed a ModaCo Kernel and got lots of feedback regarding probelms with 1.4OC. Do you have any issues at all or none? We are using different ROMs... What Quadrant do you get currently?
Cheers
Thank you for your post.
You have solved many of my questions. Also I am User of HD2 and had the same impressions, but now with Android Nand everything was great, also started to love it.
As for GTAB'll make those adjustments you suggested, some will not disable because I use Bluetooth as an example.
Any news please keep posting.
Success!

So far the oc is good, things load a little faster, especially nfs shift. Last run of quadrant was 2300-2400.
Ill try it again later after these optimizations and see how it goes, a member here has gotten 3000.
Having done nothing but root, my tab gets about 1000 quadrant score. I have tried setcpu using on demand and it actuall has made my tab worse. I am very hesitant to flash anything on the tab. It seems very involved and complicated. I have an HD2 as well and have been flashing since Android was on SD. That process is simple. Everything I have read about flashing things to the tab doesn't look that way. I really havent had any issues with my tab as stock other than a bit laggy at times. I would like to hear more about all of this. The oppinions I have read are either do it or don't do it. There are more problem posts after attempting to flash than there are good ones where it worked. I really could care less about a quadrant score to be honest, but I would like to have a faster smoother running tab. I really dont care about making calls on it either. Thats why I have a phone. JMO. I think part of the issue in this thread is that there are Euro and USA version which are completely different and require different roms and such.
I have been reading and lurking in the tab development thread for a while now and am not impressed with any of it yet. Maybe someone could shed some light on things and change my mind.

I agree. The process of flashing the Galaxy is much more dauting than anything on the HD2. I suggest you do the EXT4 file converstion. All you need is follow the step by step I wrote above. It makes a huge difference. As for everything else, I too hold off to do too much flashing. The ROM I use now is great and lighter than stock but your seems to work well so keep it. For me when a ROM is good I just use it. When I bought the HD2 I flashed it 2 times with a custom ROM till i found one that worked for me and kept it for 8 months. But backing up and restoring WinMo is much easier... on Androind its all more complicated if you dont know what you are doing. Disable some start-ups on your unit, convert the file system to EXT4 and make sure you have nothing on your home screen doing a lot of refreshing and your tab will work great

Is everything working 100% on that ROM? I do not want any ROMS that are having problems.
I too am not impressed with anything that us out yet...seems like any ROM process is tedious and complicated.
Glad the thread starter modified his tab to his liking, but what's the point of having it if you need to drastically change everything. I have a rooted DInc and not use any of things......didn't really see a performance gain with set CPU.
I'm going to continue waiting for something more reliable and use my tab the way it was meant to be, with all its hardware and widgets.

Having done nothing but root, my tab gets about 1000 quadrant score. I have tried setcpu using on demand and it actuall has made my tab worse. I am very hesitant to flash anything on the tab. It seems very involved and complicated. I have an HD2 as well and have been flashing since Android was on SD. That process is simple. Everything I have read about flashing things to the tab doesn't look that way. I really havent had any issues with my tab as stock other than a bit laggy at times. I would like to hear more about all of this. The oppinions I have read are either do it or don't do it. There are more problem posts after attempting to flash than there are good ones where it worked. I really could care less about a quadrant score to be honest, but I would like to have a faster smoother running tab. I really dont care about making calls on it either. Thats why I have a phone. JMO. I think part of the issue in this thread is that there are Euro and USA version which are completely different and require different roms and such.
I have been reading and lurking in the tab development thread for a while now and am not impressed with any of it yet. Maybe someone could shed some light on things and change my mind.

Thank you for your detailed post. While I agree with you that the stock SGT rom and browser suck but where do you think the JMI, JMF, JMx ROMs coming from?
Most ROMs I've seen (except for CM) are based from some sort of Jxx
Please keep the tweak posts going. Good stuff and thanks!

My boy,
Only getting my Galaxy tomorrow but looking through threads on my favorite forum.
And guess the first one I happen into... I will follow avidly.
Hi dubie76,
Try an app called OCLF 2.0 on the Market. It is a Lag fix app for the Samsung Galaxy S which also works on the Tab.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rc.QuickFixLagFixR2
You have to install EXT2 tools and then install one click lag fix, both are done within the app.
I had this on my Tab before flashed to a custom ROM. The tab was much faster and did not have and lag compared to stock, the Quadrant score was around 1900.
Also you can uninstall the modifications in the app and easily reverse back to stock. The only disadvantage is you will loss about 800mb of internal memory (the 2Gb space), so if you don't have much space left, you will need to uninstall some apps and reinstall them once you applied the lag fix.
P.S. thanks to OP for the SystemApp Remover & Startup Auditor suggestion.
Custom ROMs?
Hi everyone!
Consider this:
The locked GTab (in standby) on an original ROM with a connected to it BT headset wakes up after replying a call from BT and can potentially have anything pressed as being in the bag due to its size...
My point is that there is NO fix for this on XDA therefore why should I expect any significant advancements from a custom ROM if such simple things cannot be fixed on Android.
My personal view is that Android is unfortunatelly not as flexible for adjustments as WinMo (i have HD2 as well with a wonderful custom Artemis ROM).
I've tried two Roto ROMs on my GT and they havent provided any noticeable enhancements in performance to my eye (perhaps some rating went up - I dont care about tech stats). I reverted to stock ROM P1000XWJMI that works as fast for a "regular user".
I am sad to resume my experience with hacking the GT as not worth it: you get serious risk of getting the GT bricked (much more complicated than with WinMo), loose the warranty and are open for instability and sudden incompatibilities with crashes.
On the third custom ROM installation attempt I was stuck on a black screen after powering on (stuck on the bootloader!) and couldnt initiate flash for multiple times. I was shocked and very nervous. Thats when the stock ROM saved my ass and I am not willing the risk of playing around any more with non-firmware ROMs for Android GT.
Regarding the alternative screen lockers available - please do not suggest Screen Suite (the best of the worst) and things like No-Lock (to get rid of the original locker) as they all mess up once in a while (tested) with the default ROM settings and the original core locker.
PS
In my view the best thing we can and should do first of all is to COMPLAIN to SAMSUNG Tech Support and Software Developers (I did twice already).
If every one of us from theese GTab forums would do this they would definitely get faster with resolving issues.

[ROMs] Captivate Touch (no phone) v3.1 - Update 12/28 WORKING

******NEW THREAD*******
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2347220
If you want to take up this or a similar project on your own, I will provide you with instrucations on what to modify. HOWEVER, you must get permission first from each Rom Chef, as these are their works and we are simply modifying for our own use.
Captivate Touch:
GB via CM7 is working very well. Camera is functional and I am testing the GPS. See notes below. If you are going to install GAPPS, make sure you remove the setup wizard apk from the zip file.
I am running Launcher7 on mine so that my toddler can easily see her books and games on the launcher screen. Will post screens later.
Changelog:
3.1: CM7 based Touch. Working.
3.0: GB Fail, could not get camera working on any GB rom.
2.0: Fixed GPS, removed mms, added dialer back for secret code access.
1.1: Removed modem lib (broke GPS)
1.0: Removed no signal notification
I take no responsibility... yada yada yada. What you do to your phone is your business, don't blame me.
First off, these ROMs are not my creation they belong to the chefs that cooked them or the devs that built them. All I did was modify them to suit my needs. If you like these ROMs, please buy them a beer and support future development. They have endorsed this project and for that I thank them. The camera apk in the froyo version is GizmoDroid's modded camera as the stock and hacked camera from SGS Tools did not function properly.
The goal of this project was to a Captivate Rom completely devoid of any cell phone functions. Why? Well, my job required me to switch to another OS, but I had grown dependent on my Android apps. As such I have modified these ROMs to give us a "Touch-like" device, devoid of any cell phone functions, and with amazing battery life.
Yes, I know that you can just put the phone in Airplane mode, remove them sim card, disable the data network etc, but phone functions still remain and its a not a complete nor elegant experience.
What works:
Testing, but so far everything but the phone
What doesn't:
Some lock screens display (no service)
Install Instructions:
I have provided links to each ROM's original thread. Please follow the instructions there.
So here you go:

Yep, although Cognition uses Voodoo lagfix and I always play it safe by flashing back to stock before installing a new custom rom.
Cool!! Definitely trying this out!
I don't know if you can add it in but on some roms, ie cm7, there is the previous, play/pause, and next for the media controls on the lock screen which would be probably the 2nd best feature of the touch Rom other than the no phone part

I'm all for what you are trying to accomplish but I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around this, what does it matter if you still have the phone (that still has the phones functionality) because of your company unless it was a company phone, but if thats the case then why are you modding it to only work as a smaller tablet. This makes me assume that you were issued a company phone other than your cappy? I also assume 2 other things here, you still need it to work wifi and possibly still need a data signal or is this what you need gone al together. to remove the signal bar at the top look in the theme thread about modding the notification bar, I accidently did this one time, I would have to poke around but I manage I could do it again.
But for whatever reason you want to do this have you tried porting a galaxy tab rom to this by chance, is it even possible, I wouldn't know why it wouldn't be possible.

Yes, I had to purchase a non-android device for work and do not want to pay for multiple lines and data plans. The goal was to continue to use the many apps I purchased, improve battery life, and create a more complete expereince. Simply removing the SIM card leave the cell radio software components intact, giving you the emergency call option notification, the missing sim notification, etc. By removing all of the components associated with the phone (except the lost signal notification - sigh) the experience feels "complete" and intentional, rather than hacked together.
If you can figure out how to remove the notification bar that would be great. I am not a developer, coder etc, just a tinkerer who isn't afraid of bricking his phone. As for the Galazy Tab rom, I would not know where to begin.
The ultimate goal will be to port the ROMs from the Galaxy S WIFI 4 and 5, but in the meantime, I will settle for their native apps missing from the captivate.

I see where you are going with this. Two questions; Does removing all phone functions render wifi useless? Does doing this save significant battery life over airplane mode/no sim?
Thanks!

I have not tested battery life compared to airplane mode, but Standby on the Cognition variant seems to be 5-7 days.
Wifi, BT, and GPS all work perfectly.
For now as a "hack" to get the look your going for you could possibly edit the stat_sys_signal_null.png to a blank image maybe that will work for you, it will most likely be in SystemUI.apk in /system/app if I had time I would do it myself but issues at home will prevent me from playing with this tonight
EDIT: Sorry for some reason I thought you were on a 2.3 rom, Personally I would suggest you try this with DAGr8 symply galaxy, I just removed SystemUI.apk from it reboot and now have no notification bar at all, but everything seems to be functioniong correctly.
With your 2.2 ROM you will most likely find the null signal png in /framework/framework-res.apk in the res/drawable-hdpi may have v4 on there too.

I was going to suggest the same - simply replace the signal bar images with blank/100% transparent images.
After playing around with it today thats gonna be your best option. Yoi really dont want to remove your bar altogether this hinders your ability to mount to pc or to use debugger

AOKP - Requests for development (Th3Bill's rom)

Well guys we have a pretty good chance to include everything (...what is possible) we ever wanted on our Atrix...
in an other thread th3bill (the dev. behind AOKP milestone 6 port) opened there were alot of request for features on the next builds, th3bill offered to open a discusion which include all requests in one place.
** Th3bill, we love your work and your willing to do for others. your private time "wasted" on porting and developing is not ovious and we do appriciate it. keep on the excellent work and again a major thank, us - the users.
since nobody did it so far i'll start:
i whould like the next build to include:
1. call recording option.
2. video call option.
3. webtop interface?
4. google music.
5. led color control in order to customize notifications.
6. o.c kernel.
7. some other cpu governors.
8. google's android jellybean featuers? espacially build-in voice recognition.
things to fix (what i've noticed):
1. video cam - known problem.
2. browser issus (fc when changing ls and portrait).
3. edit custom brightness levels (fc).
4. can't change signal and wifi colors.
5. also battery bar won't show up.
6. wifi direct won't work.
7. wifi hot spot works and immidiatly stops(maybe it's just my device).
-By now your port is the best rom my atrix had so...big thanks !!!
-I know you working too hard already (DON'T FORGET TO HAVE FUN !!, i wrote all of the things i think can be added. with or without them it is still almost perfect.
guys it is your turn now...make some suggestions for improvement:
Hey Everyone!
I'm sure most of you know me by now. Those of you who do not, I am NOT the type of rom porter who gets upset by questions/requests/PMs. Just understand that I build 3 builds of MIUI (Photon, Atrix, Infuse), 2 builds of AOKP (Photon, Atrix), 2 builds of Paranoid Android (Photon, Atrix), as well as help Jokersax11 with various projects, including our Kitchen Sink. That being said, it might take me a little bit to respond...but I will.

Enhancements:
1) Call recording, I need to play around with this rom some more...see if it has the capability...maybe I can pull from MIUI...can't guarantee, though
2) That will be tough until Moto gives libs
3) Loki and I have talked at length about this...we're trying to figure out a way to do it, but it will take a hybrid kernel and a lot of work. Not that we won't TRY...
4) This will be in the next release
5) Have an app in mind that I can include? Beauty Aroma is that I can include almost anything
6) I am working with Jokersax11 on making some that are compatible with our base. I know that some are kinda compatible, but not all....
7) By governors, I am assuming you're talking about some form of setcpu?
8) I have the apps on my PC...well some of them.
With respect to fixes, 1 and 2...those won't be till Moto plays nice with me and gives me drivers for ICS.
3) I need a logcat on this one please
4 and 5) Not too sure about these ones. I'll try them with my phone if I get a chance. If you can logcat, that'd be great
6) I think this is an ICS thing. Don't know that any of them do Ad-hoc at the moment
7) You need to forget whatever network you are near if you're connected...and make sure that wifi is ON before beginning tether
Sorry if I am a downer on some of it, but I would rather be honest with everything I tell you all. I have much love for the Android Community

I personally use the car dock alot an the transitions between audio playing and incoming call tends to be troublesome. When calls answered the phone doesn't port it over the USB. Usually speaker/headset and have to redock in call for it to work... also DSP manager doesn't have effect over the USB audio out. Only reason I revert to original moto rom.

On paranoid android for the atrix when in tablet mode it won't allow me to make the recent apps the Sense htc style one, is there a fix for this?
Question/Report
Not sure if this is the right place to report issues. My luck, probably not. Here it goes..
I had your build 40. worked great!
updated to milestone 6 7b. worked better (yaay)
tried to update to milestone 6 revision. No wipe, same as previous, sent atrix into bootloop. tried few more times, same thing.
tried again with full wipe. Bootloop. tried again. bootloop. flashed 7b full wipe, works great again (yaay).
Just curious if you have any idea why my phone doesn't like the new one. saw in the rom thread a few others had same issue or similar, no answers there as of yet. i'm hesitant it try again unless you can think of something i could possibly be doing wrong somehow. Anything i can send or tell you that could help, let me know. Thanks
As for requests, i prefer Apex launcher over Nova. Maybe include it? it would be nice if i could uninstall Nova also
You Rock!
*So i tried installing again and it works now. not sure what the problem was*

hi,
not really worked...users didn't cooporate and besides cm 10 (JB) is already here and not bad, so this is closed!!
i wanna thank Th3Bill for his effort and wish you will continue develop for us.

Hwa is in the ROM under advanced.
Call recording isn't yet supported by kernel. Funny you posted this as joker and I are discussing how to fix now

Problems
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this. If not, i apologize.
I flashed your AOKP build 3 on my international atrix. The ROM doesn't recognize internal and external storage for me. When my phone boots it says that is safe to remove sd card. I used the two options EMMC and SD with or without build.prop tweaks. Also i flash this with FULL wipe (system, etc) The other thing that i cannot find are GApps. Can I use CM10 GApps for this rom ?
Thanks in advance.
So, are there options for an OCed kernel yet?
* Moved to development thread. *
I would really love to see an option to "Show only contacts with phone numbers" on Contact list settings...MIUI has this option and this is super usefull for me
MIUI SMS app is great too, but it doesn´t show smileys
Thanks
I have a good one! WebOS and Sense style multitasking (with long press home).

[ROM][P7320/P7320T][JB 4.1.2] Unofficial CyanogenMod 10 [2013-12-22] "FINALLY"
THIS ROM IS FOR GT-P7320 AND GT-P7320T ONLY! JUST LIKE nrvate's CM10 ROM FOR THE i957, THIS ROM COULD EAT YOUR INCOMPATIBLE DEVICE AS IT DOES NOT DO A DEVICE CHECK.
This is a Jellybean 4.1 / CM10 ROM for the Galaxy Tab 8.9 LTE aka the P7320 or the P7320T.
The hardware in this tablet is almost identical to the SAMSUNG i957, except for the data partition being hosted on mmcblk0p28 instead of mmcblk0p26. First I tried converting the other builds, e.g. nrvate's work on the P7320, which worked well. Alas, I have decided a fresh build would be interesting. This build will probably stay at CM10/JB4.1 for now as the p5att variant has disappeared from the msm8660 source for JB 4.2.
You will need a CWM recovery to flash this, e.g. this one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1569122

Install the ROM ZIP and GAPPS ZIP at the same time if you like. Also the first boot may appear to be hung but it will take a short while - don't panic due to the lack of boot animation!
Latest changes:
Touchscreen sensitivity increased + source updates from P7300/P7310
Battery/charging code updates from offical samsung ICS source
Custom additions:
Use the Adreno GPU for 2D rendering - greatly improves performance in the stock browser and launcher, and especially in landscape mode due to our screens being rotated 90 degress in software
smartassV2 governor - you can enable this in Settings -> Performance
USB charging and notification
Enable saving of blocked attachments (e.g. zip files) from the email app (from CM10.1)
Touchscreen sensitivity increased
What is working:
Screen
Speakers / Audio
Wifi
3g/4g
Bluetooth
Camera (front, back, stills mode only)
Tethering
USB charging and notification
What is not working:
Automatic brightness
Camera for video (video - wrong aspect ratio, changing resolution cases crash in app)
Vibration (works but is weak and only sends the start and finish signals)
Boot animation doesn't display 90% of the time
Charging bug while turned off, you may need to unplug the cable to turn back on
Wifi Direct
HDMI out + probably anything that uses the dock port except for USB and charging
+ Lots more that I don't know about yet

Trying the newest, seems fine. I got the xda app working, yay
I'm very anxious to see the status of this rom in January... Does it fly to the Moon, does it wash my laundry, will it blend, etc...

Just tried it out then and doesn't seem to be working. I might have a look and see what can be done.

I've tested merging the USB charging changes in and it seems like it will be possible, but I will need to make another build. Will look at doing that later in the week.
The good news is, however, while running the tablet off USB, even without the patch, it appears to do some sort of charging, as shown in the "Settings->Battery" screen. So it might be more that the notification of charging, and potentially the "force charging" (which might be required for some devices), is missing.
I've been busy trying to get CM10.1 (JB4.2) booting properly on this device. Currently get ADB starting up, no display working, so not sure about what else.
If anyone who has been working on android/cm ROM development would like to help out please let me know as it's very very new to me !
New version 20131214
Hi all,
New version up that shows USB charging status.
Also the previous change to use the adreno GPU in 2D mode didn't take any affect, I've fixed that and added some more GPU related tweaks.
You can download it here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B48JIYNc4wvsM1U2b0lCbmZ6S0E/edit?usp=sharing
I also have a new kernel for testing some touchscreen behaviour.
Here is the flashable zip:
cm-10-20131214-UNOFFICIAL-p7320.kernelupdate.zip (use File -> Download from Google drive)
It has some more "up to date" files from the Samsung ICS tree, but I'm not sure if they are having any effect.
If you want to quickly roll back to the original kernel for comparisons, here it is:
cm-10-20131214-UNOFFICIAL-p7320.kernel.zip (use File -> Download from Google drive)
I'll probably keep the updates in there but I'd like a second opinion to see if I've made any difference at all

Mail client blocking attachments
Will at least CM 10.1 be available which solves the attachment blocking issue of the CM 10's mail client?
Otherwise can CM.10.1's mail client ne embedded in the presente release?
THX & bye

Can you explain the issue, I haven't used the built in mail client myself. Is it only certain types of files?

I've merged this attachment unblocking feature in the next build.
Also... is anyone having trouble with charging? Sometimes my tab won't charge past about 60-70% overnight. A reboot or charging while turned completely off seems to fix it... if others are having problems with it I might look into it further.
New version, includes saving of blocked attachments (e.g. zip files) from the email app (from CM10.1). Also the init logo now displays, before the boot animation does. Still pot luck as to whether the boot animation will display.
