whoaaaa so fast V3 after not logging in for some time !! Just flashed to Icarus and now playing around with it .. Tried using the same settings for OC/UV as Hermes but keeps shutting down. So just running it without OC/UV for now. First thing to notice was the new boot screen !!! woots looks awesome !! Next was after booting up the new icons on the top (battery/wifi/data) looks great !!! Ok .. going to go fiddle with it more especially trying to load HD videos from Youtube. Keep up the great work team overcome

This post from Alterbridge explains alot about OC/UV on Icarus QUOTE So, turns out I lied a little bit yesterday (not intentionally, I just forgot ) So the stock voltage levels on hermes kernel and icarus kernel ARE different, for some steps. In particular, the 1ghz and above ones. Judging by the number of problems people are having with overclocking to even 1.2ghz, i think next release I will push the volts back up to where they were. Essentially, everyone is UV’ing right off the bat compared to the previous kernel…so for the time being, here is what they look like THEN vs NOW vs FUTURE:
Speed | HERMES | ICARUS | ‘J’ Release 1.6ghz | ———– | 1500mV | 1500mV 1.5ghz | ———– | 1500mV | 1500mV 1.4ghz | 1500mV | 1450mV | 1500mV 1.3ghz | ———– | 1350mV | 1450mV 1.2ghz | 1450mV | 1350mV | 1450mV 1.0ghz | 1350mV | 1325mV | 1350mV
So basically, the 1.0ghz step is undervolted, at STOCK, by -25mV. So if you used to be able to -25mV at 1ghz, you won’t be able to do any now because its already built in to the kernel source. Likewise at 1.2ghz, although the change gets more drastic here. If you used to be able to uv -100mV in Hermes, you won’t be able to UV at all in Icarus. If you were only able to uv -50mV in Hermes, you probably won’t be able to even RUN at 1.2ghz on Icarus. The same goes on for the upper levels.
We have a testing team of around 8-9 people from all over the world and none experienced any major issues with the reduction in stock voltages, however seeing the responses from the general user population I see the error in my decision to reduce voltages. As such, as you can see in the ‘J’ Release column, I will be returning voltage levels back to their pre-Icarus state. After all, you can always UV back down to where they were in Icarus if its working well for you now, but you don’t have an option for OVERvolting if you really want to get up to 1.2-1.4ghz range.
One last thing, before anyone asks, I will not increase the volts to above 1500mV…that is just dangerous and has a very high likelihood of destroying the Tab

After being on Icarus over the weekend I noticed that the battery tends to drain faster the first 20-30% and slows down after that compared to Hermes .. still managed to get 12-14 hours without a sweat though
BTW is it just me or is the data icon just shows H and it changes from white to blue to indicate data transfer ? I miss the icon on Hermes where it shows two arrows indicating data transfer instead
Overall it's been rock stable OC/UV till 1.2Ghz .. haven't tried pushing further .. YET
BTW both Hermes and Icarus were/are on a clean install/wiped

QUOTE(epul @ Jul 12 2011, 02:34 PM) \ care to elaborate about the usage of yr tab if put pn standby mode sure can last for days  you can roughly see the usage based on the graph .. mostly used to sms/whatsapp/browse/wordwithfriends/facebook/twitter/foursquare/cardiotrainer/calls .. things i would normally do in a day .. nothing major like gps navigation/extended gaming/movie watching .. i've gotten more than 48 hours before on standby This post has been edited by yolk: Jul 12 2011, 02:56 PM

QUOTE(epul @ Jul 13 2011, 08:32 AM) did try for few times after bootup, scan very slow. not just my tab, my wife tab also the same problem try booting without the SD card ? didn't notice if it's slow on mine or not  Added on July 13, 2011, 11:23 amQUOTE(kmrdeva @ Jul 13 2011, 10:46 AM) Icarus is working fine for me, no issues at all that I can notice. I don't UV or OC since battery life is good enough for me. Don't use my Tab as a phone though since my Maxis broadband sim is in it. I've even set my Tab to 3G only and I've not had any issues.. Not sure why so many here and at xda-dev are encountering problems, I upgraded via CWM (non-wipe) from Hermes, wiped cache, dalvik cache and fixed permissions before my first boot. the only issue i have with Icarus now is the 3G/H data icon; prefer the Hermes one and some popup boxes like multiple choice etc doesn't appear properly .. some options are not visible .. will need to do screen capture to show what I mean .. but I run on 182 pixels . so that might be a reason This post has been edited by yolk: Jul 13 2011, 11:23 AM

QUOTE(kel82 @ Jul 14 2011, 03:41 AM) Hi guys newbie here. Got my tab p1000 last month. I have successfully upgrade to Gingerbread yest via KIES. I downloaded some apk files into my internal Sd memory under dwld and tried installing games such as Nova,Raging thunder 2 n even new android market app called Applanet. Problem is the apps will not work or dwld files from my wifi. Other apps dwld frm android market works fine. FYI i didnt insert any Sim or microsd card yet. Could ths be the problem or weak wifi link? Many thanks. i think its forum policy to not discuss or encourage warez .. so you're out of luck getting help on your issues

QUOTE(dvng @ Jul 18 2011, 08:21 AM) I was actually using oc kernel 3.3 & it was boot looping nonstop. I restock & reinstall couple of times but still the same. I have now switched back to Dip7 rom & kernel. Mind you DiP7 came UV & highly unstable. Seems like gingerbread doesnt like to be uv too much. I am now running non-uv,will check its stabilty today. how much did you UV ? I tried -75 below 600Mhz and so far haven't had much issues ..

QUOTE(dvng @ Jul 18 2011, 10:11 AM) The DIP7 comes with at least 100mV on all range and it is not stable. I couldn't mount Overcome kernel on DIP7 Rom so i don't know know what works on this combination.
any reason you're using the DIP7 instead of overcome ?

QUOTE(dvng @ Jul 19 2011, 09:14 PM) have you tried resetting the voltage (no uv), then overclock and see whether it keeps restarting..i suspect uv the GB is not very kind and causes FC and restarting of the TAB. Running Jupiter and OC to 1.3 Ghz .. UV -75Mv for 800Mhz and below .. so far it's been good
