If you appreciate my work and would like to support me with a small donation you can click on button.
If every happy user of this rom would just donate something I could invest more time in all these Android projects.

Issues

* If your device has only a front camera you won't have a camera launcher icon, but you can install this app

Instructions

* Grab TWRP recovery from this thread, unzip it and put uImage_recovery in the root of the external MicroSD card.
* Put rom (cm-10.1-$DATE-UNOFFICIAL-elf2.zip) and gapps (gapps-jb-$DATE-signed-ubifs.zip) files inside internal or external sdcard.
* Turn on the tablet keeping pressed VOL- and POWER untill you see the green droid.
* If this is your first install flash this file that will format /system, /data and /cache partitions.
* If you wanna wipe internal memory content you can flash this file.
* NEVER flash this two "wiping" zips file posted above if you're using an EXT4 partitioned device, in this case just do a "Factory reset" from TWRP.
* Flash rom (cm-10.1-$DATE-UNOFFICIAL-elf2.zip), gapps (gapps-jb-$DATE-signed-ubifs.zip) and, the required compatibility zip (and the eventual "MultiUser zip" if you're using a "MU" comp zip).
* Now select "Reboot system".
* Enjoy CyanogenMod 10.1!

FAQs

* If you wanna use a USB bluetooth device flash this zip after each rom update (flash it after the comp zip, practically as last file). It supports only CSR devices, they can be identified typing "lsusb" from an app like "terminal emulator": the supported device will be present with an entry like "Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0a12:0001" ("0a12:0001" is the supported VID:pID). Do not boot with the bluetooth plugged in; plug it once you booted to android.
* If you don't like Nexus 7 fingerprint and wanna use SGS-II instead flash this zip. Remember that changing fingerprint may screw Play Store, if it happens you'll have to perform a "wipe data / factory reset".
* WiFi now can stay enabled with display turned off. Note that if WiFi is enabled the tablet won't enter deep sleep so if you're more interestead in battery life instead of an always on WiFi change policy (on "Advanced" WiFi settings) from "Always" to "Never".
* Internal memory is mounted at /storage/sdcard0, external sdcard is mounted at /storage/sdcard1. If you wanna swap them (and make primary your real microsd) just flash this file after flashing rom's zip (you have to do it everytime you flash a new version of the rom and it is incompatible with multi user)
* If you wanna format your internal memory (it's corrupted, filled of crap, etc.) just flash this file from CWM / TWRP.
* It's better if you don't change governor because the included "ondemand" has been customized to support "boostpulse" feature of jelly bean power hal. You can control min/max cpu frequency with display on/off editing these entries in /system/build.prop file (they're listed with their default value): "ro.sys.min_cpu_on=408000", "ro.sys.max_cpu_on=1200000", "ro.sys.min_cpu_off=96000", "ro.sys.max_cpu_off=1008000".

2013-02-24

* "Reverted libraries" zip has been updated, be sure to fetch it again if you were having troubles playint streamed contents

2013-02-17

*** If you're having problems with some videos flash this zip (I'm doing some tests with newer video libraries, but seems no too stable right now) ***

* Support for both EXT4/UBIFS partitions (only Fire running stock 4.2 and Elf/Aurora with comp zip 2.0 are using EXT4 right now)

* Devices running alsa (everyone but Hero, Fire and Aurora/Elf with MultiUser kernel) can disable alsa standby by editing "snd.card.alsa.standby=1" to "snd.card.alsa.standby=0". This will fix latest Skype (and possibly other chat apps) issues, but may lead to some "pops" when the device enter/exit suspend.

Rob you probably won't be able to boot it because you have problems with that comp zip.

But i'm trying to understand... why with the last comp zip u made as legacy I can boot it but only to 1.2 ghz? sometimes cpu stucks on 408 and it work really bad, and your latest comp zips can reach 1.32 ghz, aren't it? But with latest stock rom on ainol forums I can reach 1.32 ghz with no problems and it work really smooth, but I really like your roms, so I thought that the fix could be in their boot.img, could you try to see this?

First of all thank you for your work!

Should this work with Ramos W22PRO compatibility zip from CM10? Also a user found a fully working TWRP Recovery for this tabet.

This is amazing. We are getting 4.2 earlier than some nexus devices.

@CT will you still update your CM10? Or just focus on CM10.1?

I will stay with CM10, because for now i need my tab as i daily driver.
Anyway thanks for your great work!

Is it possible to have a version without multi user, which might get around some of the problems above

it wouldn't change the math, the multiuser stuff is hardcoded.

If someone with, for example, a SGS3 tries CM10.1 and tells me if microsd works there

it's an hack, that's why i don't suggest you to move to 4.2 (despite the thing that i really don't like the way google has changed things this time)

UART bluetooth is the integrated, I think btusb won't ever work, it's changed dramatically the bluetooth stack
