hardware wise we only support h263 and 264 right now. with next nightly build acc will probably be included. avi is just a container format - you cannot say what's in it. but we look forward to add more formats.

I personally don't use 720 or 1080p. I think its s waste of bandwidth for most cases. cinema like lcd projectors might be an exception. all below this resolutions can be played by software players anyways. hdtv works perfect for me for films and TV shows. and I am a damn TV show addict. tvu is one of my favorite sites.

well, enough of topic (:

Try turning off compatibility mode in spare parts, reboot and relaunch your app
[Vega Android Development] brunsbanjo:
got the same issue with moboplayer/built-in player, with mp4 (h264) video.

first seconds play, then only audio and player fc's
[Vega Android Development] bewA:
I tried this the other day when i first got my Vega and i was very impressed!!

The only let down was the performance but after all these are nightlies so that's fine.

I've gone back to the Corvus5 ROM (i know you can OC, but i'm not at the mo) for now and hopefully CM7 will very shortly match the performance!! :)

Tablet Tweaks are by far the best and I can't wait for Mad-Murdoch to start looking into that lock screen!! :D
[Vega Android Development] brunsbanjo:
next bug:

sometimes when i wake up the tablet the cpu frequency istn set correctly and left at ~200 mhz

and overclocking features built-in doesn't work properly unless i install setcpu and played around with that.
[Vega Android Development] glococo:
Hi, Awesome ROM.

How can I enable "TV like" shutdown animation when i press "go to sleep" button ? (home)

THanks in advance!
[Vega Android Development] ed.dark:
You can't yet
[Vega Android Development] NeatBee:
I can't find any wifi networks
[Vega Android Development] rebeldx:
turn wifi off and then back on ..... it happened 2 me the 1st time i installed, but its gr8 now :)
[Vega Android Development] chrishull85:
Flashed 61 and seems ok so far.

Issue i have is that market wont load just flashes up then closes am i missing something? also i cannot for the life of me get setcpu to work it just force closes on me no matter what rom im using.
[Vega Android Development] ed.dark:
Add a google account and wifi access then open the market.
[Vega Android Development] henky92:
After I flashed this, it told me to press on the android in the setup wizard. However, when i pressed the android it lit up, but nothing happened. After a reboot it asked me what language i wanted to use, after selecting english i got the same screen asking me what language I wanted, and again and again. I properly the cleaned cache etc.

What's wrong here? Thanks
[Vega Android Development] chrishull85:
Hi tried this one now and cant add a google account! are there some g apps to be installed on top of the rom?
[Vega Android Development] 71baker:
Seriously , it is in the first post!
[Vega Android Development] chrishull85:
Got it, really sorry i totally missed that - teach me to read, read and read again b4 posting!
[Vega Android Development] youlle:
Been using this ROM for about a fortnight now, and have been updating through the nightlies.

I have noticed that i am unable to purchase applications from the android marketplace on my Vega is this a known problem with the nightlies. I have searched this forum, and the Cyanogenmod issue tracker but can not find it reported anywhere.

the market place shows a screen saying "com.android.vending has stopped unexpectedly" and my only option is to force close the market place.

another issue which has only occured in the vega-full-63 nightly is that it says build ID should be GJ***, but it still shows as GRI40 in all applications that pull the build ID, and in the code submit it still shows Build ID as GRI40 but the Build Device ID has been updated.
[Vega Android Development] just_nos:
Yeah they skipped 62 ... 63 is up i will update it later and i will check if its beter!
[Vega Android Development] scanno:
I just upgraded to 63 and i have the GRJ22 buildnumber. Also androidversion has been updated to 2.3.4... I guess you had a bad flash or a messed up download. Try downloading and/or flashing nightly again.
[Vega Android Development] johnw230873:
And then there was 64 :)
[Vega Android Development] fun_:
Settings -> CyanogenMod settings -> Performance -> CPU settings doesn't work on nightly, right?

I made fix & test boot.img: http://androtab.info/files/vega/cm7/cpufreq/boot.img

it's basically same as nightly #64, just add some lines to /init.rc. no need to change wifi module in system.img.

EDIT: URI is changed

EDIT2: merged! this will be included in next nightly
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
was gone some days - latest nightly got ****loads of changes - 2.3.4, kernel, init stuff and more... not sure if there are still issues, and if so, which... not sure about lag, either

@fun_: can you also attach your wifi driver, so i dont end up without teh internetz flashing that kernel? (:

edit: no new kernel yet - just checked logs and was wrong there - anyways, many changes (:
[Vega Android Development] rebeldx:
dunno if its just me but am on newest nightly (64) and when i connect my vega via usb i no longer get the usb debugging notification sign in my status bar ....... also the wifi notification icon shows as havin no signal ...... when i hav full signal (wifi analyzer, plus sat in same room as wireless n router lol)

other than those very minor things (that may just b on mine) i've not found anything wrong with this rom so far ........ infact i love it :)
[Vega Android Development] DiamondGar:
i would definately make sure you have done a full nandroid and titanium backup before flashing latest nightly 63 incase a wipe is needed. I had some problems, ie market not working after updating and had wipe and reflash and reflash gapps.

I guess there was a lot of changes to code since last nightly.

Seems to be working fine now, after a little time getting wifi to connect, although i havent had much chance to test it as i had to go to work :(
[Vega Android Development] serialkillazzs:
changelog

could we have the changelogs updated no idea what is fixed in these nightlies or what is left to fix.

would love proper app2sd fix tho!

keep up the good work
[Vega Android Development] jps1974:
link to changelog is in OP

@mad-murdock: OP still says bluetooth not working which is totally not true ;)
[Vega Android Development] fun_:
"test boot.img" is not my private image. ;)

I'll make some changes for advent vega tree & upload into review...
[Vega Android Development] nickwarn:
This seams to be tablet problem, because i have it on my POV Mobii and on my Folio but not on my Nexus S. maybe some problem with gapps. Any ways it needs looking in to.
[Vega Android Development] Lennyuk:
These new nightlies are now generated automatically on the CM tree like any other official CM device, the change log is the same for all devices so you won't get an updated one in the OP any more.

Just generally accept the higher the number the better it will be, it is not often a bug is introduced.
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
updated the first post and modified all outdated information - its much cleaner now.

hmm, okay, then i gotta test it without wifi driver and just temp-flash it. too bad, we cannot access fastboot all the time (: will share results later...

languages are back

i just made some patches to add back all languages. i removed cmwallpapers for this. if you want it, its on first post - you can install it as a normal app then.

i got a nice pm from a russian guy, who reminded me that i forgot to care about re-adding languages again like promised when i stripped them for hardware decoding. should be in next nightly.

edit: i also tested the screen off animation, but still had some troubles with it...
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
try to add this line to /system/build.prop:

ro.telephony.default_network=0

if it fixes that issue, will be included in future nightly builds - i cannot try for market only accepts CC's
[Vega Android Development] rvdgeer:
I believe market fc's directly after clicking 'buy', so no need for a creditcard to experience the bug fitst hand...

haven't tried your fix yet
[Vega Android Development] Bennji:
Murdock,

Third clean install and guess what, flash is all working.

This time I installed flash direct from the market rather than from titanium.

Loving this, thanks for all your hard work.
[Vega Android Development] fun_:
sorry for confusion! boot.img can be flashed by

# erase_image boot
# flash_image boot boot.img

and of course we need fastboot/nvflash if it doesn't work(boot) ;)

I uploaded this fix: http://review.cyanogenmod.com/5057

please review it :)
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
The murdock is not surprised. but the Murdock is well amused!

Morsed by hitting a plastic pipe with my Desire HD. Excuse typos.
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
I wasn't confused. just if you send a kernel, you also have to give away the wifi module, since else wifi is broken. at least in most cases.

thanks for your patch! too bad all people who can merge are very busy currently. I also wait for merge for some stuff. will bug them on irc later...

[Vega Android Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Hannibal to Murdock :p

Can I bug you for a free flight to 3G internal modem on Viewpad 10s? :rolleyes:

A-Team flight CM7 has still vacant seats due to missing 3G internal modem support.
[Vega Android Development] zsoft:
plz add russian languages
[Vega Android Development] just_nos:
O god #65 is up with stable cm7.0.3

Need to download it tonight and test it . Just felt in love with my pov again after #64 im only waiting for avi divx etc containers .

Oh and mobo plays it but not great.

Also 1080p that whas supported does not alwayd run smooth at al just wait for the fixes
[Vega Android Development] stojanos:
This did not fix the google market app FC when buying the app. Still the same NullPointer exception. Test was done with nightly #65 and latest gapps from 3rd of May.
[Vega Android Development] fun_:
at this time I'm talking about CM7 nightly. it's not my private image.

only init.rc is changed (same as uploaded on review.cm). no need to change wifi module.

(my private image has no problem in cpufreq settings because that part is included in my init.rc which is based on original system/core/rootdir/init.rc)
[Vega Android Development] just_nos:
mad-murdock do u think there is a chance u can add dutch language ? or is this already included ? ( can't check it right now )
[Vega Android Development] rvdgeer:
Market buying seems to work fine with me now, on #65 with experimental gapps (see rom manager).

Cleaned out cache and market data before flashing...

Dutch language is in the list, so should work...

However, I prefer English myself...

;)
[Vega Android Development] fun_:
new test image: http://androtab.info/files/vega/cm7/reboot-recovery/cyanogen_vega-ota-eng.fun.zip

"reboot recovery" via power dialog, terminal, and adb should work.

I don't test yet (will do soon) but publish for anyone who want to test :)

I'll upload this fix on review.cm after verification.

EDIT: I found mistake. test image is removed temporary.

EDIT2: uploaded again. tested & worked well
[Vega Android Development] Dyonas:
Is there any way to disable the fullscreen toggle that pops up? I've noticed that when playing a game it can pop on and off the notification area and each time it does that it causes a brief but very noticeable stutter. It feels almost as if it's clogging up the CPU just by being unsure if it should be there or not and flickering on then off and then on again etc.
[Vega Android Development] 318vert:
Just updated to latest ROM version using Rom Manager and now all Google apps do not open...
[Vega Android Development] stojanos:
It did not work for me. I have wiped all data before installing #65 and latest gapps. When you say "experimental gapps" do you mean gapps-gb-20110503-signed.zip?

I will try again tonight with running the Advent's 1.09 ROM install first which will definitely wipe everything before applying latest CWM, nightly and experimental gapps.

Did anyone try video/voice call with latest talk from gapps. It does show video icon now but when you click it tread crashes (not the whole app). It looks like this is something to do with camera hardware. Chat is still working fine.

Another bug is camera recording. I can't record using camera. It simple freezes. I have also tried to use Tango and similar issue (no video sent). Maybe the camera driver is still not working properly.
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
I uploaded the patches two days ago - just someone of the Gods of cyanogenmod must merge them...

Morsed by hitting a plastic pipe with my Desire HD. Excuse typos.
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
did you check the file again? once you install a new nightly, that file gets generated again.

please double check and confirm it didn't fix that issue, since on nook, that change did solve the exact same issue (triggered by no gsm)

I already uploaded the patch for it, but its not merged yet

Morsed by hitting a plastic pipe with my Desire HD. Excuse typos.
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
I also noticed that... if I wouldn't suck that hard (at least currently), this issue would be solved and tablet tweaks 2 done already... but I suck... totally... and I even know how to fix the performance peak...

disabling full screen and reboot does eliminate all connected lag issues. any lag left is genuine

Morsed by hitting a plastic pipe with my Desire HD. Excuse typos.
[Vega Android Development] fun_:
are you talking about video(not photo) recording? I'll make fix and test image next. (after "reboot recovery" work)
[Vega Android Development] Bennji:
Really pleased you've picked this up, the last CM7 I had kept getting stuck at booting screen.

Unfortunately I've not managed to get very far with this, the keyboard is unuseable, the whole screen flashes with each key press and sometimes it registers, sometimes it doesn't, sometimes it registers with the wrong letter.

I've installed twice and rebooted a few times but still no joy.
[Vega Android Development] nickwarn:
You need to go to CM settings and just mowe statusbar buttons to other side, disabale quick notification then it works and you can enable quick not. button again and move the buttons where ever you want. I dont know why this happens but its easily fixed. No need to start downloading other keyboards and reflashing and stuff.

Good luck

this update seems to be a little smoother on wake up not much lag at all. Exellent
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
toggle statusbar bottom and top again -> its gone...

its a known bug, but i push bug squishing after i implemented the last features.... which might be somewhere this night...

edit: too slow - but there are several issues which all result to the same: default values... will be solved soon - but first i wanna finish the fullscreen override - see the main thread about this 8:
[Vega Android Development] Bennji:
Perfect, thanks chief.

Loving this!
[Vega Android Development] Dyonas:
I don't know much about the CM7 bug since I rarely use WiFi on my phone and tend to stick to Sense builds but does this existing / known bug cause WiFi to fail to notice access points? I'm sitting here about two or three metres from my router, typing this on my laptop connected to it but it repeatedly shows as "Not in range" under the WiFi settings for the Vega. If I turn WiFi off then back on it had previously made it see the router then connect to it but after doing it five times a few minutes ago it still won't see the router as in range, or at all actually.
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
new build - new features...
[Vega Android Development] add.thebad:
wow cheers man
[Vega Android Development] Dyonas:
You're a machine, murdock! :D

Side note to mention that rebooting the Vega made WiFi work again, I'm going to keep an eye on it just in case it happens again.
[Vega Android Development] Bennji:
Is there a problem with flash,I can't seem to get videos working, tried iplayer, itv player and you tube.

All have no sound and video keeps stopping and starting and jumping.

I'm on last nights version, not installed the new one yet.
[Vega Android Development] Dyonas:
I haven't tried on the currently posted version but I can tell you I had no problems with video via Flash on the previous build. I was watching an hour long video on YouTube inside a browser. I never watched all of it but more than enough to say it was working as were other Flash videos and content I saw.
[Vega Android Development] nickwarn:
Murdock, you brought this tab to life again. Finally we have some action
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
action is soon over (: we are close to cm merge. then this project is done..

[Vega Android Development] nickwarn:
Well, happines never lasts. I guess thats why i keep several devices theres always something happening somewhere.
[Vega Android Development] add.thebad:
Yeah im bored with what happening on my defy, mainly nothing due to bootloader but liking the Vega builds coming out

Hope we can get an official cm7 after merge that would make the Vega awesum!!
[Vega Android Development] HunteronX:
Exactly.

Can't wait for the latest build! :)
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
updated first post - new build - feature complete....
[Vega Android Development] HunteronX:
Thanks - I'll be testing it very soon. :)
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
well, this is more or less official. i am a "official" cm dev, the sources used are official cm sources with no mods, tweaks or anything else, each rom is compiled the same way a nightly would be compiled. noticed the mod version? no RC no KANG note?

but yes, i am looking forward to cm7 merge, too - and the end of this effort.... this were really hard one and a half weeks, but i guess, it was worth it (:
[Vega Android Development] HunteronX:
Thanks for all of your hard work! :)

EDIT: I'll wait until the first bug-fixing release is out, before I report any issues.
[Vega Android Development] stojanos:
Yes, I am talking about video recording. Sorry for confusion.
[Vega Android Development] 318vert:
OK sorted it now i installed new GAPPS.

I have another question... What is the remove phone zip supposed to do? i just installed in but i can still open phone appps on my tablet and i still have the ringer volume when using volume keys an di have the no singal icon in my status bar?

How can i remove all phone apps and stop phone icons and volume working?
[Vega Android Development] 318vert:
Also im getting the lag again ever few second slike somthing is happening.

Update using smartbench 2011 the performance is 4000+ which is better that prev ROMS but the games index is really poor i got 1432 and its the graphics tests that lag like hell when ran...

Anyone else getting this?
[Vega Android Development] scanno:
The lag that you get every few seconds is most likely caused by the implenentation of the fullscreen handling. You can check this by running adb logcat and check if you have lag around the time you see something like CMStatusbarView in the logcat. This is a known problem and mad-murdock said he knows how to fix this.

The other things that might cause lag are background tasks that sync (with me that are the weather widgets that cause lag). If you disable the widgets and disable the fullscreen override, i guess you will have almost no more lag.
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
hush... it was secret...

but to be honest, there is still something wrong. what you write is 100% correct like usual, but on other devices this doesn't cause lag.

on Vega everything running in background causes lag. on other devices it doesn't. that combined with the fact Vega got two processors tells me, we miss something here. but I got no idea what's the cause. corvus rom uses buzz kernel without mods - so its not (only) kernel related... I also doubt the file system is involved (current file system isn't working well with multi processor, but nothing we can do there). simply because lag also happens without accessing nand... scheduler should also be okay - even though testing various scheduleres / scheduler options couldn't hurt...

this is not meant as an excuse for non-optimal full screen handling btw...

If i can help with testing things, then let me know... Right now i have to celebrate the start of my 4th decade....:o

Just a note if u play a long flash vid every 2 second syou get a lag and it stutters twice and then plays for 2 seconds and does it again.
[Vega Android Development] tomolewis:
Is the phone removal working for other people because I'm still getting the signal meter on the bar?

thanks
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
phone removal just deletes the phone.apk file and the phone service - which eats battery. it leaves the signal meter (thats not an app) and also the contacts which might be considered phone itself. its not - the contact+dialer just call the phone app, which is what you see when calling someone (or getting called) on an android phone.

you can test all this either with a (free) sip account to call yourself on or with FakeCallMe which "emulates" an incomming call (intended for "oh my boss - ****, gotta go, company on fire" excuses)
[Vega Android Development] mad-murdock:
full language support back in next nightly - patches got merged...
[Vega Android Development] fun_:
try this one: http://androtab.info/files/vega/cm7/hwmediarecorder/cyanogen_vega-ota-eng.fun.zip

camera app doesn't respond several seconds after stop recording. you should wait thumbnail on upper right corner is updated.

preview area will not be updated after stop recording ;)
[Vega Android Development] Dyonas:
There's an issue that's caused by using the phone removal zip. Status inside "About Phone" will force close if you've used it. It's a minor issue but I haven't seen it mentioned before.

With regards to the full screen toggle I don't think it's fair to say that you suck. You and other devs do stuff a lot of us would never be able to do so at worst I'd say you haven't nailed this one issue yet. In the meantime is there a way to disable the toggle? I thought about asking for removing it until a fix is around but that would make testing it harder for you.

Here's my very rough thought based purely on something that happened to me with a graphics tablet on my computers at home. There was one function on the tablet that would send the CPU of one core in a dual-core CPU to 100% while the other had normal use. It took a year for them to nail it down and it ended up being that a driver was switching between userspace and system too often. As I said it's totally unrelated but the CPU spike is similar, I don't know if Android operates in a similar way but at worst you can laugh and say "no, nothing like that".
[Vega Android Development] scanno:
I think these idea's are a good thing. That way you can cross things out. Also some thing to consider is the multi-core... Perhaps the scheduler switches one of the cores on and off very often. That would create lag also. Thought i saw that in logcat once that one core was shutdown.
[Vega Android Development] chrishull85:
66 seems flawless to me so far good work :)
[Vega Android Development] stojanos:
This is better. Video recording is now working. Not perfect, as you already mentioned (plus sometimes crashes, color effects are not working) but usable. Will this be checked out to CM7?
[Vega Android Development] fun_:
