Several of us have commented on this but it is sporadic and sometimes it works fine. This thread is huge, but you might want to browse the bug tracker (see link on first post) to get an idea of what has already been reported.

usb freeze

I just installed GB RC1 coming from 5.1.1 everything works perfect i love this new ROM. The only thing is when i connect to my PC with the USB i can transfer files fine but when i want to disconnect the tablet freezes after a eject the connection. I have to restart the gtab for it to start up again.

Anybody help what do you think.
[G Tablet Android Development] schettj:
Are you overclocked/on pershoot's kernel?

If so, drop down to 1Ghz before you use USB disk mode. Should keep it from freezing up.
[G Tablet Android Development] Dannyyy:
No not overclocked. I even installed pershoot's new kernel thinking that may fix it but no still the same.
[G Tablet Android Development] schettj:
Apparently just yank the plug, dont "eject", to keep it from hanging might work. I use cifsmanager and the cifs module for the kernel to just mount a share and copy stuff. Or dropbox.

When you dual post in threads and find an answer it is good etiquette to post the answer in your other thread.

For those interested:

The problem that Dannyyy was experiencing has to do with Pershoot's kernel oc logic (per Pershoot) regardless of whether or not you are actually oc'd. He is currently working on a fix.

Anyone have issues searching the market? I did the market hack and now when I click the search icon, or hit menu, search, nothing happens. Anyone experience this? CB edition, pershoots of kernel
[G Tablet Android Development] -BoneZ-:
If you're having problems with the market, sometimes it helps to do the hack more than once. I've also noticed a problem when you first start the market after the hack, that it's not connecting to the internet through Wifi. So, turning off Wifi and then logging back into Wifi makes the market work again as well.
[G Tablet Android Development] -BoneZ-:
Just wanted to post my boot time for those having boot troubles. I downloaded a timer/chronograph from the market onto my phone and timed the boot-up of my G-tab:

34 seconds!.

I've never once used nvFlash and I've flashed most every ROM here more than once. I've only used CWM .08 for everything I've done so far. I don't know if that has anything to do with it or not, but it is mind-boggling that some people are having 6-8 minute boot times and then there are those of us that have 30-second boot times.

I'm wondering, are those that are having long boot times have alot of movies/music on the external SD card? There's gotta be some easily fixable reason why some of you are having these long boot times.
[G Tablet Android Development] wd5gnr:
If you are having < 1 minute boots do you have DDMS where you can watch the machine boot up? On mine, the issue is that package manager on every boot unpacks native libs from EVERY APK on the system. And yeah I have a lot of stuff installed.

So I'd be curious if you attach DDMS to the phone (USB hooked up) as soon as the flashing Vegan logo come up (or whatever you've replaced it with) if you see packagemanager unpacking your APKs or not?
[G Tablet Android Development] Dannyyy:
I tried to Yank the USB and not eject did not work. Eject first did not work either.

I did not know if this was a kernel problem or a rom proplem but posting to pershoot's kernel confirm that he knows about it and that he is working on correcting it.

I will be using dropbox to transfer until the new kernel is out, thank you for your help.

Amazon has Fancy widgets free today. When I installed it -- and it could be a coincidence -- VTL launcher quit responding to long presses on the desktop (and as far as I know that means I could not delete the widget!). So I uinstalled widgets. Rebooted numerous times (6 minutes at a time -- ugh). No dice.

So finally I backed up my VTL backups and made new ones. Then I reset the VTL settings. Long press came back. If I restore the most recent backup, long press goes away. If I restore my previous backup, all is fine.

@gojimi: if you want the "bad" xml file from my backups, let me know.

I don't know if this was just a coincidence or if it was fancy widgets. I might try reinstalling later but I'm out of time this morning.
[G Tablet Android Development] madiom:
I use fancy widgets from the market and don't have that issue. It could be just the Amazon version. I did experience the exact same thing with the widgets for the Touchdown exchange program on TNT lite. I changed to Launcher Pro and the problem went away. I wonder if LP would make any difference for you.
[G Tablet Android Development] pershoot:
this does not appear to be a kernel related issue, as posted in the other thread.
[G Tablet Android Development] wd5gnr:
I have the paid version of launcher pro. But I'm not really all that concerned about this and I like the new launcher. Update: Installed again and all was okay. Must have been a coincidence. Uninstalled the widgets however because I was not overly impressed.
[G Tablet Android Development] manikin13:
I thought the regular version of fancy widget (free in market) worked a lot better. the amazon one leaves lot to be desired. and seems to really work poorly on the tab. maybe because of GB.

Over the Froyo Vegan, my Location now works with wifi and the launcher is better. It is also more stable and my wifi doesn't get disabled randomly.

[G Tablet Android Development] Fredplex:
...my tablet takes just over 3 mins to get to the lock screen. reviewing the logs captured via DDMS I see that 2.5 of those mins are spent unpacking native libs for all APKs on the system:

during these 2.5 mins the tablet is displaying the VeganTAB splash screen.

I've been on this rom for the few weeks and loving it, but I tried a new kernel last night and ended up having to do a restore, but my restore won't boot, it gets hung up on the splash screen that says g tablet developers... I tried wiping before restoring too....
[G Tablet Android Development] fordmanck:
I had the same issue the other day. You need to mount system in recovery and then format system. After that do your standard wipes and flash the rom. I have no idea what killed it but again, mine did the same thing the other day.
[G Tablet Android Development] jyams:
I originally had 4-5 minute boot time after first flashing this when it first came out. Within several days something happened that caused me to have to reflash this ROM (Seems like I forgot to flash the OC kernel and when I went back to CWM and did so, I got bootloops that I could not cure without reflashing the ROM). Reflash was smooth. Did a full wipe, etc, and also did OC kernel at the same time. Since reflashing the ROM and OC kernel my boot times are almost exactly 65 seconds every day, every reboot. I've got it loaded up with apps, running latest version of the OC kernel and VTL Launcher. The only thing I can think of that is different is that I was running Launcher Pro originally but have now gone totally with VTL Launcher. I also modified the SystemUI and Framework for the Honeycomb status bar icons (which work great)!

If you have the time and patience you might try reflashing the ROM and avoid Launcher Pro, using the latest OC kernel. I really believe that's what took care of my lengthy boot-up problem.

Using Smart GPS (sirf 3 generic) with gps bluetooth provider (from the market)

No issues
[G Tablet Android Development] wd5gnr:
In frustration, I did the following:

Did a full set of backups.

Did a factory reset wipe.

Reinstalled RC1

Cancelled the setup so that nothing would get loaded through resync.

Installed a few APKs I had on the SDCard. Nothing too strange. A music player, a video player, Amazon App Store, etc. Perhaps 1/2 dozen.

I rebooted while watching with DDMS.

The result was a fast boot (of course, there is nothing to load) but it was in fact doing the unpacking native libraries thing. So when I got back to a large number of apps I will be back at 6 minute boot up.

I am going to do it over again but this time, install only a single APK and see if it decides to unpack the native libs on boot. I'm betting it will. I do not think this is the result of something I am installing. However, it is clearly only doing this for the non-preinstalled apps (I think it could be due to the split Dalvik cache, but I can't prove it nor fix it).

Looking at the logs I had installed:

Amazon vending.

Grooveshark (the old one not the new one)

Rockplayer (Tegra-2 version)

Screen grabber

Touchscreen calibrate

No reason for those, just what I happened to have in APK form on /sdcard

A few interesting errors early in the boot process:

Zygote reports setreuid failed errno 30.

[errno 30 is read only file system -- that seems like a clue. Is something being mounted ro when it should be mounted rw and then remounted ro later???]

Zygote reports Class not found for preloading: android.widget.TExtView$SelectionModifierCursorController$1

BatteryService says usbOnlinePath not found and batteryHealthPath not found

libEGL says eglSetSwapRectangleAndroid:1907 error 3008 (EGL_BAD_DISPLAY)

and later EGL error 0x3008 (again).

Update: even with just Amazon vending loaded, Package Manager unpacks its native libs on every boot.

Mounting USB

I just discovered this:

"In order for UMS (USB mount) to work on Gingerbread, this must be reverted:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_harmony/commit/f51f9e2a1037b4e3fb1a"

Which was on: http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/

I go to the page listed and see it refers to: BOARD_USE_USB_MASS_STORAGE_SWITCH

This seems to suggest that I should edit that file, but I have no idea where that file is, or if it really means I should edit it.

Now, I can flash a new kernel, but I need to mount through USB to do it, according to the instructions. Kind of in a catch 22 here. So, can someone explain wiht the BOARD_USE_USB_MASS_STORAGE_SWITCH is and if it will work to edit it.

I love this ROM in almost every way, but this is frustrating.

Do not have your phone overclocked when you are connected to the tab. Also you can try uninstalling Meowsbox on the phone restart then install Meowsbox again on the phone and try to connect again.

I always disconnect the Bluetooth GPS app on the tab first then turn off the Bluetooth on the tab then last the phone Bluetooth connection. This works always for me no problems.

EDIT: If Meowsbox app does not work you can try ShareGPS Beta from the market and install on your PHONE (Phone MUST be rooted)

If you use root explorer press the r/w button at the top and change the file names below in this order :

Voicedialer.apk to Voicedialer.apk.old

Telephonyprovider.apk.old

MMS.apk.old

Phone.apk.old (do this last as a FC loop may ensue right away)

When you do Phone.apk it will most likely cause a FC storm, just reset the tablet and it will go away.
