Roach - more info on crashes

The most frequent error I'm getting is "The process com.google.process.gapps has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." Any idea what that is? I literally never saw that message before 1.6r2.

If no one has any suggestions, I'll drop back to 1.5 this weekend. :(

How are you formatting? Sometimes how (or what app used) to format makes a difference. I've used the Sony SDFormatter for many brands of uSD cards and have yet had problems. And it's free!

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] residentorca:
I've been experiencing the same issue intermittently as reported earlier. It's more of a nuisance than anything else.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] munsterrr:
forgive me if this has been covered already

used the nvflash method on my B60 to flash 1.4(with root and clockwork). Noticed that i cant sign into gtalk or download apps from the market(just sits at waiting)

flashed the 1.6r2 rom through recovery with a full wipe including dalvik

issue remains though
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jtrosky:
Has anyone been able to get Cisco Anyconnect working with 1.6r2?? I would LOVE to be able to get into my Cisco VPN at work on my Transformer! When I run Anyconnect, it says "Completing Setup..." and eventually fails (so I never even get into the AnyConnect app).

Thanks for any help you can offer!

EDIT: From what I can tell, tun.ko is NOT in the default kernel for 1.6r2 (AnyConnect is reporting that in the debug logs)... Does the default kernel have TUN support built-in (release notes say it does)?

Thanks!

Hi, Roach2010. Remember how you said, way back, that you'll make a guide about how to mod the power menu? Have you done it? Could you post a link or explain how to do it?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] AustinMartin:
It looks like ad hoc wifi doesn't work in 1.9. Someone in the q/a forum says that it does for 1.84. Was this left out of 1.9?

Sent from my mopho
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] 24601:
Ad-hoc is working fine for me with 1.9.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] AustinMartin:
I don't know how I ended posting in the 1.6 thread(meant to be in the 1.9 thread).... but how do you add an ad hoc connection? I can see the wifi network through wifi explorer, but in the wifi settings it isn't seen.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jerdog:
This is a deprecated ROM - check the OP for a link to the latest.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ViViDboarder:
Mine show just fine.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] funnycreature:
Works for me but I had it already installed so maybe that makes a difference. I see a total of 3 apps in the search results
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] spuniun:
Yes, the kernel for PRIME 1.2+ includes tun support (built into kernel, not as module). As stated above this is confirmed with the existence of the /dev/tun device. I personally have never used the VPNC widget but the original VPNC client http://code.google.com/p/get-a-robot-vpnc/ which is working perfectly for me. I will try the widget from the market later and see what's going on.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Hatman41:
Worked fine for me and I did not have it installed yet.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] spuniun:
I got VPNC Widget to at least connect by manually creating the tun device at /dev/net/tun as it was not looking for it in it's default location:

$ su
# mkdir /dev/net
# ln /dev/tun /dev/net/tun

This allows me to connect to my concentrator but I'm not passing any traffic over the tunnel. Don't have time to look at logs to see why right now but hopefully this helps you.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] rimmie:
Looks like that definitely helps me :) Thanks! I'm still getting the "root access missing" error, but I'm not getting the "tun" error any more. Hopefully I can figure out why it is complaining about root. I have su and VPNC is on the list. Getting closer ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] rimmie:
Still a couple of issues that are driving me nuts.

1) How do you put the tun sym link in /dev/net? It just deletes the directory every time you reboot. This is getting me passed the tun.ko error, but I have to add the sym link back after every reboot. I suppose a startup script would solve the problem, but from what I have read they aren't easy to install in Android.

2) VPNC still complains about no root access. I have reinstalled the app. I did a hard reboot but still no luck. The superuser window pops up when I run VPNC and I select "Allow". I can also see VPNC in the superuser list.

Hopefully one day Android will include this functionality. This is a good bit of work just to get VPN working. My iPhone setup took all of 30 seconds.

Thanks again for the help.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:
I can't help with your second issue but I can with the first. Add your symbolic link command into the /etc/install-recovery.sh file and the link will automatically be created after a reboot.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ivan.volosyuk:
After I did a factory reset and it worked fine, I realized that I simply disabled notifications in settings. That's why I didn'tsaw notification icons.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jambo89liam:
just got my tf this week. I'll give this a try.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ViViDboarder:
Do we re-install recovery every boot?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:
No but any script with that filename is executed as part of the phone's boot.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ViViDboarder:
Ah, thanks for that clarification.

Also, I am getting some lag when I scroll between home screens and screens in my app drawer. Is this just something we are all experiencing? Or should I wipe and do a fresh install?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] rimmie:
Sorry to keep cluttering up this thread with VPN info. But I finally have working VPN for Cisco with RSA SecurID. I scrapped the VPNC Widget app and instead downloaded the VPN_Connections apk (0.99 I think). I had to install the app over ADB for some reason. At first it wasn't working, but after upgrading from V1.2 to V1.3, I was finally able to get the tunnel working. The built-in Exchange support seems to work fine for Email/Calendars/Contacts.

The only issues that remain are:

1) When disconnecting from VPN, the app hangs and I have to do a force close. I also have to switch to airplane mode and then back to get WiFi working again and prepare for the next VPNC connection. More of an annoyance than anything. I can live with it for a while.

2) I still need to investigate how to set up the proxy to get out on the internet while in VPN. Usually this is set up within the browser. I have the default browser + Firefox + Opera. They all have the benefits and weaknesses. Hopefully one of them will be adequate to set up the proxy settings.

Thanks and Cheers

If you have terminal emulator, type cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state - you'll probably see high values for 216 and 1000 - no happy medium. Need to tweak the gov settings or possibly choose another.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] fatbas202:
Quick question....

What's the difference in the Prime! 1.3 WW and US versions? Sorry if this was covered somewhere in this topic, but I cannot find it.

I live in the US and accidentally flashed the WW version instead of the US version. It runs well (fantastic job, Roach!) but I was just curious if I need to reflash with the US version.

Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ViViDboarder:
Is there a tool yet for choosing governors? Or am I going to have to compile a kernel?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Jocelyn:
How do you flash back to stock? I used my nandroid backup and now things seem to be a little buggy. I'm guessing its because the stock kernel didn't flash with it.

Edit: I probably should have just asked how to get back to stock kernel :P

Edit2: Do I just flash Eee_PAD_TF101_Kernel_Code_8_2_3_9.zip ???
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] neilkarunatilaka:
SetCPU won't work? :confused:

I've been using that.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jtn7040:
just checked the dl versus the md5sums on both the v1.3 and neither matches? can anyone confirm/mirror their's with correct md5?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Jocelyn:
Yes they match.

PS Where can I find a stock kernel to flash? D:
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jtn7040:
they did match? hmm i downloaded them both twice and get the same WRONG md5 sums? did u use chrome to dl?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Jocelyn:
Firefox via Mac os
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] fatbas202:
Clear your cache or use a different browser. Sometimes these things happen.

I downloaded 2 days ago without any problem whatsoever.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jtn7040:
heh that worked stupid internet explorer.... guess that was my first mistake...

I've lost my ability to automatically get a "." on double tap of space bar......
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sunnypv:
sound issue

Flashed 1.3. Unable to control volume its either full or goes to mute.volume slider does not work. Any ideas
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ivan.volosyuk:
Can you move the slider on the screen? When you press volume buttons you can adjust the volume on the displayed slider, does it works for you?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sunnypv:
I can move the slider. But has no effect on volume. Its no volume if the slider is all the way towards . move the slider a tad towards right its full blasting and stays the same as you move all the way towards right.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:
I never knew that was possible, all I get when I double tap is two spaces. Have your tried a stock rom to see if this was removed by Asus?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:
I remember this being a problem on early transformers but I thought asus had fixed it. Does this problem persist even after a reboot or a reflash of the rom?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ViViDboarder:
It's a setting for the keyboard. Check there to turn it on.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:
Oh yeah, i have it working now on prime 1.3r2. I'll maybe release this later tonight.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Igor02:
Hi there!

Just rooted my device today and promt installed your ROM. Didnt get the time to play much around with it though. But I found a bug quite soon.

After the first boot, GPS-signal is seen in the Notification-area although I disabled GPS from the settings..

I dont know how it looks after a reboot - just didnt have enough time.

Is this already known?

Thanks so far! I'll give you more feedback soon ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Shinzul:
Hey Roach, do you mind if I add your stock Prime kernel to Kernel Manager? Or, if you'd like, you can feel free to add it - won't be flashable until I release KM v1.3.0, but it'll be in there...

http://kernels.teamw.in.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Zach Alt:
Awesome, thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] plvaulter06:
thanks a ton everyone! finally got everything working!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:
Hey mate,

Feel free to use any part of the rom in any way you see fit. I can't take any credit for the kernel though, that belongs to Rayman and frysee.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] lithiasalesjs:
Anyone have an idea on how to mount a NTFS SDCARD so it will read it thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] seshmaru:
Use the netformer 1.1 kernel.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] dirwdirw:
whats new of 1.3r2? i found it on the server
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Matchstick:
My Nandroid backup doesn't seem in great shape so I'm wondering if I want to go back to a stock ROM what I need to do.

My initial thoughts go along the lines of:

1) Get the default Stock Recover blob extracted from the Official 8.2.3.13 firmware with blobtools (I can't see an already extracted version anywhere).

2) Flash this Recover Blob in a Superuser ADB shell with the command

dd if=/data/local/<recovery blob> of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4 and reboot tablet, checking that the recovery is now the stock one rather than CWM.

3) Apply official firmware update as usual by extract the complete Asus folder from the stock recovery zip to the root of the MicroSD card and reinsertint MicroSD card.

Anyone got any thoughts or comments, or ever actually tried this yet >
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] boqonx:
Extract the blob from official ASUS firmware and dd it to the mmcblk0p4, then reboot. Make sure you do additional readings to confirm whatever I said.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ivan.volosyuk:
There is a post in General transformer forum from some one who tried and bricked his device, I'm not sure he flashed recovery first.

I did this differently btw. I flashed to partitions separately LNX from blob tools to "boot", APP to system, thus I got stock rom with custom recovery. I would never flash recovery and boot at the same time as it gives good chances to brick your device.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Matchstick:
I know from experience that you can't apply the Asus firmware updates if you haveCWM as your recovery, so I was looking to find the simplest way to get the system to a state where it would handle the standard firmware files.

From what you're saying that may be problematic then.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Jocelyn:
^This I've been trying to get an answer about this for days. I was told to just flash the stock 8.2.3.9 update, but I'm worried about stock blob being pushed and potential bricking :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:
I've pushed both the US and WW 8.2.3.9 stock blobs a few times and not had any problems.

I copy the update to my sdcard and then extract the blob (500mb-ish) from the zip using root explorer. Then from adb I simply use the command 'dd if=/<location of blob> of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4'

It takes a few minutes so be patient and once that's done as long as you didn't get any errors you can reboot and your device will flash the stock update. This doesn't touch your data. Only boot, recovery and the system partition are rewritten.

I would recommend having at least 30% battery before doing this, 50% is overkill imo but any less and you're increasing the risk factor of something going wrong.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Jocelyn:
Yes, I've done this as well to go from rooted to unrooted and its a breeze. The thing I'm not understanding, is going about getting from Prime back to stock. I was instructed to just download 8.2.3.9 from Asus' site, throw it on my sdcard and let it do its thing. My only concern with this, is that in addition to applying the stock rom, it will also apply stock blob while upating. Is there no need to be concerned about this? Furthermore, will doing the above indeed push the stock blob an unroot in the process?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Matchstick:
So this is safe to do over Prime 1.3 even though that is based on 8.2.3.13 ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:
Yeah, follow my last post and you shouldn't have any problems.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] thaddyusmaximus:
Blob v4 to Blob v5.

Will this rom update the blob to v5 automatically?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Matchstick:
That's worked perfectly, thank you :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timtlm:
Is there any mirror for 1.3r2(US)? It's either really slow, or shows web page not available when I try to dowload from those sdx developers links.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] thaddyusmaximus:
I have a dumb question. Can i use any version of CWM of a microsd card. Also I followed the latest guide and have blob v4. How do I boot into CWM?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] verkion:
Hey guys, I'm just wondering when to wipe data/cache/dalvik for ROM updates. On my G2 (phone) the developer numbered his ROMs so that whenever it was a major revision, i.e. number before the decimal changed, that would require full wipe and whenever it was a minor revision, it didn't.

Thanks!

Can someone pull the bootup video - photos (not sure the name to use)

I created a few to play around with and deleted the original files by accident
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:
Here you go.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:
The dalvik-cache is wiped as part of the PRIME! install to avoid conflicts with previous roms.

Help needed

Need help loading rom. I've booted in CWM but for some reason I can not cd in /recovery/microSD.

I rooted + CWM Recovery with Blob 4.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:
In clockworkmod recovery 3.0.2.8 for TF the microsd card is mounted as /sdcard
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] thaddyusmaximus:
I've figured it out. I had to partition the microsd card in CWM.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] erreesse:
is possible to load this rom with update launcher (SOP) instead of clockworkmod recovery?

i'm asking because i'm on the latest firmware.13, and can't get root access!

any help is appreciated.

thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:
No, you can't flash custom roms with Update Launcher. You need to use clockworkmod but you can downgrade to 8.2.3.9 and then root. There's downgrade instructions a few post up. You need to get the full 8.2.3.9 Asus update from their website to do this.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Jocelyn:
You need to downgrade to stock .9 and root before flashing this.

PS Roach I'm still not 100% sure if I'm supposed to just run stock .9 or first apply stock blob then apply .9 in order to get back to stock from Prime. Thanks in advance :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] andrew2511:
hi guys, sorry for my really n00b question.

i'm a new transformer user but i'm not new of android. i installed clockwork and put mcr hr5 but if i want to put this rom, it wipes everything in /data partition or that blob overwrites only /system?

thank you :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:
Your /data partition will not be harmed during the installation of this rom :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] erreesse:
ok. thanks you for this information. now is clear for me.

where i can find ww_8.2.3.9 ?

wasn't available now on asus support!! (probably they pulled off from web)

as i know , i need the same version of my transformer, mine is WW_ , not US_

thanks for help
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] andrew2511:
thank you so much :):)

@erresse you can find 8.2.3.9 rom on my own website :)

Does this rom work with the netarchy kernel? Not getting my tf till tomorrow
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Ultraman666:
Yep it works with his kernel, very fast, smooth, and it works great much better since the update!!

Just installed R2. No problems.

Skickat från min ASUS Eee Pad
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jtn7040:
Works super fast thanks roach... but when i plug in my keyboard tells me i need to asus firmware update my keyboard???? Should i hit yes? will that mess anything up with the rom?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] neilkarunatilaka:
OP states :

lol ;), but yes, i did it a while ago, no problems, if anything, its better.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jtn7040:
thanks man =P

anyone having hain gmore browser force closes?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Zach Alt:
I've got one more bug to report. While you fixed the double tap space for a period, it no longer adds correct punctuation to I'm or can't or anything, you know what I mean, I have to manually add a

:(
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] andrew53517:
If you were asking about browser FC then yes. I had 2 tonight while surfing for over an hour and a half.just thought I'd let you all know.

HTC Thunderbolt & ASUS Transformer Rooted!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:
The browser force close is a known asus fault, read the update changelog thread for more details.

Have you checked your auto correct settings because it's adding punctuation on my device.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jtn7040:
so i just noticeda weird issue does anyone's mouse change colors in the corners of the browser?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] pdcrzylazy:
Installed R2 and am having problems with the email app. It's not able to update. It says

Cannot connect to server.

(Expected string, none found.)

Anybody else experiencing this or does anybody know how to fix it?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] seeingwhite:
The gmail app or regular email app? No problems here with the gmail app.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ewingr:
I think the quoted post here, and another, were trying to decide if this in fact leaves a person with a STOCK device. I am wanting to know this too.

I want to implement this ROM, but I think it wise to not do this unless it is possible to go back to stock, for warranty purposes.

Anyone know?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Segnaro:
Yes, it takes you back to stock. The only evidence left of previous rooting is the stuff you pushed to /data/local is still there, but that would be wiped in a factory reset.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] pdcrzylazy:
The regular non-gmail app.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Roach2010:

Bummer,

thanks Roach
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] dagrim1:
Hmmm, this looks pretty sweet...

I have a UK transformer but flashed Hr5 from Modaco so the code is now US instead of WW... What would be advisable to change to this rom?

1. Flash the US version of this rom over the Hr5? (Is this even possible)

or

2. Use the UpdateLauncher_WW_epad_user_82313.zip from the asus site to go back to WW edition and then flash the WW version of this rom over it.

Can I simply flash the stock asus firmware over Hr5 or do I have to take different steps?

Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] davcow:
I have just moved over from the Modaco ROM to this one.

Had no problems at all.

Just make sure you do a wipe before flashing in CWM.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] residentorca:
Thanks, Roach2010. Just installed your ROM 1.3r2 on my brand new EeePad (and netarchy's OC kernel). The only issue I've seen is that the tablet doesn't appear to sleep when I press the power button. The screen goes blank but then comes back on by itself in a few seconds. It then repeats going blank and coming back on without touching of the screen. I've tried it with wifi turned on and off. Perhaps it's due to some configuration setting I've made?
