[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nigebj:
Nook - No Camera or Mic

The one thing I forgot in my last post and is not covered in the thread is the lack of communications - you will not be using Skype, GTalk, etc, for anything other than text messaging if you go with the Nook.

GTab has a front facing camera and mic. - so if comm's is important, it's a no brainer.

So, have you ordered anything yet ?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssmr2t:
I suggest teh NOOK as Viewsonic will leave you hanging with no support.

I think that the NOOK is still getting updates. Either way, Google viewsonic support experience and read for yourself
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crm_007:
Maybe it is true. I was struggling to choose gtab or nook before. They are at the same price range ($250~300), same color screen (Nook has better screen but gtab has bigger screen), same custom ROM installation required. Finally, I chose gtab because it is really a supper fast tablet (with Tegra due core CPU). I am happy with my decision now. And I am very sure to say........ if without Xda guys "support", I may go for nook. Thanks for Xda developers' efforts.

anyone tried reading travel books with colored photos on either tablet and kindle 3?

I am wondering if a pdf travel book, would be ok on a kindle... Thus being more convenient to take it with me on a trip...
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirhanSirhan:
I use Aldiko premium for my .pdf books complete with photos, and it does the job nicely. I also use the Quickoffice version from the Adam for reading stored .htm book formats complete with photos. I bought an Ipad 1 at launch, and outside of the screen viewing angles and the software incompatibility of different Android builds, the G-tablet is superior in every way. I sold the Ipad and now have two G-tabs from the proceeds(my wife has to have flash). Picked up the last one for $200 used, so for me it is all about value. I hope to put Linux on these things someday soon, which in my opinion will make them usable for years to come.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
Maybe. I'm a bit confused. Are you attempting to use a Bluetooth controller in lieu of a rosie launcher? Also, if you mean is there a way to restore the launcher then yes. All you have to do is go into recovery, wipe cache & dalvik and reflash the rom.

Hey guys,

I have been getting so many PM's and I am sorry not to be able to answer all of them. Most of the questions I got were from people who could not post in Dev Forum and most of the questions were the same. So I would like you all to post here as most users can help you since I cannot answer every single PM.

To all the users who already know an issue please help the people to fix it.

Please keep it organized so I would like to introduce a pattern:

ROM: ?!?

ROM: Cyanogen Froyo CM6-Latest (based on MiniCM/CM6v2) - All working! + Hotfix v1.1

Question: Do i need second partition in SD card to install this? Or i can have only one partition and also will be able to move apps to sd card.

Thank you.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
Solution to Post 2:

You won't need any second partition to move apps, I even recommend not using any other partition cause froyo does a good job with this!

ROM: MiniCM v1.1
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pretis:
ROM: MiniCM v1.1

Question: Is this ROM undervolted (battery life is most important for me) if not, is it possible to undervolt it easy way (through xrec for example)

Question2: does your hotfixes install through xrec?

Question3: Can we expect a full build with all hotfixes + ldpi fix included soon?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
Solution to Post 4:

Q1: The overclocked version is also undervolted if you want stock and undervolted set it to 600 MHz with setcpu (on boot). The not OCed version is not undervolted but i'll add this maybe later

Q2: Yes all hotfixes on first post will always be xrec flashable only thing is to keep the order while flashing so hotfix1 first and then flash hotfix2 and so on.

Q3: Yes but for now the changes have been to small for me to upload another full release

ROM: MiniCMv1.2

ROM: Cyanogen Froyo CM6-Latest (based on MiniCM/CM6v2) v1.3

Question: Hi, I'm new on XDA. Your job is very impressive. I need a little help.

I already installed xRecover, but every time I try to install the rom I got the following error:

Output from Recovery.log

-- Installing: SDCARD:update.zip
Finding update package...
I:Update location: SDCARD:update.zip
Opening update package...
I:Update file path: /sdcard/update.zip
minzip: Missed a local header sig (at 16)
E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
Mount /dev/block/mtdblock0 on /system read-only

I've tried using install Update.zip option, also with install custom zip. Same output for both and for the original filename too. Also checked the MD5 of the file and it was ok. Later I downloaded [ROM] Cyanogen Gingerbread CM7 Final Sources (v13.0 + Hotfix #2) and I installed it without problems. Now I don't know what could be the problem. I googoled a lot about this but no one has a final answer. :confused:

Any help would be great :)

ROM: MiniCMv1.3

Question: I've been using this ROM almost for a day now, it's really impressive. Everything is very stable and works fine. There is only one thing, some apps are not installing from Stock market. For example Angry birds. I don't really need it, but i think it's related to the size of the app so it might come up in other big applications, cause every smaller app downloads and installs fine. Then i try to download and install it, it just starts downloading and disappears after few seconds. Deleting all cache files helps for one time, then you need to delete it again and install another big application. Is there any way to fix it without deleting the cache file?

Bug: Well this is not really a bug, just wanted to say that this ROM has really weak reception, at least until i tried your 1.4hotfix. Where i had 0 blocks i now have 2, and where i had 2 i have 4, so this hotfix definitely works for me. Thank you.

Bug2: Maybe it's just me but keyboard light is on everytime you open it, doesn't matter if it's dark or not. As far as i remember it worked differently in stock rom (maybe i'm wrong).

For the people who are asking about battery life. I have observed how much battery does it use in standby mode. And with almost the same settings as in Stock 2.1 i managed to get about 2hours with 1% of battery. It's still a bit worse than stock where i got about 3.5hours with 1%. I just recently installed reception hotfix and will try to observe the battery life now, i think i'll manage to reach about 3hours with 1%. Gona inform you all later about this.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] giro3000:
Solution to post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13422864&postcount=9

You could move some of the larger apps on to the SD card by going to settings/applications/manage applications, select the application you want to move and select move to SD. This will make more space on the phones flash memory allowing you to download larger apps from the market. Some apps won't allow you to move them to the SD card but most seem to allow it so try a few.

I've never had this problem so can't say for sure but it seems an intuitive fix.

Cheers

ROM: Cyanogen Gingerbread CM7 Final Sources (v14.5 + GPS Hotfix + Camcorder Fix)

Bug 1: When selecting "Reboot into xRecovery" from the shutdown menu my phone locks up at SE screen and I have to use SEUS to get it working again.

Bug 2: Notification LED is on constantly, doesn't flash even though it is set to pulse and 4 (Medium).

Question: I've got all the hotfixes installed, in order, is it normal that the About Phone>Build Number still displays 14.0 Gingerbread MiniCM instead of 14.5?

Thanks in advance. :)

Edit: Bug 1 is no longer valid, advice in another thread suggested reflashing to solve and it seems to have fixed it, Bug 2 and the question still stand though.

Hi Slade87, I saw this thread after PMing you... sorry! Instead of a PM, perhaps you can help me out here as there might be others who face the same problem as me.

Anyway, I installed MiniCM6 v3 on X10MP with the required baseband via xRecovery. Everything went smoothly until the "Touch the android to begin" screen. The touchscreen just does NOT work. All other buttons work though.

I did NOT install MiniCM v1 to 2 as I presume that v3 contains all the previous versions... kindly correct me if I am wrong. Thank you!!!

Apps incompatible

I have MiniCM 3 with the hotfix on my mini pro. For some reason I can't install some apps that I should be able to install like Soundhound. The market says my phone is incompatible. Other people with the same carrier can install these apps.

I know I can download the apk and install it that way but not all app devs offer apks on their website.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
Use market enabler. It can be found in the market or search for it. After that you shouldnt have restrictions
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SamuelDebruyn:
even Market Enabler seems to be incompatible

edit: found the APK, now trying to install some apps

edit: still doesn't work, problem appeared after upgrade to MiniCM 3

edit: when I'm at market.android.com, I search for something, I set the market to show me only the apps that are compatible with my phone, when I click on any install button my phone is greyed out

I can't post in Dev forum so...

About the wifi problem:

0) enable wifi

2) everything works fine

3) when a certain amount of data is transferred, it stops working

4) connection status is still "connected" but every app reports that it has no network connection (it tries to load stuff but fails)

5) disable wifi

6) start again

edit: bluetooth is always disabled so that can't be the problem

F-24 in case you read this, I have the same issues running MMI codes. It works if you use the actual keyboard instead of the on-screen keyboard.

I just have a quick question. Since I have installed your rom, it keeps asking me for sim network unlock pin, when I restart. This did not happen with the stock version. And now I cannot find apps like Skype on the market. If I do it on my computer, and click to install it tells me that it is unavailable in my country.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Re the latest version of CM6 - it says that everything now works. Is that true of ANT+ too, which seemed to be outstanding on a lot of the Froyo roms?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SamuelDebruyn:
I'm having the same problem with the Market that was mentioned in the dev thread. I can install apps from my phone but not from my pc (phone looks incompatible with most apps).

I tried to fix this by completely wiping the system, data, cache and reflashing your MiniCM 3 + v3.01 slider hotfix + azerty keyboard + black layout.

I know but for example: twicca (which should be compatible with my mimmi)

when I click on the install button, the dialog opens but I can't select my phone

when I search for it in the market on my phone everything works as it should and it installs fine

the problem wasn't there in v2.5, in v2.5 the web market worked as it should

Please ignore, bugreport incorrect.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] tgflyer:
"For those wondering what's an hacked market, and if it's working, after you install the update, make sure you go to settings, applications, market and delete data.

The hacked market allows you to access all applications on the market, including those that didn't show up before because the devs didn't make it compatible with your screen resolution and such. To see if it's working, you can just search for "blizzard", if you only find an authenticator app, it's not working, if you also find the remote app, voila, it's working."

I have done all the steps suggested here and on the other thread. I even have reinstalled everything including the latest hotfix.

But I still cannot install Skype. I can't even find it when I do a search from the market app on the phone. If I search for in on the computer, it tells me that it is not available for my country. However, I had it on my phone and it was working before using your rom, slade.

Is there anything I can do to get skype back on?

CameraPro bug & Camera suggestion

ROM: Cyanogen Froyo CM6-Latest (based on MiniCM/CM6v2) - v3.03 + DualTouch
Bug: In Camera Pro after change to CM6 (tested from 1.6)
I can't use zoom any more. While trying to shoot,
it can be seen only upper left part of image.
After picture is taken, preview is normal (whole picture).

Explanation of my post here, I don't know if this bug is related to App only or ROM+App or just ROM so I've report this to the developer of Camera Pro and also here.

Also I have question or suggestion to the Camera App (delivered with CM6). There is 'share picture' functionality, but if in system is many 'sharing providers' like: dropbox, gdoc, ftpclient - this balloon with different providers is so big, that options on top are outside screen, and there is no possibility to scroll this. For example, right now I can't scroll to the Facebook (which I've using) but I see Twitter (which I'm not using). Maybe there is some way to limit providers? (hide not needed or something)

And by the way, thank you for such a great job. This modification kicks ass :) SEX10mp is now way better phone :)

Well, I have installed the latest version of CM, coming fron Owain's CM v4, I did a factory reset on xRecovery, wiped Battery Stats and Dalvik Cache. But for some reason the ROM is very slow :( .

I only get 400-500 on Quadrant. I have JIT on, but turning it off doesn't change anything.

SetCPU is set to 600 max.

If anyone has an idea what would help or if I missed something I would be very grateful if you could share it with me :) . Maybe a clean update coming from stock 2.1 will help?

To answer my own question I did the following in xRecovery

backed up my current setup just in case it all went wrong

wiped DATA[/LIST]

wiped CACHE

wiped Dalvik-Cache

wiped SYSTEM

flashed CM ROM 3.0

flashed CM ROM 3.01 hotfix

flashed CM ROM 3.02 hotfix

flashed CM ROM 3.03 hotfix

rebooted

Everything was fine, phone booted up OK. I am not sure (could be wishful thinking) but I think the phone is running a bit smoother now. I am not sure if that is because I wiped SYSTEM

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] rykel98:
Darren, I know this sounds stupid... but here goes:

Did you place all the hotfixes on your sdcard before wiping out anything?

Did you have to rename all the hotfixes to "update.zip" and if so, how did you do it FAST and easily?

I asked the last question because I have to use the USB cable to rename files on the sdcard, and whenever I do so, the touchscreen goes haywire. What a hassle it is.

Thanks!

UPDATE - MY TOUCHSCREEN ISSUE RESOLVED

Hi Darren, I solved my own problem based on your suggestion. Thank you!

Download and place CM ROM 3.0, Hotfixes 3.01, 3.02 and 3.03 in SD Card root folder

Reboot to xRecovery (press Back button at Sony Ericsson logo - use Volume Control and Home buttons to navigate xRecovery)

Backup and Restore - Backup (current setup)

Partition tools - Format data

Partition tools - Format cache

Wipe cache partition

Advanced options - Wipe Dalvik-Cache

Partition tools - Format system

Factory reset (full wipe)

Flash CM ROM 3.0 - "Install update.zip from SD Card" (I renamed main ROM to "update.zip")

Flash CM ROM 3.01 hotfix - "Install custom zip" (no need to rename anything)

Flash CM ROM 3.02 hotfix - "Install custom zip" (no need to rename anything)

Flash CM ROM 3.03 hotfix - "Install custom zip" (no need to rename anything)

Reboot phone

It worked!

And omg Dualtouch, Camera, battery life etc. are simply BETTER than the stock stuffs and AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! (why doesnt Sony Ericsson do a better job??)
