Nope! :P Still working on this ROM, have a couple of updates in-hand, but want to fix a couple more things before releasing anything! We are still working! But there aren't many of us, and I have a full-time job, as well as decorating my house, as well as a wife and daughter, and also my USB cable just broke :P

The world is conspiring against me! :P

I have a problem with this version HC (beta 1.6): I lost superuser permissions.

How I install superuser permissions in this beta 1.6?

Thanks
[Vega Android Development] MarkyG82:
I must say that after initial issues with the rom, my vega seems to have settled and wifi is stable. Using it more than my laptop now :-)

Really looking forward to the updates. Is there any chance of a better prediction on the keyboar?

Cheers

[Vega Android Development] Dyonas:
Please! One of the older versions had predictions using the default keyboard but none since. I have alternate keyboards but still prefer the default one.
[Vega Android Development] sbeddoesdesign:
Been using this for a couple of weeks now, it's near perfect to be honest. I've not noticed any more issues other than those I already mentioned. Very impressed guys, so very nearly there!!

So Honeycomb is certainly awesome. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to be able to use it, decided my 'upgrade' is going to be to a Samsung Galaxy 10.1 and not an iPad, Blackberry or WebOS tablet, because I find Honeycomb to be the best tablet OS out of all of them.
[Vega Android Development] jimpsar:
Hello just bought Vega tablet and has cm7 on it.

To install vegacomb download 1.6 AND install it in cwm???
[Vega Android Development] cddt:
Keep up the good work newbe5; Eagerly anticipating the next update.
[Vega Android Development] Zebwen:
Duly noted guys, I will see what I can do, this will probably take up extra /data space though :P

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a good news widget like the one in the Corvus ROM?

I think it is the Google one after looking through the ROM, GenieWidget.apk, but if I try to install, it fails on VegaComb 1.6.

Thanks

Tim
[Vega Android Development] hydo1:
The ROM is supposed to support the Huawei E155 3G dongle, I have tried to use my ZTE MF636 (Orange Business Everywhere) and it will search for networks and will register on the Orange network. The APN list displays the correct Orange details and the signal bar displays signal but 'no connection' is displayed on the notification menu and It will not load web pages.

Anyone know what is wrong? Is it just that Vegacomb doesn't fully support the dongle yet?
[Vega Android Development] Dyonas:
I'm willing to take the hit. At worst, since I know not many have mentioned this as an issue for them, could you make it an optional patch? I don't know if that's possible or not since I don't know what, exactly, is missing.
[Vega Android Development] rbensch:
Can you send me a logcat?

Then I will look at it.

[Vega Android Development] jimpsar:
any news for 1.7 release?
[Vega Android Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Lets see how this evolves. Corvus5 still does not support internal 3G modems on Viewpads and pov Mobii devices. Honeycomb without 3G modem support is useless for users of advanced ""Advent Vegas"" with integrated 3G connectivity.

================

Just teasing :p:p:p:p:p

Guys! Good job! Go on! But don't forget us small (but growing group) of owners with internal 3G modem!
[Vega Android Development] mintvilla:
you wont get an update.zip file

theres no way to change the partition that way, and thus nflash has to be used. (atleast for the first installation, after your partition has been changed then update.zip files can be used).
[Vega Android Development] Dyonas:
I might be missing the obvious but how do you use NVFlash to test this out?
[Vega Android Development] chrishull85:
Unzip the download and read the pdf explaining how to flash!! its the same as flashing the standard rom from Advent except you will run a .bat instead of a .exe
[Vega Android Development] AndroidChromeOS:
Aawww thats awesome :) Now fix wifi and I'm in heaven :D

Great work so far!
[Vega Android Development] Danidemi:
Wow this look awsome i will download and give it a try..... a front page for this congratz.
[Vega Android Development] Dyonas:
Despite your !! thanks :P I was going to do that earlier but I got distracted just after posting by sleep.
[Vega Android Development] harmohn:
Wow alpha 3 is a go already :-O

Can't wait to try it when I get out of work :P

Amazing work chaps!! :)
[Vega Android Development] Zebwen:
Mail post updated to Alpha3. Wifi working, Sound, G-Sensor, SD Card, and a LOT more changes behind the scenes.

Have fun!

newbe5
[Vega Android Development] sd00:
Now I'm excited. In fact I'm feeling kinda sick boss, can I go home? :)
[Vega Android Development] AndroidChromeOS:
Okay Alpha3 is so cool..

If you want to get a working Browser, just type androtux.dyndns.org/1.apk in the stock browser and install the downloaded apk.

With fennec you can show all websites cause it does not use the stock rendering-engine.
[Vega Android Development] sd00:
worked for me tho I prefer opera so I searched opera mobile 11 apk and installed that.

posted from within opera on honeycomb on my Vega!!
[Vega Android Development] HunteronX:
Does anyone have a working link to download the rom, as the one provided doesn't work for me - it times out. If not, please could someone upload it again?

Thanks. :)
[Vega Android Development] AndroidChromeOS:
try that: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=2LL94Y44
[Vega Android Development] HunteronX:
Thanks, but this still doesn't work... :confused:

Would it be possible for you to upload it to mediafire?
[Vega Android Development] AndroidChromeOS:
If that does not work, its still you.. try using another browser. But that files are definitely online.. sry
[Vega Android Development] Danidemi:
It is running but i cant seem to find if i can login to my google account.... he cant establish a connection with thr google servers. Other than that what a f..ing good job you did.

grtz
[Vega Android Development] Nelisje:
Thanks for the great work.

Does anybody have problems loging in to their Google account? I can't log in, it says connect to wifi but i am allready connected and internet is working. Can anyone help plz.
[Vega Android Development] yioti:
In the 'what doesn't work' list on tabletroms where the post is originally it says that there is still no google account.

Bluetooth Signal Strength

Have to complement you on a great effort.

I installed 1.6 yesterday (Viewpad 10s) and am very happy. One thing I did notice was the bluetooth signal strength when pairing with a2dp devices is about 40% weaker than in the stock 1.10 ROM. The reason I know this is that I use a bluetooth speaker to listen to music, with 1.6 I need to be within a meter or so of the speaker with 1.10 I could be 2 meters away and it works fine. I remember in windows mobile their were registry parameters for tweaking bluetooth, but I am relatively new to Android and can't seem to find them.

Is there a way of improving bluetooth signal strength.
[Vega Android Development] jimpsar:
can we use another keyboard with vegacomb?missing greek input.
[Vega Android Development] hydo1:

Preview of 1.7 ...counting down the hours! ;)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQM2ASGy3HA&feature=youtube_gdata_player
[Vega Android Development] shutdown:
that is a tasty looking update!

i am so impressed with the work going into this. Between making my Vega run HC and my HD2/Leo run CM7 I am so impressed with all the developers here. You are all awesome peeps
[Vega Android Development] hudster2001:
Woot. This just keeps getting better and better. It's already my daily driver.
[Vega Android Development] Ev0s:
My Vega is not that fast even running at 1.5MHz, think I might do a full wipe for the next release and start from scratch. Hopefully it will run like it does in the video. This is an amazing ROM. Much appreciated.
[Vega Android Development] hydo1:
I had this problem when I first installed vegacomb, but I re-flashed using cwm, wiped factory settings, cleared cache partition and cleared the dalvik cache (in advanced). After doing this I found that it ran much faster.
[Vega Android Development] Pai.Tincho:
1.7 seems so sweet...

I hope we have the chance to play with it this weekend :)
[Vega Android Development] OpenMinded:
Awesome video!

can't wait to flash it :).

just eploring 1.6 on my viewpad 10s, it is awesome!

thanks a lot guys!
[Vega Android Development] Dyonas:
I've just watched the preview of 1.7 and it looks great! There is one thing I'm curious about and I posted on the comments there too asking about it. Is the top of the screen sensitivity issue a Vega issue or an unresolved software issue? It's been so long since I used another ROM that I can't remember.
[Vega Android Development] bob1369:
software issue
[Vega Android Development] Tezray:
Is the keyboard double or triple clicks with one press even with power uplugged software because honeycomb doesn't seem to do it?
[Vega Android Development] Pai.Tincho:
Battery life?

Does anyone knows about the battery life on Vegacomb 1.6? Overclocking to 1.2Ghz affects this topic? I still have the stock firmware and the battery life is pretty good (something between 6 to 8 hours of use) and dont´t want to loose too much on this side.

Thank guys!
[Vega Android Development] jimpsar:
use rom manager to enter cwm to flash 1.7 or can we use buttons combo?
[Vega Android Development] Dyonas:
Personally I find the standby battery life to be around 36 hours with light to moderate use. It is longer with stock ROM but only you can decide if it's worth it. Overclocking will impact the battery life but it isn't really needed here in my opinion.
[Vega Android Development] todd69:
loving this, really is great.

found I had to do a couple of reboot before it settled down but all in a solid piece of graft.

10/10
[Vega Android Development] hudster2001:
I'm loving 1.7 its lightning fast. I have one issue, my tablet is saying i'm located outside the uk, i'm in glasgow. So Iplayer won't work. Anyone have an idea how I can change my location?
[Vega Android Development] todd69:
you turned on wireless in the location settings, worked for me.
[Vega Android Development] todd69:
might have come across a problem, after using this for a wee while the system slowed right down, I checked CPU master and the CPU reading was stuck at 216, even though the settings were set to performance.

rebooted and everything's OK again but sure I've read about this happening in previous roms?
[Vega Android Development] Dyonas:
I'm seeing a lot of force close issues with YouTube. It doesn't matter what video I pick there seems to be a 50/50 chance of it crashing out instantly. The one that I can reproduce consistently, and could in 1.6, is if I view my subscriptions under "My Channel" and scroll down then as soon as I get near the end of the subscriptions it will force close.

That's the negative out of the way. With the working Flash in Opera I'm able to use the YouTube website and it seems better suited for showing new videos from subcribers than the app.
[Vega Android Development] gewin:
Bluetooth Signal Strength

Thanks again for producing such an excellent ROM. Installation was very straight forward and performance seems good. I did notice a drop off in performance after using it for a few hours. I have installed CPU Master and set scaling to performance. I will monitor this issue for a while.

I have notice the number of force closes of applications has reduced after a few reboots. don't understand why this happens. Now I have installed what I want the environment has stabilized.

I really like this Rom now. The one burning issue for me is bluetooth performance.

The Bluetooth signal strength is still low compared to 1.10, this issue was also reported in 1.6, so hopefully someone will find a fix.
[Vega Android Development] bob1369:
yes it was just a buggy stock keyboard and rom
[Vega Android Development] BlackTigerX:
Thanks for the 1.7 update, works much better as the 1.6 release imho!

Good enough to be my daily driver for now but it still has it's little slowdowns (even though oced to 1,5ghz). Can live with that for now :)

Great work so far!
[Vega Android Development] wildcat777:
Great work guys,just keeps getting better and better,you tube seems a little jerky also playing videos that have been downloaded are slightly jerky when played using the movie player,though if you use moboplayer downloaded from the market they play perfectly.

Only problem with using moboplayer is the hardware buttons on the bottom stay lit and don't fade out like they do when using movie player,little annoying but worth living with so I can have honeycomb,once again great work lads.
[Vega Android Development] bob1369:
Still won't install ://////// what am I doing wrong restore to newbes new base wipe all instal in clockwork
[Vega Android Development] wildcat777:
That's the way I did it and it installed fine:-)
[Vega Android Development] bob1369:
That's my point
[Vega Android Development] hudster2001:
It could be a dodgy zip file. I had to download it twice to get it to work.
[Vega Android Development] wildcat777:
Did you wipe the dalvik?
[Vega Android Development] bob1369:
Both of the above this haa been a problem for me since 1.5, multiple downloads always wiping everything coming from stock and corvus and of course the modded stock, all other roms install fine no error message from clockwork but only a bsod after installation, no adbc requires nv flash restore to return to usable state, 1.5 worked for me until a mysterious crash after a force shutdown bsod appeared and no version of this rom has worked since
[Vega Android Development] gewin:
I hate to state the obvious, but if others are doing the install exactly the same way. ie modded 1.10, wipe caches, CWM install of 1.7 from zip on sd ; and are being successful, then the only things left if your are failing are :-

-slightly different hardware, hardware/memory error, micro sd card fault in either transfer or storage of zip. I would start my trying a different freshly formated microsd and transferring the file to it a different way, put the zip at the top level.

Hope this helps
[Vega Android Development] BlackTigerX:
@Zebwen

Got this from the Desire HD thread but should work for any device.

Introduction to the new Overclocking Daemon and here

Maybe this is intersting for you, could reduce the lags when the devices wakes up.

Hope to see this integrated soon :)
[Vega Android Development] OpenMinded:
Like others, I have been unable to get the market working.

Apps fail to download.

Have it on 1.6 and 1.7, while it is no issue on for example corvus5.

Does anyone know a solution?

For the rest: pretty awesome ROM!

Can't wait to have a working camera and market :)
[Vega Android Development] Zebwen:
When you are trying to do this, is the SD card inserted, and do you have the Vega connected to the PC with the cable and sharing the SD card contents with the PC?

The market downloader in VC requires access to the SD card to cache the downloads. If it can't access the memory card for any reason, downloads will fail.

newbe5
[Vega Android Development] gewin:
Market works for me with no problems I have load about 15 applications from the market using my home wifi network. It was actually the first application I ran after the install, it asked me to sign in with my account and I was away.
[Vega Android Development] wildcat777:
Markets working fine for me to.
[Vega Android Development] bob1369:
i see your reasoning however surely these problems would be issues for all rom installations and prevent me installing corvus which works and always has. My model is a standard advent vega with stock sd card using a top spec imac to transfer files
[Vega Android Development] OpenMinded:
SD card is inserted, not connected to PC.

I got it working now, by removing the account and adding another one.

Still worked when changing it back, so it seems account deleting works for me.

The only thing is I experience some lagging sometimes, couldn't play Angry Birds, but after a reboot I could.

Did anyone have the issue that when touching the screen it is in some kind of zoom mode?

Like Angry Birds is unplayable then :).

Keep up the good work, thanks a lot.

Would the original camera apk work on this, or is it framework stuff that is missing?

It is not as smooth as corvus5 yet, but the look and feel makes it preferable for me
[Vega Android Development] Bennji:
My apps in the market FCs. it worked fine when I first installed and I downloaded a few apps from the market. Now when I try to install an app it FCs saying it's my apps that is FCing, same thing happens when I select my apps.

Something funny going on with the sd card, when I'm in settings, storage I can't click on any of the SD card options?

Otherwise this ROM is awsome.
[Vega Android Development] beluga_nl:
Market problem in VegaComb 1.7

+1 !

(market My Apps results in FC after installig several apps successfully)
[Vega Android Development] Bennji:
I reinstalled and all worked fine

I think the root cause is restoring apps via titanium backup, I've not done any this time and it still works whereas the first time I installed I had restored some apps.
[Vega Android Development] vimesUK:
Yes I too found the problem (and noted it over at modaco) when I restored my wife's apps. A full install, after a wipe, and it works fine but I did restore the data for her game of Plants Vs Zombies, otherwise she would have lost all of her progress and my life would have been hell.!

I managed to get away with it when I restored mine but I will note this for future.

It might be useful for newbe5 to note this potential issue in the first post.

EDIT: Scrap that as mine has just started to FC on the market. Guess another full install is the way to go, without using Titanium this time..!!!
[Vega Android Development] splinter82:
I had the 'My Apps' problem, but I restored the My Apps file from my full Titanium backup and that seemed to sort all the problems. Try that if you can!
[Vega Android Development] OpenMinded:
i have noticed another issue: after some time of being on, there a maps force close message.

When just pressed it is ok, but it comes back after some time.

I think i did update it from the market, so it might be that.

still: +1 :)
[Vega Android Development] Pyr0x64:
had a couple of lockups with 1.7 just browsing forums with Opera mobile

thinking it might have something to do with the 1200 clock speed, i installed setcpu (cpu master didn't work) and set the max to 1000.

so far no lockups today.
[Vega Android Development] vimesUK:
Alas I gave up with VC, for now.

I have installed Corvus and its SP1. Also the Honeycomb theme and the ADW Launcher EX. Then I set the DP to 120. So far so good and now I have a fully working ROM which also looks good :)
[Vega Android Development] BlackTigerX:
Have the same issue with clocked to 1400 Mhz max, but ONLY in Opera - no where else.

I also noticed that WiFi doesn't reconnect automatically after reboot even though it's activated.

And today I also had the 216Mhz bug, needed to reboot to solve - only happened one time so far.

One more thing, I use ThumbKeyboard and everything works fine after installation, until I reboot - then no themes are working anymore and everything looks distorted. Reinstallation is the only way to solve, until next reboot.

Could this have sth to do with the /data/tombstones folder that get's deleted every reboot?

Apart from those little drawbacks I really enjoy using VegaComb!

BTW: Does anyone know if this "slow and laggy" screen on/off animation is a hardware based thing or software? If it's software based then the CRT animation might be a nice solution.
[Vega Android Development] luke2020:
Swap

Hi, I don't know much about this but is it possible to have vegacomb use a swap partition on my sdcard to increase the effective ram? Would this require a modification of the ROM and has anyone tried this/would it have a significant benefit? Thank for any advice on this
[Vega Android Development] vimesUK:
AFAIK you would not be increasing your RAM but just remapping the internal storage space on the Vega. I might be wrong with this but the cache could be reduced to 2mb (I forgot what but I think there is something that needs the cache being where it is and 2mb is enough) and the rest is then redirected to the SD card. That would give the ROM writers more to play with, in terms of space for the System, but not every ROM redirects to the SD card and thus there would be problems if you changed to one of those.

I have just needed to use G-Script and use a small script to redirect the CorVus ROM's cache to the SD card as the game I bought (Fieldrunners @ 38mb) would not download. Redirecting it to the SD card and it now downloads and installs fine.
[Vega Android Development] OpenMinded:
on the maps issue I had, force closing sometimes, I think it is solved.

The market showed it was not updated after I did.

I removed the update, reinstalled it and it seems to work ok now.

I had 1 hangup when starting Cory, but it worked after the reboot.

Finally, Google+ does not let me share a photo, even from the online album.

It force closes when the share button is pressed.

Hope that info might help the devs for further optimisation.

I am still amazed by how awesome this ROM is!
[Vega Android Development] gewin:
Wireless issue (WPA)

Is it just me or is the wireless scanning slow and weak. Wireless connections are not reconnected automatically. If I am in a weak signal zone I cannot connect or see the network. However If I connect to the zone where the signal is strong then walk to the weaker area my connection stays useable. If I stay in this weak zone turn the wireless off, then on again I cannot connect.

Like bluetooth the wifi signal strength also seems to be degraded.
[Vega Android Development] gewin:
Xda Developer

One other problem I would like to report is that at least on my tablet XDADeveloper from the market is unstable. I get Force close when I access forums from the favorites menu. I would guess is may be an application compatibility issue with Honeycomb as it does not happen on Gingerbread. May not even be a problem with this ROM, but it is annoying.

Still very happy with 1.7
[Vega Android Development] wildcat777:
Use tapatalk to access xda,it works flawlessly
[Vega Android Development] bob1369:
I've had this problem on my desire it is caused by doing a full restore in titanium deselect all red text apps before restore and it wil not happen
[Vega Android Development] Dyonas:
For those having issues with backups you might want to try "MyBackup Pro" instead of Titanium. I have both and I have less issues with it when switching around with ROMs. I'm not saying it will fix your problems but for a small fee it can't hurt to try. I know I've paid for alternate apps when it fixed an annoying issue.
[Vega Android Development] deimdos:
hi guys, will somehow affect the release of the source code of Honeycomb 3.2 to VegaComb?
