Thanks for porting this to the Vega, only just got mine on Saturday. :) Sorry if it's been asked already but I can't play youtube videos :( Anyone know why? Thanks in advance.

Android Junkie :D
[Vega Android Development] perrin21:
cos its busted. There will be an update anytime now. lol
[Vega Android Development] HomerSp:
Unfortunately this update won't fix youtube. You can however play non-HD videos.
[Vega Android Development] jayk32:
Ok thanks 4 reply :)

Android Junkie :D
[Vega Android Development] perrin21:
ah thats a shame, i live on youtube.
[Vega Android Development] nickwarn:
Any news on release time? Cant wait, looking 10 times per day for updates.
[Vega Android Development] perrin21:
haha me too lol.
[Vega Android Development] todd69:
Sitting playing with 1.4, Wow!!

Ok it is a bit laggy but as a taster for 1.5, can not wait :-)
[Vega Android Development] vebse:
Have a look at www.smartbook.de. The smartbook is the same tablet like the Vega and is sold from now on with Android 3.0. I hope in a few days we are able to download the firmware from this page :-) fingers crossed :-)
[Vega Android Development] perrin21:
That looks like a promising way to help Richard on with his development. An official rom must be easier for him to work with.
[Vega Android Development] rvdgeer:
Wow, this is huge news...

An official release would speed up the process a lot, I guess....

;)
[Vega Android Development] Ceeefax:
This ROM is one of the main reasons i'm getting a Vega later this week....

Dixon's/Currys/PCworld should give you guys commision! :D
[Vega Android Development] scanno:
On the smartbook site they are saying that the update will be online. Lets hope it will be soon.. At least the nvidia drivers will be available i hope....
[Vega Android Development] vebse:
Beta 1.5 was just released :-)
[Vega Android Development] harmohn:
Sweeeeeeeeet ;D

Edit: bumped to beta 1.5.1
[Vega Android Development] zeussn:
Is it just me or after updating to 1.5.1 su is broken?
[Vega Android Development] harmohn:
Working fine for me fella.
[Vega Android Development] HomerSp:
Not just you, the update zip is unfortunately broken atm.

To fix it you can either manually chmod su from a shell

adb shell chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su

or flash the full rom (you won't lose anything by doing this).
[Vega Android Development] Surrido:
the download link is broken for me.

is there a mirror to the 1.5.1 rom?

thanks
[Vega Android Development] perrin21:
some things ive noticed

Firstly, great effort guys. A massive improvement over 1.4 .

im unable to recreate Richards smartbench score of 4800 getting 4200 @ 1.4

Stock cpu speed of 1.0 is slow to use with noticable lag

Had force close when selecting sound from settings menu

Yahoo mail force closes frequently

Im getting really annoying force close of the launcher after a restart, is anyone else?

Occasional wiered behaviour from market, sometimes loads an app instead of downloads

Cpu works best at 1200 max with 415 min.

Vplayer is unstable when trying to play videos.

Dolphin browser crashes irrecoverably

Youtube app from market works but honeycomb app doesnt

Searches from google search widget crash dolphin browser

Set cpu info time in state causes force close

some things dissappear after factory reset.

Usual stuff not working as listed in release notes.

Nice new boot screen, any chance of something sexy and annimated in the future.

Id love to see an ipad style keyboard, its one thing apple do right.

Keep it up fellas :-)
[Vega Android Development] gichtus:
mailclient

i use 1.5 for daily purpose, most things are working fine for me. but somtimes "compose" force closes when forwarding mails with pdf attachement. is there a chance to gain access to some logfiles ?
[Vega Android Development] Lennyuk:
If none of you noticed 1.5.2 is now out.

This should fix problems with a2sd (link2sd) and SU.

We have been testing all morning and could not replicate the issues.

There may be a problem with bluetooth now though, so please let us know.
[Vega Android Development] just_nos:
can i flash it from cm nightlies thru xrecovery ??

or do i have to use the nflash method ?
[Vega Android Development] Lennyuk:
you can do it via recovery, but you need to wipe if coming from CM7
[Vega Android Development] just_nos:
Thanks will do that tonight
[Vega Android Development] MJ-12:
Just keeps getting better.

Keep up the good work lads...
[Vega Android Development] just_nos:
Damn nice just flashed it from the nightlies to honeycomb ...

Im already loving it. Keep up the goodwork guys :-)

P.s typing from my vegacomb :-)
[Vega Android Development] bob1369:
i think the top of the screen sensitivity issues has do with the 120 lcd density setting a necessity as 160 looks comical however sensitivity issues seem to be eradicated and as i said only in system apps so maybe their not optimised for 120 i doubt google would want a honeycomb tablet with this density

Edit: can't find any sensitivity issues after screen calibration even at the top

Edit: some issues in browser add and close tabs actually lot better though a opera is awesome for tabs and no such problem
[Vega Android Development] polthong:
Could someone tell me how to patch 1.5.1 to 1.5.2 whether I have to full data or delvic cache before intall this patch or not?
[Vega Android Development] perrin21:
Just do dalvik or you will loose installed apps
[Vega Android Development] gichtus:
after wiping dalvic cache and migrating to 1.5.2 it works ;)
[Vega Android Development] shutdown:
with each new update I'm finding the vega getting slower and developing lag.

is this just mine?
[Vega Android Development] Lennyuk:
yes, 1.3 was quick but buggy

1.4 fixed the bugs but slowed the rom

1.5 kept the bugs fixed but brought back speed!

if you think its slow then you should check your overclock settings, sometimes it sticks on low speeds, also if your one of these people that keeps your vega on forever, then reboot it every now and again.
[Vega Android Development] rbensch:
Hi,

here is my 3G Fix for Vegacomb 1.5:

apps2sd nice

cool apps2sd! any particuliar ext

this port seems to be coming along nicely have not flashed honeycomb yet, but with apps2sd now maybe i will

does skyfire video plugin work via browser with skyfires website rendering, just wondering seeing no flash video hack yet
[Vega Android Development] Lennyuk:
can be anything

FAT

EXT2

EXT3

EXT4

I use EXT4, but EXT3 or 4 (or even 2) will be fine

once created, boot rom, open (or download and install first) the app link2sd select your partition type, wait for confirmation and then reboot

on reboot, open the app again open preferences then tick "auto link apps"

then start installing your apps.

OpenVPN working on VegaComb

Ok this is really great. To reach my data at home i have an openvpn server running. With my netbook running ubuntu i usually connect to that. Offcourse i would like that also with my pov mobii.

I was running CM7 before going to VegaComb. Sadly until a few minutes ago i was not able to connect to my openvpn server with VegaComb. With the 1.5.2 version i noticed that the tun module is now correctly added so i thought i would have a try again and failed. I was using the openvpn installer and Openvpn settings from the market.

So it was not working..... but then i thought why not try the openvpn executable from CM7?????? So i looked inside the system.img from one of my CWM backups of cm7. I extracted /system/xbin/openvpn, /system/xbin/openvpn-up.sh and /system/lib/liblzo.so and pushed them to my pov... Then started the openvpn settings app from the market..... And...... working :-)

Hope this helps anybody....
[Vega Android Development] btyre:
Small bug but it really gets on my nerves; the text when putting the tablet into usb drive mode says turn off instead of turn on.

It would be great if it could be fixed.

Other tan that, this is a great rom.
[Vega Android Development] Lennyuk:
I get this too, but Newb5 doesn't

when did you last do a fresh install i.e. wipe and flash?

I think if you wipe and flash the latest version then the "bug" is gone.
[Vega Android Development] henky92:
how do i get into recovery from vegacomb 1.3? Doing adb reboot recovery only reboots regularly...
[Vega Android Development] IndyUK:
Hi,

I've been following this quite a bit and I'm getting very tempted to try it out. However, there is one functionaility that I need in particular and that is the CIFS/NFS support (with Mount Manager from market). Is this builtin? If not can it be applied adhoc?

Keep up the great work guys. What you're doing/done is very impressive.

Thanks.
[Vega Android Development] Lennyuk:
adb reboot recovery_2 if I remember correctly

alternatively use the recovery reboot app in the rom itself.
[Vega Android Development] henky92:
Thanks for the reply! But unfortunately it didn't work. Still booted normally... there's no recovery app in the rom also, any other solution?
[Vega Android Development] bob1369:
Adb shell recovery_2

Adb reboot

[Vega Android Development] Lennyuk:
you can download the app from the market, its published by modaco.

and try what Bob said above this post.
[Vega Android Development] greywolfnz:
in 1.4 i was able to run BT5 chrooted .

but now on 1.5.x i cannot . there seem to be an issue on mount -o loop,noatime etc alway complaining about loop device.

doesn't seem to like when i specify ext3 as fielsystem but works with ext2
[Vega Android Development] rvdgeer:
Just hold the power button for about 2 seconds and choose recovery...

This should be in first post somewhere...
[Vega Android Development] polthong:
U can use reboot menu and choose recovery in order to boot to recovery mod by press power menu about 4 minute and then will prompt menu to choose other power options you should reboot menu and then recovery. Enjoys.
[Vega Android Development] scanno:
Portrait mode

I do not know if anybody noticed this before. It is not really a problem, but in VegaComb when an application needs to be in portrait mode the portrait mode is "upside down". With this i mean that the volume buttons are on the downside while with the 2.x roms the volume butons are on the upside...
[Vega Android Development] Lennyuk:
No! He said in version 1.3, the power menu options were not added in till 1.5
[Vega Android Development] greywolfnz:
kernel modules

Anyone has list of modules available with the kernel . Or what is prebuilt as trying to get some usb devices to work.

Or may be i should jump in the thick of it and try to recompile kernel from sources.. any links to source for the kernel used with this rom
[Vega Android Development] hudster2001:
Can someone post full instructions on how to flash this. I tried via cwm but it wouldn't flash.

And. I can't find any full instructions anywhere to flash it.

Thanks for any help.
[Vega Android Development] jayk32:
Ok boot into recovery do all the wipes then install Rom. When finished reboot ur Vega, this is how I do it with no problem :) If that fails then re-download the Rom cause the one u have could be corrupt. Hope this helps. :)
[Vega Android Development] DonDragon:
You guys have a lot force close issus to? and when coming out standby alot of lagg?? even when it runs on 1,5 ghz
[Vega Android Development] geekyhawkes:
Not wanting to sound like I'm chimping, just wondering really... will flash be working any time soon, and is it likely to be a full reflash or just a patch? Thanks
[Vega Android Development] todd69:
I have flashed the patch for 1.5.2 but when i check the version number in settings it still states 1.5.1?

Any ideas, the flash process showed as succesful.
[Vega Android Development] HomerSp:
Yes, we forgot to increment the version number in build.prop. So you are in fact on 1.5.2, it just doesn't say so in the system settings :)
[Vega Android Development] todd69:
Thanks for that :-)

Keep up the good work mate.
[Vega Android Development] fritz.hu:
YOUR KUNG-FU IS STRONG

This is the most awesome ROM for the Vega I've ever seen. Absolutely brilliant, and a HUGE "well done" to everyone involved!

The only issue I have is the speed - I'm on 1.5.2 and it seems very slow, perhaps slower even than the demo videos. I cleared data, cache and dalvik cache before installing 1.5.1 and then the patch to 1.5.2, and have been using it for a few days. Browsing XDA is very slow, and anything to do with the home screen (launching apps, mostly) is very slow.

Would this be something with my device (it's a Viewsonic Viewpad 10s, which I understand to be simply a rebranded, unmodified Vega)?

Is there something I can do to fix this?
[Vega Android Development] raptaqua:
hi, i installed vegacomb to my friends viewpad 10s and it worked just great...

wifi + 3g worked fine and apps lauched pretty quickly. web browsing was good and responsive
[Vega Android Development] CrArc:
Have you checked your CPU isn't locking to 216MHz? This usually causes the slowness you describe, and it happens after waking up the tablet from sleep.

I didn't have this issue until this morning, when it randomly began appearing every time I woke the tablet; until this morning, I'd been happily running 1.5.0 for the last few days. Going to try 1.5.2 now to see if a fresh install fixes the issue; no idea what cause it to start happening.
[Vega Android Development] polthong:
I use it for 2 week it make me happy and hope improve more on next update

I am looking forward to hearing your new release version. :-)

[Vega Android Development] Stransky:
Hi

You need Set CPU or one of the other CPU Overclocking apps from the market.

[Vega Android Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
I had the same issue with my Viewpad 10s. Installed "CPU Master Free" from the market, put the CPU on 1200MHz (slight over clocking) and now it runs smooth.
[Vega Android Development] just_nos:
And still with cpu master it locks at 261MHZ even when u set it at boot wil try thr patch to 1.5.2 see of it makes any differance
[Vega Android Development] paxophile:
Hello everyone, I live in China, and work on a tablet retail and wholesale website. Therefore I am always in the markets here checking out what's new. I came across the OEM version of the Vega, but the salesman is claiming that it is running Android 3.1. I took a screenshot with my camera and was hoping that the experts here could take a look and let me know what they think. It's my opinion that they have hacked the ROM to say Android 3.1, but maybe someone can look at the other details (like Kernel, firmware number) and see if they can figure out what OS the machine really IS running. Remember, this tablet is straight from the factory, so maybe, just maybe, some Honeycomb love IS happening here?!
[Vega Android Development] brianlang:
Just got my pov mobii yesterday, and ofc i have to try this rom. One question though..did i understand correctly that flash 10 is NOT supported?
[Vega Android Development] rbensch:
You can see VegaComb and Beta 1.5.1, i think i don't need to say more. :rolleyes:
[Vega Android Development] hudster2001:
This rom is amazing. Just a wee bit laggy. But i'm sure the speed will come eventually :-D
[Vega Android Development] Lennyuk:
It is just running this rom, VegaComb 1.5.1 (so out of date too) and is Android OS 3.0.1 not 3.1
[Vega Android Development] Zebwen:
This tablet is running VegaComb. It is Android 3.0.1, and it is 100% VegaComb, they haven't even bothered to rename the ROM :P

There is at least 1 Chinese manufacturer that appears to be shipping tablets with VegaComb installed as standard, something that they are neither licensed for (by google) or asked permission to do (by us).

The version of VegaComb they are running the the Beta. They haven't changed or fixed anything, so the bugs that are present in the Beta are also present on these tablets. It's a ripoff, stay well away.

[Vega Android Development] Bennji:
This looks great, I had a couple of issues though:

- It's a bit laggy

- When I try to download the 1.5.2 patch Dolphin Browser fell over, would this work with a different browser

- Couldn't get back into Clockwork Mod Recovery to restore to another ROM so had to reflash stock and reinstall Clockwork Mod Recovery

- I'm back on Corvus 5 now so I might try to download the patch on that then reinstall 1.5.1 again from scratch then add on the patch (does the patch fix any lagging issues?) but is there a general issue of downloading files on this ROM?

ps what does honeycomb give us that we didn't have before (I liked the launcher, would that launcher not work on Froyo?)
[Vega Android Development] Lennyuk:
its way way way more than just a new launcher, its a whole new way of treating applications, you will see that an apk such as plume on an OS lower than 3.0 will look like a phone app, on 3.0 and higher looks like a tablet app.

This is just one of the many many changes made in 3.0
[Vega Android Development] Bennji:
Ah, I had noticed plume - it really is excellent.
[Vega Android Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
I am running this great ROM, but the launcher somehow sucks. A lot of screen space is wasted left and right. Now I am running VT Launcher on it. Even Gojimi says its not ready for Honeycomb, its running well, just a few problems with some scrollable widgets. But VTL runs even smoother imho than the original HoneyComb launcher!
[Vega Android Development] danchappers:
Hi,

Does anyone know how I get a usb dongle (Huawei E170) to work with Vegacomb?

Cheers
[Vega Android Development] paxophile:
Thanks for the replies guys, I meant to write Android 3.0.1. But I do see now that the firmware is marked Beta. ;)
[Vega Android Development] C64c:
Just two things.- -

Ive installed the ROM and have two questions:

- In the about section, it says VegaComb 1.5.1, although i have installed 1.5.2.

- And I find the ROM lags in places like when using the Market or switching between apps. Is that normal as its a BETA or is there something wrong with my Vega? I have installed SetCPU and overclocked to 1.5ghz.

Thanks all.
[Vega Android Development] vebse:
I have deinstalled SetCPU and installed CPU-Tuner. Now I have less lags at startup and the tablet feels very smooth.

VegaComb 1.5.2

Just try it and report here.

I have also 1.5.2 installed, but version 1.5.1 is displayed. This wasn't changed in the patch.
[Vega Android Development] Cass67:
It says 1.5.1 as the build.prop was not updated to reflect the 1.5.2 patch, this is known, don't worry.

With regards to the lagging, i found that if you raise the min cpu speed to 400+ it will go away, 276 or whatever seems to be too slow for smoothness.. Also switch the governor to performance, i found that helped too..

Im on 1.5.1 and its as smooth as can be expected right now, which is to say ive given up cm7 and now use this as a daily driver.
[Vega Android Development] C64c:
I dont seem to be able to set the governor on the front screen. Also there is no menu button to get other options??
[Vega Android Development] rvdgeer:
Yeah, I would also like to know how to switch the governor with SetCPU...
[Vega Android Development] Lennyuk:
We cannot (currently...) control governors on the vega, lots of people have tried to work out why and failed, they just refuse to work.

This may not be like this forever, but at the moment there is no possible way of knowing if this will ever be fixed.

This effects the vega as a device, regardless of rom (kernel).

OpenVPN on VegaComb

Hi all,

In an earlier message i wrote that i managed to get OpenVPN working on VegaComb version 1.5.2. The way i got it working was to copy some files from the CM7 rom for the Vega (thanks mad-murdock for that).

For the people who do not want to get busy with extracting those files from a CM7 rom and do not want to use adb to put the files on, i have created a zip file that can be flashed through CWM recovery.

Please remember i did not compile, wrote or otherwise did anything to those files. Please thank the real authors for that. I just put them in the zip file.

Also i want to say that i am not responsible for any damage and so on (the usual disclaimer). The zip file is not signed.

So just flash this zip file through recovery. It installs 3 files:

- /system/xbin/openvpn (the openvpn executable)

- /system/xbin/openvpn-up.sh (script file that is executed when connection is made)

- /system/lib/liblzo.so (a library file which supports the lzo compression)

For the rest install OpenVPN Settings from the market. Make sure in advanced settings that a modprobe is done (to make sure the tun kernel module is loaded) and have an ovpn config file in the openvpn directory on your sdcard.

This should be it. Have fun :-)
[Vega Android Development] Cass67:
Unless im misunderstanding your statement or the problem with regards to the governor control but to me it seems to operate just nicely .. Using CPUmaster i can see govs in the list and can change them accordingly. These changes are reflected in

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq

# cat scaling_available_governors

performance powersave ondemand

(changes below for gov made in CPUmaster gui)

# cat scaling_governor

performance

# cat scaling_governor

ondemand

# cat scaling_governor

powersave

# cat scaling_driver

tegra_cpufreq

# cat scaling_max_freq

1400000

# cat scaling_min_freq

456000

# cat cpuinfo_cur_freq

456000

So, what dont i understand about this issue, is this sys interface merely cosmetic ?

Saying that, i did notice that SetCPU seems to not show anything in a list when i looked, thought that was just an issue with me, didnt look into it too much . Possibly no support in-built for Tegra2..

Since updating (or possibly installing an app) I've started to get this error on boot up:

the application launcher (process com.android.launcher) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

Can i reinstall the launcher or will I have to wipe and reinstall the rom? As I'd insalled a few apps since the update and not rebooted i'm not sure what caused it.

Thanks for any ideas.
