hi guys, i have downloaded the XDA plenty of times now, and everytime i try and log on, it loads and then shows a white screen for around 2 minutes, and then says incorrect username or password, but i know i have entered them right.

does anybody else have this problem? and does anybody know how to solve it?

thanks in advance

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Funkadelick:
Ok so I download an mp3 using one of the many mp3 apps out there (Music Box Pro) I have it set to download to SD/Music

When I open up file explorer I SEE THE FILE in this directory, and I can, via this explorer app, select and open the song and listen to it.

But why can't I locate it on Winamp ? Why can't I use a ring tone maker to locate and use this song ? It finds many other songs -- but not the ones I download

anyone know why ? is a permissions thing ?

basically I am wondering why I can't access the songs I download - I can't assign them to play lists, etc. or use as ring tones. Why not ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
Try finding the music box pro file on sd card and if it exists open it and if the tracks are in it then copy them to another folder ie sounds
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Funkadelick:
nah, I have it so that the tracks are automatically downloaded to my /sd/music folder -- yet still can't really access them or find them it's as if they don't have permissions, it's really messed.
[Android Software Development] ventrix24:
Hello guys,

I recently updated my ScreenOn application to a far more stable version, an app that allows you to automatically keep the screen from turning off when specific apps are running. I find it very useful, in fact a friend of mine asked me if there is a way to do it, so I build this app!

It has also support for keeping the screen on at phone calls and on charge,

I know the app design is not great, but it is simple and clean.

The logo needs a great redesign, a friend of mine is working on it.

Any suggestions / ideas?

[Android Software Development] MarkAtHome:
Not to burst your bubble, but there is a more mature app on the market called Screebl. Give it look: http://bit.ly/ipmwXn

Keep plugging, though and good luck.
[Android Software Development] ventrix24:
well, Screebl keeps the screen on too, but the usage and the whole functionality is completely different.

Screebl understands when you are using your phone only by detecting the orientation.

ScreenOn does notice if you even keep your phone in a specific angle. It does care if you are running a specific app and you want to keep the screen on.

Many of the users find it very useful when reading a webpage, or using the google maps.

Hi

I'm getting this error when I try to restore:

Error : run 'nandroid-mobile.sh restore' via adb!

So I tried to restore it through adb.

But then I get this error message:

"error: unable to mount /system, aborting
/sdcard/nandroid/SH0CJPL05354/BCDAS-20110610-1442"

The thing is it worked the first time I tried it but it won't work anymore and since I've wiped, I can't boot up at all. I can only access Recovery and the Bootloader

I always wipe before restoring and for what it's worth, I had to restore in the first place because I flashed the Bravo Sense hboot.

I'm AmonRa 2.0.1

Anyway, this is what I'm getting with adb remount:

Ok so you currently have s-off, RA recovery, access to bootloader and recovery, but no working rom and a nandroid backup that won't restore - that right?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] status_six:
If it was me I would wipe everything (I know you did already but just to be sure) download fresh version of the rom to your sd via PC, insert in phone and flash it through recovery. That gets you a functioning phone at least!

Then work on the restore issue. The backup was made with the same version of RA that you are currently using I assume? I'm not sure where to go with it really, and hope someone with more knowledge will pitch in...! :o
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] co_dominic:

Or as Rastaman over at AF put it:

So basically, flashing a new rom rebuilds the system partition and then the nand restore works.

if so, would be usefull to restore without the boot.img from nandbackup.

Roebeet, can I safely install over the 3588 Stock Enhancement and Market Fix? I hate to lose the Market but definitely don't want to deal with a brick right now. Another user indicated he/she installed the update over a similarly configured machine and it worked but then applied the Stock Enhancement and Market fix and soft bricked.

I appreciate all the work you do for other users, including me.

[G Tablet Android Development] jerdog:
Great post and good info roebeet - stickied for the immediate future.
[G Tablet Android Development] roebeet:
I haven't tested all scenarios, as there are just too many of them. I specifically picked VEGAn as I know that's a very popular ROM and I could see new stock users flashing to that.

Rule of thumb: If you are going from a 1.1-based ROM to a 1.2-based ROM (or vice versa) and use clockworkmod, you will soft-brick your device.
[G Tablet Android Development] cbay:
Great work! More coffee for Roebeet :)

I guess ... better stick to TNT Lite 4.4 for now.

I am curious about (not in any hurry tho)

I ran 3991 for a good while during the time the Wooters needed help.

I wouldn't try it until someone tests it for sure -- unless you want to

be the tester!!!??? :)

[G Tablet Android Development] roebeet:
cwm+TnT Lite 4.4 ->fixrecovery.sh -> OTA 4349. This might work. Haven't tested it yet, but I will. It worked for build 3991, so it might work with 4349.

EDIT: One test, one success. Again, YMMV.
[G Tablet Android Development] SoCal2:

No, it does not. All it does is flashes back 3588 recovery which is the recovery needed to flash between a 1.1-based and 1.2-based ROM.

[G Tablet Android Development] butchconner:
just lou,

A good start would be to read this thread. If you can do this procedure, it will NVFlash you back to stock version 2638 -- which we call bekit 1105 a lot.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=861950

Once you get to 2638, you can set up wifi and it will fairly quickly bring you an OTA Update notice and you can move up to 3588 -- and you can go where you want

from there.

[G Tablet Android Development] Dick in FC:
Well best I recall mine was running 3588--whatever upgraded when I got it a couple weeks ago.

Sae the upgrade a few minutes ago, and opted to load it.

Now sits at "home", shows current (working) time, that I have linksys, that it is charged ((86%) and that sound is on.

Nothing else works. Oh yes, there is lower right hand icon showing an open padlock.

This came up after upgrade. I've powered off and on a couple of times.

Any recommendations?

I guess I wasn't clear. I want to "uninstall" cwm from my stock 3588 OS, but don't want to completely wipe over and reinstall all of 3588.

[G Tablet Android Development] muqali:
I'd donate $50 to each dev that permanently switches to 7-zip instead of crapRar. Free as in speech and beer.
[G Tablet Android Development] roebeet:
I wouldn't take your money, but I would LOVE to move to 7z. Problem is just user support related - zip and rar are the most "well known" archivers. I've gotten flack for using rar from a few users, as Windows doesn't know how to extract them. :O
[G Tablet Android Development] TeamSpeed:
Just point them to peazip :)
[G Tablet Android Development] roebeet:
I actually got 2200, but more importantly I got 49fps in Nenamark which is highest I've ever seen, even on a mod. 3391 was 44fps and TNT Lite 4.4.0 was ~40fps.
[G Tablet Android Development] muqali:
Yea, zip does have the advantage of built in windows support for the most part. I flipped out last night, I needed to use my g/f's laptop to put 3588 on a uSD as my desktop doesn't have a reader. Some numbnuts she loaned it to had installed hamsterzip. What the fark was that? I was foaming at the mouth. Especially considering it's windows 7, AND had 7-zip already installed.
[G Tablet Android Development] TeamSpeed:
Ah, I found your recover thread, I believe I want to do the #1 option, I have downloaded the rar. I like how I can switch back and forth between different recovery modes. :)

I have to think that this is as "official" as it gets.
[G Tablet Android Development] muqali:
I got my tab back to stock 3588,then updated last night. Seemed a bit snappier, even coming from 4.4.0. I do miss the perma-back buttons on the browser though.

Patched my tablet, then in the course of reading gaming forums, found that one of my favourite games has been patched too. Victoria 2 1.3.

All that and I still haven't played with the recovery portion of the new stuff on the tab.
[G Tablet Android Development] brian_h_kim:
+1 on the "perma-back" button...that is just ridiculous...

also, fyi, the stock browser defaults to desktop mode (can change in options screen)

Build 4349 Problems

Hi all,

I'm new to this tablet flashing stuff. I posted this in another forum:

OTA Updates locked up tablet

Last night - 4/14/11 - Viewsonic sent two "over the air" notifications of software updates. I had restored my tablet to the original software, it was working like usual (out of the box). I allowed the first update to install. No problems. Tablet working ... a few minutes later ... another notice of yet another update from ViewSonic ... allowed the install. The second update installed, but locked up on the splash screen on the install reboot. Can't force it into recovery mode ... multiple reboot attempts ... powers down - powers up to Viewsonic splash screen and stays there.

I'm guessing there should be a way to acesss the tablet via the usb connected to my pc, but I can't see the tablet on my pc when I connect the usb cable.

Made the call to ViewSonic's so-called tech support. No live person, left a brief message.

Sigh ...

Any help is much appreciated.

PS. Just to clarify, my tablet had no mods, no superuser permissions, not rooted ... totally default stock when the first update applied. No problems with first update. Tablet performed well. No signs of any problems. The second update and install broke it.

##### EDIT #####

I found Peter's thread for instructions to wipe the tablet and start over. Downloaded all the correct software per instructions. Tried to boot tablet into APX mode to load the drivers for the PC ... tablet will not go into "black screen" as expected ... justs stays locked in ViewSonic splash screen. With the tablet connected to the PC, I can't see the device. No prompts looking for drivers ... nothing. Tried rebooting tablet while connected to PC ... nothing.

Any ideas anyone?

Does my scenario fall into what this thread is talking about? What is a soft brick? Is that what happened to my tablet. I can't find a way to NVFlash, since I can't get the tablet to boot into APX mode ... power on always locks up on the Viewsonic splash screen ... what should I do?

Thanks,

Ron
[G Tablet Android Development] Waspvl1:
Ron, I was having the same problem then I realised I was holding down the power and the volume up button to try to put it into apx mode, however when, from the black screen, I held down the power and volume DOWN buttons at the same time the viewsonic screen came on followed very shortly by the black apx screen. Actually I happened to have my tablet plugged into my laptop when I first did it right and at the exact same time, a notice on my windows said new hardware found. From there I was able to resume the easy steps to nvflash it.

-David
[G Tablet Android Development] mydave1:
After trying your first release of the Market Fix, I struggled and still could not get back to the original + stable 1.2.4349. The biggest thing is not able to get boot recovery to work. Always had this error (which never had before):

E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (File exists)

This error prevented the ability to wipe/factory reset.

After multiple tries of nvflash, adb, etc . . , I gave up, installed CWM, then restored to a Mod Rom based that I was using before 1.2.4349.

The same error appeared in CWM during Dalvik Cache Wipe.

I was really excited with this 1.2 based rom, and the expected release from Roebeet's new baby. Wonder if that error would harm in anyway.

So, I would suggest, unless you already done so, adding a warning that the market fix worked, but may not for others.

Dave,

P.S. Don't worry, I am fine with testing and taking risk.

HELP!!!

Guys,

How do I take off from APX mode?

I just use nvflash and recover my g tab then I turned off. when I turn on, is black screen (APX mode) and the only way to get it back is running nvflash again. It works fine until i turned off.
[G Tablet Android Development] gunajay:
I got the same screen on applying Roebeets latest market fix for 4349. However at this screen I got options to reboot or use the update.zip from the internal SD card, external SD card - sdcard2, do a data wipe etc. I chose the internal sdcard (since I had unzipped/unrared on my internal sdcard). It took that update and market worked.

Did you get these options ? My guess is Roebeet had configured the update to be searched from the sdcard2 (external card). The options can be chosen using the - and + buttons (to scroll down and up) and using the power button to select.
[G Tablet Android Development] gunajay:
At an earlier time my NVFlash didn't work and I got the same problem. What I did (and it worked for some reason) used the power and "-" button kept pressing it and leaving it. I tried this a few times and the laptop was able to recognize the device. I tried several things in desperation and this worked. It may not for you but worth a try.
[G Tablet Android Development] gunajay:
I doubt if you are in APX mode. Is your tab charged full ? The power save option kicks in early sometimes before the tab is fully booted. When the screen goes black do a couple of swipes upwards on the right side of the screen (where the new lock button is in the new updated screen) This unlocks the screen.
[G Tablet Android Development] gunajay:
Ha ha...funny since I did this by trial and error and here you are posting exactly the same solution. So I wasn't a crazy lucky after all. That is a verified solution power and - baby.

Best ROM option at this time ?

Guys,

I just ordered my GTab yesterday from Amazon ! I am very very excited and can't wait to get my hands on it ! :D

I've just seen this branching of 1.1 and 1.2 since 4/14 and my question is :

When I get my GTab next week should I update to 3558-4349 and stay stock and wait for all current ROMs to move to 1.2 based ROMs or should I just update to 3558 ignore 4349 and slap Vegan 5.1 on it ?

I am leaning towards the latter. Help out guys ! I bought the GTab only because of the confidence I have on you guys !

Thanks
[G Tablet Android Development] mydave1:
Hi, I was not aware of Roebeet's market fix. I was using the fix on post 103 of this thread. In the standard boot recovery, that error message was at the bottom of the screen. I could select any of the options, i.e. reboot, wipe, etc . . . then use power button to select, but nothing worked.
[G Tablet Android Development] Naysses:

[G Tablet Android Development] ThatGeekGuy:
Roebeet,

Is the increase in fps that important for non-gamers? Or does it offer improvements across the board in display performance (screen response, video playback, etc.)? I'll have to run Nena on my current 3588/Vegan 5.1 and see where I'm at.

I'm a recent Wooter, but have been 'rooting' around with Android since my G1. I'm happy with Vegan 5.1 right now, and will probably try Vegan Ginger this weekend. I'll let things settle down with the new VS update until y'all in the brain trust get things figured out.

Thanks for everything that you and the others do to make this decent little tablet into something really good. :)
[G Tablet Android Development] gunajay:
That post has a update that the fix is problematic, I would suggest nvflash and back to stock
[G Tablet Android Development] gunajay:
Which version?
[G Tablet Android Development] thebadfrog:
Not all Mods are going to the 1.2 branch. There will be ways to go back and forth so if you want Vegan.....go for it. You can try something else later.
