[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TEK112:
Thanks for hanging in there. This does explain a lot. I thought manually pushing modules also overwrote existing modules in the same location. I also, was not aware that those checks and balances existed for zip decompression verification. I am sorry that I cannot be technical enough to explain, but I can only elaborate on what I have experienced. I have had zips that did not pass md5 verification install. I have also had zips that did not pass verification refuse to install. Truly I have seen both. That is what was causing my confusion. I'm sorry if I seem hard headed, but like deeper explanations as everyone has their own opinions and you can't believe everything you read. Unlike others who look for a quick fix, I want to learn the why. Whatever you do, please don't judge me prematurely. I really do appreciate your help.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
That is very unlikely to happen here anyway because of the kind of filesystem that the kernel modules are on.

The /system partition is on a NAND flash device and the filesystem type is YAFFS2. On these raw NAND flash devices YAFFS2 tries to ensure that any data re-written explicitly does not write to the same location again. It's called "wear levelling" and it must to be done to prolong flash life. On raw (directly accessible) NAND flash devices, wear levelling is the filesystem's job. On other NAND flash based storage devices like SD cards and USB pen drives, the hardware does the wear levelling, so you can have standard filesystems on it.

That's probably because CWM does not do md5 verification by default. You have to turn it on.

If this happened on the same setup (I mean same version of CWM and on 2 different install runs), it would be interesting to investigate.

I really appreciate your patience with all of this. It means a lot. I'll be looking for your posts going forward as I find them extremely educational. I think I'm straight now.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rick-F:
Rather than a new thread I thought I'd post this here:

I now have "Wi-Fi Error" I'm thinking this is not hardware. It was fine just a few minuted ago.

What I did was load a new Kernel Version.

I

had

2.6.32.41 - cyanogenmod root@pershoot-ubuntu #1 (and wireless worked fine.)

and I loaded this: 2.6.32.46 - cyanogenmod root@pershoot-ubuntu #1

(I used the GB version for BL 1.1, whis is what I have now)

Other info is : Android Version 3.01 Build: GtabComb_a1.6

I was intending to flash a newer ROM, but wireless issue has me at a stop.

Any ideas to fix this?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TEK112:
This is the kernel you should have flashed:

http://droidbasement.com/gtab/kernels/2632/45/boot-cm_2632.46_gb-oc-uv-xtra-vfp_fp-083111.zip

First, redownload and reflash over itself. If wifi error persists. Extract the kernel update.zip from pershoot and locate the bcm4329.ko file and copy it to the folder system/lib/modules. You will need root explorer or something that can write to the root directory as this will require elevated privileges. Then, reboot and check.

As for another ROM, I would highly recommend FLashback 10. It is absolutely blazing and stable.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rick-F:
I re-flashed the file named boot-cm_2632.46_gb-oc-uv-xtra-vfp_fp-083111.zip

I then copied the 252.22 Kb file named bcm4329.ko to the /system/lib/modules directory.

The Wi-Fi Error condition persists unfortunately.

Would it be advisable to go ahead and flash the FlashBack 10 ROM now? Will it install a new kernel or do I need to keep trying fix the Wi-Fi "problem" first?

I do certainly appreciate your assistance!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TEK112:
I would change now.

I love Flashback. However, you must do an Option 3 and then an Option 2 to install. Those terms will make more sense when you click this link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1138100

You will need to wipe everything and start from a clean slate, along with moving to the 1.2BL. It is very easy to do, but I would first make a titanium backup of all user apps and user data (not system data). Then copy that file off to your computer for safe keeping as we will be wiping the sdcard.

Trust me, the means justify the end. First, charge till the light turns green. After install, set up your google account and check the box that says backup to google, but do not check the box that says restore apps. Then, let the tablet sit for 15 minutes and allow it to decompress and register with Google. Open the market and download your cpu overclocker if applicable (it will make the restore go faster) and then reboot. Copy the titanium backup folder back to the tablet and restore titanium apps and then perform a market fix. After you get it the way you like it, create a backup using clockworkmod.

Now enjoy!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
Did you reboot the tablet? You may, in fact, have to reboot it twice after you copy the wlan device driver module into the correct directory. You will also have to move the wlan firmware blobs into their correct directory.

Pershoot supplies the wlan device driver module and the required binary firmware blobs only for GB and Froyo ROMs. With Honeycomb, the location for both device drivers and firmware blobs have changed, so at least for now, you will have to move all of them to the correct locations after you update his kernel (no matter what the ROM--unless, of course, the ROM maintainer copies the files to the correct locations at system startup), as follows.

[HTC Sensation] howetechnical:
Hi all,

Yesterday I found a thread here somewhere that listed some different APN settings that may provide faster data than the stock T-Mo one, but after 30 minutes of searching around, I cannot find it again.

What APN settings seem to work best for you? I was getting between 5Mbps-6Mbps down on my Vibrant, and figured it should be noticeably faster on the Sensation, but it's the same (it was 3Mbps until I changed to the SIM that came with the Sensation, now it's back up to 5-6). I know T-Mo recently upgraded the towers in San Diego (where I live) to accommodate the new 42Mbps stream, but I'm still getting between 5 and 6 down.

Any replies with alternate APN settings that work better (for you) would be appreciated. Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
The 42 Mbps is theoretical speeds. Right now the fastest anyone can get is 10 & that's only with the USB modem they sell. If you're getting 5-6 you're getting pretty good speeds

sent from HTC Sensation
[HTC Sensation] Hoggles:
Just so you'll know, the Sensation is NOT capable of HSPA+ 42Mbps

.

The only thing that is capable right now from TMo is that rocket stick 3.0 for laptops etc.

5-7mb down is about as good as you'll ever get on the Sensation. In theroy it can get 14.4mbps down....in theroy...not reality.

You'll have to wait for a phone that supports the 42mbps down....even then you'd be lucky to hit a third of that. As is the same with 14.4....

The good news is that Tmo says it will make the 14.4 capable devices a little more consistent. That could negligible though....and also complete BS.

Here is their press release awhile back....

I am using Samsung Galaxy Tab, model SHW-M180S, Anycall is the network provider.

I have just updated my M180S from Froyo to Gingerbread through Samsung Kies and seen that my Tab keeps rebooting after nearly 30 minutes.

Ah. I lost tab's original charger and i have to use NEXXON charger, which is 1,5A (while Tab's orginal charger is 2A). Is there any reason relating to this charger (for Tab's rebooting) or not???

Please help me. I am now so confusing.

I wanted to start a new thread comparing which GB roms have the best battery life....
[Vibrant General] HaloMediaz:
I'm running CM7 and battery life isn't that great.
[Vibrant General] yalkowni:
^THANKS^^ battery life on Simply honey 3.8 was pretty good....
[Vibrant General] Relikk356:
This thread is a great idea, but let's put some numbers down rather then, "I get really good battery life!"

CM7: I get about 13 - 15 hours with

minimal

use on edge network.

Minimal

use for me is about 2 or 3 phone calls about 30 seconds to a minute each. Less then ten text messages, very little to no web surfing. Check weather, look at news headlines.
[Vibrant General] djluis48:
Well, i have only tried CM7 and MIUI, wich is CM7 based, and to be honest, battery life is the reason that i came back to Froyo...just terrible batery life...i can't be charging my phone every 5-6 hours. On Froyo im using Super DragonModz on Project V, and i havent charged my phone in two days, and still its @ 25%...average/min use. Until GB gets good battery life, i might not be using another GB rom as a daily driver...
[Vibrant General] ipetloudog:
My battery just went down 2% on a 40 second phone call with my lady. Simply honey. It drains bad. This is my 4th cycle.
[Vibrant General] yalkowni:
thats odd...have you tried doing a battery calibration....

anyways i get 10 hours on Revolution rom 2.0 with moderate use

moderate use -check xda couple times ,on h network always with background data ,some texting,3-4 30 second calls and ocing to 1.2ghz
[Vibrant General] ipetloudog:
Yea. I calibrated. I thought it was just a bad flash but after multiple flashes I had the same result.
[Vibrant General] Hagarza:
Blitzkrieg 18 to 20hrs moderate use 3-4 hrs screen time one.

Pretty good if u ask me.

Screenie attached 30% batt left. Calibrated two days ago.
[Vibrant General] movieaddict:
With every type of battery caliberation it takes a few cycles of charges for it to actually work. I use sgs tools and apply script and that deletes battery bin files. But doing that is not gonna take effect right away i hope u guys know that.

Im on cm7 and my battery usage is better then i expected. With me using either google music or Audio galaxy streaming for a 8 hour workshift and texting and websurfing during a lunchbreak and when that shift is done i still have about 20-to 30 % left sometimes as high as 40% But if im not streaming music and just doing normal things like playing cut the rope and web surfing and emailing, texing etc i can go on all day with out a charge. So maybe u guys have a bad battery???
[Vibrant General] ABCStore:
Simply honey 3.8 was eating up 3-4% per hour just idling and much more when actually bring used. Back to Trigger.
[Vibrant General] gamikzone:
simply honey 3.8 has really good battery life i get 19 hours moderate use with kb5 modem and OC'ed to 1.2 ghz
[Vibrant General] ali1276:
On Revolution Rom, I can get 16-17 hours of heavy use, which is flashing a new build almost every hour, going crazy on the battery life testing. But people have reported about 24 hours of battery with moderate use.
[Vibrant General] oka1:
Asgard 3.0 and 3.1 Both are giving me 13-15 hours with moderate use gaming (my kid 45min-1 hour) internet use, tweeting, email and moderate to heavy phone use (20-40 calls per day) and 1 hour of tunein radio.
[Vibrant General] lapdog101:
I got an average of 15 hours on Blitzkreig with 15-20 short (under 3 minute ) calls, 35-40 texts and an hour or so surfing.... plus a little gaming. I am at 5 hours on Asgard 3.1 and 78% battery.
[Vibrant General] jughed38:
I am running the Revolution Rom RC1 also and I'm getting about the same battery life. It's about the best that I have gotten on my phone, Bionix Final 2.1 aside. Great job, keep up the good work Ali.
[Vibrant General] MailenJokerbell:
Revolution ROM's battery life is pretty good.

Can't compare with others since I've just started flashing GB roms now (I had tried MIUI before but back then the battery sucked so much it doesnt even count)
[Vibrant General] napalm393:
thanks for starting this thread, it was just what i was looking for.

i used CM7 awhile ago and the battery life was pretty terrible so i switched back to froyo. so now i was looking around again for reports of battery life now after a couple months of waiting, and looks like its still pretty bad. i guess im still sticking with froyo.

but hey i still appreciate all the work the devs do to bring GB to the vibrant
[Vibrant General] Emama:
with all the MINIMUM use or HEAVY use

can you guys post the screen on time with it to shows how heavy/ minimum you use....
[Vibrant General] zoid_99:
I've been using Blitzkrieg for a week or so and at first it seemed really good but the last few days it has been draining fast for some reason. I also have had it reboot a couple of times while on the phone the last 2 days. I'm not sure if it's related....
[Dell Streak 7] ice10:
Hello all,

A few months ago while in Europe I as going to purchase a Euro Galaxy tab which was already voice-call ready. But then friends here on XDA advised me that due to frequency differences, 3G coverage etc, I should just buy a U.S. tab and then flash it to make calls. (which I did, & thanks again guys!!)

So now I may be able to get my hands on a stock Euro Dell Streak 7 that is also a fully working phone. Should I purchase the Euro version, or buy the gimped U.S. version & wait for the Euro phone rom to come around? Does the possible 'No 3G coverage' still apply, or would I just be able to drop my sim & go? just wondering. :confused:

Thanks!! Any info is greatly appreciated!!!

**I'm also looking into a Euro Galaxy Tab 8 & 10.
[Dell Streak 7] Z4nd4r:
I didn't think there was a Euro version of the Streak 7 that could make calls.
[Dell Streak 7] ice10:
You're right..., the on-line seller was mistaken. It was a euro Dell Streak 5 (phone) that was mistakenly advertised as a Dell Streak 7 phone. Looks like I might pick up a Streak 5 until the ATT Galaxy tab mess gets sorted out:

[EVO 4G General] hTc Arod:
There has to be more to the story. I think Sprint is tracking the rooted users that use the wireless tether and have large amounts of data downloaded. Not just the mere fact that your rooted. Just my .02 cents.

Its like modifying a car. You get a programmer to reprogram the car to perform better the manufacture i.e. Chyrsler, Ford etc cant call you up and say you cant drive our cars anymore. But if you have a warranty yes they can decline your warranty because of it. Same goes for the phone you root it and have a hardware issue that is when Sprint can decline against repairs etc.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Tubular:
Tell me about it, a bunch of true pricks for sure. The idea was great and I never considered how much execution matters but matter it does. They've already admitted that the cost of the unit barely makes even, they receive the profits from the keyboard dock. Their ****ty QC has probably led to so much returns that they're desperate to stop this cut in their profits that wouldn't be there if they didn't **** out on QC, in other words, focused on execution.

If they had told me it would take this long from the beginning I wouldn't have even bothered. Two weeks they said, it's two weeks now, so what's it really going to be? Five months?

It's not even virgin anymore, they've violated her. I guarantee when I get it back and use it, two days later the thing will die. Just never going to put up with their **** again, there's always a first time for everything. Glad I learned now rather than later.

What's funny is in the order they give, "Waiting" occurs before "Repairing" which is logical. One must have the parts to start a repair. Mine was in repairing then it went to waiting for parts. I guess in Asus crazyland the repair starts before they get the parts. Maybe they opened it up and are using the screen part of the bezel as a coaster while they wait for the parts they should have had or ordered before starting the repair.
