Regarding Market/Play Store not working

Just reverted from AOKP ICS to CM7.2.0-RC BUILD98, (due to ICS being too laggy for me, in spite of all developers efforts).

I couldn't get market working, and flashing any gapps, and wiping all data, did nothing.

I found that I had an old version of "Market_3.4.4.apk" as a backup from earlier. Sideloading this version, allowed me to connect my Gtablet to market and update to Play Store.

Another "Vending-3.5.16.apk" did not work for me, only the "Market_3.4.4.apk", as mentioned above.

I have no idea if it will help anyone out there, but now you know.
[G Tablet Android Development] nc_carol:
I have everything google working except google music.. any ideas on how to correct that? I have log if that will help
[G Tablet Android Development] lfwxb:
Used thanks so much.
[G Tablet Android Development] tury:
hello all

and thank you for all that you do ... There is a lot of passion ..

I wanted to ask a favor.

I saw that some of you have paid the gps module, I already 'have the model working with this module.

Now I put the [ROM 1.2] CyanogenMod7 rc4, runs almost everything and quickly. a real chip. only that the GPS does not work. know how to make it work?

Thank you thank you
[G Tablet Android Development] ralex76:
Hey, can someone upload this rom again? I 'd like to give a try. Thanks
[G Tablet Android Development] rob_z11:
Mine worked fine. You may have to do full wipe and go into where you can format boot and system partition as well.

Then install, and also download gapps and install kernel #41. 3.0 HC is nice, but I got the functionality of the tablet back with RC-7.1
[G Tablet Android Development] couchmonkey:
Just a question, if I'm updating from 7.0.3 do I lose all my apps/data?

DSPManager Crashing

Is anyone else getting forecloses from DSP causing audio issue either speed up audio or totally broken audio playback
[G Tablet Android Development] gwynethgh:
Regarding the DSP. From posts at on the Cyanogen board that is normal for now. Remove DSP with Titanium backup and reboot. That should fix the current problem . See the gtab section of the Cyanogen board for more info.
[G Tablet Android Development] Linuxslate:
At least on 7.03, if you accidentally launch DPS, just clear it's data, and everything is fine again. You only need to remove it if you think you are going to accidentally launch it.
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
I have re-packaged the CyanogenMod 7.1.0 RC1 ROM zip for the 1.1 & 1.2 bootloaders with some other changes like assert checks removed, updated Google Talk, Superuser 3, etc... Download links in the first post of this thread.
[G Tablet Android Development] midnightslide:
Used your repackaged DL. Boots up great and seems pretty snappy... but... whenever the screen times out, it won't return from sleep... At all. If I am quick enough, the screen will turn back on without the lock screen, but... if I wait about 3-4 seconds, I have to reboot the g-tab just to get it to turn back on. What gives?

Triple checked that it was for the right BL (1.1)

I did a full wipe/factory reset prior to installation. Twice, in fact.

Cleared Cache

Cleared Dalvik

Cleared Cache again.

Nada.

Also, the USB only shows debugging when connected, and won't connect to my PC.
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
@midnightslide had the same problem the first time it booted up... even the "official" CM ROM had this problem... but it did start up sometimes...

Try enabling the lockscreen (from Tablet Tweaks in Settings)... never had this problem after I enabled the lockscreen...
[G Tablet Android Development] Mantara:
You can also turn wifi to always be on and change the it to unsleep with the volume keys. This reduced sleepdeath for me. Funny thing is with me sleepdeath happened more with lockscreen on. Test it out and see what works best. Its sux because with froyo roms when sleepdeath happens it boots again in like 30 seconds. GB boot is 5X longer, so whittling down the number of sleepdeaths is important. Wish GB didn't do that crazy app check when booting
[G Tablet Android Development] smnc:
USB keyboard support seems to be missing from this release.

VEGAn-tab Ginger Edition (Cyanogenmod 7.0.1 based) had USB keyboard support.

Sent from my Viewsonic G-Tab running CyanogenMod 7.1 rc1
[G Tablet Android Development] MPTP:
Disabling the screen off/on animation should resolve this issue. I had the same problem and that fixed it for me.
[G Tablet Android Development] gtlifter:
is pershoots newest 1.4ghz kernel included in this? I saw you removed the link for it
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
These do not include the latest pershoot kernel... it is the 2.6.32.41 kernel... but yes, it is a 1.4GHz kernel...
[G Tablet Android Development] cheko:

No complaints @craigacgomez and thanks for the repacking its running really nice not one force close Hulu+ Netflix all open with out any issues

@gwynethgh and @linuxslate thanks for the heads up both fixes help me out as well

freeze issues

First of all thanks for your contribution to the community OP. As pretty stable as this build is I do have some freezing while watching videos. Specifically .avi formats. When I scroll around or watch videos for five min. It freezes. Then after rebooting it occasionally freezes while scrolling through the app drawer. Upon some research I suspect memory intensive apps freeze the device however running the same type of stuff on my phone runs fine. Is there something I need to tweak on this device (g tablet) to avoid these issues?
[G Tablet Android Development] alanhzl:
First, thanks for repacking this.

i do have a few issues and try to see if anyone else is experiencing the same things.

I can't seem to get the the lock screen to kick in, it only shows the lock screen once during boot up, I do have a pattern setup. And have lock screen enable ( disable lockcreen uncheck in tablet tweeks), I also have screen on and off animations turned off.

Second issue is google navigation keep disappearing after each boot, I have to reinstall google maps to get it to come back.

Otherwise the rom is very stable, and smooth.

I have nv flashed back to bl 1.1, wiped everything and re-partitioned the internal sd card also.

P.s can someone point me to the camera fix, I thought I saw it somewhere a few days ago but have lost track of it since.

Thanks in advance.
[G Tablet Android Development] gwynethgh:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?app=core&module=attach&section=attach&attach_id=4334

for camera fix
[G Tablet Android Development] alanhzl:
Thanks, but it says attachment could not be found.
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
Well, honestly, considering the video playback for Gingerbread is a "hack" and that we are actually using Froyo libs, I expect that it is not uncommon for the tablet to freeze with any video format other that standard definition mp4... SD videos of some formats might play fine... but high quality videos may not.

Not sure about the freeze after reboot part, but I'll try to reproduce it and see what I can do...
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
Regarding the "camera fix", I am testing it out thoroughly and will make an update package for the same if things work as expected.
[G Tablet Android Development] hoyitzpnoiboi:
thanks

thanks for the response dev. i guess that makes sense. Well if you do plan to recreate my issues i am running sd card boost + oc @ 1400 i use the app "qqplayer" to run avi. files and if it contributes to your investigation i have advanced task manager running in the background. thanks in advance.
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
I've tested the "camera fix" discussed about... the fix is by "kekinash" from the CyanogenMod forums... and all credit goes to him... I simply repackaged this as an update zip. Please note that this fixes the still pixelated still pictures issue, but the image is rotated 90 degrees... something with the g-sensor and CM7... haven't had time to dig in... also, video does not work... this only fixes the still image pixelation... see first post for download link...
[G Tablet Android Development] cheko:
Camera Fix

Just Ran the fix and it does seem to help out, the system seems to be running well. Saw just one force close from gtalk, after I completed the cam fix rebooted and it didn't come back.

Has any one noticed ADW breaks if you add more than five shortcuts icons to the secondary buttons (the ones you flick to view) the whole dock expands beyond the screen pane which is just visually unpleasant and makes the drawer unstable. leading to foreclosing when the screen rotates, I had to remove the icons from the dock and then clear data from settings area.
[G Tablet Android Development] HostileJava:
What does the camera fix actually do. My camera is working fine. Also, did anyone use Pandora on this ROM? The first song plays fine for me but then the next song plays at half speed. If I skip it the song after that will play fine but then it goes back to half speed for the next song. I do have the Manufacturer changed to HTC in the build.prop to fix the Netflix playing at double speed.
[G Tablet Android Development] forepj:
Netflix Squirrels

Thanks for the Repackaged ROM. Working well except for the Netflix Squirrels. Tried Nexus S build.prop but still getting high pitched audio. Suggestions?
[G Tablet Android Development] alanhzl:
For me the fix was simply editing the original buld.prop with rootexplorer.

Look for the line "ro.product.manufacturer =malata"

replace it with this

"ro.product.manufacturer=HTC"
[G Tablet Android Development] forepj:

Does video chat work with the repackaged ROM?

GTalk

Can anyone confirm whether they have Gtalk audio & video working on this rom? If yes then kindly expound on how!
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
I've updated the OP...

1. added dev-host mirrors created by @kushdeck... and this is recommended... no waiting time, no download restrictions...

2. updated the kernel add-on to display the latest 2.6.32.43 by pershoot

With regards to the video camera, I will try to spend some time to figure out if I can fix the stagefright issues...

And I believe video on GTalk may not work since the library used (libtalk_jni.so) is statically compiled for ARMv7+NEON... and AFAIK, the Tegra 2 processor here is ARMv7 without NEON... so the I believe the chances are slim...

Info regarding the GTalk with video & ARMv7+NEON is here

And here is the excerpt:

RE:2.3.5

Hello..any word on getting 2.3.5 versions or updates for our gtablets?
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
I will work on a repackaged update with the latest CM7 2.3.5 code-base... should have one up soon
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
Update coming soon...

Feature of this update:

1. Based on CyanogenMod 7.1 Nightly Build 21 (Changelog) [thanks to the CM team]

2. Android 2.3.5

3. Google Apps to 2.3.5

4. Android Market 3.1.3

5. Superuser 3 beta 3 (since beta 4 force closes) [thanks to ChainsDD]

6. Switchable internal storage & SD card mount locations [thanks to the CM team]

7. QuickOffice Tablet from Notion Ink Adam

8. Google Music 3.0.1 with Google Music cloud sync

9. Fix for pixelated still photographs from stock camera [thanks to gojimi]

10. Kernel 2.6.32.46 [thanks to pershoot]

11. Separate releases for bootloaders 1.1 & 1.2

12. New Google Talk with voice & video (only voice works) [thanks to britoso]

13. Ubuntu system fonts [thanks to 42turkeys]

Known issues:

1. Due to lack of official drivers, hardware acceleration for video is flaky & may not work for may videos. Use a player with software rendering for videos like MX Video Player or Mobo Player.

2. Due to lack of official drivers, the video camera is not functional. Still pictures work.

3. Sometimes audio may quite suddenly stop. Plug in a headset and then remove it to fix the problem.

Depending on the nature of the latest commits to the CM git, I may release another update soon...
[G Tablet Android Development] drisner:
Do Hulu+ & Netflix both work with this ROM? The compatibility with these two apps is what has kept me on the older CM7.
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
Well, if it worked on the older version of CM7... it should work on this... unfortunately, I can't test them since I don't have NetFlix or Hulu+ subscriptions and since I'm not in the US right now!
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
The 2.3.5 release will be delayed a bit... yeah, I do have a working release... but I'm delaying it to test out if TnT 1.2-5274 proprietary libs, bins, etc make a difference to the performance... This 5274 build in a best 1.2 build IMHO... so let's hope this makes a difference!!
[G Tablet Android Development] Sharpe351:
I dont think you can get too much out of it for CM7. You may want to see about porting hardware acceleration if possible. It wont be easy. Btw, thanks for doing this. I really like CM7.
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
Just thought I'd give it a shot... I just thought I'd see if it made any difference from a stability perspective... I really wish there were some easy hooks to use the nvidia OMX codecs provided... I'm treading on water when it comes to drivers!
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
Added links for 2.3.5 release... for bootloader 1.1 & 1.2... check first post for links and info!!
[G Tablet Android Development] Coldfirex:
Thanks!

just upgraded from a CM7 build (8-8). Is there a way to lower the DPI back? Its a little small for me. :)

Also, I noticed that Market is blank when I pull up My Apps. Is that happening with anyone else? I tried wiping cache and giving it time, but nothing yet.
[G Tablet Android Development] schremer:
BL1.2

Just got the following error:

assert failed: write_raw_image.....

Any clue? Thanks
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
To change the DPI to the original setting, install this app PropEditor http://code.google.com/p/net-widgetron-propeditor/

First click the "Backup" button, then click "Open" button, in the file browser which opens, tap ".." to go the root, then tap "system", the tap "build.prop". Look for "ro.sf.lcd.density". Tap it and set your desired density (160 is default for CM). Then press the "Menu" button and tap "Save". Reboot.

Regarding the Market, try clearing Market cache & data, reboot and the see of it works.
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
Let me see what I can do to fix this. It looks like the boot image might be big for your partition structure.

[G Tablet Android Development] Sharpe351:
How's it coming? Is it ready for me to torture test yet? I want to try yet another ROM. Did you get anywhere with the hardware acceleration?
[G Tablet Android Development] sixstrings78:
Thanks, im checking this out now
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
Well, I tried out a couple of things which sent the whole ROM into a spinning frenzy of FC and dumps... the nvidia OMX codecs available are just not GB friendly in any way... I haven't given up yet... but I just released a "stable" 2.3.5 for now. Now I start digging into OMX and stagefright!!!
[G Tablet Android Development] Sharpe351:
Good luck with it. Let me know via PM if you need a Guinea pig for testing.
[G Tablet Android Development] viskon:
Trying out this rom. First impressions are that is smooth and stable. Nice work!
[G Tablet Android Development] chubb16:
Great repackage! So far so good.

After playing with it a little bit seems a little laggy and choppy compared to the cm nightly.

Love the extra real estate and the market works flawless. Just seems a little laggy...

I am on the 1.1 bootloader.
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
OK... help me understand this better... This is, for the most part, a CM7 nightly build.

What exactly is laggy? general operation lag, home/launcher lag or something a bit more specific...

If it is home/launcher lag, try the performance setting for that. Settings -> CyanogenMod settings -> Performance settings -> Lock home in memory.

Also, if you like, you could try out an app like AutoKiller Memory Optimizer. Use a preset like Moderate or Optimum.

Your response will help me make this a better ROM.
[G Tablet Android Development] chubb16:
Basically general operation. Launching apps, transitions, even scrolling seems jerky and laggy. I formatted the system partion and flashed the zip then wiped the cache and dalvik cache. I have to tell you I did not wipe the data but I was running the latest nightly anyway.

Could me being on the 1.1 bootloader and having the libs and other parts from the latest 1.2 viewsonic build have something to do with it? What are the advantages to the 1.2 bootloader? None I have seen that is why I never bothered to change it.
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
Let me switch back to 1.1 and give the ROM a thorough re-test... also re-read my earlier post I modified it... something might help you.

Regarding the 1.2 bootloader, it is simply the new development branch for the stock ROMs. All newer ROMs are based on the 1.2 branch so for a matter of fact, it is updated when compared to the 1.1 branch. From the looks of things, all newer stock ROMs will be 1.2 based.

[GUIDE] CM7 Repack BL1.2 ONLY Install Instructions

Hi all, been on VeganTab 7.1.0 for a few weeks, had to many issues with Hulu & Dolphin, so I'm trying this version of CM7. Hulu was playing but after the 1st commerical the video would freeze but audio kept playing.

So here's how I installed BL1.2 CM7.1 Repacked without using ADB (fixrecovery.sh or fixcwmrecovery.sh):

1 - go to this link and follow the Double Code Red section but stop after step 4

2 - go to this link and get the BL 1.2 5274 file:

http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/21602-another-tapntap-uat-update-this-time-its-build-12-5274/

3 - Flash the BL 1.2 5274, NOTE: flashing this file will set your recovery to back to stock (u loose CWM)

4 - get attached "gtab.cwm.3028.1.2.branch.rev5.rar", unzip it and move both "recovery" & "undate.zip" to the root of your gtab.

5 - Reboot to Recovey mode (Volume Up & Power btn). This will load Clockwork mod. NOTE: if you tab doesnt reboot and stays on black window with a white wrench, give 3- 6 mins, then shutdown by holding the power button.

6 - Reboot to Recovey mode, you should have Clockwork Mod (nice and orange)

7 - flash "CyanogenMod7.1-RC-Build21-REPACK-BL1.2.zip" thru CWM

8 - wipe Data/Factory Reset.

Enjoy.

Ps If you feel i got any thing misrepresented, I'll be more than happy to fix...thanks ROM, I might test this rom, with the "gtab.nvflash.1.2.branch.20110508_with_cwmv3028" which loads "1.2 Branch (4349)" later in the week.:rolleyes:
[G Tablet Android Development] galapogos01:
Nice ROM... two quick questions:

1. How do I change back to the default font?

2. Does youtube video work for anyone?

Jason

edit: worked out #1, any help with youtube?
[G Tablet Android Development] galapogos01:
So, I found the 2.1.6 youtube apk which actually works on the gtab. If anyone needs it let me know or just look on google.

Jason
[G Tablet Android Development] SoNic67:
Installed ver 1.1.

Market is not working: "Your device is not compatible with this item". Even installed apps shows that!

And... WTF is "Market Apps Installer - com.teamdouche.pacman" and what is doing on my tablet???
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
Well, what apps did you install which have this problem? How did you install these apps?

And regarding Market Apps Installer, it's a feature of CyanogenMod which sets up the Google Apps on the ROM... http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/index.php/Google_Apps#Pacman
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
For all those getting the "assert failed: write raw image (tmp/boot.img boot)" error... I have uploaded new version of the ROMs for both bootloaders which should solve this problem...

If you've have some lagginess in the bootloader 1.1 ROM, I have reverted the proprietary libs and binaries to ones in the 1.1-3588 release. You try to see if this makes a difference...

Bootloader 1.2 ROM has the new 1.2-5274 proprietary libs and binaries...
[G Tablet Android Development] SoNic67:
All of the apps in Market say the same. If I clear the Market cache it works for a while then it stops again. I saw that it is present in the original 7.1 too (on the specific thread).

I am on 1.1 branch still...with G Harmony. Maybe I will take the time to switch to 1.2.
[G Tablet Android Development] schremer:
Thanks a lot. Just a quick question: Any reason why my SDCARD mounted as emms?

Normal path would be much better:)

Regards.
[G Tablet Android Development] jhermit:
Angry birds and word with friends do this.
[G Tablet Android Development] SoNic67:
Well, I did the jump to 1.2 and looks like this time no problems with the market. Of course that might be also because I wiped everything in process.
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
Actually, starting with Gingerbread, Android officially supports internal storage along with an external SD card. The default mount point for internal storage is /mnt/emmc (yes, Android default) and the external SD card is mounted as /mnt/sdcard...

If you need to switch the mount points, see the tips and tweaks section in the first post!
[G Tablet Android Development] AlexFG:
I also had some problems downloading apps but as soon as I cleared the market cache everything went back to normal.

Other than that the only problem I have with all these CM Based ROMs is the crappy wifi reception, but that's not particular to this platform; I've had the same issue on all my android devices.
[G Tablet Android Development] B3ATTY:
Can I clarify something - Post 1 says that GTalk video is working, but around Page 6 it seems to not be working. Can anyone confirm which it is?

Thanks
[G Tablet Android Development] craigacgomez:
Well, I did mention it in the Know Issues section... but just to clarify again... No video camera or video chat app works on Gingerbread for the GTablet... GTalk video will not work... I included the new GTalk app since voice chat does work...

Also, just to set things straight... even if we do get video working on Gingerbread... GTalk video will not work until Google release a "universal" version... the video library for GTalk (libtalk_jni.so) is compiled for ARMv7 processors with NEON optimisations... Tegra is ARMv7 without NEON optimisations...

At the present state, the same thing applies for Skype video... the current version works only for ARMv7 with NEON...
[G Tablet Android Development] B3ATTY:
Ok - thanks for clarifying.
