A101it

installed zimage and initramfs july 5th release from http://download.openaos.org/bubu/gen8/

installed cm7 image from http://download.openaos.org/bubu/gen8/android/ - july 8th release

i've followed this tutorial http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1153522 twice and the tutorial at arctablets once. so perhaps that will reproduce the problems...

i'm unable to move files from "/sdcard" to "/" on my tablet. is it possible that this could pose the problem?
[Gen8 Android Development] woti23:
in booted tablet

- sdcard doen't get automounted.

- programs (ie titanium backup) see /mnt/storage (first partition on internal NAND block1, vfat) as external storage (sdcard).

- internal storage is the size of the openaos-gingerbread.img on /dev/loop0 (ext4 mounted)

therefor "/" is the root of your imagefile, and /sdcard is not mounted
[Gen8 Android Development] woti23:
i still don't know what you are talking about and what should be a bug?

your pictures at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15798993&postcount=336 that you brought as example

have nothing at all to do with being colored inverted like in the two png's above.

like in newRGB (R,G,B) = 255 (R,G,B) - oldRGB (R,G,B) that would be a colour conversion

just the google searchbox has an other colour as you expect, so what is the problem?

if you are talking about "inverted": than everything where others have black would be white at your screen and ALL colors would be inverted, everywhere, what color does your googlemail icon have, i'd expect red?
[Gen8 Android Development] leijae:
http://dev.openaos.org/ticket/200#comment:2 see "Attachments"

reds are blue, and yellows are greenish/blue. the photographs stored on my tablet, but viewed in gingerbread gallery, look like negatives from a roll of film
[Gen8 Android Development] woti23:
i made the two pictures (rgb and rgb-inverted) in gimp and posted it (did not want to do it anonymous and expected a login somewhere, anyway there was none, pictures were in until i could even write the text message ;-)

now i understand, but your video on youtube and the other link you posted in the other gingerbread cm7 thread don 't have it, how comes?
[Gen8 Android Development] woti23:
this could also be a hardware failure, reduced or totaly missing red from RGB (red - green - blue) - how is the archos logo at the beginning of boot - is it ok? - or the white screen in the recovery menu - is it full white?

when does the color bug start - allready before the boot or only after the home screen appears?
[Gen8 Android Development] leijae:
the video i had posted was only 30 seconds long and didn't really show details of the img...

i'll post a new one tonight so you can see what I'm talking about.

Sorry I didnt post the video, it was my anniversary with my wife. But, I did manage to snap a couple of photos. The blue background is the gingerbread, the "wood" color background is froyo.
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
Does this problem occur when you flash the latest initramfs and zImage from http://download.openaos.org/bubu/gen8/ and the latest gingerbread from http://download.openaos.org/bubu/gen8/android/

Using the following tutorial http://dev.openaos.org/wiki/SettingUpMultiRootGen8

Maurice
[Gen8 Android Development] leijae:
yes it does happen when i use those files.
[Gen8 Android Development] leijae:
archos logo has no problems, yes white recovery screen is completely white... except the black text. bug begins after "android" boot logo for gingerbread, so after the home screen appears... or exactly when the home screen appears.
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
What I meant is to start from scratch and follow the tutorial I mentioned, so we know that you didn't messed up things while installing other apps or follow a tutorial we can't support.

Maurice :cool:
[Gen8 Android Development] leijae:
Ok I'll do it and report back.
[Gen8 Android Development] leijae:
Ok I started all over again, and it does the same thing.
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
Hmm strange, nobody else reported it. I have a A101IT gen8, even bubu has one next to his other gen8 devices :).

Just to be absolutely sure, you only installed openaos multiboot and gingerbread. No urukdroid or anything else.

It is just hard to solve, if we can't reproduce the problem ourselves it is almost impossible to troubleshoot.

Can you start the terminal on gingerbread, type "uname -a" and post the output.

Maurice :cool:
[Gen8 Android Development] jackson0829:

http://dev.openaos.org/ticket/202

I created a ticket for it. However it can take some time before it gets solved. Most important bug we want to get rid of for now is that the device doesn't come out of deep sleep. Those little things we will try to solve in between the big ones :)

Maurice
[Gen8 Android Development] leijae:
http://dev.openaos.org/wiki/AndroidInstall_CM7_Gingerbread I followed this walkthrough, using windows, my a101it mounts like a regular hard drive at this step:

"Go into recovery by holding down the "volume down" button and switch on your archos. Keep the button pressed until you see the white recovery menu. Goto "Recovery system" --> "Repair System" --> "Start USB MSC". Your Archos internal memory will now be mounted on your PC. "

So I have to go into command line and use "mountvol D:/ \P"

it doesn't show up as a removable media, so there is no "Very Important: Safely umount/remove the archos from your PC. "

What to do?

also, my reds still aren't working... has anyone come up with a fix for it?
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
If you are on windows, your archos internal memory turns up as a regular hard drive after you selected "Start USB MSC". If yes then this means it is mounted on your pc. No need for "mountvol D:/ \P" .

After you are done copying the image and renaming it. Safely remove the device. Just to be sure windows isn't still writing to your device and screw up the internal memory.

???

Maurice :cool:
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
The issue still stands, no one said it is already solved. If it is, the ticket 202 will be updated. There is also alot of other things that don't work, so be patient. We don't have the time to resolve them all at once. We all have families and busy jobs. To give you an idea: I work 10 to 12 hours a day most of the time even more and also often in the weekends. When I come home I have a wife and 9 year old kid that also needs some attention. After that I get some time to work on gingerbread.

Maurice :cool:

To get you all a little update on progress for the next release "bull":

- Fixed for gen7/8 (deep) sleep issue no workaround needed anymore. Thanks to tieto guys

- Fixed for gen7/8 speakers turning on/off when headphone gets plugged/unplugged. Thanks to illifant

- Fixed for gen7/8 browser crash when going into settings.

[Gen8 Android Development] leijae:
I fixed the issue with my missing reds. Now, I'm using Anoa, but when I run browser it freezes and the tablet just reboots after about 30 seconds
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
Can you give me a logcat output from the crash, so I know what could be causing it?

You can use adb to connect to your archos.

Maurice :cool:
[Gen8 Android Development] airwolf1544:
I have 2 Accesspoints from Netgear. One is WEP the other is WPA/WPA2 encrypted. Anoa only finds the AP with WEP. Anoa can't see the second one with WPA/WPA2.
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
Can you see what channel your WPA/WPA2 encrypted access point is using?

I have 2 WPA/WPA2 access points here and they both work.

Maurice :cool:
[Gen8 Android Development] leijae:
I installed Android SDK, which is supposed to have the ADB built in? Anyhow, I'm pretty much not sure how to test it. In fact, when I connect the Archos running Anoa, my PC (Win7) Doesn't recognize that there's anything connected.
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
Well it has been along time since I set it up on windows 7 (now using linux), but I think the steps below should cover it. There is also some explaining on the archos site see below.

The steps:

1) Donwload the windows driver from ftp://support.archos.com/ARCHOS it/ADB/

2) Install it.

3) Connect your archos and start gingerbread anoa.

4) Open the command prompt and cd to your "SDK dir\platform-tools"

5) Enter the command

.\adb usb

6) You probably will get an error.

7) Enter the command

echo 0x0e79 >> "%USERPROFILE%\.android\adb_usb.ini

"

8) Enter the command

.\adb usb

9) Enter the command

.\adb shell

You would be now on the command on your archos.

10) Enter

logcat

You should now see the debugging info. press ctrl C to exit and type exit to exit the shell.

Hope this helps you :)

Hmm no, you are missing adb_usb.ini. Maybe following command would help to create the file adb_usb.ini:

cd "SDK dir\tools" and then enter

.\android update adb

The adb_usb.ini should be in C:\Users\<your user name here>\.android\

The android update adb command should provide you with an abd_usb.ini file with contents

Just add 0x0e79 to your adb_usb.ini and your good to go. :)

You can instead of echo it in also edit the file with notepad. Just put it on a new line below the rest.

Maurice :cool:
[Gen8 Android Development] leijae:
ok got it working now i'll let you know
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
Try to run android adb update again maybe it needs to read the adb_usb.ini file again.
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
Hmm, browser crashes is probably, because we are using JSC javascript engine in anoa instead of v8. We did that, because v8 gave us a kernel crash wich resolved in a reboot.

When all is well, we change back to v8 in the next release "bull" which would solve that issue.

Market crash could be the same reason, however if I remember correctly the debug info looked different for the browser crash. Did you take any special steps which resulted in this crash, so I could try to reproduce. Also you did the market install as was described on http://dev.openaos.org/wiki/Android...ngGingerbreadthefirsttimeandinstallgoogleapps ?

BTW thanks for the logcat output, it is much more meaningfull for us then just saying it crashed. :)

Ahh that is the browser settings crash, you get that when you goto the settings of the browser or not?

The fix for that will be in the next release "bull".

I meant another browser crash, but I only had it when using firefox or dolphin on certain pages, it is related to the javascript engine JSC, but will also get fixed when we are using v8 again.

If you find more things that are not working or create crashes, please let us know.

[Gen8 Android Development] leijae:
no i got this just by opening browser. like i mentioned in the post before, it will 25% of the time. i haven't tried the settings in logcat yet.

when i boot into anoa, i get "google framework services" crash i followed i think the process is com.google.gapps or something like it. i followed the tut on installing gapps over from the openaos.org site. i dont know...

do we have a release projection for bull?
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
Well looking at the logcat, it seems to be the issue from the browsersettings which I solved for bull. I didn't however had it when just opening the browser.

We don't have a date yet when we will release bull. Bubu wanted to rewrite part of the multiboot and make it work on gen7 too. I will ask how far he is when I get a hold of him.

Hi everyone,

After I semi-bricked my TF last time, I followed the "nvflash back to stock" thread to restore to 8.4.4.5. The OTA didn't work (and, as it turns out, neither did Asus's SOP for flashing off the SD card), so I wanted to flash back to Asus's original 8.4.4.5 as downloaded off the Asus website to see if that would help. I went into CWM and tried to flash the Asus's original firmware. I got the following errors:

--Installing: /sdcard/US_epad-user-8.4.4.5.zip

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Installing update...

I think you might need the stock recovery to flash the stock 8.4.4.5. If you have a repackaged 8.4.4.5, then you can probably flash that via CWM. Someone would have to convert the stock rom to a flashable format. I thought I saw a thread with repackaged, flashable roms.

I think that would do it. I will look for that thread because I remember seeing it as well.

Thanks,i did flash Glitch HL kernel,and latest nightly,but i have some questions,can i do gps fix later(after flashing kernel),and i found that my cpu`s max is still set on 1000Mhz,like in stock cm7 stock kernel,so is it necessary to change it(for example to 1200Mhz)for better battery life?

And again thanks a lot for posting this,you hepled me greatly and spared a lot of time in searching.
[Vibrant Android Development] jwleonhart:
You can do the GPS fix whenever you please. Just remember that everytime you flash a new nightly of CM7 you're going to have to apply the GPSD file again... Everytime you flash a new nightly it wipes all the old system data, GPSD is unfortunatly one of the casualties.

What program are you using for adjust your CPU frequency? You should be using this:

-Voltage Control : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=829731

If you want to gain more battery life you shouldn't be increasing to 1.2GHz, that will not help your battery life any.

If anything leave it at the stock 1GHz frequency and apply undervolt to the processor... of course you will have to do some testing because undervolting can cause stability and lockup/reboots.

Here are my undervolt settings, so far no locks-up on this combo for about a week now:

Here are my settings in Voltage Control

1300: 1400mv -0mv = 1400mv

1200: 1350mv -0mv = 1350mv

1000: 1250mv -25mv = 1225mv

800: 1200mv -50mv = 1150mv

400: 1050mv -75mv = 975mv

200: 950mv -75mv = 875mv

100: 950mv -100mv = 850mv

Im running High Leak, using this daily at 1300mhz no problems yet... Running a good movie on your phone, like an mkv file will really let you know if your settings are stable.. I've found undervolting anything over the stock freq. doesn't seem to be stable.

Does this help you any??

No, you can install a kernel on whatever nightly of CM7 you want. It's just best to have the latest nightly. I do remember hearing some of the earlier nightlys of CM7 like lower 30's were having trouble with different kernels...

Just remember that if you flash a new nightly you will have to fix the GPS and Kernel again though.

Everytime you update to a new nightly it deletes everything unfortunatly.

quick question, when I try deleting the old GPSD file in order to move the new one it says I can not delete the file, then when I try to overwrite it, ES file explorer says I can not move the GPSD file. How exactly am I supposed to replace the old file with the new? I already have angry GPS installed and I also have installed the bali kernel.
