[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abo_mara7:
Hello guys,

I've recieved my GTablet today, so I installed this HC rom through recovery. I've made factory reset and cleared the cashe before booting, the only problem I've faced is that I cannot log onto the market. It says: "An error occured while retrieving information from server". I've removed google account, repleace it, factory recet, but it still giving the same error. However, I can browse and download apps from market using the browser, but it would be better to get the market app working. Any ideas or thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

I've run into a couple issues with this from today. First thing is that after I've used an ear piece all day and put the tablet to sleep and picked it up to use later that night, the tablet plays nothing but static when i wake it. I have to restart it to get it to stop.

The other issue i found is when i use the app called Dogcatcher to listen to my podcasts at work. When the screen goes to sleep (in this case after 5 minutes) the program stops working. The only thing i found in the settings were to keep screen on but nothing about stopping playback.

As always great ROM and my daily driver since I've owned this tablet.

Bluetooth Tethering

Hi all, newbie here, but checking this thread didn't answer my question...

I currently have the 7.2 flashed on my 1.2BL gtab. I'm attempting to tether to my iPhone via bluetooth. On the stock froyo build, the iphone would just say the device was incompatible.

On the 7.2 ROM, I can pair the devices, activate the tethering on the gtab. Turning on the personal hotspot on the iphone shows that there is a connection, however the gtab doesn't seem to be able to utilize the network connection.

Has anyone else had success with this?

Thanks for all the work on this, btw, I really like how much better this is than the stock ROM

Thanks in advance

Is it possible to disable the headphone jack via software?

I dropped the tablet with a headphone plugged in and it broke the jack. Not a problem for me as it plays sound via the speakers (was on Vegan-Tab 7.0.0). But since upgrade to Flashback 7.2 it says "audio device plugged in" and will not play sound via speakers.

Alternately if its possible to enable both headphone jack and speakers at the same time it might work too.

I did open it up but the hardware cannot be fixed easily. Thanks much.

This ROM is awesome. I was using 7.0 with no problem at all. However when I tried to flash 7.1 the gtablet will just be stuck at the Android 3.0 (with lots of Android dices) screen for longest time. I then flash back to 7.0 and booting up is no problem. Now that 7.2 is out, I tried to flash 7.2, it is stuck at the Android 3.0 screen again. I tried to data wipe, cache wipe, but still same. Anyone experiencing this issue??
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gruuk:
Pretty much the same happened to me. You may want to use install option #3 on the first post of the thread; that's what I had to do to get it working.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tlbardelljr:
Gruuk is correct #3 will probably work. It is likely you need to increase partition size.

Does USB stick work with this ROM?

I've tried inserting a USB stick (FAT32 formatted) in the USB port of my G Tablet, but it doesn't seem to be recognized. Is this supported?

Correction: The USB stick is recognized (it shows up under Settings -> Storage as "Usbdisk1"), but it doesn't appear to actually get mounted. Do I need to create a mount point for it under /mnt (there's no "Usbdisk1" folder there)? Or is there something else I need to do?

Update: After creating /mnt/usbdisk1, the USB stick mounts and I can see its contents in ES File Explorer. However, it doesn't mount to /mnt/usbdisk1, it mounts to /mnt/usb_storage/Drive1. Perhaps it worked this time because I had to mount / and /system as read-write instead of read-only (so I could create the mount point in /mnt). But now I can't change / and /system back to read-only in ES File Explorer (it gives me an error "failed to unmount"). Can anyone shed some light on this?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pepethecat:
Excellent. :)

Did you do anything special or did it just work? I have a couple of different ones that pair but the sound continues to go through the speakers.

Edit:

Sorry for being such a doofus. I was actually on a different ROM. I loaded Flashback 7.2 and it works wonderfully. DOH!

Thanks so much for such an excellent ROM. I don't think I'll be changing from this one anytime soon.

Thank you!

I wanted to say thank you for all the hard work and consistent development of this rom. From alpha 5.3 I have been upgrading and using the rom and now that it is alpha @ 7.2, beta 7.1 the rom is smooth and I know is nearing stable. Great job and you have made my tablet a great electronic device that I use daily.

Showing my 12.92gb free a Usb storage?? Cant install apps??

Hey guys, first post in this thread. I got 7.1 up and running via copy zip to root and install from sd, then immediately updated to 7.2 via partitioning sd, mount usb, copy over and apply update.zip with success and WOW what a nice set-up! Love it!

But of course i did run into a few problems im hoping someone can help me with.

1) gmail wasnt syncing correctly but I eventually figured it by signing out then back in.

and

2) Under Usb storage saying Total 12.92gb Avail 12.89gb and Internal Storage Total 1.88gb Media 26.73mb Apps 227mb Avail 1.63mb and Micro SD Total 12.92gb

Avail 12.89gb?????? Sholdnt internal storage have all the open memory, the 12.92 gb or whatever? I say this about the storage because 2 things are happening that dont seem right regarding this:

First thing I installed was adobe Flash with no problem

Then tried to install Opera and would not let me. In the Market in my apps, first it was listed under "Not installed", now I go to Manage my applications in settings it is listed under "downloaded" If I click on it from there, I have a choice to Unistall or move to usb storage)tried this to see what would happen but it failed)

I tried a few more apps and they are not installing or not in app tray either..

Also, in the bottom right task bar, there is an icon of an sd card, I click on it and it says "External Storage inserted" Micro sd with a little usb icon and a red X next to it. I clicked this a few hours ago by accident and I think it unmounted my sd but not sure. I had to reinstall.:confused:

Lastly, in the bottom left, its says Safe Mode, I dont think I noticed this before. Just want to I make sure i mention everything because this rom is SWEET, and want to stick with it.:confused:

Hope you guys can help me...fingers crossed:confused:

Still worried about how much room on my sd I have left, there is no way I have only 1.63mb available, right? Please tell me It saying 1.63gb left under Interal storage is not what I have left? Does it just say that but use up the 13gb or whatever is left?

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SScorpio:
I decided to give Honeycomb a try today so I went about updating from Vegan Tab.

I used roebeet's guide on SlateDroid and originally did an NVFlash to the 1.1 based ROM and then again to the 1.2 based ROM after I didn't get an OTA update from the 1.1 ROM.

The thread said that clockworkmod 3.0.2.8 rev5 was included in the 1.2 image but the recovery option seemed to be the normal stock.

I then installed clockworkmod 3.0.2.8 rev5, and ran through option 2 for the FB install. After the install from update.zip I did the data wipe/factory reset, and also did the dalvik cache wipe.

The problem I am facing is that the system will not boot. I get the boot screen; however, on the boot it will give the message about receiving the recovery key and load into CWM. It does this from a reboot system from within CWM or from a cold boot after holding down power to shutdown from inside of CWM.

The menu in CWM is responding normally so I don't believe the volume button suddenly became stuck. Does anyone have any ideas?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raywaldo:
Stuck in cwm

Try another flash. Or, you may have Nvflashed with a version that does not increase the size of the system partition. This rom requires 250meg. Flash a different (1.2bl) rom. If it works you will probably need to nvflash again. Use my guide here http://www.raywaldo.com/2011/01/nvflash-for-dummies/
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TEK112:
You need to re-nvflash 1.2BL and then reload the ROM. Also, NEVER push the "reboot recovery" option in clockwork or this same thing will happen.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TEK112:
You need to install a micro sdcard and then it will install, but then you have to go into settings-applications-manage apps-move aldiko to the tablet. If you try to open it first, bad things will happen. You may want to get a dedicated card for the tablet as many apps have this issue.

on first page you said the partion might be different but link to a site that just explains partition and doesnt say which one you currently are using

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TEK112:
You need to nvflash and start again. The partition they are referring to has nothing to do with the 2048/0. It has to do with the 1.2nvflash that increases the system partition from 200 to 250. You need to use Roebeet's nvflash1.2 folder to do this.

Get the same thing. Followed the recommended instructions. Still can't get 7.01 or 7.02. Have not went to any of the older ones to try. I was using GtabComb and went back to it just to make sure it was not something on the device and it worked.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gruuk:
When all else fails, install option #3 will work.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codf4ther:
Check your partition sizes

I believe that many of the problems newbies have with flashing HC roms are due to partition sizes. Many of us nvflashed a modified build (early versions of Bottle of Smoke - up to 2.2) by roebeet several months ago that altered our partition sizes to make HC roms fit.

Roe eventually shrunk BoS down so that it fit on the default partition table but I think this rom and several others are slightly over the size for a default /system partition. The only way to get the partitions setup up right is with a nvflash of the special rom he created and I can't find instructions to it online anymore.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tlbardelljr:
You are correct about partition sizes.

Tlb1961 nvflash on page 1 of this thread is an updated nvflash based from roebeets.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codf4ther:
OK so that confirms it. Any user coming off one of the stock roms or one of the Froyo roms, absolutely needs to run option 3 in the original post before flashing Flashback. Once "Option 3" has been run, they then proceed with Option 1 or 2. We might want to re-word the original post so that "Option 3" is actually shown as a "pre-requisite".

nv flashed worked

booting into 7.2 now thanks for the answers
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToadVine:
If you are having crashes, or freeze-ups during boot, try installing using Option #3.

Reason: The original stock partition size of 200 Mb was exceeded as Flashback was developed -- this is why people complain that 7.0 worked fine, but on later versions they began to have trouble. "If the ROM won't fit, then it must quit"... causing weird symptoms. Thus, an increase in partition size is needed. Option 3 takes care of this for you.

Note that everything is cleaned off the tablet during Option 3, so make sure to backup anything vital. The size increase only has to be done once, then you are good to go on this, or any other, ROM.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codf4ther:
Open a terminal on the tablet and run "df" (no quotes). It should list out the partitions and their sizes. /system is the main one to be worried about. Or you could just flash the rom. If it boots you're good to go.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] couchmonkey:
Ok so I started out with 7.1 then just updated and have a couple of questions for all you:

Pressing on the home button in the taskbar just brings up the last 5 apps open, any way to get more than that to show?

Random apps that I have switched from restart when I click on them in the switcher (such as the browser/Pulse/News360)

Random apps from the last couple of days from the Amazon App Store (Free downloads) fail at the installation screen and the same goes for older apps that used to work on 7.0 but not on this newest version, does that happen to the rest of you?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TEK112:
The square button shows you the last five apps you opened. That cannot be changed. It looks like a switcher, but it is not, it just shows you the last five you opened. If it is still loaded into memory it will appear like a switcher, but if the OS decides to unload it from memory, the app will restart.

You will also need an sdcard because apps sometimes want to install to the sdcard and if you don't have one, you will get "application not installed" errors. However, with the sdcard installed you can install the app, but immediately have to move it to tablet under the settings-applications-manage applications option. If you try to open from the sdcard, it will remove itself or crash.
