Hi I just installed 3.3 - things seem to working really great

Using dolphin browser v6 and downloaded flash 10.3 from market (as of today 7/27/2011) - when going to a site like youtube (on dolphin) and clicking on a video to play

I get the little down arrow (to say click on this to load flash) - I click it and I hear the sound but no video - happened on multiple websites

So any idea how I can get the video/pictures to show as well? - with youtube where the video is supposed to be its just white blank space (other sites its complete black where the player is supposed to be) - in youtube if I click where the white space is: it pauses and plays the video - so I guess I can interact with it...

thanks
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aasoror:
ok, that explains it then.

Remove the SDcard from your tablet for now and reboot.

If that didn't fix your issue then reflash (make sure there is no SD card inserted in your tablet).

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luvduchovny:
I've had that problem with 3.2 also. It doesn't happen very often. It seems to be random, but reboot will clear out the problem. If I can still get internet, I don't worry about it much and go ahead and do whatever I was doing.

But I notice when it does that if I go to the wifi settings, it says Wifi error and you can't just turn the wifi off and on.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zyhong:
your system is messed up. you will have to install again. looks like you are still able to get into cwm. wipe eveything and install again. you will need to start from nvflash if you have no access to cwm now.

The market works well with the externel_sd inserted.

By the way, if anyone get into some weird situation. Always do a wipe cache and davlik cache first and if that does not resolve your problem, then wipe data. Out of the box, this ROM works pretty well besides those known incompleteness with a clean install.

I guess I should NOT have mentioned that it works for me without wiping anything when updating from 3.2 to 3.3. This info might be misleading and misused. Some might do the install from other versions or even from other rom without doing the wipe. And some might have some apps that is in inconsistent state after a reinstall and cause the system to be unstable and do not do the clean up after they see a problem.

Again, for Android Rom, it is always a good idea to wipe data before an install, it might work without doing that, but there is NO guarantee that it will always work and different users might have different experience. And if you see a problem after an install without wiping, always do the wiping first before trying something else.

Just reporting back on my issue of not getting into RM. I actually went ahead and jumped to the BL 1.2 branch and flashed CWM and the ROM. I guess RM cannot flash into CWM recovery via app and can be done by pressing power and "+"? The only way I could get to CWM was to do the power and +.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshtb86:
did all of that before installing new rom. managed to NVflash stock 1.2/4588 and now am trying to get to CWM, but only the stock recovery is loaded for some reason. hopefully gtabcomb comes with CWM bc i am going to try that now

edit - when i try to flash via stock recovery the new gtabcom update.zip i just get a crossed wrench and screwdriver. what does this mean? also get error "cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk2" or "sdcard2:recovery/command"

whats going on here?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zyhong:
do NOT try the recovery from Rom Manager or from the enhanced shutdown menu. The best you will get is "it do not work". And the worst you might get is you will need to nvflash.

"Wifi Error" Fix

With 3.3, Pershoots new Kernel was intergrated into the ROM. This Kernel has a known issue with Wifi erroring out.. To solve this I copied all the files from System/lib/hw/wlan (six files total I think) to System/lib/modules, then I rebooted.. this fixed the Wifi Error issue..

Thanks to rwstarke for posting this fix on pershoots kernel thread

Pershoot released a "refreshed" version of his latest update early this morning.

(2632.43 072711-1) notice the dash 1 (-1) on there..

I'm about to flash this to see if the same "Wifi Error" pops up..

If you people decide to flash any new kernels.. Please be sure to choose the correct one..

There are several versions on his site..

for the 1.1 BL we use boot-cm_2632.43_gb-oc-uv-xtra-vfp_fp-072711.zip

for the 1.2 BL we use boot-cm_2632.43_gb_newbl-oc-uv-xtra-vfp_fp-072711.zip

Notice the (NEWBL) on the name.

EDIT: I can only Guess Pershoot removed the "-1" portion of the file name from his refreshed update early this morning because its not there now.

I still have it though and I'm guessing Pershoot simply renamed the refreshed file to his original 072711 update on his site.

EDIT2: After Flashing the "refreshed" version of 2632.43 072711-1 everything went smooth.. I didn't get the "Wifi Error" issue.. I can only guess this is because I already applied the fix method before hand.

Again, good update. I came from 3.2 and just upgraded without any wipe (not even cache), worked with no issues.

My only problem is I cannot use adb so cannot debug applications from Eclipse. I guess this is a driver problem. My PC detects the device and I can mount the filesystem to access and copy files. I have debug mode activated, tried to turn it off and on, but got the same result.

Thanks for the hard work on this HC version.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
That method is only partially correct.

If you were installing the WiFi modules from scratch, you would still get the WiFi error. I experimented a bit this morning because I routinely downgrade the WiFi firmware blobs after installing pershoot's kernel to fix my WiFi drop problem, and here's what I figured out:

In Froyo and GB, there are 6 files for WiFi and all are correctly in /system/lib/hw/wlan:

1. LICENSE.TXT: This you can ignore.

2. bcm4329.ko: On GtabComb (and probably all HC ROMs?) move this into /system/lib/modules.

3. fw_bcm4329.bin, fw_bcm4329_apsta.bin: These 2 firmware blobs have to be moved into /system/vendor/firmware. You will still get a WiFi error if you have everything in /system/lib/modules, but /system/vendor/firmware is empty.

4. BCM4329B1.hcd, nvram.txt: Leave these 2 in /system/lib/hw/wlan.

The nvram.txt should actually be in /data/misc/wifi/, but, the init*.rc files copy this file into that directory, so you don't have to do anything for this one.

The BCM4329B1.hcd is also copied by one of the /init*.rc files, so I'll assume that this file too is placed in the correct location at system boot.

Market Issues

I reported that I upgraded from 3.2 to 3.3 by just doing and overlay and everything worked. It did but then ...... When I went to get an app - even a free one --- in the market I started getting the "Purchased Cancelled" error. I tried the market fix but no deal. I did a backup and then ran Calkulin's Format all and cleared the Dalvik cache and then restored. Still there. I ran Calkulin's Format all and cleared the Dalvik cache again and did a fresh install of 3.3. That seeems to have worked. I restored my apps with Titanium Backup and there is some wonkiness. Terminal Emulator still won't run. When it first boots, my home screen widgets aren't there but if I press the home button and then select my homescreen they are all there. So .... it would appear that a fresh installation is required. As a side note, I replaced the launcher with vtlauncher from gojimi but I can't see that it would have any effect on this problem.

Has anyone observed? in 1.2 BL version the booting time is more. I'm not sure on the 1.1 version, never tried. Compared to other roms this rom takes more time to transition from 3 birds -> android -> boot animation. After boot animation everything is pretty fast.

Updated with latest pershoot kernel, still has Wifi issue, all works after file copy from wlan folder. Mean while, I think this is port from 3.0 ROM from Asus, today Asus updated to 3.2. Any chance of that being used in upcoming versions?

If you have problems this will fix it

If you have problems that just will not go away... (I have been there) or, if you are coming from another rom and want to be sure that flashing this ROM goes well, you may wish to visit my "ClockworkMod 1.2bl & Honeycomb on GTab" guide.

This easy-to-follow guide will step you through the process to WIPE the device (as Zyhong has recommended) and install the branch 1.2 bootloader version of CMR. Some users may be able to skip this but you risk future issues that likely will still require you to wipe the device and start over (again). Just start right and get it right.

If your GTab has the version 1.1 bootloader, I have instructions for that as well. But my recommendation is to switch to the 1.2 branch and start over.

Then Zyhong's beta 3.3 will work as well as others are saying. :cool:

Where's my bees?

I've been running Vegan GB for quite a while now and I like it. Today my Droid X got a GB update and I saw a number of interesting improvements. I was poking around on XDA and saw the 1.1 Honeycomb BOS. I read the posts and said to myself - time for an upgrade. I dutifully made a Clockwork backup then ran Calkulin's Format All to clean things up. I wiped the Dalvik cache and installed the zip file using Clockworkmod. It installed and I saw the credit screens, and briefly thought I saw a desktop and then all went blank. I hadf to power down so I wiped again and rebooted. Same thing. I went back to clockwork, wiped and then reinstalled. It boots up through the credits and then - blank screen and no response to buttons. I've re-read the posts but I must be missing something. It sounds like other people are loading it with no difficulties so where am I messing up?

I also tried it twice. I'm not familiar with the inner workings of how the install zip files work, but it seems that something isn't forced to be changed. Anyway...

Not sure how else you can run the commands, because a Terminal Emulator isn't installed from the get go. I'd suggest finding a friend with adb installed, or download and install just the android sdk.

I'm in linux, and installing the sdk is basically just unzipping it. Not sure how difficult it is in windows. But the next step is getting the computer to recognize the device. I'm sure there are steps for that in one of the stickies.

OK - that worked briefly - as I was about to write thanks - the desktop blanked out and I had to reboot the tablet.

Originally, I was going to ask why mounting those partitions and reinstalling worked but now I'm more interested in why the screen goes blank. Wait...this time I rebooted and it went to a blank cyanogen colored screen. One more reboot before I call it a day and the screen is ... hmmm back to blank with no lock screen desktop or anything else. Grrrr trying Calkulin's format script and wipe the Dalvik cache and reboot - absolutely the last time tonight and .... Magic Value mismatch ....hmmmm goofed up here somehow.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phoenix84118:
I understand the concern with the bootloader change. I don't know how long it's been since you tried that, but things have changed a bit recently. Roebeet has mentioned before (not sure if on XDA, but elsewhere for sure), that all his ROMs now contain the bootloader and recovery required for that specific ROM. That reduces the likelihood of soft-brick, even flashing directly from 1.1. As long as all the 1.1 users are on 3588 (which they should be anyway), and use the stock recovery, then they shouldn't have a problem.

The only con to BoS specifically is it flashes CWM by default (since SD is inaccessible on the PC), so to back out of BoS you have to revert to stock recovery following his directions. The rest of his ROMs use stock recovery. Unfortunately I don't know about the other ROMs (like VEGAn), I haven't used them recently to know if they've updated theirs as well to include bootloader/recovery.

Still though, until all the devs are on the same bootloader, it does add confusion and risk, especially since a CWM backup can be rendered useless until the correct bootloader is restored for that backup.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glgehman:
Alls I can think is did you wait long enough?

I too started with Vegan GB. My install was a little bit messier than yours - I forgot that I needed to copy the files from the micro sd card to INTERNAL memory but fortunately hadn't formatted system yet...

But once I had the files there, I formatted system then data then cache. I flashed the BoS 1.1 zip file. I rebooted and it loaded.

Quite a few times while I was working with it, I would get an all black screen or an all white screen *with an Android app title bar.* A couple of times I force-power downed. But after a while I realized that these screens - if left alone for a few minutes - eventually would draw their menu or whatever they were supposed to contain.

Overall, I'm pretty sure I will be going back to Ginger Edition. Even on the Asus Transformer, Honeycomb isn't all it's supposed to be.

Hope you figure it out.
