so idk if its my tablet or not, but when i just installed 7.2 forgot to change the timeout screen setting, and plugged in my usb to pc and just mounted it when the screen turned off causing the connection to be lost....not a big deal, but apparently it shut down my tablet. now thats weird. since its my tablet i just turn off screen timeout and dont get this problem, but i thought id let you know

btw if games have tiny screens, is there a way to make them fit the screen or compatible?

Flash problem

PLEASE someone help me fix my flash video problem. I'm using alpha 7.2 with Opera Mobile as the browser.

YouTube works great. Tv.com works great...but with CNN Video, videos usually won`t play unless I continuously swipe my finger across the video screen! The faster the swiping, the more it looks like full-motion video! How's that for a bizarre problem?

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TEK112:
You need to re nvflash. Sounds like a bad partition. You have to use roebeets modified nvflash that expands the system partition.

how do i do that im new to the gtab just got it today!!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] transitoyspace:
go to page one, USE option 3....i think OP should reword it a bit.

It uses a different partion then older roms. download the file

theres instructions in there

follow them...its much easier then you think

basically you need to install drivers for the gtab...then you run a bat on windows and it will do all the work for you..aftwards you reformat your gtab in cwm and then should be able to load the rom...thats just quickly paraphrasing.. its not hard...EVERYONE! on here makes it seem so hard..and the whole confusion of 1.1 bootloader...they way everyone words things here make it seem if you dont read you screw it up... not the case.

btw i REALLY recommend this rom. It doesnt have full HW support and its old 3.0 honeycomb but its awesome, compared to the crap rom that came with it...its awesome..and its hc so you can show off and play awesome tegra 2 honeycomb games, like sprinkle

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mydave1:
I went from Beasty rom to Flashback fine using cwm 3.0.2.8. Did wipe data/factory reset + clear dalvik cache + format 2048/0 before flashing and did data/factory reset after flashing.

I wonder if you would do the wipe's then try again. May want to repeat that one or two times. If that does not work, then follow tlbardelljr's suggestion about nvflashing.

By the way, I did try restoring nandroid of beasty rom and it hung at boot. I went in recovery and wiped data/factory reset and reboot. Beasty booted up fine with no data, of course. Then I tried the restoring a second time. All my previous settings and data of Beasty rom returned.

Just did the wipes and installed Flashback 4.3. All was well. Try it, and you may like what you see with this great rom. Oh! Beasty rom, and most other rom's are defaulted to 160 or so screen density. The HC rom's defaulted to 120 so everything is sharper and smaller. I use LCD Density Changer for adjustment to help my old eyes.

@tlbardelljr, another congratulation to your accomplishment. Have a great long weekend with your fine family.

looks like I need to nvflash, I tried again with mydave1's advice and no dice.

Only my 2nd time nvflashing and it's been quite a while

I have the drivers installed and under device manager-USB controllers I do see "Nvidia USB boot recovery driver for mobile devices" however then when I run the nvflash_gtablet.bat script it just says

"nvflash.exe is not recognized as an internal or external command"

any suggestions? Thanks :)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mydave1:
When I tried nvflashing, I always do it in a command windows by starting a cmd session, then browse to the nvflash folder and run the bat file. For example, when you open a cmd windows, you would see the default prompt like C:\users\Dad>. Simply change to your nvflash directory, which in my case is c:\nvflash; so I type the command cd c:\nvflash. Once I am in the nvflash folder, I run the bat file.

I am using win7 ultimate.

Or you can check out this thread by goodintentions http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1121909.

Be very careful with nvflashing. A mis-step may lead to apx loop which is the hardest one to recover from. Also, as you may already knew, make sure to be on 1.2 bl when flashing this Flashback rom.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luigic81:
Update got it installed per your insturctions, thanks!!

So question, if I want to be able to go back and forth between this and Beasty, can I just restore nandroids? Or do you have to partition the sd card every time you switch? If you have to partiton the sd card everytime I assume you would just back up your nandroid file to your pc and then pop it back on the sd card after the partition? Thanks!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mydave1:
Glad that it works and tell us how you feel about the rom. Perhaps it would meet your expectations.

As for your other question, I simply restored nandroid back-up to switch between 1.2 bl rom's (i.e, Beasty, Flashback, CM7, BOS etc . . ). There is no need to do the partition 2048/0 again. If I get into a hang, as mentioned above in a previous thread, I would do a wipe data/factory reset then try the restore again. That worked for me.

weird problem

Hi. I flashed the 7.2 alpha 2days ago and am loving it overall. However, I'm facing some weird problems.

I'm unable to install Aldiko. I've tried several times from the market but each time it downloads completely and then says "installation unsuccessful". I've tried downloading the APK and then install it but I get the same same result.

Also, sometimes the screen alignment seems out when selecting text. For example, if I press and hold on the word 'example' in my sentence, it would select the word 'selecting' while the sliderrs for selecting will be under the word 'press'. I hope I'm explaining this right. The selection problem has so far been only in the browser (I use stock) and at the same home, the calibration is perfect for the keyboard.

Would really appreciate help.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raywaldo:
screen alignment

I see that at times when I am trying to select text. I am confident that it is not a screen alignment issue since it is accurate at other times. I just write those OCCASIONAL flukes off as the result of running a custom rom (either beta or alpha). Some things are just not going to be perfect.

Hi,

I've experimented a bit with the "Android task killer" settings with quite decent results!

I've had 2 test scenario's that I thought were memory related :

- Plants vs Zombies crashed the entire tablet for me

- Google Earth zoomed in at New York crashed if I enabled 3D building

I followed this guide, dug up an old Galaxy S optimization script and most of all experimented and I came out with the following settings :

Foreground App : 6 MB

Visible App : 8 MB

Secondary Server : 16 MB

Hidden App : 60 MB

Content Provider : 90 MB

Empty App : 90 MB

Basically we don't care about killing the empty apps and the content providers (Hidden Apps are apps the user might come back to but 60 MB is quite low) and we do care a lot about killing foreground and visible apps.

After this the tablet no longer crashes at Plants vs Zombies (just a return to the launcher) and I can see New York in glorious 3D :D The tablet feels a bit smoother and multi- tasking is handled quite fine.

I still get crashes with Galaxy on Fire 2 (to the launcher) and slow downs in N64oid so something is not yet right but I feel confident that this is a step in the right direction.

The VegaComb Roms guys mentioned tweaking several memory related settings in their changelog, perhaps they have a few more pointers for us? (although it sucks that they are on a different kernel now).

Edit :

CyanogenMod is going for :

Foreground App : 14 MB

Visible App : 16 MB

Secondary Server : 24 MB

Hidden App : 24 MB

Content Provider : 30 MB

Empty App : 32 MB

For the HTC Leo which also has 512 MB Ram.

In any case I think we can agree that 80 MB for everything is a bit overkill ;)

system partition must be 250meg

Probably you will soft-brick your GTab.

It depends on how you set up originally. This ROM requires that the system partition be enlarged from 200meg to 250meg. If you are uncertain, it is best to NVFlash to Roebeet's 1.2-4349 modified stock before trying to flash this rom.

The random FCs are usually caused by bad permissions which can be fixed through clockwork. However, more recently, it has been attributed to the incorrect system partition size being set to 2xx instead of 25x, I forget the exact numbers.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TEK112:
From what I see there is no HD YouTube app, only the regular youtube app which you can set to automatically play HD videos (if the video you are watching supports HD). Personally, I do not think you should switch ROMs for the true HD playback. Honestly, with as crappy as our screens are (limited viewing angles and all), only a parrot would truly appreciate the difference between a HQ youtube video and an HD one. Just my 2 cents.

Clean WIPE = GOOD INSTALL

Minor irritations like that are generally due to leftover data from the previous flash. You probably only need to clear the caches and reset.

However, it appears that the market is sometimes overloaded and updates sometimes fail. I have never experienced a bad download of a new app but it happens pretty often with updates. In that case, I usually exit the market for a few minutes, log back in and try it again. It usually works. On the few occasions that I could not get an update after 3 or 4 tries, I uninstalled the old copy and downloaded the new version. Worked great.

If you have the 1.2bl and the expanded (250meg) system partition, then a good install is easy. Just be sure to clear both caches (normal & dalvik) and do a RESET to factory after the flash. Should work.
