I USE THE DS,sometimes when i press the power button to wake my phone up! it just restart, I exchange the radio .hboot.recovery and other roms ! it still variable interval happen! what's wrong with my ds ! can anybody tell me? very THKS :(
[HTC Desire S] praveen5344:
Could be a problem with the main board.......is it still under warranty if so the take it to service center immediately.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
I assume that you mean that it powers on, suggesting that at some point prior, it's shut down on it's

own.

I'd suggest that you perform a factory reset, install no applications and run the device for a few days to see if it happens again, as this could be related to one of the applications that you're using

[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Haven't looked at it yet, but found it in my normal scan (I didn't have the build number that high before, so I must have missed it the last few weeks):

http://tapntap.http.internapcdn.net/tapntap/viewsonic/update-smb_a1002-5274-user.zip

EO July build date. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK, as always. I'm going to dissect this tomorrow or Saturday and, if there's anything of importance in there, I'll make a Mountain Laurel update out of it (if the power stays on, of course - Irene, please be kind!).
[G Tablet General] JoTeC:
Awesome, looking forward to your findings...
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
HIGH DEFINITION VIDEO PLAYBACK IS FIXED, with this build (it was broken in all the previous 1.2 stock ROMS -- 3991, 4349 and I believe 4950). I use the same 1080p main profile video for all my baseline tests, and it's working in 5274 stock.

That, in itself, is a good enough reason to deploy this into Mountain Laurel. However, I have to test if I need to use their kernel or not, so more testing would be needed. Worst case, I'd deploy with their kernel, like I used to do with TNT Lite - but of course I still need to check sleep.

This thing also has a newer bootloader, but Mountain Laurel always includes that. Might be related to the video fix, but again not certain without further testing.

As for other changes, probably nothing much - I'm seeing only the usual app and framework files being touched post 4950, the Wifi was touched as well libvodm_query. The camera is still mirrored incorrectly, as it has been on all 1.2 builds.

EDIT: I have a prototype with the pershoot kernel, and video playback is still working. Awesome - good to see that this is finally fixed.

EDIT2: Pulling out the pershoot kernel and testing a "mostly stock" version, like I used to do with TNT Lite. If sleep is working and battery life seems improved, it might be worth going back to that type of release. If someone wants a custom kernel, it's fairly easy to add it on your own.

I think they finally "got it right" with this 5274, going on my testing so far. A worthy successor to 3588 and 4349 stock, imo.

EDIT3: Spoke too soon - sleep issues are cropping up. Might need to keep pershoot's kernel after all -- no worries.
[G Tablet General] mike_ekim:
Outstanding work Roe.

When you say new bootloader, do you mean 1.2 or do you mean something else?
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
It's still 1.2 based - but it's got a newer timestamp, and I have a reliable source that tells me that it's been tweaked. :D Btw, my ML update is released - I stuck with a 3.0.0 with a stock kernel, as that's what I used to do for TNT Lite. Pershoot / Clem kernels can always be installed by the user, if they wanted. (I had retested sleep on a clean machine, no apps, and had no SOD).

Btw, it seems very obvious to me that the 1.1 branch is now long dead. TapnTap have only done 1.2-based work for the Olipad and Hannspad these last few months, the Adam has been 1.2 since almost Day One, and all the GTAB TapnTap work since March (3991, 4349, 4950 and now 5274) are all 1.2-based.

Sooner or later there will be a stock release, and it will almost certainly be 1.2-based, again. I would argue that this 5274 may very well be their next GA release, it's just a question of when. I hope Cyanagenmod will eventually swing over.
[G Tablet General] mike_ekim:
Very awesome Roe. I have been using Vegan 5.1.1 with VTL mainly because it covers *my* basic needs: PvZ, Keyboard/mouse, hardware acceleration, HD video. ANd I dodn't need to bother going to a 1.2 ROM. I think now is the time to go 1.2 and check out a newer ROM.

One question: does Mountain Laurel suffer from the media delete issue? Is .nomedia required? Not being able to access media on Vegan 5.1.1 (after applying the .nomedia fix) is kind of lousy.
[G Tablet General] aabbondanza:
Will you repack as a nvflash package, wait for the GA, or none of these?
[G Tablet General] mike_ekim:
Actually, one more question: did you try the stock 5274 ROM and see if it ran any better than before? My biggest complaint with stock was that it was so slow, but I always liked the LOOK of it, especially the weather app.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
From limited testing, I had no issues - for example none of my video test files got wiped. But only time will tell and it is a new kernel.

Btw, good point on PvZ - wish I knew what it was about the old VEGAn build kernel that makes it stable.

I'd have to go back and test things on builds 3991 / 4249 / 4950, but I would say that it feels snappier than 3588 for sure. And Nenamark / SmartBench scores seem to back that up. So far it really feels like a solid stock Froyo ROM and it's a shame that there are stock users with the ancient 3588 build that still don't have the option to get this ROM the "supported" way.

I'm going to wait until next week and, assuming the new Mountain Laurel mod I just released doesn't have any serious issues, I'm going to update my 4349-based nvflash to 5274. I probably won't wait for GA, because I could be waiting a long time. :)
[G Tablet General] craigacgomez:
@roebeet awesome work as usual... I'm really really impressed with the speed of your releases... fantastic work... thanks a million for making my GTab well worth the money I spent!!
[G Tablet General] gkitab:
Hello Roebeet. How was your much deserved break?

Would this happen to have the market included? If not would old methods of getting it on work?

Would you recommend pershoots or clemsyns kernel, what is difference other than 1400 compared to 1500?

Also would you happen to know if than old nvrdaemon file/hack from back in the day than dexter put out would work?

Its been a while seen running stock, always liked it but took honeycomb plunge. Thinking about going back to hassle free stock, flash and hd playback is a plus!

I would think the performance is better than 3588, 4349??? I do miss the back to top of page tab in 3588 browser that 4349 didnt have. Saved a boat of scrolling. Is that option back?

Thanks and hope all is well with weather, I noticed your in western pa, im 20 min from Philadelphia and its not looking all that hot. Need something to do while cooped up. This sounds like it could be fun to tinker with!
[G Tablet General] craigacgomez:
Let me answer some questions which I'm sure off...

Market 3.1.3 (latest Market to date) is included in ML3.0.0... along with the olympus (Motorola Atrix) build props...

Honestly, I think pershoot's kernel is better... It is updated more frequently and includes some latest Tegra changes... and OC to 1400 is definitely much more stable than OC to 1500... without any real noticeable difference (maybe some full HD videos might work a bit better at 1500)

It is definitely smoother than the previous versions (3588, 4349, etc.), but no, there is no "scroll to top" option in the browser...
[G Tablet General] digilexic:
I took the plunge and installed this update to see if it would fix the SOD I have been experiencing on all 1.2bl based roms. Did the following:

Booted to CWM

Cleared user data

Clear dalvik cache

Formatted cache, system, data, sdcard

Copied file to internal memory and renamed to update.zip

Installed from CWM using update.zip

Clear data, cache, dalvik cache

Reboot

Finish setup and make sure everything works.

Downloaded Flashback 7.2 to sdcard

Clear cache, data, dalvik

Reboot and enjoy.

Funny thing is my tablet still has SOD with every honeycomb rom i tried. Only time i dont is on 1.1bl based honeycomb roms. Everything else is working fine.
[G Tablet General] gkitab:
I agree, yes its smoother.

You are correct that pershoots has been updated, did not think about that.

Bummer on the back to top tap. I think its stupid that they removed that. It was mighty convienent.

Now, what are you talking about with the market. It does not have it. What's the atrix talk about?
[G Tablet General] Spazmogen:
Sleep of Death?

What does that entail?

For each and every 1.2 bootloader version from TnT (only TnT), I have problems with the home screen crashing unless I change it on 1st boot to Classic. It happended with Mountain Laurel too, yes the new Roebeet version of this week in included in that.

The home screen will crash as soon as I unlock the screen, unless I have changed it in the previous boot. So, I leave it on Classic. I have ML installed, homescreen changed to classic. All my software installed and now its time for a CWM backup.

Am I experiencing the SoD?
[G Tablet General] Mikeg1969:
Roe,

It's been a looooonng while since I flashed a stock TnT update but if this is stable I would like to update my wife's Gtab to this most current one. Can you point me in the direction of the market and accelerometer fixes along with anything else I might be forgetting? I would just put Mountain Laurel on hers but she likes the stock TnT interface, besides she is not tech minded so I am keeping hers mostly stock with just the necessary fixes. I really do wish there was some way I could talk you into doing a modified stock TnT update.zip (stock with all the fixes already included). :D Thanks for all that you do and here's to hoping that you and your family made it through Irene OK.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
thx -- still picking up the pieces post-Irene (basement was flooded so I'm ripping out the carpeting today).

As for ML, the install actually loads a stock image first, then I layer all the custom changes afterwards. So, if you enjoy a little trial and error, you could look into the update.zip and alter it to your needs. For the TnT apps, I first delete them and, in some cases, overlay them with stock apps - so you'd need to look at both the updater-script and /system folder, for what you want to alter.
[G Tablet General] gkitab:
Hope all is well. Good luck with basement. Near Philly I only lost power about six hours sat night into sun, but being under tornado warning in our county and having one roll down our street last year, the old ladyhad us sleep down basement sat night. Basement floor is not comfy.

Anyways what is the best way to go about getting market on this. Been a long time since running stock. Kinda like it but missing market.

One other thing, remember in 3588, while browsing we had the back to top tab that saved alot of scrolling in browser. Also when you would click something in the browser the top bar would drop down and you would see the progress icon so you would know your press registered. Why they did away with these things I don't get, it made the browser much more user friendly, is there a way to bring those two things back?
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Never really noticed those before, but my guess is that the Browser apk could be replaced from the 52xx one to the 3588 one, to see if that functionality returns.
[G Tablet General] ramerco:
Roebeet, do you make any changes to boot.img except to add the ML image?

Also, is anyone seeing any problems booting with 5274? I can't get my gtab to boot with it. Just sits on the boot animation forever.. like hours.. until the screen jsut goes off. Then you can tap power and it comes right back to the boot animation, almost like sleep mode during the boot.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I just add the debugging support, as well as a different boot image.

If it's hanging, it might just need a data wipe. I've had that happen many times when moving from another ROM.
[G Tablet General] janovak1:
Sorry for being such a noob! If I want to try this, do I just save the zip file, as is, to the root of the SD Card and do the "update from SD Card" in clockwork mod?

Thanks!

John
[G Tablet General] nvanlaar:
You need to extract the zip file and than place the two folders on the root. One will be named "recover" and the other will be a zip named "update".
[G Tablet General] janovak1:
Well, I extracted the files from the zip and there is no file named "update" or 'recover". There is one named "recovery"
[G Tablet General] ramerco:
Yeah, I have wiped, done nvflash, many things... Must be some error in my build or some residual stuff on the gtab...

What is your method of completely wiping the gtab, is nvflashing overtop of what is there and then partitioning the SD usually sufficient?
[G Tablet General] MicroChip:
New 1.2 Bootloader

Hey Roebeet,

I always appreciate your work. I'm curious, you mentioned there is a slightly newer version of the 1.2 bl with this. Does installing ML install this new BL?

I'm one of the people who seems to have sleep of death no matter what 1.2bl rom I use, so I use Zhyong's 1.1bl HC rom. I'm wondering if I can nvflash the newest 1.2bl to test if it fixes or improves this issue with a few of the roms out there.

Thanks!

MC
[G Tablet General] janovak1:
Found the answer to my question on how to load this. Thank you.
[G Tablet General] MicroChip:
I nvflashed to 1.2bl, and then immediately upgraded it to ML 3.1, and found no sleep of death. I then flashed it to Adamcomb 0.3, and while that doesn't run as smoothly as it could, no sleep of death.

Pretty much every other rom uses Pershoot's kernel. I'm pretty sure that's the cause. I've heard he lowers some voltages, and I guess some gtabs can't take it. Funny thing is I have no problem with sleep of death running those same roms in their 1.1bl incarnations even though they also use pershoot's kernel.

Thoughts?

MC
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I would nvflash to a 1.2bl baseline, if you're having issues. It's usually what I would do, and possibly an SD repartition if that doesn't help. For the latter, I've had to do that a few times during the life of my own device.

Also, a reminder that clockworkmod won't work if you are on 1.1bl and you'll end up soft-bricking the device.
[G Tablet General] MicroChip:
I nvflash back and forth between 1.1 and 1.2 probably more often than I should, and I have re-partitioned the SD a few times. It just seems that any 1.2bl rom that uses Pershoot kernel causes sleep of death. There's definitely something slightly more sensitive in my tab than the average gtab, though I know I'm not the only one with this problem. I can even trace it back to using your BOS, the sleep of death came around switching to version 5 or 5.1 or I forget, but it definitely coincided with Pershoot's kernel. I can run gtabcomb or cm7 1.1bl versions fine, but 1.2bl version of the same rom gives me sleep of death.

I'm hoping all of this will be moot when the guys get the 2.6.36 kernel and HC 3.2 running :)

MC
[G Tablet General] qkster:
Roebeet,

Thank you for all the work you have done on the Gtab.

With all the new tabs floating around, I'm fear that the Gtab may be in it's twilight. :(

I have a collection of your NVflash files of 1.1BL and 1.2BL and the update series.

They have been valuable in getting my Gtab back from the brinks of bricking.

I was wondering if you think there will be any benefit in having an NVFlash to 5274 as a starting base for other custom ROM(BL1.2) installation?

Thanks
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I believe there will be, but my main PC is still being rebuilt so I haven't gotten around to building a 5274 nvflash (yet). I'm actually going back to Windows after four years on Ubuntu, so this is the biggest system change I've done in years. I don't even know how to use adb in Windows! :) I might build out an Ubuntu VM just to keep me going, for now.

As for the SOD, also keep in mind that 5274 has a newer 1.2-based bootloader (it was definitely tweaked, as per a contact I have). So, if you're using a 1.2 ROM like BoS or Flashback or VEGAN-Ginger, keep that in mind as there's at least two bootloaders for 1.2. I did my last Froyo ROM updates with the newest 5274 bootloader, so maybe it's related (no SOD for me, at least on my Froyo ROMs. Mountain Laurel was actually used through Irene - a big test, last weekend).
[G Tablet General] Sharpe351:
Roe, just some FYI... I went from Windows to Ubuntu, and love it... (I need pointers) I digress.

I Flashed the 5274 and ML update and had SOD several times, until I flashed Clemsyn's Kernal. No more SOD for me (was warned of issues with Clemsyn kernal, but found none). I am now on Brilliant Corners (with update to 1.3.1) and loving it. Still using Clemsyn's kernal. I tried the "pimp my gpu" kernal he released and got stuck in bootloop. No matter. Thanks to you (again) I was easily able to NVFlash out and get back up in a half hour or so. Thank you for all of your hard work. I now have friends wanting me to upgrade their Gtabs. I taught them how to do it and they don't bug me... nice. :D
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Yep, best thing to do if to give them a little knowledge and then they can be their own tablet support. :)

And not to hijack too much, but I thought about Windows vs. Linux for 24 hours, post-Irene. In 2007, it was a Vista world and Ubuntu really served my needs but Windows 7 has grown on me. Plus I've been a Technet subscriber for the last 2+ years, now. Gaming of course, Netflix support, and some great multimedia tools like EAC and Foobar2000 made the transition fairly painless. Plus I'm finishing up an Ubuntu VM to run all the apps I'm used to dealing with, as I slowly move them over. ADB is working there, but not the emulator - I guess I have to bite the bullet and put the SDK on for Windows, soon.

I actually have no idea where my Gtablet power cord, is -- I still have about ten boxes of stuff to go through, after we quickly packed stuff up and moved them out of my wet basement....
[G Tablet General] Sharpe351:
Roe, there is a known issue with emulator not working in windows... I can't remember the exact code, but you have to change something through Eclipse to get it right. I had the same issue on my XP machine. I just got ADB working on Ubuntu this am. I think I will flash back to Century Eyes today. I have a bug in Clemsyn's kernal that I haven't been able to fix yet for VeganTab GE. USB is giving me some issues.
[G Tablet General] ramerco:
ADB is fine for me on windows.

Roebeet, do you stick with the included videoplayer.apk in 5274 for good hd playback or are you using something else in ML now?
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I keep the stock player (which is embedded in Android, I believe). There are so many third-party options that I just leave it to the user to decide.
[G Tablet General] doctorisin:

Froyo Browser

Is there anyway to get the stock Froyo browser on TapNTap instead of that crappy browser they have? I have tried myself, but keep getting force closes. I also see that Roe hasn't been able to replace it in Mountain Laurel either. The browser is really the only thing keeping me from running stock.
[G Tablet General] gruuk:
Do you know if it's possible to install Opera Mobile on this stock ROM? Each time I install a new ROM, that browser is one of the first apps I re-install as I prefer it to the standard Android browser.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Just scans (with a little guesswork) to see if there are new TapnTap builds for the GTAB - ran it yest with nothing new found.

I had tried many months ago, but there's something in the TapnTap framework that requires that specific apk. I hadn't re-tried in awhile.
[G Tablet General] Sharpe351:
I installed the standard android browser, copy from data/apps to system/apps after install (using root explorer), reboot to cwm and fix permissions. You should be able to delete the stock browser also before booting into cwm.
[G Tablet General] SoNic67:
Mountain Laurel with the latest build does work wonderfull. H/W acceleration on the 720p is nice. Very nice.

I am switching back and forth between ML and another Honeycomb ROM. I cannot decide what I need more :)

Some H/W accelerated (nVidia) drivers for the 3.0 would be so nice!
