Thank you sir. You have been a great help today.
[G Tablet Android Development] merdely:
To give credit where it's due, TEK112 is the one that helped us both with the SOD issue. I just showed you how to disconnect WiFi.

Thanks, TEK112.
[G Tablet Android Development] kaneelias:
Good point, thanks TEK112 as well.
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
Much obliged.

I installed 10.3 on my Gtablet.. it is terrific!!!

I have a few questions:

1) Is there a 'task manager' so I can close programs I am no longer using?

2) Is there any sort of user's manual or video describing the features and how to use all the features of the OS?

Thank you!
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
Glad you like it: here is a video that should help you understand the features:

http://www.droid-life.com/2011/03/16/video-honeycomb-android-3-0-tutorial-and-walk-through/

As far as a task manager is concerned, it is your preference. There are loads out there and you just have to play with them to see what you like.
[G Tablet Android Development] dvus:
]

Would you care to share the 10.1 Flash apk? I've looked and can't find it in the Flashback threads.
[G Tablet Android Development] kaneelias:
From what I have read, Android is built so that task managers are not required and are not encouraged to be used, see here http://www.droid-life.com/2011/06/02/revisiting-android-task-killers-and-why-you-dont-need-one/

But I guess at the end of the day it is personal preference.
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
You are correct that in some instances task managers are frowned upon. Android has native built in capabilities to manage memory quite efficiently. This was not really the case in 2.1 and got a little better in 2.2 and 2.3, but 3.0 and more specially 4.0 have been great at handling memory allocation.

However, the main reason in today's world for using a task manager is to eliminate rogue processes that do not close or have memory leaks that use a great amount of resources. It is also nice to see what applications are using what resources and how that impacts your device.

I highly recommend a task manager of some sorts. However, I do not recommend a program that automatically terminates processes without user intervention.

Hey guys. I'm a long time flashback user and just bought the $199 Office Depot G-tab for my mother for Christmas. (amazing how cheap its become for such a great honeycomb tablet after a quick flash of the greatest Rom ever)

I preloaded her tablet with the newest flashback Rom before giving it to her and she's loving it. But I need to figure out 2 things, maybe one of you could help me out.

I use this strictly for my lab computer so I always have WiFi handy. But my mom is a realtor ans wants to be able to tether her phone (htc EVO shift) to her flashback tablet. Anybody have any experience with this? Also she uses MLS which is a huge realtor program/website that runs primarily with internet explorer. Anybody ever run it with flashback?
[G Tablet Android Development] timbck2:
I don't know anything about tethering with the G Tablet running Flashback, but you might check out an application called MLS Touch (it's currently in beta, but claims to be an app made for realtors to access the MLS). It's in the Market.
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
The eco has to be rooted and should have wifi tether installed. Then the tablet would connect just like it would to any router.
[G Tablet Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Simply an amazing ROM.

Flash it right and it works like.... Wow
[G Tablet Android Development] firewater88:
For some reason, I have always needed to use Clems kernel to keep from SOD since v9 of FB. I typically do a wipe and format between versions, sometimes just a nflash to start fresh. I never have an issue flashing it, typically I flash clems zip right after I flash the FB zip while still in recovery. I have heard that different tablets have different results with kernals for some reason.
[G Tablet Android Development] CoolRob:
This is an awesome ROM for me so far. I loaded this ROM after following the instruction to update to 1.2 bootloader. It's been working great for the past week or so. The internet was slow at first but it seems to work much better now. Battery life is great and I can load a lot of apps from the Android market and the Amazon appstore. Some of the apps do not work such as: Asphalt 6 - Adrenaline HD, Let's Gofl 3. I guess these apps do not compatible with HC, maybe.

Anyway, Thanks for working on the ROM and hope you will come out more great ROMs in the future.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!
[G Tablet Android Development] kaneelias:
Just wanted to report back on my SOD issue. I flashed the Trial5 kernel on my fiancés Gtab and since then no SOD. I have turned it on 10 hours after use and no issues.

I have noticed that the Gtab seems to be running a little slower though. Can anyone tell me if this kernel is overclocked and if not are any of Clem's trial HC kernels overclocked as i did like the speed after the initial flash.

Also wanted to ask about everyone's battery life and how long they go before charging. Just as a comparison with my Xoom i can leave it in flight mode for 24 hours and drop 3% battery. I know this is not a Xoom and the GTAB was not designed for Honeycomb but i am just looking for some feedback on user's findings.

Cheers,
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
Install cpumaster (free from the market) and OC to your hearts desire. That should make it much smoother.
[G Tablet Android Development] kaneelias:
Brilliant! Once again thank you for the speedy response.

Just out of curiosity do you know what the kernel with this rom is set to?

Thanks so very much for this advice - very simple and it solved the download error message I was getting. I think I encountered this once before on either this tablet or a different one, but I had forgotten! Phew - without titanium, i might have gone back to my previous ROM without at least playing with this one. It's nice and responsive so far. We'll see after I get what I can loaded on there.

great job

I've been on CM, G-Harmony GB and Vegan-Tab since I've had my gtablet...finally decided to take the 1.2 firmware plunge and Flashback was the first HC rom I flashed and all I can say it wow...it's amazing, it's great how HC is ported over to this tablet. I've used the motorola xoom at work and the HC on the gtablet is the same. Great job guys and keep it up!
[G Tablet Android Development] imdaman99:
Love the rom but unfortunately the battery died and than everything went bonkers after that. The date stays stuck on Jan 1, 2009 and the market doesn't work. Neither does the Amazon market. The internet works though because every website opens on Opera.

I've tried deleting my google account and then restarting and trying to add it back but it just says Can't establish a reliable connection to the server. This could be a temporary problem or your Android device may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care.

Obviously I have tried connecting and reconnecting to my wi-fi but it says the same thing everytime. I don't really want to start from scratch, but if I have to I will. Shoot me some advice guys, thanks in advance :)
[G Tablet Android Development] kieso:
The date being wrong is what is screwing up the market. The rest im not sure but sounds like you might have to start over. Id wait and see what some others say first. I wanted to go back to this rom but it seems kinda buggy since the 10.3 update
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
Charge till green, reboot into recovery and wipe data and cache. Then boot into the rom and set date and time. Add google account. If having a problem adding it press menu button at add account screen and select browser sign in. Perform market fix. Reboot.
[G Tablet Android Development] xfbo:
WOW!

I just downloaded the ROM and NVFlash zips earlier today, flashed per instructions and all I can say is W-O-W !!!!

I've been flashing different rom's for about two yrs now on various devices, THIS rom is by far one of the best ones I've ever flashed!!!

I should admit I haven't really been following the latest and greatest rom's for the GTab, VeganBeta was my last flash almost a year ago but man, this HC stuff is awesome!

Much thanks to the dev team for putting together an awesome GTab platform.......I can't stand that it's my wifes tab and not mine now!!! LOL!

Any chance on this team porting a copy for the NC? :o:D
[G Tablet Android Development] hikouka71:
any idea why cache cleaner ng would run super slooooooowly?
[G Tablet Android Development] kaneelias:
Still having some minor issues with this ROM. Sometimes while using the tablet for a while the processor seems to grind to a halt and the tablet will not respond. This happened usually after 15 to 20 minutes of continued use.

Only way to fix is by restarting by holding down the power button.

Any one had a similar experience?
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
Did you try other kernels?

---------- Post added at 01:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:20 AM ----------

What is cache cleaner ng?
[G Tablet Android Development] kaneelias:
Started with stock. The slow down occurred on trial5. Now on trial 4 and over locked with cpumaster.
[G Tablet Android Development] hikouka71:
its pretty much what it says lol, its a cache cleaner that my phones rom maker has been including in his for awhile
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
I looked up the app and the developer says that if you feel it runs too slowly you should enable old cleaning method in the options.
[G Tablet Android Development] HighTech216:
dusted off the gtablet for this.

This is awsome. By far my favorite ROM so far. CM is great, but this just feels right on my tablet. Thank you so much for the work on this team!
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
What are your max and min set at?
[G Tablet Android Development] jlh11364:
Email and Maps

This is a very cool Rom. However, I have two problems. One is common with GB and HC Roms; Maps shuts the darn thing down. I believe I have read that the answer is to find an old 5.7 version of maps. Is this true? and does anyone have a link?

The other one is strange and maybe it is just me. I typically use three or more email accounts on the email apk.I love the look of this email app. However, once I added one account, there is no where to add another. am I missing something? or do I have to just download some other email app to get the job done?

Otherwise, I did a clean install. (version 2) I had just come over from Beasty. Only problem was the email connection problem on the first power up. After that, it went away.
[G Tablet Android Development] tcrews:
The last version of Maps to work on GtabComb and Flashback to my Knowledge has been Maps 5.9. I know 5.9 works as that is what is on my Wife's tablet (Flashback) and on my sister's tablet (GtabComb).
[G Tablet Android Development] jlh11364:
Thanks for the reply. Does anyone have an old copy? when you google it, all I get are old articles and if you try to download from the market, only the newest version is there.
[G Tablet Android Development] Abu-7abash:
This rom right here is amazing! 10.3 is by far the best release of this badass rom, thanks to you our beloved devs :)

Only thing left is the camera, as as ****y that one is, its very useful for chats. But as usual, no rush, you guys already done so much!
[G Tablet Android Development] jlh11364:
Market older version

Does any one have clean copy of 5.7 or 5.9? Google won't link to it and the market only shows the newest version.

Oops, sorry. I resent after doing some work.
[G Tablet Android Development] asimons81:

[G Tablet Android Development] kaneelias:
Ok, so speaking to some guys over at SlateDroid, they have recommended I do a full wip and format as I only did a clean install of 10.3.

I do have some questions about the process listed below from the front page though. Should I be doing all the wipes in point 5? and also if I format the SD card in the last step won't that remove the zip of the rom I previously copied. I see that formating the SD card is for advanced users, is this just setting the partition to 2048mb and a 0 swap file?

In that instance once I wipe the SD card, I will need to mount the SD card from Recovery and then flash it.

Is that correct?
[G Tablet Android Development] insight3fl:
On both 9 and 10.3 (only two versions I have used and they are great, thanks!) when I have an email sent to me with any attachments, I can not reply or forward the message with out being kicked out of mail client or out of the message open for reply.

Has anyone else been experiencing this and any fix?

Thanks again for the great work here
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
Which mail client?
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
Skip 5. There is no apparent reason to wipe your sdcard. If you still experience issues it may be necessary, but this should be enough.

Formatting erases the data, partitioning sets up the space boundaries.
[G Tablet Android Development] ticks:
if nothing works, then you may need to format and re-partition your internal SD. I had to re partition mine because the Flashback ROM was running so slow and it tends to freeze up during boot up. I tried everything - NV flash, clean install, nothing worked.

If you do re-partition, you need to mount your internal SD from using a USB cable afterward. tap Mount -> Mount USB then connect your pad to your PC. you need to copy the ROM back to your internal SD using USB cable

Has anyone got Shadowgun to work in this ROM? It is certainly not working for me.

Was it working in version 10.2?

It ran (on 10.2) but some of the graphics were missing like the gun, the bad guys your supposed to shoot, and some other stuff. I went back to froyo so I could play it and ill go back to fb after I beat it. Excellent game!

I couldn't get Shadowgun to run without really bad missing backgrounds and textures or just locking up totally in VEGAn 5.1.1. The only one that it ran smooth for me was when I ran Mountain Laurel 3.1 (also a FroYo ROM) which is found on another site (just Google it). It ran like a champ in ML 3.1.

That's not right and shouldn't happen. Might be something specific to your setup and/or Flashback. Stuff in /data should stay put. Find out what's wrong.
[G Tablet Android Development] kaneelias:
So after a full wipe and clean (option 3) on the OP, i have had to flash honeycombtrial5 as after a day I was getting the SOD's on the stock.

Previously when on this kernel i had no SOD's but the system would slow right down after around 20 minutes so i will continue to monitor.

I have also noticed on the kernel with this rom that the SOD's for me occur when charging and when wifi is enabled. Not sure if it helps but wanted to give some info for research purposes.
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
Has you tried our SOD thread? Unfortunately there is no great answer other than trial and error. Some tablets are just picky. In fact, on our dev team there is a tablet that SODs all of the time (any ROM, even stock) and we had to install softlocker on it which prevents it from sleeping.

Here is the thread just in case:

http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/224...age__view__findpost__p__238532__fromsearch__1
[G Tablet Android Development] kaneelias:
Cheers, yes i have seen that. That is where i got the Clemsyn kernels from. Fingers crossed the full wipe plus trial5 will work like it did with regards to SOD's but now prevent the slow downs.
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
Also, watch your over clocking. If your low is too low or your high is too high, it can cause the same instability issues.
[G Tablet Android Development] kaneelias:
I did not actually think of the low value, i believe it is set around 200 and max 1600, any suggestions from experience what they should be around?
[G Tablet Android Development] jacindc:
After being on FB for about a week, I moved to Beastly a week ago because I was just getting really tired of how slow Gmail and Google Reader were, and overall things just seemed sluggish (even after a wipe and format install) .

I decided to give FB another shot tonight, but this time after a format and wipe install, I've done two things differently: I installed no overclocker at all, and I turned off Gmail contact syncing after the initial download.

Wow, what a difference. Still not as speedy as Beastly, but a clear improvement from my previous FB install. Whether my changes are the reason or if there's some other benefit from a Beastly to FB install compared to a BoS to FB install, I'll be sticking with it for a while now.
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
I have always set my low two 456. My tablet seems to get very angry with me when it goes any lower. I have a hard time waking it up from a sleep and sometimes applications crash. However, your results will vary. The factory cannot build identical chips and every device is unique in regards to its tolerance. Just mess around and find the combination that works best for you.

Different approach to update to 10.3

I'm currently running 10.1 and since 10.3 only have the new kernel and WiFi driver I'm thinking just update those two manually (I don't care about Gallery3D in 10.2 and other things). Did anybody try that approach yet?
[G Tablet Android Development] jazzruby:
Hi ssnui,

That's fine to flash the pershoot kernel pkg (kernel/modules), just make sure to wipe Cache and Dalvik cache.

As always, make a NANDroid backup.

[G Tablet Android Development] nikkitan:
I am at [ROM - 1.2] Flashback Update 10.3 (12/07/2011)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is my theory:by Unclethrill

The SOD is not an actual sleep of death but a screen not responding issue. Hitting the power button wakes the G-Tab but the screen stays blank. This blankness leads to repeatedly hitting the power button and holding it down for a long period. This forces the Gtab to reboot and thus a sleep that leads to a reboot or SOD. By hitting the power button 1 time, the Gtab wakes up but the screen doesn't respond so hitting the vol+ button raises the volume and the screen 'wakes up' to display the volume meter. This method has worked for me for 2 days and based on the fact that the SOD had gotten so bad that I couldn't let the Gtab sleep or I was forced to do a reboot every time I think I may be on to something (or maybe I'm just lucky for a couple days).

Hope this helps someone and hopefully everyone.

MY Currently Flashback a10.3-

[ROM - 1.2]set cpu 1200-actual sleep of death.So what i did to stop SOD is: When the screen at sleep-Hit the power 1 time if the screen not wakes up THEN hit the VOL+ 1 and the POWER.worked for me.
[G Tablet Android Development] insight3fl:
I have done some experimenting with this problem as it is does not occur consistently. Since I use the Gtab almost exclusively for business, I use the email client all day long while on the road. Perhaps many of you do not have this issue due to the type of use of your tablet.

It appears that certain attachments and or certain messages that have been previously forwarded, are the ones that "screen" abort when it tries to render the reply or forward to "screen". I sent / forwarded various versions of HTML coded and non HTML coded emails along with a small adobe attachment under both versions and each one works fine. But, when I go back to my days worth of messages from various clients, some with attachements, some that have been forwarded to me cause the problem upon reply or my attempt to forward them.

Messages that have been sent directly to me with no attachments always seem to work fine for reply. Some that have been sent to me directly with attachments cause the problem. Conclusion at this point is ???????

I will keep experimenting and ask if any other users are familiar with this issues.
