The fix was a two-step thing:

1) A default setting had to be changed in the ROM (which was made in Nightlies #43)

2) You need to use an older GoogleBackupTransport.apk - for some reason I can't figure out, the version included in Gapps v10 doesn't work, but the one in V9 works.

You can either modify Gapps 10.3 to replace the bundled GoogleBackupTransport.apk with the version included in V9 and reflash that, or wait for TeamEOS to release an updated Gapps.

Yeah, see my other posts after that. Gapps v10.1 through 10.3 fails to register the transport correctly.
[Xoom Android Development] chattyuk:
Just upgraded to 44, forgot to install Gapps before I booted up but once I went back and installed them I realised that my calendar has also disappeared!

Can Titanium Backup still be used?

Noticing lately that most are now trying to rely on Google backup to save their settings, programs and such on google servers. Does Titanium backup still work with these functions? Honestly would prefer to use my own backup solution instead of my programs and settings, contacts being saved on Google's servers. Cloud is cool but mostly bring rain.

Downloading nightly 44 now. Nightly 43 seemed pretty good but can't wait to experience responsiveness improvements reported by others. Also purchased your app from the market as a small way to say thanks for all the great work by Team Eos.
[Xoom Android Development] RMerlin:
Correct. As long you don't wipe again, at which point you will lose the Google cloud transport.
[Xoom Android Development] DH1FR:
my App is missing.

befor update App and Data are ok.
[Xoom Android Development] RMerlin:
That Google Backup is nothing new or special - it's something that's already there in other Android devices such as the Xoom (Motorola ROM). It simply was broken in the EOS ROM until now.

It's not meant as an alternative to Titanium Backup, but as a complement. For instance, it will backup your application settings automatically. If you uninstall an application then re-install it, it will be able to retrieve the backup of your settings automatically (if they were saved on Google's servers).

Titanium Backup remains the best (and only) way to backup nearly everything. Well, next to a Nandroid backup, which, again, serves a different purpose, and truly backups EVERYTHING. Google's cloud backup will only backup settings for programs that actually provide a backup agent.

Look at it this way:

1) Nandroid. Disk imaging, backups everything, bit by bit. Great for doing tests, then reverting back to your *exact* previous configuration.

2) Titanium Backup. Backup software, must be run manually or scheduled. Backups almost everything, except for some configuration settings that can't be restored properly. Great for manually controlling what you want to reinstall.

3) Google's cloud backup. Backups automatically tablet settings (such as your Wifi settings), application settings and data (for applications that actually suipport it). Great for backing up your configuration settings without having to even think about it or install extra software. Makes recovering from a full wipe easier for cases where you do not want to restore everything as it was before.
[Xoom Android Development] cdred:
Thanks for the explaination. It was real helpful and insightful. Google backup sounds like it can be real useful. It's just looking at what happened with Sony last year, really made me rethink about having my personal information backed up on someone elses servers. Just the thought of someone being able to create a profile of me by seeing what kind of apps I use and how I use them because my settings are backed up on their servers is a scary thought. That's why I use apps like Titanium Backup to backup my programs and settings. Plus, if Google gets washed away like Seagate, won't be screwed.
[Xoom Android Development] RampageRR:
You aren't supposed to reboot between flashing the rom and gapps. Reflash the rom and gapps back to back, just wipe cache and dalvik cache beforehand. Should be OK then.
[Xoom Android Development] shakuyi:
so if we modify gapps 10.3 to use v9 GoogleBackupTransport.apk without wiping we will be ok?
[Xoom Android Development] DanielBoca:
Thank you MerlinR for investigating on this little thingy.

I've notices this in the past, that with a Motorola ROM after a wipe everything starts to reinstall automatically, I don't mind this :)

I also use the classical nandroid & titanium, but hey, it's nice if it's working :)

There's no rush now, we KNOW these are nightlies builds and we'll wait for teamos to release it.
[Xoom Android Development] CatfishKnight:
Google backup???

When I save a browser favorite website on my Xoom it always shows up on my phone's browser favorites and visa versa. Is this what you all are talking about not working?
[Xoom Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
Well I flashed 44 then gapps 9 then gapps 10.3 and still no account backup. I didnt wipe anything but cache and dalvik.
[Xoom Android Development] DH1FR:
no sorry, the same problem, there is no Calender App.
[Xoom Android Development] scottgti:
Start over. Wipe cache and dalvik. Flash 44 and Gapps 10.3. Then reboot. All will be good.
[Xoom Android Development] Prod1702:
Why do ppl even use Google backup when root gives you the great program called Titanium Backup which does everything that google backup does but better.
[Xoom Android Development] neblap:
For me because Google backup automatically backups my list of wifi networks that I regularly connect to, which is in excess of 20. No worries about having to manually re-enter the passwords. Google does it all as soon as I connect to their server.

Its only a minor thing but saves a lot of time and effort having to either remember the password of asking the Sys-op for the password.
[Xoom Android Development] yoshitweaky:
Not true. Tried that still no cigar. Titanium won't restore it either. Went back to 42 and restored it then went cleared caches 43 and gapps 10.3 all in one and calendar is gone again. Odd
[Xoom Android Development] DH1FR:
i have wipe cache and dalvik, after i have flash 44 and Gapps 10.3 and then reboot. all is fine but there is no calender app :-(
[Xoom Android Development] yoshitweaky:
Just tried another titanium restore of calendar app and it worked. But closes when going to agenda and I can't add appointments .

Oddly I rebooted and its gone again. V odd
[Xoom Android Development] Alxoom33:
zoom dosen't work in flash

I'm on 44 and almost everything is working great. I have noticed that I don't have to reload flash from the market to get it working. However, one issue is that when loading a flash movie from a website I can zoom incrementally, but when I press the full screen icon I get a white screen and lose the video. :confused:

Has anyone else noticed this problem. And yes I wipe c & d and flash the most recent gapps version with the update.

Thanks
[Xoom Android Development] Dyelon:
Just installed this....its ok so far but I have no Market?

What am I supposed to do to get a Market app? =(

btw I tried installing an apk from off the web about 6 times but every time the download either immediately "finishes" or i get an error installing from the browser....

sigh what the hell??

thanks in advance for any help
[Xoom Android Development] slacka-vt:
You need to install GAPPS like it says in the OP.

[Xoom Android Development] davidsos:
I went from Tiamat to Eos build 41 to 43 and now 44. Calendar works for me and syncs to my HTC Incredible phone. I just did a quick test. I'm using the latest EOS_GApps_ics_4.0.3_v10.3 . I just got a notification on both Xoom and phone. :) Looks good for me. I wonder what's giving other folks grief?
[Xoom Android Development] couchmonkey:
Just a random question, how come there is such a difference in size between all the night lies?
[Xoom Android Development] xfinrodx:
You consider < 9MB significant? There are changes. That is what nightlies are are about! If it jumped like 20% in size from one to the next I might expect to see something pretty significant in the change logs, but +-9MB is nothing to worry about.
[Xoom Android Development] dsbnz:
+1 , same config (44 & 10.3) and does seem quicker as mentioned by others earler.
[Xoom Android Development] yoshitweaky:
Ah well a full wipe and install sorted it all out. Happy days
[Xoom Android Development] davidmcw:
Confirming the calendar issue. Is this an acknowledged issue by the devs, or a hit and miss issue? Hopefully it will be restored in the next nightly.
[Xoom Android Development] Rob116:
Did you factory reset when upgrading gapps?
[Xoom Android Development] XXtremeAzzKicker:
no problems

Just flashed build 44 and happened 10.3 right over without factory reset, just the 2 usual wipes.....calendar and everything else works fine.
[Xoom Android Development] HuckFinn:
Not sure why people are having issues. I flashed 44 right over 43 with no wipes just made sure to flash gapps right after 44. Once I rebooted all was perfect.
[Xoom Android Development] liftman-:
I had a gapps problem that wouldn't fix it self with a factory wipe. (mine was music)

My tiatanium backup was from BEFORE I hose up the system playing with backuptransport in the gapps zip.

I would factory wipe, clear both caches a few times. then flash the rom.gapps then reboot and restore apps and system data(remember the backup was before being hosed) in tiatanium.

I tried this 2 times and the gapps problem persisted.

then the next thing I tried was a caches only wipe, then restored a known good nandroid backup.

rebooted once made sure all was well with gapps related apps and all was syncing right.

then went in and flash the rom gapps.

all is well

as I read this thread and the gapps related problem, it seems the factory wipe is not getting it clean out, but a restore of a good nandriod is :).

I read in a thread that one guy had to push stock files back on thru adb to clear up this issue,

then factory wipe, rom. gapps

I hope you all have a known good nandroid :)
[Xoom Android Development] cdred:
Running nightly 44 and all is working well. Even figured out how to get sipdroid and google voice working again. Do I have to reinstall google voice after flashing a new nightly? Looking forward to nightly 45 but hoping that installing the gapps package after a flash only applies to the package and not to google voice which is not included in gapps.
[Xoom Android Development] brandogg:
Running the latest (44) - Nothing bad to report on it, it is very nice! GTA3, Shadow Gun, N.O.V.A. 2 etc all run much fast than before. I am currently overclockex at 1.6 ghz, but even at stock speeds those games run faster than they did OC'ed on the last version I had running (40, I believe), and faster than the CM9 port as well. Good stuff, indeed!

The new filesystem tweaks seem to have broken support for Android File Transfer on mac. I can no longer transfer files to my internal space and the sdcard is not even recognized. Does anyone know a workaround for this?
[Xoom Android Development] cdred:
Don't know if this is a function of ics or just eos rom but you can now remove items from recent apps list by opening the list by tapping the double rectangle to the right of the home icon and then press and hold the item and drag it out and it leaves the list. Always wanted to know how to do that and was always told it couldn't be done. Hope this helps someone out. Great work Team Eos.

rsync backup for android over wifi

An observation...

Watching a movie with MX Video Player Pro and the video is great but the audio is off by like a 1/2 second when listening with by bluetooth Plantronics Voyager Pro ear piece. Like watching an old karate movie. Doesn't do it with plug in headphones. Is bluetooth audio/video sync mostly software or hardware driven? I like being wireless but that drives me nuts when watching a movie.
[Xoom Android Development] dsbnz:
I got no prob transferring files to/from Mac 10.6.8 to v44.
[Xoom Android Development] RMerlin:
No. What you describe has to do with Chrome Sync, which was already working. You just have to make sure that you only encrypt the Chrome passwords - if you encrypt all synced data, the Xoom won't be able to sync with it.

---------- Post added at 01:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:01 AM ----------

Did you actually boot at least once after flashing v9? If not, then your Xoom never had the chance to register the transport package.

---------- Post added at 01:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:02 AM ----------

For the reasons I explained? Google backup is automatic, and in the cloud. Titanium won't do you much good if your SDcard also got wiped by accident or something.

---------- Post added at 01:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:03 AM ----------

That's an ICS feature.
[Xoom Android Development] nukedukem:
Oh good maybe its just a problem on my end. Android File Transfer was running fine prior to my last rom update. Could be another Lion headache for me. At least I know to start problem solving on my end now.

What Happen to Calendar & Music?

after I update to build 47, both Android Main apps are Gone Missing?!

Is there a Fix going on?
[Xoom Android Development] neblap:
Updated to Build 47 and both Calendar and Music are present and working. Did you flash the Gapps zip after flashing Build 47?
[Xoom Android Development] HuckFinn:
I had something similar happen. The key is to be sure to flash gapps immediately after the nightly in the same recovery session. Do NOT reboot between the two. I have had no problems doing it this way.

I am not sure of the easiest way to fix your problem. In my case I flashed a previous nandroid backup, rebooted normally, verified the apps were there and working and then went back and did the above. Everything has been fine since. If you do not have a nandroid backup you may need to perform a full wipe and then do the above but I would say experiment first.

About FAT and NTFS Automount support

The automount USB devices with FAT works perfectly with both a USB key and with an external HDD. But the automount does not work with NTFS. So I can mount manually with:

#mkdir /mnt/ntfs && mount -t ntfs /dev/block/sda1 /mnt/ntfs

But I cannot dismount with umount /mnt/ntfs or umount -l /mnt/ntfs. Always return device is busy. I tried Disk Mount and Usb Mass Storage OTG, so both has problem after dismounting devices, freezing and force closes. Is it possible to have NTFS automount support in the future?
[Xoom Android Development] okantomi:
As I wrote above, I can use Drive Mount to mount and safely unmount NTFS drive. I've never heard of Disk Mount.

I just tested wifi tethering my wifi Xoom to my HTC Incredible and it works. I'm using the latest nightly build, but I remember it working on the last build as well. Whew, I'm going to need it tomorrow. Perhaps your problem lies elsewhere or something went wrong with your install.
[Xoom Android Development] neblap:
The Incredible runs Android 2.2 and thethering is in Infrastructure mode on 2.2 and above. This is why you can tether. People not able to tether are using an ad-hoc mode only device. EOS ICS does not support ad-hoc mode at present.

You should find the thumb drive at media/usb.
[Xoom Android Development] Legato Bluesummers:
Yeah I don't agree with that at all. Cause my Droid x on both froyo 2.2 and gingerbread 2.3 could not connect to my wifi xoom or Samsung galaxy tab until I installed the wifi ad hoc files on the xoom and the wifi supplicant file as was the case with the tab. Being on 2.2 or above means nothing. At least with Motorola devices. I connect fine to my bionic now without issues. That is running 2.3
[Xoom Android Development] neblap:
Its was not a fault with Android that you could not tether on your Droid X or your SGT. Look to your cell provider. Verizon blocked tethering, they even prevented people from seeing third party tethering apps in the market at 1 time, along with AT&T and T- Mobile, not sure if they still do. And if you side loaded a tethering app many found it was still blocked.

Infrastructure tethering is a part of Android on 2.2 and above. Look to your cell provider and not Android if it is not available on your phone
[Xoom Android Development] Legato Bluesummers:
I was using wifi tether on my Droid x for the better part of a year before VZW cracked down and started blocking it. At which point I started paying for it. ;-)

Either way the galaxy tab couldn't connect until I used a modified wifi supplicant file that added ad hoc abilities. Same thing with the xoom. Would not work until I modded the ad hoc.

Now maybe newer phones are different cause I tether anything to my bionic. But for my Droid x, on either OS, it just wouldn't jive.

[Xoom Android Development] RobBull69:
Try using bluetooth tether instead of wifi. I never used it on by G2 before, but my wifi on my phone broke (hardware issue) and I started using BT tether instead. It's native if you're running an ICS rom on your phone or you can use the WiFi tether app, which has an option to tether via bluetooth. I started tethering this way because of necessity, but I have to say that my phone doesn't run as hot and battery drain is minimal using BT tether.
[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
That commit was reverted because the mod we all used in Honeycomb does not work. Rest assured adhoc is on the agenda.
