For those with issues installing the tablet UI patch, it's because of poor testing I have done prior to pushing the changes out. I edit the script using word pad which is what cause the "Status 6" the correct file has been uploaded. Just apply the patch as if you were installing the rom.

Also for those that's been asking for 2.1, I think it's because I forgot change the title of this thread to RC 2.2 after we moved to 2.2.

WiMax is not being worked on at the moment. The primary focus is Bluetooth. which is very difficult as it involves vendor bluetooth driver (close source)... I am not sure when or if I would be able to get it to work.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
do note, my changes are actually an improvement compared to the ghost behaviour of the touchscreen based solution.

you have the pen flying 0.5inch away and still following pen behaviour, i know some actually felt it was a nice feature but for professionals i doubt the inaccurate reading lifting the pen would make the old edition quite unstable in daily use and you lose the pressure controls as well.

but people have preferences and i personally found the old touchscreen way more or less inaccurate, since the ghostbehaviour is annoying.

so the improvement is actually an improvement towards usability, but again, you cannot make the whole world happy.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] postscript:
Actually, as superficial as this may sound my largest issue with the fix is the 'always on' cursor arrow. I found that the cursor breaks the illusion of 'writing on the screen' for me. Beyond that, I find that the current version (2.2 Dexter's pen) -- for me at least -- maintains that the pen is on the screen even when I am a reasonable distance away. This causes me to have bridges between my notation that otherwise would not be there. Having said all of that, I found that the method used in 2.1 behaved strangely in some applications. In particular, the ink would be far larger than it should be in some instances (a bug I assume). I am sure there is no perfect solution right now. If I get some time tonight or tomorrow I will play with the solution presented above. Given the choice I much prefer the v2.2 rom but I do need the inking to be functional for my workflow. Thanks again everyone for all of your help and work on this rom!

WiFi not working

I have installed RC 2.2 over the top of DeSensed HC Rom, and could not get WiFi working. After searching the threads, I tried resetting to stock HC with Kevin Rocksmans tool. After a fresh flash, still no-go on WiFi. Any suggestions? I do not have 3G activated or Sprint service.

Outside of that, everything looks great. Can't wait to try it with data!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] yncconsulting:
Did you wipe everything prior to installing?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] n8dogg515:
Data/Cache/Dalvik along with factory reset. Am I supposed to format System too?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
agree, but thats a JB issue, not pointer or driver issue.

CM10 has fixed this to be an option to enable or disable in new releases :=
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] voldomart13:
This tablet will never be picked up by the CM team will it...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Keyfloatz:
I installed the rom a week ago, and I really like it. I have a couple of issues, and not to complain but to report. When I switch between wifi hot spots I have to turn the wifi off and on. I am having trouble with the gps too. I can get a lock sometimes, but not when driving. The scrolling bug is one of the biggest issues for me, but I'm still using this as a daily daily driver.

Thank you for putting JB on the view, it is clearly Androids best operating system yet.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jinxmeistr:
What kind of problems are you having? My Wifi is working today and always was able to connect to secured ones, but I originally had a problem with hidden networks. I had to apply a diiferent wpa_supplicant file to get it to work. I can post instructions if that's the case.

---------- Post added at 09:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:31 AM ----------

I do prefer dexter's code version of the pen in this RC 2.2 release. It was not very usable for me to have the pen write before it hits the tablet. NOt only was it disconcerting but as dexter said annoying as well. I'm using Papyrus with it - and I love how it functions, even if the cursor is visible. I do recall in the original stock HTC rom, that cursor can be disabled. I don't know if that is something that can be done as a configurable item on the next release.

REgardless - I'm thankful for this rom! :good: Can't wait for the BT. I hope ync that you don't give up. I know you mentioned its difficult but I'm cheering you on!

VPN Connection issues

Hi yncconsulting,

Sorry to bother you - I know you're buried deep in BT code, but just wondering if you have time to look at those VPN logs I sent to see what the issue might be. I contacted my VPN supplier and they confirmed they can log in on their JB device with my credentials, so think it might be a ROM issue

Update

----------

As a test I tried the free DroidVPN and was able to get the free US server connection working - not sure if this helps or not. Not a solution for me, as I need the UK server ( I could pay $4.99 a month for this, but already use a service that I've paid yearly for)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] postscript:
Sorry this may seem like a naive question then, but would this trickle down to these other ports? I am not sure if CM10 is working for the Flyer but it is unlikely that the View will ever see a CM10 port.

Oddly enough I have seen the ghosting behaviour with this rom and not the previous version. I am going to try reinstalling the rom to see if it fixes that part. I could probably live with the cursor if the pen didn't start writing even when I am not near the screen. Although no cursor would be great :).
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jinxmeistr:
I was able to get a GPS lock by re-flashing the stock HTC ROM - instructions are on this thread. Remember to back up before doing so so you can reflash RC22 back. You may lose "su". I had to apply that in before I can restore my back-up.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] yncconsulting:
BT is partially working.... able to find and be found and pair with. But transfer failed with authorization error...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] n8dogg515:
I now have Wifi working. Changed my security from 128bit WEP with hidden SSID to broadcast SSID with WPA2. Running great, it was about time I changed my wifi settings anyway. Not sure if that is a bug or by design. So far everything else that hasn't been reported running awesome, thanks guys, and keep up the good work.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] yncconsulting:
Now I am able to send and receive files. Will try bt headset when I get home tonight....yeah!!!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jinxmeistr:
AWESOME! :) Can't wait to give it a shot
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Keyfloatz:
I used the multi tool to flash honeycomb, and made a nandroid backup. Could I just nandroid restore and re flash rom ?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jinxmeistr:
After I did a CWM bakup, I flashed the stock ROM and tested GPS first. Then yes you should be able to restore as long as you have superuser binaries. It will complain anyway if u dont.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Keyfloatz:
Thanks jinx I found the instructions on this thread, I believe it is page 75. I am curious to see how google now assists with your schedule and estimates time to leave, etc.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] davemw2:
Any chance you could get video out working on this rom? Everything else that you've accomplished thus far has been great! Thanks for putting your time and effort into making this!

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] microshiroku:
Very nice rom, 3g works, video works, everything i tried works except usb and wifi tethering. Usb tethering always force close. And wifi tethering client never get ip/connected.

Good Job!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] yncconsulting:
You can soon add bluetooth to that list.

Tested bluetooth file transfer, bluetooth tethering (using the internet on my phone), bluetooth headset control works but the sound doesn't work... Have not tested keyboard as I don't have one. Once I get the sound to work I will make another release.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] thewadegeek:
Just out of curiosity what was the bluetooth fix?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] cfoesch:
The one major thing I've been waiting on is BT, so I can use my keyboard. I'll definitely be testing it two seconds after I flash the updated ROM, and give you a definitive "yes, it works" or "no, it doesn't"...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] yncconsulting:
I have spent 4 weeks on bt, it's kind of hard to say what fixed it. Since I tried over a hundred changes in various areas. Basically whenever there is an error I tried to fix that.

So for example, set line discipline failed was fixed by including H4 protocal in the kernel. Or DBUS issue involves starting the bluetoothd daemon a seconds later....adding SDP to kernel so that bluetoothd daemon wouldn't complaint....so on so forth.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] thewadegeek:
Ok makes sense. I was just wondering if there was a "silver bullet" that fixed it.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] smuvman:
weird errors

anybody else get these errors? image781 is what i see when the tablet is powering on. image782 pops up randomly. I have no clue why this is happening. i have uninstalled several times and started from scratch. also, can anybody point me in the direction to change busy box from 1.15? i have tried busybox installer, deleting busybox in the zip and replacing it with 1.16 and 1.20 but 1.15 comes right back after i reboot. any help would be greatly appreciated.

CGROM RC 2.3 Change Log

Change log

Bluetooth obviously

wifi fix for hidden network.

youtube HD video fix.

Disable hw key
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
sounds like you got a close to proper working rom now :)

IAMCHUCKY fixed the fling issue on the flyer, which i am sure you can benefit from too. find his github edition and modified ntrig_v2.c here

can you share the bluetooth changes to kernel (what options enabled or added?) possible init.rc changes? i am sure flyer users would appreciate seeing bluetooth working if possible. i believe i can figure out the libs requirement or changes more easily.

and by asking i assume you can give your permission to use the changes, if those are possible to use on flyer.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] CapnColorado:
weeeee! Thanks so much ync, I've been religiously keeping your awesome work on my radar and am continually pleased with each release. I will give my bt keyboard a try as soon as I flash and let you know how it works.

I can't thank you enough, when I bought the view in Jan. I was just learning about android and I was so disappointed at the lack of development. You've single-handedly (ok, there was a little help from a few kind folks along the way :), not only kept this device alive, but made it my prized android toy... with a droid 3, bionic, htc inspire, and dropad a8 sitting on my shelf collecting dust! Very fine work sir, very fine indeed.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Keyfloatz:
Is this change included in the 2.2 version or will that be a separate release ?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] CapnColorado:
It appears to be a new release, RC 2.3... I don't think he's uploaded it quite yet though, at least I don't see it yet.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] yncconsulting:
Sure why not. I'll give you the options enabled in kernel and the binary you need to copy. Also there is a change in init.rc.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] yncconsulting:
Kernel

CONFIG_BT_L2CAP_EXT_FEATURES=y

CONFIG_BT_SCO=y

CONFIG_BT_RFCOMM=y

CONFIG_BT_RFCOMM_TTY=y

CONFIG_BT_BNEP=y

CONFIG_BT_HCIUART_LL=y

CONFIG_SERIAL_BCM_BT_LPM=y

init.flyer.rc --- replace the existing one and remove btld service if you have it.

service hciattach /system/bin/brcm_patchram_plus --enable_hci \

ROM.

Copy the following files from my upcoming 2.3 rom

/system/bin/bluetoothd

/system/bin/brcm_patchram_plus

/system/lib/libbluetoothd.so

/system/lib/libbluetooth.so

/system/lib/libbluedroid.so

Also add this line to method get_adapter_path right before the "for loop" in

frameworks/base/core/jni/android_server_BluetoothEventLoop.cpp

//YNC add 1 sec before start to allow bluetoothd to setup dbus.

usleep(1000000);

If you get issue with sound not flowing then try getting the following file...ONLY GET THIS FILE IF SOUND IS NOT GOING TO BT. There is some hard code value which I am not sure will apply to flyer.

/system/lib/hw/audio.a2dp.default.so

Try this and let me know if how it works out. I might have forgot somethings but I think this should work. I'll be uploading the new ROM later today.

Also if you want to try it, you can also get the /system/bin/wpa_supplicant binary to fix the hidden network issue.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
On behalf of Flyer community,

thank you

i just hope it all works out :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jinxmeistr:
Thanks! Can't wait to give it a try. :) I believe BlueTooth is the last major thing needed for this ROM!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] yncconsulting:
On behalf of the View community I thank you and IAMChunky for your help on the fling issue! :cool:

btw, do you guys have any issue not being able to download apps from the market/playstore?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] nawawi:
Yes when 2.2 installed on my view, I can't install Path, Whatsapp and some other app, market say that this app not compatible with your device.

I wasn't asking the view users. I was asking Dexter if the flyer have the same issue and if not what are they doing differently.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] yncconsulting:

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jinxmeistr:
Thanks! I did a quick test - I'm able to connect via bluetooth and confirm that it works ... headset and my phone. Also confirmed that GPS is still working, can do satellite locks. Hidden networks on Wifi can be found and still connect! Thanks ync - God bless you and your wife! :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] yncconsulting:
If no one reply it most likely means that no one has the answer. Also if the question is not very common like the busybox issue you raise, you need to provide more details, for example what are you trying to install, maybe provide a link to the app or zip you're trying to install.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
Path is found on Play and installs. WhatsApp can be downloaded and installed as well.

i believe having Nexus S

ro.build.description=soju-user 4.1.1 JRO03E 403059 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=google/soju/crespo:4.1.1/JRO03E/403059:user/release-keys
ro.build.characteristics=default
ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-google
ro.build.tags=release-keys

including the Phablet hack to give the fake 721dpi density (normally only calculated in 120density config)

"CGROM.phoneUI=true" = hack? (maybe handled incorrectly?)

all the changes might be giving the Flyer the enabled Play options, but honestly i am not sure, i just read the Play store is now checking density values for tablet/mobile difference and probably still alot of the build.prop details too.

2.3 build.prop seems to include "ro.build.type=userdebug" as its not final.

the fingerprint also seems invalid
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] yncconsulting:
"CGROM.phoneUI=true" is just to enable phone ui, which the default with out the 721dpi hack. but either way doesn't change anything.

So basically in your finger print, you're faking the device as a Nexus S correct? I think that might work. I'll give it a try. thanks.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] yncconsulting:

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mumbles202:
Love the Rom and glad to hear bt fixed with the new version so I can test my bt keyboard on it. Just a quick question, how do you freeze the activation screen? My view is WiFi only so I have to cancel out every time I boot. The gb fix I had found doesn't seem to apply.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Paul22000:
Awesome! I've been following this closely for the past few months waiting for Bluetooth. Thank you! Amazing work!

As to actually installing this ROM, coming from a completely stock Honeycomb build, what is the process?

Note that the "steps" in the first post state:

Coming from a completely stock Honeycomb, I don't have Recovery/nandroid access, so obviously that makes no sense.

Can anyone point me to the initial instructions for transforming a completely stock Honeycomb View to this ROM? Thank you! :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AuronHTC:
You need to download and use kevinrockmans android tool to downgrade to GB and from there you can begin the upgrade process to rooted honeycomb and then to this rom.

Its a fairly long process. Give yourself an hour - dont rush - and it will go smoothly.

Link to Kevin's app should be a sticky on this forum. Also, make sure you are clear on all the steps before you start. Ask if you need help!

OK, this was typed with my BT keyboard, so yeah, there seem to be some quirks, probably something to always do with BT... but it works. In general. On principle. Generally....

It appears that it might just be problems with Chrome... it's behaving weirdly... like shuffling visual elements erratically on this very page... Could it also be flash? I know it's not technically supported, but would it cause graphical glitches?

Thanks to everyone responsible for getting this working especially ync, it's excellent. I'm having one problem. How do I see the external SD card to flash from? In recovery, I can't find the gapps.zip or tablet.zip files I've copied to the tablet. I must be copying them to the internal storage.

Thanks!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AuronHTC:
Move the zip files from the internal sdcard's download folder to sdcard2's root folder using ES file explorer. Do this before booting into recovery.

Also I had an issue a few versions ago that caused my recovery to not see the external sdcard if I had the tablet connected to a charger. Fix was to unplug tablet before starting recovery. Hope that helps you!
