version update

Active pen patch added to Post #1 .

this will now get the pen functionality running as an active pen with pressure registration.

in Quill app, buttons are still not right, but everything else is good.

settings might require settings as "samsung note" pen or Lenovo pen.

i will continue and figure out how to get buttons working correctly.

they do not really work as i want them to.

Request

someone can maybe tell me what function buttons got in Quill?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ICHAPMAN:
On my Flyer running Honeycomb (LeeDroid), Quill doesn't seem to acknowledge the buttons. In Papyrusthe Pen can be activated as a "HTC Scribe Pen", which then alllows for the top button (Secondary) to be an Eraser/Rubber and the lower (Primary) to be a selection tool.

I've not had chance to test these in your latest updates.

Thanks for your work

Iain,
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
well in this case,

lower (closest to tip/black dot) is rubber

and circle button just draws blue lines? ahhh, selection tool :) so you can copy/paste. Never used the pen for much here :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] indiziert:
Reporting on active pen in quill,

Awesome! Pressure sensitivity works!

The only minor,

It seem draw pencil strokes over pen button and vise versa.

Thanks for the effort, dex.

This should be mentioned in the OP...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] berbecverde:
It is, you just have to read it.

V1.4 DextersJB14 for HC/Hboot recovery - MD5 - a63df791706c02d18fbde752059de818

V1.2 DextersJB12 for HC/Hboot recovery - MD5 - 0c6a88f982adc35ee23b63faeee72b8e

V1.0 FlyerJB10.zip for HC/Hboot recovery - MD5 - cd2baa988c1e66e9f70e941dd70e7ece
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
it IS mentioned in Post #1, assuming you know that coming from a HC Hboot is equal to HoneyComb =HC?

anyways i will try to make that even more clear now.

for others.

until i get the version update, here is the working UsbToogleApp.

install into /system/app, and go into settings and clear data on this app. and it will work.

it seems to be a security issue with the new JB, which, although using root, got some default device and command permission which now will check more and you cannot use specific devices without i sent permissions openly or the app do not use regular permissions to check if something exists where it got no place to be :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MoiZie:
Am I the only one with a 32GB 3G flyer whose /data folder is completely empty after install of this rom? (1.2 and 1.4 with p1) I have completely no access to internal storage (the 23GB partition). Any ideas?

Edit: Tried to change /etc/vold.fstab to this;

dev_mount emmc /mnt/emmc auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.4/mmc_host/mmc2

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 33 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc0

No luck..

Edit2: really weird, my 'stock' vold.fstab (just after flashing) is completely different then the one in DextersJB14.zip\flyer\system\etc. (I'm not talking about the vold.fstab.bak)

No luck in replacing vold.fstab using that version either..
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] teorouge:
By any chance does it apply to ICS XXL as well? I see fixes are usually interchangeable. :confused:
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
if it suffers from that? yes, then it should help too.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
i am trying to add it to a different location in next update.

so its in /mnt/emmc, which is more common and probably better support in next cm10.

so yes, unless you manually mount at some location (i removed /data/media) its not there right now in 1.4, sorry.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MoiZie:
Can you give me a hint on how to do this? I've tried multiple vold.fstab configs, but they don't seem to work. Also; manually creating a folder like /mnt/emmc doesn't work, after reboot the folder is gone. (You need to add a folder to a linux system to allow the creation of a mount point on that folder, or does Android work differently?)

I'm guessing the internal app storage is block mmcblk0p29, system is 25 and cache is 30.

fdisk -l as su doesn't work?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
it require boot.img compiling and vold.fstab if it works.

the simple way forward, is to add a script for your personal changes into /etc/init.d and make a script that mounts at bootup.

if you are not happy with /mnt/emmc which will be up when i fix the pinch to zoom issue.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MoiZie:
boot.img compiling? On Lisbon rom I could just manually change vold.fstab to my likings and it would work?

Can you tell me which block device is the internal storage?

'mount' seems to be a sys only command, 'can't read /etc/fstab' which of course doesn't exist.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
/dev/block/mmcblk0p33 - internal storage flyer

/dev/block/mmcblk0p36 - internal storage view

/dev/block/mmcblk1p1 - normal external sdcard pos.

ill be putting a new image together now, seems i got pinch2zoom working, and multitouch in general. and pen functionality still intact.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MoiZie:
Will that include the internal sd card? Or was the comment unrelated to my earlier questions?

Edit: can't create screenshot because of no sd card available, but all titles in Settings are suddenly completely garbled. The letters like 'DEVICE' 'PERSONAL' are readible, as are the texts under for example WiFi SSID's; "connected, secured with ...'

The rest is scrambled.

Let's see if a reboot fixes this.. --> it does.

Edit: 'mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p33 /mnt/sdcard doesn't give an error, but it also doesn't show any files in es file explorer? What am I doing wrong?

Edit2; Woot; sdcard is finally mounted. changed 90userinit, added 'mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p33 /mnt/sdcard' and changed permissions to 750. Rebooted and 'mount' shows mmcblk0p33 is mounted to /mnt/sdcard as vfat!

(And disabled vold.fstab altogether... pointless)

Edit3; strange, sdcard now works on /sdcard and /mnt/sdcard (As intended through 90userinit), but titaniumbackup doesn't detect it's license key (altough it does recognize the SD partition...

Edit4; storage settings now FC's

Edit5; and Sygic doesn't detect a SD card either.. But I can browse it through ES file explorer. Let's try enabling vold.fstab again.

Edit 6; no go, and now all letters are garbled again, but this time on the 'desktop' screen.

Edit7; /sdcard and /mnt/sdcard seem to be read only... ideas? (mount; /dev/block/mmcblk0p33 on /mnt/sdcard type vfat (rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=cp437,ioch****t=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro) So it seems to mount rw, but system cannot write to it?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
lets just agree, that with JB its become alot harder security wise to change files. it is very sensitive now to changes.

like build.prop is no go with 666, it has to be 644, never seen that one before. :)

but wait and you get it in /mnt/emmc with my v1.5

and your current mount issue is probably as its mounted with wrong default permissions, so a regular filemanager cannot see any files (probably 500 as mask)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ICHAPMAN:
Dexter,

You are too bloody good...I've just downloaded the v1.4 and Pen Update, checked the MD5, uploaded to the Flyer and started to update.

No sooner do I start this and update is installing - you annouce the v1.5 release!.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MoiZie:
No strange thing is, es file explorer (and i've installed astro and root explorer also) can see /mnt/sdcard and it's contents just fine, they just can't write to it (although mount says it is mounted rw). I've also modified 90userinit to mount -o rw .... but no change.

90userinit is 750 (as are 01-load-modules) and the same is true for /etc/vold.fstab (but that doesn't do anything with my Flyer).

I'll eagerly await 1.5. What changes did you make to achieve /mnt/emmc mount?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] guai11:
Im huge fan of gokeyboard

but I try to type some word, it's like "III trrrrrry ttttttoooo some wwooord."
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
test screenshot function.

POWER button and VOL- at the same time. this is saved ok? (it works her)

so if you file explorer cannot write, it must mean something else.

just downloaded and tested, besides the configuration startup is sooo loong, i can type quite fast, but no problems here? maybe a v1.4 bug.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MoiZie:
Screenshot is made, but not saved to /sdcard/media/Screenshots (or something like that), because the system can't write to /sdcard (or /mnt/sdcard for that matter), despite 'mount' saying /sdcard is mounted rw. Probably the reason why Sygic, Titanium backup and all other sdcard using programs don't work (Even Gallery fc's with a sdcard error)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
forget all this, wait for the update.. it works fine. you probably got something mixed up adding the patch (maybe an old version of the patch :) )
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MoiZie:
ETA on upload? :o

I'm not quite convinced it will work, considering it didn't work on v 1.2 and doesn't seem to work on 1.4 with p1 included. (All full wipes of course).

But I'll wait and see ;)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] basti84:
Nice!

I think i will give the 1.5 a try.

Camera support is really nice 2 have!!!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ICHAPMAN:
OK, I've got an issue and I'm just hoping that I've not missed an instructions somewhere. For reference I've a Flyer 3G 32Gb. Whilst I have a 3G Flyer that has a valid SIM installed, I don't currently have a data option available on the PAYG SIM.

As indicated above I've installed the v1.4 installation, and during the instructions I've selected to include the 3G features, and allow for a full-wipe.

The Flyer has restarted and commenced the initial startup wizard and this is where I've got stuck. The Wizard asked me to select my language and then asks if I have a Google Account. I provide my account details and it imediately tried to sign in, and gets "stuck" showing:

Signing in...

This can take a few minutes

Now I guess the problem here is that it's busy trying to locate Google's system via the SIM. Normally in the HTC builds - and I've also sure this was the case in the Jelly Bean build (Jelytime) I'm using on my HTC Desire HD - before you get to this stage I'm asked if I want to connect to a wireless network.

Having left it for several minutes, I've tried the only presented option of "cancel" but whilst this has been acknowledge (the option has been greyed out) it continues to try and sign in.

Have I done some wrong in my installation, or is there something wrong with the order the installation wizard is functioning?.

Thanks

Iain
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
short: probably, yes.

it has been said/confirmed 3G works. whether this is during initial setup and 3G network initiate or if this is during regular use i do not know.

wifi as another story, is damn slow during initial setup, and connecting takes forever, so that connection i do not know how happens as i personally skip it and configure in regular setup.

but i cannot leave out setupwizard for now, since some provision of the apps expects setupwizard to run, and the bypass in the build.prop seems to have no effect here.

its a long story, but yes, /mnt/sdcard did not work well in previous versions, since /storage/sdcard0 was your external sdcard.

do note, i also mentioned you need to change the boot.img to use /mnt/sdcard, its is not just changing vold.fstab if AndroidOS should utilize it.

but it has been fixed in v1.5 since apps from Play can install and the problem causing /mnt/sdcard not to work early was found now.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
version update

V1.5 is online.

see post #1 for changes.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] basti84:
at the moment i have installed the leedroid hc rom with leedroid kernel ... is there anything i must do when i install the JB-Rom?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
just CWM backup, so you can revert if you wish. and WIPE before the install and answer yes to the wipe in the installer as well.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] KaseKasimir:
Updating to 1.5 now. Whats your next step for this Rom then? After testing 1.4 I would like to ask if you are making a little project called "user experience". After the Nexus 7 Jelly Bean is optimized for the 7" inch screen. But on some parts it doesn't fit with your Rom. In comparison to the Nexus 7 the contacts app seems a bit odd and there are some problems with widgets on the homescreen. Would be great to have the notification bar on top of the screens and the hardware buttons working again too.

These are just some ideas. I really love your work and I hope you will continue. If you need some screenshots of what I am talking about, I would be proud of helping you.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
1. i can problably get those last apps updated from them, since we work from the same build here.

2. I will look into a possible extra install option to skip 7" optimization for 160dpi, which will then enable use portrait/mobile look again.

then 120dpi is the tabletUI resolution, but quite small.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] basti84:
setup finished.

will test later .... will write my experience :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Andvoid:
Hi great job on the ROM its progressing well. Has anyone else noticed the speaker output is a bit flat? I remember Lisbon ICS ROM having the same issue in early release.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mitchellvii:
Are people having any luck with Flash working consistently if we sideload it? Netflix still dead?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ICHAPMAN:
Dexter - I'd be the first to admit that I don't know what I'm talking about in this arena - but I wonder if you've seen this thread -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1780970 why the Nexus 7 devs have been looking into how to modify there tablets from using the PhoneUI to the TabletUI. From reading this thread there is a suggestion that it is not necessarily a DPI change, and instead there is a variable that is being set.

As I say, not my field so apologies if I'm wasting your time - but perhaps worth a read?.

Boot Loop

Mine is looping on the Nexus logo. Just installed the 1.5 on top of 1.4 (no patch). Wiped everything.

Maybe I need to flash the boot.img with fastboot again?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] basti84:
thanks for the tip.

Perhaps you can clear the app cache and app data in the app-settings ... helped too ;)

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MoiZie:
Woops, was a bit premature! Sygic doesn't use emmc as SDcard.. weird! Not a bug in this rom I guess...

In other news; screen turns off automatically!

Edit; the SD card problem is far from over;

Chrome; can't download XXX, an SD card is required.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
do you actually see it in settings?, you might need to reformat your card, it could be NTFS formatted and only vfat is supported.

i can say its 100% working, and i get apps installed on my sdcard.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MoiZie:
No as I said already, I don't use an external SD, therefor all programs that want to use an external SD card can't find one. On for example ICS Lisbon this is fine, because the internal storage is mounted on /mnt/sdcard, but apparently apps don't automatically start searching for /mnt/emmc and placing their data in this location. No luck so far with Sygic, Navigon, CoPilot, Chrome. Working 'sd' functionality; titanium backup (after changing SD path in settings), Android (internal storage is visible in 'storage' under 'settings')
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
i can then confirm you are right.

let me see if i can get it to accept internal storage only.

a little story behind the actual flyer issue we got with internal storage.

JB standard vold, which comes with nexus release and with CM10, only support MAX partition id 4, and we got id 33 for our internal storage.

I either need to remap or find a hacked vold, which support more partitions, older versions are no good.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MoiZie:
Yeeeaahh I'm right on the internetzzzz!111 :victory:

I guess I'm depending on you!

Edit: Quickly went back to ICS Lisbon. the internal is mounted by default on /mnt/emmc, have the same problems with that rom, but at least I can change the vold.fstab there to allow mounting on /mnt/sdcard.

Installing 1.5 again to see if I can change vold.fstab there also (but working this time..). I'm gonna use an identical vold.fstab that I extracted from internalsd.zip in the Lisbon thread.

Edit 2; no luck.. Waiting for a fix, in the mean time I'm on Lisbon.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] tsuharesu:
Thanks, its working again =)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
sdcard and internal storage questions

Also noted in Post #1 as reference

Regarding SDCARD and INTERNAL STORAGE, READ!

A Note on JellyBean builds, the builds i have seen on other devices, all suffer the same new solution where storage is

kept which is /storage/sdcard0

there is no editions which i have been able to find, that got AndroidOS supported storage at multiple locations. all use just one which is the above mentioned location. even public OTA Nexus S release use /storage/sdcard0 per default.

if you got problems, you can always contact Cyanogen support on the topic, i cannot solve what many others take for being the new standard by Google, sorry.

Our internal storage is not compatible with JelllyBean as is, as it has been standardized that partitions above 5 is not supported, so our internal storage at location 33, is not AndroidOS supported

and can only be hardmapped to a directory you manually look into which i mapped to /mnt/emmc.

I will from now on, not comment on storage alternatives for both internal or external. you will get "see Post #1"

If you do find another build which got AndroidOS supported multiple locations (seeing more drives in Settings-> storage) i will be happy to look into how its done. but else, not possible for now.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MoiZie:
Thank you for this information. Is it possible / hard to create two builds? One where the location is hardcoded to /mnt/emmc and another where it is located at /mnt/sdcard, just for those few who don't use sd-cards?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] berbecverde:
Not trying to be a **** or something but i think it is easyer to buy a sdcard .
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MoiZie:
JBOD doesn't exist on android, so if I would use an SD card, it would only give me two separate data partitions to manage, backup, fill, monitor etc.

It's not an ideal situation, but it would provide some choice. Perhaps a different boot.img installation, that you can choose from aroma ;)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
whats the purpose? please read the topic again..

- internal storage is NOT supported, so no solution exists.

- manually you can do everthing, but it does not help apps using AndroidOS to find external storage and expect to get a reply of mnt/sdcard, which you manually mapped but system point to external, that is a no go.

i cannot continue this, this topic does not even exis´t on Transformer TF201, how to you think they handle 5 different storages :) manually. you can find an root app on Play which help you with this if needed.

Funny, I was gonna pre-empt this post earlier without even knowing it, but got sidetracked by toddler/parent swimming time...

Just a suggestion (what works for me)...

When switching from one ROM to another, be sure to wipe thoroughly (don't want rashy ROMs!)

This means:

1) factory reset

2) wipe cache

3) wipe dalvik (in recovery menu under advanced)

4)wipe system/data/cache manually (under recovery mounts)

Then in aroma installer, select wipe when prompted.

I typically back everything up (TiB, then nandroid, then reboot, mount SD and copy all folders from internal and external memory to a folder on my laptop... Back up your backups!), then reboot into recovery and perform the numbered steps... THEN flash the new ROM...

Hopes this helps.

The reason I was gonna post this earlier was to ask what exactly the Aroma installer wipes?

I chose the red pill... Now I'm in the mAtrix and I know Kung Fu... in HD!

Amazing!

Dexter:

I'm really amazed at how well this works. Brilliant effort!

The Pen works very well for selection and note-taking, but it's not quite complete for art purposes. I find that pen pressure sensitivity doesn't work with Sketchbook or Canvas.

I recommend Canvas (by John R. Oliver in Play Market) for testing: The free version has a full complement of Photoshop-like drawing and masking tools as well as layers.

I thought I had good-enough with IOIDroid's Senseless ROM. But this one gives me YET ANOTHER REASON to not buy a Nexus 7!
