Permission request to scanno: can I use his rom as base for Remics-Vega??
[Vega Android Development] scanno:
If you want to use this for a new rom go ahead. Just give the credits for the work done (also ejtagle and brucelee666)

Modifications to the standard AOSP source code can be found on my github. Also the kernel sources are there too.

They are not up-to-date yet.

If you find solutions to problems in the ROM, give them back to the community so they can also be used in other ROMS.
[Vega Android Development] Vlad87do:
yes ofc i will.

Is there Host-Driver in the kernel included ?

I am searching developers for Advent Vega device : http://remics.bennz.eu

If you have interests to join Remics-Team pm me! ;)
[Vega Android Development] scanno:
If you mean USB host... Yes it is... On my github there are the sources of the 3.1.10 kernel (based on the rel-15r7 version of nvidia) with the patches ejtagle made. But they are not up to date yet.

As soon as i have time i have to clean up the lunch target of beta1 and do a commit on github. Then you can fork from there and build a version for yourself. If you use the manifest file for vegabean you also get the modifications made to the framework, wpa_supplicant etc to make it all work.

See https://github.com/scanno

Again do not use it yet because they are not up to beta 1.

Thanks for the offer, but i do not have time to do a lot of work and join a development team. For the development of roms for the advent vega i would prefer and suggest that you and the Remics team go to the modaco forum and join the kernel development thread and join the efforts.

This way we have more changes of getting a very good base and from there make ROMS. The more roms to choose from, the better for the people using an advent vega.
[Vega Android Development] Vlad87do:
Thx for answere, but i dont will compile it , i will use the ready zip file and edit it.

I am not a kernel-developer :)

thats why i asked you about team ;)
[Vega Android Development] scanno:
Ok... but again all help is welcome, but you know that. Besides kernel development is done by EJtagle and not by me. He reversed engineerd most of the device specific vega stuff.

Also... /system/lib, /system/framework, /system/usr, /system/app are squashfs filesystems. To access the files in there you have to unsquash them.
[Vega Android Development] Vlad87do:
do you can tell me programm on windows how to unsquash and again to squash after editing ?
[Vega Android Development] scanno:
Sorry... I am using Linux and it is available in the repository there. On windows I really do not know. You could Google to see if there are any hits on mksquashfs and unsquashfs. That are the tools used on Linux.

You will need to find a version that supports XZ ( LZMA2) compression. That is the compression algorithm used in vegabean.

This is needed because otherwise the ROM does not fit in the /system partition.
[Vega Android Development] Vlad87do:
very nice!

7zip can do it under windows - unpack

How can i do a donation?
[Vega Android Development] Tesno:
It's faster than hc/ics for sure. I've had a bit problems, had to install moddedstock again. Launcher froze for 10 seconds last time I booted. I think I would prefer the natural dpi. If it's possible I'd like to have this as an alternative in the future.

Biggest problem is to get some games to work on Vega and Jellybean doesn't help with this, if someone wonders. One of the main reasons why I'm thinking of buying something new, Nexus7 for example.
[Vega Android Development] Vlad87do:
you cant change DPI , that would break you ROM ... and you will need to reflash it again :(

Do not compare Nexus 7 and Advent Vega tablets ;)
[Vega Android Development] Tesno:
Yeah, I know. I just think that screen looks all blurry with current DPI. Also, I don't really care about androids tablet interface, I used gingerbread for a long time in vega and I still think it's good enough.
[Vega Android Development] MrBC:
Can I ask why you put Superuser in the rom and not SuperSU. It was my understanding that Superuser did not work right on JB and that you needed SuperSU.
[Vega Android Development] chaosgerbil:
Many thanks for this rom, works really well on our Vega. There is the occasional freeze that requires a reboot but for a device that should still be on 2.2 we can cope with this. Amazing work, keep it up.
[Vega Android Development] scanno:
I have not had any problems with Superuser so far. Besides Superuser has sources that can be integreated into the build.
[Vega Android Development] scanno:
@All

See second post. Beta 2.2 in Full and stripped version available also in CWM and NVFlash. Not much changed.
[Vega Android Development] mrdan:
Don't reboot

Hi,

I test the beta 1, and work very well.

I test also the beta 2.2 (to resolve audio HDMI output problem), it work like a charme, but when I push the power button and set REBOOT, the tablet don't want. The screen stay blank.

I tried to re-install it, but the problem is the same.

I tried also the beta 2, but also blank after reboot.

I use the CMW version because the exe, don't want to boot after installation.

How to resolve this problem ?

Thanks, this is a very good job

PS : I have the Viewpad 10s tablet
[Vega Android Development] superseagull:
firstly - big thanks to all involved x

sadly the 2.2b exe is not working at all on my vega - it gets stuck in continuous boot cycle where the back-light goes on and off but it never gets as far as the boot animation - will try downloading the exe file again before reverting to cwm.

will report back later.

update:

okay the exe version consistently fails on both of the kids vega tablets as described above so i reverted back to vegacream rc2 and again flashed vegabean 2.2b but this time the cwm version from the sd card.

the first vega installed fine first time and still working as it should after several installations and reboots - gui is fast and smooth - so far so good!

the second vega was only able to boot okay after the second cwm installation (still no exe joy) - the first cwm install left the tablet with black screen and back-light on and I am getting the same again after first reboot as described by mrdan above.

touch-screen on both units were over sensitive, particularly noticeable using the stock on-screen keyboard for text entry.

hope this helps and thanks again, al

VegaBean - a good Rom

i use version 2.3.

thank for this rom, i like it.

it's fast, stable, only little bugs... ;)

wlan on/off is a little prob for me.

but a big prob: i can't remove apps in system/app...?

rootexplorer or adb, no chance?

Filesystem is read only
[Vega Android Development] yani2000:
"- /system/app, /system/lib, /system/fonts, /system/framework and /system/usr are Squashfs filesystems."

Yeah, this means it's a read-only filesystem (no delete or paste is possible).

If you want more info, google for "squashfs".

First few links (sf, wiki) will give you more than enough info.
[Vega Android Development] mackowiakp:
From terminal (as ROOT) run:

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

And then (as ROOT too):

create on sd card file named for example /mnt/sdcard/vega with content:

echo 1 > /sys/usbbus/host_mode

And than run:

cat /mnt/sdcard/vega >> /etc/vega_postboot

Thats all

Auto Rotation not working

Hello *,

Auto Rotation didn't work on my Point of View Mobii Tegra. Any ideas 'bout that?

I did several clean installations with NVFlash, Full wipes etc. etc.

8 GB SD Card layout is 1. primary partition FAT32 with 6 GB and 2. primary ext4 with 2 GB.

For the rest a very smooth und fine ROM - well done! :good:

Regards,

JoergHH
[Vega Android Development] JoergHH:
As you were!

After the last Full Wipe Auto Rotation now functioning!

BUT:

1. Why did the Apex Launcher vanished?

2. Why did the setup assistent still remembers my WiFi password - dispite Full Wipe?! :eek:

Regards,

JoergHH
[Vega Android Development] scanno:
What version did you install? If you are using vegabean beta 3-1 or higher, please install the touch recovery rc2 version. Because from beta 3-1 and higher the int2ext script is implemented and it puts data on the ext partition. Recovery versions other then rc2 will not wipe the ext partition and may result in strange things happening.

Plase use the beta 5 nvflas version.
[Vega Android Development] JoergHH:
I DO have used the Beta5 FVFlash version!

But in between I flashed JellyPad. It may be truth that some data left on the ext4 partition. So I will do again a Full Wipe and clean/reformat the whole SD card incl. ext4 partition separatly thru Gparted.

Sorry for confusion, thanks anyway, scanno and - good job! :good:
[Vega Android Development] jasdinggo:
I just downloaded and flashed my ViewPad 10S using VegaBean RC5 NVFlash. When it finished flashing, I reboot my device, but it's stuck in the booting screen. I waited for almost an hour, it's still in that condition. I tried 5 times, and no change.

Is there anyone who has same problem like me? And what is the solution for this?

Thank you.
[Vega Android Development] vujke025:
Have you formatted the sdcard before flashing?
[Vega Android Development] jasdinggo:
Yes I have. I use 3 partition:

1. Primary, FAT32

2. Logical, Ext3

3. Primary Linux Swap

If there's something wrong with my setting, let me get your advice.

In 1 of my experiments, I don't even use my SD Card.
[Vega Android Development] jasdinggo:
Update:

Based on your "signature" :D I have changed my partition. Now I have 2 partitions:

1. Primary (FAT32)

2. Primary (Ext4)

And it works like a charm.

I also have downloaded your "signature" :D ROM :good: Thank you very much.

1 Question: Seems it supports for phone call. But my microphone is not working for speaking even for google voice search. I can only check my balance in the phone call. Is there any advice? Thanks.
[Vega Android Development] TheFes999:
Is there a way to temporarily unroot the device? An app I would like to use, does not work on rooted devices. I tried Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper, but it does not seem to work on this tablet.

Any suggestions?
[Vega Android Development] yani2000:
You didn't read the Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper's system requirements:

And this ROM's /system partition is in Squashfs!

It means temp unrooting is a pain!
[Vega Android Development] GAh2402:
Hi Guys,

Currently have VegaCream RC2 on my Advent Vega, but would like to try the VegaBean ROM. However, I have a 16Gb SD card in my Vega, and my Windows machines (XP or Win7) have never recognized it (maybe because of the size?), so I'm struggling to create partitions on the card. I did try using the partitioning utility in the recovery program on VegaCream to create a 1Gb EXT4 partition, but I still get stuck at the VegaBean boot screen, so I assume the partitioning didn't work!

Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

GAH
[Vega Android Development] andy_pp:
could it be your pc's card reader doesn't support large (SDHC) cards?

You can pick up an SDHC reader on ebay for £1, then repartition in minitool or whatever.
[Vega Android Development] waynefox:
I also have this issue. Flashed via NVFlash twice, No SD card installed

Stuck on boot screen saying "Please Wait....." For how long must I wait??

Edit: Flashed with VegaCream and that works fine. Tried VegaBean again and stuck on boot screen

It appears that this is a 150MB Boot Screen :)
[Vega Android Development] GAh2402:
Hi andy_pp,

Thanks for the reply.

Android recognises the microSDcard as 16GB, but GParted can't partition it, and Windows can't read it via a USB or a SD/MMC adaptor. My 2GB microSD card from my BlackBerry is recognised by all these devices, so I've accepted the 16GB card is faulty and I've ordered a new 8GB card.

GAH
[Vega Android Development] waynefox:
Thanks for the Help/Advise, I will flash with VegaCream and wait until the rest of the OS is included with VegaBean:good:
[Vega Android Development] andy_pp:
2GB was the largest the old SD readers could cope with, so I'm afraid it still doesn't prove your readers can handle the newer SDHC (>2GB) standard.

I'd be tempted to order a USB SDHC reader anyway, as they're so cheap now, but I guess you'll find out soon enough when your 8gb card arrives ;)
[Vega Android Development] GAh2402:
Hi,

8GB card arrived, Windows reads it fine. Managed to partition it using Gparted, flashed via NVFlash mode, and got my pad to boot to the point where it searched for a wirleess connection. However, nothing happened, so I re-booted after wating half an hour and now it won't boot at all!

Guess I'll need to start again!

[Vega Android Development] Sneil:
Dear Scanno,

I have tried all of your guidelines, but mijn POV Mobii tegra won't go further then the boot screen.

I tried NV flashing it with this options :

NV flash over stock

NV flash over moddedstock (v1 and v2)

NV flash over vegacream(which also didn't work)

NV Flash over Cyagenmod(which did work)

CMW install over cyagenmod.

It doesn't stall, because the boot screen comes up and it says please wait.....

I tried letting it on all night, didn't get past the boot screen.

I also have formatted my SD card as mentioned in your post.

What else can I do?

Thanks in advance,
[Vega Android Development] okti:
Flash vegacream.exe then reboot to cmw, do full wipe and flash vegabean.zip

That should help you

Why aren't people partitioning using CWM? Should I not do that? ...or maybe the Tablets CWM doesn't have that option? ...but my phone's CWM does.
[Vega Android Development] GAh2402:
Hi Guys,

After a 2nd fresh install (obviously I re-partitioned my SD card too), I got my Vega working. Great work and well done to everyone involved. However, I find it a bit on the slow side, and occasionally it seems to "hang" before eventually resonding to my button presses. Not too sure if this is a consequence of pushing the hardware to it's limits, or perhaps it's the speed if my SD card. I'll re-flash with the latest build (Beta 6) to see if there's any difference, but if not I may go back to VegaCream.

Regards,

GAH
[Vega Android Development] Sneil:
Thanks, but still no result

Thanks for reacting Okti,

But sadly also vegacream flashing won't work. It also gets stuck on the boot screen. So a full wipe and then zip install through CWM is not possible for me.

Anybody else got an idea?

Thanks in advance,
[Vega Android Development] hktmt:
It is amazing, can make and receive phone call. Thanks so much.

The system after phone call becomes unstable and Wi-Fi often disconnected. Hope it can improve by next beta.
[Vega Android Development] scanno:
I would suggest you completely reformat your sdcard, both partitions (fat32 and ext4)

Then flash the vegabean beta 6 nvflash version. This will make sure that you will have a completely clean system. If you still do not get past the boot screen, then try to reboot with the sdcard removed.
[Vega Android Development] tmmv1:
Hi are the latest links for vegabean in post 2?
[Vega Android Development] yani2000:
Yes, the mediafire download links are in second post.

I recommend flashing the beta 6 nvflash version!
[Vega Android Development] Sneil:
Dear Scanno,

That did the trick. Somehow I think something went wrong with the format of the SD the first time.

Now it works. The only thing which is a little of a problem for me is the speed of it all. The first time clicking something it takes a few seconds before anything happens. But when it runs, it runs perfectly!

Anyway thanks a lot for your rom, it is the best one up till now!

Cheers
[Vega Android Development] rpmccormick:
Ever since upgrading from Beta3 to Beta6, my tablet is much slower and more buggy. It locks up / reboots more often (did it some with Beta3... never did it with VegaCream RC2 which I am considering backing up to). It is always dead so I think it is not deep-sleeping. The cool thing is Google Now voice-recognition works great, so I don't want to go back if other people have been able to get this running fast and stable.

I used the CWM version, I wiped/formatted EVERYTHING including the EXT partition (not the FAT32 though). I restored a couple apps from Ti Backup, but not many and they should all be safe. I have not used Link2SD or done any moving of apps whatsoever. Do I need to reflash with a truly empty SDCard other than the rom .zip?
[Vega Android Development] canerpense:
Ram problem

I just flashed the Beta 6 (CWM one) to my Exper Easypad (essentially the Advent Vega) to find that it is running with only 350MB of ram instead of 1GB. I had tried previous betas though none of them gave me such a problem.

I'm downloading to see if the Nvflash version solves the problem.

Solved: Just checked that it has 512MB ram installed in it...
[Vega Android Development] Shaizer:
Can I still install Beta 6 if I don't have a partitioned SD Card? I'd rather not have int2ext as I'm giving this to a friend who doesn't know much about apps2sd/SD-ext etc.
[Vega Android Development] tasadar:
my wi-fi is not turnong on . It turns on only when I restart the tablet with turned on button after that if I turn Wi-Fi off I can not turn it back on unless I Reboot . Why is this happening and is there a fix ? that happens on vegacream RC2 also
[Vega Android Development] yani2000:
Umm... if you're giving this away to a friend wouldn't your friend need a SD card anyway?

If you're not giving away your current SD card then just put in what your friend will have or any old SD card that you have lying around.

AFAIK there are no advanced settings to be made when installing an app when using int2ext.

So you can go ahead and partition your card so your friend can have a care free VegaBean use. ;)

As i earlier asked , my WIFI is ok after turning on or rebooting the tablet, then if it goes to sleep after 10/15/20 minutes when I wake the tablet , The WIFI does not TURN ON and have to restart to get back ON !

Is there something wrong with the deep sleep or sleep that brakes the VEGA's WIFI or it is kernel related ? IS there a solution and does anybody had this problem ?
[Vega Android Development] scanno:
@All,

I have here beta7 for people to try.

What has changed:

- Large part of the ramdisk has changed

- Init.d support added

- Possible fix for the co-existance of BT and Wifi problem. ABTFilt never got loaded at boot time. So hopefully BT and Wifi will work together better then before.

- Shuttle Power HAL adjustment. The interactive governor settings where not set correctly.

- Changed the way of CWM install

There are two CWM install zips. The first is the beta7 update zip. This flashes the android system. The second is the data install zip. This installs the Apps that i have added. If you want to update from beta6 then please only wipe cache and dalvik-cache and ONLY flash the update zip. If you want to do a complete new new install, then do a full wipe, install the update zip and right after the data install zip (so without booting in between).

Please let me know how this works out and let me know how BT is working now !!

CWM Update ZIP: VegaBean-Beta7-Update.zip

CWM Data ZIP: VegaBean-Beta7-Data.zip

[Vega Android Development] scanno:
@All,

Beta8 update ZIP : VegaBean-Beta8-Update.zip

Wifi fixed. After first install you should only have to enter the password once and then after reboot it should connect normally.

And added a new kernel build. The previous kernel had still some debug info enabled and that has been removed now.
[Vega Android Development] kenny_hn_mda:
i will test it...and give a detailed feedback as soon as possible
