Hello,

totally new to this forum so pardon the hit and run. I have been helping someone install CM9 onto his K1 and ran into a roadblock that I can't seem to get around.

I rooted it and installed the previous CM9 that Khanning released and for a few hours all seemed well. The device then locked up and had to hard shut down. After I get about 3 rounds of the startup logo and then freeze.

I can't get back into CM9 at all so have not been able to figure out how to get back into k1recovery.

I have tried re-hooking it up to the computer and it won't see it as an external device at all (has a spot for something being recognized while the locked screen is up on the tablet, but windows just won't see it as a usable device to copy data to or from.

I also tried with the 2 lights on (sorry forget what that mode is called) connecting and a adb shell k1recovery command, but adb just won't see the device at all.

Even tried a battery disconnect (he already knew to try that from a previous lockup that could only be fixed that way - long before when it was still stock - not a recent need).

Any ideas?

Oh I also tried removing the external sdcard and putting a dummy update.zip file on it and in a directory I created called Download - no luck - read somewhere on TPTs that that could force a bootup into CMW - but no similar luck on the K1.

I know CMW installed at least before these lockups on every boot because I was able to terminal to it from within CM9 when it was working for the few hours it seemed to be all ok.

I feel bad - this is my old man and this is his first experience with bricking a device - any help appreciated.

Neil

p.s. Khanning and others - thanks for all you guys do - I use the CM9 (and hopefully CM10) on my HP TouchPad and can't believe how much enjoyment above and beyond the stock you guys add to these devices.

Hi Neil,

I haven't experienced a lockup yet. Was the device doing anything when this happened?

While the device is booting up, bootanimation playing, run 'adb reboot recovery' and see if you can get into CWM. If that doesn't work you may have to enter into APX mode and reflash with the nvflash package.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] ram1986:
Great work but few issues remain.

First hats off to Khanning for all the great work. You have done more than Lenovo did with their half baked ICS update.

Few issues I see (same as AOKP build):

1. Window and transition animations lag a bit (as a workaround I have completely disabled animations)

2. Google Play incompatibility issues with some apps. (Although build.prop of Xoom does fix some apps)

3. Some of CM9 settings don't seem to work (like LED flashlight toggle, Am/PM style in the clock etc.)

The rotation lock doesn't work, but I don't care much for that anyway.

Other than these minor issues, it is great.

Thanks..

Also, on rebooting to recovery, it works fine from terminal emulator or through ROM manager.

In the AOSP build, I used a notification widget using from Elixir2 (an awesome app btw), for rebooting to recovery (I edited the widget command settings to k1recovery). this worked in the AOSP build. But the same widget isn't working in the CM9 build (with the command reboot recovery).

I would love to have a notification widget which can be configured to reboot to recovery.

Anyone knows any other android app which can do that from notification area other than Elixir?

Thanks.

Hello Khanning,

my dad says he was just done installing some apks and he was in to the device settings screen when the device just totally locked up. I got it to shut down with a pressing of the power and home key, but on next boot up it goes through about 3 rounds of the CM boot animation then just locks up completely.

I tried adb reboot recovery also before - problem here is that all adb commands won't see the device attached. I confirmed the nvidia usb driver does show as installed when I attach the device, powered it on holding both volume keys and no luck. Same thing if I do the volume keys and power on before attaching to the computer - adb commands just grumble about no attached device. Also same result when I tried to connect it while the boot animation was playing - it just didn't stay on long enough before locking up to be recognized by the computer at all.

I'll try axp mode and complete re-flash and see what happens - I do see it just did an "Entering NvFlash recovery mode /NV3P Server" so maybe it will reflash back to the rooted base load and let me over flash to the CM9 new build next.

Update...

Thank you very much for the suggestion - I didn't think to re-apply the base through nvflash after being unable to get it to be recognized via any adb commands thinking if it didn't work through adb it wouldn't be seen through nvflash either. It'll be awhile before I know if there is joy or no joy so will post back once I know for sure. If we can't get this patient out of bed he's going to grab a Asus Prime 32gb - $369.99 and tax, but I'd like to avoid that since this tablet really does what he needs (well when it isn't serving 2nd duty as a boat anchor like it is atm).

Update - going back to the first image I used to root the device I'm back and re-applying your AOSP ICS build which just finished as well so looks like for now I'm back in business.

I just downloaded your 8/9 build and am downloading Gapps 4/29 so will do that next.

BTW - my dad isn't a poster type, but he is a "fan" of yours and appreciates everything you've been doing for the K1.

Sorry for the long post - you can tell I'm updating it as I re-flash etc.

Neil

UPDATE...

8/9 installed fine - in process of re-adding the Shtuff (you know what that means) my dad collects - so do we really need 5 versions of solitaire ;)

Thanks again for all you do...

Neil

More news... sad

Ok so on a download just did a cancel since didn't want the file and locked up... on subsequent reboot just get the spinning CM logo - really wish there was a way to boot into recovery at this point, but connecting to PC just yields "error: device not found". Of course I can reflash at this point, but not really sure how much good that will do if I can't when needed get back into recovery to restore backups etc.

I've tried all manor of connects (connect to pc while android logo is spinning, with power off to spinning logo, with power off to axp mode, with power on and already in axp mode - nothing makes adb see the device.

Any thoughts?

Battery usage

Another thing I noticed is that battery usage is not showing up.

This happens in both the AOSP and the CM9 versions.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] mjb32803:
Thorough testing

So all day today I have been exercising this CM9 build. As stated above, I flashed this from AOSP R1 using CWM. Made sure to do a wipe/factory reset, then flashed CM9, then flashed GAPPS. Nothing negative to report. I performed the following things without issue. I have a WiFi only K1. Everything is set to default except I am using Nova Launder and have 2D HW acceleration enabled. My Quadrand score was 2800 (average of 3 runs).

What I have done so far today...

Restored all my apps using Titanium Backup from SDCARD2 (32GB Class10)

Ran the following apps without issue: AdBlock, Acrobat Reader, BBC News, CNN News, Documents to Go, Angry Birds, Facebook, Twitter, MX Player v1.6e with DTS support, Google+, Google Maps, NavDroyd, SetCPU, Avast Security, Quadrant Benchmark, YouTube HD, XDA Developers HD, Rootzwiki, Temple Run, Root Explorer, Titanium Backup, Dolphin Browser, Superuser Elite, Bootlog Uptime, Amazon Kindle, Business Calendar, Amazon App Store, Paper Camera, Nova Launcher, Google Reader, K9 Mail, Netflix, Google Voice, Google Talk, GrooveIP, Weather Bug Elite, Pandora, Slacker Radio. Swiftkey3 Tablet.

Backuped of all user apps with Titanium Backup to SDCARD2

Connected tablet to Win7 x64 PC and can see both Internal Storage and SDCARD (aka SDCARD2), can copy files back and forth

Sideloaded Google Chrome as it does NOT show up in PlayStore, but it works fine (only compatability issue I had)

Front and Rear cameras take single shots

Rear camera takes video and plays back using Video Player

Rear camera takes panorama pictures

GPS seems to work fine with Google Maps (tethered to SGS3) and NavDroyd (stand alone GPS app)

Entered CWM by using Android Terminal Emulator, from prompt, #SU then #Reboot Recovery.

Performed a complete backup with CWM

End of todays testing. No freezes, No resets, No reboots

Battery usage is working fine for me... assuming you mean going into SETTINGS, BATTERY

I get the total time on battery and the graph showing a sloping graph

Battery percent is reflected accurately in status bar too

---------- Post added at 09:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:13 PM ----------

The problem sounds like you flashed THIS CM9 from KHannings old ALPHA CM9. What you probably need to do is flash KHannings AOSP R1 rom using APX mode and a PC. Once you get that flashed, use CWM to flash the NEW CM9.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] ram1986:
Under Settings->Device->Battery, I get the battery percentage and the usage graph like you said.

But, I meant the individual app usage which is absent.

It says "Battery usage data not available".

---------- Post added at 02:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:05 AM ----------

Another thing I noted elsewhere is that the system does not seem to remember App defaults. Like, if I choose to open web using the default browser and check 'use by default for this action', it continues to prompt me every time asking me to choose the default program.

3g issue for K1-CM9

CM9 is great. Thanks Khanning.

But 3g is not working so may unwillingly return to official rom.

***Just installed K1_ICS_AOSP_Rooted_R2 for trying, it seems to have more issues than R1.

***Krook's K1_JB cannot be download in full so cannot try its 3g.

***Just returned to K1_ICS_120607_Rooted, though 3g is flawless but miss the CM9's smoothness and many apps cannot be accessed thru Play.

Will kind soul help to resolve this 3g issue preferably in Khanning's very smooth CM9.

Attached is logcat and dmsg log file.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] nfigot:
Hello,

I can't remember the original path I took now tbh - first start was stock K1 to K1 - PermanentRoot.zip via AXP and PC... which builds from there not sure since I have collected 3 or 4 versions since then.

Ultimately what I did was re-flash via the same K1 - PermanentRoot.zip to get a good base point and then also from AXP and PC went to K1_ICS_AOSP_Rooted_R1.zip - spent the next day or so stable, but one issue remains that I'd like to fix if anybody has any thoughts.

I can go to terminal and k1recovery to get to recovery and be able to flash new roms, perform a backup etc, but I still can't get ADB from the PC to work. I connect and any ADB commands refuse to see the tablet, but I can mount it fine as an external device and see both the internal and external files on the tablet.

Is there a good way to re-install the Android SDK - maybe I picked a wrong option on install.. if nobody knows I'll just do a standard uninstall of it and reinstall it and see if that fixes it. I believe it asked some specific questions about which ADB driver to install and maybe I chose the wrong one?

We're doing a backup now and I'm going to flash to R2 from (Rom Manager) CWM recovery soon so that will test being able to update via CWM from this point forward, but in the event of a lockup and failure to be able to install again I'd like to have ADB access from the PC figured out.

Not to sound stupid, but debug mode is turned on on your tablet, right?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] nfigot:
No worries - yeah to avoid the question I should have mentioned that it is indeed turned on - but was a good thought. I tried it both ways even just to make sure it wasn't something odd/simple like that.

[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] traihan:
Fully discharge (keep screen on & no sleep). Let cool down for about 2 hrs. Recharge overnight (do no use while charging). See that helps.

If you are rooted, I do not know if deleting the battery data will help.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] ssl123:
You do not want to fully discharge a lithium-based battery if you can avoid it, and, if you over-discharge one, you might not be able to get it to take a charge again, rendering the battery and thus your tablet dead and useless. Lithium batteries lose capacity over time and also depending on environment and usage habits [e.g., larger discharges degrade capacity faster than shorter discharges, and a full discharge is of course the largest discharge of all]. Those caveats being said, if you still feel it's a software issue and not the battery itself and want to try and correct it despite risks, CWM usually has an option to clear and reset the battery stats. It requires you to fully charge the battery, run the battery stat reset, discharge the battery to zero, and then charge it full again. This is all cosmetic, I believe. It's only changing what the software expects your max and min points ought to be, not improving the battery itself.

I have encountered a repeatable bug in Google maps. It occurred in BOTH AOSP V2 and CM9. I open maps, type in a city. In my case Huntersville NC. Maps displays correctly. I start to zoom in/out and slide map around... After about 30-40 seconds of doing these actions tablet reboots. I have re flashed, factory reset, wipe data, cache, system, dalvik and bug returns. I am running nova launcher prime and have 2D hw acceleration on. Reboot also happens with 2D hw OFF. Anyone else experience this?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] mjb32803:
When using Google Talk, the option for video is NOT available. I can voice chat. I tried clearing data for Talk and even flashed gapps from CWM. No joy. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] ram1986:
I have been using this ROM for over two weeks and I am beginning to see a very weird issue.

Sometimes, when the screen times out and the tablet locked, I just can't unlock it.

Nothing happens when I press the power button. The display doesn't turn on and show the unlock menu.

I am forced to press/hold the power button and reboot the tablet.

This doesn't happen every time so it's pretty hard to explain why this happens occassionaly.

I am noticing the same problem with CM9 on my Galaxy S2 as well. So may be it a CM issue.

Update: This isn't a problem with the lock screen. The issue is the tablet just freezes from time to time. Everything freezes and I had to reboot the tablet.

I am seeing this problem only within the last day or so. Everything was fine until then. This has already happened five/six times in the last few hours.

I did a Fix permission but that did not help.

I have no idea why this has happened suddenly and if it is hardware related.

Has anyone else experienced a total freeze of the tablet requiring a forced reboot?

I have the same problem few days ago, corrected by checking the option of "keep wifi alive during sleep" in advanced wifi settings, and same problem mentioned in khanning 's. 4.0.3 aosp port thread, looks like ics issue... In general.

Hi guys.... I am leaving this forum. I started learning things in htcmania.com (spanish forum) and then I started entering here.

This is a fantastic forum. I have learnt A LOT about android, and I started being a big noob... but now I have to left this forum

my i9003 has broken. I lost touchscreen in a half of the screen. It is not in warranty so I can't repair it, and it costs 90€. For that price I prefer to buy another phone adding some money from my pocket.

I will continue developing REMICS rom until I buy my Xperia S, since the phone boots and I can verify it.

Thank u for everything.

After all the hard work is done, and phone will have a working cm9, you wont be able to use it. Just get the damn screen rather than spending on a new phone.
