i have a problem with turning on wifi. what happens is that it turns off randomly and gets stucked in a 'turning wifi on...' state and then even by reboot i cannot get it back. at some point usually it turns on again by luck, but it can take an hour or whatever. i had it on ics and was hoping that with this rom it will go away. is it a hardware problem or should i try 0.9.1 instead of 0.9.2? could it be that some app i started to use recently causes the problem (i don't have any idea what it could be)?

edit: the problem may be connected to me running 'auto airplane mode', i will try without it. do you know any other way to turn wifi off in sleep mode now that 'wifi always on' has to be set otherwise we have reboots? thanks

You guys have made my tablet sooooo much better. It's a usable sketchpad now!

I had abandoned it last year as far too cumbersome. Now it's like a brand new device; freed from the terrible Lenovo firmware that was shackling it.

Let me know if there's anywhere/anything I can contribute.

Also, mapping the browser button to disable the sketchpad for bad palm cancel was brilliant.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] ahfpired:
I second that!

[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] obscure.detour:
0.9.2 seems to be working well. Only way to stop random reboots is to enable WiFi to always-on. If you don't disable WiFi when the tablet is idle, this obviously drains the battery pretty quickly. Reboots and random shutdowns still happen occasionally, although very rarely. I'll try to get some logs.

Other than that, nothing to report really. To those with launcher issues, use Nova or Apex, I use Nova and have had zero issues.

Also, Koshu, you might be interested a DPI adjustment tool I recently read about on XDA that can be found at this thread, [TOOL] Google Play DPI Fix (Custom DPI, Modded GSF, GB, ICS, JB) - v1.3 (6/3/13). It patches build.prop, Play Store, and GSF. I am going to make a nandroid and probably try it this weekend and see if I can get a DPI of 150 to work.

Off topic;

Quill's method of allowing the button to be of use has been broken since the initial Jelly Bean release by Koshu. Unfortunately, Volker (the author of the app) no longer develops with the TPT in mind (I think he got a Galaxy Note 10.1), so I believe the chance of it working again is pretty small. And honestly, I don't think he is really working on it anyway. It still doesn't have cut/copy/paste. :silly: It's still a great app and I paid for it, so don't get me wrong.

Lecture Notes developer, acadoid, is awesome and his app is amazing. He's even active in this very forum, namely in the Apps & Themes subsection. I'd recommend giving his app a try. It's truly magnificent. Import/export to PDF, multiple layers, customized pens, cut/copy/paste, and tons of customization options.

The pen button also works with an app called Write. It's free, fairly useful and recently just got updated for pressure sensitivity.

Cheers and thanks again Koshu,

touch dies

anyone having problem with the touch screen dying after 10 15 mins of hard use like in a pinball game. it happens for me in several games that use the touch screen hard. I have to power down with the power button and then restart it then comes up in recovery mode and I have to select reboot. am on latest build. also very log boot up time since installing this rom.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] sandiegodude:
I'm having the same issue with my touchscreen going out after about 20 min of use, but the pen works?!! So weird. Anyone else have this issue?

I just saw this post. "Koshu, in ICS there was an option were you can select Pen only and shut off the touchscreen...however i didnt see that option anywhere on version 0.9.1 rom, any ideas of how to implement that? Or did i just miss the location of it.

Just use the hardware buttn that looks like a ball" -Koshu

I have similar problem. Sometimes (irregulary) touchscreen for fingers and also for PEN doesn't work so I have to reset tablet with button next to SDcard slot. It happens mostly when using Play Store app (and app itself crashes more offten than before).

And I have another one strange thing - when I use long press of +, - or back button for control music player, volume goes to roughly middle value. Just not sure if it's issue of system or music player (PowerAmp).

Any Ideas ?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] da_reeseboy:
You will have to find someone that has a stock we tpt and get a backup off it to get yours back to stock. Lenovo doesn't have the stock ROM for download, only patches that have to be applied in order.

For now you will have to flash back to cm10 or maybe snag a nandroid for another region tpt.

R: [ROM][CM10] Thinkpad Tablet (v0.9)

It happens to me as well.

Sometimes the screen looses touch function also while browsing with Firefox if I try to touch the screen during a browser busy time.

My solution right now is to press the power button to switch off the screen and wait a couple of seconds, then switch on the tablet and off the touchscreen with the Internet button. At that point use the pen to pass the slide screen or reactivate the touchscreen and it works again (in my case).

It is only a placebo but hope it helps.

I agree, is there anything I (or we) can do in order to keep this progress going? I'd like to assume (although not that easy) that if we have CM10 on this, moving up to CM10.1 shouldn't be that big of a challenge or hurdle over going from nothing to CM10.

I'd be interested in exploring or helping this progress further.

Can't thank the developer enough for making my tablet be such an amazing tablet. To bad not more people weren't on board with this one.

How can we overclock version 0.9.1?

I'm not a 100% sure, but I think it says somewhere in this thread that we can't overclock or anything like that yet. Don't quote me but that's what I remember seeing at least.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Deegan87:
Sad day. I just know that v.8 can be overclocked, so I thought there'd be a way to do it in more recent builds.

On another note, I can't get my Bluetooth keyboard to work with this. Anyone else have any luck?

[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] ledorky:
I'm having IMO a similar issue too. I'm just taking notes with the MyNotes app and after a few pages of writing, the pen stops working (I'm in pen-only mode). Even after a touchscreen toggle and I physically turn the screen off/on, it doesn't come back. My only recourse is to power down the tablet (I can't even press the restart screen option) and turn it back on again.

Very odd. I went straight to CM10 from honeycomb so I have no idea if it worked previously or not. Any help appreciated.

[UPDATE]

The download finally kicked it; might have been some issues with the firewall at my University (the download was coming from an UbuntuOne drive). Installed 0.9.2, works AMAZING, no battery drain issues. Took a bit of tinkering to get 3G to work. Any ideas how to get the "Mobile Broadband" toggle to show up in the notifications bar? I have an Ericsson card.

Low audio

I am using v0.9.1 (new wifi driver bcmdhd) for quite some time now and my only complaint is the extremely low audio output by my tablet thinkpad. I tried various application to boost the speaker but in vain. These applications are not compatible with jelly bean, supports only ICS. Any other user facing the same problem? Audio quality is excellent on ear piece but barely audible on the tablet`s speaker. Anyone with a solution to this problem?:confused:
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Shawnki91:
The unfortunate reality of the TPT is that the audio output is terrible; point blank. Remember, this was positioned as a business tablet and there are numerous shortcomings in terms of multimedia features. Most notable is the audio.

Is there any way to apply this fix to our kernel?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] RocketFord:
Hello

It is a great ROM. I am using it for last two weeks. Except of great features I noticed couple problems:

- is there a way to bring back broadband and GPS toggles in menu?

- I have an impression that light light sensor is not working fine. It reacts very slowly and not to the extent that is needed. For example there is no difference between auto brightness and manual setting. Is that only my issue or more common?

Regards,

Woj
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Magnusmarshall:
The light sensor is always hit and miss on tablets.

One thing to remember is that the roms can behave odd if you restore a backup that includes settings.

A good example is the older wireless driver behaves like the new one if you restore settings with say titanium backup.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] RocketFord:
Thanks! Yes I noticed - light sensor sometimes works and sometimes not. As to the wifi mine TPT under this ROM with a new driver just got crazy and unusable. However with the old WiFi driver it works jut great.

brick? can't apply update nor anything in cwm; cannot mount ...

so my problem is that i had this custom rom, was happy with it, but at some point it froze and then never restarted (it is stuck on lenovo sign). i went into cwm, yet there whatever i try to do i got lines that:

can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

error mounting /external_sd

errror mounting /data

etc

basically it cannot mount anything.

when i try to wipe data/factory reset i get:

formatting /data...

errror mounting /data!

skipping format...

formatting /cache...

e:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p4

...

a few times when i rebooted into cwm, at least i could apply zip from external sd, which i tried in various ways, last time i applied the format_data.zip and then restored a nandroid backup from external_sd. but after that after reboot after lenovo sign also the cyanogenmod circle started to animate, but went no longer. i tihnk that maybe applying format_data and then the cm10 zip file would be a betteer choice but now external_sd is never mounted.

perhaps the partitions are messed up, so i would need to repartition or something like that. but how and what?

adb is working though, but i don't see how i can apply an update via that, as pushing to /sdcard an update.zip seems to do something (some kb's appear), but in cwm if i try to apply /sdcard/update.zip i get:

e:can't mount /cache/recovery/last_install

e:failed to open last_install: Block device required

Finding update package

e:can't mount /sdcard/update.zip

Installation aborted

any ideas? any trick how can i make the tablet see the external sd (or internal) in cwm? is there some proper order when i should insert the card?

thanks, hopefully the tablet is not bricked forever.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] pwstein:
I've had my SD card go from visible and functioning in CWM one day, to never mounting the next day.

My solution is to format the SD card again on a PC. Seems like the TPT can screw with the card's readability on the TPT. A fresh format always gets my card mounted again.

Don't forget to backup your SD card contents before formatting.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] mnb123123:
Thanks, after reformatting, i could see the external sd card in CWM. sadly, this did not solve my problems.

what i tried and failed (freeze on lenovo static or cyanogenmod animated screen) so far:

1. apply format_data.zip

2. apply the cm10 zip

1. apply format_data.zip

2. restore nandroid backup of freshly installed cm10

1. apply format_data.zip

2. restore nandroid backup of latest stock ics with my apps (a state before i switched to cm10)

in some cases i tried to do 1.5 wipe data/cache as well between 1 and 2

what else should i do? should i apply format_data.zip and then a stock ics zip?

any ideas?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] mnb123123:
Now i managed sometimes (quite rarely) that ext sd is visible in cwm, then i can flash the format_data.zip, after which i can mount /data,/cache,/system in cwm (but not /sdcard). latest i tried to restore a 75us_nobloat_root nandroid backup i found on the forums, after which it is constantly rebooting from lenovo screen. now again i can't mount anything, so until i see again ext sd and apply format_data.zip, i'm again stucked.

the restoring of the backup seemingly went fine, except some .android_secure.img missing. could that be the problem (see log)? also i think whatever backup (ics, cm10) i restored, the log was the same, i.e. no .android_secure.img found, but the rest looked ok. but whatever i restored, it was always stuck on boot.

any ideas?

nandroid backup restore log:

Checking MD5 sums...

Erasing boot before restore...

Restoring boot image...

Restoring system...

Restoring data...

.android_secure.img not found. Skipping restore of /sdcard/.android_secure.

Restoring cache...

Restore complete!
