Any suggestions? It literally takes like 5 minutes to download a lightweight app like Ookla Speedtest.net

I am not familiar with fios , I am still using cable. Rebooting the router and modem has always improved my d/l speeds
[G Tablet Android Development] TheFlyingPig:
Sometimes wifi function dies and disappears altogether. It happens on my other ICS/JB devices as well, so I don't think it's specific to this ROM/device. When it's available and is connected, the speed is always dependent on my connection quality. When my connection is bad, I can definitely feel it. It can always be resolved by moving closer to one of the APs. My house is fairly big. The hot spot is covered by 5 APs, so there are definitely semi-dead zones. I'm just guessing your problem is elsewhere.

WIndows 8 driver?

Can anyone help point me to the windows 8 driver for the device, I get the symlink error on install, can't install Team DRH cause the batch file doesn't see the device, thanks!
[G Tablet Android Development] EirikrHinnRauthi:
I know this reply is late in coming... if you go to this site here http://the3dman.com/?page_id=371 you have DRH's current repository of files. If you need the drivers, they are in the different NVFlash files within that section.

You will need to extract the contents of the .zip first.

In Device Manager in Windows, you will have to go and right-click the device, update the driver software, and point it to the extracted NVFlash directory.

If you are on Windows 8 / 8.1 you will need to first have disabled device driver signature enforcement.

G tablet noob looking for some help here

Someone gifted me a tablet that has and old version of ClockworkMod Recovery and Cyanogenmod 7 already installed. How can i go about updating this tablet to use this rom?

I tried running NVFlash using the tools mentioned and it does not detect the tablet. I have a stark feeling this version of CWM does not support NVFLash at all. I found a link to a number of what seem to be CWM builds but i have no idea which one to download.

http://www.the3dman.com/teamdrh/DRH-Downloads/NvFlash/

Alternatively, can i just flash this rom and it would work? I want to ask before i do this as i don't want to brick this unit.

Better File Host?

I'm trying to breathe some new life into this old tablet, but I'm getting a whopping 20K/s download. The download has also randomly failed twice so far, usually about 2 hours into the download.

Are there any other current mirrors for this?

EDIT: It was just being slow for a day. I was able to download at 650K/s today.

If you already have a working version of CWM, it should be fine.

If you choose to flash something new with NVflash, you need "TeamDRH_350M_Prep.zip" from that page you mentioned. In there are drivers and a readme for windows or linux that should explain how to get off the ground running.
[G Tablet Android Development] neonkevo:
thanks for the response, i did manage to flash the tablet but unfortunately the build runs ultra slow for me. Tried the CM10 build in this forum and it too has major lag for me. :crying:
[G Tablet Android Development] me_is_rushin:
I get best performance on TeamDRH 4.2 Build 3. Set min CPU to 800mhz and max to 1200mhz. Still lags a bit (my guess is due to ram) but it is usable. Worth noting that when you first set it up it is EXTREMELY laggy as it is updating Play Store and Play Services in background. You can verify this by turning off wifi and it works much faster.
[G Tablet Android Development] redeyedjedi:
Yeah there is a HW accel issue I noticed. Neither bsplayer or mxplayer would play an MP4 with HW, only software decoding. CM and PA guys have not yet gone up to 4.2 because of similar issues but this ROM is 4.1.2 so i don't know why HW accel wouldn't work. If I get time I'll have to test some more. This is a very fluid build regardless and I'm sure the issue will get figured out.
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Yeah. I'm looking into it. Thanks

So, paranoid android has switched over to AOSP for their version 3, which will be android 4.2.2 or 4.2.1r1. I noticed you built at 4.1.2. Does your update happen to be 4.2, or mainly a HW accel fix for 4.1.2? Just curious because once PA releases their tested source I will be trying to build it, and if there are already issues you might be aware of, Id like to get started now. I would also like to build odexed for the extra 50mb of free RAM it seems to have.
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
I compiled the AOSP 4.2 source successfully but I havent been able to get it to boot yet. The update will be 4.1.2.

I think I might kang one of your builds again :p. Got 2.2 up and running (OC version). I don't know if it matters or not but using CWM 5504 with 350m system mod. The only issue I am seeing so far is with LatinIME.apk. I would be using the XDA app to reply, but everytime keyboard opens it will let me type one keystroke and then drop back down. Maybe permissions or something not done right in the smail files. Going to load up a different board from Play Store so I can use the Keyboard. Something to play with while I wait on my Desktop to be rebuilt. :laugh:

Also as a side note 86 SuperUser.apk and place SuperSu.apk in its place. The SU binary is already there its just the app.

Alright. Loaded up my favorite keyboard. Hacker keyboard. Now I can type on this thing again.:D

[G Tablet Android Development] omkar62:

Thanks,

[G Tablet Android Development] nobe1976:
Try downloading it with your PC with a stable internet connection. Dev. Host never has a issue with Chrome on my PC. First download I did was perfect. Also look to see what recovery you are using. Like I posted above I am using CWM 5504 modded 350m system. No issues installed first time after wiping data factory reset, Format System, and also deleting everything off of internal storage except my backup apps and the rom. Also when mounting your internal storage check on your PC to view hidden files. That can cause issues if there are anything related to the rom and confuse recovery. :eek:

[G Tablet Android Development] redeyedjedi:
worked perfectly for me using teamdrh350prep from dirty bean, which is cwm 6. whatever..... try that.

Dude, where is all the free ram coming from??? is it because of the "user" build or the ODEX? I just have to know, this is awesome.
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Try this. Boot into the recovery. Mount the tab to the computer and when the folder comes up setbthe folder to show the hidden files. You should see a file called ".androidsecure" (or something like that). Delete that file and then reboot the tab back into recovery. The wipe data and format the system (under mounts and storage) and then flash the ROM.
[G Tablet Android Development] Yamagushi:
I'll try these in a bit and let you know.
[G Tablet Android Development] nobe1976:

Updated to CWMR Touch 6 and deleted that folder. Working now. Thanks for the help!

You should consider 120/160 DPI versions like your past builds. Fast so far, hasn't even baked yet and its zoomin along.

Alright bro. Found another issue, but it might just be a quick fix. The external storage is having mounting issues like in G Harmony ICS. I believe I fixed it by transferring the vold HTML in system/bin from DRH ROM over and then installed. Like I said a quick fix. The issue I am seeing is that if you have something on the external storage you cannot unzip it.

You have to add the user tag in the vendorsetup.sh file.

So my GTablet froze at the lockscreen then shut off and wont turn back on, when you press the internal reset button is it just a hardware reset, or does it reset the entire tablet back to locked stock? I've never had to press it before.
[G Tablet Android Development] redeyedjedi:
it just restarts your machine, not a firmware reset. while you're in there, check your wire connections to make sure they are all secure, it may be why you have touchscreens issues.

Were you able to build with the user tag?

Absolutely love the ROM

I wanted to thank you for the hobby you have. I re-bought a GTab about a year after mine became Angry Fishes instead of Angry Birds. I figured I had replacement parts and for a buck and a half for a refurb couldn't turn down. When I got it I realized that the devs had moved on- except the ones that matter. I think I got about a doubling of functionality using this ROM, overclocking and using the V6Supercharger. I hit a 7900-ish on antutu which isn't bad for a 2-3 year old design. There is one little sticking point. It is minor and it is in the , "what's in a name" category. The external SD card is named microsd- which it is. However, storage in most of the tree software doesn't think it is storage. I have 32 gigs of ext storage and I think Rom Toolbox pro is the only one that sees it as storage. Is there a way, of course I know there is, to rename the microsd folder to -maybe sdcardext- and adjust the properties. I'm about a 4 out of 10 in the code writing department. I lean on what little DOS I had, which wasn't much. Thanks again and even if there's nothing we can do, the ROM is a screamer and stable at those levels too.There is one other storage issue for me. When I have downloaded some of my apps it will say I'm out of room. I deleted three , one of which was xda. When I tried to reload xda I got the low storage can't install warning. I had this problem before so I reinstalled Harmony after reformatting everything except boot. I even reformatted ext card so I wouldn't bring anything to the party. I just changed the installed location to automatic and its working. The microsd looks like the code was written in 69 and is using it as media storage.
[G Tablet Android Development] Yamagushi:
So I know how to change the DPI. But when changing it the number of grids stays the same, it just shrinks everything, so there is a lot of wasted space. How would you edit this?
[G Tablet Android Development] redeyedjedi:
no, I guess not. I had already tried what you said, just deleting "debug" in vendorsetup.sh. but the build starts, displays the normal "box" with the build info in it right before the REAL compiling/building starts, but the build never really starts, no errors either. It just acts like it will but doesn't.
[G Tablet Android Development] nobe1976:
Download and change the launcher to Holo HD available through the Play Store. Stock launcher will always do that.
[G Tablet Android Development] Yamagushi:
Eh, I don't want the extra bulk of a launcher, Gtablets are slow enough as it is.
[G Tablet Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
So you are wanting the smaller interface but with the same size icons?

Sent from my Galaxy Note 2
[G Tablet Android Development] redeyedjedi:
its not extra, its a replacement. it uses less RAM, performs better, and you can choose how many rows of icons. nova launcher I like even better, still uses less ram.

I have tried many different tablets, and ours hold their own. At times we have outscored even a transf prime.

slowdowns happen because gapps suck. MULTIPLE resources are consumed by syncing, check in for updates, push notifications, ADS, ads, ads, and more ADS.

all tablets suffer from this internet and RAM stealing DISEASE, except for maybe a note 10.1 or tf infinity.

[G Tablet Android Development] Yamagushi:
I'd really like to have my gtablet running well. Seems like I might get a week tops regardless of the ROM before everything slows down to the point I stop using the tablet. What are some recommendations for the best setup to get everything going smoothly as possible. Should I be doing something like an sclean at weekly intervals or? I also like firefox but it too tends to slow down to unusable after a week as well. The screen seems to constantly have issues around the edges(extremely unresponsive), maybe I should take it apart and check the connections at nobe pointed out. At one point the battery stopped reading properly, always says 100%, happened as soon as I installed a ROM back around the new ICS ones and never went away. Judging from other people it seems like my GTablet runs much worse than everyone elses. What am I doing wrong? Oh and hows overclocking? Worth it or?
[G Tablet Android Development] nobe1976:
Well the best setup I can recommend is after setting up you device, getting all your apps and what not, reboot so that everything can get zipalighned for better performance. Also some devices need a little bit of time after powering up in order for everything to settle in. I give my tablet around 2 to 3 minutes each morning to settle after I boot it up. Also turn the damn thing off when not in use. It takes like what less the 20 secs to boot if not less. The more it stays on the more the processor gets stressed and if you must leave it on. A app such as CPU Sleeper is very handy on keeping the processor where it needs to be while timed out. Right now Firefox and Chrome are very memory consuming. They both store a lot of cache and cookies in order to work at it's full potential. After using them for a while they both would reach there maximum potential. I have been running Smooth Bean for the whole week and Chrome is working wonders right now. Once that information sinks in they should both work with little to no lag, unless visiting huge websites that don't offer mobile sites . That is one reason I use the mobile app for XDA. OC your device will help speed things along, but be careful on what settings you use. There is always a chance for SOD and you will have to resort to the internal reset button or wait it out.

All the newer GB and Froyo ROMs should have no performance problems. Most of the ICS+ ROMs have bad performance for some reason; and no one's investigated the causes thoroughly. Having said that, these hacks gave me a close to normal performance from the ICS+ ROMs.

If the screen is only unresponsive at the edges, then this should work--there is no need to take the tablet apart.

The battery problem, like the unresponsive touch screen problem, is not a ROM issue. Its a battery HW problem; and without the battery specs sheets can't, I think, be corrected. However, you can use this script to estimate the battery RSOC.
[G Tablet Android Development] borgib:
The reason the performance isn't perfect is because the Devs are building their own kernel blind. There has never been anything official published past Gingerbread. It my never be perfect, but I'd have to say that it is pretty damned good the way it is now.

Awesome thanks for the replies guys, I'll look into this stuff and let you know how it goes.
[G Tablet Android Development] rajeevvp:
Previously, I've heard on this board and on SLD these reasons: bad blocks somewhere; insufficient memory (this one I would agree with) and/or HW specs; unspecified botched installs; dalvik-cache issues; data corruption; SD-cards; insufficient time allowed for a "bake-in"--whatever that is; and so on. Now you have come up with a new reason: building a kernel "blind"--whatever that means.

No, the real reason for the underwhelming performance is that no one's systematically investigated the cause.

Official what? Kernel, ROM, something else?
[G Tablet Android Development] redeyedjedi:
Thats because we are all waiting for you to tells us how to fix it. :fingers-crossed:

No, but seriously, other than looking at dmesg/kmesg or whatever they are called, I just dont know where else to start. I am currently trying to build using a "user" tag because i want to remove all the debug stuff and make my rom more "daily use." It is my understanding that this stops dalvik-cache from cloggin up, but you cannot just change it in build.prop you have to build the rom with the system apks and the framework both odexed. this is how this G-harmony rom is done, and there is a ton of free ram.

My first build though, used the same amount of ram, and even more space in the system partition, it is definitely odexed, so something went wrong.

I have also ran a couple of games on my tab, and then on my brothers tf101, and later on my buddies acer a200, and when I checked the logs, they all three showed the same kinds of warnings and such. i really saw nothing on our tabs that stood out from the other two.

THANK YOU... THANK YOU.. THANK YOU.. I really really love this ROM..

Super fast and responsive. the only things that I can see that needs some work still is the HDMI via Dock still does not work.. ( I know that Smooth Bean had it working.. i came from that ROM) but im not in any hurry for this cause i would much rather have a smooth fast and responsive ROM.

the only other thing i can see is that occasionally the screen flickers.. but not consistently.... so its not that big of a deal.. but otherwise.. GREAT JOB!!!!!!

Did i say thank you??
[G Tablet Android Development] nobe1976:
If you have a root browser installed, download the audio fix off of the Smooth tread. Unzip it and move the files over to the appropriate folders with the exception of the DSP app. Then reboot into recovery and fix permissions and HDMI audio should work.

I loaded this new ROM yesterday. I did ran into issue when loading the new ROM but after I ran the 350MB prep, I have no problem loading it. This is very fast ROM in my opinion. I like to have more free RAM which will help a lot running application and browse the internet. I did have a couple issues. First, the screen keeps freeze on me. I have to bring up the recent app menu to get the screen working again. For this one, I think I have the fix for it. I use No-Frill CPU Control to adjust the minimum to 416MHz (it was 256MHz). I have no problem with the screen any more. Second issue is that some of the game will not work for me. Those game are Ashfalt 7, NFS Hot Pursuit, and MASS EFFECT™ INFILTRATOR. It looks like they keep running a loop of checking license or files. If you have any suggestion on how to fix them, please let me know. Thank you very much for aother great ROM.
