Which nightly was the one with the most stable 3G/HSPA connectivity and Bluetooth tethering? I'm thinking of trying EOS4 again.
[Xoom Android Development] XxLordxX:
I have a very stable 3G with 160 nightly, I can't tell about BT tethering because I don't use it :p, but WiFi hotspot is working stable as well :)

Incredible job with the 164

Just one question, after flash no google search bar.

Good for me but normal ?
[Xoom Android Development] emaxxim:
You need to reinstall the gapps and if still no search bar you have to take Google search from Play Store.

An unexplored issue with JB eos mz 601 ROMS...

Wondering if the driver for Garmin usb gps units can be enabled in the next ROM update? Otherwise, Garmin units will not be recognized by android applications like 'USB Gps' or navigation programs running in a linux chroot environment - like OpenCPN. http://www.cruisersforum.com/forums/f134/opencpn-install-on-android-tablets-easier-now-94064.html

Appreciate the devotion the eos team has in turning out great ROM updates. I'm running 164 with no apparent problems, except the missing Garmin driver.

[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
Find out what kernel modules you need and I can probably do something.

The Garmin gps module name is garmin_gps and should be included in the linux kernel.

[Xoom Android Development] armido:
garmin_gps

Installed #166 with no apparent problems yet.

However, in order for the garmin module to work properly it has to be loaded after the linux chroot is started. I'm stumped as to how to do this from within a terminal. I've tried several different ways to modprobe the module from within the terminal, including copying it into the linux filesystem. The error I get is 'FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.39.4-Eos4-00078-g85f9b4c/modules.dep: No such file or directory'

The module loads o.k. on booting my Xoom, enabled by a script I created and placed in /system/etc/init.d

Thanks,

armido

No problem here.

armido
[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
It is not possible to modprobe an android module from chroot. At the same time, there's no reason why it would need to be modprobed from chroot. In the Backtrack project, we modprobe everything before chroot. And the wifi drivers function as they should in chroot. Perhaps try installing the Backtrack distro and work from there.

Somebody find me the commit. I'm not doing all the work now :silly:
[Xoom Android Development] lchiu7:
This is my first time flashing a ROM on my Xoom which is a Australian 3G device. It went pretty well. I unlocked the bootloader first, installed a custom recovery and then rooted it.

Then was able to install the latest TWRP 2.5.0.0 touch recovery [2012-12-19].

From that, not knowing which of the nightlies was the most stable, flashed 166. That went pretty well also.

I erased all data, factory reset the table from recover and just flashed the ROM and then the last Google Apps.

But now that 166 is installed I have noticed a couple of problems that I could not solutions to reading this thread.

First of all it ages (two days!) for it to finally connect to my home wifi network! I thought it was a bug and was going to report it but when I looked it was connected. Strange. But the following are not going away.

1. The keyboard is very laggy and I have also tried Hackers Keyboard which is equally laggy. I see reports that the stock keyboard does have problems but they don't appear to be fixed with this replacement.

2. Google Search and Google Now just don't work. Press and hold the Home key and swipe away and the Google Now screen pops up momentarily and then disappears. Similarly when pressing the Google search bar at the top of the screen, Google search appears momentarily and then disappears.

Thanks

[UPDATE]

Found a fix for Google Now in the Wingray thread - disable Google hotword detection.

So only the keyboard which I can live with.

Great update.
[Xoom Android Development] armido:
Sir, your prompt response to my request to enable the garmin_gps module will quite possibly bring thousands of new members to xda-developers. I managed to get my external Garmin USB GPSmap 76Cx to work with OpenCPN running in a chroot linux environment. Consequently, my recommendation to others that they visit xda-developers and install custom ROMS - because missing modules can be enabled in a reasonable amount of time. Infrequent manufacturers OTAs may never do it. At this moment more than 18,000 people have visited my thread http://www.cruisersforum.com/forums/f134/opencpn-install-on-android-tablets-easier-now-94064.html There is no way to know how many of them have actually followed my instructions http://opencpn.org/ocpn/node/193 , but those who have may be coming here soon for custom ROMs.

Thank you!
[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
What was the snag on getting it going? Back in the day I made a "overlay" for xoom with 99 modules. Since xoom is pretty much in maintenance mode, I can add modules all day. So it's a open door for module requests. In fact I may write a app for module stack management. But awesome to hear! This is why, in my heart, I will forever love Xoom!

Hey guys!

Amazing work with updating and development for the Everest. I'm wondering if there's any possibility to have the drop down notification and settings at the bottom of the screen like that in EOS3? I found that the navigation buttons can be moved in the EOS menu, can there be a similar option for the notifications and settings?
[Xoom Android Development] cunnie84:
Have you tried setting your keyboard to PC ??? Go into setting > languages and input > press the lil settings slider on the android keyboard, then choose language type and change it to UK PC , just don't forget to enable it ( I can't remember if that's exactly how I did it but its something like that) and your android keyboard woes shall be gone lol
[Xoom Android Development] armido:
The snag was...

Modules in the android system have to load first. This is facilitated by creating scripts placed in /etc/modules. Turning on the connected GPS creates a socket - /dev/ttyUSB0 through USB?. The socket created consistently for me is /dev/ttyUSB5. Then, last of all gpsd has to be started. 'lsusb' will list usb devices. The gps device will be something like Bus 002 Device 002: ID 091e:0003 Garmin International GPS (various models' . Next, 'ls -l /dev/bus/usb/002/002 (last number given by lsusb) confirms the device exists. Assuming user is logged as root the command to start gpsd is 'gpsd -n -D 6 -N /dev/ttyUSB5 or whatever USB number was indicated in the dmesg output. My problem was I set Linux Deploy to start gpsd when the system was initialized. First rather than last step in the process. Wrong. Thanks again! armido

The space bar in the new keyboard is slightly better but it is still a pain... Maybe it is because is located too at the edge of the screen and there the Xoom have bad sensibility. I think that it is the same problem with the pie of the CM ROM.

I'm on 167 for now, but I find that the "delete all" button in the bar (opened by tapping on the clock) is really hard to touch. Mostly it only switches to the settings drawer and back and I have to fumble a bit to access this button.

Kernel Source Code...

I may be pushing the limits here, but worth a try. Is it possible to install your kernel source code on the Xoom so it can be used to compile modules from within a chroot environment? Not necessarily in the android system either. It would in fact probably be necessary to copy the code to one of the following linux chroot file systems....

checking for Linux build in /lib/modules/2.6.39.4-Eos4-00078-g85f9b4c/build... not found

checking for Linux build in ../linux... not found

checking for Linux build in /usr/src/linux... not found
