+1, noticed that ever since I switched to Milaq's new recovery.. Initially thought the home button was going buggers, but that theory didn't hold up inside of Android, so it's something to do with the recovery.
[TouchPad Development] woodytrain:
I suspect the datamedia configuration was preventing CM10.1 (non-DataMedia) to be installed. Too bad the generic Status 7 error message while flashing CM10.1 could not help me identify the solution for the failed install.

However I re-downloaded the recovery for CM10.2 (DataMedia)

recovery-clockwork-no_metadata-6.0.3.6-20130926-tenderloin.zip

and copied the IMG to boot. And then successfully flashed CM10.2.

And I now have a TP with working BT.

On the other hand I now have more appreciation of CM11. I do hope BT comes to CM11 soon (either 3.0 or 3.4 kernel).

I tried the first link, the modified flash player works pretty well on dolphin browser. Thanks very much!

I may try second link later. But right now I'm good with dolphin browser.

Got blue screen yesterday and power+home button did power off instead of reeboot :(

Since my TP is one of those you have to avoid power down at any cost or it will refuse to power back on for days

(I hope it will be only days) I'm screwed now :(

It happened when I wanted to enter settings.

How do you set this?
[TouchPad Development] Pajo_16:
I installed the free Antutu app and set it there... requires root. I upped the Max to 1512 and set to initiate on boot.
[TouchPad Development] Pajo_16:
I'm on the 18th Jan build. Very impressed with the battery life. I have Google location set to 'Best battery'. I left the Touchpad by itself for almost 4 days... Still 70% charged. I'm impressed.
[TouchPad Development] sibeans:
go to settings > scroll to bottom > performance > processor > Maximum CPU frequency

(you can set it higher but i chose 1512 based on my experience overclocking the TP in webOS; i also recommend setting CPU governor from interactive to ondemand)
[TouchPad Development] Pajo_16:
Thank you. I did not know this. Uninstalled Antutu.
[TouchPad Development] woodytrain:
Previously "recommended", or now "recommend"?

I read another recent post (not sure which ROM thread), stating best to stay with interactive.

I wish I had more knowledge, and hoping for more discussion, regarding setting the performance settings.

Wish and hope in the same sentence. Oh my!
[TouchPad Development] sibeans:
no worries, try out the latter; it may / may not work well for your setup; i do trial and error for each settings tweak for a couple of days to find out what works best considering all the different variables and differences of builds

Is it just me, or does the latest build + latest gapps remove the old launcher? Not a fan of launcher3.

Edit: Found out it's the newest gapps that removed the old launcher.. fixed by reverting it back to the 1208 gapps..

Edit 2: MXPlayer HW/HW+ mode is still broken on builds newer than 0114. Diceplayer doesnt work either (though it hasn't worked since the change to the 3.0 kernel). Guess I'll just have to send in a logcat to the MXPlayer guys or something and see if its something they can fix on their end.

Regards to gapps, some interesting stuff happening with PA-GOOGLE APPS

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2397942

See OP (and latest thead posts) for announce and explanation of the "Micro Modular GApps Package". And also offer "full" "mini" and "google stock" packages as well as add-on modules.

It's good to see PA lists which Google apps are included in each PA gapps package. I never know what apps (or customizations thereof) are included in the gapps recommended by the Tenderloin ROM Builders.

Anyone else using any of the PA gapps modular packages or add-ons with this ROM? Or are there incompatibilities or reasons to avoid?
[TouchPad Development] johnbelloh:
I have been using the PA standard gapps dated 01/23. All of the google apps work and sync. I flashed CM-11 01/24 tonight and found gallery is still crashing from the last 2 builds and mx player getting hung up. the current download also created a problem with the Dolfin browser. Other than these all my apps work perfectly. I am now using this ROM as a daily driver.

I am having video issues as well with Netflix. 01/10 works with the modified Netflix 3 app, but all the builds after that won't work.

The weird thing is that with all the builds, the unmodified Netlfix app (from the Play Store) just shows the big red Netflix logo with the spinner just spinning forever. With the newer builds, the modified Netflix app it stops and says it could not connect to Netfllix.

When I flash back to 01/10, the modified Netflix app works again....

ART

Does anyone want to talk about their experience enabling ART on this ROM?

How long did it take to enable?

What version of Gapps do you need?

What doesn't work?

Do we need to change /cache partition?

Better performance?

Better battery life?
[TouchPad Development] mkosem:
I can.

It took 5-10 minutes to boot after enabling it, and I had to reinstall gapps and reboot a couple of times before the constant FCs went away.

Bejeweled didn't work, everything else I use seems to.

Didn't need to change cache.

Performance is better (see antutu bench one page back).

No idea on battery life.

The experience I've had with it on the TP is comparable to my nexus 5 with respect to compatibility. It's (obviously) much much slower buy seems to be as stable and usable.

[TouchPad Development] allstar319:
Same deal with MXPlayer, started after the 0114 build, though, I can play the videos but I'm restricted to software mode. It's something on the CM side, either gonna have to hope it gets fixed on CM (unlikely), or report it to the MXPlayer guys as it wasn't something Milaq committed that broke HW and HW+ modes.

Milaq disabled that a while back once we shifted to the 3.0 kernel. The external sd card is considered "legacy" on this build now, so if you still want to mount it in the current builds, you'll have to look a few pages back on how the guys were manually mounting it. Or, just resize your partitions as suggested in the OP.
[TouchPad Development] bugskumar:
I installed the latest version cm-11-20140124-UNOFFICIAL and then flashed gapps-kk-20140105 later. The install went ok but I didn't see any Google apps or Play Store. I manually downloaded and installed a Play Store apk but that crashes after launch. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks in advance for your help.
[TouchPad Development] laspero:
try reflashing gapps
[TouchPad Development] bugskumar:
Tried already. Also tried other versions. No dice :(
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
So let me get this straight, either Milaq or Cyanogenmod has replaced Trebuchet with something called Launcher and it is currently in version 3.

Do you know when exactly this started? Was it with CM11 or version of CM before that. I wonder if Launcher is just a version of Trebuchet in sheep's clothing? In other words, they just changed the name and made a few changes. I've never been a fan of any of the launchers/UI's that come with CM builds. Go Launcher is my favorite third party launcher.

"external sd" is legacy. we were really into making a smooth transition over to datamedia but it is time to move on.

i decided to _not_ mount it in the new builds. it causes confusion and is not needed anymore.

if you really need it you can still go ahead and mount it manually.

furthermore you can still 'adb sideload' any zips via usb (e.g. for an initial install).
[TouchPad Development] allstar319:
From my understanding, there are either two builds of launcher included on the 1208 gapps (Named Launcher and Launcher 3), or, the 0105 gapps removes the Launcher version thats on the rom and leaves Launcher 3 as the default. I assume Launcher, is the one we've known from the beginning, and Launcher 3 is something new that CM has been working on.
[TouchPad Development] chris5s:

[TouchPad Development] ANDR01DN00B:
How do I manually mount it?

EDIT: Got it, but it isn't showing anything in the /data/media/legacy folder.
[TouchPad Development] laspero:
make sure you have root enabled on ES File Explorer
[TouchPad Development] potatohead:
input the following via Terminal Emulator (or your fav terminal app):

su

mount -t vfat /dev/mapper/store-media /data/media/legacy

if still no dice for you, you may want to install busybox (if not already installed)
[TouchPad Development] zoser42:
I read somewhere that Trebuchet is based on Launcher 2 and that Launcher is based on Launcher 3 so it would indeed appear that Launcher is the replacement for Trebuchet in KitKat.

Also you can try the native syntax for mounting /media in Terminal as follows:

su

mount -t vfat /dev/mapper/store-media /data/media/legacy

It doesn't mount it as external_sd but it should give you access to the media partition with ES File Exporer with root access as stated above.

[TouchPad Development] skywalker6705:
As someone whose family is not tech savvy enough to constantly update manually, folding these kinds of things into the play store automatic update system is really helpful. They don't wanna leave it open because companies like Samsung will port out anything significant, which is more of a concern in the face of Tizen.

I hate what the effect it, but risky understand the why. Maybe cyanogen can reach out to them for an exception or some redacted code.
[TouchPad Development] marcustaz:
Very cool just got an update reminder from the goo.im app. Seems to be triggered from JCSullings testing folder. Even though I am on CM11 1/23 build it is triggering 10.1 1/25 kernel 3 test.

Milaq I don't want to sound non appreciative but will you please consider going back to goo.im again? I only ask because as I said before, it makes it super easy for my family and close friends to update their tabs as its virtually an automated process. As it is now I am doing it for them all only when I get a chance and that is certainly infrequent. Please let me know what you think and why if you could please and thank you.
[TouchPad Development] woodytrain:
I installed the 01-26 nightly and then flashed Milaq's gapps-kk-20140105.

Play store working fine.

Clear your caches. And then reflash gapps.
[TouchPad Development] zoser42:
Doing the above made the Play Store work fine for me ONLY on the first app install but it was back to broken on the second. The Play Store app has to crash first before the permissions dialog comes up and the downloading starts.

I cleared the cache with Clean Sweep Master but that didn't help. Clearing both caches in cwm also didn't fix it either. Neither did reflashing gapps and clearing the caches. The Store remains broken on the first app install after trying all of these things to resolve the issue.

Does your store continue to work fine after the first app install woodytrain or anyone else?

Does anyone have any suggestions? I was thinking of doing a full wipe and restore from a Titanium backup. Will that accomplish anything?

I am going to stick with cm11 because changing the sleep time to 30 minutes worked around my SoD problem while using the Kindle app.

[TouchPad Development] woodytrain:
Probably going OT here, but for those having trouble with g-apps, the PA-apps FAQ has some good info.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44417547

In particular see FAQ points 4, 6 and 9.

It appears Google has moved to a device specific installation model for Google Play Store services in gmscore. This forced PA to revert their PA-gapps packages to include an earlier version of Google Play services. Then after installation of the earlier version, Google auto pushes the "latest and proper version" of Google Play services to devices.

So this leads me to the following questions: 1. Since the TouchPad is not an "official" Android device, how does Google identify which is the proper version of GMS for 'tenderloin" builds/TouchPad devices? 2. And beyond GMS, will Google begin apply the same "device specific" process to individual Google apps?

I suspect the ROM Builders would rather spend their time and energy in ways other than packaging and updating ga-apps for their specific respective ROMs.

It's very cool PA-apps is providing a "change log" for their various pa-apps packages. Not having a change log available for the g-apps packages assembled by tenderloin ROM builders makes it difficult to know what's inside each package. I note in Milaq's most current g-apps package, the file modified date shows the same 2008 date for the individual components, so wasn't able to deduce the changes/diffs in the various g-apps versions, before installation.

From now, I will only be flashing pa-apps micro packages, so I know a little bit better what I'm getting each time I flash a g-apps package.
[TouchPad Development] johnbelloh:
I've been using the pa_gapps-stock-4.4.2-20140123-signed.zip for the last few days and noticed that I must flash the gapps following the flash of each rom update. If I don't I get a loop right at the end of the boot during "finishing boot". All my apps are functional with a couple of bugs with vides on Youtube. If I encounter a hang up the home key will recover but then key clicks go away and can't charge until I reboot and all returns to working condition. All the Google apps work including Google Now. I had been using Milaq's 1208 gapps, but there seemed to be an incompatibility with 4.4.2. I hope my testing is a help. This looks a great ROM.;)
[TouchPad Development] woodytrain:
The stock package is relatively large and I'm not sure if appropriate for the TouchPad..How much free space do you have in /system ?

Myself I don't need or want all the apps in the full package.So before installing the full package, I removed those respective apk's from the zip BEFORE flashing pa-apps.

And for now I want access to the stock/AOSP apps along with tge newer versions. However without a working camera in CM11, I don't need a camera app...yet. I would take an improvement in BT support over an operating camera.

Since you installed the "Stock" package do you see Google Photos, or is it still Gallery?
[TouchPad Development] Moody66:
It isn't a size or space issue if it's been partitioned correctly. The way the newer roms install is the largest reason for this. Full gapps or not. People have the same issue with some phones as well. 4.4 changed a lot of things.
[TouchPad Development] johnbelloh:
I get both Gallery and Google photos. I have plenty of space. Apps are using 810mb and I have 12.5gb of free space. I use one of my toucpads for flying my non-electric antique Luscombe and keep all my section charts in the Touchpad along with videos I take with my GoPro.
[TouchPad Development] woodytrain:
I was referring to space in /system (e.g. /system/app and /system/priv-app) which is where the google apps are installed, when using pa-gapps install scripts, rather than in /data/app which is where apps are installed when downloaded directly from Play Store.

(for more on how this works see the pa-gapps FAQ)

When I upgraded to recent CM ROMs I set /system at 600MB, to future proof so to speak. But if you set for /500MB and install the full gapps packages, that could prove problematic if you don't have enough remaining space for ROM growth.

Of course the g-apps install scripts are suppose to test to ensure enough space is available in /system before flashing.

Do a df in terminal to view your filesystem disk space usage.

P.S. YouTube videos appear fine in the YouTube app, when running in default resolution, even in a full window mode. But I get an error when switching to HD version of videos. Haven't checked to see how they render in a browser window.

In Developer Options I have all the checkboxes under "Hardware Accelerated Rendering" unchecked (which is default install). Not sure if this matters for YouTube HD videos.

And haven't yet checked to see how MX Player is working with H/W+ decoder..
[TouchPad Development] johnbelloh:
When I went to datamedia I set system storage to 600 with Tailor. I just did a df with terminal and /system shows 590.6. I guess doing the "future proof" was a wise move.

CM11 battery drain stats

Running Battery Monitor Widget on this ROM (01-25-1014).

I'm observing -21 to -23mA drain at sleep.

What are you getting?

What should be expected?

I know...a bit OT...I'm running Greenify and Wakelock Detector. I observe numerous Wakelock triggers from Google Play services, while the TouchPad is asleep. Anyone "Greenify" Google Play Store on their CM11 install. Greenify suggests "system apps are not safe to be greenified in general"
[TouchPad Development] _litz:
It's been my experience that when you try and "shut off" the google services, they tend to go nuts and repeatedly attempt to get their data, resulting in even worse battery drain.

Most of the google wakelocks are location based, and you can control those via the location settings, just set it for max battery savings.

then turn off location via wifi (even when wifi is off), so it doesn't try and turn wifi on during sleep times.
[TouchPad Development] darkknight1812:

pa_gapps-stock in 600MB system partition?

What did you do to get CM11 & pa_gapps-stock installed in your /600MB system partition?

My /system partition is 600MB. I formatted /system and flashed the CM11 11-26-14 nightly. Then in CWM Recovery attempted to flash PA-gapps_stock (01-23-14). However the install script burped reporting not enough room in /system.

Which CM11 nightly did you install? And are you certain you installed the Google STOCK Package from PA (the largest 263MB download)?
[TouchPad Development] johnbelloh:
I just doublechecked and the gapps package I have been using is the PA STOCK (263MB) from 01/17 not 01/23. When I went to CM11 I cleared the decks with ACME uninstaller2 and installed with ACME installer 5M followed by resizing everything with Tailor in WEBOS. Here are my file sizes: /boot 31.0M /system 590.6M /data 24.6G /cache 196.8M

I'll download the 1/23 gapps and let you know if it loads.
