Hmmm, 6/28 has been working great for me... is it even worth my time to try 7/3? 7/8 definitely wasn't good for me.
[TouchPad Development] FranzVz:
I'm having issues with 0706

I thought it was because I was using the Google Now Launcher as supposed to Trebuchet, but even after deleting the Now Launcher, there's an issue specifically pulling down the notification bar.

Sometimes when pulling down the notification bar, the tablet hangs up, and then immediately the System UI crashes (no navigation buttons below, or navigation bar). But what's even stranger is that it doesn't say anything crashed. Then the tablet goes blank, only a hard restart works.

I have checked off one thing in Developer Options. Force GPU Rendering. I will uncheck this and see if it does it again. Let me know if you guys experience any crashes like this. Specifically when checking notifications.
[TouchPad Development] Shyamani:
I have checked off nothing in developer options.

I use the VTL Launcher. The symptoms are exactly as described.

[TouchPad Development] Nomad1600:
I tried using Google Now launcher, started having issues immediately so quickly went back to the stock launcher. Too bad since I use Google Now on my phone and Nexus 7.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Try Go Launcher or ADW Launcher. I've used both and like both. Currently, ADW is my fave! ;)

From my last rom, CM 10.2, I updated to the 07/09 build but I kept the /data alone and the remaining for the "sdCard" is not available.

I have a 32 GB. I was thinking about resize partitions to have the /data and the sdCard as one in Tailor. But it is there another solution?
[TouchPad Development] canadagolfnut:
This has probably already been answered, but is there any app/mod that allows the moving of the 3 softkeys (back, home, app switcher) back to the lower left when in landscape mode?

Cant *stand* the buttons in the center, its a strain to reach them. :(
[TouchPad Development] Azza_1:
I also have the same issue, using Google Now launcher. Might try Nova to see if that solves the issue.
[TouchPad Development] waynekirby:
There is an Xposed module which can enable it, I can't remember which one though... Have a look through the popular ones features i.e. Gravity Box, X Blast Tools, Xiu Mod etc...
[TouchPad Development] canadagolfnut:
Thanks, never heard of xposed before, but i see theres tons of stuff in the modules section, Gravity says its only for aosp and not CM, so not sure if I will try that one, but there are tons listed, and hopefully one has what I want.

Will post back if I figure something out. :)

Use touchpad toolbox by jcsullins.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Beside not completely understanding what you are saying, it sounds like you did not properly install this data/media Rom. If you had followed directions correctly, you would have ended up with a small media partition and a very large data partition.

The question you have to ask yourself is if you want to keep WebOS installed or not. If you don't, then J.C. Sullin's TPtoolbox will take care of installing a data/media Rom quite nicely. But, you need to follow his instructions exactly to do so. If you want to keep WebOS, then the best way to do so is make a nandroid backup, copy that and any files and folders you do not want to loose over to your PC.(music, photos, etc.) Boot to WebOS and use settings/reset options/erase USB drive to clean off all files and data from the SD card. Use ACMEUninstaller2 to remove Android from your TouchPad. Now follow Sullin's instructions for TPtoolbox and only use "install Android". DO NOT use "Complete Data Reset"!!!!! When the toolbox is done, you will have a data/media Rom installed and WebOS still have installed. The only thing you might find is the toolbox has only left you around 600mb for WebOS and you may get some warning from WebOS about that. You can use the toolbox to adjust the partition sizes and give back a small portion of memory to /media. I would suggest you do this first thing before adding a lot of data and files to the internal memory partition. Lastly, all those files and folders you copied to your PC, copy then back and place then on the internal SD card. That nandroid backup you made is only if you wanted to go back to your old install and that's another story for another day.
[TouchPad Development] JTH182:
So I figured out what is causing my problem, if anyone can help:

When I enable Xposed Installer on any nightly from July, SwagbucksTV crashes immediately, but when I disable Xposed it works fine. On the 6/28 build everything works fine together, so obviously something has changed between then and now and it has to do with the ROM itself, not the apps.
[TouchPad Development] sibeans:
i had stability issues before with trebuchet with reboots, etc. with previous builds, so i switched to google now launcher and pretty much stuck with it. i tried nova before too and loved it but i'm more into keeping it simple and sticking with GEL.
[TouchPad Development] FranzVz:
I'm on 7/12 right now. Going to stay with treb to see if there's no crashes. Will try GEL soon again.
[TouchPad Development] nicogri:
Hi guys, Just flashed latest nightly and have freeze problem. I had that problem since I used latest Evervolv nightly (related ???) and so I decided to flash because scrued for scrued...

So I tailored manually as specified on post 1 then change cwm and finelly wipe data and all the rest and install rom and gapps from sideload.

My problem is with apps hanging on refresh or scrolling mostly Facebook Twitter tapatalk.

Most of the time I can force close them but sometimes it completly freeze the tp and I have to hard reboot it

I am using nova launcher prime and I also had à freeze in terminal so I think any app May be concerned...

Is it possible that the problem be in sources that may be common between the 2 roms ?

---------- Post added at 11:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:14 PM ----------

So I confirm back to trebuchet and no problems at all So far So seems to be nova compatibility issue
[TouchPad Development] lvguy85:
Not sure if I was experiencing the same issues, but my tp would freeze on me and require reset from physical buttons. Was also experiencing random reboots. Not sure what fixed it but I think it might of been the disabling of either the lock screen or OK Google detections. I think it was the Google now that caused the issues. I have been running free of those issues since disabling. Hope this helps you.

I'm running 7/5 build

Thanks for the Great job guys it's an awesome ROM with no complaints the fact that you guys got almost everything working great with the latest android is unbelievable. This community is what makes android so great
[TouchPad Development] texastutt:
I'm having the same with 14/7 & 15/7 builds. Nova just updated too. So Nova could have a lot to do with it
[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
I am having good luck with Nova on 7/14.
[TouchPad Development] mschumacher69:
Hi guys, I'm having the same issue, have tried both Trebuchet and GNL to no avail. I don't think it's a launcher issue. It happens when I pull down the quick settings panel. When I first boot the tablet, everything would be fine, it only happens if I pull down the quick settings panel after a while (1-2 minutes after boot). The system UI would crash (notification and navigation bars would disappear) then they would appear again and the lock screen would come. Unlocking the screen at that point just freezes the tablet and the screen would turn off after that until I hard reboot it.

The same thing happens if I lock the screen with the power button or if it locks on its own. Only a hard reboot would turn it on if this happens or it would reboot itself.

This is rather rendering the tablet useless... Has anyone figured out what's causing the issue and how to fix it?

The weird thing is that it doesn't happen immediately on a fresh install, it only starts kicking in after using the tablet for a while. I am testing on 3 tablets, 2 have been used for a while after freshly flashing them and have the issue and the 3rd hasn't been used as often, I only restored the apps and left it laying down and it still works fine. I'm on the 13/7 nightly if that matters.
[TouchPad Development] Mixyde:
Thank you for your answer. It just that I had on CM 10.2 a small /media and 26gig for /data that I can use with WebOs. But your solution is better I think to have a proper install. I wanted to know if there was a another solution than erase all but it is fine.
[TouchPad Development] Azza_1:
I switched back to trebuchet right after my last post and I've not had any issues. The occasional screen off randmonly but nothing like when I was using Google Now launcher and certainly no notification freezers, nearly all were on the quick settings side before and since the switch of launcher I've had non. I haven't tried Nova yet and this has been fine.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
I personally cannot stand the Trebuchet Launcher. I have used Go Launcher, Nova launcher and ADW. Of those three I prefer ADW. But as always use what works best for you!

[TouchPad Development] Nomad1600:
Had been using the Holo launcher that came with the ROM. Was happy enough, but I have gotten to like the Google Now launcher on my phone and Nexus 7 so I tried to install it on the TP. Mistake... quickly went back to Holo and now just installed Nova Prime (I must have purchased years ago for a different device) to see how it goes.

Chromecast Screen Mirroring

I am wondering whether anyone has a Chromecast and used it successfully to do screen mirroring (beta) from touchpad. There's an Android app mirrorenabler to allow additional devices to use chromecast mirroring. Thanks.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Is what you are calling Google Now launcher the same as what I have heard of being called Google Experience Launcher.(GEL)
[TouchPad Development] mschumacher69:
Yes, they are one and the same. It used to be called GEL now it's called GNL.
[TouchPad Development] Nomad1600:
Haven't posted a screenshot in a while... using an Android L theme from the playstore and the Android L keyboard.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
OK, thanks. I did try GEL for about a minute, didn't like it. :(
[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
I had all of my HpTP ON GEL. Once all the ROMS got to 4.4.4 it seemed like there were so many Fc's. that the machines became almost not usable. At first i thought the problem was the 3.4 kernel because the 3.0 had problems, but not as many. When Shumash changed his ROM from 3.4 to 3.0 it became usable. After a few days i felt that all the machines were problematic. Somewhere in one of the threads someone mentioned changing launchers. I really liked GEL, but i tried running Nova. It was like night and day. So i would recommend changing launchers to your pre kk days. Here is how I have the 4 machines that I have with me now set up :

Flintman Evervolv 4.4.4 Nova, last nightly

Milaq CM11, 4.4.4 Holo Launcher HD , 7/15 build

JCSullins CM11, 4.4.4 , Nova, 6/25 snapshot

Shumash PAC MAN CM11, Holo Launcher HD,7/16 build

All of them are running great. Thanks to all of the developers.

Disabling it from any screen and just enabling it from the Google Search app solved the issue for me.

Thanks to [MENTION=1298618]lvguy85[/MENTION] for pointing that out!

Edit: I would also recommend disabling it from the Google Search app as well because opening Google Now when it's enabled would crash the System UI as well.

I am not a a real speed freak but I do check my Quadrant scores periodically. I have a few touchpads with different ROMs on every one. On the machine with this ROM I changed the runtime to ART and it seemed to be faster. I have it running on my PAC MAN ROM also. The score on this one was 3896.

Milaq decided to keep media unmounted in android so only webos can see it. Its not a problem, its just the way the dev coded his rom to his liking.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
From what I have read, ART can work on the TouchPad. What you have to keep in mind that using ART may break some of your apps. It seems that the developers of some apps have not included the code to take advantage of ART. Use Google and you will find a list that has been compiled of what apps work with ART and which ones don't, at least not yet. I imagine that Google in their infinite wisdom will eventually replace Dalvik with ART completely. That's what they think is best for all of us. :(

[TouchPad Development] texastutt:
I'm having a lot of FC of apps, and now I'm beginning to think it has more to do with flashing ROMs and using the TP everyday for the last 2-3/4 years. My phone's don't last this long and it's similar symptoms. Anyone else have a similar opinion?
[TouchPad Development] theechap:
Android L will in fact be doing that. There is no Dalvik in L.
[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:

It's not Google's call, it's a result of litigation with Oracle. ART outperforms Dalvik anyway, apps will get caught up.

Got a link about this litigation?
[TouchPad Development] onlinespending:
Downloaded latest nightly (7/21) and can report that Netflix garbled video is present. Did a completely fresh install on a TouchPad using tptoolbox. I don't care too much since I only use it for Chromecast which works just fine. It's only when playing on the TouchPad device itself.

UPDATE: Also just got a Sleep-of-Death. That's a little less forgiving :)

Under licensing and patents: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalvik_(software)
[TouchPad Development] Moody66:
Its an ongoing issue. One that Google at some point will lose if not outright but by terminology. Been going on over a year now. They will have no recourse except to dump Dalvik it pay oracle. Not something google likes doing.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Having done a little reading, the lawsuit has actually been going on for four years. And now looks like it's back in the original court to be tried all over again. So I am guessing that Google has created ART to replace Dalvik so regardless of the outcome of the lawsuit, Dalvik can go away and Android will live on with ART.

Interesting comment by James Grimmelmann, a copyright law professor at the University of Maryland in Baltimore on the US Court of Appeals decision/opinion:

"We had one of the most technically accurate opinions replaced by an opinion that doesn't really understand what an API is,"

Sounds like Google should hire this guy to help with the retrial.

[TouchPad Development] Doopliss:
I don't think the development of ART has anything to do with the Oracle lawsuit. The structure of the Java APIs will remain the same. It's about performance, efficiency and smarter memory management.
[TouchPad Development] noseph:
I have always assumed that ART was a direct result of the Oracle Java the API lawsuit against Dalvik since developers need to tweak their apps to work with ART.
[TouchPad Development] johnsmith33584:
Then it sure is one heck of a coincidence after Oracle sues Google over their use of Java API's that ART magically appears and it looks like with the next major release of Android, Dalvik will be gone. If they do loose the next round, they are going to have to a least pay for the time they did use them.

What is really interesting, computer companies pay licencing fees to use other companies creative property all the time. Either Google is too cheap to pay for the API's or Oracle is wanting to charge way more than what they are worth.
[TouchPad Development] Doopliss:
You can see the Android 'L' APIs on developer.android.com. All the java ones are still there. I'm not sure what difference you think ART makes to the Oracle lawsuit.
[TouchPad Development] Moody66:
Its all about terminology. Silly but true.
[TouchPad Development] johnsmith33584:
First off, this taken from an article in Extreme Tech: "The next major version of Android, which will probably be unveiled at Google I/O next week, will remove the Dalvik runtime and replace it with ART — the new Android Runtime."

Here is the link to the article: http://www.extremetech.com/computin...s-new-art-runtime-to-boost-speed-battery-life

ART does not make any difference in the lawsuit. Where did I say that?

What I did say in my post was: "Either Google is too cheap to pay for the API's or Oracle is wanting to charge way more than what they are worth." In other words, the lawsuit prompted Google to decide to create ART for one of those two reasons. (IMHO)
[TouchPad Development] Doopliss:
They speculate on a "possibility that ART is a reaction to the ongoing court case between Oracle and Google over Dalvik", but they offer no evidence or explanation of how ART addresses the issues of alleged infringement. Given that the Java APIs will still function the same way in L, ART is clearly not a response to the central claim of the case.

Sorry, I meant what difference you think it makes to subject of the lawsuit, i.e. the alleged infringement of Oracle's copyright on the Java APIs.

Anyway, apologies for the thread derailment.

Seems there are some users complaining of video streaming issues for months now. I get this in all CM11 roms.
[TouchPad Development] johnsmith33584:
Actually, it was Airtower that brought up the lawsuit, not me. He was replying to something nevertells2 posted about ART replacing Dalvik.

"It's not Google's call, it's a result of litigation with Oracle. ART outperforms Dalvik anyway, apps will get caught up."

If the Java API's have nothing to do with ART or Dalvik, then you are correct. Dalvik will eventually be replaced by ART and the API's will remain as you suggest. I read through that article and they don't mention the lawsuit. ART is just a move by Google to improve Android's performance. And if you look back at nevertell2's post #1547, all he was saying was that Google was going to replace Dalvik with ART. Nothing about any lawsuits. Maybe you should ask Airtower where he got the idea that ART is the result of Oracle's lawsuit. :p
[TouchPad Development] airtower:
Damn, I got called out :p to be honest the recent posts in this thread have eclipsed 100x what I knew when i brought up the litigation begin with. I had remembered an article that associated ART with legal proceedings, but I never read much into the situation to validate the speculation.

RIP HP Touchpad

Hi recently updated my TP to the 07/27/2014 nightly and when I reboot from recovery my touchpad never came back.I have been running Milaqs CM 11 4.4.4 for a few weeks now with no real issues (until now). The battery level prior to installing the nightly was @ 92%. Now the unit will not charge or start with ANY button combo.I have 3 different HP wall chargers I can use and they all work on another TP I have. I also have tried connecting it to the PC and using my touchstone charger. Oh also did a clean wipe/install of Kitkat along with, probably a mistake, wiping WebOS!

Please any help?
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Why do you think removing WebOS was a mistake?

Probably time to give this a try: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/38786-tpdebrick-v004/
[TouchPad Development] WildKun:
What you can suggest as a stable nightly to go with atm?
[TouchPad Development] jmatt64:
So this can be run thru UNBUNTU even if my PC fails to recognize the TP?

Do you know if I can use the tpdebrick using the 64 bit unbuntu 14?

Sorry steps are not too clear....
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
I had a similar problem on a personal build using Milaq as a basis on 7/27. I was able to get into recovery by holding the power button and continually pressing the home button. Can't remember what the magic number of presses is (:silly:), but it's a bunch, something between 12 and 20.

For some odd reason my nandroid was unusable so I had to start from scratch with an old version of my rom and my gapps. Then I restored most of my apps with a somewhat dated titanium backup. Bit of a pain, but I am back up and running. Haven't tried a new build since then.

This may all be mute if your TP is drained from staying on; then the real challenge may be to try to get enough charge into it to get into recovery as described above.
