Battery Monitor Widget. Set it to log usage. It can have a pretty frequent interval set but expect that to consume quite a bit of battery.

Nightly 2014.03.02

I dowloaded the Latest nightly (2014.03.02) and flashed it via flintman's DM TWRP. It shows the error "symlink: some symlinks failed"

Any solution?
[TouchPad Development] graffix31:
did you change your partition sizes in tailor in webos before you tried? if you did did you format system in twrp or just the caches and data, i made the mistake of wiping system and i thought i was f-ed. just had to reboot recovery and it installed fine.

what were you on before you tried to install this?
[TouchPad Development] superboy123:
Somehow fixed it.

After getting mad, I adb pushed the philz cwm recovery and flashed it via flint's TWRP Recovery. It finished and went into CWM.

I adb sideloaded the Evervolv ROM as philz cwm cannot read the webos media(external_sd as of Flint's TWRP).

It finished and now happy.

---------- Post added at 06:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:14 AM ----------

Now the webos sdcard is not getting mounted. I have all the songs and the apks in it.

I went into Settings->Storage and saw whether it is mounted or not. It says 'Insert an SD Card':(

Solution pllease.

Superboy, can you see the files with a file explorer like ES File Explorer?

Last I checked 2-10-14 build, it could see both sdcard locations.

You may need to do a factory data reset/wipe for new ROM and reflash.

Got a sdcard backup right?

It is with pretty good force 8) been working the CPU issue for the last week and just keep running around in circles. Once this is fixed ill have a nice update for everyone but really wanted to focus on this as this is the last big hurtle we have then its fixing up the small stuff. hopefully I can find whats missing but it's a little like finding a needle in a haystack but if it takes one straw at a time ill find that damn needle 8).

If you can provide logcats/dmesg it's the only way to tell what is going on. It's hard to say why you are not seeing the external_sd without it

Just curious if there is still work being done to the WiFi. WiFi is still good but I get disconnects every now and then and the only way to get it back is to reboot. It happens randomly though when the screen is off so I can't really tell when it happens.

Just followed Grimms walkthrough and install went great. Went through the ROM and checked all the settings. I like dark themes and would love if the toolbox had a dark background. When in a completely dark room, the bright white screen blinds me, lol.

[TouchPad Development] mpgrimm2:
Did you resize the data partition as mentioned in my thread you said you used? If you flashed Gradular's 12gb /data resize zip from the cminstall pack v2 you would have more than enough room. It will leave about 2-3gb to the old webos sdcard .

Note. If you already have a Data Media ROM loaded, you will likely have issues getting the resize zips to work. You will need to temporarily switch back to JcSullin's cwm 6.0.1.9 to use the zips and only if you have free space on the webos sdcard to pull from. Once done you can reload the SeLinux DM recovery.

Or use Tailor from webos.

You can flash the increasing data zip to increase the size of data partition by 512MB, 1024MB or 2048MB. Or use tailor in webos to resize it.

I don't think the resize zips work with data/media recoveries, at least not in my experience… Tailor would be the way to go.

Anyone else having issues with updating apps? I can barely get through on install without it crashing and rebooting. It will even cause a bootloop essentially if the update starts right after a reboot. Other than that everything is working great. Not sure what happened, I did a clean install with the latest build.
[TouchPad Development] mpgrimm2:
Flintman,

Thanks for all the improvements you have been busy cranking out for Evervolv.

On a parallel path, I have a few questions about TWRP (your OP indicates comments are welcome) :

- Is it possible to get TWRP to mount either of the sdcards to the PC via MTP, etc, to make it easier to get the files over for a clean install/transition from a regular partition setup?

(Mentioned in post 2 of my thread) Currently JcSullins CWM v6.0.1.9 for the old partition layout is the only recovery that can mount an sdcard.

- Gradular indicated he is looking into the reasons why the data resize zips do not work with any of the SeLinux recoveries (So the DM transition will be easier).

Do you have any suggestions/ideas that would help? Is it the zips (i.e. update-binary or edify zyntax) or the SeLinux Recoveries? (i.e. mke2fs instead of make_ext4fs mentioned here)

- I see that TWRP has some SeLinux updates on my Nexus5 to 2.7.0.0, if you do consider an update, would those changes even be useful for the TP?

Separately:

- Was there ever any interest from the other devs on standardizing the ROM updater-scripts and filenames? (Mentioned at the bottom of post 5 here )

Thanks in advance.
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
I do myself like having a mount feature in the recovery have been looking into this.

a reason why they may not work is that they doen't have permission from se to change anything but without using the script hard to tell

Unsure on the selinux updates to TWRP as i haven't read into them been busy playing around with this cpu to fix a few issues

I haven't had time to discuss this with the other developers but once i get a little free time will bring it up.

Finally ACMEUninstalled!!!

Finally used ACME Uninstaller and reinstalled with ACMEInstaller5 to install CM9.

After installing CM9, went into the CWM 5.0.2.6 and flased the datamedia zips by the_ape. Installed.

Tried to flash the philz-cwm but failed!

Went to webOS, Got the uImage of CWM 6.0.1.9 from the zip file and used internalz pro to copy the uImage to /boot!

Then rebooted, Went to the 6.0.1.9-CWM and flashed philz-cwm and sideloaded the evervolv zip and pa-gapps zip.

###NOTE### : If you want to use the pa_gapps_stock_4.4.2_X , I would recommend to use tailor to extend the system partition by 150MB! If used the ACMEInstaller5. If used the ACMEInstaller 4 , 300MB! for Kitkat only.

Did a clean data/media install last night, and it worked for the most part, except for some small issues with gapps, but I got that figured out eventually. My issue is that I now don't have a moboot background and when I try copying a tga background file to the /root folder through solid explorer, it tells me that there is no available space left (as in 0 bytes). FYI, I made the folder r/w before my attempt. Any ideas?
[TouchPad Development] mpgrimm2:
the /boot partition is only about 30.99Mb. The newer data/media recoveries take up more space. Space will be further limited if there are leftover Evervolv, CM, or other ROM boot files from prior installs. Hopefully you are using Moboot 3.8 as well. You will likely need to skip the theme/background.

See Post 5 of my Info thread
[TouchPad Development] bundys:
Thanks for the info. I was a little surprised not to have a moboot background, having installed evervolv after running acmeuninstaller and a complete USB wipe in webos. Oh well, I guess it's something I'm going to have to live with.
[TouchPad Development] superboy123:
Any way to increase the capacity of boot partition?
[TouchPad Development] mpgrimm2:
Not that anyone has heard of as far as I know. My understanding is that we are simply able to borrow the extra space left from webos's boot partition to get android on it.

I can appreciate that Flintman. Was really just wondering if you were familiar with Exposed or Aroma. Since installing the latest nightly of this Rom, I noticed a feature missing that if not a pain to add would be really nice. In "Recent Apps", adding a remove all function would be very handy similar to what is available in CM Roms. Thanks for all the work you do.

---------- Post added at 02:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:25 PM ----------

You have to remember that these Roms are highly experimental and you have to be prepared for things like this to happen. Do you make nandroid backups? Did you try clearing cache and Dalvic cache? Did you try a factory/data reset from recovery and restoring your backup? How about completely uninstalling and starting over? These are some of the things you have to be prepared to do when something like what happened to you happens. If you want safe and stable, go back to CM10.1. No crying allowed here. :p

Nope, not one SOD since installing this Rom. I do have hot word detection turned off. Only real issue is the red flash around the edge in Chrome.

Can I just Flash the PA-Gapps over top of what I have? Or, do I need to do a wipe data/factory reset and install Rom & Gapps.
[TouchPad Development] mpgrimm2:
From post 3 of PA Gapps thread:

Edit:

PA's Gapps may be the way to go with evervolv. I have noticed while bouncing around flashing all the different recoveries and roms that if you use the standard Gapps-kk-20140105.zip from Milaq / Invisiblek or Goo.im (Same MD5 for ALL) with Evervolv that the app/shortcut names on the homescreens are cut off (dpi or launcher issue? ) which didn't seem to happen on the PA-Gapps "Micro" version I have tried. Haven't spent any time looking into it to be honest.

Is everyone on Evervolv using PA Gapps?

Note: the PA-Gapps zip packages get installed to the /system partition, so it should not make any difference which TP you have (16/32/64gb) as long as your system has been resized with enough space for the particular PA-Gapps pack you select. Some people may have a 512mb system partition versus the 600mb system partition size setup by AcmeInstaller5 (or worse still, a 400mb system from AcmeInstaller3)

[MENTION=4860841]jerryatherton[/MENTION], What is your system size and how much space is left with each package?

Flintman,

FYI, the link to the Gapps package indicated in your OP returns a

With all the KK Roms you need to flash the Gapps every time you flash a ROM, even when doing a dirty flash.

[TouchPad Development] garux:
I recently changed over from Evervolv 4.0.0p1 non-data/media to Evervolv 4.0.0p1 data/media. In the Non-data/media setting/storage, under USB computer connection, there were three connect as option:

Media device (MTP)

Camera PTP)

Mass storage

In the data/media setting/storage, under USB computer connection, there are only two connect as option:

Media device (MTP)

Camera PTP)

While in the data/media, I've selected Media device. When I do a USB Connection and its connects, while in PC Windows Explorer, under Internal storage, I am seing duplicate directories.

What to Wipe when doing a Clean Install on Data/Media

Coming from the non-data/media world, just a question about what exactly should I wipe in twrp in order to get a "clean" install of a newer version of the rom? I'm asking because I wiped /system, which resulted in a non-bootable touchpad. Had to resort to a backup, but want a clean install of the 3-24 build as I found dirty flashing it raised the power consumption from ~35 to ~55.
[TouchPad Development] mpgrimm2:
Using a proper data media recovery, a factory/data reset will wipe /data and /cache for you without wiping the /data/media/ sdcard. Then format system manually (although Evervolv will do the format during install). More info in my signature.
