Not able to transfer big files

I am using this build for last few months. Today I tried to transfer big amount of data via mtp mode. it failed after some time. then I tried by changing the mode to usb mass storage. There touchpad's internal storage is not mounted instead the sdcard is mounted whoch is useless. please tell me a way to transfer large amount of data to the Touchpad!
[TouchPad Development] real_sl4cker:
You could use adb push as an alternative or try one of the many file transfer apps available in the play store

[TouchPad Development] Atari-San:
If you have many small file, use filezilla on your PC with a ftp server on your TP Touchpad, it should be faster for small file from wifi. It was taking 48h+ for transfer from USB 45K file of a pc game with voice and took 15min from Wifi. Using usb seem slow to say to switch to next file when they are many very small one.
[TouchPad Development] gtallmadge:
A great program is Dukto and is available in the play store.

It is cross platform and very fast with WiFi transfers of files of any size.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Have you tried mounting USB from recovery? CWM and TWRP both do that. Do you still have WebOS installed? You can mount USB from there. However, if most of your memory is in a data/media partition(volume), that cannot be mounted as USB, you have to use MTP.

Is there a thread for the Lollipop version of Pacman?
[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
Yes scroll down a few. It runs nice.
[TouchPad Development] Sivabalan:
Thanks for your reply. The problem is with the cwm recovery that I was using. I replaced it with twrp and was able to transfer big files in recovery MTP mode.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
So you are saying that there is the ability to transfer files via MTP in TWRP? I'm partial to CWM myself, so I've never delved that deeply into the latest versions of TWRP. Does it still have the ability to mount USB?

[ROM Update] 29 JUNE 2015 FINAL

A final updated ROM is available at the OP and OTA download links.

Merge upstream

kernel commits to fix SOD's and low suspend power

NOTE: I strongly suggest that if you are running a LP build, you either restore a 4.4.4 nandroid backup first or do a factory reset

before you flash this build. Suspend power isn't as good as it is in 5.1.1.

Miss your SCHIZOID 2.11 battery life ...

Thanks for the reply. I should have mentioned earlier that, I also faced the major battery drain issue while the device is in sleep, like from 52% down to 2% in 5 hrs (!) sleep, where SCHIZOID 2.11 gives me around 0-2% max. I tried the A6 firmware re-flash with TPToolbox as suggested but the drain didn't improve much. Just to give you a picture, on SCHIZOID 2.11, I can watch 3 full 1.5 hr movies with sound and full brightness continuously, but on Pac-man I can only see for 2 hrs max. Surprisingly, once I'm back on SCHIZOID 2.11 everything is as it was. No drain. I just love it .. :good:

Another thing I faced is, whenever I booted the device, it would boot directly to the homepage and then after 1-2 second shows the lock screen. At this point, the lock screen clock will not show. Once I unlock using pin and get back to lock screen, the clock will show as if nothing happened (!)

Let me know if I can be of further help, like testing .. :) .. I owe you that much.:good: ... good luck.
[TouchPad Development] shumash:
Schizoid 2.11 is a completely different kernel and device source, which is why the battery use is so low. The 3.x kernel rom's all have about 30 mA draw in sleep, as opposed to 3 mA in the 2.6.xx kernel rom's. I don't know if the 3.x kernel will eventually go that low.

I'll look into the lockscreen issue, but I've warned not to use one in the OP for other reasons.
[TouchPad Development] jcsullins:
Above does not apply for x=0.

I typically see down to 6 mA with 3.0 kernel.
[TouchPad Development] shumash:
Good to know. I'll try out the 3.0 source and see if that clears up some of the other issues.

Thanks.
[TouchPad Development] Atari-San:
Is there any possibility you can fork the old kernel of Schizoid to Kitkat release for the powerful overclock that kernel was able to do ? Thx for your great work and return. ^_^
[TouchPad Development] shumash:
The primary reason that so much effort was put into the 3.x kernels was that 2.6.xx just couldn't handle kk. You give some, you get some ...

Migrating to this ROM from KANG Schizoid 2.11

Sorry if this question has already been asked somewhere in this entire forum, but there is just too much information to sift through. Are there any clear instructions for migrating from non-datamedia ROMs (I used Kang Schizoid) to a datamedia ROM like this one?

I would like to preserve the WebOS volume and just do a in-situ replacement/upgrade of Android.
[TouchPad Development] shumash:
Thanks to jcsullins and merkurie, who built PAC with the 3.0 kernel, I've also successfully built the ROM with the 3.0 kernel. I intend to do some testing, but if everything works, I'll post it later today or tomorrow.

Great Job [MENTION=1009123]shumash[/MENTION] !!!

The move to the 3.0 kernel source has greatly improved the stability and performance! I've found only Netflix force closing no matter what, everything else runs smooth.

I have to test with an older version of Netflix to see if it is just the current version causing issues.

[Edit] Checked the Netflix 1.8.1 apk and that runs fine, so it is something with the updated app.

Merge upstream

Enable GPU 3D/2D overclock to 320/266 MHz

Enable higher CPU level 2 overclock (CPU much more stable and smooth at 1782 MHz)

You'll need Kernel Tuner to properly set each CPU core and the GPU (available in the Play Store). If you don't understand what you're doing when you OC the kernel, you shouldn't do it. I guarantee nothing except that it can be OC'd. If you leave the settings as flashed, you should be fine. If you change them, you may break stuff since OC'ing one TP is no guarantee that another can withstand it. I'll be working on adding schedulers and governors.

Enjoy.

This ROM is great. I got a quadrant score of ~3100 with the 7/14. I had a lot of FC until I switched to Nova launcher, now it is a lot more stable. My on!y problem is the Navigation buttons an the notification bar disappear randomly.

Check your kernel frequencies. Drop them to 1188 max, 384 min and see if it goes away. Then incrementally increase the max frequency. After that see if you can lower the min to 192. Also check any apps you are running in the background. They can lock up the system.

Will try. I run the same apps on multiple ROMs and nothing locks me up on others. Well, not on the older SCHIZOID but that is a completely different base.

I'm not aware of any that cause problems specifically with this ROM.

The TP is not supported and there are many requirements for chromecast/miracast to work on a device. That being said, I built a patched version of my ROM with all but the on/off switch, which I can't include without too much revision. Here's a link to it:

PAC-man Chromecast Test

Tell me if it works in my thread (sorry for hijacking this one}

in reply to your comment in another thread I thought I would try it out for you.

I actually thought it was just an update for Chromecast and as I wasn't concentrating just flashed it over my Milaq's rom without wiping anything. Well the rom is running perfectly really smooth and slick.

As regards to chromecast if I go into Display and lights, cast screen and it says no device found and even though I've turned it on and cast screen remains greyed out.

If there is a specific app I should also download I can't find it but am more than happy to test it if someone can provide a link.

If there is anything else you would like me to try I am more than happy to do so (Probably when I'm a bit more awake)

Great rom, which I think I'm going to stay with and will do a clean install if I have any problems. Thanks.

Hi shumash, just one thing I noticed. Using Touchpad, I have more black bar on the both sides of the TV. But using Nexus 7, it does not. Do you know off hand is there anything I can change to remove the black bar from the TV? Thanks.

Eric
[TouchPad Development] shumash:
I'm glad it works, but I may not be able to include it in my builds because it will have to merged into the entire PAC repository for all devices and may not work with some of them. We'll see ... I don't have Chromecast, so I can't help you with trouble-shooting.
[TouchPad Development] drmarble:
If you are using a custom framework (explode? exposed? the name is escaping me. It allows lots of customization, gravity, soft buttons, etc.). then you cannot use ART. It just reverts you to dalvik. They are incompatible.
[TouchPad Development] tpuserhp:
Hi shumash, thanks for the update and your efforts! At least the change works and other people might want to try your change to use the Chromecast for screen mirroring.

[TouchPad Development] Razor512:
Is there a way to combine the status bar and navigation bar so that there can be one bat at the bottom of the screen like with CM9?

Given the size of the screen and the number of items on the top and bottom bar, there is more than enough space on the bottom navigation bar to house all of those features. with the way it is now, a significant amount of screen space is wasted by having the status bar at the top of the screen rather than all of those items as part of the bottom bar.
[TouchPad Development] hunter_sephiroth:
Finally i encountered a bug :D

Interesting since that's disabled in the current version. How are you getting it (Xposed framework or some other app)? If so, can't help.

[TouchPad Development] hunter_sephiroth:
I'm just adding the expanded desktop tile in quick settings and activate it. sometimes only the navigation bar vanishes. sometimes also the status bar.

not using xposed or something like that...

but since you didn't provide it with the rom there is an explanation for me not being able to recover the status by swiping while using full screen apps or is that another thing?

Hi I've just done a fresh install before changing from Davlick to art everything has gone perfectly for all my apps apart from nova launcher, I cannot install from Play store it is coming up with error 24 neither can I restore it from my Rom Toolbox pro backup.

Can anyone help as it's my favourite.

[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
Nova installed OK for me on this ROM. I think if you clear play store cache it will work. You can do it in ROM Toolbox Pro
