Yes the 2-6 TEST BUILD has the camera fix. a factory reset is required and also recommend a format of system. Install test build along with gapps and working camera. If you did that check my notes in the first post. If you are still can't connect delete the DCIM folder from your internal/external sdcard. Make sure you back them up as they are your photos if any in there. Im posting the 2-10 test build once its done uploading which also has a bunch of BT updates. Unsure what it will fix but just a bunch of updates.
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
posted
[TouchPad Development] EricBlade:
fwiw, I'm frequently lazy (but will do the right thing when the lazy thing doesn't work :) ), and installed the 2-6 test build dirty, just did a cache reset on it. The Camera didn't come up as an available item, so I went into Settings->Apps->Camera and uninstalled, then installed Google Camera, and that is working fine, and so is this "Z-Device Test" app I picked up.
[TouchPad Development] psychephylax:
I think my problem was that I grabbed the nightly instead of test. Traveling so I will test this on Thursday or Friday
[TouchPad Development] gaww:
I dirty flashed test '10 and deleted, extracted camera app and reinstalled - it works. Pic's went ring into DCIM folder OK.
[TouchPad Development] EricBlade:
Dirty flashed 2/10, it was super slow and laggy when it first booted, then it rebooted itself a couple times, and has been .. as far as I can tell exactly the same as the 2/6 test since.
[TouchPad Development] babcocca:
Flashed 10. No go on the BT.
[TouchPad Development] mitchbaria:
Thanks for the new rom....when flashing I'm getting "Error executing updater binary in zip" and "E: unable to mount/ system" ,,,, can this rom be flashed through twrp directly or does it have to be installed via the toolbox?

YouTube issue

Flashed 10/2 build today and that YouTube videos are not loading at all.... The app opens.... But the video does not loads.... Anybody facing this issue ??
[TouchPad Development] ergo911:
Nope, all working here, made a flash over 6.02 test.

Bluetooth connects to my sony speaker and shows that volume control is for bluetooth but sound still coming from touchpad and is not directed to sony speaker.
[TouchPad Development] babcocca:
Installed the 3.0 kernel build from milaq. It also was no go on the BT.
[TouchPad Development] ano.cresent:
huh !! :confused: I did the same, flashed on 06/02 build .... but somehow mine is not working ..

Let me do a flash again of 10/02 build and see !!
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
So last night was working with invisiblek and we got f2fs format working on the TP. This does require you to format data and chache to f2fs which requires a new recovery. Its not that bad you backup your data move the TWRP backup to your pc. Change the format to f2fs, copy your backup back to the device and restore then install the new rom and poof you are on f2fs. It won't be required you can stay on ext4 if you dont want to use it. The question i have will it be used? I noticed a little increase to the performance with it. Just testing a little more and i can have an test build later today.

UPDATED

I have some work in progress to fix the overclock issue with the 64GB machines. In regards to the 4g, I have issues with my 4g model and it won't boot i had left it for alone for a little bit and the battery drained and im having issue charging it. At first i though i had a dead battery but the more i look at it may be bricked so i need to spend some time on this and figure it out. So the progress on that is on hold until i fix that. BT has always been difficult on this device. I really need to sit down and review the chip in the machine to determine what i can handle and start adding in more support. The logs provided have been a help and BT will take some time to add in more devices as i can get my hands on them. Our nightly box is giving us some issues ATM so nightlies are not poping out but we are looking into it and should have it solved shortly in the meantime ill post test builds when there are major changes for this device.
[TouchPad Development] EricBlade:
Just picked up my touchpad after it sitting on the touchstone all day, and the screen was totally black. Had to force-reboot it. It also is sitting at 48% battery despite having been completely locked up for I don't know how long (up to 10 hours since i last looked at it?) I remember this happened once several builds ago, too, so not really something i'm terribly worried about unless it starts happening more frequently.

No worries on the time lag on Bluetooth, I've never really been a heavy Bluetooth user, I just want to mess with a bunch of cheap Bluetooth hardware that I picked up over the holidays :) Once it's working, maybe I'll become a heavy Bluetooth user.

In earlier builds (like early December?), I was able to see all the devices around me, but connecting was mostly a big fail. I remember I got at least one of my keyboards to connect consistently, but the ROM itself was running so poorly back then, that entering text was pretty much impossible. Even with the software keyboard, had same problem, though. Typing too fast would crash it. Once those problems got resolved, the Bluetooth was down to only seeing my main PC (which has a $5 refurbished no-name BT adapter, but connects just fine with all my other toys), and not connecting to anything. On the bright side, I guess, my PC and Mac and Laptops and phone and iPad can all see the TouchPad ... :D Anyway, I'm just trying to help where I can to try to get more things working .. I wish I had the time to dig in hardcore and contribute, but I've got entirely too much stuff packed into my life right now :-S

It's really hard to brick a TouchPad .. not getting any flashing LED, or anything out of it? Have you had it plugged in with an original charger/cable for at least a couple of days? Done the hold-power-and-center-1-minute thing, just in case it's actually on and locked up, with the display not working? (like what just happened with mine :D )
[TouchPad Development] 4GivenByChrist:
Absolutely interested!
[TouchPad Development] Tripple-c:
With the next release. What will be the process for applying that update?

A complete erase reset again as I did with this. I manually increased the partition (if they took place I am not certain). I did not notice a format option and believe that Android install script was prepping that. I am slow reader so it may have scrolled by. I upped the CPU MIN clock to 540Mhz to see if it takes some of the sluggishness out but that did not. wondering if the cache is too big now or something. Trying an Android backup will be something new to figure out now that at least all that I have used is working on one system. the other will undergo a full erase and start again which is at my buddies place (his) next month.
[TouchPad Development] rickpub:
Thank you! I'm looking forward to it. Just hate that my daughters TP is faster than mine...lol!
[TouchPad Development] Tripple-c:
Ok, good news. F2FS ? What formats that file system 32GB system if needed. Backup with TWRP, from above it appear it goes into the Window PC somewhere. Maybe that's why there were error messages when it was being installed on two systems. I thought it went to the SDRAM partition internally. Still figuring this out.
[TouchPad Development] gaww:
Had not tried Bluetooth with test 5.0 builds on with HP keypad until now. Initially it connected (with code), but only blocked the internal keypad and did not work. Turning bluetooth off and back on a few time got it working Ok now.

Am on Feb 10 test build.
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
New build up

**Added F2fs support requires a complete wipe and convert data and cache to F2FS. Explained below. Not required just giving you the option. Also untested but the 64GB machines and 4g machines should now have 1.7 overclock. Please let me know if you don't. A few other changes to the updater and toolbox as well**

F2FS does seems snappier but don't recommended for a daily user. You need to convert over your partitions with new recovery in first post. I gave steps on how to do it but always BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP. I didnt' 8) and lost my data but im always wiping and starting over so i don't care i just want to be clean BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP. 8).

Also 64GB and 4g users let me know if you have overclock you should now.

Thanks
[TouchPad Development] chmcarro:
I have some free time today and wanted to give this a whirl. Coming from JCSullins latest CM11 release, I did a complete wipe using TPtoolbox and just renamed my recovery, rom and gapps files to ones that JCSullins approves and resized system to exactly 800MB. The problem with this method is the toolbox automatically installs the rom before you get the chance to reformat the filesystems. On the first reboot, I missed the chance to enter recovery, so hardpressed my way into recovery, reformated, reinstalled and it took about 10 minutes or so for the initial boot (as expected). I'll play around for a bit and reply here if I find anything. Great work on this.
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
Ya talking with jcsullins about maybe incorporating the format into his tool but there is no resizing tool for f2fs so it wont be possible. But you can always do exactly what u did. Its not required to run f2fs but its an option if you want to use it. I noticed a slight increase but the benchmark maybe went up a few points. Which those change with every run anyways its hard to say.
[TouchPad Development] rickpub:
She's alive! 1782 works! Thank you very much! Working great... Any chance of going higher or is this a kernel limitation? Anyway 1782 rocks!!!
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
You can always go higher but to prolong this device into the next version of android don't want to push this old girl. 8)
[TouchPad Development] 4GivenByChrist:
Used the updated TWRP to format data & cache as F2FS. Restored CM 12 backup and runs amazing! I could not fix permissions though, cache and data wont mount in recovery... Everything else seems to work perfect
[TouchPad Development] Vash:
wow.

I just clean installed 20150212 with f2fs data/cache over 20150205.

The performance improvement is amazing, especially Chrome!

Good Job!
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
What version of TouchPad Toolbox are you using? V42 fixed the problem of having to rename files.

Thanks, I was using 40. Its the latest from the forum, but I see now 42 on his goo.im page.

Keyboard Swyping

Thanks for this awesome ROM!

Couple of issues that I noticed:

* Netflix does not play the video sometimes (just keeps on loading it). Reboot usually fixes it, but the issue comes back. Reported by my 7-yr old, verified by me :)

* Keyboard does not allow "swype" typing. Not a huge deal. I couldn't find any settings which would enable it.

Thanks again

Xposed for Lollipop http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3030118
[TouchPad Development] EricBlade:
Go to the Play Store and search "Google Keyboard". Install that one. The Android keyboard looks very similar, but there are differences. Such as Swipe. :D

Flintman: Just installed the Feb 13 nightly, no change in the CPU freqs for 4g. Should I be checking the Feb 12 testing instead?
[TouchPad Development] bundys:
Bootlooped my device flashing this - I guess I got a little too eager and excited. Will have to clean the mess it created on my TP in the morning though, too tired right now.
[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
On the 2/12 build. I tried to install with the new recovery and file structure. I am not sure if it worked. Is there a way to check?

It also seems that Netflix and YouTube do not work. It also doesn't work on Invisiblek's latest. It may be apk updates.

Great stuff here, thanks.

Edit. Rebooted and Netflix and Youtube work.
[TouchPad Development] rickpub:
Yes, I did even worse, I quickly installed it instead of looking ahead and seeing your warning... oh well, have nandroid backup at least...
[TouchPad Development] EricBlade:
Ok installed the Feb 12 on the 4,g and the freqs go up to 1782 now. The effect on general performance doesn't seem to be quite as dramatic as it used to be bumping it up.. But maybe that's because this one was stock 1.5 so I didn't feel it as much before.

Or maybe android 5 isn't quite the CPU slug 4 was :). The keyboard response does seem perhaps a tiny bit improved.. But it hasn't been bad at all since the mid December builds.

Thanks!!
[TouchPad Development] psychephylax:
Tried the latest nightly with a clean wipe. Camera works but Chrome still has that flashing red border when browsing. Any plans to look into that and anything I can do to help with debugging?
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
Its on my list just want to finish the 4g ril. It does it on my s4 as well so i have it on two lists 8)
[TouchPad Development] EricBlade:
So, I've tried out this device hardware test app, called "z-device test". It gives me some interesting results, with the 2-12 testing build. I've also checked it with my Nexus 5 to make sure that the app itself doesn't appear to be wonky.

Camera: It indicates that there is no camera -- despite Google Camera and Hangouts both being able to access the camera.

GPS: Also indicates no GPS (if I'm not mistaken, 4G does have GPS, and it has worked in the past on some Android builds, but I'm not positive?)

Wifi: Looks great!

Bluetooth:When it detects Bluetooth devices, it displays 18 devices -- all with the same name/mac/description -- my desktop computer. I would expect it should be picking up approximately 5 devices -- four computers and my Nexus 5. I tried turning off Bluetooth at my main PC, and it would not detect any devices. WHen I turned BT back on, it picked up 18 duplicates of my PC again :(

Accelerometer: Looks great!

Compass: The reports from the compass seem to be inversed -- compass heading and Pitch seem to be swapped -- which may explain why attempting to use some maps applications result in the screen spinning :)

CPU/Memory: shows only 818.19MB total in the system -- not sure what exactly accounts for the memory, but Android 4.1 reports 838MB, and webOS 3.0.5 reports 880MB.

Microphone: Starting the mic test crashes the audio system

.. everything else looks like it's working as it should.

Hoping that this might help you with any of the problems :)
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
The 4g has more then the WiFi model. But a lot of those cell features wont work right do to this ROM build for WiFi model. Working the 4g ril which is being a pain. I got it connected just no data no real errors so i have to pick at different parts of the code to find out why its not getting data. There were a lot if changed from kit kat so its a soon process.
[TouchPad Development] EricBlade:
I know, I'm just trying to provide any data that might help :)

So you got your 4G working again?
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
Ya no problem. Always looking for info just wanted to let you know about the 4g. Ya had corrupt a6 firmware causing my device to not charge. Working the ril as we speak. I feel like I'm jabbing in the dark but ill get it just need to spend the time and follow the code to determine why its not getting data. The funny thing is in getting an IP from att. Just nothing when i go to the browser or ping. Its connected but its not its weird.
[TouchPad Development] Battlestorm:
thanks for breathing life in the the touchpads :) mine has never felt so fast

quick question do the new nightly builds include the F2FS code? (2015.02.14 onwards)
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
2-13-15 and newer will have it in it. Its not required to switch but wanted to give another option.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Am I missing something here? I understood that F2FS was a function of TWRP not the Rom. If you format /data and /cache F2FS, do you

have to install a build dated 2-13-15 or newer? You know, like one can install Windows on a hard drive formatted fat32 or NTFS.

Or when referring to 2-13-15 you mean TWRP?

NT
[TouchPad Development] Battlestorm:
the kernel needs to be F2FS aware as well, which in out cases is only the one flintman supply's with the rom. so yes we need to use 2-13-15 or newer if you formate any partition to F2FS
[TouchPad Development] EricBlade:
So, I'm curious -- am I the only person that has problems with the sound just crashing out on it, and having to do a Hot Reboot to get it back? And when it does go out, attempting to use any app that makes sounds locks up?

I haven't seen anyone else say anything about it, so I'm guessing that it's not quite so common, but it's been a problem for me since day 1.. although it has become somewhat better in almost every release.
[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
I never lose sound. Listen to Sirius all day on one machine and watched a movie last night on another. No sound loss.
[TouchPad Development] Gil1957:
I really like the OS. I have one slight problem. After about a half hour, it starts making a bell ringing sound. I found a way to hush it, but then I have no sound when I watch a video. Is there something in the settings that will stop this?

I am also using VLC for android. Does anyone know a better video player?

Thank you.
[TouchPad Development] gaww:
Are you on a clean wiped install or dirty install with old data? If not the clean install then try that.

It is odd that you have been having that problem, so if clean install doesn't fix it - it may be the tablet. You could try another ROM to see if you have problems with it also.
[TouchPad Development] EricBlade:
It persists regardless of clean or dirty install (or at least it has, up until the test build from 2/12). It seems like a sound daemon? sound server? something along those lines is crashing out .. it happens almost all the time if i load "z-device test" and hit it's Microphone test, otherwise, it's pretty much random and I suspect it goes out when idle, as I'll pick it up off the touchstone, and then the launcher locks up when it tries to play the unlock sound. I disabled the unlock sound, and that has prevented most of my total device freezes, but i'm now in the habit of checking if sound works by pressing volume buttons, and then doing a reboot if it doesn't :D

Sound worked fine in webOS and in some build of Android 4.4 that I was messing with, although there were lots of other problems with that 4.4 build
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
I have tried z-device and can't get it to loose audio as you descripted. you are using a 4g model correct? Remember this ROM doesn't support the 4g model so you may experience different things then other. I haven't tested the wifi rom on the 4g model as im working a rom just for the 4g model. I do get some weird lockup after an update sometimes but a reboot usually takes care of the problem. Im also noticing that after an update just let it sit for a little bit takes care of the problem as well. Facebook seems to be the issue causing this but not confirmed still doing testing on this as it doesn't do it on all updates.
[TouchPad Development] EricBlade:
yep, 4g. Was just wondering what everyone else's experience with this is, because I'm wanting to replace webOS on my daughter's wifi only touchpad when I have access to it again in a couple of weeks.. but if it's likely that she'll be stuck doing a hot reboot or a forced reboot on a regular basis, i'll continue to wait.

Can you help me with some commands from adb shell or some such, to be able to have a look at any relevant logs, when I happen to catch it again? I only know how to logcat, which isn't useful for things that happened in the past :D and I usually can't get very far after I notice the sound has stopped, because it's locked up in some kind of loop at that point.
[TouchPad Development] gaww:
Still odd - I had used OP's 4.4.x ROMs for months and no significant issues including audio - also with current 5.0.x builds. Maybe a clean wipe of the whole android install with the toolkit and then a reinstall of android with it - plus make sure your system partition is big enough with the tool.

Do you still have WebOS and does sound still work OK on it?
[TouchPad Development] EricBlade:
This particular 4G was wiped completely before I installed Android on it to begin with. I'd be happy to give it a shot again (will TP ToolBox v42 actually load this correctly from the start now, or do I have to fiddle with things? Previously, I used TPTB to load a v4 system to it, then used that CWM to install this one..

OOC, anyone know a way to force Android to check in with Google and do it's normal backup thing? The Play Store reports that my device last checked in 8 days ago, so I'm guessing that it's not keeping current backups either. It would be nice to be able to restore straight from Google when I do wipe it :)

Do the nightlies on evervolv.com support the f2fs setup in OP?

[TouchPad Development] gaww:
You may have hit on an issue here - you need to flash these with modified recoveries. I suggest the one in the OP (TWRP), but think a modded Philz also works. May try to reflash with one of these first.

I believe the toolbox does everything based on other posts, but I only used it to increase partition sizes this go-around.
[TouchPad Development] RBJ26:
I have this problem as well, So far I have not been able to determine exactly what triggers it.

I'm running the 1/24/15 build, and haven't had time to try the latest nightly, but will update over the weekend and report back.

Btw, was a clean flash.

I also have another TP that's running 4.4.2 that I'll be updating soon, it'll be interesting to see if that unit has the same issue.

Both TP's are the 32GB version (non 4g version).
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
I have yet to experience my hope, if you see the 5.1 changes it takes about audio issue on specific devices. Maybe that's the fix. Defiantly try the latest build. I would want for tomorrow as ill be pushing a bunch of generic changes tonight and maybe also a little more work tomorrow. So maybe hang tight till a weekend build.
[TouchPad Development] RBJ26:
Will do...thanks.
