Facebook......pfffff. Nice Rom Flintman. I LUBS YOU!

8)

Donation very soon. Almost caught up on finances. So sorry to be a slob and have been using the rom without donating. I always donate to the devs. I've hit up JC twice for his contributions to me being able to use my tablet. I do SO much work on it it has become invaluable to me and I now own 3 Touchpads.

One with JC's 4.4.4 one with your 5.0.2 and one with JC's 4.2.2 with Linux 3 Kernel. Much love to all the Devs!.

P.S. You might be thinking...he has 3 tablets and he cannot donate?? Well my brother gave me his cause he iPhone 6+ is large enough for him to do what he needs now so he wasn't using it and gave it to me and the other one I got for 35 dollars at a garage sale! BWHAHAHAHAHAHA. Battery was dead dead dead but I opened it up and using my hobby lithium Ion charger and a quick initial jump of the battery to 15 volts I was able to get the lithium ion charger to accept it and hitting it was a 0.8 amp charge and bringing it up nice and slow got it back.

PLEASE DO NOT TRY THE 15 VOLT JUMP IF YOU ARE NOT ELECTRICALLY INCLINED YOU WILL IGNITE OR WORSE DETONATE THE BATTERY. LITHIUM FUMES CAN KILL YOU SO PLEASE DO NOT TRY IF YOU ARE A NOVICE.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tripple-c:
This should not even be mentioned let alone attempted. Overcharge lithium batteries are highly susceptible to exploding and worst can easily cause permanent serious injury or eve death. If the battery is bad simply replace it. Its not worth your life or someone else close to the pad when it explodes. Mishandled these are the deadliest batteries on the planet and you'd be smart to disguard that one.

If you knew how dangerous it is messing around with them you would not have did what you did. Got your will prepared? Anyone around it can be permanently robbed of their health, and life. It no joke nor an overstatement.

Bluetooth

Thanks for the Lollipop ROM. Works great, use as my daily ROM.

Although I do have an issue with bluetooth. When I attempt to connect my Bluetooth keyboard or mouse the touchpad displays a message that it could not pair with the device because of an incorrect passkey or pin.

I can pair with my cellphone and even send and receive files.

Evervolv 5.0.0p1 AOSP 5.0 BT Audio Support

Since this is my first post, I can only hope that this finds its way to Flintman.

Bluetooth support is a problem for me. One of my daily uses for my TP is as an Internet radio, which I pair via Bluetooth to my home stereo or other speakers.

I have a number of Bluetooth devices which I use with a TouchPad on a regular basis. Unfortunately, only a few work with your otherwise mind-blowing version of Lollipop. In fact, only a few BT devices even show up on the list after a scan. That is different from CM9, for instance, which would list everything within range, whether it was a recognized and/or pairable or not.

Evervolv 5's Bluetooth handling seems to be great with keyboards. I love it. I've lost count of all of the BT KBs I've amassed over the years. The only KB that doesn't work is the old HP iPAQ (see below), but that's not the deal-breaker for me. What kills it for me is the absence of a working BT audio receiver for my home stereo. I have two: a Belkin F8Z492 (F44), and an XtremeMac BT Home Connect (USB BTH) -- and in spite of the "USB" in the model number, it has nothing to do with a USB port. Neither even shows up in a scan whether in pairing mode or otherwise. The same is true of any of my BT speakers. I understand that BT support is still a WIP. Is there anything I can do to help?

As for the one BT keyboard that doesn't work, it's an old HP iPAQ foldable keyboard. In its day, it was a very chic gadget, but I've never had any success in using it as a keyboard with webOS, iOS or any version of Android (since Gingerbread). Its behaviour is always the same:

- in the search for Bluetooth devices, it shows up as "BT-FoldableKB"

- the only pairing code that works is "0000" (but it must be entered on both the TP and the KB)

- it will appear to pair (it'll show up on the list of "Paired devices")

- but it doesn't recognize that it is a keyboard, and can't be selected as an input device.

I think the only possible solution would be to have a special handler in the OS, which would force any device identified as "BT-FoldableKB" to be handled as a keyboard and input device.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flintman:
If you can get me logs after you try and connect. It will hopefully help to get another device going. I have a cheap speaker from Walgreen's works great. You can use evervolv toolbox under settings to upload logs.

Thanks

Is this helpful? or should I do something different or a specific test?

EDIT: I got an error message for trying to post the link to my uploaded logs. Hope this helps: 5c687857
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flintman:
Just try to search or if able to connect to device. If it doesn't connect. Get a log dmesg and logcat please. Hopefully some errors. Been looking at the code may build a Bluetooth heavy log build to help fix some of these devices.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Do Not Touch:
Okay, I rebooted, turned on BT and put the XtremeMac in pairing mode. It lists both nearby keyboards, but then says no other BT devices are nearby. I refreshed and got the same results. My logs have been uploaded to 86eafd91 (again, I don't have enough posts to show the whole URL).

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Do Not Touch:
Any Way to Isolate Non-working BT Devices?

Since I have a lot of BT audio devices which don't work, is there anything I can do to help isolate each in a given log? For example: I make sure that there is only the one BT device to be tested on and in pairing mode, then reboot the TP, turn on BT, then upload the logs with a note that has the BT device name and model. Would that make it easier? Or, should I try every non-working BT device at the same time and upload that log instead?

Is there something I could look for in the logs to make this easier for you? As I said in my first post, these audio devices aren't even showing up on the list, so I never have the opportunity to attempt to pair with any of them. Does that mean they won't even show up in the logs?

Also, since these devices worked in previous versions of Android (CM9, 10 and 11), is there anything I can look for in those devices that could help?

I currently have 4 working TPs. Two have CM9, one has CM10 or 11, and then the last one is the one I'm using for evaluation of new versions (currently Evervolv 5). My programming skills are pretty outdated, but I may be able to pick through code or drivers and harvest something of value.

Let me know if there's anything, including the above options or beyond, that I can do to help.

Thanks.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flintman:
Just give me one device that you use mostly or want to. Lets start there sometime if one works more will follow. Give me the specs of the one device and if you want. Send me one log of a working BT on cm 11 or what ever and one from evervolv lollipop not working. Ill compare the two and also look at the code. It maybe as simple as a setting i need to add. Does it work in cm12? If so that is the working log i would like to see more

Thanks.

usb audio

I just installed the latest nightly tenderloin 5.02 on my touchpad. Everything seems to work well except for the USB audio. Is that up and going yet? I saw the option to disable it in developer mode.

Thanks-
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tripple-c:
Ok I installed the latest update 2 days ago. On the charger during and since doing it. All came up ok and working. Screen turned off with the power button as I used to do. Now it will not wake up. The bottom home button light flashes now and then as I gather alert for emails etc as it normally does but nothing else. The power button does not wake it up either. The screen is black.

Not sure how I am going to reboot this now but previous updates were without incident done in the same fashion. Is there a bug in this build.

PS: I got to the boot menu holding the Power & Home button down for some time. The Evervolv boot menu appeared then it restarted. Odd but I'll have to see whether other functions and apps are working for a few days.

Bluetooth Audio Receivers

Sorry for the delay. I switched ISPs. After over a week, I still haven't finished switching all of the hardware (routers, devices, phones, etc.), let alone email addresses and accounts so that I can joyfully FIRE my old provider.

I also had a bit of a challenge finding the most recent version of Android which supports the Bluetooth receivers I use. Turns out to be cm-11-20150113-SNAPSHOT-jcsullins-tenderloin. If you have a preferred way to collect and upload the logs, please let me know. Otherwise, it'll take me a day or two to find the time to do the research on how CM11 does it and then figure out a way to get it to you.

Also, if CM11 logs won't help you, which CM12s should I try? Does the kernel version matter?

The Bluetooth audio receivers in question are a Belkin F8Z492 (F44), and an XtremeMac BT Home Connect (USB BTH). Both play nice with CM9, CM10, CM10.1 and now CM11.

I am aware of your efforts and new challenges with 5.1, so there's no rush. But I would like to follow through on this, since we already have the first half of this (the logs from evervolv 5, where the devices weren't recognized).

Thanks again for all of your efforts to bring us Evervolv on the TouchPad.

Evervolv Slowdown

Been experiencing some bad slowdown as well.

Kinda bugs me because I play Hearthstone a lot on my tablet and the slowdowns kinda stopped my from playing it.

It was actually present on the 3/11 and 3/19 nightlies only and not the ones before.

I am considering reverting back to an older nightly because of this issue.

5.1 Build

I agree with other folks on 5.1. We still have issues with sound and BT not detecting any of my new devices. It should be a clean install as dirty flashing had many issues.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HighAllegiant:
The previously experienced stutter/slowdown in apps is no longer present in the 5.1 test build (f2fs).

The only issues I've experienced in the 5.1 build are the wifi issues (which a quick turn off and on of the wifi fixes) and the oversensitivity of the keyboard where it detects more than one press.

Otherwise, the 5.1 build runs very well.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flintman:
Did some more updates today. Fixed a few issues. Still working it maybe ill post an update tomorrow. WiFi now connected on first connect but still want to test it.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tripple-c:
Hmm this means I have to get the other Toolbox in somehow (2.8.4), running 2.8.3 and then convert the files system for it to accept the 5.1. Is this going to require a clean wipe and everything done from scratch. I have had luck wiping everything without trying (wanting to) in the past which takes a while to get it all back again. I did not see Google apps offering to reinstall the installed apps afterwards so it has been one at a time. (It appears turn on for them to be backed up to them) A friends which I converted did do it automatically and I didn't even configure anything on his. LOL

I'll wait and see if there are any pointer in pushing the newer toolbox onto my pad first and then have to figure out what to do afterwards.

chrome red frame, touch sensitivity

Installed this rom today. appears to be the most stable of all the LP rls, thanks for all of your hard work!

Just wanted to chime in that 'setprop persist.sys.strictmod.visual 0' doesn't resolve the red frame around chrome but that's such a minor annoyance since i'll probably just use ffox anyways. tried overclocking the CPU as mentioned by another user to remedy the hypersensitive touch issue but that didn't work for me. looking forward to the next update, thanks again!

Edit: Using the included Toolbox to change CPU governor to PERFORMANCE and setting Max to 1674 MHz seems to have done the trick. Still get the occasional double-tap, however it's significantly improved.

Very curious to play around with the custom DPI option...

NovaCom Driver

I'd recommend the Java universal install and what I used yesterday to reset my Mac and enable Novacom that was no longer working. I also had to purge my previous Novacom install, but this should not be a problem if it is your first install. I'd also recommend bouncing over to TPTouchpad forum that's located one level up and using this quick install method if you are new to setting up your TV.

Google App crashing repeatedly

Anyone know of a really solid version of (pico) gapps? Mine keeps crashing on me. It didn't crash at all for the first week or two, but in the last couple of days it keeps crashing. Once it initially crashes, I'm given the option to click "Report" or "OK". Neither makes much difference, and after that it will crash again every five minutes until a reboot. Then it usually works pretty well for about a day or so again. Oh, and ever since this started happening, the Recent Screens page shows "Couldn't add widget." along the top where I presume the Google searchbar should be? Can't recall.

Here's what I'm currently running for whatever it's worth:

Hey Flintman, thanks for an awesome ROM. Brought new life to my touchpad!

I do have 1 issue (the only big one I care about) and I'm not sure if it's been discussed here. Ever since 5.0 my wifi will stop working and I have to disable it and reenable and then actually click on my wifi name to get it to work again. Now in 5.1 it stops working mostly when the screen sleeps. The nice thing is that to get it back is a lot easier. I don't have to disable/reenable, all i have to do is select my wifi name in the list and it works again. I've made sure to disable the wifi to save power but maybe the setting isn't working in your builds. Anyway, thought you'd like to know and hopefully it's an easy fix.

Thanks again!
