Are the cm12.1 builds you have in your folder usable? If so, are the sources you included in the OP for building cm12 the same needed for 12.1?

[e] The latest cm12 build crashes constantly, can't even make it through setup and like someone said 12.1 can't connect to wifi, back to stable 11 for me.
[TouchPad Development] vmahe53:
can we discuss here about your cm13??? I installed your cm13 but after booting it stopped at starting screen
[TouchPad Development] aapatters:
Where are the timestamps on this forum?

Viewing on a phone here and can't find them

My Touchpad is glitching out and my touches on the screen are registering in places that I didn't touch - this thing used to work great. What happened?

Feels like the whole cyanogenmod ecosystem is falling apart.

I have a deep respect for free software and contribute money to it so I am looking for guidance, my device is broken. Is this rom dead? Should I just buy another one and reluctantly use a tablet which is owned by Google?

Please advise with either a way to easily get touches to register in the correct place in my tablet, or advice that I should abandon this project

Move up to Evervolv, Nougat.
[TouchPad Development] daedric:
Dalvik uses caches with DEX, which is small and can be generated faster. Yet code will be compiled live via JIT compiler, making app launching slower.

Art uses ART, which compiles everything (it can) on installing, making for slow(er) app installing but faster opening (the first time at least)

Problem is, you can't strive for file size AND speed. Choose one :)

On the first boot, every app is being DEXed and then ARTed... use ADB logcat, you'll see :)
[TouchPad Development] Atari-San:
What surprise me, i did backup the dalvik cache (which should be the art cache, right ?) and restoring it was not really faster.
[TouchPad Development] daedric:
The cache might be considered invalid for a number of reasons, and Android will clear it and re-generate it :)

I just got error when install this rom gapps .I try to flash 20140105 kk gapps and no error it worked.when i reboot i got sound search error from google play .i will search msy be clear cache Now I am updating.let see how it works
[TouchPad Development] ajcbrown:
Should it have a boot logo on the first boot or just a black screen while it loads? Mine's taking far too long after successful flash :S.

Edit: Nvm all good :)
[TouchPad Development] vik5:
It will have cm logo .it takes long time
[TouchPad Development] sstar:
I had a similar problem with my last update on the Evervolv rom, I downloaded it again and then figured out that my original Dl was not the correct size /corrupted.

Hope this helps.
[TouchPad Development] 4GivenByChrist:
I've been running the Jan 7th build for a few hours and it runs very smooth. YouTube videos seem to run a great percentage of the time very well, however Netflix doesn't and the sound seems to fail.

By sound failing, there is no sound in YouTube videos except on the rare occasion and also no sound in system or other apps, again except on the rare occasion.

Edit: Turning off the Audio FX got the sound going. It It's sort of "scratchy" in the Play Music app it will stay distorted until I pressed the home key then it sounds perfect. In YouTube it stays distorted. I'll keep messing around to see if i can get the sound to get cleared on YouTube

Edit 2: I've verified on multiple audio apps that the pressing of the home button (hard key) to minimize the Audio app clears all distortion and sound plays perfectly. This doesn't work with YouTube since YouTube pauses when you press the home button.
[TouchPad Development] jaltman:
I downloaded, flashed the updated recovery, rebooted, wiped, flashed the rom and gapps, booted fine, but once the boot finished, the touch screen was unresponsive to any touches and couldn't do anything. Had to hold power+center button to force a reboot and tried the earlier 0105 rom, same thing. Booted fine, but unresponsive touch screen and couldn't do anything. Touch responsiveness inside TWRP was fine. Went back to another rom for the time being....
[TouchPad Development] McBeanTIO:
I'm dumb...spare my ignorance

I'm not too tech savvy on the inner workings of these Android builds, but if the Evervolv ROM (5.0.0) has working Netflix and YouTube - how hard is it to leverage the tweaks to improve performance in 5.0.2?

Is the code and configuration parameters so vastly different? (I get that it has to be integrated and compiled, but I have no conceptual reality of how hard it would be to find those settings in one ROM and use them in another.)

--McBean
[TouchPad Development] allstar319:
Really? I have no issues with high battery drain on mine, although I did do a data/factory reset in TWRP before I installed this build over my kitkat. Is it high when the tablet is just idling, or when you're actually using it?
[TouchPad Development] heavyt:
I had the same problems with builds 5 and 7, 4 was ok and 8 is OK.
[TouchPad Development] FletchF:
Does this ROM support multi-user? That's the main thing missing from Evervolv for my use case.
[TouchPad Development] vinukondamahesh:
i reflash a6 firmware ,i think its ok nw , need to check for few days then only i can say....
[TouchPad Development] jaltman:
Thanks. I downloaded them all and had the same problem all around. I wonder why I am having this problem without others also reporting it. Nonetheless, I will keep trying as new dailies come along.
[TouchPad Development] Moody66:
Did you flash A6 firmware?
[TouchPad Development] bundys:
What's the speed like for this rom compared to other kitkat roms?

I ask because evervolv's lolipop build is quite a bit slower than their kitkat rom and would like to know if I should expect different results with this rom.

Also, what speed does the kernel allow us to overclock to?
[TouchPad Development] jaltman:
Thanks. I tried reflashing the A6 chip (the old way, from wterm inside webos, not from toolbox, but that shouldn't matter) and that made no difference. Still no touch. Now I do notice that after flashing cm my moboot menu is odd, both evervolv and cm are there, even though i did a total wipe. Selecting cm fails to boot, but selecting evervolv boots cm. HMMMM.
[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
Jcsullins has a fix for that moboot problem on his goo.Im folder.

https://goo.im/devs/jcsullins/cmtouchpad/misc/update-boot-cm-default.zip
[TouchPad Development] invisiblek:
Well, the problem is there are several repositories that are different between Evervolv and CM, tracking down the issue is tough now too because I don't have a Netflix account anymore (I only had it for the month of December on their trial thing, I didn't use it much so couldn't justify paying for it).

Can you check today's build (or anything after today) and see if Netflix is working now? Also make sure NuPlayer is off in Developer Settings (it'll be off by default on clean flashes starting today)
[TouchPad Development] jaltman:
Flashed the boot update, but it didn't do anything. So I am still in the same boat. Let me ask this, using the latest twrp, i have been formatting the data partition rather than the 'factory reset' because I am not sure how complete the factory reset is. I dont want to disturb the webos installation. In switching between 5.0 evervolv and this rom, should i be doing a factory reset and will it wipe my webos install?

Thanks for the assistance.
[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
Factory reset. It will wipe data but not the webos.You will also have to reinstall gapps. I just ran that moboot fix yesterday and it worked.

---------- Post added at 01:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:34 PM ----------

I just tried Netflix on todays build, it would not link up. The program loads but the movie never finishes loading. I am dirty flashing, if that will make a difference let me know. THe NuPlayer was off. Let me know if you want me to try a clean wipe and install.
[TouchPad Development] jaltman:
Thank you Jerry. I have met the enemy and he is mine. The problem was that my boot partition is not big enough and the uImage.cm file failed to copy because the uImage.Evervolv file was not being deleted first. With the proper uImage file in place the touch screen works and all is well. I guess if want to go back and forth from now i on i will have go into the boot folder from twrp and delete the old uImage file before reflashing. I'll make my boot partition larger, but cm isn't deleting evervolv and i will do that manually.

Thanks again.
[TouchPad Development] invisiblek:
Crappy, can you get me a logcat of that please?

I pushed a fix for this. Starting with tomorrow's build you shouldn't have to do this manually anymore.
[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
I can't get any of the logcat APks to run
[TouchPad Development] mpgrimm2:
I'm going to reshare this again. See my original post for more detail for the more curious folks...

Its been a while (been busy with work etc) but this will help. (I guess the boot files are still unique per ROM).

Installed using TPToolbox-2014-05-18-v40

I switched over to this ROM two night ago using the 0109 Build. I have to say I'm far more impressed with the performance of this ROM than Evervolv. Perhaps that's attributed to the larger SYSTEM partition that I setup based on the OP's guidance. The ROM has run very smooth. I had to reinstall GAPPS after the first boot. For some reason when I launched the Play Store icon, the ROM said the app wasn't installed even though the icon was there, and I recalled seeing it install during the flashing process. Oh, well.

Think I'll stick with this ROM for the time being and see how the new builds progress.

--McBean
[TouchPad Development] brchickery:
Is there anyway to effectively overclock using this rom? I used to use the built in options.

P.S. Thanks it really runs well. I cant believe the legs on the Touchpad. She sure is a beauty.

[TouchPad Development] firepower9966:
Wifi sees my router and takes password and saved it, but i dont get a ip address and wifi symbol is hollow.

get same result with evervol lollipop rom too, but kitkat rom is OK.
[TouchPad Development] jaltman:
My problem was that the old uImage file were not being deleted from the boot partition and there was not enough size for the new one. If you are back on kitkat you can use root explorer to delete any unused boot files. You might also reflash the A6 chip. I not sure it helped, but i did it between failures and success. Make sure you have at least 1 GB in the system partition. Perhaps you can expand the boot partition in toolbox, I dont use it. Make sure you are using all the recommended files, I use TWRP for recovery, the pa gapps, etc. This runs really fine once you get it running.

Let me know if I can help further.
[TouchPad Development] rebel1699:
I have been running evervolv for a week now, and the lag in the whole system basically made the tp unusable. Loaded this rom last night, and the difference is night and day. Your CM12 is running as smooth as I could have hoped. Excellent work on this and many thanks.
[TouchPad Development] ranjib:
I now ordered a forth touchpad to check the newest CM12 rom....

I've tried this and still cannot get Superuser working. I tried to update the binaries both ways (normal which failed and flash the update .zip in TWRP which failed). Without it, I cannot restore my apps+data with Titanium... Anyone else having this issue?

EDIT....

This is on the latest build, but I also had it on a build from a few days ago. No issues on Evervlolv.

EDIT...

Several reboots later....Binaries updated.
[TouchPad Development] chris5s:
Early days, but flashed this on a bit of a whim....gotta say I'm impressed at the stability and fluidity of this build so far.

First boot, as mentioned in the first post, takes a long ass time! so much so that I was considering force-rebooting the thing...but got there and like I say, its impressive.

Thanks for continued development, awesome work!

Peace.

Working BlueTooth?

Anyone connected any Bluetooth devices so far? I'm trying to connect this pair of new ECandy headphones and the TP can't find them when the device says it is pairing. The headphones connected just fine to by LG G3 running KitKat, but have not had success with TP on Lollipop. (And yes, I made sure they were not connected to any other device while I tried to connect to the TP.)

I'll try a few things and see what I can figure out.

Any takers?

hi,

I tested Nightlies of 10/11/12 and last one of the day cm-12-20150113-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip.

- I have resized to 1g my system partition

- Lot of freezes->autoReboot when wake up

- Players can read some videos (aka BSplayer)

- Youtube apk Work but doesn't load video 90% of time

- Buttons of sound volume are reverse and go to freeze->auto-reboot

- Microphone, and LED button works

- battery set to 6000mAh by default (mine is a 6300mAh)

I have set to balanced>performance but the last one seems to be more reactive.

Have you a Changelog of Nightlies somewhere ?

Is it ok to put here our remarks ?

Thanks for the work

That's cool. Maybe a note in the OP to remind installers on how to turn on root access in this new Rom.

NT
[TouchPad Development] KingFatty:
If you use the toolbox to do a clean install, does it default to the 1 GB partition? Or does the toolbox assign a too-small partition size by default, and you have to manually increase it to 1 GB? Apologies but I don't have access to my touchpad at the moment. I plan to do a full wipe clean install using the toolbox.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
It would be helpful to know what you have installed now. I get the impression from your post, you have not removed WebOS yet, but do have a data-media Rom installed. Unfortunately, Sullins did not release any info on his latest TPTB, v42. If you know anything about TPTB, based on the Rom you choose to install, it sets a default /system volume size for that version of Android. From what I have read, v42 is Lollipop aware and will set /system to 1 gig. However, if you check and find it did not, you can use TPTB to "Resize Android Volumes" to adjust the size of CM-data, CM-cache, CM-system and media. I do remember that the default size of /system for KK was 800mb. Even though I don't have a LL build installed yet, I went ahead and used v42 to increase my /system to 1024mb.(1 gig) I'm still waiting for these new LL builds to settle down and mature some.

Any ideas guys?
[TouchPad Development] FletchF:
Thanks for the link, but I think I'm still missing something. "pm get-max-users" reports "5" and indeed the latest version of this ROM contains "fw.max_users=5" in build.prop. However, I am still missing the "users" section under device settings and tapping on the user icon from the quick settings shade launches the contacts app rather than showing the select/create user dialog like a stock Lollipop ROM.

What am I missing? Do I need to do something else to enable multi-user?

Does Skype work with video or is the camera still not working?

Screen DPI

Hi, all.

I've seen this question elsewhere in other threads for other ROMs, and did a quick search in this thread and didn't find an answer, so I thought I'd ask: Is there a way to change DPI in Lollipop?

Thanks in advance.
[TouchPad Development] chris5s:
I would say go ahead and use the usual route, i.e. edit build.prop or use one of the many apps on play store that do this for you.

Using this build right now on my TP and haven't found the need to edit or change DPI, but its possible...

Peace.
[TouchPad Development] xyomguix:
Same as previous version : build.prop (at least on my N4)
[TouchPad Development] daedric:
The pm get-max-users reports 5, and you must create users via command line. After you add the 2nd user (after the owner), the Users menu will pop up in settings, but it will be the only way to change users, got into settings, users, tap user and change. The lockscreen will not provide this function.
[TouchPad Development] FletchF:
OK, thanks. I'll give that a try. I wonder why the standard Lollipop multi-user UI stuff is not in this ROM.

What is going on here, clean install of latest build and still the digitizer doesn't pick up any touches? That's the last 2 builds in a row.
[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
Working for me on 2 machines
[TouchPad Development] puhleez:
How did you install? TWRP? CWM? Touchpad Tool? I'm using TWRP 2.8.3.0. Digitizer works with Evervolv edition... something fishy.
[TouchPad Development] bundys:
I'll try to make my setup as clear as possible so that hopefully we can figure this out.

Recently I wiped my TP using the toolbox, deleting the webos partition, otherwise defaulted to stock values from toolbox. Then I read that I might need a 800MB - 1GB system partition to install new builds, so I reduced the media partition by 400MB and gave that space to my 600MB system partition for a total of 1GB.

Next, I installed Evervolv's 5.0.2 with 3.4 Kernel - install went great, but performance was still a bit sluggish for a daily driver, so I wanted to try out the CM12 builds to see if they were any faster.

That's where the problem occurred. Install went fine using TWRP 2.8.4.0 after wiping dalvik/cache/system/data, but when I got to the selecting language/region screen, I can't select anything, push any button, etc - basically no interaction with the screen whatsoever. Power button and home buttons work (didn't try the volume keys).

To test a theory, I wiped dalvik/cache/system/data again and installed the latest Evervolv build - again, no issues, screen responded to all my touches.

So today, a new CM nightly, figured I would try it out. Same wipe procedure, install from recovery, same result - screen not responding to any inputs.

Also, by reading the forum, seems like I'm not the only one experiencing digitizer issues on install.

Edit: Just tried the 3.0 kernel CM12 build and it installs and works fine too.
[TouchPad Development] chris5s:
I came from Evervolv's ROM too, using an earlier version of TWRP, and all is fine with the digitiser.

I was going to suggest trying the previous version of TWRP, but I see another user has the same issue using the same version I am on, so it can't be that... very strange. And annoying!
[TouchPad Development] Steelskinz:
I had the same problem because in moboot it booted on evervolv and not CM12 even if i only got CM on my TP. Used the .zip file to delete evervolv entry and all is all right !:fingers-crossed:
[TouchPad Development] glooking1969:
I'm on the same boat. Just yesterday night I tried evervolv but was disappointed with the performance of the tablet. I'll give CM12 a try today. I suppose that if I do a complete reset of all data and start over there would be no issue with the digitizer like you guys have experienced. But if I run into something I'll post here. (btw, will use twrp 2.8.4.0 for this later).
