[MENTION=1369996]ZeroZorro[/MENTION]....Yep, same for me. Won't work without blockiness beyond 480p. I don't even have 1080 as an option in Quality for YouTube. 720 is also blocky. 480 it is!

I'd like 720 minimum because there is some loss of audio quality between 480 and 720, but not between 720 and 1080, so I don't care about 1080 really.

Sound is important to me you see.

...it's a heck of a tablet though. Well built! And I've had a lot of fun with it over the years flashing and fiddling.

I'm still using the 50gb (!!) from Box cloud that came with my TP...that in itself is highly valuable to me.

Box used to be quite slow, but it seems to be a lot quicker and reliable these days.

Here is the marshmallow kernel, vendor, and kitkat device sources but with wireless and cpu power management stuff added from marshmallow..

*for fun*

Runs quite well. Its CM11 with Evervolv MM Hybrid Rom. (Testing for Sailfish porting actually)

To the best of my memory, Flintman's 0309 testing build with a link in the OP is his latest work.

NT
[TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Normally I would care or even maybe agree.. but I have been trying to get something fixed for 6 months, and I think this is the first time anyone has noticed..

SailFish guys thought it was the framebuffer, or the LCD in the kernel... I think they were right. :D

I saw this patch, hope it works.

https://github.com/Evervolv/android...mmit/30409a8268afac43111fc0c9fdb2ef2ab1cbb930 I emailed the guy who wrote that patch and asked if he thought it might work but I have yet to hear back.. So.. I will be bugging\following this thread. Sorry if you guys all got emails. :D I hope when the screen rotation issue is fixed, perhaps it will be magically fixed in sailfish.

Don't you guys always compile it yourself????

EDIT: Anyone want to take a stab at the compass?? Has that ever worked right outside of WebOS?

I've downloaded this 4/15 edition and dirty flashed it {wiped only system and did Not flash Gapps again}. That went smoothly, but after the reboot, Google Play services continuously fails every few seconds wit a small pop-up. I've rebooted a few times with same problem. I tried to use Titanium to restore the Google Play services module + data; same result.

Recommendations? Clean install or reflash with Gapps at same time?

I also lost three apps that just disappeared. Can't restore them from Titanium backup and can't download them from the store due to problem above. Google Play store will not run due to problem above. Ideas?
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
Odd try and flash gapps and see if it fixes it if not flash both again and see what happens
[TouchPad Development] sting5566:
I flashed both rom and gapps earlier with no issues, also a dirty flash.
[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
4/15 Running great Flintman! I download Current rom and the gapps from the op.

I go into recovery, do a full nandroid backup. I then do a full wipe, dalvick, cache, system and data. I then install ROM and GAPPS. I then reboot into system, let it boot but i dont setup. I then reboot back into recovery and restore data only from my last nandroid.

All my apps work well and sign ins are all in tact. I haven't used TiBu for some time now.
[TouchPad Development] Nomad1600:
I tend to do all the wipes and flash clean. No issues with 4/15. Thanks Flintman!
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
Thanks, Flintman! Done right proper this time and everything working again. 4/15 is fast and smooth. WiFi connects automatically and holds the link for very long periods (router is set to channel 9 in a very crowded neighborhood with lots of signal overlapping). Limited time to test so far, but no issues noticed. All apps present and appear to work as before, even Titanium. But I'm rethinking the backup strategy and utilities {TWRP nandroid for flashing, bulk recovery; Titanium for secondary, minor single app recovery}.

More testing results later this weekend.

Thanks again!

[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
I don't use this function, so can't advise on it. The only incident I've noticed is a furious flashing of the whole screen occasionally when touched. The flickering lasts about a second per touch. In my case this kind of event seems to be more prevalent after using Firefox, but I noticed it this morning after using My fitness pal app.

Update: with the 4/15 release running quite nicely on my testing device, I upgraded my wife's TP to the same Rev level, using the flash strategy proposed by Jerry Atherton in note #1045 above. It worked well, quickly, cleanly and without any trauma. Nothing lost, all apps with their configuration settings, WiFi connecting automatically and holding the link, Bluetooth keyboards operational. Only hiccup is the occasional touch screen flickering after leaving certain apps. Thanks, Flintman!

Update: BTW I'm using nova launcher and SwiftKey soft keyboard, if that makes any difference in the screen flickering issue. I use 3C tools to kill several running apps (Firefox, Nova launcher and SwiftKey).

Hi Flintman,

thnaks for the new 04/15 test build.

I've installed it yesterday.

This build runs so far but the green flashes with hd material played with mxplayer and hd+ decoder are always present.

Sd material with mxplayer and hd+ decoder are ok.

Amazon video plays ok without problems.

Going better and better at each release ! Great job and thanks for all Flintman ! ;)

failed to mount /system

Hey everyone. I'm getting a 'failed to mount /system' at the end of installation of the 2016.04.1.5 release. I'm using TWRP 3.0.0 with f2fs. When I try to install again, I keep getting errors with /system, such as 'unmount of /system failed; no such volume'

I'm coming from cyanogenmod and I'm trying to do a clean install with f2fs support. Hope someone can help.
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
Do you mean /system is formatted as f2fs? I've only read that cache and data should be used with f2fs; /system should always be ext4 format. And /system size should be increased to 1GB at least. Coming from CM usually sets /system at 800MB.

You didn't say which gapps flavor you used. Did you use Pico or nano or other gapps?
[TouchPad Development] ioannis.tp:
That's right, /system is ext4, I've only changed data and cache. And it's size is about 1.2GB. I'm using the nano, but got this error before installing the apps (I did them separately)..

It seems to be an LVM issue. Via the terminal I see that /dev/mapper/store-cm--system is not mapped to anything. I'm not very familiar with lvm, and I can't find any of the lvm tools to view volumes etc.

I don't mind wiping the touchpad clean and starting over. Is this possible through TWRP? I can't even remember how I got TWRP in the first place.

Thanks.
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
Well, you've got the basic configuration suitable, but the name of the system volume is possibly wrong. You might need to get/use TP toolbox from Sullens; this can be copied into the /boot volume if you fix the name to be uImage.TPtoolbox. It should fit in and be useful in some situations.

As to the name of the system volume, I'll have to invoke deeper knowledge people. NT or Flintman, can you advise how to set up the proper volumes when coming from CM?
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
CM and Evervolv have serious compatibility issues. I would strongly suggest a complete data reset using Sullin's Touchpad Toolbox. To avoid issues, follow what I did in post #897. You can always flash a different TWRP and Gapps later and be sure to increase the /system volume to 1GB when prompted if you want to make volume changes. And doing it this way will get all the volume names and sizes done correctly. And of course with a newer TWRP flashed, you can change the /data and /cache format from EXT4 to F2FS.

Re: screen flashing

I have this in a super nasty way on my Nexus 5, using all stock software. I think it's an Android and/or launcher problem, and it has been present since 4.4. Whole screen flashes sickly whenever there's an app that has even the ability to draw over other apps running, even if it's not using that ability at the time.
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
WiFi showing no Internet available

Look at the upper right corner to see the WiFi symbol, it has an erroneous explanation mark with it. Despite this mark, all apps can see and use the Internet, including this Tapatalk tool. See attached screenshot. To clear this condition I just shut down WiFi for a minute and restart it again.

Flintman, any idea what this means or is it serious?

Supposed to mean that the device is connected to a wifi network but can't get an internet connection. Not sure why it would appear when the internet is working fine.
[TouchPad Development] ioannis.tp:
Thank you for the pointer. I managed to install evervolv after doing a round trip with TPToolbox. The latest TPToolbox I could find is v42, which doesn't seem to support these roms/zips. Ended up loading up the recommended roms (cm kitkat I think), then updated to TWRP 3.0.0 and thankfully this time around installing evervolv 6.0 worked. It's looking good so far, didn't have time to play much with it. Is there a more direct method for installing these roms?

No disrespect to the developers, but I'm concerned about security and privacy with all these roms. How do I know they don't have keyloggers and other spyware/ransomware? Do you guys have any tools/methods to check if they are clean?
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
I just encountered the screen flickering issue and captured the various logs for the period. Please look at the attached log set between 9:45pm and 10:15pm. I have also turned on the extended WiFi logging feature (if that provides any additional details, probably not).

[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
When you plug into your pc, there will be a notification drop down that wiill say something like USB connected for charging, tap to change and MTP will be offered..

I am using a Motorola SBG6782-AC Docsis 3.0 with a WPA2 encryption. I've never had issues with any of my other phones or tablets as far as connection. I even tried getting the MAC address and reserving it an IP address but to no avail. Any ideas?
[TouchPad Development] walscobry:
Roger. Have of done tha.. even checked device IDs against what mode selected. still the same ID as when it worked before trying this rom. full wipe and flash. nothing dirty. almost looks like it is connected but not showing any drives/folders in win explorer. I have a 2nd Touchpad but it is in use a musical instrument so would not like to mess with it unless I *have* to. Shame about the official HP BT keyboard not working, bummed.

Thanks for the reply. will keep at it, as I have with these tablets for the last few years! In this time frame, a Nexus 7, ooio model 2 and Nexus 7 (newer) have all come, died and gone and the HP TP keeps on going!
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
I have and use an official HP Bluetooth keyboard, as well as a Logitech keyboard. Both work just great for me.
[TouchPad Development] walscobry:
OK Good to hear. Since nothing is on it yet. I think I will start with a RE-flash and try again. As it is starting to sound like it is just me/my tablet.

Thanks again.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Just for the record, I was fooled by the way this MM build connects to MTP too. But once I figured it out, never had problems switching between charging and using MTP for transferring files. One neat feature of using the notification drop down to switch, after disconnecting, the TP reverted to using USB for charging. If you change it directly in settings, it does not switch back.

Just to be clear, only videos purchased in the Google movies and video app don't play. All other sources like YouTube and Netflix work fine
[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
Try installing mxplayer, that seems to add missing codecs. Usually solves all my video issues.
[TouchPad Development] NewHorizon:
Sorry. I was in such a hurry writing my posts that I wasn't clear. The problem is that I can neither stream nor download the purchased movies on my touchpad. I spoke to Google support and they just said the Google movie and TV app has been updated, so that may cause issues on rooted devices. When I try to stream I receive an error that playback is not supported on the device, when I try to download then I receive an error that I do not have a licence (error -1). Streaming works on everything but this app for some reason.

AHH somehow, my Wi-Fi is able to connect more frequently and stay connected if I have airplane mode on then I reenable Wi-Fi. Weird but it works. Hope that helps other ppl with Wi-Fi issues.

Im not saying you have to use mxplayer to view the movie, it just loads some different codecs. Another thing you may try is to uninstall Google play movies and go to apk mirror and get an older version of the apk go play movies.

EDIT: Well dont bother the above, they do not work either. Google Play is the only video that doesnt work. I also tried an older version of play and it doesnt work either. I also tried on JCSulllins CM 12 rom and it doesnt work there either. Netflix and showbox work fine. Sorry I couldnt help.

[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Since you guys are trying to figure out this video playback issue, it just could be that MM on a TouchPad is the issue. KK is much more mature and has been debugged a lot more. It's kind of which do you want, to be running the latest bleeding edge Rom and live with this and other issues or drop back to a Rom on which you get the playback you want or need? I'm not saying that Flintman won't eventually figure it out, just you need to ask yourself the above question. Nice thing about having a rooted device, you can always install CM11, see how it works, see if it fixes the issue and then restore your backup of this Rom and press forward. OH, and since you already have MM installed, your volumes are already sized for KK. It's just the matter of properly installing CM11. Remember, CM builds and Evervolv do not play well together. :o

And if you have not already done so, read the OP of this thread and read around the last 20 pages or so. Maybe 30 just for good measure. ;) Like you said, a lot has changed in two years and you need to get yourself up to speed on what has happened. And just a word to the wise, depending on your technical skills, installing this Rom might be a bit over your head. Installing a slightly more mature, stable and a bit less experimental Rom might be the way to start out after two years out of the rodeo. That means trying out a CM or Evervolv KK or JB build. I think after doing some reading at the two links above, you will see what I mean. RolandDeschain79 has done an excellent job on his "Installing Android the Super Easy Way" thread. He does not get enough credit for the great work he has done putting that amount of information and education together. Please be sure to "Thank/Like" his work if you find it helpful.

Pretty sure cm 11 is the last time Google Movies and TV content worked for me. Didn't work with CM 12 either. Can't be bothered downgrading. Would rather wait it out.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Just so you understand that Flintman is busy with work and family and your wait may be a long one. If it is not a deal breaker, then his MM build is awesome. If you want Google Movies and TV content to work then you will have to go back to a build on which it worked and keep an eye on this one.

Error executing update binary in zip

Hi at all,

I have a problem while installing Evervolv Marshmallow.

I wanted to install ev_tenderloin-6.0.1-testing-2016.04.15.zip with TWRP recovery 3.0 over CyanogenMod 11 Jcsullins (4.4.4) after I've wiped Cache + Dalvic + Data. Everytime I got this error message: 'Error executing update binary in zip'

I've tried TWRP recovery 2.8.3 and 2.8.5, too. For now I'm helpless. Could you tell me what I've done wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help.
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
I don't think you can flash this rom over top of existing CM. You need to wipe system as well. Kindly read the excellent installation notes provided by NT in this thread back about a month or two, approximately note 982 or thereabouts. Note that the system volume must be increased in size to at least 1GB using jcsullins TP toolbox. From your note it is not clear what the underlying root cause might be. You could also have a bad download of the rom; have you rechecked that?

I also came from CM Kitkat 4.4.4 as well and it is possible. You will have to reinstall your favorite apps again fresh from the Google play store over the air and configure them manually (a lot of time consumption, but necessary).

Thank you for your reply!

I followed exactly your tutorial but while installing Android 6 with tptoolbox v42, this error message was shown:

cp: writing '/mnt/boot/uImage.moboot-new' : No space left on device

ERROR: : cp /usr/tptoolbox/data/moboot /mnt/boot/uImage.moboot-new failed rc=1

What can I do to fix it?
[TouchPad Development] jundaigrind:
Hi petsander,

"No space left on device" in other words, your boot partition is crowded! TIP: try remove old kernel images from partition.

Via Recovery (TWRP, for example) or Novacom (novaterm) open terminal and exec:

Check free space in /boot partition, you need about 6M. (uImage.Evervolv is 5.3M)

For remove old images (caution: make backup) in terminal exec*:

*change <oldsystem> to old system, for example, uImage.Android or uImage.Ubuntu

Check new space:

If /boot free is gt 5.3M, continue the process with tptoolbox.

best regards!
