So it appears letting it settle in worked. No issues so far, and deep sleep was -1.6mA overnight. Perhap my old tablet was grumpy about two updates in the span of an hour or two. But so far happy with the new (7/27) version and Lippy was right, it looks like a number of changes happened going into this release.

edit: it occurred to me I didn't clear all apps before updating to 7/27. I don't think I did before the 7/24 update either, but its possible I cleared apps without thinking of it. I know Flintman suggests clearing apps before updates... is it possible my early issues with 7/27 were the result of an app in the background?

headphone issue fixed

My headphone issue is resolved after clean updating to 7-27 (didn't try to dirty flash this time). My touchpad is working better than ever, thanks to the dev.
[TouchPad Development] ZeroZorro:
7/27 works great ( I mean GREAT) here...battery/charging issue I had and posted about magically disappeared also!

I do have to reconnect to WIFI after sleep, but that's not a biggie for me right now! Well done [MENTION=3716175]flintman[/MENTION] !
[TouchPad Development] nickb2b:
FYI, I was having wifi/sleep issues after dirty flashing 7/24 (first time I've experienced that since the May release actually), but a clean flash to 7/27 and that hasn't happened since. May be a fluke, but could be worth trying.

I have found other browsers work better. I now use UC Browser, which seems much faster than any of the Chrome browsers.
[TouchPad Development] muerte33:
I am interested in that UC Browser, everyone says it is very fast.

The only thing that concerns me is that it is a Chinese developed app, and they make statements like:

★Smart Downloading

Our servers speed up and stabilize downloads. In addition, if any dropped connections UC Browser continues downloading from the breakpoint.

JC...Been running my HPTP since the days of CM7 and now CM13!

Kudos on this ROM...did a fresh install with toolbox...originally nothing worked correctly, ended up doing the update thru a TWRP zip sideload, installed and wala...MM on the touchpad!

It amazes me that this workhorse of a tablet is doing what it does. I even have multi window running! Matter of fact, i had a 4 window screen rocking!

Watching a movie, looking thru settings, web browser open and a photo app,...again WOW. Great stuff.

Thanks for keeping our beloved HPTP alive and kicking!

7/29 release observations

Flashed with internal updater with TWRP 3.0.2. It rebooted three times, and I had erased the recent apps list before hand. I did not repeat the Gapps flash, letting them carry forward from previous release.

It seems to run better, faster, smoother. However it did crash and reboot after about two hours of heavy use. I was trying to launch an app.

I noticed that my favorite settings in settings/tools/performance are changed after the flash. I seem to always have to reset to FIOPS, SmartMax and min cpu speed to 192. I have the switch set to restore settings on reboot. I also noticed the display idle sleep duration reset down to 2 minutes; I prefer 5 minutes.

Overall, this version is getting very near production ready. Good going, Flintman. Thanks!
[TouchPad Development] racenrich:

More 7/29 Observations

Been dirty flashing nightlies since clean installed 05/24 in May. All worked well, with only a few glitches, to which I found work-arounds. Decide to clean install 7/29 with Nano GAPPS. What a difference. Install was smooth, installed Rom Toolbox from Play, then restored my previously backed up apps. Everything works as advertised, camera excepted, and battery drain is very low.I totally agree with the above assessment -- very close to release performance.

Thanks, Flintman.

A question for my fellow touchpad users: is this the smoothest ROM you've tried so far? I'm considering flashing it on a TP going to an elderly person.
[TouchPad Development] gtallmadge:
While this is a great ROM with much potential, it is in the early alpha stage. If you cannot wait until it becomes more mature, you might think of using a different ROM that is more developed.

Touchpad Toolbox Instalation

I apologize, what I am asking is where are the files to Install marshmallow using tptb? I had seen a post of someone saying they was able to.
[TouchPad Development] gtallmadge:
On the first page of this forum thread, look for nightlies. I assume you already have TPToolBox so follow the instructions on the first page. You should note that forum is for AOSP Marshmallow,

most of us have it installed on our TP's, so your question is a little puzzling. Have you read anything here?
[TouchPad Development] lippy lipkowski:
Global Travler,

Do you have the KSM on? And i am not seeing my performance settings change after a flash. They remain set the way I left them on all 3 tablets....

---------- Post added at 03:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:10 AM ----------

Perhaps boot touchpad toolbox and run file system checks. I had 3 instances of orphaned ifiles causing trouble. 2 instances on one and 1 instance on the other. File sys checks in TPTB cleared resolved the orphaned files and cleared the issue in the system
[TouchPad Development] Xypher2000:
if you google "aosp 6.0.1 touchpad" you will get this thread and other related threads underneath, the one directly under it asking for help will tell you which files to use to get started, once you have installed it, you can update to the latest nightly through the updater on the touchpad

Well, I have the toggle thrown to the right. It seems a mite grayed out. Is that on or off? How do you have that switch set? Left or right? Maybe I've got that configured backwards...
[TouchPad Development] lippy lipkowski:
KSM switch is to the right and shows green when activated.

And definitely try the Repair Android Volumes in TPTBv42

---------- Post added at 09:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:38 PM ----------

The fact that your Performnce settings keep changing after a flash is telling me there may be some type of file system problem / corruption.

And if your KSM switch is to the right and is grayed out that seems to m to indicate that it is not turning on the KSM. Mine shows the switch round icon to be green when in the position to the right

KSM lit my 3 tablets up like a firecracker

Get CPU-z and see what it reports for your CPU speed and scaling governor settings

And run the TPTBv42 toolbox Check Android Volmes routine
[TouchPad Development] EricBlade:
Hey there . re: headphone jack problems.

Couldn't get my headphone jack up and running on 7/27 regularly either.. if it doesn't work, unplug the headphones, reboot, start the music app, start something playing, then plug in. Make sure you don't have the earphones in your ears, though, as the volume will briefly be at absolute maximum, I think.
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
Thanks for the ideas. When I say the switch is grayed out a bit, actually the button is the same color as the whole banner at the bottom-green. So I guess I have it set right. I'll have to watch this real carefully next new release. I'll report back to this matter...

I'm still noticing the display timeout to sleep is resetting to 2 minutes every now and then (without my obvious action/knowledge). I prefer 5 minutes. I'm still trying to figure the common cause.
[TouchPad Development] lippy lipkowski:
Do you have TPTBv42?

Do the Repair Android Volumes

You need to be sure the file systems are proper before you can diagnose the settings changing.
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
No joy. TPTBv42 cannot check the f2fs volumes and fails. I'll look for some app that can run fschk on all volume formats. I have cache and data in f2fs, while everything else is ext4.

---------- Post added at 03:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:49 AM ----------

I found one situation where the setting/display sleep timeout is resetting to 2 min.

Go into settings > display and change the sleep timeout to something else, like 5 min or more. Exit settings and reboot the tablet. As soon as it is restored to normal operation, go back into settings/display to verify the timeout has been changed back to 2 min. This happens every time I reboot.
[TouchPad Development] lippy lipkowski:
I am not a fan of F2FS

I suspect you might be seeing instabilities because of it

Anyone else on the forum or any of the devs know anything about F2FS being less stable than EXT?

Anyone else on the forum using the F2FS and can report experience / stability of your operation?

I am having such a good ride with this rom, but I am not using F2FS

I suspect you may be able to do the REPAIR FILE SYSTEM in TWRP on the F2FS file system.

Not totally sure where it is in TWRP but I am pretty sure it is somewhere under ADVANCED and Repair or Change file system shows and you select the filesystem that is F2FS and choose to repair it

Thanks devs! Great ROM.
[TouchPad Development] lippy lipkowski:
Actually not being able to be F-Sucked (my 20+ year nickname for fsck) in TPTBv42 is the most important reason I have come across yet to NOT use F2FS

Good to know thanks for mentioning it. Details matter for sure. I am quite familier with all this and I did not know F2FS could not be F-Sucked in TPTB!

/me scratches his chin.......somewhat expeimental filesystem on somewhat experimental ROM on hardcore freakshow tablet...................................PASS.........

TWRP 3.0.2-0 (from original post) has got fsck.f2fs built in.

Hit Wipe->Advanced Wipe->Select which partition->Repair or Change File System->Repair File System->Swipe

You can then hit Back-> Left Arrow to select another partition, or you can hit the Reboot button to restart the TouchPad.

Hope this helps.

Yep, with the hint to look in TWRP I was able to validate all volumes, except for a couple. Found nothing out of the norm. So this line of investigation is empty re my previous issues of resetting performance values after flashing a new release.

So now here's the thing i would like to try to help. I currently have 6 of these touchpad piglets cause i love them so much.

3 of them have this rom on them

PhunPhunPhun for everyone!

I can flip one of these over to f2fs or whatever the eff it's refered to as.

Unfortunately I am not familier with the procedure, but I am assuming it is the CHANGE FILE SYSTEM option in TWRP Advanced Wipe?

So then I guess you'd have to do a full backup in TWRP, wipe the cache and data partitions and then convert them to f2fs, and then restore your data partition?

Or can you convert to f2fs on a partition that has data on it already and not loose it?
[TouchPad Development] Nomad1600:
Could some 'splain the benefits of changing file system? Thanks!
[TouchPad Development] Hikikomorikruge:
F2FS is a file system designed for flash memory. It greatly improves random read/write speeds which results in a noticeable improvement in performance.

You are correct. In TWRP it is under Wipe > Advanced Wipe > Repair or Change File System > Change File System.

To my knowledge you cannot restore a nandroid backup to a different file system. Your best bet for keeping your data is to use adb backup instead.
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
It is possible to restore a TWRP backup to a different file system type. It will complain and warn you of the difference, but press ahead and it will work.

And you're right about copying the backup, especially Data, to a Nas or PC before converting the file system format. After the file system conversion, copy the data volume backup file(s) back onto the tablet and restore it with TWRP. This could be a long effort, so allow lots of time, at least several hours. Good luck!

Audio - back on the fritz...(Headphones)

Been running the 7/29 build and am running into inconsistencies with my headphone jack. Sometimes it will work just fine, and others I get an audible error noise. The noise sounds similar to the old Windows errors message alert.

I need to figure out how to capture some logcats of this to help the dev out, or figure out if my device is just finally failing in the hardware area.

More to come...Just curious if anyone else is having audio issues on the 7/29 build.

Boot is taking forever

It takes [like] 20 minutes to boot up or even longer. I think I'll just use the PAC-Man ROM because it is quite annoying.
[TouchPad Development] Nomad1600:
Well, perhaps you should. But without providing any background at all... ie. which version you flashed, which recovery used (and version), which wipes you used, whether or not you had increased the system partition in past... its quite difficult to provide any help at all.

If you were/are happy with the other ROM, great.

Boot takes forever fixed

I was using the latest build with tptoolbox with twrp 2.8 on a complete blank tablet [I did a full wipe]. I installed the PAC-Man ROM without gapps then I flashed GApps but it did not boot after install GApps. [I let it set for 2 hours]. So I installed the latest version again of this ROM with out GApps this time and then the boot time went back to normal. :D
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
After flashing the latest release today, I found the performance settings restored exactly as they were configured before the flash. [emoji7]

However, the display sleep timeout DID reset back to 2 minutes. I prefer 5 minute idle sleep timeout and that was not restored after any reboot. Is this expected in the design?

I don't know what was changed in this release, but it is running smooth. Good going, Flintman! Thanks.
[TouchPad Development] Razor512:
When you update, did you have any luck with the built in updater that does the download, and takes you to TWRP to finish?

I tried it a few times, and never had any success. after flashing and clearing the cache, the device just becomes unstable (random reboots).

Not sure if it makes any difference, but I am also using F2FS.
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
Yes, I use f2fs on the cache and data volumes. And yes, I always use the updater to download, reboot to TWRP, flush the necessary volumes, backup the three main volumes, flash the new release image and reboot into the new OS. I've used this for many months without fail or trouble. I've found after the first boot of the new release that it takes 15-30 minutes to settle down. So I just don't do anything during that period and let it rest.
[TouchPad Development] Nomad1600:
Running 7/27, which was clean flashed. Was having internet issues, and my ISP (Consolidated Comms) suggested swapping out my router (Netgear 6300). Did the swap, and ever since my TouchPad doesn't automatically reconnect to wifi after it goes to sleep. I believe this was a past prob and not the fault of the TP in this case (was working perfectly). Searched back and found suggestions that I have tried (rebooting router, changing Advances Settings to keep wifi on always while asleep (also tried "never"); and even tried developer options . "use legacy DHCP client" instead of new Android client. Still disconnects when asleep (though always manually reconnects).

Any other possible suggestions with TouchPad or with the router? I am still having wifi speeds issues so I will be calling Consolidated on Monday (and may end up buying my own router, which may result in additional changes with the TP).

UPDATE: I may have solved it. I went back into Developer Options, clicked off "Use legacy DHCP client" (so it went back to Android client) and rebooted the TouchPad. Seems to be reconnecting now... I will let it sit a few hours and see if it continues to reconnect.

8-11 build dropping wifi

I had to back off to the 8-9 build because it kept dropping wifi.

It is fine on this build.
[TouchPad Development] Nomad1600:
I went from 8/3 (I think) to 8/11. With the older version I started having wifi drops so I decided I would try updating. I had a one or two wifi drops, but its been OK the last few hours. I will let it sit a few hours and check again a few more times. I went through the updater, wiping only dalvic and cache. Did you do a full wipe?
[TouchPad Development] muerte33:
I did a dirty flash, just wiping the 2 caches only.

But I did that when returning to 8/9 so it must be something else.

It is working fine now for me, so I am going to leave it alone until another build comes out.

I would have liked to have the security updates for August though.
