Hi

I installed the build 05/13/2016 on my touchpad. Everything working great except hd videos. On mine they are green. Most pixels are green also you can stIll see that the video is playing smooth if the pixels were not green. Vlc does the same things with the same hd files. I figured it was probably a bug in the build since you mentionned some issue playing hd videos.

Screen is blinking in mxplayer until you quit the application. Sd videos play fine but you stop playing them the lower part of the screen blink a little bit. Still usable though.

Great work. Thanks so much! I was using android 2.x until yesterday. It s like I bought a new tablet!

In the latest Wi-Fi build (5-15) "Ok Google" works, thanks so much. You have turned our Touchpad into a Timex watch, "it takes a licking but keeps on ticking"!!! :o
[TouchPad Development] sakdroid:
Thanks it Worked for flashing Recovery...

But When i try to Flash ROM it errors.

Refer attachments.

What am i missing?

SO... I updated to the 5/14 tp4g build, and now after rebooting about 6 times, I've finally made a data connection with an AT&T SIM card. And the StraightTalk SIM works as well (because Straight Talk uses AT&T if you choose) :) So, ATT tells me I have to go to att.com/goactivatedata from another device to actually enable the SIM.. which I did.. and it went through all the questions, then when it went to take my money, it threw the session out. lol. AT&T is as reliable as normal, I see. :D

Anyway, finally have data working. Now to actually get a SIM that works, has service, and isn't stolen from another device that needs it's SIM.

Has anyone tried to run the Hoopla app, a public library associate service to loan movies/audiobooks/comics/etc? It seems to run and perform routine functions, but the movies do not play. It results in only displaying a rotating circle for infinity, as far as I can tell. Haven't tried borrowing and playing an audio book yet.

Update: advice from Hoopla support team 5/16/2016

Thank you for providing feedback on the issue you are experiencing. At this time, we are aware that there are minor glitches occurring with video that is played on Android devices that are running version 6.0 of the operating system.* Our technical team is working to resolve this issue, and we encourage you to check back frequently.* In the interim, please enjoy the music, audiobooks, comics, and ebooks offered on hoopla Digital!

Somewhere or other, I picked up a really high end "Armor" for one of my TouchPads, it was a screen protector, as well as back side coverage, and although i never tested it with any major hits or anything, it seemed like it would've taken a bullet. Though my original TouchPad is still in mostly great shape after putting many thousands of miles of air travel on it, and years of usage. It has cracks at the speakers. The one I most recently pulled out, is about 2 months old, and already has cracks at the speakers despite having never travelled with me. :( The backs are a lot less durable than the screens, it would seem.

Any USB device has to be powered somehow.
[TouchPad Development] googlephone:
I miss the ability to view current memory usage, whiLe in marshmallow we can only view average or maximum memory usage in 3, 6, 12, 24 hours.
[TouchPad Development] Moody66:
Dunno why Google makes some changes. Plenty of apps that will do it though.
[TouchPad Development] racenrich:
ok, a few days into this rom and outside of the rotation issue (which corrects itself on reboot), all seems to working quite well.

Kudos to flintman and the success of porting 6.0 on our beloved HPTP!
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
been working rotation issue and its hard to pinpoint but ive been using it for a while without issue yet. (i say yet because once i hit enter it will stop 8). but in the meantime i have used this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.crape.rotationcontrol&hl=en and it adds a menu to your pulldown and you can set the orientation manually. It worked when auto rotate didn't. just something so you don't have to reboot every time it stops.
[TouchPad Development] firepower9966:
wish google would have their auto rotate button do this: auto>portrait>landscape.
[TouchPad Development] Trainer_H:
i have problems to login into my Netflix. It try to connect but nothing happen.

GREAT ROM
[TouchPad Development] gtallmadge:
I am also running this ROM and have no problems with Netflix including using chromecast with it. Try reinstall of Netflix and clearing the cache.

This is an amazing ROM and I find it hard to believe my TP is the first of the numerous Android devices I have to get Marshmallow. Great work Flintman!
[TouchPad Development] drpaul:
Hey guys, any recommended Gapps I should use for this ROM? The link in OP doesn't work..I tried a different one that was linked maybe a few pages back in this thread but google keyboard force closes, so I can't get past the setup process.
[TouchPad Development] Terriertheone:
First of all thanks flintman for the amazing job, it's unbelievable that we get marshmallow on the tp...

And now i want to test it but the link for the gapps in the op is broken, i tried several gapps for marshmallow but without success :(

Can someone upload them again? :)
[TouchPad Development] huladaddy:
The gapps in the OP was linked to a specific version supplied for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 by developer Deltadroid on androidfilehost.com, but he has since provided newer versions. Use the latest "gapps-600-base-xxxxxxxx" from the following link:

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=11222

The current version as I write this is "gapps-600-base-20151114-1-signed.zip" at https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982086995422

I haven't tried that version, but gapps-600-base-20151112-1-signed.zip worked for me.
[TouchPad Development] drpaul:
This one works! Getting set up now. Thanks!
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
Thanks for this I'll update the link.
[TouchPad Development] drpaul:
Just flashed the ROM. Haven't done much with it just yet, but I'm amazed at how well its running so far! Great work [MENTION=3716175]flintman[/MENTION]. Updated my signature too :)
[TouchPad Development] Trainer_H:
After a reboot it works.
[TouchPad Development] ByMinotti:
I am trying to install this with TPToolbox-2015-01-08-v42. I keep getting an unrecognized/unsupported error for zip file FLINTMAN-TWRP-touch-data_media-SELINUX-f2fs-2.8.4.0-02-11-2015-1.zip Any suggestions on how to fix that? Thanks
[TouchPad Development] gtallmadge:
Not sure why you are having the issue. I used Flintman's 2.8.30-12-23-14 TWRP version and had no problem.
[TouchPad Development] drpaul:
I used the FLINTMAN TWRP 12-23-14 zip and I also got an error the first time I tried to flash it with TPToolbox. I tried a second time and for whatever reason it worked. Maybe just try again or use the 12-23-14 twrp zip?
[TouchPad Development] Trainer_H:
i have a question.

Isn't the double tap aktive, still flintman change something in the kernel?

Does anyone else have the problem that sometimes my TP didn't register any touch input and after i push the power button an start it again it works?
[TouchPad Development] Bisiburger:
Yes since Lollipop this problem is alive for me, but much less in MM.
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
The cracks/breakage around the speakers is a long noted issue with these cases. I just ignore it. It has no impact on the device operation.
[TouchPad Development] EricBlade:
The first one I ever saw it happen to, my lady picked up her tablet off the touchstone, and the bottom of the tablet just fell apart. That was back when HP still had some, and she called up, reported the cracks, they had a new one at our house the very next morning.

I was sad because my original one had made it over 4 years before the cracks started.. so I think I got lucky there. :D
[TouchPad Development] Nomad1600:
Mine has cracks No worries, so do I?
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Cracks developing around the speakers and the USB port has been an issue virtually since the touchpad was first sold. While they were under warranty, you could send it back and HP would put a new case on it. Try putting a little Super Glue on the cracks to keep them from growing any bigger than they already are.

[TouchPad Development] BGrosse:
Flintman,

thanks again for your newest builds for WiFi and 4G! Really awesome work and many improvements!

Did you changed something in the 4G build for the mobile data connection? As far as I found (testing approx. 24 hours now) the data connection is stable and the SIM card is detected countinously (the older build lost either the whole SIM card or won't connect to the service). This seems to be gone and the connection is stable so far.

The other thing is: WiFi connection is not "always on" - even in standby mode, although in the WiFi settings it is enabled as "always on" . Also it does not automatically reconnect every time (but sometimes) when the connection is lost during standby. Instead the mobile connection is used, but data connection isn't switched back to WiFi when I wake it from standby. Can you have a look into this? Would be nice to switch WiFi automatically on and connect to the last used network even 4G mode would still be possible (WiFi connection should have the higher priority if available).

Also good: the count of sporadic reboots is lowered significantly. As the TP resides next to me, I only had 2 reboots the last 24 hours. Before I had 2 reboots every hour!

I am really glad you work again on the 4G Touchpads! Your work is really highly appreciated! Keep the good thing going and let me know if I can be of any assistance. :)
[TouchPad Development] Shadow aok:
I don't have any sound with the 5/13 build while playing a video (vlc, facebook, youtube ...).

It's better with 5/15, i now have sound (but it's hard to make subtitles work, i may be an issue on vlc side).

Something is strange with wifi, there is no autoconnect post boot (wifi is already enabled).

But if i go into the wifi menu and list the wifi network, then it auto connects to my network.

It's like there's no wifi network scan post boot.

[MENTION=3716175]flintman[/MENTION], where we can we find jcsullins changes?

EDIT: Found it:

https://github.com/Evervolv/android_device_hp_tenderloin-common/tree/mm-6.0/audio

Looks like you were modifying the files jcsullins committed in March.
[TouchPad Development] jaltman:
These last couple builds have been great. First time in a long time I have not suffered from periodic lockups and reboots. Thanks.
[TouchPad Development] chris5s:
Ive been experiencing some graphical glitches.

The last one happened this morning as I opened up Yahoo Mail app to read an email, the screen split in half vertically and the right panel stared flashing between a black panel and the correct view of the email (if that makes sense?).

It also happened when i hit the small sqaure bottom right to open up recent apps. Screenshot attached and logs (first log was general logcat right after email mishap, 2nd and 3rd logs are gen logcat and last kmsg from time of screenshot)

I'm running nightly version 20160514.215616 test-keys with gapps-601-base-20160503-1-signed.zip.

Cleaned system, data, dalvik and cache before installing over JCSullins kitkat snapshot rom.

I've been running this for maybe 24 hours, haven't had this behaviour before, gonna restart and see if it persists. If there's any other useful logs/info you need that might help, let me know.

Peace.

Oh, I'm also experincing the issue where the screen becomes unresponsive until you turn it off and back on again i.e.hit power button to turn off the screen (not power off the tablet) then hit power button again to turn the screen back on. Then touch works again.
[TouchPad Development] ZeroZorro:
Just installed 05/15 build and green screen while playing HD-video seems fixed. Need some more testing of course but so far so good! #great! Thanks [MENTION=3716175]flintman[/MENTION]
[TouchPad Development] muerte33:
Thanks Flintman

I just installed this Evervolv version coming off a JCsullins KitKat using these instructions:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66178263&postcount=987

Worked like a charm.

There are some video artifacts from time to time (like losing the background), but I am glad the Bluetooth works better than earlier versions I tried.

I went ahead and updated TWRP to the 3.0.2 version using TWRP 2.7.1.0 (kind of scared me, but it worked).

Thanks for all your hard work and the rest of the community!
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
Really glad you had a good experience in the upgrade process. Can you attach a catlog of the period around the background disappearing? Are you using any special or particular launcher or background display app? I've seen this effect once or twice myself, but it soon sorted itself out without me doing anything.
[TouchPad Development] muerte33:
It happens sometimes when you launch an app like Ookla Speedtest that only runs in portrait mode (and don't flip the touchpad to portrait).

When you get out sometimes half the bottom of the background is gone, sometimes it is all gone.

If you flip the touchpad to portrait then back to landscape the background comes back.

I have NOT installed any launcher (not even the Google one).

The background is all stock (as Evervolv installed it).

I am running the Flintman 20160515.064735 build.

Thanks!

builds

Excellent job on the build, I installed 5-15 jc sullins test build.. Having issues with flickering screen, wifi disconnects and reconnects and video play back from files .mov using vlc etc... the program freezes and crashes.
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
Still need to test some more but while trying to fix this HD video issue i had someone fixed the large battery drain usually around -28mA. I just turned on my touchpad from a long deep sleep a few hours and was running -4mA. I need to test this out on my other touchpad to make sure i got it but that is good news. This damn HD video issue is really starting to bother me though i want it fixed.

I have searched and chased down this issue when ever HD content is played on some devices you won't notice an issue and on some you notice scramble screen and or green screen but either way if it works for you or it doesn't this error below spams the logs. This is what im chasing down for the HD video issue if anyone has any insight or has seen this error before shoot me a message.

Ill keep at it and maybe fix a few more things while trying to solve this issue but we are getting down to a minor handful of issues.

Decided to dust off my touchpad and clean flashed the 5/15 build and its running like a champ so far. Amazing work, thank you so much [MENTION=3716175]flintman[/MENTION]!
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Getting a -4mA drain with a 3.4 kernel while the TP is asleep. That's awesome. I've never seen a 3.0 kernel do any better than a -6mA.

[TouchPad Development] jimjack:
Hi Flintman,

yesterday I've made some tests on my new installed TP 32GB. It comes from WebOS.

I've installed the 05/15 test version (TWRP 3.0.2 with F2FS support).

There are video problems with MXplayer (1.8.3 / 1.8.0 custom codec). SD material is ok with SW decoder and(!) HW+ decoder.

HD material is not okay. With SW decoder the playback lacks and with HW+ decoder there are green flashes but the video runs ok with no flickerings...

After that on the home screen there are flashes and flickerings but I don't need to restart the TP.

Other video material like mediatheques are ok with SD

and

HD material. The mediatheques uses their own internal player.

On my other TP (16GB) I've had some problems with Wifi coming from deep sleep. I've must switch off/switch on the Wifi to reconnect.

A question: What is the difference to the 01/04 test version (with good HD playback)?

Regards,

jimjack
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
released 5-19 build
[TouchPad Development] muerte33:
I am installing it now!

Thanks for working on this!
[TouchPad Development] Nomad1600:
I also flashed this (dirty, using updater along with the backup option for the first time). No issues yet, but since I believe extending battery life was the focus of the the update I will let it sit most of the day, go through a charge cycle or two before reporting back. Thanks Flintman!
[TouchPad Development] BGrosse:
Flintman,

thanks again for this new test build! Installing now and will keep an eye on it over the weekend...

Can you release also a build with these updates for the 4G? Want to test, if the stability and switchover from 4G to Wifi and the random reboots are also gone now on this model with the newest release with minimum power consumption...

Thanks!
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
This should be on Monday for the 4g model. Going away this weekend and still need to test out.
[TouchPad Development] BGrosse:
Thank you soo much! You are simply the best! :cool:
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
Quick question: when we flash Open Gapps with TWRP or other tool, the modules are tucked away in the /system volume, right? Then subsequent updates from the Google play store refresh only in the user data volume, right? So the hard question is this: when we flash a new OS using TWRP or other via the embedded system updater, it wipes the /system volume just before flashing the new OS without applying the Open Gapps modules, but when the system come up, runs the initial setup, it finds we previously had the couple handfuls of Gapps modules and loads them. Just where do they go? Back into /system directories or all into the user data volume? How can I verify/confirm this? Does it even matter for anything except which storage space is depleted? Speed? Caching? Other matter? I've not read any explanation of the dirty flashing process in these two scenarios. Thanks for clarifying!

The new 5/19 test release was dirty flashed here in about 30 minutes and the sleep mode battery drain is less than before. Thanks, Flintman!
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
So when you initally install with gapps the gapps get installed in the system partition. That is why i use nano gapps the bare basics needed. You can install all the other google apps via playstore and those get stored in data partition.

Now when you dirty flash/ upgrade the install script backs up the gapps ( the more gapps in system the longer this process takes) then updates the files and then restors gapps.

Data never gets touched on dirty flash/ upgrades.

I hope that clears that up for you.
[TouchPad Development] Nomad1600:
Flintman... taking peeks at the tablet, and yes, the new release is barely sipping battery... getting -4mA. Curious, are you still changing performance settings or leaving stock. Up until the past few updates i was making these changes (I/O scheduler to fiops; governor to smartmax) but I've left them stock the last few.
[TouchPad Development] Trainer_H:
Awsome. I got -3mA without fresh installation. Thank you

[TouchPad Development] rxalex:
Battery better

The battery looks like it lasts longer good job! But after a while the wallpaper turns to black screen and audio intermittantly works until restart. Flint definitely came a long way aside from some of these glitches
[TouchPad Development] lippy lipkowski:
Wow what a nice ROM. Thanks!

Wow NICE battery drain while sleeping. Seeing 3 and 4 ma. EXCEPTIONAL! ESPECIALLY for a 3.4 Kernel. I proposed in this thread while it was still Android 5 about JC and Flintman getting together on dev efforts would yield a fabulous ROM. Thanks guys. Very much appreciated. I found and ordered 2 new in the box unopened 32 Gig Wifi Touchpads on the strength of this ROM. Now I own 6 HEH. I suggest you all get on e-bay as I see the supply of the Touchpads is starting to dwindle. I was lucky to find 2 new unopened ones. FABULOUS!

Love these tablets. They are such nice rugged devices.

Question: Do the devs know at what clock speed this starts to get snaky? Does it vary depending on the fact that each tablet is an individual and unique? Because I normally run most of them at the full bore 1782 mhz if the rom allows it and really do not see many problems from it, but have you determined if that is a good move on this rom yet?

It seems fast enough to start possibly revealing the instability that might be present in clocking over 1528 Mhz. I do suspect HP clocked the chip down to 1200 for battery life but perhaps there was a known stability issue at the chip rated speed of 1528 Mhz??

Anyone got a decent clue on any of that? I am going to start installing it on the various tablets and see if things differ at all. But Kudos on what seem to be sizing up as a super nice rom. Thanks so much guys and please post something that shows me where to donate to Flintman. I know I have JC's e-mail for donation in my gheypal (Heh) account but I do not see Flintman's

So thanks again and THE REST OF YOU PEOPLE!!! PLEASE DONATE TO THESE FINE GENTS AND MAKE THEIR EFFORTS WORTH THEIR WHILE!

Hello, it would be nice to ha a new installation procedure.

I'm new with flashing my touchpad. I dowloaded the files in the first post (ROM, Recovery and Gapps). Than I used Toolbox to do the installation, but I always get an unsupported zip file error !

First, it was with the recovery zip file, I then took the first one (the older), and it works. But I never find a working gapps.

It would be nice to add a HowTo section in the first post, to explain how to perform a total installation, if ToolBox is not compatible anymore with newer versions...

Thank you
[TouchPad Development] games4646:
Use the Official Slim GApps. It should work.
