Hi, it's not completing boot. I clean installed it three times. I'm going to going to try again later later on and I will post results.. Thanks for the for the reply..
[TouchPad Development] rebel1699:
Tzumi bt ear buds would also not connect, and bt cycling off/on. Dirty flash from 9-11 to 9-17. Backing up apps now and clean flashing for test. Report back in 20 minutes.

After clean flash to 9-17, symptoms are the same. No connection and bt cycling during attempt to connect. It is now also causing wifi issues while trying to connect. Wifi will be full, then dip to no bars, then drop. Reconnects shortly, but persists in that cycle while trying to connect a bt device.

Success!

I went and used Flashifly in google play it booted right up. only issue so far is my fav UC Web browser wont work, I chose allow unknown sourct used and it still fails. its not that important, I just never used chominum browser I am gonna try tptb and check partition sizes and increase system if needed.. I see in the toolbox how to upload a bug report. if anyone needs it or has any advice Im open I have not the faintest Idea what Im doing. but you guys are easy to follow and it always works.. thanks to ALL!!

Flintman, thanks for integrating the updater back into settings! When will you begin posting new releases thru testing or nightly channels? I don't want to miss anything. ?

WiFi was stable for 1 hour or so after my TP was online with the new 17/09 build. Then went offline to do some tasks outside of Android and bootet back into Android. Again, 2 hours of stable WiFi signal. Then WiFi again gets instable. See picture below:

How to extract a dmesg and logcat for uploading here? :confused:
[TouchPad Development] DonCatoli:
I just started using the 6.01 build which is now closed. (I am currently running Aug 22) and I am hoping the following bugs I have with them can be addressed.

1) Wifi does not auto-connect to saved access points.

2) Wifi disconnects when the screen powers off to save power (it ignores the always keep wifi on setting), so when I use the TP I have to always turn wifi off and back on again then I select which access point to connect to... if I don't disable the wifi first it will try to connect to the AP but never complete the process.

3) The integrated updater crashes when I select a build then click the download icon.

(both clean and dirty installs make no difference for me for these issues)

Thank you for keeping this device alive for so long!!!

Mic is not working here. I tried several voice recorder apps and none of them were working.
[TouchPad Development] middle_road:
WiFi - Three out of four disconnected this morning, BUT we had a power outage during the wee hours of the morning.

On the fourth (the BlueSceener), couldn't tell, looks like it finally packed it in. BSoD'ing frequently now.

I put it out of it's misery around lunchtime and swapped out the LCD panel to another one. Might go back and try to check out the system board,

then again might not. I've got a bunch of spare parts now, but none are system boards.

One of my other ones running KK is overheating on the Touchstone. I A6'd it, but what I might try now is to upgrade it to Nougat

and then see if it still gets warm...

Perhaps tonight I can line them up and test the mics.
[MENTION=2724524]googlephone[/MENTION] : could you post info on a couple of the recorder apps that you used? Thx.

[TouchPad Development] googlephone:
Recordr is my favorite voice recorder. For other apps, I just searched "voice recorder" in play store and tried few but uninstalled because mic is not working.

I also used system info app to look for the mic but there is no mic listed in the system info app.

OK, I have a trap set for the WiFi gremlin.

Three Tablets freshly flashed with v09.17, and one with the latest OpenGApps-Mini flashed also.

We'll see what happens come morning. -- should I maybe put out a plate of cookies or brownies also?

Time to be off to bed. I just swiped on the wrong option in TWRP on a fourth tablet and wiped it...

I do wish that they would redo the Wipe portion of the menu, clean it up a bit perhaps.

This is what happens last night - at last evening had WiFi for an hour after getting to sleep, then drops connection sporadically, having no connection this morning when I woke it up. At this time it also does not want to reconnect automatically. Reconnecting manually was successful immediately.

Logcat for WiFi dropping

HA! Got it!

Wanted to use the app "Logcat Extreme" to get the logs for the WiFi drops, because the log grabber in the Toolbox does not work (at least for me). While having a look into it, WiFi drops and does not reconnect.

[MENTION=3716175]flintman[/MENTION]: Please have a look at the attached logfile starting at around 09-18 10:53:39.535: this should reflect the disconnection issue. Does this help?

Please let me know if you need further infos.

Thanks for your hard work on this! :highfive:

They are programmed via java based web browser configured controller software and once the mesh nodes are programmed they no longer need the controller software to operate and will reboot as previously configured by power cycling if a node goes south and needs a reboot

Don't be afraid! You can't beat 200 for 3 of the nicest radios on the market

You mean the logcat app? Here it is: click

The dmesg can be viewed on device, but cannot be saved. I used a terminal instead (built in in the 3c Toolbox app I also use) and let it write down with the command "dmesg > /storage/emulated/0/dmesg.txt"

Downloading the 09/18 test ROM now. Will report back soon... Thanks [MENTION=3716175]flintman[/MENTION]! :fingers-crossed:
[TouchPad Development] sdemun:
My report on 9/17 & 9/18 builds and BT. Both builds as a clean install do not allow me to pair any BT devices. When I try BT turns off then back on but no success in pairing.

In 9/11 I can pair and properly use two BT headsets made by Plantronkcs. But cannot pair my blunote BT speaker as BT will turn off and back on when I try.

I have also tried both 9/17 & 9/18 as a dirty flash over top of 9/11. In both cases my BT headsets still are paired and will connect but sound comes through onboard speakers like in 9/6 build. Also still unable to pair blunote speaker.

So... I have gone back to a clean install of 9/11 and will wait for the next build.

Sorry I have nothing to report on the 9/17 & 9/18 wifi issues. But I cam say that I have not had any wifi reliability/stability issues with any of the 7.0 builds.
[TouchPad Development] BGrosse:
Flintman has not mentioned that he had changed something for bluetooth. So no wonder why bluetooth still does not work fine.

[MENTION=3716175]flintman[/MENTION]: Dirty flashed 09/18 over 09/17, cleared cache and dalvik, bootet up straight to the desktop and sits fine since that. ATM no drops in WiFi connection (running about 2 hours now with and without charger). I would tentatively say 09/18 is an improvement over all the former builds - concerning WiFi.

But let me check this overnight now. Will report back tomorrow morning. Thanks again and again flintman for your great work! :)
[TouchPad Development] middle_road:
Thanks, I'm going to try that one also. I was wondering about the WiFi app you're using that you posted screen shots of (Such as in #292) Verlau.....

I did a quick look through the play store but there are too many... hehe.

3PM (EDT) Update: All three still connected. No dis-connects (knock-on-wood).

Attempting to flash a fourth - time permitting.

_Dan
[TouchPad Development] BGrosse:
Oh thaaat.... That is just in the Settings -> Battery then touch on the graphics of the battery level. When on battery (not charger) it shows you the battery level, the estimated lifetime until battery reaches 0% and some to the battery level corresponding graphs, which shows the "on-times" of a mobile data connection, the WiFi connection, the active time of TP and when the screen was active.

It's all built-in! No app needed for this... ;)

BlueTooth:

On tablet without GApps installed - yet.

No luck pairing with my Zagg Keybd. same problem as above, disconnects. I tried to grab a logcat via Terminal right after it disconnected but failed.

I used the command logcat -s -v time > BT_FName_01.log but there wasn't much in it.

I'll go do some searching, but if someone wouldn't mind posting the correct syntax, I'd appreciate it.

Going to try on another here in a bit.

[TouchPad Development] sdemun:
I understand that Flintman did not say BT was fixed. I am mainly reporting what I find as Flintman originally asked all of us to with this Alpha. ?
[TouchPad Development] BGrosse:
No No No... you're not a dummy. At least you try to get a logcat from the command line - thats more than I did. I used an app instead! :p

Try "logcat -d -f /storage/emulated/0/logcat.txt"...

Does catching the logs from within the Evervolv Toolbox (Settings -> Toolbox -> Bug report) work for you? At mine, I can select one or all logs to fetch, tap on fetch and it's reporting it started the fetching, but never comes back with anything. The buttons are greyed out and a generated log URL is never supplied... :eek:
[TouchPad Development] Globaltraveler5565:
I used an app called SYSLOG to extract all the pertinent logs in one zip file suitable for uploading to the forum (as an attachment or in a URL). You can choose where to store the files as an interim stop, but you have to manually manage/delete these files after uploading or they build up and consume the storage space.

WiFi Woes --- Check this theory out:

WiFi Woes v09.17 --- Check this theory out:

I had to re-route some wires down in the basement this evening. Had the cable modem disconnected for about a half an hour.

After I powered it up and I got back upstairs I checked the three TP's, on all three the WiFi was off.

So I'm thinking that if the modem/router drops for a bit, the Wifi on the TPs turns off.

Worth a try...?

_Dan

The command that I ran did fine, there wasn't anything pertinent in it is all. (logcat -s -v time > BT_FName_01.log)

The 'Bug Report' hangs on me also.

I'll get that and give it a try. Virtual keybd in Terminal is a PiTA.

Currently I cannot upload anything to this forum. There is something messed up with permissions or something on the Admin end.

Other forums that I visit that run the same software, I have no problem uploading.

In case anyone is curious, the culprit in the logs can be traced to these lines:

Which is a bit confusing for me, because it happens to me with a non-encrypted connection.

Edit: After further research, it appears this issue is widespread across many Nougat (and some Marshmallow) devices, and may have to do with the wifi driver itself being unable to rekey the connection.
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
You still get this with the newest build ??
[TouchPad Development] BGrosse:
Yes, that's true - I had that since I run the MM and N builds from Evervolv. On MM the disconnect issue remains until today.

But at least for the Nougat build [MENTION=3716175]flintman[/MENTION] got a working combination of WiFi and/or WPA supplicant drivers/modules/libs, so I think the 09/18 build should work for everyone now - concerning the WiFi. :) Thanks [MENTION=3716175]flintman[/MENTION]!

[MENTION=3716175]flintman[/MENTION]: would you be so kind to generate a last/final release for the MM ROM with this new WiFi drivers/modules/libs combination also (WiFi and 4G model)? I am about to give 2 TPs for my niece and nephew (for the next birthday of the twins), but the Nougat ROM isn't as mature as the MM actual. And a always working WiFi is a must have for the parents (they are not freaks :cool:). Would you....? :angel:

BTW additional feedback: WiFi is stable now for more then 24 hours. I really think, you got it [MENTION=3716175]flintman[/MENTION]! Thanks! Really a great job! :angel:
[TouchPad Development] AlwaysLucky:
That is from [MENTION=2155402]BGrosse[/MENTION] catlogs. I have yet to catch my own issue in a catlog. The changes you committed on github do look promising, but I just wanted to catch my issue to see if it is the same issue as BGrosse's and others before trying out the changes you made. :fingers-crossed:
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
I wish i could say sure but all i did was add in caf and cm commits to wpa_supplicant which mm already has. So in mm i had switched to an external module for wifi and fixed that issue for alot of people in the beginning of mm. This version i decided to keep it in kernel which after bring up wpa it seemed to fix the issue. Issues that i experience are easy to fix i can debug the device like no other. If i dont experience i relay on information which makes it alot harder to pin down. I dont know why someone has the issue and others dont. It makes me think it could be a specific type of router or type of encrytion maybe length of encrytion. Unsure never been able to pin down.

Ill see about running an mm build with builtin module for wifi and see if that fixes issues for u. Give me some time as i need to setup my pc for MM build.
[TouchPad Development] middle_road:
Wi-Fi

Of the three running overnight, two were still connected this morning, the third wasn't.

Of interest is that the Third was frozen... I'm having some odd problems with this one that I haven't yet pinned down.

Might just scorch earth it and try again.

None of the three were on chargers.

Tried the Zagg keybd again late last night. I think I managed to capture proper LogCat info.

[MENTION=3716175]flintman[/MENTION] , things just got much worse for me. My Wifi connection now drops TCP connections constantly, and the internet bandwidth is around a quarter of what it normally is. Could removing the library reference have caused this??

On a positive note, the connection itself to the router hasn't disconnected yet! :p

[TouchPad Development] TheEditor:
I have two 32gb Touchpads, both have been prepared with HP Toolkit, no WebOS on either. Both has evervolv 6 installed on them. I am thinking of trying this 7.x Alpha on one of them. Is it stable enough, even in Alpha to be a daily driver of sorts?
[TouchPad Development] middle_road:
Ah, come on - jump in, the water is fine. :)

One of mine is a pseudo daily driver right now - I just have not finished going all the way setting it up and configuring it.

I keep trying different things and trying to help out with the Wifi and the BT issues.

I'll say this, the one that I have that was on both versions of LP has not crashed like it did before. Now granted I haven't

completely configured it but my fingers are crossed.

It is very snappy and quick, and boot up is swift. Take one of yours and try it. Read through the posts here and it is very painless.

_Dan
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Kind of a loaded question there Editor. If you have read this thread you would see that different users are having different experiences with Evervolv's Android 7 Alpha. (you need to remember what an Alpha build is, extremely new and prone to be unstable, unreliable and full of bugs. It is subject to dramatic changes without notice.) Nice thing about the TouchPad, you can make a Nandroid backup with recovery and if things don't work out like you want, restore the recovery and you are right back where you were. Thing for you to do is install the Rom and see how it works for you. You should be prepared to have problems no matter what one person reports as stable and ready to go and another reports highly unstable and waste of time. This version of Evervolv has been available for less than a month. Maybe you should wait a while until reports of consistent good performance before trying it or at least until Flintman declares it is in beta testing. Most importantly, you need to read this thread thoroughly, particularly the OP and first few pages and then the last ten or fifteen pages. If you don't fully and I mean fully understand what you are doing, you probably will brick your TouchPad. J. C. Sullins TouchPad Toolbox made removing WebOS and installing Android much easier, but the last few versions have even stretched it's capabilities to the limit. It needs to be updated and no one knows if Sullins plans to so.

Installed the 18th build and left the screen sleep for an hour+ and wifi was still connected when I woke up the display, will let you know if it remains connected over night.

thank you
[TouchPad Development] BGrosse:
Aahhh... I see. Hmmm - difficult. I fully understand you. But it will take until next year (I think) when the Nougat ROM will be a such mature ROM like the MM is today. So if you can invest some time in building a MM ROM with a new WiFi module, I'm sure there are some others beside me which will be very glad about it. :)

I agree, that this behaviour may have something to do with a specific combination of TP and access point. With 09/17 I also have no problems connecting to my HTC Sensation in hotspot mode. Both use WPA2 as encryption, but different security keys. The mobile phone key is simple (just text with 10 characters or so) while the routers key is extremely strong (dozens of digits, letters, capital letters, numbers and many special characters). But on former CM ROMs (CM7 to CM12.1) I used, WiFi drops never happened on the TPs with this router. Maybe you could have a look into the CM sources and add some "things" from there?

Please let me know if I can be of any assistance in tracking this down. I have enough TPs to test (WiFi & 4G)... :cool:
[TouchPad Development] Epanosian:
yes I guess, it says 3.0.2-0.
[TouchPad Development] flintman:
Yes i guess isn't a confident answer. In the first post of this thread you can download the updated recovery. Do that and install. Redownload the latest version and check md5 to ensure it isn't corrupt. Transfer over to your TP and make sure it isn't corrupt there and then isntall

testing feedback

Hi,

testing feedback from latest 9/18 build

Bluetooth:

- HP BT keyboard - works a treat

- HP Z5000 BT mouse - great

- Goji BT speaker - forces BT to turn off

- Plantronics Legend BT headset - forces BT to turn off

Wireless:

- really great. I have powerline hotspot adaptors on one SSID in my house and the only time i see any line drop is when the device reconnects to a different hotspot. This is seamless-i do nothing to make it work, just wait a few seconds after moving rooms.

Thanks for the quality of this build - this is now a really performant stable version - best yet....
