Let's put this to rest, shall we?

As many have not been privy to the discussions between Sr. Mods and the OP nor the final ruling - this will stay where it is. No ongoing development was going to happen, and seeing as it was requested by the OP to stay open, it was moved to a place for that to happen which is General - since it's not in development.

All other threads that might be "retired" in Development will remain as they were Closed and no further discussion and/or support was going to happen or needed. That is the policy. The OP wanted this open - so it was moved to a place where non-development discussion could happen.

Let's put this to rest, shall we?

I had installed TNT Lite a couple of weeks ago and it was working pretty good. But today my tablet has gone into a bad state. Every app that I run results in FC. Even the ADW launcher EX that I had selected default is crashing. It then gives me the options: ADW Laucher, ADW Launcher EX, and the regular Launcher. The plain ADW Launcher also fails, but fortunately the regular Launcher still works so I can access the apps.

But unfortunately almost every app that I am trying fails. The only one that doesn't fail is the Web browser. The Settings starts and I can access Applications menu but once I choose say System Applications, after that if I try to choose some other option such as Installed Application, it crashes as well.

Last night however when I started the tablet the battery was probably down and while it was powering it up, it turned off and then restarted by itself and then turned off, without reaching the lock screen. I don't know if it has something to do with all this.

What do I do now? Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

It works excellent!! comparing to TnT stock (I'd used that for 1,5 month), TnT lite 4.4 is the thing!

Have anyone installed some additional languages or keyboards? I need russian one.

Another little stupid question - how gmail can be locked when I close the appl?

Thanks in advance!
[G Tablet General] dpav:
I installed Russian keyboards. I just needed root explorer and copied into the folder - system/app/ my app by pushing a botton "R/W".
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Languages are embedded in the framework -- with the 1.2 stock ROM, they added Spanish / French language at least.
[G Tablet General] dpav:
So, I found an app which locks another apps, so the question regarding gmail is closed too.. )

Another question, there is some trouble with Bluetooth - it doesn't receive any files and couldn’t connect to my laptop. Is there any decision on that?

Thanks.

Can I get tnt lite 5.0

Please let me have permission to the tnt lite 5.0. If anything goes wrong I have only myself to blame. PLEASE let me give it a GO.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I put the links to TwoTapsX (which is essentially the same exact ROM as TNT Lite 5) on my "Moutain Laurel" ROM archive, on Slatedroid. TwoTapsX was pulled here because of the 1.2 bootloader confusion at the time, and by the time I was ready to re-enable them I had already moved all my 1.2 ROMs out to Slatedroid.

TNT Lite 5 / TwoTapsX were the predecessors to "Mountain Laurel". The former were based of UAT stock ROM 3991, and the latter is based off stock ROM 4349. So my recommendation is to use ML, since it's still being developed.

On a related side note, the Hannspad has a TapnTap build 4789, which I'm trying to re-work into a GTAB ROM. most likely an ML update. Just grabbed this update today.

Where can I download TnT lite 5.0?

[G Tablet General] roebeet:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1035983

Look for "Mountain Laurel". It replaced TNT Lite 4/5, and TwoTapsX. TwoTapsX and TNT Lite are the exact same ROM except in name, and I have an archive link in Slatedroid for it. TNT Lite 5 / TTx are not being developed anymore, as Mountain Laurel replaced them.

ML is basically "TNT Lite 6", just has a different name.

No Account and Sync in TnT Lite 4.4.0?

I installed TnT Lite 4.4.0. Everything worked as expected. However, when I want to replace the current gmail account with a new one, I could not find the "account and synch" under "settings" menu. Can someone tell me if it exists and/or how I can fine it? Thanks.

If you have Launcher Pro.

Long Press on screen (anywhere)

Shortcuts

the file is just

<Untitled> download unsuccessful

Cannot download. the content is not supported.

I've seen a few other folks in the thread have the same problem, and it didn't look like they've found an answer. does any one know how to fix this?

I'm installing 4.4.0 with clockworkmod

I've also backed out to 3588, and installed the sugested, non clockworkmod way. still no dice.

recent problems with boot loops on old 4.1

Hello Robeet,

I have been gone for many many months because your old 4.1 rom has served me well for 8 months.... have not wanted to change. Have never had to reload for months at a time, but each reload has worked well.

A week ago, the system got unstable (I am convinced it is a google sevices or browser issue) and i reloaded everything from a september titanium backup.... within an hour problems came back and boot loops. I reformated storage, cleaded SD2, did many factory re-sets and reload of the rom... last time I did not even sign into google.. just set up email and started using browser... and as has happend all week, while using google browser, it FC and then loops.

What is going on ? Some new type of google update that finds its way into my system that is crashing it?

Thanks....

Does ML 3.1.0 support VPN

Roebeet, I apologize for posting this question here but after reading the posts on Slatedroid and looking through the XDA threads I can't find a definitive answer if the stock kernel you have on the 3.1.0 build of Mountain Laurel supports VPN.

If it doesn't can you point me in the right direction to get VPN support on this ROM? I really like it and the only two items I am having trouble with is not being able to use the VTL launcher (1.6.5 force closes like crazy) and not having VPN support (needed for watching BBC programs because it checks your IP to see if you're in the U.K.).

Thanks in advance,

Steve

Dolphin HD is best if you use Flash.

2.03 is faster, but usb storage does not work right with file changes and some apps can vanish after a reboot.

Even though 2.04 is slower, Youtube and other sites rock and are better than they were "just" with 2.0. Nice work by Roebeet. Now, if there was a way to be stable AND 2400 Quadrant scores :)
[G Tablet General] katmandu421:
Just wiped and reinstalled everything from scratch to incorporate all the updates and the calendar/contacts sync fix posted in the dev thread. FYI: I was getting android system FCs until rebooted into recovery and wiped cache again. Seems to have taken care of them.

Awesome ROM!!

I just saw this post -- so, what do we think? Adding v2 Gapps make sense on TnT Lite? I wasnt going to do a 2.0.5 anytime soon, but I guess that was a pipe dream. :)

I was really hoping you would incorperate it into a 2.05

This would be a huge benefit, and such a great feature!

[G Tablet General] Marine6680:
I was wondering when you was going to pick up on this, it looks like it is only a few apk's that we need to add that you do not currently have in your builds.

I am still running on the 2.0.2 with the new performance CPU driver that borks the camera; I have not seen any issues so far with stability. What are the common problems with it? I do not use or need the camera, so I'm only interested in the updates that fix it, if there are stability/usability issues that it fixes.

I would like to see a new version of TnT lite with working calendar and contact sync, but would prefer the performance over working camera. (unless of course there are issues as I said) So it would be great to have a way to have both options.
[G Tablet General] rickyt63:
Roebeet,

Jumped from TnT-Lite V2.02 + Tegra PP to V2.04 but camera is still borked?

Quadrant test still at ~2400. Look like I have to do increment updates.

Anyway, I love the performance and don't really care about camera much :)
[G Tablet General] ehunyadi:
I would absolutely positively love the Gapps to be part of TnT 2.0x. I have to say that I honestly don't like the new calendar. I use my GTab for work, and the calendar is a big part of that. In its current 2.04 form, it's unusable for me.

In my latest video, I tried in vain to get to a month, week, or day view. The calendar in 2.04 just doesn't work that way (for me, at least).

roebeet,

Modaco, aka Paul O'Brien, got in touch with me tonight via twitter. He is the guy who is doing some great work with the Advent Vega and discovered the 'performance pack'. He offered to help fix the camera, thing is I dont even have my tablet yet to begin working on it! It would be great if you or one of the other guys who know what they are doing could get in touch with him. The tablet would be awesome if we had all the benefits of the performance pack and the camera.

I flashed this rom and after every reboot I have to go through setup everytime along with any installed apps force closing. Is there something I can do or do I have to return it and get a new one?
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
did you wipe user data, yet? When I got my first device it was awful until I did that. Also, you might want to nvflash it as a last resort - your next device might have the same problems.

Do you happen to have an email? I am not a big Twitter person. :) Old dude. Else I will look into it - I've love to see the camera fixed.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Anyone know what file(s) are absolutely needed for this to work? Seems like there's a lot of extra stuff in here we probably don't need. And there's no Calendar / Contacts apk.

this is my guess, going on the posts -- we need the gmail.apk in v2 and the calendar.apk from TnT Lite 2.0.0. Does that sound right? I use gmail but I don't use MS Exchange, so I need some guidance here.

I thought I read last night that we needed the syncadapters from the patch.

Hope this helps as I am about to wipe and start over. FC on the settings

GoogleServicesFramework - Force Closes

Anyone seeing GoogleServicesFramework force closes on clean 2.04 (+contact / cal sync) (+market fix) (+flash) installations?

I had an install setup last night that I _really_ liked, then started seeing the FCs this morning.

I did a cache wipe, still had FCs.

I restored to the clean 2.04 (+contact / cal sync) (+market fix) (+flash), and after setting the time in the TNT settings app & rebooting, it happened again.

I'll troubleshoot more, just wanted to know if others were seeing these...
[G Tablet General] shigga:
Yes I wipe everytime. Same thing on every rom.

[G Tablet General] rushless:
The catch is the Advent does not have internal storage and that appears to be why we had problems with the 2.03 update. If Roeby can find a way to implement the pack and not cause storage conflicts that kills USB storage mode indexing and vanishing apps after a reboot...... Gtablet would become legend :) With Roeby and others propping it up, of course :)
[G Tablet General] jpothorst:
I noticed the same thing after installing Touch Calendar, except I can now see my Exchange data in this calendar. It appears that the calendar data is syncing but not being displayed in the TNT Calendar.
[G Tablet General] jacindc:
I *think* it's just the gmail.apk in v2, the calendar.apk from TNTLite 2.0 (please don't use the TNT calendar anymore!), and the GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk and GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk from v2. But I'd check to see if the other install-type files (OneTimeInitializer and SetupWizard) are different or the same from TNTLite 2 and GApps v2, just to be sure.

As I said in the other thread, I think the people who asked you to put back the TNT calendar in 2.0.x were having problems with the Exchange syncing, which should hopefully now work under this fix, since "Microsoft Exchange Sync" now appears under Contacts / Add Account, where as in plain TNTLite 2 it was just "Corporate"?

And, FYI to other folks, installing TNTLite 2.0.4 once you have the calendar/contacts fix working under a previous TNTLite version overwrites the Google calendar with the TNT one. Data is kept, and sync keeps working, but you get the low-end TNT Calendar interface. [deleted stuff about installing the Google calendar.apk from /sdcard, because it makes things way unstable.]
[G Tablet General] Linuxslate:
I was at 2.0.3

I manually put back the following:

vold from 2.0.4 (which, if my understanding is correct, is the original vold as provided by Viewsonic)

Calendar.apk

CalendarProvider.apk

Contacts.apk

ContactsProvider.apk

-- all from 2.0.0

I now have working Exchange Calendar sync (yes, it is correct as others have said that Calendar sync was working, but the TnT calendar cannot display it. Under 2.0.4, the Calendar Widget would show Exchange events, there was just nothing in the TnT Calendar)

It seems there is still something funny going on with vold, as I have seen stuff still there that I had deleted. Another mount/unmount, or reboot sets everything straight.

Still have the 2.0.3 1/2 speed up.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
2.0.4 should fix that. The PP / 2.0.3 has a VOLD binary that was causing weird issues. At least it did for me.

EDIT: I'm ready for a 2.0.5, but still not sure what I'm adding in there GApps / contacts / calendar related.
[G Tablet General] rushless:
Sorry! I was not specific enough, since was referring to having both the 2400 Q scores AND the device being stable as well and reading all storage correctly :)

We now have a stable device, but back to "earthly" 1800 levels ;)
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Holey moley!!!!! 2600 Quadrant AND camera is working

I have a 2.0.5 prototype and am testing it. WOW. Got a fix from proengin who passed it on.

So, here's my problem - I want this AND the Gapps fixes in 2.0.5 -- but I'm still stuck on the latter. I have some ideas but if someone can give me a definitive answer, I'd appreciate it. It sounds like v2 gmail.apk, v2 GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk and GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk, and TnT Lite 2.0.0 calendar and contacts apks. That sound right?
[G Tablet General] manfly9884:

[G Tablet General] jacindc:
(now that I have the morning cobwebs out) I'm not sure you can do the calendar/contacts sync fix in a supplemental, because I believe the big issue is that the SyncAdapter files need to be in place when you first set up your accounts. My fix in that other thread is predicated on a user data wipe, and having the Gapps v2 stuff in place on the first reboot, so that they're there when the SetupWizard and OneTimeInitializer run.

Getting the TNTLite 2.0 (aka Google) calendar and contacts apks back into the supplementals will allow people who've done the sync fix to not lose the Google apps during your supplemental upgrades, but I'm not sure at this point that the sync fix itself can be done without user data wipes. (It might have to be similar to the Market and Flash fixes--telling people in the main TNTLite thread how to get sync working, but not part of TNTLite itself) But I'm a real newbie to all of this, and so maybe someone with more knowledge of how the Google account stuff works can weigh in with a way to clear out just the Google sign-on stuff and rerun the setup wizard without blowing away the rest of your installed user data.
[G Tablet General] proengin:
Roebeet,

Thanks. I simply passed on the update from Xiaolu - we must give credit where it is due even though he doesn't hang out here.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Agreed and I will do that when 2.0.5 is released. But without you, it would have never gotten in my hands!

[G Tablet General] roebeet:
It's like wiping your user profile in windows -- all your settings and local apps get deleted. For Gapps changes, it seems to be required.
[G Tablet General] mrackley:
in a nutshell

- Install clockworkmod recovery

- when you flash boot (power + volume up) with clockworkmod installed you get text menu that pops up... use your volume up and down to navigate the menu and home button to select a menu option

- go to advanced->Partition SD Card

- Create an Ext Size of 2058 and a Swap Size of 256

- This will wipe out all your data.

- Then use Clockworkmod's menu and go to "mounts and storage"

- then select "mount USB storage" this will mount your tablet to your PC so you can copy over your new updates

- Unmount your tablet

- Select "apply sdcard:update.zip" if you copied your update zip to your mnt\sdcard, otherwise select "install zip from sdcard"

Then you should be set!!

Did I miss any steps?
