You need nvflash. If not you are screwed. Use virtualbox and setup linux to use nvflash. You are looking at a quick operation to get your gingerbread on.
[G Tablet Android Development] BenziT:
Do I delete the update.zip and recovery folder AFTER upgrading it to 3588 ? This is so that I can flash it to other roms ?

Thanks
[G Tablet Android Development] roebeet:
Recovery command file erases itself, so that way you won't accidentally re-run. But you can safely delete the update.zip as well, if you want.
[G Tablet Android Development] tjsooley:
This should have the 1.2 firmware too. then it should be renamed and sticked

[G Tablet Android Development] superpaint2008:
sorry my English is very bad.

My Gtab was great, it was using Vegan 5.1. Yesterday, it had some problems,it often force close app ( game, music...). So I went in to CWM and reinstalled rom. But the soft button could not use, I can't do anything in CWM. I holded the power button to turn off my gtab and went I went into Vegan 5.1, the soft button still can't use.

Next, I nvflash and reset factory, my soft button used normanly.But when I reinstalled CWM , the soft button could't use in CWM and stock rom.I tried nvflash with CWM, but it was the same.

Now, when I hold power button and volume+, the soft button can't use in CWM and the stock rom. I often Nvflash and reset factory, but sometime the soft button can use. I turn off my gtab over 6 hours, it is normal.

Can you help me. I want to install new rom but I can't use CWM

thank you so much

tap n tap looping

here is the deal tried reinstall back to factory using TnT 1.1-3588 recovery ROM but now it just loops and it wont let me back into recovery when it tries it ends up with a box unloading thern reloops again what can I do the computer doesnt recognise it because it loops then shuts down after the 3rd loop Help!!![/B] [/B]:eek:
[G Tablet Android Development] rajeevvp:
1. Why do you want to install TapNTap? Unless you really like it, there's no reason to install it.

2. To fix your problem:

a) Install the correct version of CWM using nvflash.

b) Follow the instructions in this post to wipe all user data.

c) Transfer and install the ROM you want (assuming not TapNTap).

I looked on here and it looked like to upgrade to a bigger microsd card, i just had to copy everything onto the new card and i'd be good to go.

Well i tried that and when i put the new card in, a lot of installed programs were missing, including marketplace.

So i put the original card back in, but i have the same problem. Those programs are still missing. I know they were there before because I used the marketplace last night to install an app.

Any ideas what i messed up and how to fix it?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
The Market is not stored on the SD card, so upgrading the card would do nothing to it.

Are you sure you formatted the new card first? Are you sure you copied EVERYTHING from the old card to the new one?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] merkk:
i did not format it. I thought android does that automatically when there's a new card inserted? And yes i copied everything, or at least i copied everything that showed up in windows explorer when i plugged the phone in.

I'm going to try restoring a backup from a few days ago to see if that resolves the problem with my missing apps.

I should mention I'm not using the default rom - i have Evio installed. Not sure if that's moved the market to the sd card or not.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] merkk:
nevermind about the missing apps - i tried wiping the cache and dalvik and that fixed it. Now i just need to know what the proper method is for swapping cards. Although maybe the other card will work now that i fixed the missing apps issue.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l8agin:
I think just copying everything to the new card will do it. I did last week and so far my evo is running fine.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacoballen22:
Format the new card and it will add the necessary folders then transfer the old stuff to your computer and then to the new card. Had to reinstall angry birds and andro zip but all my save data was still there:>D

Sent from HTC EVO 4G via xda app
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] merkk:
I didn't even have to format the card. Just doing a copy was enough. Either android auto-formats the card when it detects a new one, or copying all the files was enough and a format wasn't needed. Apparently the problem i had with the cache was not related to the card. I guess the cache got corrupted some how.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ingenue007:
I rooted my assistant's phone with stock firmware a month or so ago with unrevoked. All she wanted was wireless tether.

Can she update to the newest OTA? Since this looses root, can I just do unrevoked again?

If she just wants newest OTA from time to time, is this the best way to do it?

Thanks.

Mostly Running Ok

Well, after installing this, and the wifi fix from tegra forums (I can't link since I'm a "new member"), it's running pretty good. It's VERY fast!

But I am having one big problem with it. Dolphin keeps giving me 400 errors (bad verb) on the majority of the links I click. About 20% of the time it will work, and the rest give me the error. If I use the normal browser it works fine. Since I can't uninstall Dolphin, I'm at a loss as to what to try... I like this ROM best out of all of the others (Cyanogen barely works at all, and I hate the interface on the vanilla version).

Any thoughts on a fix?
[G Tablet General] ircmaxell:
Well, 400 means that the HTTP request headers are somehow borked. But since certain sites give me the specific error "Invalid Verb", my guess is that it's not sending the proper HTTP verb (GET / POST / PUT / HEAD, DELETE / OPTIONS / TRACE / CONNECT / PATCH, with GET, POST and HEAD being common).

And it's multiple sites. I've caught it about 50% of the time with google, 100% of the time with Dolphin's home page, and about 20% - 50% with other pages...

When I get some time, I'll setup one of my servers to log the entire raw request to see what it's doing.

But since this is built into the build, I can't even try re-installing Dolphin (I can try re-installing the entire ROM, and likely will at some point)...

Thanks for the response...
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I'm probably going to pull it out on the next build - it was a temp solution to get around the TnT browser, but with the market now working a user could easily install whatever browser they want, now.

As for when the next build will come, I'm waiting for VS's firmware update next week (assuming it's released, of course).
[G Tablet General] doug3673:
Does flash work in the browser in this ROM?
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Yes, it works in the TnT browser. I believe the DolphinHD browser is spotty at best and Firefox does not work, tmk.

You obviously need to sideload it as this ROM was released before the Flash update came out. I will most likely add the Flash update to the next build - I'm holding off as I'm hoping that VS releases their big update as they promised.
[G Tablet General] insight3fl:
Hello Roebeet. Still crusing on your full vanilla from 11/06; been ultra stable for me. But i really want a clean build but with standard mail, calendar and contact apps so i can seemlessly sync all with my work exchange account.

Does your lite vesion have this, or one of rothnic's? Or do i have to switch to a zpad image to get those apps working?
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I think the zPad and TnT Lite versions have the canned versions (or closer to canned). I ripped out most of the TnT apps in TnT Lite, except for the browser which is heavily integrated with TnT.

MD5 Failure

Roebeet,

I'm having difficulty flashing Boot and System from CWM v.8. I'm getting MD5 Checksum Failed! for both. I've downloaded the file three times and unpacked it using winRAR.

Any one else get TnT Lite installed thru v.8?

The Dude

Got it working by installing the first way and then adding CWM v.8. It took me a while to figure out I had to also copy the command file to the recovery folder to get it to run the CWM update.zip.

Thanks again Roe, can't wait for TnT Lite v2
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I think you have to copy all three .img files are the md5 file looks for all of them(?). At least I think that's what happens. Give that a try.

v2 next week, assuming VS releases their firmware update and I can actually get it OTA.
[G Tablet General] thedudevt:
Got another question- I lost sdcard... It worked for the first few boots (i used ACV and opened a file), but now it's not mounting. I can mount it on the PC via CWM still, so it's still formatted and the files are still there.

The Dude (will abide for the next week)

<edit> reloaded ROM, and selectively restored backup apps via titanium (removed all cyanogen apps, and a few others). seems to be great now. much better than CM. Still have to do timezone tho, and get the latest XBMC remote installed.

Flash, AB, ACV, overclocked, so far it's great. I'm stoked for v2!
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
It should be the same as stock -- /mnt/sdcard or /sdcard for internal, and /sdcard2 for the microSD. I never messed with that.
[G Tablet General] Hannigan174:
Just gotta say I am really enjoying the TnT light. It is stable and after changing the build.prop to fix my timezone and doing the market fix it is absolutely awesome. If both could be integrated into the TnT light it would be perfect.

Big ups for Roebeet :)
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
The TZ should be fixed in the VS upcoming update (at least that's why they claim). Hopefully we can find a better Market fix down the road, but this one ain't too bad - just takes a few manual steps.
[G Tablet General] gabemeyers:
There's a market fix? Err.... link? Thanx as well.

@ roebeet after far too many hours trying to load this... victory is mine!!

and was well worth the effort, nothing listed worked for me, had to use nvflash to load

Can't wait to see what's next

Nice work, and donations coming when payday arrives
[G Tablet General] insight3fl:
Roebeet,

Finally switched to tnt lite this morning.... but I don't see the calendar app (need it to sync with outlook on exchange at work). The email and contacts apps are there (just what I was looking for). Does anyone have the 2.2 calendar app files or can I just use any generic 2.2 apks?

Thanks!

EDIT: Contacts do not sync... it allows you to check this setting but it does not sync.

Edit: I imported a 2.2 calendar apk and calendar provider apk and it runs and it syncs! Now I am going to try and import a different contact ap and provider ap

Edit: New contact app working and syncing!

Thanks Roebeet for all your work here... and the others.. you rock!

[G Tablet General] GrimDefamation:
First off, absolutely love the your work roebeet. One minor question though. Is there any way to take out the adfree mod? Its actually blockin me from watching some videos online (cbs.com for example). The adfree android is in the market for anyone to install if need be. Or at least let me kno how to fix this myself if nobody else wants this changed. Thanks a lot and keep up the great work
[G Tablet General] jacindc:
I kind of have to agree with this, from somewhat of a moral standpoint, as someone who does make money in my other life from web ads. Have it be a toggle, or a supplement, but I'm not sure it should be the default....

But please don't think I'm ungrateful. TnTLite is the only reason I haven't returned the gTab.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
The file is /system/etc/hosts. you can just edit / alter that file and leave one line in it:

127.0.0.1 localhost

It was a decision on my part as I find it to be pretty critical to have - not just for this device but also my home PC. The good outweighs the bad, imo.

Btw, it's not so much the adware as much as the potential malware. Granted, Android is not as susceptible but security through obscurity is not a good security solution.

As for paying developers for their hard work, I would recommend contacting the them directly and send them a donation. I've done this recently for Calibre which is an awesome app. Or get their paid versions - they'd probably prefer that, anyway.
[G Tablet General] GrimDefamation:
Ok, so i installed adfree android, ran the update, then reverted within adfree android. Went into superuser and denied adfree. The ad supported videos will now play. Im not 100% if all that is necessary but it worked so im not messin with it anymore lol. Just figured i would report back my findings
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Awesome - that's an even better solution. Adfree actually reverts the hosts file setup I created, for anyone that doesn't want it.

It probably has some logic to wipe the hosts file to a "default" setting, when denied? At least that's what I assume.

It seems to take two tries to work (I saw this). What's strange is that it's the TnT stock app, not vanilla Google. You'd think it would work better(?).

calendar FCing issues with 2.01

I went into settings and deleted the calendar data and cache. Now I don't have any issues with FCs, but it's not syncing with my Exchange calendar. Exchange contact syncing is working great.
[G Tablet General] x_specter_x:
I had a reboot problem that I caused and fixed it. I had CM 6.1 installed and used clockwork recovery to install 2.02 of TNT lite (not knowing it was only an update). When it booted up it got stuck in a loop. To fix it I followed the instructions for installing CM 6.1 but used TNT Lite 2.0.0 file.

To Install TNT Lite 2.0.2:

1. Copy tnt lite file2.0.0.zip to your internal SD Card

2. Copy tnt lite file2.0.2.zip to your internal SD Card

3. Boot into Clockwork Recovery by holding down Power and Volume +

4. Wipe data/factory reset

5. Wipe Cache

6. Install Zip from sdcard

7. Choose Zip from sdcard

8. Choose tnt lite file2.0.0.zip

9. Choose Zip from sdcard

10. Choose tnt lite file2.0.2.zip

11. After install is finshed choose Reboot System Now

That worked for me. Hope this helps others.

Thanks roebeet! I love my G Tablet now. It went from lame to great in the flash of a ROM.
[G Tablet General] edgevision:
Just want to say - now that I have sideloaded Flash & hacked Market, on this ROM, with Overclock widget @ 1.2GHz... this tablet is a freaking BEAST now. Seriously. Wow. Just, wow.

Thanks so much roebeet.
[G Tablet General] jacindc:
I still have never gotten more than my default calendar synced.

It's really strange--if you go into Contacts - Accounts - Add Account, the options are for Corporate, and then Facebook and Twitter if you've installed those apps. But on my Nexus One, there's also an option to add a Google account. That's what we're missing, and what would allow the true syncing in the way Google intended. I wonder why that doesn't appear here?

I've been searching G-Tablet review forums and sending/replying with comments about this posting from roebeet. I'm trying to get the word out that there is software here that works very well with this device.

I believe SetCPU does the same thing as Overclock Widget. The slowdown issue is a suspend/resume bug that causes frequency scaling to get stuck.
[G Tablet General] ItsDon:
If the newer kernel is indeed the "slowdown" culprit would it be possible to drop the older kernel in the newer build? What would that fix/bork besides the lag?
[G Tablet General] gotwillk:

[G Tablet General] anlog:
Happens on both Viewsonic kernels. It just seems to happen a bit more frequently on the newer one.
[G Tablet General] ItsDon:
Hmmmm.... Happens extremely often on 3.1.2 & VeganB4. I have never seen a slowdown on VeganB3. It's just such an elusive bugger, happens for some folks and doesn't for others.
[G Tablet General] Sprdtyf350:
It seems to happen less for me when I am using the VEGAn roms. I am using VEGAn Beta 4 now and I haven't seen it yet. Sleep seems to be less hit and miss also.

Strange stuff going on...

Well it JUST happened to me on vegan b4. I went about 5 hours without the lag, with over 25 resume/suspends. I was extra careful with the power button, etc.

Weird Market error after update

Since my update to the newest firmware 3.12 I am unable to load any apps from the market. I get an error that states "Sorry there is not enough space to load this item". Any ideas? I checked and I have like 13 GB available. Tried reloading 3.10 and I am still getting the error. Of course I wiped data and cache after both installs. Just looking for a little help. Even tried putting it back to stock in between with no help.
[G Tablet General] Sprdtyf350:
Yeah, I'm sure I will see it sometime today. Hasn't failed me yet with any rom. Very weird how sometimes it will wake by pressing the button, others it goes totally to sleep. I have more of a problem with those things then with the slowdown/lag.

Hopefully it will get fixed...
[G Tablet General] Sprdtyf350:
At some time you may have partitioned the sdcard to something other than 2048. The out of memory error can almost always be fixed by going into clockwork and partitioning the sdcard back to 2048, and a 0 swap.
[G Tablet General] makto:
"Why do I keep seeing repartitioning as a solution to install problems?

Because Viewsonic didn't partition the G-Tablets in a way that Android likes to live on. By repartitioning, Android feels happier and many issues/problems are resolved.

What is the recommended repartition ratio?

2GB/0MB is STRONGLY recommended for TnT Lite 3.00+

2GB/256MB is considered the default setup

4GB/256MB is used by many people, but see the aforementioned caveat regarding TnT Lite."

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=874258

The issue showed up for me after 3.00 and a quick repartition has resolved every since.. might browse the whole article Malenhead.. I still go back to it for a refresher from time to time
[G Tablet General] ctendell:
my .2 cents

I upgraded to 3.1.2 last night and have been running it all day. Numerous sleeps, both automatically and hitting the power button and I haven't experienced any lag. I have the stock partition scheme as far as I can tell. (I've never changed it)

BTW...Thanks for fixing the home screen long press ;-)
[G Tablet General] rushless:
I thought the G is partitioned 2gb/0mb? 1.82gb and 13.02 balance would equal the result from 16gb for actual usable space. 1.82gb usable space is about right for a 2gb allocation.
[G Tablet General] malenhead:
You da Man

Thanks for the tip. That is exactly what it was, don't know how I did it or why I missed it, but back up and running. Thanks!
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I've considered that, but that would mean a fork in TnT Lite and technically another build. I'm already considering that with any custom kernels coming around the bend so it's just a question of the best path to go on.

I'm debating on a "TnTx" build that would add a custom kernel, but too early to know for sure, yet.

Can someone point me to the faq/tutorial on how to partition correctly please?
[G Tablet General] kozmo2k4:
Funny thing. Switched from Launcher Pro to Zeam and so far no L-o-W! I let it go to sleep 3 times (not really long, maybe 20 minutes each) so far and then benchmarks are: L=37.58 and Q=2410+!!!! I only tried a handful of apps and all looks good so far. I still think we have a kernel bug on our hands, but switching to another home app makes it "less painfull"? Gonna let go to sleep overnight and we'll see in the morning.
[G Tablet General] v12xke:
Probably best to see the "[GUIDE] Install ClockworkMod, TnT Lite 2.2, Flash, and Market Fix" See the first section. Download and install CWM per the instructions. Just to be sure, boot CWM, navigate to “mounts and storage” and mount “/system” and “/data” . Exit, select Advanced, then Partition. Select 2M or 2048 first, and then 0 kb on the next screen. If it doesn't take at least one minute and wipe your internal memory, you did it wrong and just re-do. My experience was that without mounting first, partition completed, but left data on the card which tells me it did not work. Once you have CWM installed, never be afraid to wipe the entire internal card. You can always install any ROM to a blank drive with it. I think it is a best practice to partition/format before installing a major build. Within CWM, under “mounts and storage” is mount USB, so you can always select this and then copy any files needed over from your PC.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Good app to look at - I actually use Launcher Pro myself, and no issues (yet).
[G Tablet General] tyy10002:
I just switched back from vegan b3 to tnt 3.12. And have not experience any slow down after sleep for a few hours. I am using adw launder, and I encounter an annoying issue, when I move my finger up when touching the the screen, my notification bar get stuck and all hardware buttons do not response anymore. The only two ways to get out are reboot or rotate the tablet from landscape to portrait. I feel that vegan is faster but the tnt build fixes the power on/off and wifi connect/disconnet issues. I will try different launcher pro.

I'm watching to see how this pans out - I have to watch this from the outside in, as my device does not have the lag issues.

I'm also curious on how to deploy this, once we have something stable - technically a custom kernel is no longer "TnT Lite", it's really something entirely different.
