one quick question in setting up the upgrade from 1.3d to 1.4:

When using Titanium Backup, I back up all user apps + system apps.

Once upgraded to 1.4 can I restore also system apps, or I can mess something doing this? It's better to restore only user apps?

Thanks
[Folio 100 Android Development] mddsd:
Anyone having problems installing applications from Android Market (in v1.4)?

Some applications install without any problem at all, but for the following applications I get the error "Unknown reason -18" and then the app is not installed.

I cannot install Angry Birds, Raging Thunder 2, Reckless Racing or Turbo 3D.

Any help is appreciated.

you cannot update, as those ARE the latest ones you got installed, check version releases and Post #1
[Folio 100 Android Development] mddsd:
Yep I tried it but it did not work, I still get the same error "Unknown reason -18".

I also unmounted the sdcard and then rebooted the Folio, but still the same error.

The strange thing is that some apps install just fine...

And if I side load any of the apps that I cannot install then they work just fine.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
its your "move 2 sdcard" for froyo2.2 causing it..

delete files on your sdcard in the .android_secure folder or exactly just the one you're trying to download,

secondly wipe /cache in recovery .

[Folio 100 Android Development] geek92:
Okey,

To Reflash your Recovery it's simple !

1) Install the Adb driver.

For driver :

- Download the android SDK here

- Edit "<your-android-sdk-folder>/usb_driver/android_winusb.inf"

- Add the following after [Google.NTx86] (or [Google.NTamd64] if 64 bits windows)

Code:

;NVIDIA Tegra

%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0955&PID_7000

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0955&PID_7100&MI_01

- start your folio in fastboot mode and plug in. Win will not find the right driver to use. You can access fastboot by pressing POWER x 3 ( attention : 3 times only not 4) then VOL UP when the folio start

- Force driver installation : click update driver -> have disk -> point to "<your-android-sdk-folder>/usb_driver/android_winusb.inf"

After this you normally can use fastboot place in : <your-android-sdk-folder>/tools

For the recovery.img you can use the one include in the update.zip or one from FolioMod.

Put the recovery.img in the same directory of fastboot : <your-android-sdk-folder>/tools

2) To flash the recovery :

Usage :

place the recovery.img or boot.img in the same directory as fastboot then from a shell navigate to your fastboot directory and us the following command :

for recovery:

Code:

./fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Hello,

I have installed the 1.4 and i have some trouble, one more time, with the connexion Wi-Fi on Netgear WPN 824 V2 router. It is impossible to connect to the router with this version of rom. I had already the same problem with 1.3b and Dexter posted a patch for fix and it works. The network is found and i write the correct key WPA (try 3 times) but it doesn't find IP. The router was configurated with Mac adress of tablet and it assign a fix IP. Thank for the help.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
good, you hopefully still use the old driver fix, as its the latest Toshiba edition used here, and not many reports the issues.. maybe try different wpa encryption, i know others with wrong configs, like wpa2+tkip which is no good on some pc's, where only wpa2+aes is a proper solution..
[Folio 100 Android Development] kgerva:
I think that the problem with the market (some app) should be the name of the device SGH-T859

For example with documents to go if I recovery the app with titanium backup I can install the app,but it does'nt work with the message "unsupported device SGH-T859"

If I try to install documents to go from the marker I can't do it.

Can you check this?

Thanks
[Folio 100 Android Development] mddsd:
Dexter, have you made any changes in the FolioMod v1.4 to enable support for MKV?

The reason why I ask is that I found out that even the stock video player now support MKV but it's a bit sluggish and no sound.

But I'm quite certain that neither the stock video player or Toshiba Media Player supported this in previous versions.

The Toshiba Media Player identifies the MKV file and say's it's Matroska.

another update:

tested Google Earth on ElocityA7, and it also fails here, just keeps spinning, so its currently not compatible in the edition they fixed so far.. not sure we can call it a google problem but more Nvidia, if i watch the logs it seems to wait forever for the device to respond in some drawing call..

For this a-realtime-androidlogcat-abnd-kernel-dmesglog-to-sdcard-or-internalflash-dumping-feature (with flushing after each write, to be sure the file contains it also the all last stuff before the full-lockup-freeze (where even a adb-usb-connection works nomore, the device is then fully freezed until battery-remove or "sometimes, not always" 5sec powerbuttonpressing), which my folio have it also many times) would be great. So could you add it, Dexter?
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
not sure where or how to include, as when a tablet is frozen,

- how will you activate logging?

- how should an application be notified?

- can the problem actually be detected or is it a kernel panic happening?

its not always that simple, and why the SOD issue "was" hard to find, and some might even report it still exist, and will be hard to find, as the problem can be in leaky apps actually or the combination of such, or wrong coding and not 2.2 compatible or anything that falls into such category.
[Folio 100 Android Development] BeRo1985:
Not "when", already before it! ;)

Simply like at emother's old G1 rom for example per menu item in the settings or per shell script.

And it must notifing nothing. It should log only the logcat+dmesg output directly 1:1 to a text file on the sdcard or internal flash, so it is checkable then, what was going on right "before" (not when or while) the lookup-freeze in search of possible hints.

Hi guys, I noticed current flash player in Dexter mod v1.4 still have some problems with Youtube video such as you can't choose resolution setting. According to this source:

http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/02/21/download-tegra-2-compatible-flash-player-build-leaks-out/#

there's a new flash player v10.1.120.10 that has been spreaded on the internet, have any of you tried it? I personally haven't tried it yet, because I was afraid it might caused more problems than what we currently have. Pls let me know ur opinion if you have tried it, thanks
[Folio 100 Android Development] BeRo1985:
Nope, this works only while it's not freezed yet. What i did mean, is a background daemon, which is logging direct all new logcat/dmesg messages to a file together with direct-disksync-flushing, so that even that "right short before" a freeze will logged. But i can look, when I myself have time to code this meself.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
look no further. :-) you got 10.1.120.10 if you look closely in version release of app settings.

all your finding are what i mentioned and why motorola is not offering flash for tegra2.. it simply is not good enough for our tablets yet. so no need to report back on the lack of adobe functions and unstability issues on tegra2 tablets.
