Hi Dexter,

upgraded to v1.3d just a couple of days ago, firstly GREAT performance improvement!!!

Had yesterday some trouble with the screen, was using Miren Browser and sometimes the screen did not react to touch/scroll.

Yesterday evening I touched the Weather Widget (GenieWidget) and Folio began vibrating unstopable. I could go to homescreen, call the shutdown menue and tried to shutdown, but apparently Folio did not want to (icon was "turning", but no shutdown). Meanwhile vibrating lasted on. The only way to stop that was taking out the battery... Strange in a train...

Don't know whether this was just an one-time issue, but wanted to report it in case someone has experienced it too.

I use the original GenieWidget.apk. Kind of strange behaviour...

I will watch this.

Br,

Small note: To reset, there is usually no need to remove battery but you can press power button for more then 5s (similar to PC), if normal shutdown is not possible.

Folio freezing up

I've installed 1.3d and since that moment (might also have been with 1.3c ...), I'm often experiencing a 'complete freeze' of the Folio. It does not seem to matter what app I'm using or what I used before. Can even occur when scrolling in the 'desk top'. I have the wait up to a minute before I'm able to use the Folio again. I've de-activated (or evenremoved) several app's that were loaded at start-up, but did not help. The only thing that seems to help is a reboot ...

I'm sure I was not having this when using 1.3b. Perhaps I need to reinstall 1.3 and 1.3b and try this out
[Folio 100 Android Development] gohanSS:
others solved some problems by doing a factory reset, install folio stock rom, FR again, install foliomod and FR again (be sure to use a 1 or 2 GB SD not a SDHC, just in case)

Wifi disconnects solved!!!

For information of the forum, I read somewhere here that somebody was having the same problems as I: the wifi connection was getting disconnected or out of range after a few hours (sometimes even a few minutes).

It happens me with both the stock ROM and the Foliomod 1.3D, including to set to Never the disconnection from wifi. The only way I had to solve it was restarting again the router. I couldn't however change the encryption method of the modem.

What I did to definitively solve the problem was to change the wifi router and now it works.

Old router: Amper AW01 (also called Xavi 7968r): wifi g type with WEP encryption.

New router (in fact a WIFI adapter because it was cheaper connected to the old router): Ovislink WiFi N Evo-W301AR: wifi n type with WPA2 encryption.

By the way, the post I read with alike problems was using a Belkin router and he solved by using a Zyxel.
[Folio 100 Android Development] gohanSS:
wep encryption was a poor choice in the beginning :) so it is good you moved to WPA2 ;)

You could have tried the patch posted by dexter with the old wifi driver.

Het dex, could you do something about the sound thing with big files?

I've just tried to watch a .avi video with a size of 1.3GB, and I dont get sound. (i think it was something with a cache size?!)
[Folio 100 Android Development] laudrup69:
hi,

I keep trying to fix my problems with the sdcard and reading this thread from post 1, I have found a user which gives the same message to me at the timeupgrade the tablet .

x Dexter. you post the following

ok...I downloaded the file, I get ready to apply ... and I get the following screen

je...How do I rootme? ...

I repeated the process with the cable connected to pc, but I have no access to the tablet.

... any conclusions?
[Folio 100 Android Development] Butchi:
....

Another small note.

There is also a small reset button on the back under the cover.

I guess it's all the same: pressing the on/off button for >5 sec, removing the battery or pushing the reset button. Maybe you need to correct the date/time if you remove the battery too long.

Some questions

I abandoned the idea of buying the "folio 100" considering all the negative items found on the web, but reading this post I'm interested again.

I just wanted to ask who has a "folio 100" a few things:

1) this ROM is multilingual or only in English?

2) It can be or will be translated into other languages?

3) The address book and calendar can be synchronized with gmail as I do now with my htc desire?

4) There is an advanced email client that saves local all mail such as you can do with thunderbird, evolution, etc..?

Thanks very much.
[Folio 100 Android Development] ommx:
Update, since my last reply, i have keep it on stand by till now, and it never once wake up, but the wifi seem to drop off which is very strange as i set it to never sleep, so Dextor please check on this, thanks
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
1) yes, v0.2 is multilanguage

2) see 1.

3) dont know, but i am sure its possible or works like this.

4) dont know, maybe others can answer here.
[Folio 100 Android Development] stilgar1337:
Awesome!

I don't care about the wifi being on all the time, so this is looking good for me! I hope the new version gets released soon

Tutorial

Hello,

Is it possible to have a clear and precise tutorial for a beginner like me on how to install the ROM, because I fail every time.

Thank you Dexter_nlb for your exellent work

[Folio 100 Android Development] ellite:
Dexter_nlb , we believe in your skills... launch v0.2 as public ;) we will test it :)
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
let me get final feedback from testing, and it will be official depending on how serious problems are..

only one possible "user" issue here, which complicates installs from Market is now a matter..ill try to see if i can do something on that topic.

update,

Seems a bigger download with market issue is there, this might just delay release a little :-(
[Folio 100 Android Development] fauli007:
hey dexter! seems like great work...thinking about getting a folio in the next week

enjoyed (still enjoying) some of your mods on my milestone (BIG THX FOR THAT!! :) )...so my big question...does the folio has the same "problem" as the milestone (locked bootloader?) and we will see "only" mods or is there any possibility to have real ROMs, like CM, in the future?
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
no, its fully opened!!!

So look out, 100% custom kernel + rom will appear, its just a matter of time..

and of course support from interested users.

PS: They got another "slate" with Tegra2 chipset sold in US, which has a CM6.1 beta on it, based on our Tegra2 cpu, i might just test and prepare this for our folio, so its already there..
[Folio 100 Android Development] stilgar1337:
It might be insteresting to understand how the folio's hardware differs from the advent vega, they should be more or less the same and it seems that the vega does not have these issues... Maybe the vega firmware can be ported to the folio?
[Folio 100 Android Development] fauli007:
sounds perfect
[Folio 100 Android Development] bigbbl:
for those who are testing v0.2 please check out with default Toshiba file manager... of course if you have it, cuz it seems working perfect and even better then any other file manager... also if you remove sd card and then put it back, open again toshiba file manager, surprise sd card already mounted ;)
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
that is not part of stock firmware from Nvidia, but ill check if it can work in this release.

included now :-) (it works fine)
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
can you explain "issues", and find it more less quite fine.. the issues here, are that Toshiba stock rom is still modified to their needs, so my merger with Nvidia stock apps is not always so simple.

But yes, Vega and ViewSonic

Viewsonic should have CM6 beta on it, so im probably going to check if that is working for us as well somehow, problem is probably hardware differences, so a new CM6 kernel needs to be made to be 100% CM compliant.
[Folio 100 Android Development] ommx:
Dexter_nlb,

if possible can you add back some old Toshiba app, such as the file manager, media player, (they kinda good)

Some Issues

Found Angry Bird icon gone and a placeholder in place.

Also, the sound on Folio is pretty hopeless. Can anything be done about that as even with earphones on it's still barely audible.

Thanks

PS- got back Angry Birds shortcut icon after starting the game from applications tab.

Very Good Mod! , please continue ............. :D , Italian language its possible !?
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
v0.2 will fix it :-) handling is much better now.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
FileManager is added, i can check the mediaplayer.. we got quite some space, so i dont see it as a big problem.

maybe ill advance this in v0.3 , so people can uninstall apps which they dislike having installed :-) (but not in v0.2 coming now)

Touchscreen freezing issue with old wifi patch

So that at last after 4 days, my own compiled kernel didn't help a folio started to freeze again.

I did wipe, installed full 1.4d, did wipe and after 6 hours it started again. When it starts then it is not going to be any better.

So that I applied old wifi patch and it didn't help. Freezing maybe even worse.

Again I installed full 1.4d with wipe, after several hours freezing again.

Another wipe and everything ok (for a several future hours).

At least I know now that full wipe helps. After full wipe even without reinstallin foliomod, everything is perfect.

Freezing is very very bad, I would say that except total freezes there are moments when screen reacts differently. Upper part of the screen best and lower worst. And tapping the sceen at the lower edge is very often impossible.

I put a new 8dBi antenna on my linksys wrt54g (OpenWrt) but didn't help. On the weekend I will try another wifi router from my office.

But I remind again that after full wipe, the folio reacts excellently, no freeze at all and tapping possible anywhere and anytime. It starts getting worse and worse until I wipe it because I loose my nerves with it.

Is it safe to update with stock firmware (dexter's from the 1st page to test) and then go back to FolioMod again?
[Folio 100 Android Development] diman87:
Well I thought power that thing off will work for sure :D

Thank you though!
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
I think now we got like 100+ posts about "screen" lags and that it seems to freeze for some users..

My problem is i never seen it, and some reports like from kakkio also points about it differ from folio 2 folio although they are configured exactly the same.

Should we have a dedicated thread, because the Main Topic seems to dissappear in all this.
[Folio 100 Android Development] rccheca:
but if we take this issue of the post, the problem will be lost. When a problem is almost certainly mod. With 1.2 most users had no problems.

I know it is very heavy, but the problem isvery annoying and makes the Folio very unusable. Those who have the problem we are hoping that is resolved.

Regards, and thank you very much for your efforts.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Martin1201:
What helped for me was:

Do wipe,

install stock rom from Toshiba

do wipe,

install folioemod 1.3d

Everyting works well

I've managed to solve problem with sdcard... well problem sdcard and storage (internal memory), because the tablet saw neither the storage nor sdcard.

Now repeat the process with pictures and post them and I shall as solvent, so that works for others
[Folio 100 Android Development] shpitz:
You are right.

According to the detailed description of

TOBR

it happens after several hours of work and requires cleaning memory

In my experience problems that were caused by the withdraw of memory leak in one of the applications.
[Folio 100 Android Development] laudrup69:
The two times I tried to install the stock rom from Toshiba, never restarts and I have to restart by hand and when it starts, it has come to change the firmware.

I'll try the method that has helped me to recover the internal storage and the sdcard. Basically I follow the following steps:

1 .- Important. Tablet connected via cable to pc (usb)

2 .- Boot in recovery mode without sdcard

3 .- home click on the image of the android as appears

4 .- perform a data wipe

5 .- From the pc "adb shell"

6 .- Put in root ("su")

7 .- Amount then the unit by hand (busybox mount / dev/block/mmcblk1p1 / sdcard)

8 .- Now I choose to install update.zip options ...

... so I work.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Amber-Willow:
I have the screen lag as well, happens way too often, but it can "fixed" for the moment by pressing one of the menu buttons, switching to another orientation (to portrait and back to landscape and it reacts again). this is only for a short period though, because a couple of minutes later the same problem is back again.

Also, 1.3b had no problems, 1.3d is the worst in responsiveness (for me) so far, and i did a full wipe before and after.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
To do this right i think only one way forward is a "rollback" patch for the 4 changes below, and then eash new fix is added on top and we find out which part makes screen lag happen.?

•Weeds2000 did it again and solved the paid apps issue.(see his thread here

I dont think this could have anything to do with it. but i dont know yet. a failed call to a service which in this jar does not happen.

•Phone icon enabled (to support 3G modem)

Same as paid apps, but is enabled in existing framework and not replaced with another function from other tablet.

•3D performance hack (78 framerate)

test patch exists, and some with screen lag issue, has tested, and said it had no effect.

•GPS / Mobile data enable or disable function in Settings and widget menu

•GPS fix in build.prop so its not enabled anymore during bootup.

only when activated it has an effect.. so if anything, its because ppl disable GPS

ill post the patches to wifi/screen driver in post #1 tonight.
[Folio 100 Android Development] laudrup69:
Test2 13c you tried carrying the old drivers wifi?

You can download it from here (See bottom of page in the section of the folio 100)
[Folio 100 Android Development] tobr:
I don't think so. At least considering RAM memory. It happens after several hours of using fresh installed foliomod but of course I made several suspends, shutdowns without inproving anything. So that when folio is in freeze mood, it starts freezing immediatelly after reboot :-(

Otherwise reboot would be acceptable solution after long working.

Hi, I had an issue: Now I can't connect to my Wifi network. It's wep protected, with static ip and has a Mac filter. With FolioMod 1.3c I could connect without problems.

When I try to connect it says "Obtaining ip" and it disconnects after a few seconds.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
nothing changed in 1.3d regards to network(except paid apps fix by weeds) .. but a previous user just indicated that WEP is no good solution on folio's use a higher encrypted like WPA/tkip or so..
[Folio 100 Android Development] killerbie:
That is wierd, I think wep problems depends on wich router/modem is used. I'm with a (recent, 1year i think) Dlink router with wep, I never had problems with any wireless device.

When i was using the htc touch diamond with android 2.2, there were also a lot of users with wep problems.

I really think it depends on the firmware of the used router.

Hi Dex,

Have an issue while playing music with headset:

The sound is like if you have 5.1 dolby without a center: speech tones are very low. I haven't changed anyhing in dsp manager, though the sound does not react on a setting in dsp manager..

I see this several times on this forum. Just a question: can it have to do something with the orientation fix?
[Folio 100 Android Development] Nemo0815:
Today, after using 1.3d for some days now I also experienced the screen no responsiveness issue after 1 hour of using the folio. I never had this before with 1.3d (or other versions) afair.

It's like the touch panel is not reacting every 30sec for about 5-10 seconds. I killed all apps but it did not go away. Also the CPU load seems normal while this happens, and the screen refresh is also done normally (e.g. I can still see animations while browsing and while the screen is unresponsive).

The last thing I did before it happened was opening a PDF file and running some embedded flash on a webpage.

Only a reboot could help this issue.
[Folio 100 Android Development] bjerkeli.org:
Screen Freeze. Have you tried this??

I haven't had big problems with screen lag, but I saw the comment that stated there where no screen lag in portrait mode.

Have anyone with big screen lag/freeze issues tried an orientation lock program.

I guess such programs diables the gyro that detects the right orientation, and using such a program can help confirm if that indeed is the source of the problem or not.

One free orientation lock program is: Rotation Toggler

Since I don't have these problems I can not confirm if it helps or not.

Just a thought.
[Folio 100 Android Development] weeds2000:
I also have the issues with touch screen from time to time, especially in a small area at the bottom of the screen (landscape)

To me it doesn't matter if the device is in portrait or landscape mode.

However I think this is a different problem as the one described here. If your screen does not respond or the device feels laggy in general, try to hook it up to your PC and get the logcat output.

I get several OutOfResources exceptions when this happens, to me this looks like a memory leak within the graphics driver.

This happens most of the time after playing 3D Games or viewing flash content (flash also uses 3D surfaces)

At the moment, the only solution for that is to reboot the device.

Then there is the unresponsiveness of the touchscreen itself, the device runs smooth otherwise (live wallpapers, animations, games etc..) just did not register touch events.

I've tracked this down to the touchscreen driver within the kernel sources.

When the problem appears, the touchscreen driver does not receive any interrupts from the kernel/hardware. So this is either a very low level kernel issue (maybe dualcore related as I feel it happens more often when the "Booted secondary processor" or "CPU1: clean shutdown" messages appear, but this is just a wild guess here) or this is really a hardware issue. Therefore I doubt that any FolioMod fix is related to this and that there is an app which might fix the issue,

I've upgraded my kernel to 10.9.1 from Nvidia tree, issue is still the same, I'll try to apply the patches up to 10.9.8 and will report if anything changes.
[Folio 100 Android Development] SoJoS:
No real problems here on 1.3d. Screen response is good, only after booting I'll have to wait till everything is loaded otherwise the device hangs.
