[Folio 100 Android Development] Scrootch:
Hello everybody,

the problem was, that I had installed the latest DTG-Version, so I tried Dexters solution of copying that build.prop, but didn't find it. So I look for another solution and found one!

I looked at the installed DTG-app and the installation file and there was the hint: I installed DTG from the Toshiba-Apps and updated it through the google market. The installation file was called dxtg-toshiba-store_3.002.apk, now i downloaded a new trial from dataviz - the file was called dxtg-dataviz-store_3.002.apk.

I deinstalled DTG and reinstalled it with the new file and it works again.

So the "toshiba"-file needs a folio and the other file needs any android-device with v.1.6 and above. Maybe another Toshiba move against mod ROMs. Because in Foliomod 1.4 the device name is SGH-T849, so the "Toshiba"-Version of DTG won't run properly.

Best regards and thx for any help

HELP !!!!! Freezing screen on Dexter 1.4

Enormous deception, always the same problem!:mad:
[Folio 100 Android Development] BeRo1985:
My preliminary research results on the complete-freeze / lockup issue with foliomod and other roms, which I have on my current folio and even on my two previous folio's (so on my three folios):

nvos_ioctl calls NvOsSemaphoreDestroy in mach-tegra/nvos/nvos.c, which calls sem_handle_search in in mach-tegra/nvos/nvos.c, and at least this sem_handle_search implementation seems to be the final trigger of the page fault (but sem_handle_search must not be the culprit of it too).

sem_handle_search does binary tree search with the semaphore handle as search key, and if a binary tree node contains a invalid node-next-left or node-next-right pointer, then it will trigger this memory access violation or better page fault kernel exception.

And since nvos_ioctl refers to the user space, because nvos_ioctl is located in the mach-tegra/nvos/nvos_user.c as link to unlocked_ioctl in the nvosfops

file_operations structure, which is used by the ioctl user space API calls and/or user space syscalls. So the real culprit must be "maybe" found from there in user space.

Hence my two suspects in addition to the kernel are now: mediaserver or nvrm_daemon maybe together with a multithreading-code-on-multiple-cores-synchronisation problem.

Unfortunately, the Folio has probably no JTAG, to debug it together with printk on kernel level over a serial console. ADB is almost sadly useless here.

So to all hardware-hackers/hardware-freaks here, get/buy a folio, open and disselect it, and search for JTAG pins on the PCB board. That would be really helpful then.

As a small note: I'm a software developer with very strong high-level and very strong low-level-coding skills

Try to open the back cover of the Folio. Remove the battery, and put it back. Then close the cover. You can also try to tighten the screws too.

After that your Folio should not have any freeze anymore.

azerty USB keyboard

Hello,

I just bought a folio 100 and install the 1.4 Dexter foliomod (very good job...).

When I plug my usb keyboard it is recognise as an qwerty keyboard .

After some search, it seems that this problem comes from android kernel.

So I would like to know if it's possible to develop a patch to initiate an azerty keyboard (french keyboard for me) ?

Thanks

Thanks nickwarn, Dexter_nlb for the informations you gave me.

Actually it's not working at all, but I'am continuing trying to find a solution.

What I have done :

I extracted the kl and kcm.bin files from the compressed file and :

I tried :

1) replace usb_keyboard_102_en_us.kl and the usb_keyboard_102_en_us.kcm.bin

Result : Nothing happened

2) replace qwerty.kl and usb_keyboard_102_us_kcm.bin

Result : virtual and physical keyboard out of work. It took me more than one hour to get them back (oufffff) but still not with french keyboard.

I have three questions to try to find a solution:

1) Is it the same USB drivers are qwerty and azerty usb keyboard

2) What is the kcm.bin file?

3) It's easy to modify the layout .kl for a try, but I do not know wich one I have to modify.
[Folio 100 Android Development] weeds2000:
I'm playing around with the keyboard/EventHub at the moment to introduce Gamepad support.

Have you tried to get the default keylayout file from your folio and mod it according to your keyboard layout?

The file is: /system/usr/keylayout/usb_keyboard_102_en_us.kl

and contents look like that:

key 21 Y

[...]

key 44 Z

for german layout you may simply want to swap Y and Z:

key 21 Z

[...]

key 44 Y

You may want to try and simply map the characters.

I'll think I can release the gamepad patch during the next week. A next step would be to create an application that changes the layout for the gamepad, for those applications that don't let you configure keys. (Or for example to be compatible to Xperia Play buttons)

This application might as well change the layout for usb keybords as well.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
@weeds

i think such "patch" already exists.. see the ElocityA7 rom, its a tegra2 based platform, and someone made some hack to add gamepad support.. not sure how or what is used, but i read it works great on that one, and im pretty sure that hack would work on folio.. i think its primarily used in the emu's for now..

Hi.

First, thanks for the folio mod, it's a great addition. I did use the stock system for about 30 minutes, and it's really a new tablet with this.

I did spot two minor problems, since i didn't use the stock rom for long, i'm not sure if it's there on it too :

- There is some problem to click some links with the google navigator. For example on the XDA forum i can click on the "Next Page" button and it work but it won't work if i click the ">>" button (nothing happen). Same problem on "google.com", nothing happen if i click on the next page button.

- The system wake up itself every minutes or so, i did saw some people talking about it but without any real answer. I will maybe investigate if nobody have an answer.

To finnish, i repeat, great mod, thanks to all involved.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Jarod_:
It's not related to FolioMod.... try another browser or blame Google :-)

It's a "normal" behavior, and it's like that on the stock ROM too. The possible reason is that the Folio tries to synchronize with Wifi, and to do it it needs to wake up every minutes or so.

No one found how to skip this behavior yet...

It happened to me again, but this time when I was trying to unmount my sdcard. It suddenly went into reboot mode, and displayed the ANDROID startup screen, and after startup, I found all my jpg and movies files deleted from my sd card.

[Folio 100 Android Development] kakkio:
in my experience the only suggestion I can give you is to use sdcard <= 2GB.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i got only one good explanation which is that if the card is removed unintentionally and the fsck.msdos command runs, that one might have a bug and deletes invalid information in the filesystem, which may happen to be files larger than X MB, its a not a fact, but i doubt the mediascanner do any deletes. so only the fsck check can cause it..

maybe if you disable it, by removing from /system/bin/fsck.msdos , it will never do such stupid things again.. (ps, not 100% on the name, but then search *msdos)

it deletes all of Folio's internal memory. so i think you can call it "brick", if you cannot recover the internal memory.. its been done, but very tech, and no standard way for anyone to easy recover.. so bricked! thats the closest word and understood by many..

I have been away for a few days, I just tried yesterday to replace the Q with a A and it's working fine. But it there are a lot of difference for accent like é, à, ;, : etc.

Also, I do not understand why the layout I got does not works the one I got from the french key patch) . It seems to have the same syntax, same key words, but it's not loaded (and android take the default qwerty keys). Do you have an idea of what append (file right, empty line at the bottom.. etc)?

[Folio 100 Android Development] shidima_101:
yes its a bit difficult to understand but here goes:

Start your tablet and press power 3 time in a row and then volume up. This will get you into fastboot mode. You will see 1 line of text on the screen.

now you need to open a command prompt go to the folder where you have the android sdk files on your pc. In there there is an exe file called fastboot.exe.

still in the command prompt type in:

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase system

after this reboot your tablet and install the mod as normal.

Hope this helps, i will try it my self when i get home to see if it works.
