I believe it's the allocation for virtual machine memory, so your apps get more room to move with 32m given to it in it's own virtual machine.

Also, at least on the EVO 4G, I have to go to 24, reboot, then go to 32. I did the same thing on the g-tablet (I didn't try just going right to 32)

I spoke to bekriebel on the freenode irc channel yesterday (or monday). He did say he was going to be working on it this week & that a number of Team Douche (the CM teams name) members also bought Gtabs & they were going to be working on it too.

Aside from some slowdowns that seem to take place on resume, I think it seems to be working well. We are missing some RC2 items but I guess those will be added at some point too.
[G Tablet Android Development] RichTJ99:
A little more from the IRC channel today:

[19:20] <@bekit|away> Cool... I'm hoping to get time to work on things more this week

[19:20] <@bekit|away> teamdouche is hacking away at it as well

[19:20] <rothnic-laptop> that is good to know

[19:20] <comhack> screw that I wont take mine back

[19:21] <marican-work> bekit, are they hackign on it at a tegra level or focusing specifically on the gtablet?

[19:21] <bthoo_> thanks to bekit and roe for making these things non-worthless

[19:21] <@bekit|away> I still have a few days, but I think I've decided to keep it; if nothing else, to use it as a dev device and practice the CM builds in preperation for a better tegra2 device; when the make them ;)

[19:22] <comhack> yeah I still have about 20 days but I will not return it

[19:22] <@bekit|away> marican - gtablet... at least three folks on the team have them now
[G Tablet Android Development] raydog153:

[G Tablet Android Development] realsol:
OK, I think I really screwed up.

Should have been in bed, but wanted to update this ROM. I was running beta 2. I installed Clockwork, booted into it and forgot to do a backup of Beta 2. Installed beta 4 zip, rebooted and it just sticks on the 'Android' screen.

I still had the Beta2.zip on the SDCard, so I tried to install that hoping that would work, but still stuck on the 'Android' screen.

Was hoping that maybe there was something there so I tried to have Clockwork do a recovery. But of course, I have no recovery at all.

Anything I can do?

*** EDIT ***

Realized I wasn't using the ClockWork mentioned in this post, so I installed that, rebooted, mounted USB but now I only see my Ext SD. So, I put Beta4 there and Installed. I am now getting "Majic Value Mismatch". I guess this is better since many have this error, but not sure what to do especially since I don't have a backup. Probably need to go back to Factory Rom and start over, but not sure even if that is possible. HELP.
[G Tablet Android Development] jsergel3:
I see that on the device, and I see the previous files in the /mnt/emmc folder. But I still am not able to turn on the camera or download anything from a webiste because it gives me a message to input a SDCARD. and if I go to that /mnt/sdcard it says that the card is not mounted.
[G Tablet Android Development] nomad421:
@jsergel3; yes, this is the intended behavior. /mnt/sdcard now only points to legitimate storage if you have an external SDCard connected. The CM6b4 behavior is "right" insofar as it agrees with the mapping conventions of all of the android phones. However, this most recent changed convinced me to switch back to the zpad ROM. It makes the built in 16GB storage essentially useless for many purposes/applications. I'm not sure what the optimal mapping solution is for the GTablet, but I'm pretty sure this is not it. Otherwise, CM6b4 is looking great. However, zpad has come a long way since I switched to CM back at b2; especially with the performance pack . . . it flies!

If you have an external SDCard, and don't mind missing out on the internal 16GB for the time being, just use that (it will map to /mnt/sdcard). Otherwise, it might be worth it giving one of the other ROMs a go.

I have this installed and have some problems...

*I can't view my files when plugged into USB. It's looking for NVIDIA Harmony drivers.

*I can't access my microSD card within the "SD card & phone storage" menu. I just get an icon of a card with a !

Please help!
[G Tablet Android Development] dustya:
I had the same problem with the harmory driver issues, This is what i did.

Downloaded usbdeview nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.htm< wont let me make outside link

Delete anything that has to do with android and nvidia harmony

Dont let windows automatically reinstall these drivers you will be manually installing them

Download the sdk pack for android

developer.android.com/sdk/index.html<wont let me make outside link

extract that to your C:\

Then go to the folder you just extracted should be called android-sdk-windows

run SDK manager a window will auto pop up with some packaged on the left, to the right there is a accept all button click that and hit install.

Go make lunch or something this will take a bit.

Once that is done go back to the android-sdk-windows folder

in there you will now see USB_driver open that

android_winusb : here there is no driver for the g-tablet so we have to auto put it in. I attached the edited usb driver file you will need just copy and paste to the new file over the old one.

now go to device manager and look for your devices should have ! marks on them and right click update driver. Click I will find driver browse to your new usb file you created and install.

That should cure your driver issue with harmony
[G Tablet Android Development] _Schizm_:
@JDNYC - please see the post before yours for the SDCARD issue (yours is 102, read 101)
[G Tablet Android Development] _Schizm_:
Ok, this was driving me a little nuts as well, this is what I did to fix it:

- connect to the tablet with "adb shell"

- make the system folder writabele with:

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

- add a line to the vold.fstab file:

echo "dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2" >> /etc/vold.fstab

- exit from the shell

- adb reboot

May not be pretty, may not fit the standards for Android phones, but this is my tablet and I want my internal storage! :D
[G Tablet Android Development] thefredelement:
So if I do this I'll be able to plug in via USB and mount and go on about my business?
[G Tablet Android Development] _Schizm_:
Yep, and the change has made my tablet more stable. I had been getting several crashes/hour, especially in the browser, as well as having the device randomly turn off.

Hasn't done any of that since this change.

***Note: you may need to remove the previous line in the vold.fstab file that starts with "dev_mount sdcard "

Dagnabit (done in my best Yosemite Sam voice) - Hand to gad, as I type that my tab is more stable, it reboots... :mad:

Hi All!

Just picked up a gtab yesterday and wanted to get CM and Clockwork installed... I haven't been able to get a good tutorial/how to yet so just wondering what the steps are to get CW mod and then Cyanogen beta on it

Thanks in advance!
[G Tablet Android Development] raydog153:
It is real easy...

- First install clockworkmod, use version .8 floating around, not the one in this thread. V2.5.1.1 beta 8 i think

- Install by putting the update.zip file on the internal sd card, reboot, and it will get installed

- Download CM6.1b4, put zip file on internal sd card

- Boot into CW, install zip file

- Reboot into CM6.1

- Install gapps from thread

- Install market fix

- Install folio flash apk

Search threads here for detailed instructions on each step, there is a ton

You will then have CM6.1b4 installed, all rooted and everything

Angry Birds

I have this going fine with google apps and market working, and I am sure I can figure out the flash thing, but the Angry Birds game does not work. Now, originally I was running the original firmware and applied an experimental patch to get the video working correctly, but now even after getting the game installed (have to install after unmounting internal sd card) it seems I need to install the experimental drivers again, but when I run that update it borks (of course since its not meant for this rom) but I wonder if there is a way to do it?
[G Tablet Android Development] hailtothethief83:
Thanks a ton!! Worked perfect...

only issue I have now is that when I try to load flash player from the link in this thread and I plug my Gtab into the computer it does not recognize any memory on it or on my SD card so I can not unzip and move over to the tab. Any help would be great!

Thanks again!

EDIT: re read some posts earlier and sounds like I'm not the only one with the issue...
[G Tablet Android Development] raydog153:
Well I have angry birds running without the experimental drivers. Worked fine with CM6. Tried the experimental drivers, meant to look at the logcat with adb to see what the problem was but never did. I am sure someone will figure it out.

Has anyone found a way to get google voice working? Also did anyone notice gingerbread doesn't have any tablet specific features?
[G Tablet Android Development] short/y:
Gingerbread isn't the tablet release. You're thinking of 3.0.

As for Google Voice, do a search. I can't find the thread right off-hand but someone said that installing GV 0.3 lets you get it working then you can upgrade. I did that and it's working fine for me. There are other ways to do it but I found this to be the easiest. And, yes, they posted GV 0.3, too.

Help with nandroid

So I was able to install ClockwordMod and flash CM6.1b4. I made some modifications - added apps, tweak some of the settings and decided to take a nandroid backup.

After rebooting, the Gtab hangs on the A N D R O I D screen (before the CM boot animation).

Any help would be greatly appreciated... Feeling kind of exposed without a working backup/restore feature.
[G Tablet Android Development] _Schizm_:
What tweaks and apps?

You just said that you did a nandroid backup and then followed up with "without a working backup/restore feature", are you missing a different backup restore feature?

Have you tried going back into recovery and wiping all of the data and cache sections? Or reapplying CMb4?
[G Tablet Android Development] germanh:
I installed a few apps from market just to make sure it was working. I edited a few of the Cyanogen settings (mainly cosmetic). I then booted into recovery and did a nandroid backup (which gave a successful message).

I then exit recovery through reboot system - and it hangs on the ANDROID screen.

Oddly enough, a simple reboot works just fine. So i'm thinking it has something to do with CWM?

One more thing... I had taken a backup of the stock rom before moving to CMb4 and can restore to it just fine. Was wondering what would be different with this snapshot i'm taking. I'll try your suggestions and see if that fixes the restore.
[G Tablet Android Development] _Schizm_:
Which version of the CWM did you use? I had a similar problem when using the latest. Try the one that's listed in the first post of this thread.

Had you cleared the data and other caches after installing CMb4 the first time? That's always a requirement when putting a CM onto a previously un-CM'd device. However, a basic reboot shouldn't have fixed that either.

I'll squarely place blame on Murphy right now.
[G Tablet Android Development] raydog153:
NO do not, you will get mismatch magic number error, use .8 floating around somewhere....2.5.1.1 beta 8.....something like that
[G Tablet Android Development] germanh:
I am running CWM.8

I just find it odd, that doing a reboot works fine, but doing a nandroid backup and then rebooting causes it to hang. And even worse, restoring from the backup i just made doesn't work either... Arghhh
[G Tablet Android Development] raydog153:

flash back to stock

I have clockwork Mod and CynagenMod installed. No matter what I try, when I reboot, it will not recognize my external SD. When I installed clockwork Mod or CynagenMod...I am not sure which did it, I was no longer able to download to my internal memory. So I have to download everything to my external SD. But, I also cannot move anything from my external SD to my internal storage.

I would like to try other ROM's, but I cannot seem to install anything from my external SD.

Any suggestions would be of great help!

I would also like the option to reflash to the stock, but I have the same problem each time I download the files.

Another issue I am having is not being able to sideload apk's. When I connect the USB cord, the option to "Select to copy files" will not work.

Thanks,
[G Tablet Android Development] jayhammy:
Thanks for that. I managed to download directly from Cyan.'s site. However, CWM doesn't "see" the zip file on the root of my SDCARD so I can't flash it. Oddly, all of my other zips are there, but this one just doesn't appear.

EDIT: Nevermind. I just found out that we must install these zip files onto the EMMC internal memory, not the SDCARD. Strange because CWM actually says "install zip from sdcard" even though it isn't.

[G Tablet Android Development] _Schizm_:
Josh - Do you have a microSD card in the external slot? Mine had lots of issues without something mounted to /sdcard (the internal storage gets mounted to /emmc).

Without the external MicroSD, go back in this thread to remount the internal storage in that area. Though, you would need to undo that once you had an external MicroSD.
