Question - Just installed 3.0 on a freshly purchased GTab... Sometimes when the unit is sleeping, and you press the power button, it will do one of three things - sleep/awaken the screen (good), bring up the power options (OK, but not perfect), or nothing at all (which means that I have to long press twice to get it to reboot).

Is this just my unit, or is there something else that I am not aware of??

Thanks
[G Tablet Android Development] rothnic:
Yeah I haven't seen that issue. I rebooted many times while testing without problems. Anyone else getting that issue?

/dev/block/mmcblk3p2 is /data, like the next line implies. It sounds like you may have one of the dreaded random boot loops. Have you done the sdcard repartition yet at all? Most people need it once after getting the tab.

Yeah, we generally get all 3 of those cases on all the ROMs. I will test tonight to make sure it isn't happening worse than the rest.
[G Tablet Android Development] whosloosin92:
Mine has always done this...
[G Tablet Android Development] thebadfrog:
The advanced menu in clockwork. Repartition to 2048 and 0
[G Tablet Android Development] hailtothethief83:
Thank you! Will give it a go right now
[G Tablet Android Development] hailtothethief83:
Thank you both Rothnic and thebadfrog

repartitioning worked like a charm!!
[G Tablet Android Development] rothnic:
Great, that seems similar to getting chickenpox. Everyone gets it at some point, but after getting through it, it usually never comes back. At least it hasn't for me.
[G Tablet Android Development] thebadfrog:
Rothnic and the boys do all the hard work. I just pass information.

@Rothnic.....This may be my favorite rom. Love the file manager and the minimalistic look.....nice work
[G Tablet Android Development] DrDr3z85:
Well Said.... Will give this rom ago in 5 minutes

Thanks for your support.
[G Tablet Android Development] darkness77:
Just finished installing this. I like the look and feel and no problems so far. Gonna play around with it some more during my lunch break.
[G Tablet Android Development] ttlycnfuzd:
OK... no worries... i tries a quick search in this thread and didn't find anything, but maybe I needed to search more... :)

Thanks.. ROM looks good BTW
[G Tablet Android Development] hailtothethief83:
HAHA, I guess it was time... had a lot of old stuff on the SDcard any ways. Now I just got to get all the good stuff back on it!
[G Tablet Android Development] ItsDon:
Add me to the list of believers/converts. Came from TNTLite3.1.3 with all the hacks to make it lag free to this rom. The previous comments from other folks are true, this rom is really really fast (really). I pulled several 2500+ quadrants in a row. It's not just the number either, it feels fast, like a sports car.

I also have an Evo and this tablet now is simply a gigantic Evo without the phone or kickstand. I have it set up to look and work just like my Evo - very nice.

I know this is still a fresh rom and changes / bug fixes are in the works so I'll list a few of the bugs I've found so far in case they've not been mentioned yet.

- "No service" displays initially upon wake up (obviously a phone based rom!)

- Rom FC's when trying to assign a notification sound to unread emails

- Tablet has powered down by itself a few times after I set it to sleep

- Voice Search still FC's for me even after reinstalling it from Market

Please don't take these as knocks on the rom, they are minor and I know will be addressed in the future, just putten' 'em out there in case they weren't already known. I'll keep shaking the cage and see what else pops loose but as it stands now, it's a stellar product. Thanks Rothnic & Co.

Just finished installing after full data/cache wipe and reinstalled apps from Titanium. After installing Adobe Flash both stock brower and Xscope crashes with Flash sites i.e. Hulu. I uninstalled Flash, rebooted, installed from Market but still same issue. Any ideas? Thanks.

Update: Uninstalled Flash, rebooted, fixed by installing backup from Titanium App only (no data)
[G Tablet Android Development] jneidlinger:
I've tried absolutely everything to get this installed. Previously had Vegan B4 installed. Did a full re-partition, and formats. Wiped cache and user data. Install never gets past the "G-TABDEVS" screen. Let it sit for over 25 minutes and never did anything.

Vegan installs fine...
[G Tablet Android Development] artisticcheese:
Would be good to have battery percentage available on taskbar like in VeganTab
[G Tablet Android Development] ItsDon:
I use Battery Indicator from the Market. Works great with this rom. Puts a small digital indicator in the taskbar.
[G Tablet Android Development] ketty_yijun:
google voice search doesn't work even i upgrade from market.
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
In clockwork re-partition your sdcard to 2048, and 0 swap. Under the advanced tab. It will erase whatever you have on there so if you have important stuff mount usb storage in clockwork and move it to your pc first.
[G Tablet Android Development] life02:
same problem here
[G Tablet Android Development] lamlam01:
I can also confirm that this is happening on my g tab running Zpad v3.0.
[G Tablet Android Development] rothnic:
Will work on that, i might have missed a library file.
[G Tablet Android Development] pc2828:
+1, found workaround by using SwiftKey or Smartkeyboard via voice input; somehow in stock keyboard when using Voice Search does not have voice input?
[G Tablet Android Development] jneidlinger:
Also went ahead and attempted the same steps with the last TnT Lite. Everything went perfect. Tried again with this ZPad release, stuck on the G-TABDEVS screen like before. Its almost as if something is missing that makes the install fails when installing onto a completely clean sdcard.
[G Tablet Android Development] Muscleboy:
cw zpad w gtab boot loader intact

Where is the zpad cw install pack for do? First message?
[G Tablet Android Development] heeae:
OK, this time reflashing the machine with 1202 (the earliest rom I have) with V.8 recovery.img in this forum.

But boot to recovery, selecting zpad 3.0, it throw assert fail in boot.img (status code = 7), have I update my recovery to any other version ?
[G Tablet Android Development] darkness77:
Well I like the build so far the one problem I came across was that it didn't wake up for about a minute. I had to hold the power button for 4 - 5 secs and then power it back up. Still playing around while helping customers =)
[G Tablet Android Development] lamlam01:
Would the Vegan GSensor fix work on the ZTab v3.0 ROM?

I applied the fix via a CWM and it works fine.
[G Tablet Android Development] Turbo4V:
Having the same issue here too, happened twice so far (wouldn't wake from sleep). Other than that, seems really stable!

I have noticed that it starts to act oddly at first, where if you try to put it to sleep, it fades to black, but then immediately turns back on. After a while, it just won't turn back on again without a long press.
[G Tablet Android Development] darkness77:
I dont know if this is the cause of it bit I was able to recreate the not "wake up"

Seems to happen when you click on the power button to leave it on stand by.

Sometimes it wakes up but sometimes it doesn't do anything. I will see if it does the same if the screen is set to shut off by itself.
[G Tablet Android Development] darkness77:
Yup it does it as well when the screen shuts off by itself.
[G Tablet Android Development] rothnic:
It happened to me a couple times last night, I've replaced a few files tonight and I can't get it to happen again. I'll keep testing.

Edit: Going to eat and will see if it comes back when I get home. So far so good, I think it was related to missing a couple of those necessary google libraries.
[G Tablet Android Development] Muscleboy:
Anyone happen to know why the Russian reader pulse is exactly 2 squares over the left of where you press?

Trying 1222 faster and more stable than vegan.
[G Tablet Android Development] brentslim:
This happened to me the first time, then all I did was reinstall it and it booted up fine and I have had no problems sense.
[G Tablet Android Development] brentslim:
That I'm not sure about but the UI on it is amazing. I might just reinstall tnt lite to find out. I didn't think about it until I installed zpad clean :)
[G Tablet Android Development] brentslim:
One other thing...anyway to get dsp manager to work on here? I have installed but doesn't seem to change anything.
[G Tablet Android Development] rothnic:
The stock TnT music app is included. At a quick glance it cannot be used in anything else easily. I will try to track down the stock zpad one which I think is the best tablet music app i've seen.
[G Tablet Android Development] brentslim:
Yeah that would be awesome if u could track that down. Thx
[G Tablet Android Development] it2steve:
Riothnic, as expected excellent work. All went on smooth and flawless the first time. Question, am I missing where the ethernet settings are? Settings, wireless and network? Nothing there.

Sent from my Zpad flavored Gtab...
[G Tablet Android Development] akh96:
Best ROM yet.....thanx devs!

I tried TNT enhanced and TNTlite 3.1.2 before this, but Zpad 3.0 is the fastest and most stable by far. Works great with Launcher Pro and GB icons really make it pop visually.

I did get used to default TnT split KB, though.

Thanks for a great effort.
[G Tablet Android Development] rothnic:
Not sure how well it works, one person said it was missing some of their music. But this is something to try. You probably have to push this via ADB to /system/app.

Zpad Music: http://www.multiupload.com/YTL6JR6CQH

Edit: Seems to work fine with my music.
[G Tablet Android Development] brentslim:
Thx ill give it a try.
[G Tablet Android Development] eppyramot:
I added cifsManager from market and I added shares to my media on my PC. Added favorite links in the new File Manager which is awesome. I can stream media flawlessly from my PC perfectly now. I love this ROM and now have no more tears for selling my iPad on eBay to get the g-tab (even with the inferior screen). After battling jail-breaking an iPad for 7 months to get minimum functionality it is a pleasure to be fully Android enabled.
[G Tablet Android Development] rcgabriel:
Its so true eppyramot - my experience with my iphone was the same. The Nexus One is a joy in comparison because I dont have a battle everytime apple releases a new update, dont have to carefully reject the update everytime I sync, no jailbreak/root/unlock cycle. And now that our roms are getting very stable and good things just work on G tab too.
[G Tablet Android Development] sincerity:
Love this rom but one problem....each time after boot screen will randomly go black and device is unresoonsive to power button for roughly a minute or two...then it will finally reboot...any ideas?

Also the speaker wont output sometimes and requires a reboot
[G Tablet Android Development] akh96:
Missing Market Updater?

I noticed that Market Updater is missing...is that really needed?

Also, Magic Smoke Live Wallpaper is a no-go on my Gtab.

Hi Rothnic:

I tried to load your Zpad ROM V3.0 using CWM 0.8 and ran into the assert failed problem pointing to the boot.img file. The very same problem also existed on VEGAn Beta5 and gojimi had pointed to a compression problem in the boot.img file and he fixed it this morning after I pointed out to him. Please see this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10221780&postcount=421

I wonder if your boot.img file had a similar compression issue perhaps?

Thanks
[G Tablet Android Development] ItsDon:
Anyone else have no system sounds from their G-Tab with this rom? Mine FC's anytime I try set a notification sound (new email etc.).
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
I had it installed and it worked fine. I am playing musical roms right now but if you don't do a factory reset, and cache wipe when going from rom to rom weird things like that happen.

Zpad uses a different lots of things from TnT, or Vega. So likely there are artifacts from different roms causing you trouble.
[G Tablet Android Development] ttlycnfuzd:
Favor please... Can someone post the browser.apk? was playing with files and forgot to backup the original. now I have no factory browser... :(

TIA!

Edit - Nevermind.... unyaff-ed the system.img and got it there... :)

EDIT 2 - OK... now back to the same problem... here's my situation. I was trying to play with an updated Flash to get the browser to stop closing (not force closing, just closing), but now the browser force closes all the time... is there any other fixes that I could try to get flash on the stock browser?
[G Tablet Android Development] sincerity:
Reinstalled everything after a wipe and music played fine....xlcame back few hrs later...no sound...driving me nuts
[G Tablet Android Development] tom108:
I have had the black screen issue twice now. I have to force a reboot by holding the power button for 10seconds. This install is a fresh one after a new nvflash and wipes before and after the rom flash.
[G Tablet Android Development] MisterKrispy:
Im having this issue too. Is it widespread or sporadic?
[G Tablet Android Development] MisterKrispy:
Mind sharing those libraries and how you loaded them? Its driving me nuts.

Any one have the search term for voice search in market to replace the borked voice search? Been using 1222 for a while now easily the best of all. Still testing though.
[G Tablet Android Development] duchski:
Either I botched my install or 3.0's www browsing is a big step back compared to 2.2. First of all there is no tabbed browsing anymorein 3.0 Second, the search results pages for url bar searches are misformated. Third, on some websites some buttons do not work at all. Like in this forum where I could't post a comment at all. Am I the only one with these problems?

PS. Does anyone have the apk's for the 2.2 browser and google updated voice search?
[G Tablet Android Development] brentslim:
Well mine doesn't ever want to wake up from sleep, it just reboots?? Anyone else having this issue? Oh and can't wait for g sensor fix need it bad :)
[G Tablet Android Development] it2steve:
I've noticed it more than normal as well. Fortunally, rebooting doesn't take long. Again, I know that we are all playing with dev versions and that's the beauty of it, we post issues and someone tries to fix them.

market install woes

The new market doesnt install ANYthing. gives error about no space. sd mounted or not. had to revert to old market using titanium. Id like to use new market. i have my partitioning set to 4gb. any workaround?
[G Tablet Android Development] sincerity:
Lol had same issue...3.0 was really bughy for me...went back to vegan for now. Nothing even comes close to the zpad battery life tho
[G Tablet Android Development] thebadfrog:
You need to partition your sdcard to 2048 and 0. If you don't you will start having other problems later as well
[G Tablet Android Development] iammuze:
gtalk

Has gtalk been removed? why?
[G Tablet Android Development] rothnic:
Yes, that is correct. 4096 is not recommended by anyone, seems to cause this problem.

Only a subset of the gapps are installed just to save space. The ones that aren't included are available in market.
[G Tablet Android Development] Muscleboy:
I am waiting for a response on how to fix voice search cannot find voice search in market and at least 2 people asked for it and the messages were deleted from this thread.
[G Tablet Android Development] thebadfrog:
Maybe they were moved from the development thread to the general thread. Moderators don't generally delete threads unless they are linked to warez or if they flame someone. The devs in this forum don't have the power to delete msgs, only the XDA moderators. These guys are working on these roms on their own time for the benefit of us. Positive feedback and steps to recreate a bug is more likely to get something fixed

Maybe do the market fix a few times. I had to do it 3 times to get launcher pro to show. I don't understand why but thats the way it worked.
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
If your market is showing everything it shows up by just searching Voice Search. I can see it in my market... So maybe try the market fix again. And if it still does not show you may need to change the fingerprint in the build.prop file.
[G Tablet Android Development] rothnic:
Well here is a response just to you since you can't read or search on your own.

Like I said the day after I released this, i know of these issues, and I'm going to try to address them in the next version. I have been working on other things, such as the galaxy tab email app coupled with new years festivities. I'm sorry you feel that I am part of some conspiracy to cover up that voice search is FCing.

For now, just remove it so it doesn't FC.

adb shell rm /system/app/VoiceSearch.apk
[G Tablet Android Development] tom108:
For the record my voice search works. And I used it to create this post. I have not had 1 force close since it updated from the market.
[G Tablet Android Development] theimpaler747:
Thread cleaned; please keep it friendly and on topic. Thank you.
[G Tablet Android Development] rothnic:
Could you tell me if you are using the gingerbread keyboard, or did you install an alternative? Trying to narrow down the issue.
[G Tablet Android Development] akh96:
So close, I got to the "Voice Recognition" setup screen on Voice Search before the FC...I am using TnT keyboard, btw.

this was after downloading VS 2.2.1 from the Market, and wiping data on it and the Google Framework.
[G Tablet Android Development] Muscleboy:
Excellent. I just cant seem to get voicesearch on market. Literally just about anything but that lol.
[G Tablet Android Development] akh96:
If I knew how to upload the apk, I would if it wasn't breaking a rule
[G Tablet Android Development] rothnic:
What would people rather have? The gingerbread keyboard with no voice search loaded on by default, or voice search loaded and the TnT keyboard?

With GB keyboard and voice search loaded on..even when using TnT..that is what is causing the FC's.
[G Tablet Android Development] akh96:
Well, I have no opinion, as I am a noob to Android....is the default zpad clean 3.0 keyboard the GB one?

I only have the Zpad clean 3.0 default KB and TnT KB installed, and tried voice search with one or the other being active.

Using Titanium to wipe data gets me further along....should I try a cache wipe in CWM?

ETA: alright, I just reread your post...GB KB is the default, and as the default it conflicts somehow with VS.

Would it be possible for folks to install GB KB over the TnT KB after flashing the ROM and still have VS?

I vote for working VS, with my Rave KB (TnT).
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
I don't use the GB keyboard so removing it would be ok with me. I install Thumb Keyboard.
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
Actually the biggest issue with Zpad right now for me is the power button. If I press it to put the display to sleep it won't wake back up. Have to hold the button down and reboot. I just did a Nvflash recovery and am getting ready to put Zpad back on. At least that way I have a clean system to work from.

I know you said something about some files you were playing with to maybe fix this. How is that going?
[G Tablet Android Development] JohnShaft69:
market

So...

just to clarify... The fix for the new market is to change my partition from 4gb to 2gb? that seems bizzarre. any other way to fix? i can do command level if there is another alternative. If not, then how would i back up the partitions, re partition, and copy back the data??
[G Tablet Android Development] ItsDon:
I use Smart Keyboard Pro and the voice works fine (from within the keyboard) but VS will FC if I start it by itself. SKP is a rockin' good keyboard with this rom, just adjust the key height in the settings and it takes up half the screen with big buttons which is perfect for me.
[G Tablet Android Development] thebadfrog:
If you don't repartition to 2048 and 0 you will have other problems later....boot looping...force closes. Backup all your data with Titanium Backup, put the backup on a usb flash drive, repartiton, restore from titanium and your good to go.
[G Tablet Android Development] thebadfrog:
It may be a pain but maybe release a rom with both options but I can see how that would cause problems later. Or just make the rom with working voice search and a supplement to add the gingerbread keyboard.

BTW, I prefer the Gingerbread keyboard but I may be in the minority about voice search
[G Tablet Android Development] tom108:
GB keyboard.
[G Tablet Android Development] JohnShaft69:
zooming/scaling removed?

Thanks for the help guys. I will use titanium to correct my setup. One more question. I have been using the zpad roms bc it had the app inside of the settings that would allow you to SCALE or ZOOM old apps to psuedo full screen, or at least double sized and centered instead of quarter screen size. I cannot find this control in the 3.0 rom. Is it possible to restore that nugget, or am i just missing its location? BC frankly, It is what made this rom stand apart from ALL OTHER ROMS.

I dare say, that if it cannot be restored, I may eternally use the 2.2 rom, as I have an enormous amount of old android apps that I like to use that only take up a quarter of the screen without this feature.
[G Tablet Android Development] coolking2k:

[G Tablet Android Development] Muscleboy:

Excellent.. with zpad/1222? Others wrote me it still fails with the update. I cannot test yet because it will not show in market.
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
Still haven't found it?

Send me a PM with your e-mail and I will send the one I just downloaded from the market.
[G Tablet Android Development] Muscleboy:
Titanium backup is great and almost fool proof.
[G Tablet Android Development] Muscleboy:
Thanks good point that it should always remain friendly. That was my point; at least what I was trying to make..that we are all here to help. its too one sided for me and too much about things it should not be about... and I think deleting posts should be avoided. It was selective deleting. But you guys run things however you want. I don't care anymore.
[G Tablet Android Development] nozirev:
I found a typo in the build.prop file that was keeping the entire market from showing. The market fingerprint had passion spelled "pasion". I corrected this typo and then stopped and cleared the cache for the market and google services. After the reboot I had the full market.
[G Tablet Android Development] Muscleboy:
gingerbread keyboard/froyo and voicesearch

OK I worked on it a bit and managed to get the above combo shown in subject line working just a bit differently. At least it gives people the option to keep the gb keyboard (charcoal coloured thinner keys w extra keys). Just go to setup for the kb and put microphone in kb and use rather than google search mic button.
[G Tablet Android Development] JohnShaft69:
