I've currently running TNT lite 3.4.0. Is there a guide to get to this VEGAn-tab build??? Tried the same method as I did with TnT lite but no go...

thanks

[G Tablet Android Development] cscotty:
So Ive been running the VEGAn b3 all day today and its been working great. Thanks a lot. However, I just started using it again and the applications button (the button you press to list all your apps) does not want to respond. every other button works fine and swipes fine but that button does not.

Anyone else expreience this? Any quick fixes I should know about? I tried rebooting but it didnt help.

Thanks,

Scott

i had that battery issue the very first day i got the tab.

i charged it, it was at 100% but the light was still red. i unplugged it and started using it the whole day pretty much, then at around 40-50% it died outta nowhere. no warning, nothing. i had it plug it into AC to get it to even turn back on. this time i charged it all the way until the light was green, even though the battery meter said 100% for a while. now its fine. battery life lasts really long now. i got it to as low as 17% the other day.

only thing is that the percentage doesn't match up with the graphical display. at 50% battery life, the battery icon shows it at about 75% life. anyone else have this problem?

Just installed it. I'll test today to see if there are any differences between the two.
[G Tablet Android Development] tklotzii:
Thirds on the accelerometer issue (I did notice the battery thing now after looking too, shows 97% fully charged). I have to say thanks again to all working on this ROM. Hands down the best I have used so far, and is now my daily driver....
[G Tablet Android Development] jacindc:
yeah, my battery is stuck on 100% now.

And i suddenly have the new market. Is it getting pushed?
[G Tablet Android Development] greyspacealien:
Last night I saw my battery get down to about 50% and then stuck it on the chager lastnight, I have played with it on and off all day and it took a long time to get it to drop to 97% but in just about 15 minutes of use it jumped down to 93% and is holding. I just doesn't seem right, I remember a while back a conversation were they were talking about how the battery stayed way up and when it got down to about 40% it really started to drop at a normal rate. Wonder if this issue has come back.
[G Tablet Android Development] gotwillk:
anyone getting issues where things just don't install from market?

it will download and then just disappear. when you go back into the app page it will be like it never downloaded or installed. have to do multiple tries for it to "stick". sometimes i have to start the download and then immediately go back into the app page so i can actually see the download bar and then it will install. weird.
[G Tablet Android Development] ckelly33:
Is this the Root Explorer in market that is about $4 in the Market? Just want to be sure before dropping the dough!
[G Tablet Android Development] tklotzii:
I see it sometimes, generally when there is market issue. I just keep trying to install the app until it finally installs. I see this on my X too from time to time. Seems more lately thought with the new market tweaks and all...
[G Tablet Android Development] Alpha06:
there is root explorer lite which is free

p.s i had the 100% battery bug. Used the device till it died around 50%. Fully charged it, without wiping battery info via clockwork. Works fine now.

Robo Defense Lite

I installed VEGAn Beta 3 and now when i open up robo defense i have a problem. Before flashing new rom i was able to play this game on full screen of the tab.

After the new rom when i press on new game what comes up hardly covers up half the screen. What i was earlier able to play on full screen now comes up only on half a screen.

Anybody else has this problem? Any solution will be appreciated.

Update : I uninstalled and reinstalled the game couple of times but still have the same problem
[G Tablet Android Development] ckelly33:
Dang! It doesnt show up in my market. Does ES File Explorer (or anything else) work? Astro?
[G Tablet Android Development] Saurabh:
Toggle the compatibility mode under "SpareParts" application, reboot and try again.
[G Tablet Android Development] radfreak:
Anyway we can get the hulu hack built into the rom?
[G Tablet Android Development] katmandu421:
Flash version?

What version of Flash works with Beta3? I have tried every one in my arsenal including the gles optimized but nothing is seeming to work.
[G Tablet Android Development] New2Android:
Thanks saurabh that did it.
[G Tablet Android Development] anlog:
GLES works fine on mine, though it can get slow after awhile of browsing.
[G Tablet Android Development] roebeet:
Flash works fine for me(?). The normal gles one we've been using - just tested cnn.com.

Anyone having issue home home button on VEGAn beta3???

Neither my soft or hard home button will bring me to home page...

sorry if this is an ignorant question, thanks for the help!!!
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
Roebeet, you are back.. So were your Apple fanboy friends impressed?
[G Tablet Android Development] jacindc:
Flash has always worked for me, until Beta 3. Had to reinstall Flash & reboot, and now it's fine. Probably a result of not doing a data wipe between beta 2 and 3.
[G Tablet Android Development] heeae:
Reboot ur machine
[G Tablet Android Development] anlog:
So far so good... After an hour or so of usage both battery meters dropped to 98%, then to 94% shortly after that. As stated in another post, maybe the system just needs one full charge and use of the battery to get "reset".
[G Tablet Android Development] zerozed99:
I installed b3 last night; I had some initial problems with the NEW market. I reverted back to the "old" market and everything stabilized. I used the tablet intermittently today without incident. Now, at around 6 p.m. I go to turn it on and I couldn't get past the lock screen. I booted a number of times and finally got in by some magic pressing I suppose, but the entire screen is 100% unresponsive although the soft buttons still work! Oh, this is after I wiped cache and dalvik and reflashed the ROM in an attempt to get past the lockscreen issue.

I'm going to just do another datawipe and reinstall. There is definitely something odd going on. I'm thinking it has to do with the ROM, but there's no telling. Or it could be "user error" somehow, I suppose.
[G Tablet Android Development] helfrez:
I had some issues in beta1, but I realized that my problem was some nonstock partitions. The give-a-way was when I tried to do a wipe/reset from clockwork, I got an error trying to wipe the data partitition. I dropped back and did a full device restore via nvflash, to bring back all of the bone stock partitions and setting, and moved forward from there. I haven't had any problem since. Worked for me, you're problem could be elsewhere, but mine was with a bad/corrupt data partition. My menu and Home keys wouldnt work.
[G Tablet Android Development] anlog:
Testing out a free app called "Wi-Fi Keep Alive". Reviews are good. Out of the box (with no workarounds enabled) the wi-fi stil turns off about 10 mins after the tab is put to sleep. Testing the various workarounds now.
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
That's strange. I listened to internet radio last night for about 2 hours and my wifi never stopped. All the weird issues people are having is making me wonder if there may not be more than 1 hardware set. Mine is one of the very first and I don't have the problems.
[G Tablet Android Development] anlog:
I'm sure that certain apps will keep wi-fi going in the background. The Wi-Fi Keep Alive app is supposed to basically do the same thing, minus the fancy music and additional battery drain.
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
I was kind of referring to some of the comments that said even though wifi was set to stay on always in the settings some people were seeing it turn off.
[G Tablet Android Development] insight3fl:
I think I spoke premature... this version of BP only shows increments of 10% so I think that is why the stock meter and the BP meter are different at each point when it crosses over 90, 80, 70 etc. sorry!
[G Tablet Android Development] anlog:
We are both on the same page. As far as I know, everyone using VEGAn has their wi-fi automatically turn off about 10 minutes after the tab goes to sleep, regardless of the system setting. The theory is that certain (not all) apps will keep the data stream going (streaming music, etc), so that it keeps wi-fi on even after the screen shuts off.
[G Tablet Android Development] anlog:
I have the pro version and it shows specific percentages (93%, 84%, etc). Definitely doesn't jump in 10% increments for me.
[G Tablet Android Development] MDMTahiti:
I have flashed my gtab with tntlite and that was quite easy and really helped the gtab. So I followed the same instructions and flashed with the VegaN. It boots up and asks me to "touch the android" and never goes any further. Now what do I do? Help!
[G Tablet Android Development] prscott1:
You can bypass the android setup screen by touching the 4 corners of the black area of the screen. start in upper left and go clockwise.
[G Tablet Android Development] rob_z11:
I want my tablet to sleep when I hit power button for the maximum use of the battery. I am not sure why some wants to keep the battery on while laptop sleeps.

I have evo 4g running fresh rom, and one of the HTC kernel while back had the best policy in which phone drained like 3% battery overnight.

I don't have anything that my tablet needs to wake-up to get update. I want the most Milage out of the single charge.
[G Tablet Android Development] rob_z11:
Mine must be pro version as well since it is incrementing in no particular increments.
[G Tablet Android Development] Frankie Gaspacho:
Thanks for the response. That makes sense... I had figure it was related to flash. I will keep an eye out for it. Thanks again
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
The four corner trick works but are you using the latest beta? Beta3 removed that screen at startup.

'New market' search incomplete....

Hi. No problem installing the new android market, but searching doesn't find many apps I know exist. Any thoughts why that might be so?

Thanks much. Only problem I've seen yet with great build.

Thanks for the little program to see if I can really reduce my tablet CPU to hardly breath and save the battery while it sleeps, but bring the performance back when it wakes up.
[G Tablet Android Development] TheTruth:
Absolutely loving the animations! Makes the device "look" snappier, if that makes sense?

...ran into some serious problems with stability... wiped cache and fixed permissions, back to stable
[G Tablet Android Development] Alpha06:
I believe the new market was not included in Beta 3 for this reason...too many issues popping up

edit: viewsonics twitter feed says gpl info and updates coming soon...they are interested in keeping this thing alive...which is good news eh? :)
[G Tablet Android Development] dingoberries:
Holly jebus,

Thank you for this great rom! Everything works even with HP mini keyboard with built in mouse pad. Does anyone notice this vegan has built-in quickoffice? I think I'm going to take this vegan tab to microcenter to show it to the apple folks.:)

I can't seem to be able to scroll in gmail via the web browser in landscape mode. Portrait mode works fine. Can anyone else check to see if they can replicate it?

I noticed quickoffice free was on there and immediately removed it. Both the free and pro versions crash with 70% of my documents (especially excel). Documents to Go is far better IMO.

android.process.acore force close

I started getting this error today. It is happening pretty frequently. What is the best way to solve this issue on the gtablet? I am using .03 beta vegan and do have gmail, email, and facebook. They were set to sync.
[G Tablet Android Development] anlog:
Possible wifi keepalive. Testers needed.

I might have found a way to keep wifi up even in sleep mode. Download and install "Wi-Fi Keep Alive" from the market (free). In the settings choose always on, and in the advanced options select workarounds 3 AND 4.
[G Tablet Android Development] aaron19953:
so, i decided to be bold, and go with vegan beta 3 right on top of my old tnt 2.2?

Works like a champ !!! haha

Only thing is, can i add the dialer back in ?? I use sipdroid and would prefer to have the "phone" icon popup above a contacts name.

I managed to keep Pandora running with screen off for over 90 mins with the keepalive, when it would normally crap out within 10 mins of turning off the screen. Gonna keep testing.
[G Tablet Android Development] anlog:
Slowdown after awhile

After additional testing I don't think the slowdown is related to flash. I uninstalled flash and still got the slowdwn after a while. A reboot fixes it.

I don't see how utils like CPU tuner would help, since the vegan kernel's CPU governor is read only. I tested it and it did nothing. The app even stated that the kernel was unsupported after running the check test.
[G Tablet Android Development] gotwillk:
using overclock widget works. sorta. you can underclock and also be able to set the min to 1000000. set the max to 1000000 and you sorta have the governor set to Performance. not sure if its actually set though. if the kernel is read only, then nothing changed and its all just a dream. lol

is there any chance of an unlocked kernel in the future for this tab?
[G Tablet Android Development] anlog:
Yes, the kernel is locked. The app doesn't have access to change the governor. It works with cyanogen builds, though.
[G Tablet Android Development] veritek:
I gotta say, I just switched from TnT 2.2 to VEGAn Beta 3 and I'm loving the switch. It just seems to run smoother and I seem to be getting less odd "force stop" errors.

Good work!
[G Tablet Android Development] Frozen001:
I am loving the VEGAn ROM. Installed it after about 1 hour of use with the stock TNT ROM. I get the Orange Bar along the top of the screen in the calendar, and there are some minor things that I wish were different, but over all NICE JOB GUYS. I don't mind tweaking the G-Tab, but man you can tell Viewsonic rushed this to market. IMO TNT should be trashed. In it's current state it is not customizable enough to be worth keeping. I really like Launcher Pro...

Here is a question... If Viewsonic or whomever is controlling the source code releases it, what are the chances of a purely custom ROM being put together specifically for the G-Tab? Don't get me wrong the ported ROMS blow the stock out of the water, but one made just for the GTAB would be perfect.

Issues with market

I was on CM6.1B4, all working ok but wanted to check out this vegan ROM since it is getting so much traction. I installed vegan beta 3. Tried the market fix, got the error, rebooted, waited over 5 mins, nothing. Tried this over and over. Love the ROM except it is worthless without the market.

I keep getting 'Network Error, please try again' in the market. Yes wifi is on and working, I can browse the web, download from the web. Once in a while get the market to show a couple apps and download them. But for the most part the market errors and/or is empty.

Here is the stuff I tried. I did a data/cache wipe on ROM install. I also tried a data/cache wipe 2 more times. I have tried the market fix over and over. Sometime I do not get the market error (the expected one). I tried the new market, with the market fix. I have used just the settings app to do the market wipe, and also tried Titanium Backup, also tried both togther. I also repartitioned the internal card to 2048/256 which some people said fixes download errors in the market. No diff.

Someone please help, what am I doing wrong, why am I getting the network error. Everything worked fine with CM6.1, so I know the hardware is good, does the rom wifi support 802.11b/g/n?

What are the exact steps from ROM install or data/cache wipe to get market up and running? Mine were to wipe, boot, add gmail account, open market, do market fix, reboot, no luck.
[G Tablet Android Development] zerozed99:
You need to use a program like Root Explorer. It will allow you to Mount Read/Write (RW); this allows you to actually *change* stuff (e.g. delete and edit system files). Make sure that after you delete the files you Mount Read Only (RO) afterwards.
[G Tablet Android Development] wiredmonkey:
What's with the screen constantly changing from landscape to portrait? I have my Gtab flat on the desk, and suddenly the screen changes to portrait for no reason.
[G Tablet Android Development] prscott1:
Do you have clockwork recovery installed? If so, go into recovery and wipe the cache, then reboot.

If you don't have clockwork installed, then download one of the apps that does cache cleanup (like cachemate) and then clear all the cache and reboot.

That might help.
[G Tablet Android Development] zerozed99:
I was getting this too; nothing helped (tried clearing all the cache to no avail). Ended up just reflashing the ROM. I've actually had to reflash the rom a couple of times to fix problems. I finally got around to repartioning--I'm hoping that was the culprit.

I really like the look of VEGAn, but there's a reason it's still in beta. Based on my limited experience, the TnTLite rom was far less prone to problems. That's not to say everyone on VEGAn is going to have problems...YMMV. I'm curious what issues the devs are working on for the next release.
[G Tablet Android Development] stickerbob:
This is a great ROM so far! Thanks so much!
[G Tablet Android Development] suzook:
I'm hoping the are working on the top bar makin it a tad smaller, and using higher res icons....they look terrible. I'm not complaining...love the rom..just sayin
[G Tablet Android Development] Acturbo:
You could install a different launcher and hide the notification bar to get you by thats what I do. You just swype down on the screen to bring it back.........
[G Tablet Android Development] techtech:
everything work fine but it reboot by itself all the time when i go to flash website.anyone has same problem.??
[G Tablet Android Development] Acturbo:
Ive had it happen a few times when installed directly over Beta 2. Did you try wiping data and cache? After doing that it only done it once.
[G Tablet Android Development] rcgabriel:
raydog - I can't be certain because you didn't explain exactly, step-by-step, what you have been doing for the market fix.

I have done it at least 20 times now as I have installed many ROMs, flashed, wiped, etc. So I can say with some authority that it works on VEGAn ROM and on ZTab ROM, the two ROMs I have principally used.

Allow me to walk you through the steps again:

1) Make sure you've run market so it's in the running apps list.

2) Go to Settings->Applications->Running and scroll down to Market and click on it.

3) Click on "Clear Cache". Then click on "Force Stop". (DO NOT click on "clear data" here)

4) Go back to the application list and scroll up to Google Framework Services. Click on it.

5) Click on "Clear Data". Then click on "Force Stop".

6) Now go back to your app list and run Market. You will get an error as market tries to start up here. I have gotten this error every single time I have done the above steps. If you don't get an error here, you did something wrong in the above steps.

7) Now reboot your G Tablet.

8) After it starts up, make sure you've given it a few seconds for wifi to successfully reconnect, and make sure you are in a spot with a decent wifi connection - a weak wifi connection will sometimes screw this up and force you to reboot again.

9) Now start up Market. It should be fixed. If it errors out again, it was unable to connect to Google's Market servers. Try rebooting and repeating. I have only ever observed a repeat of the error from before reboot.

If you have done these 9 steps exactly and you still have an unpopulated Market, and you wiped and repartitioned like you said after using CyanogenMod, then I am sort of stuck on ideas, since this has worked for me every time.
[G Tablet Android Development] gotwillk:
seems like you're doing everything right. what i did was, wipe data/cache 2x, wipe cache 2x, wipe dalvik cache 2x. then flash the vegan b3. boot up.

here's where i do it differently from you, i skip adding the gmail acct.

i let it boot all the way, then i add my wifi first before doing anything. then i do the market fix. reboot. try market again and it will ask you to add gmail acct, here's where i add it. market works fine. download titanium and proceed to restore apps.

camera problem

Ok this is weird, but just now I started my gtab and I loaded the camera application to take a picture. When I snap a picture, it doesn't appear in the gallery. Any ideas?
[G Tablet Android Development] Acturbo:
I installed Tasker since I have it on my phone. So far Pandora has been going for half hour, nor problems yet, I'm going to test it further and see how long it will go.

Just set it so that when screen is off, Wifi is on, and when Pandora is open Wifi is on. Will let you know how it works out.

My tablet was in sleepmode all night, and just turn it up five minutes ago, and my quadrant score was 591. There is something is happening which is causing poor performance onec it is awake.

Before running the Quadrant Program with all the default settings, I tried few things such as email, browser and stock ticker, and then I ran the program.

Any thoughts?

Ran the test again after 10 mins, and still no better.. Just got the score of 626..
[G Tablet Android Development] roebeet:
try killing all the extra stuff in memory, first. I usually do that before I run Quandrant as a rule (and as a baseline).

Try "OverclockWidget", in the market. Need to fiddle with the settings a bit (1Ghz max) but it might help.
[G Tablet Android Development] anlog:
I tried CPU tuner but it said the governor was locked. No way to modify the settings. You're saying overclock widget works?
[G Tablet Android Development] rothnic:
I wonder if they're is some type of residual left over from another rom causing this. I've been running vegan as long as anyone and never had this issue. However, I did have it in zpad.
