Not sure if this matters anymore since beta 4 has some volume fixes, but I believe I've pinpointed the mute bug in beta 3. If you power the device off while in silent mode (under settings -> sound) the bug will appear the next time you power on. You have to disable silent mode and restart the tab to fix it.

video on ZeroPunctuation

I am running the current Vega firmware (which is awesome) on a Viewsonic G tablet. I have installed the Adobe Flash player, and I can view Youtube videos just fine.

However, when I go to Zero Punctuation (which I can't post a link for, apparently, but Google "Zero Punctuation" and you'll find it), the video looks like a block of garbled text (which I assume is the un-decoded data).

Any suggestions on what I should do to be able to view Zero Punctuation? If this is not the best place to ask, feel free to tell me a more appropriate place to ask.

Thanks.
[G Tablet Android Development] GTablet:
Where did you download the new Market.apk from?
[G Tablet Android Development] comhack:
It works fine on my tablet running VEGAn beta 3 with XScope browser, even in fullscreen. So maybe it is the browser you are using that is giving you the issues.
[G Tablet Android Development] cutterjohn:
I really can't understand why they don't ship with a pinhole over the RESET button from the factory. After all they didn't bother to cost reduce by removing it, so why not provide acces to it w/o having to take apart the thing.

(Of course it's always amusing that the engrish manual says something about disconnecting the batt if it gets wet, then later tell you not to take the tablet apart... whole manual is full of various hilarities... These guys need to work on things like this when they sell Chinese products re-badged... at least expend the effort to Anglicize(and correct) the manual...)
[G Tablet Android Development] bblackmoor:
I see garbled text (rather than the ZeroPunctuation video) in the Android Browser, Dolphin HD, and LastPass browser. The market does not appear to have an app called "XScope". Might it be called something else?
[G Tablet Android Development] rothnic:
I only see that when it isn't installed, try doing it again.
[G Tablet Android Development] comhack:
Odd....I see 5 packages for Xscope in the Market. Did you run the market fix? Just search for xscope, I do not think it is case sensitive but it may be.

Nope, not case sensitive
[G Tablet Android Development] rob_z11:
I agree completely with you. I have not been able to put finger on what is causing the slowdown. Per instruction of one of the developer, I have installed autostart which allows you to kill selective programs at startup, and I thought it helped, but seems to be back to the same problem. I think lot of problem do begin with the slowdown from wake-up bug.
[G Tablet Android Development] bblackmoor:
I had applied both the Flash fix and the Market fix, but just in case, I did it again, and now I see the ZeroPunctuation video and I also see Xscope in the Market. :confused:

So... thanks!

Well glad it worked :confused::cool:

so i still haven't figured this out...but is there a way to safely unmount SDCARD2? not sure if just popping it out is safe because it gives me an error saying it wasn't safely removed.
[G Tablet Android Development] Marine6680:
Has it been mentioned that the accelerometer works correctly with this ROM?

Raging thunder 2 worked fine for me just now.
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
Raging Thunder 2 has worked in all of them I think. Raging Thunder 1 you still have to drive sideways. I'm not so sure the tablet sensor is wrong as much as most games being made to play in portrait and the games don't compensate when played in landscape.
[G Tablet Android Development] roebeet:
New Market is in the beta 4 prototype. I've actually tried it twice from a clean system, and no issues so far.

Looks like there's a 2.2.7, already? Need to test that one, if so.
[G Tablet Android Development] gotwillk:
can't wait! is there going to be a way to safely unmount sdcard2?
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
I have had the 2.2.6 version installed for a while now with no issues. Not sure what the big deal is besides it looking different. I kind of like the older one better on the tablet.
[G Tablet Android Development] roebeet:
yeah, power off. :eek:

I don't think there's any safe way, yet. Until there's a way to add to settings, and even stock doesn't have that, yet.
[G Tablet Android Development] gotwillk:
the stock gtab rom? it does have a way to unmount doesn't it? if i remembered correctly. only tried it out for about an hour or so. tnt lite does i know for sure.
[G Tablet Android Development] roebeet:
(I'm in stock, right now) -- my bad, you are correct. This must be in TnT Lite as well, but I'd have to check. It's probably specially coded in their Settings.apk.

Help! Lost the soft keyboard after install of vegan b3

Lost the soft keyboard after install of vegan beta 3. Now after it boots up fine I get this Force close error..... "The application Android keyboard (process com.android.imputmethod.latin)has stopped unexpectedly.Please try again.

Can anyone help?
[G Tablet Android Development] roebeet:
I had the same issue several times, and I guess I'm finally not the only one. It's the Gingerbread keyboard that's at fault.

I believe the Tap N' Tap keyboard is still there, correct? (I'm on a new test beta, so I'm not sure). If it is, you can remove the GB keyboard by deleting this file, in something like root explorer:

/system/app/signedkey.apk

That should allow the TnT keyboard to kick in.

Right now, I have the GB keyboard pulled from the beta 4 prototype and need to discuss with gojimi and rothnic if we should leave it out. Up until now, I thought I was the only person having this issue.
[G Tablet Android Development] tyy10002:
I had this issue when I used clockwork to backup my tnt 2.2 before I did an update to 2.4. I have no clue what caused and I followed edge's YouTube video on how to install the vegan rom from tnt. I basically followed the actual steps and it worked for me once I updated. I have been using the vegan rom for a couple of days, so far so good. A couple of wake up Sanford wifi issues, otherwise very stable. Anyway, I just got a crash when I used the gallery.

The force stop message shows up almost every few seconds. Right? And the virtual keyboard is gone. Try to clear the cache and user data..

What did you hold down, if you don't mind me asking? I've been trying to find out how to switch between keyboards easily and it sounds like you just found it. Thanks!
[G Tablet Android Development] ItsDon:
When sending a message (text / email etc) touch the area to type once and release, then touch and hold it down, you will get an "input selection" window to choose the keyboard you wish to use.
[G Tablet Android Development] gotwillk:
:D would it be possible to put this in vegan b4? really hate popping out the sdcard like that. but if it really doesn't damage anything, then its fine with me.
[G Tablet Android Development] roebeet:
I'll pass it on to the guys. This is definitely out of my skill range but perhaps gojimi or rothnic can find out what the TnT devs are doing, there.

I usually keep my microSD in so it's not something I've thought of.

So simple and yet I never noticed. Thanks!
[G Tablet Android Development] n2thecloud:
Roebeet,

As we closer to a clean baseline VEGAn V1 I propose that the team concentrate on very basic funtions and pound on the build to get stability first. That way we all can mod later.

Ex.

Leave gingerbread keyboard off

leave out new market

get flash stable

Google apps in

stock browser in

At this point the thing is so useful and I think many are just wanting stable now.

I still get black screen every few hours while browsing and there is no obvious trigger then I reboot. Seems to still have memory corruption...

Thanks for your tireless work!

2.2.7 was put out so that 480x800 devices would render properly
[G Tablet Android Development] Marine6680:
Actually, several games that use the accelerometer worked for me when I tried them. Maybe just a few are not.
[G Tablet Android Development] gotwillk:
2.2.7 for what? flash?

btw, i'm still getting gapps crashes everyone once in a while. pretty sure it has to do with syncing because when i turned it off after the 2nd crash, they stop. then when i turn it back on, it'll crash a few more times, and then its done. usually get about 5 or 6 crashes when this happens. happens at least once a day.
[G Tablet Android Development] jacindc:
2.2.7 has permanently broken my Market access. Done the fix about 10 times (never had trouble with it before), even tried to go back to 1.8.2, but I can't get Market content back.

I hope Beta 4 is coming soon, so I can just do a user data wipe once. :)

[G Tablet Android Development] deep_powder2012:
Roebeet, I found that if you (when the above fc happens) 1) switch back to the tnt keyboard 2) boot into clockwork recovery 3) essentially do the initial procedure posted in a thread here when GB first dropped (mount system and then flash the GB keyboard ZIP file that was included with that thread, unmount, reboot system) 4) Reset GB keyboard as default when the OS has loaded, then everything is rock solid - no issues whatwhatsoever. I love the GB keyboard and I'm thrilled that it can be installed this way (and apparently almost like a fix patch too). Let me know if you need it, and I'll see if I can find that thread and give you the link (I did it from memory).
[G Tablet Android Development] rob_z11:

This Rom is very smooth IMO. Quadrant of 2330 after loading. The market fix was easy to do and no problems that i see so far. Thanks for a strong rom.
[G Tablet Android Development] rcgabriel:
Okay, I suddenly started experiencing a new issue this morning. I've been running Vegan beta 3 without any real issues (other than the intermittent slowdown-on-wake) since the day it was released. When I woke up my G Tablet this morning, wifi wouldn't reconnect. I went into Settings->Wireless and saw that the wifi was stuck in a connect/disconnect loop. It would report that it was getting an IP address from the correct network, then immediately disconnect right after that, then cycle through it again. I tried sticking it in airplane mode, and then out again to force it to properly reconnect, but no love. I rebooted, and everything was fine again, connected without an issue on the first try. Use G Tablet a bit, re-sleep it.

An hour later, I wake it up again, and again the wifi connect is looping. I reboot again and it's fine.

This is new behavior. I do have wifi set to sleep when screen turns off in the Wireless->Advanced settings to save on battery life. And generally that's worked perfectly for me since installing.

Not sure if anybody else has observed this strange issue. I'll let you know if it resolves itself or not. :)
[G Tablet Android Development] Canz:
What launcher are you running? I like the blue around the house and the battery indicator... wonder if I can do that on my VEGAn using LauncherPro?
[G Tablet Android Development] P0RT3R:
I had the same issue with wifi connection cycling this morning. Three reboots of the gtab didn't fix it, but one reset of the router did. It's a Belkin, and it's a piece of crap.
[G Tablet Android Development] roebeet:
Yeah, it's not always the device. These wireless routers can be picky, as well.
[G Tablet Android Development] rcgabriel:
Yeah, I actually am connecting to my building's wifi network with my G Tablet (I also have a regular cable modem connection and my own wifi network too, but my G Tablet and my Nexus One both utterly refuse to connect to the Microsoft MN-700 router).

So it certain could be a glitch with Natural Wireless' router - they are the wifi provider in the building. I'm not too worried about it, since I've never had it happen before today.

I did however see the same issue reported in another thread with TNT Lite, so I wanted to mention it. I believe that Roebeet mentioned that TNT Lite and Vegan share wifi drivers, whereas I never saw this happen with ZPad (which has a different wifi driver as I understand).

Can I install this rom with the tablets recovery or is it a must that I install clockwork?

I have had the tablet un hacked since I got it but I like the idea of market and this rom from all the pictures I have seen and I really want to mod it but I don't want to mess up my tablet that is working perfectly (after flash install and video fix that is)
[G Tablet Android Development] bblackmoor:
I have the Vegan firmware installed (and I had the TnT Lite firmware before that), and I do not have Clockwork Mod installed. Changing firmware is one thing, but I am nervous about tinkering with something that the tablet needs to have working perfectly in order to recover from failure.
[G Tablet Android Development] Alpha06:
That's super ironic considering clockwork is the thing that saves your ass a bunch of times when things go wrong...and it's really not that hard to install. I was aprehensive myself, but twas all for naught.
[G Tablet Android Development] gotwillk:
pretty sure clockwork mod is 100% safe. people have been using it since the beginning of the whole rooting of android thingy. its just a fancier, updated version (with more options) of the built-in recovery mode inherent in all android phones.
[G Tablet Android Development] Marine6680:
This screen calibration fix I been hear tell of, where is the info located?
[G Tablet Android Development] comhack:
Create a new empty text file called "calibration.ini" on your PC.

Boot up your device, connect it via USB and copy that file to the root of the internal card.

If you use a MicroSD card, you need to also copy the calibration.ini file to the root of it as well. You could also do this on the gtablet as well. Then reboot.

[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
I don't know where the clockwork can cause problems stuff came from. I think it was just someone doing some speculation on what they thought was causing a problem. I have used clockwork pretty much from the start. Clockwork has caused me no issues, and has made life a 1000 times easier when the rom you flashed turns your tablet into a wild and crazy force closing disaster. With clockwork I can be back in business in about 3-4 minutes. If I have a rom all prettied up with all the things I like, I can make a complete backup. If I want to be daring, I can install that latest new rom without fear because if it does not work, in 3-4 minutes time I can be right back where I was..

Clockwork is not your enemy. It is a tool, a very good tool.

I would be more worried about flashing a rom without a "Good" recovery system in place then I would be about flashing clockwork...

And IF... If you were to manage to screw your tablet up installing clockwork. Which if you did I would be amazed, it can still be fixed.
[G Tablet Android Development] WhIteSidE:
That's the amazing thing about having the flash utility -- I can attest that even with the the bootloader completely fubar, it's possible to re-flash everything.
[G Tablet Android Development] rothnic:
Lets put it this way, I personally wouldn't flash any custom rom without clockwork and don't think it should be advocated for or supported.

You are more likely to get into a bad position without it. If you do have something mess up, you would then not have a backup. Therefore an external sdcard would be required to fix your device.
[G Tablet Android Development] gotwillk:
anyone have this weird issue where if the screen is off, you're able to turn the screen back on by holding down any of the capacitive buttons on the side? i had the screen turned off and i was holding that side of the tab with my right hand and my fingers happened to go over the buttons and all of a sudden the screen came back on. i'm able recreate it with every single one of the buttons. screen is off, hold down any capacitive button, wait 5-10 seconds, let go of button, screen turns on. sometimes it will happen even faster, turns on when i hold down any of the buttons for longer than a second.
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
Just tried it and it sure does... All I have to do is press them. I think it is kind of neat. Instead of having to press the power switch just press one of the buttons.

I am an advocate for clockwork recovery, though I prefer amon ra recovery on my nexus one.

That's a good question - I think the main impact is going to be the new kernel and the media apps being able to scan sdcard2, as that's something we'd like to see ported over to VEGAn. Other than that, the changes in this update really doesn't affect the VEGAn build.
[G Tablet Android Development] loztboy:
That's great!! I was totally on the fence after flashing this ROM whether I should return it or not. Don't get me wrong it's a freaking night and day difference in speed and usability. My main concern is will this tablet be able to handle honeycomb.
[G Tablet Android Development] Alpha06:
honeycomb is now apparently 2.4

with that being said, if this is true, i'm going to bet my bottom that yes, it will totally handle honeycomb. why? assuming it's true, a .* jump instead of a whole *.* jump indicates to me that it's more of an evolutionary step than a revolutionary one, so the hardware requirements shouldn't soar through the roof.

Also, let's not forget that apparently honeycomb reference units are running tegra 2's.

The app market is going to EXPLODE in March for tablet devices, assuming google releases honeycomb in February

Rejoice early!

I am kind of excited to see if the new kernel fixes any of the weird residual quirks, like the intermittent slowdowns on wake.

And I saw over the in the beta3b (ROM Manager supplement) thread that somebody was getting Quadrant scores in the 2600s with beta3b - not sure if that's a glitch in the matrix or if there are some more improvements gojimi sneaked into that new build. I'll probably try it out later, maybe even throw in the new kernel before I flash it for good measure, see if I can really screw things up.
