hi.

i already have clockwork...

if i do a nandroid backup, then do the repartition on the internal SD, and then restore the nandroid... u have any idea if it works?

or i have to install again all data from scratch?

im asking cause i got the tablet, rooted, installed the rom, spent hours installing apps and configuring... was going to make backups with titanium this morning and... it happened...

or im condemned to configure it all again?

thanks
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
It works. Just be sure to save the clockwork backup you make somewhere else before you partition. Like copy it to your pc.
[G Tablet Android Development] seymour_butts:
thanks...

im gonna try delete that sql db first...

if it still happens, im gonna do the repartition... and restore the nandroid i just did...

then i'll post the results to help someone you may encounter the same issue..

like i said before, it was a fresh install, the clean vegan rom... just installed apps and went to sleep... so no restores in the middle of the process :)

thanks all

Using clockwork .8, I first do a backup. Then I do "wipe data/factory reset." Then install the .zip from within clockwork. I have never even installed Titanium. I reinstall apps directly from the market.

Again, I appreciate the dedicaion of the G-TabDevs Team and the effort required to continually improve the g-tab, I am just letting them know that there maybe a wi-fi bug beacuse wi-fi will not autoconnect on wake. I need to open settings and manually connect each time. It did auto connect on wake until I began to install apps from the market and it will still auto connect on reboot. This is the only rom I've encounter this issue with.
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
That's kind of a weird one. Maybe try resetting your wireless router, or maybe your tablet just doesn't play nice with your wireless. I don't have the issue. My tablet just sat overnight and I tapped the power button, it woke up, and the wifi connected. Some wifi stuff just seems to not play nice..

I was getting fc the first time i tried to update clockwork mod, thought tab was done and was getting ready to box it up and take it back to office deppot. it would not boot past the boot logo. so i said what hell give it one more shot. through usb connect to lab top i put mod in root of sd card and bang i got recovery. i deleted the update zip and replaced it with beta 5.1 and renamed the file update but left the recovery folder.i than wiped date and catch and installed beta 5.1. did the market fix and every thing works no fcs no lag. my wi fi works on reboot even able to connect to both samsung cell phones i have (captivate,epic 4g). mediamp4.com works,angry birds seasons work,yahoo mail app and messenger,pulse ,twitter,skype,dolphin hd all work. face book works but will not sync with google dont know why but not really a problem. gmail twitter yahoo skype all sync. other than the missing video and music files deleted on 2sdcard i have no problems with this driod 2 rom! i will give the .nomedia a shot and only put mp4 movies on my micro sd card and put pics and music on tabs sdcard. to think i was ready to take it back when they come out with the netflex hack this tab will be over the top! the VEGAn Tab Build saved the day!
[G Tablet Android Development] elrafa_paez:
after installing the last update of viewsonic firmware, so i could return my g tablet to sears due to a stuck pixel on the screen, i try the music player and gallery and so far are very very nice, is there any way to put those 2 applications in VEGAn or something like that? the gallery does not delete jpeg files and it load them very fast, and music player is nice, much better than the one that comes on VEGAn ROMS, is just a question....viewsonic really do a nice improvement with this firmware update....BUT NO IT'S NOT VEGAn.....so anyway!! ahh i like the way the original software mange the tablet storage and the MicroSD card.....it recognizes both so yo can format them or do whatever you want!!
[G Tablet Android Development] seymour_butts:
ok.. first reports... it didnt' work.. LOL

since i cant do nothing i could not figure out how to go to the root and delete the db (maybe with adb or something), i just went to recovery and repartitioned the SD. 2048mb/0mb

then went to recovery and restored the nandroid backup i had done... rebooted and FC again...

so, this let's me thinking if something i installed caused this... the FCs are on launcerpro, titanium and rom manager... those are the errors i get

guess i will have to install and configure all again :(

partitioning SDcard means the internal memory right???? cause i noticed here, unlike on cels that we have sdcard (i supose is internal memory) and sdcard2 (my micro sd card)
[G Tablet Android Development] seymour_butts:
btw, u guys say u dont use titatium to restore apps.. so how do u guys restore the data from the apps???

or u install directly from market and the just restore the data with titanium?

i usually do this on my Desire and never had any issues
[G Tablet Android Development] thebadfrog:
I install my apps and their data from titanium and have had no problems. The devs recommend you not restore system data from titanium
[G Tablet Android Development] manfly9884:
Same here. Use TB often with no problems. The secret is to only restore apps, nothing else.

How to remove initial swipe from VEGAn-Tab boot up?

I thought I saw somewhere on this list how to remove the initial swipe from the VEGAn-Tab boot up but now I can't find it so it might have just been my imagination that it was there.

I can understand why a phone has that feature but what does it bring to the G-Tablet experience? In any event I would like to remove that feature from my gtab. Does anyone know how?
[G Tablet Android Development] xyzforum:
I have the exact problem as well. It this really a problem or not?
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
In beta 5.1 go to settings, then security. Then tell the lock screen never. Works for me. It will show up on boot and a few seconds later unlock all by itself. Some people have a need for it. Kids, friends that like to change your settings, order stuff for you that you don't want. You know, stupid stuff friends like to do.
[G Tablet Android Development] racedog:
I just installed vegan from tnt to give it a try. I also have a battery icon showing 94 percent even though I have a green light showing a full charge. It should be fully charged. Is there a fix for this that I've missed here?

[G Tablet Android Development] ckelly33:
After my 5.1 Vegan Tab has selpt for a few hours, it completely loses connection with my network and it doesn't reconnect automatically on wake-up. Is there anything I can do to reconnect automatically - or not disconnect on sleep?

I see a page back I'm not the only one - is there a fix? Is this common with B 5.1?
[G Tablet Android Development] DanielNTX:
Or from random friends/kids buying stuff in the market because you left it unlocked.
[G Tablet Android Development] nlrodrig:
hello you install movies on the external memory and erase someone can help me when I check the memory is empty with only the music videos I have not the latest beta 5 by vega.
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
It is a problem a lot of people are having. If you create a file called .nomedia and put it in the folder it may keep them from erasing. It is just a simple text file with nothing in it. Just name it .nomedia

How to remove initial swipe from VEGAn-Tab boot up?

In the Settings I have a category Location & security and in it Set up screen lock which give me Screen unlock security options of None, Pattern, PIN, and Password. If I press None (Disable screen unlock security) it stills requires me to swipe the screen on boot up. I waited 5 minutes to give it plenty of time to continue without my swiping it. And I am also running Beta 5.1.

I am not sure where to find the entry "lock screen never".
[G Tablet Android Development] gotwillk:
just use the app called No Lock.
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
That was just a generic term on my part. If you have it set to none it should work. Mine does... Only takes a couple seconds..
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
That is what I have used in every other rom until Beta5.1 With my lock screen set to never I don't need to use no lock..
[G Tablet Android Development] anlog:
I think this is more of a widespread issue. I'm having it with multiple tablets and wifi networks and rebooting both the tabs and routers doesn't make a difference.

Whether I have the tabs set to keep wifi on or turn off at screen power off, I ALWAYS have to manually reconnect to wifi networks if they have been sleeping for more than a few mins.

It's not a big deal for me. I takes me MAYBE 10 seconds to manually reconnect.

:UPDATE:

Testing one of clemsyn's updated kernels. We'll see if that fixes the issue...

:UPDATE 2:

So far no loss of wifi with clemsyn custom kernel...

:UPDATE 3:

Nevermind... WiFi finally dropped while it was sleeping. Maybe it's not a kernel issue after all...

Wifi issues

Speaking of Wifi issues anyone ever have issues with 802.1x PEAP. Trying to connect to my network at work using active directory credentials. All good with IP handed but go to browse nothing comes up but generic page cannot be displayed. Maybe I need to use a different rom than Vegan?
[G Tablet Android Development] anlog:
Might be a DNS issue. Are you able to ping other IP address on the network?
[G Tablet Android Development] BigJohn89:
I have had that same problem, though my meter has now dwindled down to 78% at max charge. It is an issue with the battery meter calibration. I have been trying different methods to re-calibrate mine, however, and have not ran into one that works yet...

I have the same issue, though it happens only quite rarely. I downloaded a WiFi toggle widget and use it to bump my WiFi off then on if the issue pops up.

[G Tablet Android Development] gotwillk:
just tried it your way. doesn't work. Set up screen lock >> None

doesn't work. uninstalled No Lock and rebooted phone and it still doesn't work. on b5.1 right now.
[G Tablet Android Development] Sprdtyf350:
Well I guess I got the rom with the optional screen lock that works:) I don't know what to say besides when I installed Beta5.1 this time I had just done a Nvflash restore all the way back to stock.. And then loaded 5.1. It works for me without No Lock...

Edit: Forgot to add that I am using Clemsons 10.9.3 kernel. Maybe that has something to do with it...
[G Tablet Android Development] ckelly33:
Will definately be getting a toggle. Sounds good. Although the last few hours, i repartitioned and cleaned house. I downloaded apps directly from martket (rather than use a batch restore). I have ZERO (0) issues currently. Evenn my video files have survived the last few reboots (they've never survuved ONE before). Using the .Nomediatrick but my apps can still scan and find them. They couldn't before.

Added in the Samsung Tab's mail app which is VERY nice.

Smooth as silk for now (knock on wood!)
[G Tablet Android Development] NCC1701-E:
Don't think it is a DNS issue as my Droid X uses the same settings and works fine with our work wifi? I am also unable to use our guest wifi the type that brings up a web based login box. The login web page does not come up and again a connection generic webpage error. I can't believe I am the only one that is having these problems. It would be nice if someone could share either way if these types of wifi securities work with Vegan or any other ROM. So love the ROM otherwise. You guys are the best.

zooming feature from zpad rom

I am considering switching to this rom, but am wondering if it has the zoom feature for old apps that the zpad roms 2.2 and lower had? if not, has anyone considered ripping that function and adding it?
[G Tablet Android Development] raggededge:
Just installed 5.1 +1 on the battery meter, went from 92% to 85% in 10 minutes of doing nothing. Tablet also locks up instead of just shutting off the screen at 10 minutes.
[G Tablet Android Development] jmdearras:
I have the lock-up issue, too. If I don't remember to push the power button to sleep the tablet, it locks up when it hits 10 minutes.
[G Tablet Android Development] raggededge:
Maybe one of the devs has an solution?

Also, I noticed on the load up screen, on the logo of the cog wheel, it looks like 2 of the teeth on the cog are stretched upwards. I don't know if the cog is supposed to turn while loading and it just glitched, but thought I'd mention it. Unless it supposed to be like that :-).

Map to micro SD?

I am trying (and failing) to set Titanium backup to use the microSD as the default location for backup. If I try /sdcard2/titaniumbackup it cannot find the folder and lists it as unavailable.

Is there a way to have Titanium backup directly to the microSD?

Thanks!
[G Tablet Android Development] blakadher:
Random Reboots

Mine does this, too. I primarily use the G-Tab as an e-reader so at first I thought it was the Nook software. I would be reading a page, not even touching the tablet and it would reboot. However, it has also happened while playing Angry Birds as well as other times when I'm not running the Nook software. I figure I'll do a partition and flash 5.1 clean on there and see if the issue continues.

My only other issues are that 9 times out of 10 a quick tap on the power button to bring it out of sleep will result in the window coming up giving all the power options (Sleep, Shutdown, Reboot, etc.) and that it sometimes takes 2 or 3 quick taps on the power button to shut the screen off.

[G Tablet Android Development] greyspacealien:
That Gtab dev screen with the cogs is not a boot animation what you see is what you get. The Gtab dev screen replaced the 2nd stock boot screen I think the stock screen was the gtablet screen or the viewsonic birds, its been so long since I hade either I can't remember.

I loaded 5.1 with the kernal patch sunday night restore all of my apps with titanum and started playing.

Every thing works just fine not lag touch screen is more reponsive, gsensor works 100%. I played with my tablet sunday night and all day and most of the evening yesterday and it seems rock solid. The only thing I had an issue with is a few of my apps that I resotred with titanium back would not update when the market said they needed an update. Uninstaling them and reinstalling them seemed to fix the issues, the 5.1 rom is the first time this issue has come up.

When I isntalled 5.1 I repartioned my system, for some reason I have better luck doing this rather than just doing a wipe of the tablet. Just make sure you have a backup because it will delete every thing on the tablet.

I really have to hand it to all the devs this 5.1 build has really bought the table to a new level. When showing it off to friend I would run into little bugs and I would have to say oh its because I'm on a beta rom, but now I can just hand it over to anyone and it just rocks!

Will going back from Vegan 5.1b to tnt-lite fix battery issue?

The battery only showing 94 percent even when the battery is fully charged really bothers me quite a bit, to the point that I am considering moving back to tnt lite 3.1.4. But, I'm wondering if that will fix the battery display or if this is really hozed permanently or until someone finds a fix.

Has anyone who has the battery display problem on Vegan flashed back to tnt lite and had it fix the battery display?

I have had google voice account for 2 years and used my cell number to set up ....it tells me it can't verify my settings so i tell it to skip and hangs untill I force close......also dont have the ability to delete google voice to try a reinstall and it is not listed in the market on my vegan tab 5.1 rom anywhere:mad:
[G Tablet Android Development] blakadher:
Does it show up in Titanium Backup? Maybe you can uninstall from there.
[G Tablet Android Development] raggededge:
Yeah, I noticed that as well, if it can be fixed, then great!
[G Tablet Android Development] BigJohn89:
My battery meter issues started when I was on TNT Lite, and then continued when I moved to Vegan. I don't believe it has anything to do with the ROM version itself, there maybe something else firmware related (outside of the realm of the ROM) that is running the battery calibration.

Are you absolutely certain that you have followed the market fix instructions to the letter? I think some people wipe data from the manage applications on settings and not from Titanium Backup and think it's the same thing. I'm not saying that's what you did, but maybe just go through the steps again.
[G Tablet Android Development] ch3vr0n5:
I am trying to perform the TSCalibration and I seem to be hitting a snag. I am unsure if it is caused by VEGAn or not so I figured I would ask. I have a 2GB microsd that I am trying to use and when I insert it into my GTab it says "Preparing SD yada yada" but upon inspection of the SD Card and Device Storage menu under settings it does not show the space added by the card, only the internal 13GB and the unmount button always says "Unmount in progress". This also happens with my 8GB from my EVO.

I am understand that the internal storage is /sdcard and external is /sdcard2, but I am not as familiar with the underlying parts of Android as I wish to be and don't know what the normal function is when you insert a memory card into an Android device that already has internal storage.

Any help would be appreciated. :)

I had the same problem until I was able to download the latest Voice from the market. Then you can skip the number install section. It works great now.
[G Tablet Android Development] bboyle:
Several have commented on this. My Tab would wake and connect to my wireless prior to 5.1. Since flashing 5.1 I have had this problem. Rebooted the router, didnt help. Tryied Clemsons 10.9.7 also.

Everything else is great. I bought the G-Tab based upon this forum working its magic to make the tablet what it should have been out of the box.
[G Tablet Android Development] nswenson:
You can change the build.prop file under /system directory so that

EXTERNAL_STORAGE_MOUNT=/mnt/sdcard2

This will make the slotted sdcard the default for application usage. You can find the steps for modifying build.prop with quick Google search.
[G Tablet Android Development] ch3vr0n5:
Thanks for the info. Is this something that is set by default from TnT or specific only to the VEGAn-Tab build? Pperhaps somehow mine got changed...

I was able to finish the TSCalibration however, because of the pointer I only had to put the file on the internal storage and it worked beautifully.

Keep up the good work everyone! :D
[G Tablet Android Development] domdoran:
Is there some trick to getting the g-sensor to work? I've flashed with this rom and the g-sensor is definitely not working in games.
[G Tablet Android Development] nswenson:
The ROM defaults to internal storage rather than sdcard2. I temporarily ran with

EXTERNAL_STORAGE_MOUNT=/mnt/sdcard2 ; however I changed it back as I need the SDCARD for another device.

By the way, if you want to make any changes to the build.prop, copy the build.prop to the root of the sdcard directory. Modify it, and then issue the following adb commands:

su

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

mv /system/build.prop /system/build.prop.bak

cd sdcard

busybox cp -R build.prop /system

chmod 644 /system/build.prop

mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

sync

reboot

I changed a couple of things on mine such as LCD dpi (changed to 140 to make the dpi higher) and davik heap memory back to 32MB. I found my device to be far more stable running with a max heap of 32MB rather than the 64MB specified in the ROM.

Here are the properties I added/changed:

ro.sf.lcd_density=140

dalvik.vm.heapsize=32m

My tablet is running great on 5.1. I know this is off topic here but I want to know strictly from other users of 5.1 -> Is Clemsyn's kernal a significant improvement over the 5.1 that already runs so well (strictly from a performance standpoint, I don't need CIFS, etc)
[G Tablet Android Development] Frankie Gaspacho:
Worked great! Thanks
[G Tablet Android Development] racedog:
I don't know where the problem is but I flashed back to tntlite a couple of hours ago and the battery display is now working normally again. Vegan is nice but I also need the added stability of tnt lite. I was also having the issue of the grab rebooting randomly.

[G Tablet Android Development] rcgabriel:
Right now, if you don't need the features, I wouldn't bother to switch. It is more up-to-date with patches, which is good in theory, but we haven't really identified any practical issues those patches solve.

Furthermore, though the performance seems good subjectively, Clemsyn's kernel benchmarks a bit lower (Quadrant average seems to be around 2300-2350 vs. 2400-2450 with the current beta 5.1 kernel).
[G Tablet Android Development] ckelly33:
The only issue that i guess i would complain about is sometimes screen responsiveness can be slow or altogether stubborn taking multiple taps (even the "hard buttons" on the tablet itself. Does the new kernal help this at all? Only other issue is wifi disconnect on wake intermittently.

Very happy with all else.
