Is it just me or does the media scanner not check the emmc for media files?

PS I have tried to search the forum but it seems that XDA search is currently broken

No hard feelings dude. The media scanner picks up all my stuff, and it's spread across emmc and the SD card
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] af974:
If you are using the vold.fstab attached to 1st post then it doesn't use emmc but external_sd folder to your sdcard.In fact with it you shouldn't be able to see your sd card in Setting/memory, though it was my problem.

See if the zip attached does help.

internal memory= Sd Card

external memory=emmc
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] brycie:
Yeah no problems that's why I thanked you for your post :). Might be the formats that are causing me problems drm'd wmv and sort sort of avi, cant remember which codec. The wmv wouldn't play in any player the avi was fine in rockplayer lite but didn't work in the video player so maybe that's why it didn't show up in list.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] brycie:
Using stock CM7 vold.fstab.

SDcard is external card and emmc is the onboard. Did try the one from first post before install but my external sdcard was nowhere to be found so wiped it all and started again.

Another strange problem with BT.. If i connect my diNovo mini to Galaxy Tab, music on Tab hangs each second.. Then it plays for 0.5 second and hangs again..And that repeats until I disconnect keyboard.. Is there any solution for such problem?

Tested on Overcome - no such issues.. Music works great.. Seems to be a problem with latest BT drivers in our CM7 port.. As first problem did not exist at the beginning of may..
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
Hmm, the HCI baud rate was dropped in latest release from 3M to 0.9M. That was part of the fix that fixed BT headsets. But maybe it is not enough bandwidth for A2DP? I'll try to up the rate and see if headsets still work. Or is it just regular music playback? If so, could you see in logcat if there are any messages when the music stops?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DemonGloom:
A2DP only. Music works without problems with tab's speaker or with normal headset.. Sorry, cannot check log now, as i'm on overcome currently.. But i'l test new build to check if it is correct.. Or if you release a small patch to test.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Airfoil:
Having a slightly strange issue.

I updated to the 6-13-2011 rom on my t-mobile tab, wiped the caches.

When I receive calls, the phone seems to answer in a muted state. I have to then press the Mute button twice in order for the other party to hear me. Any others experience this?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] k0sh:
maybe a Re-flash will help you ... no one complained about this issue before even though the updated before this
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Stevenjcarney:
Strangely, we've been having this problem with the Vibrant Nightlies. The only way to deal with it is to mute/unmute everytime.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DemonGloom:
Installed latest CM7. Booted, rebooted, waited for media scan stop.. Started music via a2dp, connected keyboard.. Works as usual.. Pressed button on keyboard - music hangs for about 2 sec.. then plays for a bit and again hangs.. that happens for about 10 sec.. After that works normally.. Until i press key again..

No wrong messages in log at that time

/system/bin/mediaserver still takes 35-40% of CPU all the time..

If i play music through headphones/speaker I have no problems..

***UPDATE***

Version from 2011-05-30 works the same way.. Trying earlier versions..

***UPDATE 2***

Cannot boot version from the beginning of May.. Just hangs at boot.. Neither normal boot nor recovery works..
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] maxtcee:
That's cause earlier versions was on froyo bootloaders
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DemonGloom:
Yeah, i thought about that.. But I'm a bit lazy to restore old bootloaders just to check it.. So no CM7 versions build on JQ1 work flawlessly with BT.. That's a pity..

GPS performance?

Hi all,

Just flashed this latest ROM on my US T-Mobile tab, and I have to say that it rocks!

One thing that seems to be flakey, however, is the GPS. I just stood outside for a few minutes and according to Chartcross GPS Test, I could only see, at most, and inconsistently, 3 sats.

What is the time-to-lock users have on this ROM?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] The Transporter:
Help gettings sources

Hello Tech,

I'm willing to learn Android OS & Rom Dev. and I'm trying to follow the steps in your first post to download and build it's own version. I would like also help the community this way too.

I'm still at the point where I need to download the sources from cyanogenmod tree.

It seems that it's downloading alot of stuff, most of it I don't need them... like the HTC and others brand's stuff.

More than that, I'm always getting that error:

error: Exited sync due to fetch errors

So, 2 questions:

Is it possible to only download the tree for SGT ?

How to avoid such errors ? (Exited sync due to fetch errors)

Thanks !
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Useless_Alias:
T-Mo tab here....I too had some difficulties with GPS..resolved mine by downloading GPS Test from Market.....clear aid data then start test....first fix may take some time but now I see maybe 8 pieces of space junk on average and fix in under a minute
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
You have to download everything. kernel.org and github.com sometimes have connection errors etc. So I see these messages to sometimes when I try to sync my tree. Usually I just keep on working on whatever I have and try syncing again on next day.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
Thanks!

Please do not mess with bootloaders. Flashing them is risky.

I have my Sony DR-BT50 A2DP headphones at work so I will try them on Tuesday with little Bluetooth keyboard I have. If the older releases have the same it probably means that HCI baud rate is not a problem because they used 3Mbit. I don't have diNovo Mini (I had one for 2 days but it was working like crap with my home theater PC and I got the little Lenovo HTPC keyboard instead).

Edit:

Can anyone else, with A2DP headphones and BT keyboard, verify whether A2DP streaming works well or not for them while using BT keyboard? Post your results with what headphones and keyboard you use.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
It must be the Seattle weather. Here in sunny California I am getting like 7 satellites outside. Even indoors I am getting several satellites at my home (and there is one floor between me and the sky).

The number of GPS satellites visible does not depend on the software, just the radio, antennas, satellitle visibility etc.

The fix time and initial rough location depends on aGPS data and cellular signal triangulation which can be improved by software.

The GPS daemon we are using is pretty decent and most people report very good results with it both on Galaxy Tab and other Aries devices.

If you were outside US, I would suggest trying changing ntp server and aGPS servers in /system/etc/gps.conf to something more approprate for your country (it could improve aGPS and fix time a little) but the settings we have are good for US.

BTW, I am using GPS Status & Toolbox by ECLIPSIM. It shows satellites that are visible and satellites that have a fix. If you can see many satellites but no fix it probably means that the reception is pretty bad at your location.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Useless_Alias:
My Nokia MD-7 bluetooth speakers have been working wonderfully. Is GPS tied in with the installed modem for its firmware? If so both Roto-2g and 3g cause me no trouble.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Jeffro64:
Just bought a stereo bluetooth headset (Motorola S10-HD) and it works great except for one problem. When receiving a call I can't answer/hang up with the headset by pushing the phone button, it brings up the voice dialer instead.:confused:

The headset works as it should on my G2x with CM7 so I wanted to post this issue just incase it is a bug and can be fixed. Or is there a setting somewhere i'm missing?

I don't have a BT keyboard Tech or I would test that out for ya.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
The headset buttons are handled by hardware independent layer so I do not think this would be button mapping. Maybe the system doesn't think the phone is ringing so instead of accepting call it opens the dialer? That would be probably a RIL or Phone-RIL interface bug and rather hard to fix (I don't understand completely how they communicate).
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Jeffro64:
Do you think it is this way with all headsets? I mean I can answer it from the tab, but if this problem is only with certain headsets I can return this one that I have. I guess that would be hard to determine without some testing with different devices. If anyone else has this problem feel free to chime in.

Thanks Tech

EDIT: Although if it's a problem as you mentioned above it most likely would affect all devices..
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Yom:
Actually, I just figured out what the issue was... even though GPS was enabled in settings, I could not see any satellites (or only one or two) until I disabled and re-enabled GPS in the notification bar...

Now I can get a lock, indoors, in 5 seconds ;)

Thanks!

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
I just tested it with my Bluetrek Metal. Phone rang, I pressed the middle button (it has 3, two for volume and 1 for picking up and hanging up) and it picked up the call, it didn't go to to dialer screen. How many buttons do you have on your headset? Some headsets also support double/single click on the button to do different things.

Can anyone else test with their headsets?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] natious:
Works with both my ps3 headsets, and cheap samsung headset, all have 4buttons on/off vol up/down and mute
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Jeffro64:
Let's see... on the left side I have 3, 2 vol and one phone. On the other side are the music buttons, >> play/pause/<<. Like I said it works as it should on my G2x, so maybe I need to take it back and try another brand if yours is working fine. That's what I was thinking is it is just something with the moto that doesn't want to work right for some reason... shame too cause I really did like this headset LOL. Thanks for taking the time to test that out.:cool:
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
Maybe it is slow switching from A2DP to HSP/HFP mode so when you press the button it is treated differently than on a pure HSP device? Let it ring couple times and try pressing the button then. I'll play with my Sony A2DP headphones on Tuesday to see how they behave.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Jeffro64:
I did try that and every other combo I could think of LOL.... I'll play with it a little more and see if I can find a way. I noticed that BlueTrek has a stereo setup, not quite the same but it would work even though I'm not really fond of wired earbuds. But if it would work I might give them a try. Plantronics has one also so I have several options.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DemonGloom:
Try to answer with play/pause button, that can do the trick..

HD Video playback?

Hi Technomancer,

Any suggestions how I can enhance playback of 720p MKVs? They only play on Moboplayer, and they are really choppy and without sound...

I have not found a way to enable Stagefright as its settings are missing from build.prop.

Screen-off CRT animation?

Hi Technomancer,

For some reason, even after I enabled the screen-off and screen-on animations in CM Settings they still don't work... the screen just fades to black when turned off...

How can I enable these?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
What do you think is missing in build.prop?

Afaik OMX settings are in /system/etc/secomxregistry

which contains this:

libOMX.SEC.AVC.Decoder.aries.so

libOMX.SEC.M4V.Decoder.aries.so

libOMX.SEC.AVC.Encoder.aries.so

libOMX.SEC.M4V.Encoder.aries.so

From here https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...ad/sec_mm/sec_omx/sec_omx_core/secomxregistry

And media_profiles.xml for the camera.

I wish I knew, I'll look into it.

Edit, that was quite easy. We need to disable this in config.xml for our device

<bool name="config_animateScreenLights">true</bool>

Otherwise it always takes precedence over that fancy animation.

If the fancy one is disabled it goes back to normal backlight animation.

Fixed in https://github.com/cm7sgt/android_d...mmit/3adcf5e2f6c233b2c5aebebf2370888fec452c83

It will be included in next release.

Update 2011-06-21

2011-06-21

Enable CRT screen off/on animation.

Add virtual flag to capacitive buttons to enable vibration when they are pressed.

Increase HCI baud rate to 3M, hopefully this will help A2DP issues with BT keyboards.

Also, Wifi module (dhd.ko) has been renamed to bcm4329.ko and the kernel sources have been rearranged to be in a single directory like in Aries kernel. That should make it much easier to kang stuff from Aries. Shouldn't make any difference for end users, so meh. ;-)

Thank you so much Technomancer! Your work on CM7 has transformed my Tab into a gadget of awesomeness.

I'm doing a side-by-side test drive of the Tab and a Nook Color, both running CM7, and your builds make the Tab the clear winner of the two. Thank you again!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] The Transporter:
Hello Tech, all,

First, thanks for the update!

I'm reading all the previous comments and I don't understand how I did not succeeded yet :(

I was using Overcome 2.0.1 and I wanted to try the new CM7 of today.

This is the steps I did to install CM7:

Download the ROM for CWM and put it in SDCARD.

Restart in recovery from Overcome

Do a backup

Do a full wipe

Flash the CM7

Reboot

The SGT boot and I see the CyanogenMOD animation like on my other phones but...

An annoying FC popup always comes and I cannot get rid of it.

It complains about 'com.broadcom.bt.app.system'.

Impossible to pass beyond it... I could not even do something else than pushing the OK button, then the popup comes again... and again... and again, all the time.

So, I restarted in recovery, tried to recover my backup, it doesn't work.

So I flashed the recovery kernel, tried to recover the backup, it seems to work now... but the SGT do not boot anymore.

Finally, I restocked it and reinstalled a new fresh install of Overcome... but I lost all my data and SMS...that's annoying...

So, 2 questions:

Is it a known error on CM7 ?

How to recover a nandroid backup ?

If you have any idea, tips or remark on something I do, please help me !

Thanks !
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] razibhasan:
You need to flash CM7 with Heimdall. Flashing from Overcome won't work, I guess. That didn't work for me. I used Heidmall and everything works perfect :).
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] zaxondis:
@razi is correct, I did find a way around though that might work for you if you feel adventurous:

After you wipe and flash CM7 using CWM from Overcome, you should reboot recovery. This will bring you into a different CWM which is compatible with CM7. Then just do wipe and install CM7 again.

This worked for me as I've switched back and forth from Overcome to CM7 just to test it out.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
Thanks, sorry I missed that. fixed in fp.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] k0sh:
@ Tech , is this update fix the video record ? thanks in advance
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] The Transporter:
Ok thanks !

I'm gonna try right now.

Have you found a way to restore a Overcome Nandroid Backup ?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] zaxondis:
To restore an overcome nandroid, first note that you should back up the backup from the internal SD to either the external SD or your computer. When you're ready to restore just be sure to the nandroid back in the "clockworkmod>backup" folder.

Using the directions from the overcome guide, install the stock safe using Odin then go into CWM wipe and restore your nandroid. That did it for me.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] The Transporter:
I just did it, word for word, and I still get the same error...

Sorry!
The application BrcmBluetoothServices (process com.broadcom.bt.app.system) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

:(
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] zaxondis:
I just tried it myself to see and it worked ok. You could try just pushing the CM7 kernel using heimdall, then going to recovery, wipe and install.

If you keep having failures though, I would definitely suggest heimdall all the way.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
There is no such process in CM7. You must be still running Overcome factoryfs.

Either

flash with heimdall, reboot, go to recovery and wipe.

or

flash the zip file from existing recovery that supports ext4. reboot, go back to recovery and wipe.

The important parts are:

- you must wipe from CM7 recovery which wipes the partitions to ext4!!!

- if you use update.zip it must be used from a recovery that supports ext4. or first flash the kernel that comes in CM7 to get the recovery you need.

During the boot process CM7 will try to detect if data, dbdata and cache partitions have been mounted correctly, if they are not mounted as ext4 they will be reformatted to ext4 and the system will reboot automatically. This means if they were RFS the install (especially using Heimdall) should be farly painless.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Yom:
Looking at Overcome's build.prop, there are entries for stagefright that, when set to true, make HD video play real smooth. I'll post the lines when I get home.

THANK YOU!!!!! This CRT animation just makes my day! Feels like this is a Buck Rogers gadget from the 60's :P
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Yom:
And talking about the camera... while I did notice that video recording is broken with the camera app (or with lgcamera), video conferencing via Tango worked just fine! I mean, I could send video out and receive as well.

Weird huh?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
Not really. Tango most likely does its own encoding of the uncompressed frame stream from the camera. The camera app tries to pipe it through media library to encode it using OMX. There is also strange size mismatch for the camera frame that the camera driver supports and the size the camera app requests.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
Weird.

I just tested on mine, using Sony DR-BT50 and el cheapo bluetooth keyboard (like this one http://www.dealextreme.com/p/mini-b...ince-nokia-symbian-s60-cellphones-black-37863) in AK Notepad and everything works just fine.

Maybe it is the DiNovo Mini. I like Logitech products but DiNovo Mini is a disaster for me. I had to return mine it sucked so bad with my HTPC.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DemonGloom:
Such a pity.. But why the hell it works great with Overcome?

(i like Logitech too, and i like this keyboard xD)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
Which music player are you using, the CM7 stock one?

Anything else running in the background that could be stealing CPU cycles? Anything that could interfere with bluetooth?

Can you try different headphones or different bluetooth keyboard?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Yom:
Funny CRT Screen-off and on animation orientation!

Hi TM,

For some reason, the CRT animations on this ROM are vertical, instead of horizontal! While most old CRTs do show an horizontal line when being powered on or off, and the animation on other devices is horizontal, I LOVE this effect! Please keep it that way!

Thanks for a kick-ass build!

PS: Any chance to get video recording working soon? That is pretty much the only thing keeping this firmware from true greatness! (Well, that and achieving smooth 720p HD MKV playback)

Thanks again!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DemonGloom:
Yes, default player. No programs, as I checked after a full wipe.

And no other headphones/keyboards that i can test :(

Root broken in latest release?

Anyone experiencing flakey root on the latest version?

Actually, it seems to me that the updater script in the ZIP is not properly formatting /system, as I removed the boot animation form the zip, then re-flashed, and the boot animation remained...
