Is Clockwork 0.8 still required? (assuming this means is 2.5.1.1-bekit-0.8)

What does the latest CWM (version 2.5.1.8) break?
[G Tablet Android Development] boosted78:
I just loaded this rom today and so far im pretty happy. Thank you for your hard work.

Things i have noticed- **after flashing to pershoots newest kernel**

USB keyboard is no longer working. ** USB keyboard works like a champ** :)

No mouse cursor **BT mouse works and cursor appears in internet browser**

Pictures/walpaper seem to have bottoms cut off.

FCs after looking at a app in the market place.
[G Tablet Android Development] cruiser771:
just wondering if anyone else is having this problem or knows of a fix. after disconnecting the USB connection from my computer, it attempts the usual media scan and half the time I get a message saying "Damaged SD Card". this is the internal storage as I dont have a second SD card in there (SD2). I then have to reboot the gtablet to get access to the storage again. ive tried reseting the storage through a widget to hopefully not have to keep rebooting but it doesnt work.
[G Tablet Android Development] pitmanr2003:
I can't get it to go past g-tabdevs screen. I had problems going from vegan 5.1 to harmony so I nflashed all back to stock. Reinstalled clockwork. 8 and harmony no issues. Tried to goto this one and it does same thing again. I went to mounts and storage and wiped system and data. As well as factory reset and cache and davlic. I am stuck. Should I mount system before I wipe
[G Tablet Android Development] thebadfrog:
Don't use anything but bekit 0.8 at this time. Everything else will give you a magic value mismatch at some point and you will have to nvflash
[G Tablet Android Development] pitmanr2003:
Ok finally got it to install. But when I install gapps its like it didn't go. It installs. But when I reboot after there is no change. I still have no market or settings
[G Tablet Android Development] pitmanr2003:
Also can't get to settings to turn wifi on. When I click settings it does nothing. Uhggg can't download new rom .
[G Tablet Android Development] diazkyubi:
hey people, i just came from vegan 2.2 to the ginger edition. when i load the gapps that was given for this rom, i cant access the market cuz its hidden. i went to my apps manager and saw the market along with the updater, but i have no way of using the market. also, my wifi seems way off, it connects but when i try to go browser or set up my google account (gmail from my titanium backup of course) it either disconnects after i hit the enter button after putting in my info, or the wife just disappears. any help with this would be awesome. i kinda thought it might be becuz of clemsyns kernel but everybody else seems to be doing well with it. im at a loss. if i cant get an answer ill just restore my 2.2 vegan backup. pm me if u have in depth tips please. btw, idk wut the deal is with gojimi but ive sent 2 messages only to get no response, is gojimi on vacation?
[G Tablet Android Development] rsfaze:
market is hidden until you connect with wifi, this threw me off once. Flash this, skip on the setup part to do your google account, turn on wifi and connect. Go back to your app drawer and market should show up.
[G Tablet Android Development] diazkyubi:
thanks but i already restored my backup, but now i have another issue, my darn backup past the vegantab boot screen. any ideas to fix? i tried wiping cache n dalvik, no dice
[G Tablet Android Development] rsfaze:
are you saying now that you did a back up it won't boot all the way up? If so which option did you use when restoring your apps?
[G Tablet Android Development] pitmanr2003:
Rom is fine until I flash gapps. Then I lose settings option. Still have no gaps after that also. I have tried everything even another download of gapps.. in what order do I have to flash all this. I have no issues with other roms. Harmony works but I really like vegan tool bar
[G Tablet Android Development] diazkyubi:
well before i flashed ginger i backed up my previous vegan rom using cwm 08 bekit. thats the back up that wouldnt boot all the way. but i finally got an internet connection and reflashed the ginger edition. connected to google and set up all my accounts n stuff, then i ran my titanium backup. then cuz maps gave me force close, i ran fix permissions, rebooted my tab now its stuck in another bootloop. wth am i doing wrong??? >< FRUSTRATING. should i clear my dalvik and cache partition and then reboot? will that help or do i need to reflash alllllllll over again and not fix permissions? HELP ME SOMEBODY PLEASE!!!
[G Tablet Android Development] daiuton:
DO BOLD LETTERS MAKE IT BETTER? Your talking about the old vegan rom? which is based off froyo, you cant restore anything from froyo, so step one, get gingy, step two, download the old fashion way, look for gapps for cm7 universal.
[G Tablet Android Development] adampdx:
I've restored apps to Gingy that had been installed on Froyo, and verse vice-a. I read somewhere in forum land to just restore apps and not system data, and that has been doing the trick. Just today, in fact, I restored Gingy installed apps to Froyo and all was well...except for Angry Birds. I had to re-install all three versions. I had a similar issue with Quadrant. Oh, how I mourn the loss of my countless hours of bird slinging...

And another thing...never in my modding experience have I had to run fix permissions. I've seen it suggested as a fix for many things, but I've never had the need. I'm not advocating not fixing permissions, I'm simply just saying. If I were you, I'd start over with a fresh ROM and then restore your apps only with Titanium.
[G Tablet Android Development] pitmanr2003:
No one can help with my problem. Can't get gapps to flash at all
[G Tablet Android Development] sjmoreno:
Gojimi, send us a ping to let us know you're alive.

Has anyone heard from Gojimi lately? I haven't seen any posts for weeks from him...
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
I don't know what the deal is. Some are fine, others have this problem. I share the same problem you have and have just given up until Ginger Edition turns Beta.
[G Tablet Android Development] rsfaze:
any kind of error message ?

he is on vacation :)
[G Tablet Android Development] gwallers:
I give up as well.. I have zero problems getting the vegan ginger to run.. But I cannot for the life of me get google apps installed. When I do it removes the settings from the rom and no gapps appear. I have tried every didnt scenario possible, and read thru every post in this thread with no luck. I give up...
[G Tablet Android Development] adampdx:
Sorry if you've already mentioned, but what Gapps are you flashing? I've noticed there are about a dozen floating around. I had luck with the Gapps package from Cyanogen. All the way at the bottom of the page you'll find the Gapps options.
[G Tablet Android Development] setsudaj:
Wow! Love this Rom. Seems far faster than vegan 5.11. Anyone know if the clemsyn kernal helps at this point?

Also I've installed other keyboards and keep getting FC. Has anyone been successful with either the tnt or ni keyboards. The swiftkey beta does work but you have to download the language packet in settings and it takes up most of the screen.
[G Tablet Android Development] pershoot:
this is already running an older version of my kernel.

you can update it to the latest revision (2.6.32.36), and any refinements/amendments that have been made since then, if you like. you can find the sticky thread in this forum.
[G Tablet Android Development] chpimentelpr:
mmm, hope to heard about him soon... can wait much longer for the Beta.
[G Tablet Android Development] biko213:
video play back won't work

I just can't get video playback mg4 3gp, it work once but now nothing no matter what player I use nothing anyone els having problem playing video?
[G Tablet Android Development] pershoot:
full acceleration is not working as of yet, so you will have an issue playing certain videos, etc.

it is being worked on in cm7.

once sorted, im sure gojimi will merge in the bits.
[G Tablet Android Development] pitmanr2003:
No. It goes just like it should.
[G Tablet Android Development] pitmanr2003:
I have tried two or three different ones. Same thing. Haven't tried that one yet
[G Tablet Android Development] adampdx:
Ohhhh I'm waiting for this day. Give me video or give me death. :D
[G Tablet Android Development] gogorman:
Market Error

So I was working just fine - even installed Pershoot's newest kernel.

Now when I enter the market I get the "Server Error - Retry, Cancel" error.

My Apps also shows no apps downloaded.

I looked earlier in the thread and found the TB method (freeze and unfreeze etc.) but is that the only way?

How do I fix it?

In addition, when I plug the USB in and the screen times out (after 5mins or whatever) the USB disconnects and I have to reboot the tablet in order to connect the USB again??? Any ideas?

(I restored back to the original install via CWM - without the Pershoot Kernel upgrade to see if that was the problem, but both problems still persists.)

Thanks.
[G Tablet Android Development] cruiser771:
I get the USB thing sometimes too, I posted earlier but didn't get an answer. It disconnects when the screen times out and sometimes I can't reconnect and get a "damaged sd" message, have to reboot

for the apps downloaded (my apps) problem, get appbrain, it will sync with your installed apps and show you if any have updates available. then just go to the market and update manually
[G Tablet Android Development] gogorman:
Thanks for the reply.

I wonder what is causing that to happen? Why does the USB disconnect when the screen turns off?

When I turn the screen back on, the USB connected screen is still there, but when I remove the USB cable it still says that a USB is connected but when I hit Turn On it just hangs and I have to reboot. Annoying to say the least.

Regarding the Market Issue, the My Apps is annoying, yes, but the biggest problem is the Server Error error box that pops up every time I use the market or try to download an app.

Anyone else any ideas about these 2 issues?
[G Tablet Android Development] pqrs:
i cant wait for an update!! ive tried others, but this is by far my fav...:D
[G Tablet Android Development] adampdx:
Also waiting. I've had to start dissecting my poor Vibrant in order to fill my need to mod.
[G Tablet Android Development] nunjabusiness:
I have abandoned the Market in favor of Amazon's App Store. :D
[G Tablet Android Development] gogorman:
I might actually do this too - the free app a day is GREAT! Today's is Sound Hound which I LOVE. Just wish I hadn't spent the $4.99 on it seeing as it's free today. Oh well.

Regarding the Market and other issues I was having, I just went back to Vegan 5 - really happy with that now. Once this becomes stable I will jump on it again.

Right - off to the Amazon App store!
[G Tablet Android Development] hallandnash:
I'd like to do that too .. if they'd let in us angry Canadians ...
[G Tablet Android Development] MicroChip:
Is that a new game where you fling Canadians across the screen with a slingshot?

MC
[G Tablet Android Development] absorbers:
I like Amazon app store too :)
[G Tablet Android Development] pr0cs:
man is it annoying.

same with the amazon cloud service stuff too.. no way I can get it to install on my SGS. (region errors)

This region ownership crap drives me nuts.
[G Tablet Android Development] fldash:
Does Amazon market contain the Google apps? Such as Gmail, etc?
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
Negative. The same way you can't get the Amazon App Store from the Google Market.

Two separate markets for proprietary apps.
[G Tablet Android Development] jjenson:
Can someone tell me what video format will work on this rom? I just can't seem to get any format to work?
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
Download rockplayer from the market.
[G Tablet Android Development] jjenson:
I have rockplayer light does the full version actually work?

I have tried: avi, mpeg, wmv

OK so rock player light works with mp4 for me but the quality isn't very good any suggestions on the full rockplayer to use? Also should I enable hardware decoding and software decoding?
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
I don't understand your post, can you play those formats, because I can play .avi fine with my lite version of rockplayer.

There is another player Seamen, I have no experience with, but it got some mixed reviews. Most of them in favor of the app playing xvid and other non-android-friendly formats.

If you are worried about ads download adfree.
[G Tablet Android Development] jjenson:
avi, mpeg, wmv will not play at all on lite version or full version.

mp4 will play on lite version only the full version will not open anything. I will try the seamens one and see if that one works for me.
[G Tablet Android Development] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
I have a CIFS share to my media server with a ton of mpeg movies. Rockplayer plays them fine. (lite version)
[G Tablet Android Development] jjenson:
YEah I am just converting everything to mp4 easier than dealing with the issue of figuring out why its not working.
[G Tablet Android Development] iTablet:
gojimi is back http://vegantab.gojimi.com/2011/03/30/back-from-vacation/ :)
[G Tablet Android Development] adampdx:
hehehe... Damn, and I'm on vacation next week. More to look forward to when I get home!
[G Tablet Android Development] sverbanic:
I am using the standard kernel that gojimi packs into this ROM and the following GAPPS version (optimized for Gingerbread?) works perfectly for me. I did the standard Wipe All before installing "gojimi's" ROM.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1007455

I seem to get the best Market results I've had on any ROM.

EDIT: To clarify, just using "tjohnson's" GAPPS from the above link, not his ROM.
[G Tablet Android Development] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
Yes, Market is very complete under this build. I'm sure that's a result of it being a CM7 base.

One problem you will note is that 'My Apps' will always show blank. Thus you will not get notified of updates. Some are using App-Brain as a way to keep up with App Updates.
[G Tablet Android Development] yzf600:
I see the empty screen on "My Apps" as well. I took your advise and installed app brain so it could see the app updates. It does, but when I click on one to update, it says it can't find it.
[G Tablet Android Development] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
I think you will have to 'Search' for it in the market one by one.

Probably going to be a pain in the butt.

I haven't been too worried about it myself. If I happen to see an update in the market, I'll apply it, otherwise I haven't been chasing it.

I noticed that Gojimi is back from vacation and might have an update this weekend. Also see that CM is cranking out some new releases. I think/hope this will be fixed soon.
[G Tablet Android Development] sverbanic:
If you modify the following line of the build.prop file under your /system folder, as follows, and complete the rest of the instructions, you should see all of your installed Apps under "My Apps" in the Google Marketplace.

1) Change "ro.sf.lcd_density=160" to "ro.sf.lcd_density=161", then reboot.

2) Perform the "Standard Market Fix":

a - Open the Market and browse around.

b - Leave Market open, go to Home Screen, then Settings -> Applications->

Manage Applications, click the "All" tab at the top of the screen.

c - Scroll down to and select "Market", click "Clear cache", then "Force Stop",

then hit the back button.

d - Scroll up to and select "Google Services Framework", click "Clear data",

then back out to the Home screen.

e - Try launching the Market. You will get an error, that's expected.

f - Reboot.

3) Download any Free program. In a few minutes all of your Apps will show up under "My Apps".

PLEASE NOTE: Changing the screen density may affect other programs, specifically some games so just be aware of the tradeoff.
[G Tablet Android Development] nitefallz:
Is there no sound from the speakers on this build? Can't seem to find anything confirming or denying other than another user asking the same question.
[G Tablet Android Development] sverbanic:
I have sound.
[G Tablet Android Development] drummr8:
I had this same problem with the G-Harmony ROM, was thinking about switching to this ROM instead....

Anyone have any idea what could cause this annoying little problem? lol

EDIT: try rebooting...
[G Tablet Android Development] TuRDMaN:
Why the heck does the screen density have to get changed in order for the apps to show up??? Weird.

Anyway, thanks for posting that, I'll try it out and see what happens!

==========

So I changed the LCD density and rebooted, and that was all I had to do to get my apps to show up in the market. Now I'll find out if it broke compatibility with anything.
[G Tablet Android Development] aznsrdabest:
Ive been having similar issues, where sound will stop working. Try going to settings and change media volume... when in doubt reboot always makes sound come back. Thats true for mosy things....
[G Tablet Android Development] brandonpavo:
Ive read people having issues with sound before.they had to plug in headphones and then remove them. I can't remember where I read it but it was gtab section.
[G Tablet Android Development] brandonpavo:
As far as my apps goes download home switcher from market.when u run it,it makes u install another lil something.then updates magically appear and you have them.this has worked for me on couple roms
[G Tablet Android Development] nitefallz:
nm, found my answer, going to try now
[G Tablet Android Development] TheRyanMC:
I am really liking this rom, but I can't get my market to work. I have used the most recent CyanogenMod gapps and it appears to work fine. Market shows up in my application list, but it is greyed out. There is no icon for it. Any ideas?
[G Tablet Android Development] sverbanic:
Maybe try this version?

GAPPS
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
I have this same exact problem, but with the contact data as well. All of a sudden the sound will just turn off and if I try to play anything with sound I will either get no noise at all or a horrible stuttering static noise. I would love a fix, but apparently it is hardware related according to the mass majority of people experiencing this issue. I would hope that a ROM would be able to fix this. However, it is not looking well.
[G Tablet Android Development] Quie2TP:
I know this is gonna sound weird, but it there anyway to get the dashboard app from the stock UI to work on this rom? I really like how that app works and that you can switch away from it like another home screen.
[G Tablet Android Development] setsudaj:
Does anyone know if its best to do a 2g/0 partition before using this rom? I tried it on my second Gtablet and the battery life seems to be better but market still has issues. I'm not sure what the real effect of repartitioning is but I did it based on forum chat on my other device. Also I'm only pulling a quadrant score of around 1900 on this Gtablet but I'm hitting 2400 on the other one, any ideas why?
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
Not for this ROM. I am running it without a partition set up and I am pulling down about 2400 on quadrant. Just remember that if you partition your SD card you will lose everything on it. It is not necessary for vegan tab 5.11 Beta. However, it has become common practice to set up that partition if you move on to Ginger edition.
[G Tablet Android Development] merdely:
This method worked for me so far. THANKS!
[G Tablet Android Development] merdely:
Following the instructions here, for two gTabs, I ended up with tablets that, when in USB storage mode, were, um, broken. I was constantly prompted to Initialize/Format the device.

Somewhere in the install procedure, the partition type for the sdcard (internal storage) switched from 0c to 83 (windows to linux).

Going into recovery and changing the partition type from 83 to 0c fixed the problem. There was no data loss. But, I'm glad I have two of these things. I f**ked up one and used the other as a model of how things should be.
[G Tablet Android Development] masterdukill:
Stuck at bird screen. Can't flash to vegan7, but can to 5.11

I flash with the vegan 7, and i'm stuck at the bird screen, won't load. Just hangs there.

Oddly enough, I can still reboot and go into the CWM to flash to vegan 5.1.1. This works fine. Any idea why i can't get the vegan 7 to load?
[G Tablet Android Development] drummr8:
Did you wipe Data and Cache in CWM before installing?
[G Tablet Android Development] masterdukill:
Yup, did the partition 2GB/0 format. also did this as mention in other post

- wipe data/factory reset

- wipe cache partition

- wipe Dalvik Cache

- wipe Battery Stats

Tried the vegan 7 again just now, and still frozen at view sonic birds :(. So i rebooted and flashed to vegan 5.1, which works. I did reformat the entire SDCARD(internal memory) so nothing is only there except the zipped roms.
[G Tablet Android Development] julesism:
fix Slingplayer/Slingbox?

I've tried this ROM (and a couple of the other GB ROMs) but the one thing keeping me away is the Slingplayer app does not work. I use VEGAn 1.0.0b5.1.1 as my daily and Slingplayer works perfectly.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears. If there is anything I can do to help get this looked at, please let me know.

If gojimi of any of the trusted devs would like access to my Slingbox and the Slingplayer android app to see if we can figure this out, let me know or shoot me a PM.
[G Tablet Android Development] TheRyanMC:
Sling works perfect in this ROM for me. I haven't had any problems. Are you using the most recent sling player from the market?

Also for those stuck on the bird screen after flashing a GB ROM. I had the same issue. To fix it I had to NVFlash back to stock. Then installed CW again. Repartitioned the SD Card, and then went straight to the GB ROMs. Since doing this I have been able to flash between the various ROMS no problem doing the typical.

Factory Wipe

Clear Cahe/Dalvick

Mount Data/System

Flash ROM

Factory Wipe

Mount Data/System

Flash GAPPS

Reboot

Before the NVFlash to stock I never got a single GB rom to load. Always had me stuck at the Bird screen.

Hope that helps.
[G Tablet Android Development] Xargon321:
How do i enable usb mode while in this rom i when i plug in my usb cable to my gtab i only get the debugging notification and not the one where i can turn on the usb transfer have to use CWM and it kinda sucks o do that
[G Tablet Android Development] thebadfrog:
Is that still a known issue in GB roms?
[G Tablet Android Development] julesism:
Brilliant... all I needed was the updated verison of the app. That was easy. Danke :)
[G Tablet Android Development] Xargon321:
it is? hmm didnt see it on the first post so maybe i missed it
[G Tablet Android Development] sverbanic:
Normally, that indicates that you don't have the correct drivers loaded on the host. I get both prompts when connected to my PC. Do you see any exclamation icons in your Device Manager?
[G Tablet Android Development] Xargon321:
i have the drivers loaded i cant switch the tablet into usb mode for file transfers
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
Have you tried another computer?
[G Tablet Android Development] Xargon321:
this is not a problem with my computer... i can use cwm to access the internal sd card via usb just fine. i can push files to it using adb but it will not let me turn one usb tranfers while the rom is running i have to use cwm to run it or use a adb prog like android commander to do it
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
I think you just answered your own question... it's the ROM. Make a backup of what you have now and reload a fresh version of the ROM and try again. If the USB problem persists (I doubt it will) you can flash back to what you currently have.
[G Tablet Android Development] julesism:
FWIW, when I tried Clemsyn's GB Ver 9 kernel, USB mounting b0rked for me. I wiped dalvik and tried pershoot's kernel and USB mounting is happy again. Try another kernel Xargon321.
