In this, the age of instant gratification, people tend to be disappointed by anything but abnormally fast development cycles. Jeez, Mozilla has announced that both major versions 5 and 6 of FireFox will be released this year. Sorry, but it used to be that a major version change was reserved only for really drastic additions of features or functionality. Nowadays, minor bugfixes and interface tweaks prompt changes in version number and make the whole versioning process a joke.

That being said, this is (clearly labeled as) an "experimental" build and no one with any sense should plan on using it as a daily driver unless they just enjoy finding and reporting bugs to the developer. Additionally, anyone that thinks any of gojimi's projects are dead just isn't reading enough here and hasn't bothered to go to his website at all.

I use the extremely-stable VEGAnTab 5.1 beta and the latest VTL Launcher and have very few issues with all-day use. I also have no problem waiting until he releases an actual beta of the Ginger edition to try it out. I am confident it will be worth waiting for.
[G Tablet Android Development] tenet420:
I got my tab from Sears at the beginning and have flashed tons of roms and this is my daily driver. Use it with VTL, Sipdroid, CIFS, etc. etc. Pershoot and Clemsym kernals...

I kinda tweak what I need to. Rarely fc's (usually happens after my 7 year old has had it for awhile and has all sorts of things going on it, lol)

I digress...

Thanks Gojimi.
[G Tablet Android Development] ecejdt:
Fully agree. This is a very stable ROM, that I use as my daily driver. It does all i want to have in my Gtab. As all of us waiting for next release but very happy with the current performance

[G Tablet Android Development] firewater2003:
FINALLY....

My official ROM after trying some of it..

Sideloading is awesome, no more SDK-ADB configuration...

Thank you Gojimi...

Market Problem

Sorry if this posted already,

I can't see my downloaded apps in My Apps...

Is there a problem with Market Installed with the ROM?

Any fixed?

Thanks...
[G Tablet Android Development] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
Yes, that problem is well documented within this thread. Please take a moment and search/read through this thread.

TL;DR: Change your lcd density to 161. May have other repercussions with other apps, etc.
[G Tablet Android Development] hallandnash:
agree too ... the thing I don't really understand .. is what do you need? For me all the apps I want work fine, performance is good -- so I'm not sure what another version would improve for me, other than just being something new.

Now having something new is cool too .. but for me, switching roms' flashing back and forth, backup/restore just for fun is a lot of wasted time. I would be interested in the new Rom's but from what I've seen they are back to using the SDCard in the /ecmm directory and that makes backup & restore a bit of a pain.
[G Tablet Android Development] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
MaxDamage has created a nice little zip file to switch the sdcard issue back. Simply flash it right after flashing the new CM7. He has a thread in the General section with all the necessary links.

Cm7 is now stable with official support for the G-Tab and it's quite nice. The new Tablet tweaks are a nice addition, and the system is very stable. It's worth the upgrade.

Not to try and speak for GoJimi, but with the G-Tablet now getting official CM7 support, I wonder if there will even be an update to this Rom? The 'Vega' Rom tweaks that were getting inserted into stock Froyo and/or GB ROMs (the status bar buttons) are now replicated in a more generic form via CM7's Tablet Tweaks. I think the work now will be getting hardware support/performance tweaks integrated into CM source.
[G Tablet Android Development] sjmoreno:
I've been running GoJimi's VEGAn 5.1.1 since it's release and am loving it. I haven't found anything lacking in this ROM for me and my use so I can afford to wait until GoJimi gets around to releasing a version of this Ginger build that is as stable and feature-rich as the 5.1.1 FroYo version I'm running now. In the meantime I'm enjoying the sweet launcher he posted in the Apps/Themes section.

I've never been one to jump to a new ROM just because it's new. It would have to give me everything I enjoy now and give me even more before I would jump ship.
[G Tablet Android Development] ecejdt:
Hope Gojimi thiks different. I like to see him personally involve and knowing that the Rom has been proved in Gtab, and some one with "face and eyes" is suporting me and others.

Flash

I am really enjoying this ROM, and am impressed with the smooth speed, especially when surfing the web. Thank you for your work. What I do miss is Flash. Has anyone had any luck running flash with this ROM?
[G Tablet Android Development] aboad20:
Please Give me source code link to make some changes on ( Libwebcore.so )

Ok strange, Flash is working now.

Thing must have needed to settel in for a day. :D

Awsome work man. this is now my everyday rom (unless it starts acting goofy , he he)

Very Impressive.

Nice Rom Gojimi thank you. I played with it have two request if possible. I prefer the higher screen resolution like Bittrix's CM7 (I was using Density app from Market for workaround) and would like option to remove top soft buttons and prefer to use Button Savior for cleaner look and feel.

Have a great weekend!

can anyone else see their tablet on the web based market? i could on tnt, but with this rom i cant send apps for the web market?

also, i dont seem to have root permission? ive been using ghost commander for months, but on this rom i cant modify root files, read only? any way to change that?

[G Tablet Android Development] techn0crat:
I tried that to revert back to .8--- it didn't work. =/

Tried that, and it actually wiped my recovery.

No matter what I did, it would only boot normally.

SO, I used NVFlash to revert to stock---

But I can't get it to re-install clockwork mod...

as a matter of fact, I can't even get the damned thing to boot into anything but APX mode unless I use nvflash---

SO how do I get .8 recovery back on my device?

I've tried doing the update.zip from /sdcard and /sdcard2, with the respective files, neither worked--

Ive combed through the forums literally all day without finding any solution that has worked.
[G Tablet Android Development] techn0crat:
Ah yes, so why don't you tell us all how you fixed that?

roebeet's full restore method?
[G Tablet Android Development] norman505:
can you grab one from Cyanogenmod's git? shouldn't there be a branch for gtab?
[G Tablet Android Development] jhedfors:
I also had to spend a good part of the day trying to restore my soft-bricked gtab after flashing cwm3.0.0.5....

Could the original post be updated, as cwm3.0.0.5 IS NOT REQUIRED!

I was able to flash cm7 without cwm3.0.0.5 after with no problems.
[G Tablet Android Development] manfly9884:
Been running this ROM for the past two days. No issues so far. Overall, it's snappy and all my favorite apps work. Installed using older clockwork.

does the camera work in this rom?
[G Tablet Android Development] RichTJ99:
I am a little confused. I am currently running Vegan 5.1 (not 5.1.1) & I was getting ready to play around a bit more with my setup.

Is Vegan 5.1.1 & this the same? Is this more of a CM7 Gingerbread or AOSP rom?

I am just trying to figure out what to play with.
[G Tablet Android Development] gunkle:
this is gingerbread. 5.x.x is froyo
[G Tablet Android Development] pqrs:
And its yummy....:p
[G Tablet Android Development] lordmorphous:
this rom rocks!

Really fast...loving it! Can anyone tell how to get the mouse pointer to work like in CM6.1? Also when i install the tnt kb zip file i get a fc when i choose it from input method cant find an answer to either...thanks
[G Tablet Android Development] dmm5157:
I was able to flash this last night without upgradint to CWM 3.0 and got the ROM to boot up fine. I just wiped data/cache/davlik and did a factory reset, then flashed the ROM.

I installed Titanium back-up and tried to restore some of the apps I wanted to have that were missing (market, maps, gmail, etc) and they all forced-closed.

Then I saw the comment about flashing gapps rather than restoring. So I booted back into recovery mode and flashed the gapps.zip file and rebooted. My GTAB got stuck on the GTAB DEV screen and would never finish booting. I tried re-wiping all, and installing fresh, no luck.

So I flashed a recovery back to Vegan 5.1 and everything was working fine. I tried to go back to Ginger and it worked, just like it did the first time. This time, I made a back-up and then booted into recovery mode to flash gapps ... same thing happens and I am unable to get past the loading screens.

Anyone else experiencing this problem?

I really liked VEGAn-Tab Ginger, as I'm a fan of VEGAn overall. Pitty it seems I'm not able to get it to run. The other thing that's unfortunate is that it takes a lot longer to flash back and forth between these two ROMs.
[G Tablet Android Development] ssmr2t:
Id like to try this rom out.... Anyone got any screenshots yet? :)

Also, I am on CW0.8... Can I load the .zip just like any other rom? Or is there something special to it?

Thank you!
[G Tablet Android Development] johnh123:
So is this rom usable without an external sd card?
[G Tablet Android Development] gojimi:
Rob the most current experimental uploaded today has the mappings the way we are all used to.... internal is SDCard and External is SDCard2. so hopefully this fixes the issue.
[G Tablet Android Development] Pazzu510:
I was hoping a honeycomb rom but this is very promising. XD

Ill try it and post a review but all the changes made make me think it will be one of the best roms so far.

Gojimi, you just keep impressing myself!!!

First glance of the rom:

Very very very snappy and responsive. i am shoked. I would like to try a benchmark but there is a problem.

Gapps gets stuck just as it did with the bittrix rom(You are ot able to pass through the green android).

If anyone having this problem, the "fix" is the same where you tap 4 times; each in every corner, starting from right up and going clockwize. If this doesnt helps the first time, just keep touching the corners or around the android clockwizely. XD
[G Tablet Android Development] flipovich:
I just want to say great job gojimi...the 24 Feb update is incredibly responsive, fast and stable so far. I have the tegra gapps installed as well and noticed the same thing happen as on Bitrix's Ginger release, where I had to click the 4 corners after clicking the android guy. Also, not sure if you changed anything, but for some reason I was able to get Facebook directly from the market before, but now I cannot.

Either way, great job as always and thanks for the excellent update. Have a good one.
[G Tablet Android Development] Pazzu510:
Review: Very complete and snappy rom. One of the best.

I just encountered 2 bad things of it.

1. The difficulty to get a fully functional market working. Gapps>Market fix

2. Youtube is having troubles to play videos. they are very very very choppy.

Other than that, i can say that i will use this rom from now on. Very complete. responsive, quick, and i have not found any fc from what i have seen. Ill try few more apps from the market(incomplete market i got) to see the functionallity.

XD. Very good rom, thanks for all your work and the experience you give me for this, and i recomend it for everyone.
[G Tablet Android Development] pqrs:
got it running.. then noticed the market was missing, so i installed that google apps zip and now its stuck at the "welcome to gtablet touch the android to begin" but it doesnt see my touches... ive touched the hell outta that android with no luck.:p

dammit.. just installed all my apps too!

:mad: guess its time to start over...
[G Tablet Android Development] pqrs:
but it is really fast!:D

i like the new boot animation too, love this rom so far!
[G Tablet Android Development] pqrs:
so i just reinstalled vegan and that google apps zip i got in this thread and its stuck at the first welcome screen again?

how do i get google apps to work?
[G Tablet Android Development] Pazzu510:
Use this:

Do this even if you feel there is not response. ;) It will unlock itself after a few tries of meaningless taps on the screen in a clockwize manner.
[G Tablet Android Development] gunkle:
so i was in the same spot. hit the four corners of the screen about 200 times. Then i realized (read saw on youtube) that the four corners of the "screen" are under the notification bar and above the line under the android

Gotta hand it to you again man great job, I have had a few freezes and had to reboot a few times, but man this ROM looks sharp. The boot anim is awesome too..Great sign of what's to come.

UPDATE: The more you use this ROM the faster it gets, I'm REALLY liking this ROM.

got it working! had to touch the corners too many times... so far so good, still setting it up. but it seems sweet!:D

well thats weird... i had the market working perfect, it even saw all my apps. just went back and now it doesnt see any? i went to use the market enabler and now it costs money! lol.. i used it earlier tonight and it didnt want me to buy it?

another weird observation... i noticed the previous install had white wireless bars, now theyre green?
[G Tablet Android Development] roguey:
could someone upload the boot animation :)?
[G Tablet Android Development] gojimi:
here you go.... just download it and put it in the etc/media folder for most roms: http://vegantab.gojimi.com/download/bootanimation.zip

Wow the new experimental works great. Love the new boot animation. Also just now noticed that auto mount of usb thumb drive works great. Saw my 4g stick and played movies from it without any problems. Evan shows correct in storage. Keep up the great work. VEGAn ROCKS!! THANK FOR ALL THE HARD WORK.

Flash

I installed this new ROM and am pleased. Very fast. I am having trouble with flash. I installed the one from the market, and it does not work. Is there a version that works with this ROM? Does anyone have the APK? Otherwise it is great and I thank you.
[G Tablet Android Development] koreandutch:
The market app still have some issue. I have the same problem. Don't know how to get around to make it work but you can definately search for it ;)

The wireless bar shows green because that means your tab is communicating with google's server. Even my n1 wireless bar turns green.

Nice feature to have to see your device is working. :D
[G Tablet Android Development] koreandutch:
and also flash gapps right after you flashing rom.

Any trick to get sound working? Tried sound.apk fix without any luck?

Nevermind, i guess i will have to plug in headphone.

how about this script for after the rom is dl'd/built?

mkdir tmp

cd tmp

unzip ../$1

cd system/media/audio/ringtones/

mv DonMessWivIt.ogg DonMessWivIt.tmp

rm *.ogg

mv DonMessWivIt.tmp DonMessWivIt.ogg

cd ../../../../

zip -u -R $1

run it like this

nameofscript VEGAn-7-02242011-Experimental.zip

now in tmp you have a 84MB file versus 88MB.. I kept one ringtone just to be safe. :) Just saying, thats a ton of ringtones for a tablet.

My Mini Rii had trouble in Vegan 5.1, this however works perfect. I don't see a pointer mind you, but it works flawlessly. I am having some slight wifi issues of it connecting disconnecting. The docking station works with it video and audio wise. Not sure about the eithernet port. Rather then that I have to try and get the market working and flash, but its awesome. Thank you sir. Very fast! Much appreciated.

G Sensor fix

Does anybody know of a possible G Sensor fix as far as games go. All games that use G Sensor are all messed up and just keeps going to one side.

[EDIT] Also a question for Gojimi. Since this is using pershoots kernel, if I was to install his ntfs.ko module and chmod it. Will the rom automount an ntfs hard drive the same way it auto mounts a fat32 usb stick?
[G Tablet Android Development] nrage23:
Based on the first post. Does this rom now show the internal memory as /sdcard and the sdcard as /sdcard2?
[G Tablet Android Development] pimpmaneaton:
Yes it is now mnt/sdcard and mnt/sdcard2.
[G Tablet Android Development] lilsalmon:
Anyone else get stuck at the gtab devs logo splash screen?

I got it to boot once and man was it fast... then I rebooted and could never get past the splash screen.

I wiped davlik, cache etc before installing. I restored my backup for vegan, but would love to go back to this is someone has an idea of my issue.

Thanks.

Choppy Video

Everything seems to be running well for me except two items.

1-Choppy video

2-Market missing a bunch of apps.

I have seen a few comments about gapps and found this page that helped me get it installed: http://senk9.wordpress.com/2010/12/03/how-to-install-google-apps-gapps-on-your-android-device-phone/

I tried the usual market fix with no success.

As for choppy video I haven't seen anyone mention this yet.
[G Tablet Android Development] flipovich:
choppy video i haven't noticed, but the market issue definitely...can't see several apps that i normally could with the froyo roms. i even tried what i think is the latest market (2.2.17) to no avail. regardless, i am loving this rom as is and don't think our devs should burn too much time on froyo/GB roms when a tough to crack HC is in the works :-) Great job gojimi. As always I look forward to your future releases. Thanks.
[G Tablet Android Development] pqrs:
im getting a server error when i run the market, the 3d icons are missing too. the market is broken... but i HAD it working as good as ive ever seen it last night, so im wondering what i did? lol.. but the 3d stuff WAS there and so were my downloaded apps.. today my market widget cant even update, which it was doing last night. so something has changed after i installed this rom, it worked perfect for a bit.:confused:

one other thing... has anyone noticed how long it take the tab to boot with this ginger rom? my pc is faster... how can that be, i thought a solid state device would smoke an old pc at that stuff? i havnt timed it, but im guessing it takes 3 or 4 min before you can use it. far slower than any other rom ive tried in that regard, but once its up its smokin fast!

i havnt found much else to complain about! lol..

thanks gojimi, i appreciate your effort!?(hopefully youre working on honeycomb at this point!):p

I flashed with the latest "GAPPS" but they are still not showing up.

Thank you! :D
[G Tablet Android Development] gunkle:
According to the guys over in the nook color forum the market working at first is cause it is an old version and then gets an automatic update that breaks it. Seems there is a ugly fix of using a vending.APk signed with test keys which keeps it from updating
[G Tablet Android Development] gunkle:
When I added it all that as installed was the market. I had to install the rest from titanium backup and from the market
[G Tablet Android Development] ssmr2t:
Thanks!

I just downloaded the apk from the web....

For the life of me, I can not get a solid market fix going. Anyone have any recommendations for the best method? I have been doing the Clear cache, force close, google services framework thingy.... and it still wont show all apps.

Okay...apparently I have the dumb. I am flashing via cwm.08 wipe data factory reset. Wipe cache. Flash rom. Reboot. Stuck on gtabdevs screen

I know it says to get cwm3 but I see people have flashed successfully with .08. Have I missed something? All the comments make the rom sound amazing I really wanna get this working. Am I not waiting long enough for the rom to setup? I left it at the gtabs screen for 20 mins I figured it was stuck.

I also tried the stickied guide that suggests mounting system and data first and all that other stuff. Still no luck

Any suggestions welcome.

Apologies if I am missing something simple. I have the vegantab 5.1.1 on backup until I get this to work so I have flashed a rom before. Other than that my experience is all g1 and g2 lol
[G Tablet Android Development] gunkle:
Have you wiped the delvik cache?

try doing system, data, cache wiping from the mounts and storage menu

then wipe delvik from the advance menu

then make sure system data and cache are mounted (they should read. Unmount system)

then install rom then install gapps.

That is my overzealous flashing routine.

Seems to be a gingerbread issue for us bitrix rom is the same way
