Gtablet positives with 2.04

Sure, we went for 2400-2500 to 1800-1900, but:
1. Battery lasts longer (for me anyway)
2. Stone Cold Steve Austin stable
3. Youtube & G4 client apps do work a little better than with 2.0
4. USB Storage is solid again
5. PSX4Droid still performs better than with 2.0
6. Flash video and other video files still perform better
7. Wifi tether seems to be more stable
8. Angry Birds Christmas addition was release today I am sure roebeet and wlawyer are happy
Next update that allows changing bluetooth inputs so Wiimote and other devices are easy to add and use would be a biggy in my book
added:
Maybe we could hack into VS site and post an easy install 2.04 FW package for the people

Question re #2: have you experienced more FC in 2.0.4 than 2.0.2?
Needless to say I'm truly grateful for roebeet's effort; I just want to make sure I didn't do anything stupid that causes all these FC (esp when I exit an app and get back to the home screen). Keep the ROM coming!

Deusdies,
You can get it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842004
it is at the bottom of the first post on the first page. 2.1.0 is now being tested but 2.0.4 is available.

2.0.4 is old news. (one day)

Go ahead robeet... take away my thunder,

Running CM 6.1 beta4. Any reason to try this?

I've been rocking 2.0.4 for a little over a day now (just got the tablet last night), and this has been awesome. I must say I continue to be impressed with this tablet, and while initially I thought it would just be a toy I wouldn't use much, I find that it's quite neat and very functional.
I installed rockplayer on it, and have reencoded a couple movies using handbrake (open source video encoder), and the xvid and h264 videos I've reencoded (just reencoded a dvd video) play smooth as butter. Only downside is the reencoding takes a while, but I guess I need a faster PC. I must say I'm thoroughly impressed with this tablet, as well as roebeet's work and everyone else's! I'm too busy tinkering and exploring the functions of this tablet to bother with upgrading to the newer version yet. The integration with Gallery to my picasa albums is just too cool. Big thanks again to everyone!

First off, roebeet is awesome!
Give 2.0.4 a few hours and watch out...
I have been rock solid for a week and moved to 2.0.4 and all hell broke loose...
Was stable all last night on 2.0.4 and when I turn on today it went sideways...
CF after CF after CF... email completely disappeared...

New Market Update Download (Screen Shots)

Edit: (Update) Download Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9741682&postcount=56
Thanks mb2k for finding download link.
Market Fix Must be Re-done.
Android Developers have started posting photos
of the new market rolling out soon.
http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/12/android-market-client-update.html
"The Android Market engineering team has been hard at work on improving the Android Market experience for users and developers. Today, I’m pleased to announce a significant update to the Android Market client. Over the next two weeks, we’ll be rolling out a new Android Market client to all devices running Android 1.6 or higher.
This new Market client introduces important features that improve merchandising of applications, streamlines the browse-to-purchase experience, and makes it easier for developers to distribute their applications.
With a focus on improving discoverability and merchandising, we’ve introduced a new carousel on the home and category screens. Users can quickly flip through the carousel to view promoted applications and immediately go to the download page for the application they want. Developers have been very active in creating great Widgets and Live Wallpapers. To make it easier for users to find their favorites, we’re introducing two new categories for Widgets and Live Wallpapers. Applications that include Widgets and Wallpapers will be automatically added to those new categories. We’ll also be adding more categories for popular applications and games in the weeks ahead. In addition, the app details page now includes Related content, which makes it easier for users to quickly find apps of similar interest."
I think it looks great and cant wait for the update.

someone's posted the apk in a nexus one thread. i assume it can be used on the gtab.

You must Re-Do Market fix

I applied the vegan b2 update and after applying the new market update, I didn't need to apply the market fix. Not sure if the b2 resolved he market fix issue, but was pleasantly suprised.

Good find. Nice UI. Fix worked well. Wish Roebeet add this to next update.

Few questions please:
1. Which link do we use? One at very top?
2. Install via Clockwork and update.zip?
3. Does it open more of the market up, or same as current market (without the system hack using Root Explorer).
4. Will it work with TnT 2.20?

1. Yes top link
2. Yes clockwork and Select zip from sd
3. I am able to see everything in market
4. Yes it will work on TnT 2.20 if the TnT you have is TnT lite.

CAUTION: Would not download this, based on my experience with TnT 2.20:
Nice interface, but not the full market. Games like Tank Hero and other apps still do not show up.
More importantly:
Seems the graphics are broken, since stars for apps are cut off and no button options to actually update the apps.
Something is wrong with this app in relation to the Gtablet and at least TnT 2.20.
Looks like I will be restoring with clockwork, since this app appears borked as far as interface.
Did you folks actually try to update or download an app?
Update 2:
OK, the tiny cut-off line above the uninstall icon bar is what you press. Just have to be precise to press it, but it works. Press it twice.

Rush,
Not sure what you're seeing but as stated in the other post, I'm able to update just fine. (clicking "my apps" lead me to the downoads screen and my available updates show up. Just updated Eagle Nest to be sure)
The game Tank Hero appears on the search list but no app when selecting
Running Vegan b3.

On TnT 2.20, the top icon is cut-off and can not see letters, just bottom few pixel rows. Uninstall icon shows up completely. Rating stars are also cut off. Only shows half of one star for all.
Tank Hero has always been missing.
added:
The cut-off icons and missing stars bugged me. Restoring with clockwork now.

Is there a way to roll back? It doesn't work so well on TnT 2.2...would prefer for a better implementation.

I had to restore with Clockwork mod to get it back. Not sure if less extreme options. Will use this as a lesson to NOT jump so quickly again. App is semi broken with TnT 2.20.

Just about to install new market fix but then I saw your post.
Thanks for info.

I've been trying to get this to work for hours, now - only worked once, then FC's every time after. And it's not an ACLs issue. Market fix / user data wipe and market fix, doesn't matter. FC's.
I won't be rushing to get this into any build, as is just doesn't work for me (yet).

How is everyone installing this, I have had zero FC and everything is installing and updating fine. I am on tnt lite 2.2

Just FC'ing on VEGAn build, TnT Lite is A-OK (except the screen glitches).

I had no problem with the market app update on TnT Lite 2.3, although I was only able to get the basic list of market apps. The tweaks to get the 'near' full market did not work for me. Then, I performed the blackout market update, and I still wasn't able to get the full market. I had to do a full reinstall of TnT Lite 2.3 (wiped user data) in order to restore the full market.

The only issue I can see is the stars, which are all the same (TnT 2.4.0 prototype). I'm considering adding this to 2.4.0, even with that glitch - seems that the good outweighs the bad.
EDIT: Nah, gotta pull it. I can live with the stars, but the cutoff text is a real mess. Must not be setup for 1024x600 screens (yet).

video sites that don't work

Hi there,
so have the latest update from VS and downloaded and installed the flash beta from the VS website - i can watch video from Youtube and it looks good, but no Fancast or NBC - a function of flash beta or something else? what is everyone else finding?
running stock but rooted
Happy Holidays

G Tablet: Vegan beta 4 ROM
Where to start?
failblog.org
megaupload videos. This may be because of my internet speed though as it doesn't load fast enough.
I will try to edit this list with sites I know where flash does not work properly.
Other flash like chatango works but it turns ghosts(3D like or blurry).

Fancast used to work for me but after TnT upgrade is not working anymore.

It's been hit or miss with me on Fancast. It seems like the older episodes (say from last year) work fine, but the newer ones don't. That's the only pattern that I have seen to date.

Has anyone tried the Chrome Beta apk with MeDroid?

I installed a Chrome Beta apk I got from some of the other forums here at XDA, but I seem to be getting FCs every time I launch the app, was wondering if anyone got it working or if anyone has found a fix for this issue.

It requires hw acceleration. Won't work for us yet until we get that achieved.

That makes sense, I did manage to download an apk that does not FC every time, but I can't really says it's usable.
Here's hoping the CM9 team or some other dev manages to make it work someday.

I got it directly from the market and it loads but all pages are blank.

I can't download it from the market since I don't live in the US, but I get the same results as you, it loads but all pages are blank, and I can see the synced results on the omnibox but no page returns.

I have it installed. No FC's, but it doesn't work. As stated, it needs hardware acceleration. It went through the entire setup, sign in, and import of all normal information. But when you try to load anything, you stare at a blank screen.

have u try texasice' ROM, igoogle chrome beta work great with ICS AOSP

Update to 1.4.2 fixes Chrome beta so you may want to give it a go.

Flash on the Photon Q

Sorry if this has been solved before with ICS, but I'm stumped. I had a Moto Triumph before this. It had Gingerbread, and I installed CM7 onto it. Rooted, overclocked, the whole nine yards. I tried to install Flash from Play but it said it's not supported in my country (WTF, thanks, Adobe!) So I found an APK elsewhere and installed it. Bam! Flash works in Dolphin Browser. It's pretty slow, but it works.
Now, I did the same thing for my Photon Q and its preinstalled ICS. Any browser I try, including Opera Mini Next, Chrome, Firefox, Dolphin Browser and the default Android browser, I just get a blue cube icon where the flash object should be. I downloaded an app from Play that runs .SWF files and it displays the exact same blue cube.
Is there a workaround that anyone is aware of? If Adobe doesn't start supporting mobile devices, I think we'll be seeing Flash replaced before very long. By an open standard.

Officially Adobe has stopped supporting Flash via mobile going forward....but I believe you can still download/install the apk for whatever the last released version for each Android version via this link (you'll have to scroll down to where it lists 'Flash player for Android 4.0 archives' and grab the one at the top of that list in the case of the Q):
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html#main_Archived_Flash_Player_versions_for_developers

And that worked perfectly. Plays nice and smooth, too. Thanks a ton!

You're quite welcome....its not often I'm in a position to be able to help someone rather than being one of the ones asking questions but I was prepared on that one, I read that elsewhere and bookmarked it in my Photon Q folder for later use myself when I get one. I almost did this past weekend but decided to hold off still for now....then when I read in one of the other threads that Roam Control isn't (at least currently) working on it, that's kind of a deal breaker for me until that's fixed. Forcing roaming while at work is just shy of an absolute must unfortunately. :/
