If I forgot someone please let me know
Guys, we are almost done!
Take courage and be patient

. .

. .

I'm not sure whether it is a separate bug (guess it is realted to some of the listed bugs) but I think the battery useage is a bug as well.
I think the priority is medium (because it is not possible to use it as your standard phone as long as the battery is dead in a few hours or less).

. .

The light sensor does not work. This is the reason that the led from the buttons below the screen never go off

I believe power management is a high priority also.

Mine 3g working, i dont know why but im connected to 3g network. Only im changed is:
- i Dial *#*#4636#*#*
- seted to wcdma only
Please try and report here if this metod working
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
please report:
dmesg from t=0
logcat -b radio
also report if data is transfered via ppp

I would give "Battery Charge" priority High or at least Medium! It would make the phone much more usefull for me without the need to charge it over and over again in WM.

list updated!

one more bug,videos don't work on youtube and android players)

I agree that battery charge should be priority #1. After charging function finished we could use android in daily thing

Installing Angry Bird
I know its not a but but just in case it might happen so i want to list it as well.
Earlier we weren't able to download fav. angry birds on our mobile. But after dismounting the SD card we were able to install it (solve by cardsharing) but i want to know can't it be solve. i mean can't we install ANGRY BIRDS without dismounting the SD CARD coz there might be some apps to that might have same problem.

good luck with porting, im delete all posted and presented by me

Light sensor
Priority: low

p.s. are you better than a developer?

Nice thing Robin,
This will make Developers easy to know what to do first...
I think there is another bug: the cotulla's photon will work on bad SDs, but CardSharing's releases won't work on bad SDs it just create DATA about 30MBs and will stop, but cotulla's once will continue.
Thanks for all Devs, Cotulla, CardSharing, Robin, Derefas, Schlund, and others.
Thank you

[32A][6.35] Sanpei's Sense 0.4, with latest updates and fixes from my Hero Port

FOR 32A, RADIO 6.35 and SPL 1.76
CAUTION: for daily use, I feel this port are stable enough for many people. but it may not suitable for others. and it is a bit slow at sometime. I won't optimize it at current, since the speed is acceptable, and I must keep it "clean" to avoid any hidden bugs before we can get all things working properly.
plz don't touch your phone until everything have been loaded completely. I also can't suffer the speed during something are loading after boots. after everything have been loaded and use the phone for a while, I feel the speed is fine personally.
wipe and flash in recovery, and you should delete the generated files (by android) in your sd card.
Eris v0.4 & Legend V0.4[UPDATED at June, 16th] :
latest update [Jun 26]::
OC: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=349885&d=1277499752
non-OC: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=350638&d=1277631885 , under testing, plz report bugs.
though they were developed with HERO port, but I think it could be used in all my ports.
eris port is stable enough (but it is still a leaked and undone version, so maybe it has some hidden bugs.). and it is faster than legend one. but it looks rather old, and features are less. it doesn't have apps like friend stream; the browser doesn't have some functions; etc. it is for CDMA phone, so simcard operations are missed. i.e. you couldn't disable simcard contacts.
for MMS, you can use MmsZap which has been included in the ROM, set the fields (you could copy them from your APN) then press "back", MmsZap will save your settings into system automatically. after this, don't forget uninstalling it, this software isn't made very well.
works:
should be all now
HTC Sync will work with with http://www.easy-share.com/1909610034/HTCSync2.0.25.exe , thank beetleman and hanserson1 who uploaded it, thank capychimp who figured out this.
if you have troubles with your gps: shutdown with gps enabled (whether if it works or not). the gps will initialize properly when next time the phone boots. or maybe you could use the libgps.so from 0.34pre (it have other problems with some device).
download:
legend: http://www.multiupload.com/EM9MJRQKKP , thanks capychimp (as always )
eris: http://www.multiupload.com/3Z6506MF9F
caution: you must read texts below before you download it.
you could download it, if, and only if, you have become a tester of these works: kernel binaries and lib binaries which are made by me. as a tester, you do not have any rights (i.e. ownership) with these files.
certainly, you could use it as before or as using any other ROM .
if you click any download link in my posts, it means that you volunteer for testing these works, to speed up the progress of development and final release.
in this situation, you will become a tester of this ROM automatically.
if you don't want to be a tester, but you want to be a user: at current, you are not allowed to download any files from my posts. you shouldn't download them, because they are just for internal tests. please wait for a public release.

addition:
for JIT, download this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=345213&stc=1&d=1276842897
you have to set your Home Wallpaper and Lockscreen Wallpaper to something on sdcard before the first boot with JIT enabled, (and you can set them back after that: I have tried other HTC wallpapers except default). the workaround is found by klothius, thx .
if you encountered any trouble, and want it disabled, flash this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=345214&stc=1&d=1276842897

other words for rom dev:
please upgrade to .32 kernel, i have stopped my works on the .29 kernel.
the kernel someone called "eli" or "ELI" is the sanpei's one too, so if you find bugs or have some thoughts on it, plz let me know.
and you are welcome to make your own mod based on my works.
Nice work. I don't have a rooted Magic but I'm excited to see this.
Does the bluetooth problem have to do with changing the line. I've seen Cyanogen talk about this fix for some Eclair ROMs:
-n -s 115200 /dev/ttyHS0 texas 4000000 flow
to
-n -s 115200 /dev/ttyHS0 texasalt 4000000 flow
in init.sapphire.rc ?
old info:
please make sure that you have installed driver properly. adb won't work if you install Google driver as a single device driver, and if you install HTC driver as a single device driver, DiskDrive will freeze your phone (but adb works directly). a little more details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6180261&postcount=986
our phone is "USB Composite Device", and windows has this driver included. you can try install it. after that, your PC will find new devices: one for adb (both Google and HTC's drivers will work), another for USB mass storage, and others don't have drivers (I will remove them if these two devices cause troubles) .
battery tips: you should make sure that services/apps like gps/maps could get data from internet properly. they may prevent the phone going to sleep when they think that the jobs are not done yet. and in some cases, they would forget to tell our phone "you can sleep now", so the phone would never sleep properly. if you encounter these problems, the only workaround is a reboot (as far as I know).
latest changes:
--> a new ERIS port based on latest dump*
--> fix: battery drains by BT
--> fix: no sound or freezes after using camera in footprint
--> some patches from google
--> modified: DSP driver, it looks more similar to HTC's driver now (testing)
--> a far more better superuser 2.03
info about previous versions
changes 0.36pre
market fix
rosie hacks for speed
changes 0.35pre
battery life fix
changes 0.34rc
--> speed improved with blue sun fix (if it isn't my imagination )
--> camera fix for some apps
--> libgps.so from another leak
--> modules update for OpenVPN
changes:
--> .32 kernel *
--> a new libcamera.so **
--> VGA(640x480) recording
--> rndis support (USB tethering) ***
--> default DiskDrive ****
--> others
* let us check if the sleep death which caused by sdcard operations can be fixed by the new kernel
** it was made for avoiding grayscale preview and memory leaks. it may contains bugs at current, please report if you encountered one.
*** default internet sharing won't work, I have tried it with wired tether 1.2 under linux, but I don't know how to use it under windows (my windows: Windows 7 64bit)
**** it works like a charm under linux. for windows, you may have some trouble with drivers, please read the texts under "working" section.
the eris ROM contains files from the RiverRunner(or others?)'s dump, maps from brut, superuser built from ChiansDD's sources.
Q & A:
Q: what about your others work, like bug fixes of your aosp build, your kernel, the opensource progress of your kernel?
A: i have few time these days, no big steps on ROM development.
for the aosp ROM, i build some version and test them myself, but none of them are better than my last one, since I don't have time to tweak them. but if I found a big improve in the future, I will release a new one.
for the sources of kernel, i lost some key files of my modification of kernel .29, and I was working on kernel 2.6.32 when I had some little time these days. i think that i won't work on the .29 kernel again if I don't encounter big problems on .32.
so there is no sources I can post at current. and for .29 kernel, there isn't any changes after it was released. I use the same binary file in all my ROM too as you.
Q: why .32 (next release)?
A: I hope that .32 could fix most kernel and driver bugs in previous releases. if not, .32 will still be better than .29. btw, this ROM uses .29 (as same as previous) since .32 jobs are not done yet.
Q: will you update this SenseUI ROM ?
A: I think my friend ahmgsk will make a better one for you.
so when any other ROM that are good enough appear in next 2~3 days, I will stop to update. this one just shows what we could have.
my plan is, I will work on some programming and kernel jobs, and ahmgsk will make good ROMs.

not this one.
it's some other problems with HTC things. I don't know this problem exactly, hope others can figure out how to fix it.
but thank you also.
thank you so much, i will however wait for a confirm if the root feature works before flashing this ROM.
best 2.1 sense i've ever tried. you're the man sanpei! thanks a lot for the job!

can you report what works and not for you?
It's an official HTC Sense port so it should be very smooth. But there are things that are not going to work right away since it is from the Eris. So reports are appreciated.
Em ne chance that these very drivers will work with other stable eclair roms ?
Facebook+Contacts don't sync right away, I haven't figured out a way to sync it. Might have to do it manually?
I couldn't use Titanium back up, it said I didn't have root access. Installing busybox didn't work either.
No Live Wallpapers?
Pretty much it for me. I haven't tried the camera/camcorder
WiFi works though, which is great.
Thanks a lot for having a look inside whats coming :-D things not working besides those already mentioned: GPS + all Kinds of LED's besides sync works without Problems.

BT not working. can't even turn it on
LED light either? not sure on this one.
also as reported by sanpei, the preview after taking a picture appears weird but no biggie for me since the picture is correctly recorded
overall super, super, super smooth. got one freeze when flickering around settings and a sms comes in but other than that haven't got any issue in the past ... 5 hrs.
edit1: LED not lighting up even when charging.
edit2: forgot to mention that there's no Mount USB option when plugged.
Thanks for the quick work getting a 32A port of the Eris 2.1 dump.
Some noted bugs:
1.) 3G connection does NOT work for me. It shows the 3G icon but will act as if no connection is available. WiFi works, however.
2.) LED sensors not working (as said earlier)
3.) Screen issue when taking pictures with HTC Camera (also noted)
4.) When first starting up phone on first boot, when I reach HTC Setup Wizard I get a force close on android.process.media. Doesn't seem to affect anything though.
EDIT: for Issue 4, my 3G connection issue was fixed when I flashed HeroDroid's WiFi/LED Sensor fix from his Hero port (no, LED lights still don't work).
well done! i hope to see the screenshot pics
it is based off the eris dump. u can find screenshots in the eris forum, there's a lot of them and a video too
WOW you guys are fast. i smoked a spliff and came back..i see its here already
thanks im gonna try it right now..be back with some feedback
For a quick port, this is really quite good Sanpei. Now it's got me 100x more excited for what wonders ahmgsk will be able to cook up real soon..

EDIT: android.process.media got a forceclose..
I'll trying it all and post as most bug i had found
Everything works great! However, I too had a problem with 3G and WiFi after installation. But I was in a rush, so I never tried to fix it.. Turns out, it fixed itself sometime over the course of 30min.. Not sure what's up, though.

[ROM][6.35] Sanpei's HERO Sense, OCed version/almost everything like HTC official ROM

FOR 32A, RADIO 6.35 and SPL 1.76
this port only have very little modification from original official ROM, some kernel driver tweaks, camera libs replacement, our bt firmware, sensors files and root.
first boot could be not very smooth. screen may go blank, if you would encounter this problem, just wait for a while, and press some keys. when you make all your settings done, a reboot is highly recommended. I have used it daily now.

non-OC: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=350638&d=1277631885 , under testing, plz report bugs.
changes:
HTC's battery driver
a new driver extension to support default USB netshare *
a newer sanpei helper which is reimplement **
non-OC version: screen on 528/352, screen off 240/176 ***
OC version: screen on 576/384, screen off 245/176 (4.0 in Linpack with JIT)
other fixes, many error reports in aosp kernel (which version > 2.6.29) have gone, we have a clean dmesg now
ROM itself:
apply update after you flash the ROM:

you have to set your Home Wallpaper and Lockscreen Wallpaper to something on sdcard before the first boot with JIT enabled, (and you can set them back after that: I have tried other HTC wallpapers except default). the workaround is found by klothius, thx .

for Gallery3D, download this version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=338391&d=1275828997 , it could work with HTC Camera app in most HTC's ROM.
known issues and workaround:
keyboard light and some other led features : flash update plz
gps may need to boot with gps setting on, or you could try capychimp's gps files
official USB netsharing: flash update plz
if you find infinite logs about database queries which are generated by bt components, what I know is a reboot, or kill the bluetooth process
APN list shows nothing (unless your mobile operator is Chungwa in Taiwan), plz manually add your APN
* it could work under windows, but you must enable netshare in settings, and not in notification area. and you must disable netshare in settings if you want to use DiskDrive.
plz don't turn mobile network setting off when wifi is on. HTC's software will disable netsharing and uninstall the driver when you turn off mobile network.
** dev could set the button led timeout now.
just setprop sanpei.buttonlight.delay 20 (in sec) when phone is running, or set it in build.prop. plz report any issues.
*** I don't test the non-OC version myself yet, if you encountered any problem plz tell me, since it have lower frequency when you don't touch the phone.
and if the screen doesn't turn on during boot with OC version, plz press red button to close screen then press any other button to active the screen.
this issues happened once when first time I used this ROM after it was ported, though we don't have a kernel OCed that time. so I had said "first boot could be not very smooth" before. now I found that with higher CPU freq, it will happen more frequently.
so I won't support higher frequency at current. they are not so stable as I considered before. maybe you think that we could boot it with a lower frequency then use higher after boot. but I think if it have troubles when booting, it will have more troubles in heavily usage.
old changes:
some new commits to aosp kernel are included
qdsp driver changed to htc 2.6.29 version with some hacks
other little tweaks, not very important
for developers, many modules are included, you could check the modules folder. but I don't enable things like compcache by default. OC is not included, my phone is heated and I don't want to take a risk before I could have time to verify it carefully.
HTC Sync will work with with version 2.0.25, you can find it here (thank paultoan): http://www.htc.com/us/support/magic-rogers/downloads/ .
other pure ports:
you can find them here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=642125 .
legend port is a bit slow, but it have more features: the new way of select text、copy、wiki、translate and dictionary, etc.eris port may be faster then this one, and has been tested for a long time, but with old looks.
could someone test for us, if the new kernel binary and boot.img (in update.zip) could work with legend/eris ports? then we could use it to upgrade these ports too.

Welcome back Sanpei!
Great thanks to sanpei
thanks
Bug :
Footprints cam Preview no work (photo OK after shooting)
edit---
First Preview rotating, right and bottom Flicker
Second Preview rotating
looking forward to a more stable version
Nice to see you back sanpei.
Would there be any point in trying to throw your new kernel build into one of the older roms (like the legend or eris)?
@Sanpei
are you using your own kernel? cause i think bluetooth drain battery issue still exists on this rom

you should turn off bt after using it. a component of bt will prevent the phone going to sleep when bt is turned on. I will try to find a solution when I have time.
I don't want to use HTC's kernel. because they have some other bugs too. fixing bugs in HTC's kernel is less valuable than our current way. and you know, maybe we should try android 2.2 later.
so we must stay at aosp kernel and adapt it to run both AOSP and HTC's ROM. and I think these jobs could be done. all the problems are just time, time and time.
btw, it's not "my own kernel", it is the aosp kernel, I just did some repairing for our purpose
and to others:
sorry, I couldn't do works which would take a lot of time at current. but I won't stop.
sanpei, there's an ongoing effort on porting the 2.6.33 kernel to the new radio, with some work already done. Maybe you could give some help to the people doing that job

we thank you all for your effort Sanpei
but by saying "turn off bluetooth after using it" makes me quit of trying all those custom roms with this particular kernel
bluetooth, its a feature i use all the time, every day, so i personally quit flashing until problem is solved
again, thank you for your great work here

.33 is a experimental project by Google, and our device won't get benefits from the increased digit. I will only work on kernels which will be chosen by Google and other manufacturers. and sadly, for some nonsense reason, I and some people couldn't work together.

i am really sorry for that. when I was fixing the battery drains, I don't know much about the right behaviors that bt features should have. so I just leave the prevent-sleep mechanism there because I think it is necessary.
and now I don't have enough time as before. but from you and others, I know what the right behaviors are. I will try to fix it in next release, for people who use bt heavily.

yes (we should make more things could be controlled by users in the long run), but not now.
we still have some issues that are important to other users, though personally, I don't use those features heavily.
my order:
1. lights in Sense ROM for other devices and battery drains when bt is on
2. android 2.2 or big improvements in android 2.2 (port them to daily usable ROM)
3. default USB netsharing, netsharing under windows and other features like this
4. other hardware supports and features like CPU freq control.
5. some hidden bugs in aosp sources or htc drivers we used (though they don't affect anything in most cases)
hope I could get enough time end of this month and next month, then I could repair/add one or two of them.
I only referenced the .33 kernel since that's what's used on cyanogen 5 series mod, and if it could be adapted to the new radio it would be a good way for us to have CM5 with the modifications cyanogen and otheres sometimes do to the kernel. Just my 2 cents

News !!!! Kernel 1.2 2.6.36 for hc

Wifi working
Youtube full HD video working
still no sound
touchscreen wonky but working
Market Working
UPDATE SOON FOR SOUND,BLUETOOTH,TOUCHSCREEN
Update news kernel 1.2 2.6.36 for honeycomb
For those who are curious, this is what the IRC channel topic is today:
Kernel Boots, Accelerate HD Video (Tested w/ Flash in HC Browser), Wifi working, ADB working (USB needs a bit of work), Int SDcard (need proper vold mount), need work on Touchscreen, Sound (may have found out how to properly implement this as Nvidia intended).
think we can say that is very promising. A nice thing ADB is working now.

honeycomb 3,2 (vegacomb based) snapshot alpha build g tablet
Before reading any further stop!
this is an alpha build
IT IS A DEVELOPMENT BUILD
it is not finished
It has bugs, BIG bugs
it is not feature complete.
It is here to show progress.
It is not here for general consumption (hence the reason its in the laboratory!
DO NOT FLASH IT if
A) you care about your hpad
you want a perfectly functioning rom
C) you don't know what you're doing (I don't have time to correct peoples mistakes)
D) you want to "bug test" or complain, this isn't for that its a snapshot, its what I've got to so far
E) you don't use an external sdcard (as it likely won't boot, its "technical")
DO FLASH THIS if
A) you can help fix the remaining issues.
you don't care about your warranty or possible hardware damage to your hpad
C) you use an External SDCARD
D) you want to get involved with developing the kernel.
E) you know how to nvflash/nandroid etc etc etc etc
F) YOU HAVE A 1653 model, THIS HAS NOT BEEN TESTED ON A 1633, due to the different partitions etc I don't know if it will work.
If you have a 1653 I seriously recommend flashing the 1653 nvflash back up first, to get the partitions correct.
what works
LOTS
what doesn't work
LOTS MORE
inc bluetooth doesn't start at all, sound is quiet, usb only works if you plug in during the honeybee boot screen, sensors don't work (so it won't rotate).
there's a weird bug where you can't drill down through the file structure after boot. (There's a quick work around for that, turn screen off then on again).
battery doesn't show any info (charging works fine)
It doesn't reboot/shutdown gracefully... power button is OFF, don't turn it off if its doing something or you get data loss..
Most crucially it has the sleep of death (you change screen time out to something silly long like 1hour)
or there is a workaround and that is to use
echo 1 > sys/power/wake_lock
***if you don't know how to do this then this build really isn't for you to test***
I haven't included it as standard as I want to test power, that line prevents the hpad going into SUSPEND so is a bit more power hungry, its not bad though.
this is loosely based on the Vegacomb 9n build, very loosely.
a huge thank you to the work of The advent vega vegacomb team,newbe5 et al, Clever buggers the lot of them
Gtab-kerneldev team (treznorx is doing a great job on the code)
The NI adam porters, Rayman, Kushiel etc etc
my mom, my P.E teacher, the guy who held the door open on the 27th october 1992 etc etc
AGAIN
THIS IS A SNAPSHOT
A WORK IN PROGRESS
DON'T FLASH IT if YOU want to complain!
this works for me, now and here>
if it doesn't for you then I'm sorry, but I'm busy trying to make it work better, not deal with the issues you find.

Although the kernel and rom that you posted is actually for the hanspree tablet, it DOES work on a G-tablet. hardware buttons do not work atm and volume control is backwards. Flash DOES work in the browser natively! I had problems playing videos at 720p and 1080p although. It is running Android 3.2! thats another huge benefit. Another thing that I noticed is that the rom is very fast! opening and closing the app drawer seems much smoother and so does typing. I can't wait to see where .36 kernel development takes the G-tab community. And thanks to fards for releasing this "snapshot" kernel over at slatedroid. Your work as a developer will be very rewarding to the G-tablet community!
EDIT1: Using the official youtube app, I was able to watch videos in HD! Let me tell you they look great On another note, the battery indicator is broken for now.
DO NOT POST MY ROMS WITHOUT MY PERMISSION!
at the very least you could refer people to MY thread, so that they can read and understand...
this is NOT for the G-tab, it is likely to really mess up the g-tab.
Seriously I'm not joking! DO NOT
DO NOT FLASH THIS ON THE G-TAB.
There are lots of similarities between the two devices, but the Hpad is a lot closer to the ADAM board in most respects..
Power regulators are completely wrong in this kernel for the G-tab,
It could burn things out!
DO NOT FLASH THIS ON THE G-TAB
if this happens again, I won't post any more development publicly.

[ROM][Googlecode release] FINAL version 20.11.2011 r175

Hey guys,
as promised, here is our FINAL release of the Froyo Sense ROM.
Link to download:
http://code.google.com/p/photon-android/downloads/list
What's new ?
- tun.ko module for VPN Services added
- cleaned up the release
- fixed several minor bugs
- added new audio & acoustic workaround:
* Volume now fully working, in call & with headset
* fixed the Mic Echo bug
* see Status here: http://htc-linux.org/wiki/index.php?title=PhotonAcousticDevelopment
(Unfortunately didn't fix FM Radio yet, also BLUETOOTH-Audio Routing, i do not have a headset :/ )
Have Fun!
Additional installation instructions:
We recommend not to make an update!
- Give it some more minutes on first boot before you start with the installationwizard
- Restart after setup
- Use Wifi to get latest market updates
- When you are having problem's with 3G connection (APN etc) add the 3G fix from Download Section!
FAQ:
What does "FINAL" release mean?
It means that development on this froyo release with HTC sense has stopped
Why has it stopped?
Froyo is too old, has no longer official support by google and there are no new updates by HTC. Also, most of the applications are proprietary and the ROM is a native Liberty ROM, it makes no sense to continue development there.
And now?
It seems that the "Google Code Page" project will be stopped.
But don't panic! I have started developing on new android & kernel sources some weeks ago, I am also waiting for a developing workaround for nand boot, so be patient, there will be a big update within the next 2-3 weeks
Feel free to report BUGs, but don't forget that there won't be any updates on this in future!
thnx very much for your effort and time ... and good luck in your next project
i will test it .
Thank a lot for all
Thanks for the great efforts, every update is wellcomed.
Can you fix Arabic support ? there is a reported issue about it in google code.
thanks
great job dude, as always
thanks to the wonderful surprise;
look forward to the upcoming new
thank u very much i was really looking forward for this..
btw, did u fix the video problem?
Problem solved for me echo, now I can always use Android, again thanks to the developers.
out of curiosity I would like to know what was the problem with the echo - if possible, if not - no problem - greetings from me for good job
To make the answer short: several filters haven't been set in smem
Thanks for the work.
But,
Handsfree Bluetoot for the car connect but no sound
Radio FM No sound
Video player dont work
Video recorder dont work

its ok. the problem is solved.
thank you tzacapaca and best regards.
Thank you very much, Schlund, & All Developers...
The something I like to tell if i'm understand:
the devs won't work on Android 2.2 froyo anymore. and the devs will start work on newer Android versions (for ex: Gingerbread, or maybe IceCream ), and also continue project fixing bugs: like Video, Graphic.
Hope I understand Right.
anyway, I'm very Thankfully.
Nice. And the battery problem is solved?
Thank you so much devs for this great work.
thank you
thank you and other devs!
First feedback
To be honnest, I don't really feel a clear improvement, may be the OS is more fast.
But the big bug for me, is that while the phone is connected to USB for charge, the phone is very, very, very slow...
There must be a kind of process running in parallel while usb is plugged on, that slows everything.
NB: I have only test the USB charge via a PC usb port, not on sector.
Cheers.

[ROM][ICS](BETA 1)VegaICS: ICS for P10AN01(Advent Vega,POV Tegra 10.1,Viewpad 10S..)

Video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=r5NUexaC1ow
Hello guys,
www.tabletroms.com user cass has made a ICS rom for the Advent Vega.
The download and the installation stay in the discription.
All credits goes to him!!
Thanks!
You can find the build here :
VegaICS-Beta1.exe
VegaICS Beta1 MD5
=================
1a5ed3243f147c3d25c0caa1a7568862 - VegaICS-Beta1.exe
Synopsis
========
This is the first Beta build of ICS for the vega and other tabs like it.
This should now be feature complete and deserving of an upgrade from Alpha status.
This is very stable and nice to work in from my point of view, nothing i can see
as major that will prevent you having a nice experience.
Work is based on Android 4.0.3
Strangeness
===========
Wifi should work fine now, a new library and framework has been created
to enable Wifi to work properly .. However .. Wifi is slow to resume from
sleep.. you may have to toggle Wifi off/on to have it resume .. If you wait
it returns no problems.. its just a bit slow.
Not working
===========
Advanced Power menu on shutdown has some options that dont work
Reboot to recovery
Reboot to bootloader
Aeroplane mode (does not come out of it as i seen)
Ill get to fixing / removing these at a later date
Installing
==========
This Beta build is in NVflash format only, i could not be bothered yet
to create a CWM update file yet as its still to early for me to care
for that.. Just execute this in the normal fashion from windows.
Or extract it and do from linux for all you penguin lovers out there..
Recommendations
===============
Backup current files / data as this image will wipe it all
Devs
====
Cass -- VegaICS and some other stuff.
ejtagle -- Fantastic kernel work /core libs and sage like advice
Thanks
======
Paul O'Brien from Modaco for the Vega when mine went boom
Lareeth for his reboot to recovery app
Shaizer for his VegaICS splash screen
Others who provided splashscreens .. thanks too .. keep at it i may use them yet
DVTonder for his Advanced power menu code
MrDeadlocked for his fix to make DVTonders menu appear on our tabs
the3dman via MrDeadlocked for the 120dpi launcher fix
MrGuy for the info on Mic sound duplex fix
Wooshy1/Areo/scanno for the recovery image (no stale boot on most tabs)
brucelee666 for the random reboot fix, ueventd fix
Scanno for the touch recovery
The community for all the feedback and testing
Anyone else i spoke to i missed here (Sorry and a BIG THANK YOU)
Features
=======
Most of the large dirs in /system are now squashfs files, this is to save on space.
You need to use squashfs with gzip support if you are to play with them. Kernel must
also have squashfs support included.
The dir that contains WiFi firmware and kernel module has been relocated to /system/etc/misc/
this is to ensure of the minimum file size of any update we make to the kernel and provide to you.. It makes not difference as its linked back to its proper place.
tun.ko for vpn can be found in /system/etc/misc/ too, linked back to the proper place.
For all other libs you need to add, add them to /system/vendor/lib, they will be picked up.
Enjoy !!! Feedback welcome !!!

work fine for data, voice and sms will require an Android recompile to
add those features, no time to do right now, will do later once 3G is
confirmed to work, i dont have it so cant test.
Slow sound in Skype, 48khz sound should fix it .. feedback required ..
Power menu options need fixed / removed

oke nice, can you make a video of it when it runs? I can post it (if you're agree of course)
This is the news I've been waiting for
I'm quite satisfied with cm7 on my phone... but ics on the Vega is something I've been looking for the fact that someone has it booting is enough now I can stop searching and wait for a stable(ish) release
YouTube videos would be much apprieciated
Please keep going.
Awesome, been waiting on this, keep it up, thank you XD

For "alpha 1" a lot of stuff works! I imagine if we get as much work done as was on vegacomb this will turn out even better (we have the source, and LOTS of people working on ICS for all sorts of devices) honeycomb was a bit specialist, but every device is getting an ICS port, even my hero, knowledge can be shared!
Alpha2!!!!!!
http://www.tabletroms.com/forums/vega-rom-development/3817-[rom]-vegaics-alpha-2-a.html#post41382
alpha 2 works amazingly well, i cant believe its alpha still, its more than good enough to be a beta build now. next build will be worth jumping on for many users and help with bug fixing and reporting. already alpha 2 is quicker than viewcomb.

Yeah were working on that. Not an easy fix :-( apparently there is an app that workaround it.. Screenlock or similar from mktplace.
Softlocker free seems to work well, disables sleep so you don't have to reboot every time the screen goes off.

Hmm... have same wake from sleep problems on stock, but it's rare.
Will give these apps a try!
